Analysis of the relationship between bronchopulmonary dysplasia and vascular endothelial growth factor gene polymorphism in Mongolian premature infants / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the relationship between rs2010963, rs3025039 and rs699947 gene polymorphism of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) gene and bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD) in Mongolian premature infants.Methods:A case-control design was used to collect 50 cases of Mongolian premature infants who were hospitalized at the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University and diagnosed with BPD from January 2016 to December 2020 as the observation group, while 56 cases of non-BPD premature infants of the same nationality and time period were selected as the control group.Using PCR method to detect the genotype and allele distribution of the VEGF gene rs2010963, rs3025039 and rs699947 locus.Combining clinical data to analyze whether the above gene loci were related to the onset of premature infants with Mongolian BPD in our area.Results:Through genetic testing, it was found that CC, CA and AA genotypes can be detected at the rs699947 site of VEGF gene in premature infants in both the observation group and the control group.The frequencies of the three genotypes in the observation group were 16.0%, 24.0%, and 60.0%, respectively; the frequency of the C allele was 28.0%, the frequency of the A allele was 72.0%, and the frequency of the three genotypes in the control group was 32.1.%, 32.1% and 35.7%, respectively.The frequency of C allele was 48.2%, the frequency of G allele was 51.8%, and the allele and genotype frequencies of this locus between the observation group and the control group were significant differences from those of the control group( P<0.05). Conclusion:The polymorphism of VEGF gene rs699947 locus is associated with the occurrence and development of BPD in Mongolian premature infants, and allele A may be a susceptible factor.
