Abstract
Objective: Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is defined as two or more pregnancy losses before 24 gestational weeks, accounting for 1-3% of fertile couples. A vast majority of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in some microRNA (miRNA) genes can change the miRNA-mRNA interaction and are associated with the risk of RSA. This study was designed to better elucidate the association between miR-27a, miR-499, and miR-146a polymorphisms and RSA risk.
Materials and methods: SNP genotyping of miR-27a (rs895819), miR-499 (rs3746444), and miR-146a (rs2910164) was performed using polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and tetra amplification-refractory mutation system PCR in 98 patients with RSA and 105 healthy subjects.
Results: Our results showed that the miR-499 rs3746444 and miR-27a rs895819 polymorphisms were significantly associated with RSA risk, whereas no significant differences were observed between the rs2910164 polymorphism and RSA susceptibility.
Conclusion: We proposed that the miR-499 rs3746444 and miR-27a rs895819 polymorphisms were correlated with RSA in our population, but the miR-146a rs2910164 variant was not associated with the risk of RSA.
