Evaluation of Gene Polymorphism and Gingival Crevicular Fluid Levels of Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 in a Group of Turkish Periodontitis Patients. Pathogens 2021; 10:pathogens10101260. [PMID: 34684209 PMCID: PMC8539123 DOI: 10.3390/pathogens10101260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/05/2021] [Revised: 09/10/2021] [Accepted: 09/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Periodontitis is characterized by the destruction of tooth-supporting tissues. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play a significant part in the degradation of collagen structure. The gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of MMPs increase with the progression of periodontal inflammation. Polymorphisms can be responsible for high expression of MMPs and can exacerbate the breakdown of collagen structure. This study aims to investigate the effect of MMP-3 -1171 5A/6A polymorphism and the GCF levels of MMP-3 in a group of Turkish periodontitis patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Non-smoking, stage II grade A periodontitis (S II-Gr A) (n = 68) and stage II grade B periodontitis (S II-Gr C) (n = 64) patients were recruited. Healthy individuals (H) (n = 72) without signs of gingivitis or periodontitis served as the control. Venous blood was collected from participants to obtain DNA, and the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was used to detect polymorphism. GCF samples were taken to assess MMP-3 levels using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). RESULTS The MMP-3 -1179 5A/6A distribution showed no significant difference between the groups (p > 0.05). However, the MMP-3 GCF levels of the S II-Gr C group were higher than those of both the S II-Gr A and H groups (p < 0.05), and elevated MMP-3 levels were detected in S II-Gr A compared to H (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The MMP-3 GCF levels showed an association with periodontal tissue destruction, although single nucleotide polymorphism was not associated with the S II-Gr C and S II-Gr A groups in the Turkish population.

Lack of association between aryl hydrocarbon receptor gene Arg554Lys polymorphism and male infertility risk: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Eur J Obstet Gynecol Reprod Biol 2018; 223:1-7. [PMID: 29427904 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejogrb.2018.01.032] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2017] [Revised: 11/18/2017] [Accepted: 01/26/2018] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES The association between aryl hydrocarbon receptor gene (AhR) polymorphism and male infertility risk remains conflicting. We conducted a meta-analysis to examine the AhR Arg554Lys polymorphism in relation to the susceptibility to male infertility. STUDY DESIGN Studies concerning the association between AHR polymorphism and male infertility were searched and related information were extracted from the included studies. The STATA 12.0 software was used to perform a meta-analysis. Pooled odd ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the association. RESULTS Six case-control studies with 1234 cases and 1755 controls were included after literature research and data collection. Overall, the results indicated there was no association between the AhR Arg554Lys polymorphism and male infertility risk (G versus A, OR (95%CI) = 0.958 (0.710-1.291); GG vs AA, OR (95%CI) = 0.874 (0.702-1.088); GA versus AA, OR (95%CI) = 0.911(0.477-1.740); GG + GA vs AA, OR (95%CI) = 0.891 (0.468-1.696); GG versus GA + AA, OR (95%CI) = 1.049(0.896-1.229)). Subgroup analysis by study population revealed there was no association between AhR Arg554Lys polymorphism and susceptibility to male infertility in Asian population (G versus A, OR (95%CI) = 1.099 (0.940-1.286); GG vs AA, OR (95%CI) = 0.982 (0.781-1.235); GA versus AA, OR (95%CI) = 1.220 (0.726-2.052); GG + GA vs AA, OR (95%CI) = 1.221 (0.740-1.982); GG versus GA + AA, OR (95%CI) = 1.087 (0.919-1.286)). CONCLUSIONS The association between AHR Arg55Lys polymorphism and male infertility risk was not confirmed in our meta-analysis. However, the results should be interpreted with caution and further studies are required.

Abstract
ABSTRACT
Objective:
To evaluate the relationship between genetic polymorphism and external apical root resorption.
Methodology:
The protocol was prepared and registered on PROSPERO. Two reviewers independently conducted a comprehensive literature search. The MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane, and PubMed databases were searched. In addition, the bibliographies of all relevant articles and textbooks were manually searched.
Results:
Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Four studies were classified as low-quality studies (score <10), and nine studies were classified as high-quality studies.
Discussion:
The results of the present review suggest that, although some authors have reported that genetic polymorphism may play a role in external apical root resorption, others have not supported this association. Future studies should be more consistent in their research methodologies to determine with clarity whether an association exists.
Conclusion:
Future investigations should include larger sample sizes with matching cases/controls, adjust for confounders, provide power calculation and odds ratios, and report genetic analyses with the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The current investigation suggests guidelines and recommendations for future investigators studying genetic polymorphism in patients undergoing orthodontic treatment.

Association between Estrogen Receptor-α Gene XbaI and PvuII Polymorphisms and Periodontitis Susceptibility: A Meta-Analysis. DISEASE MARKERS 2015; 2015:741972.

Abstract
Background. Certain studies have previously explored the association between the estrogen receptor-α (ER-α) gene polymorphisms and periodontitis susceptibility, although the current results are controversial. The present study, using meta-analysis, aimed to investigate the nature of the genetic susceptibility of the ER-α for developing periodontitis. Methods. A comprehensive literature search of PubMed, Embase, CNKI, and Wanfang databases was conducted up to January 8, 2015. Statistical manipulation was performed using Stata version 13.0 software. Odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confident intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the association in five genetic models. Results. A total of 17 eligible case-control studies from seven identified publications consisting of nine studies for the XbaI polymorphism and eight studies for the PvuII polymorphism were included in the meta-analysis. We found elevated risk of periodontitis in XbaI XX genotype carriers. Moreover, subgroup analyses demonstrated increased risk for chronic periodontitis of XbaI XX genotype carriers, specifically in the Chinese Han female population. No significant association was observed between PvuII polymorphism and periodontitis. Conclusion. Current evidence indicated that the homozygote (XX) genotype of ER-α gene XbaI polymorphism, but not PvuII mutation, may increase the risk of chronic periodontitis, specifically in the Chinese Han female population.

Abstract
Periodontitis is characterized by deep periodontal pockets favoring the proliferation of anaerobic bacteria like Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis), a periodontal pathogen frequently observed in patients suffering from periodontal inflammation. Therefore, the aim of the present study was to investigate the signaling pathways activated by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of P. gingivalis (LPS-PG) and hypoxia in periodontal ligament (PDL) cells. The relevant transcription factors nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) and hypoxia inducible factor-1 (HIF-1) were determined. In addition, we analyzed the expression of interleukin- (IL-) 1β, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP-1), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in PDL cells on mRNA and protein level. This was accomplished by immunohistochemistry of healthy and inflamed periodontal tissues. We detected time-dependent additive effects of LPS-PG and hypoxia on NF-κB and HIF-1α activation in PDL cells followed by an upregulation of IL-1β, MMP-1, and VEGF expression. Immunohistochemistry performed on tissue samples of gingivitis and periodontitis displayed an increase of NF-κB, HIF-1, and VEGF immunoreactivity in accordance with disease progression validating the importance of the in vitro results. To conclude, the present study underlines the significance of NF-κB and HIF-1α and their target genes VEGF, IL-1β, and MMP-1 in P. gingivalis and hypoxia induced periodontal inflammatory processes.
