Popis: | We investigated the association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS3) polymorphisms rs2070744 (-786T> C), 27-bp repeat 4b/4a, rs1799983 (Glu298Asp), rs3918188 (-734C> A), and rs743507 (113G> A) with idiopathic recurrent miscarriage (IRM). This was a case-control study involving women with confirmed IRM (n = 296), and 305 age- and ethnically matched control women. NOS3 rs2070744, rs1799983, rs3918188, and rs743507 genotyping was done by TaqMan assays; NOS3 4b/4a genotyping was done by PCR-ASA. A higher frequency of -786C and 298Asp alleles was seen in IRM cases, which remained associated independently with IRM on multivariate analysis. Allele and genotype distribution of 4b/4a, rs3918188 (-734C> A) and rs743507 (113A> G) were comparable between IRM cases and control women. Taking homozygous wild-type genotype as a reference, regression analysis confirmed the association of Glu298Asp and -786T/C, and rs743507 homozygous carriers with IRM risk. Marked linkage disequilibrium was seen between tested NOS3 variants, thus allowing the construction of 5-locus [-786T> C/4b4a/Glu298Asp/-734C> A/113G> A] haplotypes. Taking the common T4bGCA haplotype as a reference, multivariate analysis confirmed the positive association of C4bTCG haplotype with IRM, after controlling for traditional covariates. Genetic variation at the NOS3 locus represents a genetic risk factor for increased susceptibility to IRM. |
