In this study dectin-1 mRNA and protein expression as well as the recently characterized DECTIN-1 Y238X early stop codon polymorphism were studied in relation to rheumatoid arthritis RA susceptibility and severity. Methods Dectin-1 mRNA expression was measured in synovial tissue specimens of RA osteoarthritis OA and nonrheumatic patients. Dectin-1 protein expression and localization were assessed in RA synovial tissue specimens. Macrophages from individuals with different DECTIN-1 genotypes were examined for differences in cytokine responses on dectin-1 stimulation. Furthermore clinical parameters of inflammation and bone destruction of 262 RA patients were correlated with the presence of the DECTIN-1 Y238X polymorphism. Results Evaluation of dectin-1 mRNA expression in synovial tissue biopsies revealed an increased expression in RA specimens compared with biopsies from OA and nonrheumatic patients. Accordingly dectin-1 protein expression in RA synovial tissue biopsies was moderate to high especially on macrophage-like cells. Cytokine production capacity of macrophages bearing the DECTIN-1 Y238X polymorphism was demonstrated to be impaired on dectin-1 stimulation. However the presence of the DECTIN-1 Y238X polymorphism was not associated with RA susceptibility or disease severity. Conclusions Although expression of dectin-1 was high in synovial tissue of RA patients and .
