Study of association between rs7975232 polymorphism in vitamin D receptor gene and periodontitis by Tetra Arms PCR
Periodontitis is an inflammatory multifactorial disease in oral tissues and many genetic reasons and environmental factors responsible. Vitamin D deficiency has been determined to be related to periodontal disease. This aim of this study was to investigate the association between rs7975232 polymorphism in vitamin D Receptor gene and periodontitis in 100 patients (as patient and control groups).
Blood samples from 50 patients and 50 control groups were selected and DNA from the samples was extracted by the DNA extraction kit. Genotyping was used by Tetra Arms-PCR method. The use of sequencing was confirmed by the Tetra Arms-PCR genotyping results. Then, statistical analysis was performed using SPSS statistics 20 software and T-test.
Frequency of AA, AC, and CC Genotypes were 25 (50%), 14 (28%), and 11 (22%) in patients’ cases, and 26 (52%), 16 (32%) and 8 (16%) in controls, respectively. AA genotype was the highest genotype between the patient and control groups. Statistical analysis showed no significant association between this type of polymorphism and periodontitis disease in the studied samples (P=0.67).
This finding showed there was not significant association between rs7975232 polymorphism in vitamin D Receptor gene and periodontitis disease in the studied samples. To confirm the results of this study, further studies with large sample size and different types of population are recommended.
