association of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (pai-1) and angiotensin converting enzyme polymorphisms with recurrent pregnancy loss in iranian women

چکیده
background: recurrent pregnancy loss (rpl) defined by two or more failed pregnancies before 20 weeks of gestation. several factors play a role in rpl including thrombophilic conditions which can be influenced by gene polymorphisms. plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (pai-1) and angiotensin converting enzyme (ace) genes are closely related to fibrinolytic process, embryonic development and pregnancy success. objective: the aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between rpl and common polymorphisms in ace and pai-1 genes. materials and methods: in this case control study, 100 women with recurrent abortions (at least two) were selected as cases and 100 healthy women with two or more normal term deliveries without a history of abortion as controls. total genomic dna was isolated from blood leukocytes. the status of the pai-1 4g/5g and ace (d/i) polymorphism was determined by pcr-rflp. results: homozygosity for pai-1 4g polymorphism was seen in 17 cases (17%), and 5 controls (5%) (p=0.006) so patients with homozygote 4g mutation were significantly more prone to rpl in contrast to control group (or: 4.63, % 95 ci: 1.55-13.84). in addition, 7 patients (7 %), and no one from the control group, were homozygote (i/i) for ace polymorphism (p=0.034), suggesting no significant associations between ace d allele or dd genotype and rpl. conclusion: considering these results, because 4g/4g polymorphism for pai-1 gene could be a thrombophilic variant leading to abortion, analysis of this mutation and other susceptibility factors are recommended in patients with rpl.

متن کاملGenetic association of five plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) polymorphisms and idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss in Korean women.
Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) is important for maintaining pregnancy. Aberrantly increased PAI-1 levels may contribute to thrombosis and inflammation, leading to pregnancy loss. This study investigated the association of PAI-1 polymorphisms (PAI-1 rs2227631 [-844G>A], rs1799889 [-675 4G/5G], rs6092 [43G>A], rs2227694 [9785G>A], and rs7242 [11053T>G]) with idiopathic recurrent pregna...

We investigated polymorphisms of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE ) and coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) genes and their association with recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) in Iranian patients and normal healthy controls. Ten (18.5%) patients were homozygote (4G/4G) for PAI-1 polymorphism, in contrast with two (2%) controls (p = 0.001). Patients wit...

BACKGROUND Polymorphisms of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) and angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) genes have been implicated in susceptibility to asthma. In this study, we aimed to investigate whether there was any association between childhood asthma and polymorphisms of the PAI-1 and ACE genes. METHODS Two hundred and three Turkish children aged 5-15 years, including 102 asthmat...
متن کاملRelationship between plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 (PAI-1) gene polymorphisms and osteoporosis in Turkish women
OBJECTIVE The development of osteoporosis is associated with several risk factors, such as genetic structures that affect bone turnover and bone mass. The impact of genetic structures on osteoporosis is not known. Plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 regulates the bone matrix and bone balance. This study assessed the correlation between plasminogen activator inhibitor type-1 gene 4G/5G polymo...
متن کاملAssociation of Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) Gene Polymorphisms with Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures (OVCFs) in Postmenopausal Women
Osteoporosis and osteoporotic fractures are strongly associated with mortality and morbidity, both in developing and developed countries. Menopause accelerates bone loss due to estrogen deficiency and age-related linear bone loss. We investigated plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) gene polymorphisms in postmenopausal women with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs). In thi...
