  • Gene polymorphisms of cytokines and their receptors are attractive candidates as genetic factors in the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases and have been reported to be associated with disease susceptibility to autoimmune, inflammatory and infectious diseases. IL-29 is one of important candidate genes for complex trait of genetic diseases but there is no published survey of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene. In this study, for the first time, we have examined the full genomic sequence of IL-29 including the promoter regions to identify SNPs. We examined the frequencies of genotypes and alleles at the SNP site of IL-29 in allergic rhinitis patients and non-allergic rhinitis controls using the direct sequencing method to determine whether this IL-29 SNP is associated with allergic rhinitis in Korean population. We identified one novel SNP (1184C>A) in the intron 2 and one novel variation site (-1842_-1841dupGA) in the promoter region of human IL-29 gene. The P values of SNP or variation site were not significant between the healthy controls and allergic rhinitis patients. Our results suggest that the 1184C>A polymorphism and -1842_-1841dupGA variation site in human IL-29 gene were not associated to allergic rhinitis.

  • 환경성질환은 19세기 이후 산업화 등으로 인한 특정 물질 등으로 인한 오염이 집중, 심화되면서 그 악영향에 대한 관심 및 중요성이 더욱 커지고 있는 실정이다. 대표적인 환경성질환인 아토피피부염, 알레르기비염, 천식 등 알레르기질환이 지속적으로 증가하는 추세이며, 특히 면역력이 약한 어린이, 청소년 및 노인층을 중심으로 꾸준히 발생하고 있어, 이에 대한 예방관리에 더욱 더 많은 관심을 기울일 필요가 있다.

  • The main goal of this study to find out the relationship between the volume of tap water usage and the prevalence of environmental diseases and thus derive a conclusion that environmental diseases such as atopic dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, and asthma are subject to spatial factors. The results of this study are summarized as follows: First, the more the household consumes more tap water the higher the instance of atopic dermatitis; second, the number of allergic rhinitis patients increases as the volume of wastewater rises in an area; and finally, the number of asthma patients is not influenced by any of the variables including household water usage volume, industrial water usage volume, and wastewater output volume. This study has proven statistically that water usage volume is closely related to environmental diseases, in particular, to atopic dermatitis, which the authors believe will be used as important basis.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine the dietary behavior of adolescents and to determine the association with allergic diseases according to dietary behavior. The data were obtained from the 15th Korea Youth Risk Behavior Survey 2019. Complex-sample descriptive statistics and the chi-square test were used for data analysis in SPSS. Adolescents diagnosed with asthma had a relationship with frequency of breakfast, fruit, soda, energy drink, sweet drink, fast food, vegetable and convenience store eating experience. Adolescents diagnosed with allergic rhinitis were associated with frequency of breakfast, fruit, soda, sweet drinks, vegetables, and milk. Adolescents diagnosed with atopic dermatitis were associated with soda, vegetables, milk, and convenience store eating experiences. Therefore, in the case of adolescents with allergic diseases, it is necessary to educate them on correct dietary behavior so that they can have correct habits.
