Abstract

Allergic diseases (AD) are common diseases of multifactorial nature. MicroRNAs play an important role in the AD pathogenesis by regulating the expression of inflammation and immune response-related genes and therefore appear to a promising marker of AD. The selection of gene polymorphisms was based on a thorough analysis of more than 6000 miRNA binding sites polymorphisms in genes involved in AD pathogenesis found in the miRNASNP and MIRDB databases. The aim of the study was the association analysis of polymorphisms in microRNA target sites of IKZF3 (rs907091), HLA-G (rs1063320) and VDR (rs739837) genes with upper respiratory tract AD in individuals of different ethnicity. The rs907091*T allele was associated with asthma and asthma with combined allergic rhinitis (AR) in Russians. The rs1063320*CC genotype was associated with asthma with combined AR in Russians, while the rs1063320*GC genotype was associated with asthma in Tatars. The results of the study suggest a definite role of IKZF3 and HLA-G genes in the AD pathogenesis.
