Genetic Correlation of miRNA Polymorphisms and STAT3 Signaling Pathway with Recurrent Implantation Failure in the Korean Population
INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR SCIENCES(2023)
摘要
The growing prevalence of in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer procedures has resulted in an increased incidence of recurrent implantation failure (RIF), necessitating focused research in this area. STAT3, a key factor in maternal endometrial remodeling and stromal proliferation, is crucial for successful embryo implantation. While the relationship between STAT3 and RIF has been studied, the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNAs, well-characterized gene expression modulators, on STAT3 in RIF cases remains uncharacterized. Here, we investigated 161 RIF patients and 268 healthy control subjects in the Korean population, analyzing the statistical association between miRNA genetic variants and RIF risk. We aimed to determine whether SNPs in specific miRNAs, namely miR-218-2 rs11134527 G>A, miR-34a rs2666433 G>A, miR-34a rs6577555 C>A, and miR-130a rs731384 G>A, were significantly associated with RIF risk. We identified a significant association between miR-34a rs6577555 C>A and RIF prevalence (implantation failure [IF] >= 2: adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 2.264, 95% CI = 1.007-5.092, p = 0.048). These findings suggest that miR-34a rs6577555 C>A may contribute to an increased susceptibility to RIF. However, further investigations are necessary to elucidate the precise mechanisms underlying the role of miR-34a rs6577555 C>A in RIF. This study sheds light on the genetic and molecular factors underlying RIF, offering new avenues for research and potential advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of this complex condition.
