PG - 577651 LID - S0165-5728(21)00178-8 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.jneuroim.2021.577651 [doi] AB - Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS) is an autoimmune disease in which the peripheral nerves are affected. GBS has different subtypes, such as acute inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (AIDP) and acute motor axonal neuropathy (AMAN). Infections, e.g. Campylobacter jejuni, influenza, etc., can lead to GBS. Both environmental and genetic factors play a major role in the occurrence of GBS. Several studies have investigated the genetic basis of GBS. Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) genes, Cluster of Differentiation (CD) 1A, FAS, Fc gamma receptors (FcGR), Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM1), different interleukins, Nucleotide oligomerization domain (NOD), Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), Tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) are among the genes reported to be involved in susceptibility to the disease. Dysregulation and dysfunction of the mentioned gene products, even though their role in the pathogenesis of GBS is controversial, play a role in inflammatory pathways, regulation of immune cells and system, antigen presentation, axonal degeneration, apoptosis, and cross-reaction. This review aims to summarize associated genes with GBS to contribute to better understanding of GBS pathogenesis and discover the gene pathways that play role in GBS occurrence.
