“…There are very few studies in the literature investigating the association between MMP9 polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and DR. In these studies, it was reported that −1562 C/T variation may be related with susceptibility to these diseases (12,13). A similar study was not found in the Turkish population.…”

“…Regarding DR and a possible genetic background, Singh K. et al postulated that the functional SNP -1562C>T in the promoter of the MMP-9 gene plays a very important role in developing proliferative DR due to the elevated MMP-9 production from the high expressing T allele leading to retinal angiogenesis [ 20 ].…”

“…In the pathogenesis of DR, activated MMPs cause the damage of mitochondria and augment retinal capillary cell apoptosis [ 19 ]. Only a few studies regarding the MMPs gene single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) studies have been completed, and the results of their correlation with DR are conflicting [ 20 , 21 ].…”

“…Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are important proteases involved in connective tissue remodeling and ECM degradation [ 28 ] and play important roles in various developmental processes, such as morphogenesis, angiogenesis, and vascular remodeling. Among the MMPs, those with gelatinase activity (MMP9 and MMP2) have shown a clear dual role in the development of DR.…”
