Objective: To study the correlation of peripheral blood IL-17A gene polymorphism with myocardial injury and MMPs/TIMPs balance in patients with viral myocarditis. Methods: A total of 80 patients who were diagnosed with viral myocarditis in Dongguan Branch, Yan’an University Affiliated Hospital between September 2014 and September 2017 were selected as the VMC group of the research, and 100 healthy volunteers who received physical examination in Dongguan Branch, Yan’an University Affiliated Hospital during the same period were selected as the control group of the research. The peripheral blood was collected to determine the IL-17A gene rs2275913 locus polymorphism, and serum was collected to determine the contents of myocardial injury and MMPs/TIMPs indexes. Results: The proportion of IL-17A gene GG genotype of VMC group was lower than that of control group and the proportion of GA+AA genotype was higher than that of control group; serum IL-17, CK-MB, cTnI, sFas, MDA, PINP, ICTP, MMP2, MMP9, TIMP1 and TIMP2 contents of VMC group were significantly higher than those of control group, and serum IL-17, CK-MB, cTnI, sFas, MDA, PINP, ICTP, MMP2, MMP9, TIMP1 and TIMP2 contents of patients with GA+AA genotype in VMC group were higher than those of patients with GG genotype. Conclusion: The mutation of the allele G to A in the peripheral blood IL-17A gene rs2275913 locus of patients with viral myocarditis can aggravate myocardial injury and MMPs/TIMPs imbalance. |
