“…The serum levels of IL-1ra were markedly higher in primary SS patients than in controls, while the salivary levels were decreased [72]. TGF-b, which stimulates the IL-1ra production by monocytes, was strongly correlated with IL-1ra serum levels.…”

“…TGF-b, which stimulates the IL-1ra production by monocytes, was strongly correlated with IL-1ra serum levels. The IL1RN*2 allele has been suggested as a marker for more severe forms of SS [72]. TNF Mutational analysis of the 5 H -untranslated region (UTR) and 3 H -UTR of the mouse TNF-a gene reveals a marked degree of polymorphism.…”

“…The SNP rs419598 (IL1RA ϩ2018) is associated with several chronic inflammatory conditions including Sjögren's syndrome, alopecia areata, and atherosclerosis (30)(31)(32). It is also associated with pathologies of bone and joints, including osteoporotic fracture (33), and with susceptibility to RA (34,35).…”

“…Further studies will be necessary to clarify the role of this polymorphism in breast cancer, especially its influence on systemic and local production of IL-1ra since we have previously found that IL-1RN * 2 allele accentuates the differential IL-1ra expression in blood and at the inflammatory site [46].…”
