ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
This study was designed to investigate the association between C(-634)G polymorphism in the promotor region of vascualr endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and endometriosis.METHODS:
The genomic DNA was extracted from 100 patients with surgically confirmed endometriosis and 100 control group from July 2003 to June 2004. Following extraction of genomic DNA, genotyping of C(-634)G polymorphism of VEGF gene was performed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP).RESULTS:
There was no significant difference in the frequency of CC genotype between the patients with endometriosis (21%) and the control group (19%). No significant difference in the frequency of allele of -634C was noted between the two groups (43.5% vs 44%), either.CONCLUSION:
The C(-634)G polymorphism in the promotor region of VEGF gene is not associated with susceptibility to endometriosis in Korean women.
