Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) referred to two or more consecutive abortions before 20th week of pregnancy. The imbalance of inflammatory factors such as interleukins (IL) can be a significant factor in the RPL. The aim of this study was to investigate association of interleukin-33 (IL-33) gene rs16924159 polymorphism and RPL in Iranian Azeri women. Materials and methods: This case-control study consisted of 100 women with RPL as case group and 100 healthy controls with successful delivery. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood samples using salting out method. The fragments of the rs16924159 polymorphism were amplified by PCR and the genotyping was performed using DNA sequencing. Results: The obtained results showed that frequency of GA genotype and G allele of rs16924159 polymorphism in the case group was significantly more than healthy controls (p = 0.033). Conclusions: Generally, we showed that the IL-33 gene rs16924159 polymorphism may play an important role in risk of RPL in the Iranian Azeri women. However, further studies on different races and geographic areas can be useful in identification of effects of rs16924159 polymorphism on RPL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
