Definitions

  • the invention relates to diagnosis of atopy or of a predisposition to atopy, and to treatment of atopic or potentially atopic individuals.
  • Atopy is a heterogeneous disorder
  • IgE immunoglobulin E
  • Fc ⁇ RI binds IgE to mucosal mast cells and plays a central role in allergy (1).
  • allergen binds to mast cell bound IgE
  • Fc ⁇ RI initiates a series of events leading to the cellular release of inflammatory
  • Atopy may be detected by positive skin prick tests of common allergens, by the presence of specific serum IgE against these allergens or by elevation of the total serum IgE. These three variables are strongly correlated with each other and with the presence of symptoms.
  • Atopy when defined as a prick skin test response to one or more common allergens, affects up to 50% of Western populations. As a result of atopy, as many as 10% of children suffer from asthma. Atopy results from complex interactions between heterogeneous genetic and environmental factors. The factors that govern the development of generalized atopic responsiveness, a characteristic of most atopies as they respond to many allergens, probably differ from those determining allergic response to any particular allergen or specific allergic symptoms.
  • CD20 is a proliferation and differentiation factor in B-lymphocyte lineage whose function is not known to be related to atopic IgE
  • the present invention provides a method of diagnosing atopy or a predisposition to atopy in an individual, which method comprises demonstrating the presence of a mutation or polymorphism in a specific
  • DNA sequence of a gene encoding the beta-subunit of the high affinity IgE receptor in the individual is provided.

  • a relevant portion is a portion which is different to the wild type sequence.
  • the method may comprise amplification of the specific DNA sequence or a relevant portion thereof.
  • amplification technique which may be used is the amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) PCR technique.
  • Another is PCR, which may be followed by probing of the amplification products with a
  • sequence-specific nucleic acid probe capable of
  • At least one primer is used which anneals to a DNA sequence comprising the mutant or variant sequence, but not to the wild type sequence.
  • sequences in exon 6 of the beta-subunit gene can be devised from the known DNA sequence, and in the case of ARMS, from the variant sequences (i) and (ii) above.
  • the method of diagnosis according to the invention may thus be performed on a DNA sample, but the invention is not limited to testing DNA.

  • Polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies may be prepared by standard techniques.

  • the two above-mentioned amino acid sequences correspond to the variant nucleic acid sequences (i) and (ii).
  • the invention also provides antibodies to the variant peptides described above, and fragments of the antibodies, the antibodies or fragments will be useful in the method of diagnosis according to the invention, to identify protein variants.
  • the invention provides, as new chemical compounds, nucleic acids comprising the sequence (i) or (ii) above or complementary DNA or RNA.

  • Probes comprising a wild type or variant oligonucleotide or a nucleic acid as described herein, linked to a signal moiety or immobilised on a surface, are also considered to be part of the invention.
  • Variant probes will be useful for identifying variant phenotypes and wild type probes can be used for control purposes.
  • the invention therefore provides diagnostic tests for functional polymorphisms within and close to the beta chain gene. These tests may be used for postnatal diagnosis of an atopic predisposition, in order to carry out preventative measures against allergen sensitisation in early childhood. The tests may also identify asthmatic or other atopic subjects who respond to particular treatment modalities. The tests may also identify individuals susceptible to industrial asthma, or to the effects of cigarette smoke and other
  • Treatments may be developed for example by testing pharmacologic compounds against cell systems (eg. monkey cos cells) containing the receptor genes. Effects of pharmacologic compounds can be tested on wild type and variant-encoded receptors, to look for compounds which eg. down-regulate the variant receptor but not the wild type receptor. High throughput screening assays will be possible. In other words, the mutant beta chain would be part of an assay to develop new drugs, or proteins to alter the receptor function . A strategy based on "antisense RNA" to block the action of the beta chain can also be envisaged.

  • Fc ⁇ RI causes release from the mast cell of cytokines, including IL-4, which are implicated in the up-regulation of mast cell and helper T-cell subtype 2 (TH2) development and of IgE production by B-lymphocytes.
  • Lung mast cells that express cell contact signals including CD40 ligand may, in the presence of IL-4, regulate local B lymphocyte IgE production independently of T lymphocytes.
  • Variants of Fc ⁇ RI- ⁇ might promote the atopic state either by enhanced release of pro-inflammatory mediators by mast cells (to cause more symptomatic disease) or by enhanced mast cell expression of IL-4 and CD40 ligand (to cause more local B lymphocyte IgE production).

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé de diagnostic de l'atopie ou d'une prédisposition à l'atopie chez un individu, et qui consiste à mettre en évidence la présence d'une mutation ou d'un polymorphisme dans une séquence d'ADN spécifique d'un gène codant la sous-unité bêta du récepteur de haute affinité de l'IgE chez l'individu. Deux variantes de séquences d'ADN liées à l'atopie sont établies comme suit: 5' GAA TTG GTA TTG ATG (numéro d'identification de séquence: 2), 5' GAA TTG GTA GTG ATG (numéro d'identification de séquence: 4), les deux commençant au niveau du nucléotide 5640 du gène de la sous-unité bêta. Pour la première fois, l'invention donne la possibilité d'identifier des individus risquant génétiquement de développer une maladie atopique.
