Resumo
Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) molecule is expressed on T-lymphocyte membrane and negatively influences the antigen-presenting process. Reduced expression of CTLA-4 due to gene polymorphisms is associated with increased risk of autoimmune disorders, whose physiopathology is similar to that of post-transfusion red blood cell (RBC) alloimmunization. Our goal was to evaluate if polymorphisms of CTLA-4 gene that affect protein expression are associated with RBC alloimmunization. This was a case-control study in which 134 sickle cell disease (SCD) patients and 253 non-SCD patients were included. All patients were genotyped for the polymorphisms 49A/G and -318C/T of CTLA-4 gene. The genotype frequency of -318C/T differed significantly between alloimmunized and nonalloimmunized SCD patients, irrespective of clinical confounders (p=.016). SCD patients heterozygous for -318T allele presented higher risk of alloantibody development (OR: 5.4, CI: 1.15-25.6). In conclusion, the polymorphism -318C/T of CTLA-4 gene is associated with RBC alloimmunization among SCD patients. This highlights the role played by CTLA-4 on post-transfusion alloantibody development.
