Abstract:

Background: Preeclampsia is a complex disorder of pregnancy with an unknown etiology. Numerous studies have shown the possible role of gene polymorphisms, especially metalloproteinases, in development of this disease, but there are no definitive results. Objective: This study aims to investigate the possible association between rs3918242 (−1562C>T) polymorphism in Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) gene with the risk of preeclampsia in pregnant women. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, participants were 90 pregnant women with preeclampsia and 199 healthy pregnant women (controls). The genotypes of rs3918242 polymorphism were investigated using Polymerase Chain Reaction technique and Limited Fragment Length Polymorphism method. Logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the relationship between rs3918242 polymorphism and preeclampsia.  Findings: The frequency of CC, CT, TT genotypes of rs3918242 polymorphism was reported 47.8%, 47.8% and 4.2% in patients and 84.8, 13.1 and 2% in controls, respectively, and the difference between groups was significant (P<0.001). The frequency of TT genotype in patients was significantly higher than in controls (P<0.001). Moreover, the frequency of T allele in patients was 52.2%, while in controls it was 15.2% and the difference between the two groups was significant (P<0.001). Conclusion: The rs3918242 polymorphism of MMP9 gene plays an important role in the incidence of preeclampsia in pregnant women.

Association of IL-19 Gene Polymorphism (rs2243191T / C) with occurrence of preeclampsia in pregnant women

Introduction: Preeclampsia, the most common, yet unknown, pregnancy-related disease, is the leading cause of maternal mortality worldwide. Increased systemic inflammatory factors as a result of decreased serum levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines during pregnancy have made inflammation a key role in preeclampsia. In the present study, the relationship between the interleukin 19 polymorphism as...

Association between Catalase Gene (CAT-262 C/T) Polymorphism and Preeclampsia in the South of Iran

Introduction: The cause of preeclampsia has not been identified so far; therefore, it accounts for a high percentages of maternal hospitalization. It seems that polymorphisms of genes encoding antioxidant system enzymes are effective in the pathophysiology of this disorder. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between CAT-262 C/T polymorphism of enzymatic antioxidant Catalase gene and ...
