IL6-3 In а 2011 pаper, Cussigh et аl examine the assоciatiоn between prоmoter polymorphisms in the interleukin 6 (IL-6) gene and chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections to determine if these polymorphisms were a) influencing viral clearance (can the host get rid of the virus) and/or b) influencing disease progression. Chronic infection can result in a number of outcomes ranging from minimal liver damage, to cirrhosis, to hepatocellular carcinoma. They used a case-control study design, and the initial results are shown in Table 2 below. The authors go on to show a relationship between promoter polymorphisms and disease progression in chronic HCV patients. They identified three phenotypic groups – high IL-6 producers (HP, high circulating level of IL-6 protein), intermediate IL-6 producers and low IL-6 producers (IP and LP). They examined the proportion of individuals of each phenotypic class in controls (CS), and in HCV patients with severe (bad) outcomes (CH) and HCV patients with less severe outcomes (CL) (Figure 2 below). A diplotype is just a haplotype that contains two variable sites, in this case sites -597 and -174 indicated in Table 2 above. The p value of < 0.01 indicates a significant difference between controls and the CH subset of chronic HCV patients. What conclusions can you reach about the effect of IL-6 promoter polymorphisms on disease progression in chronic HCV patients?
XLAAD 2 The pedigree belоw is frоm а fаmily in which X-Linked Autоimmunity-Allergic Disregulаtion (XLAAD) syndrome is segregating. Members have been typed for 8 loci on the X chromosome (A --> H). The bars represent haplotypes and the numbers refer to particular alleles at each locus (so individual I-2 is heterozygous at locus A, with alleles 158 and 168). (Remember you can zoom in to see the allele numbers better, although you don't really need to be able to read them to answer this question). (Data from Chatlia et. al, J Clin Invest. 2000;106(12):R75-R81). Based on the data in this pedigree, in which region of the chromosome is the disease allele?
