Abstract

An association of Matrix Metalloproteinases-1/3 (MMP-1/3) rs1799750/rs3025058 polymorphism with increased risk of rotator cuff tear (RCT) has been reported in a Brazilian population. However, this significant association has not been confirmed in the Chinese population. Genotyping was conducted by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-restriction fragment length polymorphism and direct sequencing. Our results demonstrated that individuals with the TT genotype had a significantly higher risk of RCT compared with those with the CC genotype. The increased risk of RCT progression was associated with the 2G allele of the rs1799750 polymorphism. No significant association was observed for genotypic and allelic frequencies of the rs3025058 polymorphism. A significant association of the MMP-1 rs1799750 polymorphism was observed with smokers, drinkers and people aged ≥60 years and non-diabetic people. Additionally, the MMP-1 rs1799750 polymorphism was associated with pre-operative stiffness in RCT patients. In conclusion, a significant correlation was identified between the MMP-1 rs1799750 polymorphism and RCT. The MMP-1 rs1799750 polymorphism might be considered as a biomarker of genetically high-risk RCT, helping to clarify the mechanism of RCT.
