Rheumatic fever (RF) is an autoimmune disease that is mediated by the cellular and humoral immune response that follows an untreated pharyngeal Streptococcus pyogenes infection. The most serious complication is rheumatic heart disease (RHD), one of the most common problems facing children and young adults worldwide, which leads to chronic valvular lesions. It is estimated that 60% of all acute rheumatic fever cases will develop RHD.
The pathogenesis of RHD is complex with both environmental and genetic factors contributing to its etiology. The investigators know little about the genetic etiology, cellular events and modifiers of progression of RHD, and there exists a wide range of disease severity and progression to severe valve pathology.
Thus, the investigators will study the genetics of RHD in Rwanda, a country with a very high incidence of RHD, using a combination of next-generation targeted exome capture, transcriptomics, and expressed quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis.
