Association of Matrix Metalloproteinase-1 Promoter Polymorphisms With Asthma Risk
Abstract
Background/aim: Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1) expression has been documented as an influential contributor to the intricate milieu of allergic airway inflammation, tissue remodeling, and the exacerbation of asthma's severity. However, the genetic role underlying MMP-1 in the context of asthma has remained enigmatic, with its full implications yet to be unveiled. Considering this, our research was designed to investigate the association of MMP-1 -1607 rs1799750 and the propensity for asthma severity.
Patients and methods: As a case-control investigation, our study enrolled 198 individuals diagnosed with asthma and age- and sex-matched 453 non-asthmatic controls. The genotypes of MMP-1 rs1799750 were determined utilizing the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism methodology.
Results: The frequency distributions of 2G/2G, 1G/2G and 1G/1G genotypes at MMP-1 rs1799750 were 49, 42.9, and 8.1%, respectively, among the patients with asthma. This pattern was not different from that of controls (43.7, 46.8, and 9.5%, respectively) (p for trend=0.4486). The allelic frequency pertaining to the variant 1G allele within the asthma group was 29.5%, with a non-significant disparity compared to the 32.9% in the control group (p=0.2596). Noticeably, there was a positive association between MMP-1 rs1799750 2G/1G and 1G/1G genotypes with asthma severity (p=0.0060).
Conclusion: Our research indicated that the presence of MMP-1 rs1799750 1G allele might not be the sole arbiter of an individual's susceptibility to asthma, yet its potential to function as a discerning prognostic marker for the severity of asthma emerged as a noteworthy finding deserving attention and further exploration.
