Abstract:
Objective To study whether matrix metalloproteinases-9 (MMP)-1562C/T (rs3918242) and MMP-2-1306C/T (rs243865) were associated with the susceptibility on nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and the interactions between the two factors and central obesity.Methods Genotypes of 545 patients and 636 subjects with NAFLD under control were examined by polymerase chain reaction-based restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP).Unconditional logistic regression (ULR) was performed to assess the NAFLD risk.The geneenvironment interactions on the risk of NAFLD were explored by generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) and ULR methods.Results Results from the case-control analysis indicated that there was an increased risk of developing NAFLD for MMP-9 rs3918242 (TT/CT) genotype carriers,when compared with the non-carriers (CC),with OR=1.67,95% CI:1.32-2.12,P=0.001;Adjusted OR=1.65,95%CI:1.31-2.01 (P=0.008).However,risk reduction of NAFLD was found when MMP-2 rs243865 (TT/CT) genotype carriers compared with the non-carriers (CC),with OR=0.68,95%CI:0.53-0.86,P=0.001;with adjusted OR=0.66,95%CI:0.49-0.90 (P=0.007).Data from the GMDR showed that gene-environment interaction among rs3918242 and central obesity on the risk of NAFLD might be significant (P=0.001).By using the ULR method,subjects as central obesity-positive but with genotype CT/TT,appeared having 4.50 (95% CI:2.78-7.17,P =0.007) times risk of NAFLD,when compared to the central obesity-negative subjects with genotype CC after adjusting for the covariates.Conclusion MMP-9 rs3918242,MMP-2 rs243865 were associated with risk of NAFLD while both rs3918242 and central obesity showing synergistic effects on the risk of the NAFLD.
