Association of Polymorphisms in Plasminogen Activator Inhibitor-1 ( PAI-1), Tissue Plasminogen Activator ( tPA), and Renin ( REN) with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss in Korean Women. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11121378. [PMID: 34945850 PMCID: PMC8705673 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11121378] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Revised: 12/09/2021] [Accepted: 12/14/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is defined as two or more consecutive pregnancy losses prior to 20 weeks of gestational age. Various factors, including immune dysfunction, endocrine disorders, coagulation abnormality, and genetic disorders influence RPL. In particular, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), and renin (REN) have important roles in the thrombotic and thrombolytic systems, and abnormal expression of these genes have a reported negative correlation with pregnancy maintenance. Moreover, some polymorphisms of the three genes are related to expression levels and thrombotic disorder. Therefore, we investigated whether polymorphisms of PAI-1, tPA, and REN are linked to RPL. Genotyping of the six polymorphisms (PAI-1 rs11178, rs1050955, tPA rs4646972, rs2020918, REN rs1464816, and rs5707) was performed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and associations of the polymorphisms with RPL were evaluated by statistical analysis. The polymorphism PAI-1 rs1050955 GA+AA was associated with decreased RPL risk (AOR, 0.528; 95% CI 0.356–0.781; p = 0.001) as was the REN 10795 rs5707 GG genotype (AOR, 0.487; 95% CI 0.301–0.787; p = 0.003). In contrast, the tPA rs4646972 II genotype correlated with increased RPL risk (AOR, 1.606; 95% CI, 1.047–2.463; p = 0.030). This study provides evidence that tPA Alu rs4646972 may contribute to the risk of idiopathic RPL, but PAI-1 12068 rs1050955 and REN 10795 rs5707 are associated with a decreased risk of RPL. Therefore, these alleles may be useful as biomarkers to evaluate the risk of RPL.

Abstract
PURPOSE Unpredictability in acquiring an adequate number of high-quality oocytes following ovarian stimulation is one of the major complications in controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH). Genetic predispositions of variations could alter the immunological profiles and consequently be implicated in the variability of ovarian response to the stimulation. DESIGN Uncovering the influence of variations in AMHR2, LHCGR, MTHFR, PGR, and SERPINE1 genes with ovarian response to gonadotrophin stimulation in COH of infertile women. METHODS Blood samples of the women with a good ovarian response (GOR) or with a poor ovarian response (POR) were collected. Genomic DNA was extracted, and gene variations were genotyped by TaqMan SNP Genotyping Assays using primer-probe sets or real-time PCR Kit. RESULTS Except for PGR (rs10895068), allele distributions demonstrate that the majority of POR patients carried minor alleles of AMHR2 (rs2002555, G-allele), LHCGR (rs2293275, G-allele), MTHFR (rs1801131, C-allele, and rs1801133, T-allele), and SERPINE1 (rs1799889, 4G allele) genes compared to the GOR. Similarly, genotypes with a minor allele in AMHR2, LHCGR, MTHFR, and SERPINE1 genes had a higher prevalence among POR patients with the polymorphic genotypes. However, further genotype stratification indicated that the minor alleles of these genes are not associated with poor response. Multivariate logistic analysis of clinical-demographic factors and polymorphic genotypes demonstrated a correlation between FSH levels and polymorphic genotypes of SERPINE1 in poor response status. CONCLUSIONS Despite a higher prevalence of AMHR2, LHCGR, MTHFR, and SERPINE1 variations in the patients with poor ovarian response, it seems that these variations are not associated with the ovarian response.

Abstract
Adipokines are mainly produced by adipose tissue; however, their expression has been reported in other organs including female reproductive tissues. Therefore, adipokines have opened new avenues of research in female fertility. In this regard, studies reported different roles for certain adipokines in ovarian function, although the role of other recently identified adipokines is still controversial. It seems that adipokines are essential for normal ovarian function and their abnormal levels could be associated with ovarian-related disorders. The objective of this study is to review the available information regarding the role of adipokines in ovarian functions including follicular development, oogenesis and steroidogenesis and also their involvement in ovary-related disorders.

Abstract
PAI genotyping for the G43A and 4G/5G polymorphisms was performed in 60 patients with peptic ulcer disease: 12 with an uncomplicated ulcer, 5 with perforation, the rest with ongoing bleeding. Fourteen patients had recurrent bleeding. The 5G/5G and G43A genotypes were not detected in patients with uncomplicated ulcers. All patients with ulcer perforation had the G43G genotype, 60% of patients had the 4G/4G genotype, and the rest of them had the 4G/5G and 5G/5G genotypes. The number of carriers of the 5G allele (86.05%) was higher in patients with bleeding than in ones with ulcer perforation (p=0.036) and ulcer without bleeding (p=0.021, χ2=5.32). The number of carriers of the 5G allele was higher in patients with recurrent bleeding (92.86%) than those without any relapses (82.76%) but there were no statistically significant differences (p=0.27, χ2=0.802). The G43G homozygous genotype was found in 94.12% of patients with peptic ulcer without bleeding, which was statistically significantly higher (p=0.02) than the ones with bleeding. The A allele was observed in 27.91% of patients with bleeding and 8.33% patients without any bleeding (p=0.05). The number of carriers of the A allele in patients with recurrent bleeding was statistically significantly higher than in ones without any bleeding (p=0.046). The 5G and A alleles in patients with a peptic ulcer can be used to predict the course of peptic ulcer disease and can be regarded as a predictor of the risk of bleeding relapse.

