Correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms of folate metabolism genes and ethnic distribution in pregnant women.

ABSTRACT: This retrospective study aims to identify the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) (C677T, A1298C), methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) (A66G) and ethnic distribution characteristics in pregnant women, and to explore the risk correlation with folate metabolism. The demographic data of 8735 pregnant women aged 15 to 47 years were retrospectively analyzed, and peripheral blood samples were collected and tested. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction was applied to determine the genotype and allele frequency of MTHFR C677T, A1298C and MTRR A66G in blood samples. Sperman correlation analysis, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to verify the correlation between SNPs of MTHFR (C677T, A129
