Matrix metalloproteinase-2 gene polymorphisms are associated with ischemic stroke in a Hainan population.


ABSTRACT: Ischemic stroke is a complex vascular disease, which has become 1 of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. More and more data showed that matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), in particular, MMP-2 are deleterious after ischaemic stroke. This study investigated the relationship between MMP-2 and stroke risk in the Southern Chinese population.We evaluated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of MMP-2 in stroke patients in an association study using a case-control design. Six SNPs of MMP2 were selected and genotyped by Agena MassARRAY. SNPStats, Haploview was used to analyze genetic data.Two SNPs in the MMP-2 gene were significantly associated with stroke risk.For rs1132896 (C versus G allele), the C allele was significantly reduced stroke risk (OR?=?0.56, 95% confidence intervals [95% CI]?=?0.39-0.81, P?=?.002). The effect of the T allele of rs243849 was IS risk according to an additive genetic model (OR?=?0.67, 95% CI?=?0.47-0.96, P?=?.028). We did not found any strong linkage between the six SNPs (rs1132896, rs1053605, rs243849, rs243847, rs243832, rs7201)The results presented strongly indicate that MMP-2 genetic variants are an important mediator of stroke risk.
