“…This functional polymorphism located at position-82 causes an A to G substitution that affects the AP-1 binding site in the MMP-12 gene, altering the expression of the gene [46]. This polymorphism had been studied in CAD [30], AAA [29] and ischemic patients [21] and it was suggested that, A allele was associated with smaller artery lumen in CAD patients with diabetes [46]. Despite of having diverse substrate specificity [43], data relation to this polymorphism are relatively inadequate.…”

“…The 2G-allele of this promoter has been noted to increase transcriptional activity by creating an E26 transcription factor binding site [60]. But Chehaibi et al evaluated the role of this 1G vs. 2G allele in IS incidence in Tunisian patients and did not find any association between the -1607 promoter gene polymorphism and IS incidence [61]. But this failed association might be due to the similarities in genotype frequency between patients with carotid artery atherosclerosis and controls ( p = 0.085).…”

“…This relationship, however, was not found to be replicated in a non-diabetic population. The A-allele of the MMP-12 rs2276109 polymorphism (A vs. G allele) has been shown to have a higher affinity for the transcription factor activator protein-1 [116], resulting in increased expression of MMP-12 [61]. …”

“…Previous studies have suggested that MMPs may play a role in the development of several diseases, such as spontaneous early pregnancy failure (Nissi et al, 2013), solid and hematological malignancies (Chaudhary et al, 2013), and abdominal aortic aneurysms (Duellman et al, 2012). Several polymorphisms in the genes encoding MMP molecules have been studied in cardiovascular diseases (Chehaibi et al, 2014;Olsen et al, 2014;Opstad et al, 2014). It is essential to note that association study results may differ among populations owing to genetic variability between populations, including differences in allele frequencies and linkage disequilibrium structure (Neale and Sham, 2004).…”
