“…The G allele of the MMP7 -181 A/G SNP creates a putative binding site for a heat shock transcription factor, thereby increasing MMP7 gene promoter activity and transcription compared to the -181 A allele [34]. The G allele has been reported as a potential risk factor for several gynecological disorders, including endometriosis and adenomyosis [32], as well as endometrial [27], ovarian [26], and cervical cancers [28]. Moreover, the presence of the G allele has been associated with increased levels of malondialdehyde, a marker of lipid peroxidation, in severe preeclampsia [33].…”

“…In the present study, we extended this analysis to MMP7 and 12 genes, both of which exert important functions in pregnancy, including implantation and remodeling of spiral arteries. Additionally, polymorphisms in these genes have been investigated in different disorders, including gynecological [26][27][28] and non-gynecological cancers [29][30][31], as well as reproductive disorders [32,33] and various systemic disorders [34][35][36]. Our aim was to evaluate the potential association between IRSA in Slovenian reproductive couples and MMP7 -181 A/G and MMP12 -82 A/G functional SNPs, which are located in gene promoter regions.…”

“…In contrast, in the Caucasian population, the frequency of GG genotype was lower in gastric cancer (28). In the Indian population, the MMP7 Ϫ181GG genotype was at a significantly higher risk of cervical cancer (41) and contributed to squamous cell gastric cancer susceptibility in the Kashmir Valley (36).…”

“…[55][56][57][58][59] Extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation enzymes were demonstrated as risk factor. [60][61][62] Vitamin-D is antiproliferative and is reported to induce apoptosis in human bladder tumor cells in vivo. [63] Fok-I polymorphism of its receptor (VDR) was found to be associated with prostate and bladder cancer.…”
