Polymorphisms of mitochondrial DNA control region are associated to endometriosis.

ABSTRACT: PURPOSE:Polymorphisms in the control region of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can affect generation of reactive oxygen species and impact in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. This study investigated the association of mtDNA polymorphisms with endometriosis. METHODS:Patients were divided in two groups: endometriosis (n = 90) and control (n = 92). Inclusion criteria were as follows: women between 18 and 50 years, with histological diagnosis and surgical staging of endometriosis (endometriosis group) or undergoing gynecological surgery for tubal ligation, leiomyoma, or ovarian cysts, with no evidence of endometriosis (control group). DNA extraction was performed from peripheral blood. Sanger sequencing of mtDNA control region was performed, and polymorphisms were determined comparing the sequences obtained with the Cambridge Reference Sequence. RESULTS:The frequency of polymorphisms T16217C (14.4 and 5.4% of endometriosis and control group, respectively; p = 0.049) and G499A (13.3 vs. 4.3%; p = 0.038) was higher in the endometriosis group, while T146C (32.6 vs. 18.9%; p = 0.042) and 573.2C (5.6 vs. 29.3%; p < 0.001) were lower. No difference was observed in haplogroups between groups. CONCLUSION:mtDNA polymorphisms T16217C and G499A were associated with endometriosis, while T416C and 573.2C were shown to be associated with an absence of disease.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between endometriosis and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) D-loop single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotype, as well as the predictive power of certain SNPs in reproductive outcomes in a Chinese Han population.MethodsA case-control study was conducted in which 125 endometriosis patients and 124 controls were recruited from an academic fertility center. The entire 1124-bp D-loop region of mtDNA of whole blood samples from all subjects was amplified, sequenced, and compared with the revised Cambridge Reference Sequence (rCRS) to identify SNPs and haplotypes. The association between D-loop SNPs and embryo quality and clinical outcome following in vitro fertilization (IVF) was also assessed.ResultsA total of 321 polymorphisms were identified by sequencing, allowing comparison of the D-loop between endometriosis patients and controls. The frequency of the AC523-524 del, T16172C, and C16290T variants were significantly higher, while the frequency of polymorphisms T195C, 573XCins, 16036Gins, 16049Gins, T16140C, A16183C, T16189C, and 16193Cins were lower, in the endometriosis group compared with the control group (p < 0.05). Within the endometriosis group, the high-quality blastocyst rate in the 16,290T subgroup was significantly lower than that in the 16290C subgroup (p < 0.05). In the control group, 16519C carriers showed a lower rate of high-quality blastocyst development compared with 16519T (p < 0.05). In endometriosis patients clinical pregnancy rate was significantly lower in the 150T subgroup compared with the 150C subgroup (p < 0.05).DiscussionData confirms a correlation between D-loop polymorphisms and endometriosis. The polymorphisms AC523-524 del, T16172C, and C16290T are associated with increased risk of endometriosis, while T195C, 573XCins, 16036Gins, 16049Gins, T16140C, A16183C, T16189C, and 16193Cins are associated with decreased risk of endometriosis. In addition, C16290T and T16519C can be associated with poor quality blastocyst development in population with and without endometriosis, respectively and C150T can be a predictor of poor IVF outcome.

Project description:BackgroundMitochondria contribute to the dynamics of cellular metabolism, the production of reactive oxygen species, and apoptotic pathways. Consequently, mitochondrial function has been hypothesized to influence functional decline and vulnerability to disease in later life. Mitochondrial genetic variation may contribute to altered susceptibility to the frailty syndrome in older adults.Methodology/principal findingsTo assess potential mitochondrial genetic contributions to the likelihood of frailty, mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation was compared in frail and non-frail older adults. Associations of selected SNPs with a muscle strength phenotype were also explored. Participants were selected from the Cardiovascular Health Study (CHS), a population-based observational study (1989-1990, 1992-1993). At baseline, frailty was identified as the presence of three or more of five indicators (weakness, slowness, shrinking, low physical activity, and exhaustion). mtDNA variation was assessed in a pilot study, including 315 individuals selected as extremes of the frailty phenotype, using an oligonucleotide sequencing microarray based on the Revised Cambridge Reference Sequence. Three mtDNA SNPs were statistically significantly associated with frailty across all pilot participants or in sex-stratified comparisons: mt146, mt204, and mt228. In addition to pilot participants, 4,459 additional men and women with frailty classifications, and an overlapping subset of 4,453 individuals with grip strength measurements, were included in the study population genotyped at mt204 and mt228. In the study population, the mt204 C allele was associated with greater likelihood of frailty (adjusted odds ratio = 2.04, 95% CI = 1.07-3.60, p = 0.020) and lower grip strength (adjusted coefficient = -2.04, 95% CI = -3.33- -0.74, p = 0.002).ConclusionsThis study supports a role for mitochondrial genetic variation in the frailty syndrome and later life muscle strength, demonstrating the importance of the mitochondrial genome in complex geriatric phenotypes.
