Rationale: Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) behaves as a complex genetic trait, yet knowledge of genetic susceptibility factors remains incomplete. Objectives: To identify genetic risk variants for ARDS using large scale genotyping. Methods: A multistage genetic association study was conducted of three critically ill populations phenotyped for ARDS. Stage I, a trauma cohort study (n=224), was genotyped with a 50K gene-centric single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) array. We tested SNPs associated with ARDS at P<5 x 10(-4) for replication in stage II, a trauma case-control population (n=778). SNPs replicating their association in stage II (P<0.005) were tested in a stage III nested case-control population of mixed subjects in the intensive care unit (n=2,063). Logistic regression was used to adjust for potential clinical confounders. We performed ELISA to test for an association between ARDS-associated genotype and plasma protein levels. Measurements and Main Results: A total of 12 SNPs met the stage I threshold for an association with ARDS. rs315952 in the IL1RN gene encoding IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL1RA) replicated its association with reduced ARDS risk in stages II (P<0.004) and III (P<0.02), and was robust to clinical adjustment (combined odds ratio=0.81; P=4.2 X 10(-5)). Plasma IL1RA level was associated with rs315952C in a subset of critically ill subjects. The effect of rs315952 was independent from the tandem repeat variant in IL1RN. Conclusions: The IL1RN SNP rs315952C is associated with decreased, risk of ARDS in three populations with heterogeneous ARDS risk factors, and with increased plasma IL1RA response. IL1RA may attenuate ARDS risk.
