背景:FOXP3基因的多态性可能介导Tregs的异常,导致母胎免疫耐受失衡,并最终导致复发性自然流产(RSA)。这项荟萃分析旨在使用五种特定的单核苷酸多态性(SNP)评估FOXP3多态性与RSA易感性之间的潜在关联。
方法:通过对EMBASE等数据库进行全面搜索,PubMed,WebofScience,科克伦图书馆,CNKI,万方,和CBM,我们确定了适合纳入荟萃分析的研究.使用StataSE15对从这些研究中提取的数据进行分析。为了评估关联程度,我们利用比值比(OR)及其相应的95%置信区间(CI).使用五个特定的单核苷酸多态性(SNP)来评估FOXP3基因多态性与RSA之间的联系。
结果:荟萃分析显示了几种多态性(rs3761548、rs2223365、rs2232368、rs2280883和rs2294021)与RSA易感性之间的显著关联。相反,FOXP3rs5902434多态性与RSA易感性无关.
结论:我们的荟萃分析表明,FOXP3基因内的这些遗传变异可能在RSA疾病的进展中起作用。同时,需要考虑多种因素的大规模研究来验证这一发现.
BACKGROUND: The polymorphisms of the FOXP3 gene may mediate abnormalities in Tregs, leading to an imbalance in maternal-fetal immune tolerance and ultimately resulting in recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA). This meta-analysis aims to assess the potential association between FOXP3 polymorphisms and susceptibility to RSA using five specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
METHODS: By conducting a comprehensive search across databases such as EMBASE, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, and CBM, we identified suitable studies for inclusion in the meta-analysis. The data extracted from these studies were subjected to analysis using Stata SE 15. To assess the degree of association, we utilized the odds ratio (OR) along with its corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CI). Five specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were employed in assessing the connection between FOXP3 gene polymorphisms and RSA.
RESULTS: The meta-analysis demonstrated a significant association between several polymorphisms (rs3761548, rs2232365, rs2232368, rs2280883, and rs2294021) and susceptibility to RSA. Conversely, the FOXP3 rs5902434 polymorphism was not associated with susceptibility to RSA.
CONCLUSIONS: Our meta-analysis suggests that these genetic variations within the FOXP3 gene might play a role in the progression of RSA disease. Meanwhile, large-scale studies that consider multiple factors are needed to validate this finding.
