Resumo
A hanseníase é uma doença infecciosa crônica causada pelo Mycobacterium leprae que pode se manifestar sob diferentes formas clínicas a depender da resposta imune celular do hospedeiro. Vários marcadores genéticos têm sido definidos e, devido à participação dos alelos HLA na resposta imune, estes têm sido amplamente estudados na hanseníase. O HLA-DP constitui uma das moléculas clássicas de classe II, com poucos estudos em hanseníase. O objetivo deste trabalho foi conduzir um estudo de associação genética de base populacional em hanseníase para os genes HLA-DPA1 e HLA-DPB1 com duas amostras caso-controle: a primeira de Rondonópolis-MT, uma região hiperendêmica para hanseníase, e a segunda do Estado de São Paulo, uma região com índices epidemiológicos controlados. Foram realizados estudos com 9 tag SNPs na região dos genes HLA-DPA1 e HLA-DPB1 na população de Rondonópolis–MT (411 casos e 357 controles). O SNP rs9277341 que apresentou dados de associação com significância estatística após a correção de Bonferroni foi então testado na população de São Paulo (570 casos e 380 controles). Para avaliar o efeito funcional deste marcador foi determinada estudoa produção das citocinas IL-10 e TNF após estímulo com antígeno sonicado de M. leprae em 21 controles saudáveis. Na população de Rondonópolis-MT foi realizada a tipificação dos alelos HLA-DPA1* e HLA-DPB1* através da técnica de PCR-SSO empregando-se o kit Labtype-SSO (One Lambda, CA, USA). Os resultados de genotipagem mostraram associação com hanseníase per se para o marcador rs9377341 do gene HLA-DPA1 e dois marcadores do gene HLA-DPB1 (rs1431402 e rs9277469). Associações de proteção para a forma multibacilar da hanseníase foram encontradas para os marcadores rs9277341 e rs2301220 do gene HLA-DPA1 e para o marcador rs31350221 do gene HLA-DPB1. O SNP rs9277341, com dados significativos após a correção de Bonferroni e testado na população do Estado de São Paulo, não apresentou associação com hanseníase. A avaliação funcional mostrou que os carreadores do alelo G do rs9277341 apresentaram níveis maiores de IL-10 e TNF. Na tipificação dos alelos HLA, o alelo HLA-DPB1*03 foi associado à hanseníase per se e o genótipo HLA-DPB1*02/03 foi associado à hanseníase per se e à proteção para a forma MB. Esses dados sugerem a participação dos genes HLA-DPA1 e HLA-DPB1 nos desfechos da hanseníase.
Leprosy, a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, displays different clinical manifestations depending on the immune response of the host. Several genetic markers have been defined and due to the involvement of the HLA alleles in the immune response they were extensively studied in leprosy. However, HLA-DP is a classical class II molecule with few studies on leprosy. The objective of this study was to conduct a population-based genetic association study in leprosy for the HLA-DPA1 and HLA-DPB1 genes with two case-control samples: the first from Rondonópolis - Mato Grosso (MT), a hyperendemic region in leprosy and the second from the state of São Paulo, a region with controlled epidemiological indices. Studies were carried out with 9 Tag Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) in HLA-DPA and HLA-DPB genes in the population from Rondonópolis – MT (411 cases and 357 controls). The SNP rs9277341 who presented association data with statist significance after the Bonferroni correction was tested in the São Paulo population (570 cases and 380 controls). To evaluate the functional effect of this marker was carried a study of the production of IL-10 and TNF cytokines after stimulation with the sonicated antigen of M. leprae in 21 healthy controls. In the Rondonópolis populations was performed the HLA-DPA1* and HLA-DPB1* allele typing by Sequence-Specific Oligonucleotide – Polymerase Chain Reaction (SSO- PCR) using the Labtype-SSO kit (One Lambda, CA, USA). The genotyping results showed association with leprosy per se for the SNP rs9277341 in the HLA-DPA1 gene and two markers in the HLA-DPB1 gene (rs1431402 and rs9277469).The protections associations for the multibacilar form the leprosy was found for the markers rs9277341 and rs2301220 in the HLA-DPA1 gene and the marker rs 31350221 in the HLA-DPB1 gene. The rs9277341 with significatif datas after the Bonferroni correction and tested in the São Paulo state showed no association with leprosy. The functional study showed significantly increased IL-10 and TNF levels in G carriers. HLA typing analysis the HLA-DPB1*03 allele was associated with leprosy per se and the HLA-DPB1*02/03 genotype was associated with leprosy per se and the protection with MB form. These data suggest an association of HLA-DPA1 and HLA-DPB1 genes with leprosy.
