Upon ligand binding, NKG2D mediates activatory and co-stimulatory signals to NK cells and activated CD4+ T cells, respectively. Polymorphisms in NKG2D predispose to infectious diseases, cancer, transplantation and autoimmune disorders. We studied the influence of this NK receptor polymorphism on predisposition to and modification of the disease phenotype in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Eight different single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the NKG2 gene were genotyped in 236 patients with RA and 187 controls using Taqman 5' nuclease assays. NKG2D genotype\/allele frequency did not differ between patients and controls. Subgroup analysis showed that the frequency of A allele of NKG2D9 and T allele of NKG2D10 was significantly higher in patients with deformities (a marker of severe disease) [11 versus 5%, Pc\u2009=\u20090\u00b703, odds ratio (OR)\u2009=\u20092\u00b744, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1\u00b709-5\u00b798 and 10 versus 4%, Pc\u2009=\u20090\u00b704, OR\u2009=\u20092\u00b745, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091\u00b705-6\u00b739, respectively], while the frequency of alleles G of NKG2D9 and A of NKG2D10 was greater in patients without deformities (Pc\u2009=\u20090\u00b703, OR\u2009=\u20090\u00b741, 95% CI\u2009=\u20090\u00b717-0\u00b791 and Pc\u2009=\u20090\u00b704, OR\u2009=\u20090\u00b741, 95% CI\u2009=\u20090\u00b716-0\u00b796). Similar trends of association were observed with deforming phenotype of RA in female patients and deforming young onset RA subgroups. Haplotype analysis revealed that the frequency of haplotype G-C-A-G-A-T-C-C was higher in patients than in controls (12 versus 8%, P\u2009=\u20090\u00b704, OR\u2009=\u20091\u00b761, 95% CI\u2009=\u20091\u00b701-2\u00b755), suggesting that it may predispose to RA. Our study suggests that the NKG2D gene polymorphisms may modify the risk of development and severity of RA.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/cei.12891","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,26]],"date-time":"2016-10-26T15:32:43Z","timestamp":1477495963000},"page":"369-375","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":29,"title":["Association
