Aims: To discover possible relationships between CXCL12 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and determine an elevation of SDF-1α in patients with PID.Methods: Veins blood samples were aseptically collected from women of reproductive age with pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and healthy control, attending in two hospitals of Babylon Province: Province: Babylon Maternity and Pediatrics Hospital, and Al-Mahaweel General Hospital, during the period from January to October 2018.The enzymelinked immunosorbent assay and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism and bacterial culture identification were, respectively, used to measure the plasma stromal cell-derived factor 1α level, stromal cellderived factor1 polymorphism in 45 healthy controls and in 43 patients with pelvic inflammatory disease before they received treatment protocols. Results:The concentration of plasma stromal cell-derived factor 1α was higher in patients with pelvic inflammatory disease compared to normal controls. There were significant correlations between plasma stromal cell-derived factor 1α level and white blood cell count in addition to between stromal cell-derived factor 1α level and neutrophil count in females with pelvic inflammatory disease.There was no significant different distribution of stromal cell-derived factor 1 genotypes between women with pelvic inflammatory disease and normal healthy controls. Patients with pelvic inflammatory disease having stromal cell-derived factor 1-3ʹ A allele were associated with significant different higher level of plasma stromal cell-derived factor 1α compared to patients with pelvic inflammatory disease having G/G homozygous alleles (P = 0.01). In healthy control, there was no significant difference in the level of plasma stromal cell-derived factor 1 concentration between women with and without stromal cell-derived factor 1-3ʹA allele. The concentration of CXCL12 was elevated in the patients with pelvic inflammatory disease than control healthy women and there were significantly different between them. In conclusion, A novel linkage and association was found between genetic variation of CXCL12 and pelvic inflammatory disease progression .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
