Abstract

Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is an extreme form of inflammatory arthritis which always leads to bony fusion of vertebral and chronic pain of back. A lot of genes including interleukin, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase were found associated with AS. MMP family members were involved in the autoimmune disease and orthopedic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, while few studies concentrated on the correlation between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in MMP and AS. In addition, there is no report on the relationship between MMP-8 and AS. To investigate the association between SNPs in MMP-8 and AS, we recruited 268 patients with AS and 654 healthy people to conduct a case-control study. Five SNPs including rs3740938, rs2012390, rs1940475, rs11225394, and rs11225395 of MMP-8 gene were genotyped. It was found rs3740938 of MMP-8 was associated with an increased risk of AS under the dominant model and additive model after adjustment for gender and age by performing logistic regression analysis (odds ratio [OR] = 1.49, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.02-2.18, P = .038; OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.01-1.87, P = .042, respectively). Moreover, haplotype "GGTCA" was associated wit...Continue Reading

Autoimmune Diseases

Autoimmune diseases occur as a result of an attack by the immune system on the body’s own tissues resulting in damage and dysfunction. There are different types of autoimmune diseases, in which there is a complex and unknown interaction between genetics and the environment. Discover the latest research on autoimmune diseases here.
