Abstrakt: Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate a new predisposition factor, M2/ANXA5 (RPRGL3), in recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) patients of Malay origin, since it was previously known that the prevalence of this condition is relatively high among the Malay population of Malaysia, where conventional hereditary thrombophilia factors have been generally ruled out.
Methods: A total of 232 women who had experienced ≥2 unexplained RPL and 141 available male partners were recruited, with 360 healthy Malay and 166 parous female controls. Prevalence of M2 carriage and RPL odds ratios were calculated in (a) control and patient groups; (b) clinically defined subgroups in categories of pregnancy loss, primary, secondary, and tertiary; and (c) timing of pregnancy loss in early, ≤15th gestation week and "late" fetal losses, and >15th gestation week subgroups.
Results: Both male and female subjects had similar M2/ANXA5 allele frequencies. The carrier rate of M2/ANXA5 for the general Malay population was 42.2 and 34.9% for parous controls. These carrier rates compared to Malay RPL subjects (52% M2 carriers) resulted in elevated odds ratios (95% confidence interval) of 1.53 (1.1 to 2.1) and 1.97 (1.3 to 3.1) accordingly for early fetal losses. Moreover, exceeding copy numbers of M2/ANXA5 alleles seemed to afflict a greater chance of RPL in couples, especially when both partners were M2 carriers.
Conclusion: This study confirmed the proposed role of M2/ANXA5 as embryonic, genetically associated thrombophilia predisposition factor for early RPL among ethnic Malay of Malaysia.
