AbstractThe aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between cluster of differentiation 86 (CD86) gene rs1129055 and rs2715267 single nucleotide polymorphisms and sepsis susceptibility.One hundred twenty-five sepsis patients and 120 healthy controls were enrolled in this case-control study. CD86 polymorphisms rs1129055 and rs2715267 were genotyped through polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism approach. Chi-square test was used to analyze differences in genotype and allele frequencies of the 2 polymorphisms between case and control groups. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to present the association strength of the polymorphisms with sepsis susceptibility.AA genotype and A allele frequencies of CD86 rs1129055 were significantly lower in sepsis patients than in healthy controls (P < .05), revealing their significant associations with decreased disease susceptibility (OR = 0.351, 95% CI = 0.169-0.728; OR = 0.593, 95% CI = 0.415-0.847). Nevertheless, rs2715267 had no significant association with sepsis susceptibility (P > .05).AA genotype and A allele of CD86 polymorphism rs1129055 might be correlated with decreased sepsis susceptibility in Chinese Han population, but not rs2715267. Further study should be performed to verify our findings.
