COVID-19 research v1.34 IL4R Sarah Leigh changed review comment from: IL4R was identified through an OMIM search for potential viral susceptibility genes. Initial triage by Illumina (Alison Coffey and team) was given a Tier 3 grouping (experimental evidence and association data consistent with viral susceptibility); to: IL4R was identified through an OMIM search for potential viral susceptibility genes. Initial triage by Illumina (Alison Coffey and team) was given a Tier 3 grouping (experimental evidence and association data consistent with viral susceptibility). "Illumina review: IL4R (interleukin 4 receptor), encodes the alpha chain of the interleukin-4 receptor [29], is a type I transmembrane protein that can bind both IL-4 (interleukin 4) and IL-13 (interleukin13) to regulate IgE production.
From OMIM: PMID: 16189667 Soriano et al. (2005)
By analysis of IL4R allele and genotype frequencies in individuals with different risk factors for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) acquisition and different rates of progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), Soriano et al. (2005) determined that the V50 allele predominated in HIV-positive long-term nonprogressors (LTNPs), whereas the I50 allele predominated in healthy controls, typical progressors, and those at risk for infection due to sexual exposure or treatment of hemophilia. Homozygosity for V50 was increased in LTNPs compared with other groups. Soriano et al. (2005) concluded that V50 homozygosity appears to be associated with slow progression to AIDS after HIV infection.

A case-control study to evaluate possible associations between SNPs in IL4R and IL6R genes and clinical dengue in children from two Colombian populations, Huila and Antioquia. The study included 298 symptomatic children and 648 asymptomatic controls. The IL4R-rs1805016 GG genotype associated with clinical dengue in the pooled and Huila samples. No association of these polymorphisms in the sample of Antioquia.

Fifty-five chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients, fifty-three self-healing HBV (SH) patients and 53 healthy controls (HC) were recruited, 404 cytokine and cytokine receptor related genes sequenced using NGS. The authors suggest that the IL4R SNPs; rs1805012 (p.Cys431Arg) and rs1805011 (p.Glu400Ala) are associated with chronic hepatitis B, there was no significant difference between the frequency of these variants between the CHB patients and the SH patients.
PMID: 31141539 Naget et al. EBV infection represses IL4R expression. Isolated EBV-positive and EBV-negative subclones from the DLBCL derived cell line DOHH-2 showed that EBV-encoded factors LMP1 and LMP2A activated the expression of HLX via STAT3. HLX in turn repressed NKX6-3, SPIB and IL4R which normally mediate plasma cell differentiation.

COVID-19 research v0.364 TLR4 Sarah Leigh changed review comment from: TLR4 was identified through an OMIM search for potential viral susceptibility genes. Based on initial triage by Illumina (Tier 5 grouping).
PMID 1106249 found that proinflammatory cytokine responses to respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) F protein were reduced in mice with deletions of Tlr4. The lungs of Tlr4 -/- mice had high levels of infectious virus and were either unable to clear the virus or took longer to clear it, in comparison with wt mice. Suggesting that TLR4 is involved in innate immune responses to viruses (reviewed by Alison Coffey and team, Illumina).
PMID 17579031 showed that: production of IL8, IL6, and other cytokines in response to RSV was reduced in bronchial epithelial cells transfected with TLR4 constructs containing rs4986790 p.D299G or rs4986791 p.T399I, compared with cells expressing TLR4 with major alleles. The authors suggest that these variants compromise the first-line defense against RSV and confer increased susceptibility to severe bronchiolitis after RSV infection.
PMID 17709532 also found that the same minor alleles were assosiated with symptomatic RSV disease in a mostly premature population, with 89.5% and 87.6% of patients being heterozygous for p.D299G and p.T399I compared with control frequencies of 10.5% and 6.5%, respectively.

PMID 32383269 reports that: cell surface TLR4 is most likely to be involved in recognizing molecular patterns from SARS‐CoV‐2 and speculates that selective targeting of TLR4‐spike protein interaction by designing competitive TLR4‐antagonists could pave a new way to treat COVID‐19.; to: TLR4 was identified through an OMIM search for potential viral susceptibility genes. Based on initial triage by Illumina (Tier 5 grouping).

PMID 32391647 reports: Hyperactivated B cell and TLR4 signalling pathway were observed in WT HBV-carrier mice, while TLR4 ablation failed to induce B cell hyperactivation, and downstream MyD88 and NF-κB were also not altered. Taken together, TLR4 pathway plays a pivotal role in B cell hyperactivation during CHB, which might serve as a promising target for B cell function restoration.

COVID-19 research v0.204 IL6 Sarah Leigh edited their review of gene: IL6: Added comment: Preprint https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.05.02.20084673 reports 10 terminally-ill, critical COVID-19 patients with profound elevation of plasma IL-6 and CCL5 (RANTES), decreased CD8+ T cell levels, and SARS-CoV-2 plasma viremia. Treatment with CCR5 blocking antibody leronlimab, results in complete CCR5 receptor occupancy on macrophage and T cells, rapid reduction of plasma IL-6, restoration of the CD4/CD8 ratio, and a significant decrease in SARS-CoV-2 plasma viremia. From single-cell RNA-sequencing, this effect appears to be a result of reduced transcriptomic myeloid cell clusters expressing IL-6 and interferon-related genes.; Changed publications: https://doi.org/10.1101/2020.05.02.20084673
