Association between Gene Polymorphisms and SNP-SNP Interactions of the Matrix Metalloproteinase 2 Signaling Pathway and the Risk of Vascular Senescence.

This study aimed to explore the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) signaling pathway and the risk of vascular senescence (VS). In this cross-sectional study, between May and November 2022, peripheral venous blood of 151 VS patients (case group) and 233 volunteers (control group) were collected. Fourteen SNPs were identified in five genes encoding the components of the MMP-2 signaling pathway, assessed through carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), and analyzed using multivariate logistic regression. The multigene influence on the risk of VS was assessed using multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) and generalized multifactor dimensionality regression (GMDR) modeling. Within the multivariate logistic regression models, four SNPs were screened to have significant associations with VS: chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) rs4586, MMP2 rs14070, MMP2 rs7201, and MMP2 rs1053605. Carriers of the T/C genotype of MMP2 rs14070 had a 2.17-fold increased risk of developing VS compared with those of the C/C genotype, and those of the T/T genotype had a 19.375-fold increased risk. CCL2 rs4586 and MMP-2 rs14070 exhibited the most significant interactions. CCL2 rs4586, MMP-2 rs14070, MMP-2 rs7201, and MMP-2 rs1053605 polymorphisms were significantly associated with the risk of VS.
