Role of matrix metalloproteases 1/3 gene polymorphisms in patients with rotator cuff tear.

ABSTRACT: An association of Matrix Metalloproteinases-1/3 (MMP-1/3) rs1799750/rs3025058 polymorphism with increased risk of rotator cuff tear (RCT) has been reported in a Brazilian population. However, this significant association has not been confirmed in the Chinese population. Genotyping was conducted by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and direct sequencing. Our results demonstrated that individuals with the TT genotype had a significantly higher risk of RCT compared with those with the CC genotype. The increased risk of RCT progression was associated with the 2G allele of the rs1799750 polymorphism. No significant association was observed for genotypic and allelic frequencies of the rs3025058 polymorphism. A significant association of the MMP-1 rs1799750
