Abstract
Aim: To assess the relationship of the Interleukin-10 (IL-10) -1082G/A (rs1800896), -819C/T (rs1800871) and -592C/A (rs1800872) polymorphism with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) by means of meta-analysis. Methods: Published data addressing the association between polymorphism of the IL-10 with Crohn’s disease (CD) and Ulcerative colitis (UC) were selected from electronic databases. A total of 17 studies including 4132 cases and 5109 controls were included in this meta-analysis which detected whether -1082G/A, -819C/T and -592C/A polymorphism were associated with CD or UC susceptibility. Result: The IL-10 -819C/T and -519C/A variant allele observed a significant association with UC (OR 1.16, 95%CI 1.03–1.31 and OR 1.19, 95%CI 1.03–1.38) not CD while there is no significant association between -1082G/A and UC or CD. Conclusion: The IL-10 -819C/T and -592C/A polymorphisms contribute to susceptibility to UC, but IL-10 -1082G/A polymorphism neither associated with CD nor UC.
