Aim

The aim of this study was to explore the correlation between genetic mutations in matrix metalloproteinase-10 (MMP-10) and susceptibility to pelvic organ prolapse (POP).

Material and methods

From September 2011 to December 2013, 263 subjects were recruited, including 91 patients with POP (case group) and 172 non-POP patients (control group). Total MMP-10 concentrations in serum were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The genotyping of MMP-10 was achieved by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. All data were analyzed with SPSS 18.0.

Results

We found that parity, menopause, history of total hysterectomy, and family history of POP were all significantly higher in the POP group than in the control group (P = 0.017, P = 0.046, P = 0.0029 and P < 0.001, respectively). Serum MMP-10 levels were obviously higher in the POP group than in the control group (P < 0.05). In addition, there was a statistically significant difference between the two groups in the distribution frequency of the MMP-10 (rs17435959G/C) genotype (P < 0.05). However, the distribution frequency of the MMP-10 (rs17293607C/T) genotype between the two groups showed no significant differences (P > 0.05). Furthermore, the patients with parity > 2 and postmenopausal women had elevated serum MMP-10 levels, and the patients with parity > 2 and postmenopausal women who carried the G/C + C/C genotype in the MMP-10 gene had an increased risk of POP.

Conclusion

We support the view that the rs17435959 polymorphism of the MMP-10 gene may be associated with an increased risk of POP."xsd:string
