Several case-control studies have been performed in different populations to uncover the association between interleukin-1 beta gene, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist gene polymorphisms and urolithiasis. Here we decided to perform a literature review and meta-analysis to further estimate it. A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, clinicaltrials.gov, CNKI databases. To pool the effect size, odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were used. Finally, five articles were included. Our results of literature review suggested that IL1RN IVS2 VNTR might be associated with the risk of urolithiasis. However, the results of meta-analysis suggested that IL-1beta -511C>T, IL-1beta +3954C>T, and IL1RN IVS2 VNTR might not be associated with the risk of urolithiasis. There were not enough data to fully confirm this association and the results should be interpreted with caution.

Tolerance to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS, endotoxin) is an adaptive cellular process whereby exposure to endotoxin induces a subsequent hyporesponsive state characterized by decreased levels of LPS-induced cytokine mRNA and protein. We demonstrate, in a human promonocytic cell line, THP-1, that endotoxin tolerance is manifested by decreased LPS-induced interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta) transcription. Inhibition of protein synthesis reverses the tolerant phenotype by inducing transcription of IL-1 beta in the absence of a second stimulus. These results indicate that a labile protein contributes to the endotoxin-tolerant phenotype, and that this factor acts in a dominant repressive manner to inhibit the activity of existing transcription factors. We provide further data that cellular expression of I kappa B-alpha correlates with downregulated IL-1 beta gene expression during endotoxin tolerance, implicating I kappa B-alpha as a potential candidate for the labile repressor identified herein.
