Abstract Expression of proinflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-6 (IL-6) and metalloproteases, are elevated in patients with rotator cuff tear (RCT). In order to investigate the role of IL-6 gene polymorphisms on RCT risk, we genotyped two SNPs on IL-6 gene (rs1800795 and rs1800797) in 138 RCT patients and 137 healthy controls using polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Sanger sequencing. The IL-6 expression in shoulder joint synovial fluid was determined by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) method. The constant score and visual analog scale (VAS) were used to evaluate the clinical outcome of two s (surgicsal vs. conservative) for RCT patients. For rs1800795, individuals with the GG genotype or G allele had significantly higher risk of RCT. Elevated risk of tear size was associated with the GG genotype of the rs1800795 polymorphism. The IL-6 rs1800797 polymorphism was also associated with an increased risk of RCT, especially among female, drinkers, and individuals with B(MI) < 25 kg/m2. The elevated levels of IL-6 gene were observed among the mutant genotype of rs1800795/rs1800797 polymorphism. Surgical group is significantly better than conservative treatment from the perspective of constant score and VAS. Furthermore, CG genotype of rs1800795 polymorphism increased the constant score at 6 months in comparison with CC genotype. In conclusion, our study supports a role of IL-6 rs1800795/rs1800797 polymorphisms on increased RCT risk. The RCT patients with CG genotype of rs1800795 polymorphism have more obvious surgical treatment effects by influencing the IL-6 expression.