Abstract
Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is defined when pregnancy failure occurs after two consecutive in vitro fertilization-embryo transfers to the endometrium using at least four high-quality embryos in women. MicroRNAs are well-known function modulators and are involved in many diseases. Recently, studies on microRNA and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) have been actively carried out; however, single nucleotide polymorphisms of miRNA in RPL are not well known. Therefore, we set the aim of this study to identify whether polymorphisms in miRNAs that miR-27aA>G, miR-423C>A, miR-449bA>G, and miR-604A>G are risk factors for idiopathic recurrent implantation failure (RIF) in Korean women. Genotyping was assessed with a polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. We examined polymorphisms in four miRNA genes: miR-27aA>G, miR-423C>A, miR-449bA>G, and miR-604A>G. We found that the miR-27aA>G, miR-449bA>G, and miR-604A>G polymorphisms were significantly associated with a risk of RIF. In addition, the miR-27aA>G and miR-449bA>G polymorphisms were associated with the frequency of implantation failures. Specifically, the miR-449bAG+GG genotype was associated with RIF prevalence (total RIF: adjusted odd ratio [AOR] = 1.584, 95% CI = 1.008-2.490, P = 0.046; IF ≥ 3 group: AOR = 1.747, 95% CI = 1.088-2.803, P = 0.021; IF ≥ 4: AOR = 1.932, 95% CI = 1.122-3.327, P = 0.018). Based on these results, the miR-449b A>G may be a predisposing factor to RIF susceptibility. However, the mechanism underlying the function of miR-449b A>G in RIF remains to be determined and further studies are needed to improve understanding of the roles of miR-449b A>G, using a larger and more heterogeneous cohort.

Maturitas 2019; 120:77-82. [PMID: 30583769 DOI: 10.1016/j.maturitas.2018.11.018] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2018] [Revised: 11/12/2018] [Accepted: 11/26/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Until now, an association between tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase (TIMP) polymorphisms and primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) has not been identified. The aim of our study was to investigate whether the TIMP polymorphisms TIMP1T > C (rs4898), TIMP1G > A (rs6609533), TIMP2G > C (rs8179090), TIMP2G > A (rs2277698), TIMP3G > A (rs135029), and TIMP4T > C (rs3755724), which regulate matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), confer a risk for primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) in Korean women (further studies would be required to evaluate the associations between TIMP polymorphisms and POI in other populations). METHODS We genotyped 137 POI patients and 236 controls for the single nucleotide polymorphism sites using PCR-RFLP analysis. Differences in the frequencies of the TIMP1T > C (rs4898), TIMP1G > A (rs6609533), TIMP2G > C (rs8179090), TIMP2G > A (rs2277698), TIMP3G > A (rs135029), and TIMP4T > C (rs3755724) genotypes between patients and controls were compared, and odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were determined to measure of the strength of the association between the genotypes and POI. RESULTS The TIMP1T > C (rs4898), TIMP1G > A (rs6609533), TIMP2G > C (rs8179090), TIMP2G > A (rs2277698), TIMP3G > A (rs135029), and TIMP4T > C (rs3755724) genotypes, but especially the TIMP2 genotypes, were found more frequently in POI patients than in control subjects. Among the four TIMP loci, the TIMP1T > C (rs4898), TIMP1G > A (rs6609533), TIMP2G > C (rs8179090), TIMP2G > A (rs2277698), TIMP3G > A (rs135029), and TIMP4T > C (rs3755724) haplotypes were identified more frequently in POI patients than in control subjects and conferred susceptibility to POI (P <0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The TIMP2G > C (rs8179090) and G > A (rs2277698) alleles were strongly associated with POI. Our data suggest that the minor TIMP2 alleles may increase POI risk in Korean women.

Abstract
Plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 (PAI‐1) plays a crucial role in the process of lung injury, although its association with radiation pneumonitis (RP) is unclear. We hypothesized that genetic variants in PAI‐1 may influence the risk of RP. In this study, 169 lung cancer patients were genotyped for six single‐nucleotide polymorphisms in PAI‐1 using the Sequenom MassARRAY system. The risk of RP was evaluated by Cox proportional hazards analyses. The cumulative RP probabilities by genotype were assessed using Kaplan–Meier analyses. Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that PAI‐1:rs7242 GT/GG was correlated with an increased occurrence of grade ≥3 RP (crude hazard ratio = 3.331; 95% confidence interval, 1.168–9.497; P = 0.024). Our results indicated that PAI‐1:rs7242 in the 3′‐untranslated region of PAI‐1 can be a predictor of grade ≥3 RP before radiotherapy.
