  • Title: Association of MMP-1 (rs1799750)-1607 2G/2G and MMP-3 (rs3025058)-1612 6A/6A Genotypes With Coronary Artery Disease Risk Among Iranian Turks.

    Abstract:
    The study was conducted to evaluate the association between MMP-1 (rs1799750)-1607 1G/2G and MMP-3 (rs3025058)-1612 5A/6A polymorphisms/haplotypes and coronary artery disease (CAD) risk among Iranian Turks. Totally, 102 patients with CAD and 102 healthy subjects joined the study. Genomic DNA isolation was carried out using "salting out" method from 3 to 4 mL of whole blood samples. The MMP-1 (-1607 2G/1G) and MMP-3 (-1612 5A/6A) promoter gene polymorphisms were detected via polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism. Our results indicated that the frequencies of the MMP-1 (-1607) 2G alleles and 2G/2G genotypes and the MMP-3 (-1612) 6A alleles and 6A/6A genotypes were higher in CAD patients older than 50 years than in healthy controls (P < 0.05). We failed to show statistically significant differences between the CAD patients younger than 50 years and controls concerning MMP-1 -1607 ins/delG (1G > 2 G, rs1799750) and MMP-3 -1612 ins/delA (5A/6A, rs3025058) polymorphisms (P > 0.05). The frequencies of MMP-3/MMP-1 haplotypes were not statistically different among tested groups (P > 0.05). This examination, as the first study of its own kind in Iranian Turks, reported association between MMP-1 (rs1799750) -1607 2G/2G and MMP-3 (rs3025058) -1612 6A/6A genotypes and CAD risk in patients older than 50 years.
