Association of the Gelatinase B/Metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) Gene Haplotype in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) in the Pediatric Egyptian Population
Permanent systemic inflammation is a defining feature of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), which affects multiple organs. Gelatinase B/matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is an essential protease investigated in inflammation that has been linked to SLE. The study’s objective was to investigate the...

description | Permanent systemic inflammation is a defining feature of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), which affects multiple organs. Gelatinase B/matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is an essential protease investigated in inflammation that has been linked to SLE. The study’s objective was to investigate the relationship between the rs3918249 T/C and rs17576 A/G SNPs in the MMP-9 gene with SLE. The study was conducted with 100 SLE cases and 100 age/sex-matched healthy individuals. TaqMan<sup>TM</sup> SNP was used for genotyping by real time PCR on the Artus Rotor-Gene Qiagen equipment. Haplotypes (TG: OR = 0.226, 95% CI = 0.119–0.429) and (CA: OR = 0.36, 95% CI = 0.2206–0.631), both with a <i>p</i>-value < 0.001 were substantially linked to a lower incidence of SLE. Conversely, the risk of SLE was not associated with the individual SNPs studied. The haplotype analysis was more significant than the SNP analysis and may correlate with the decreased risk of SLE in children and adolescents in Egypt. |
