초록

목 적: 자간전증은 임신 특이적 질환으로, 면역 반응 관련 결합 요소의 증가에 의한 광범위한 혈관내피 기능손상을 나타낸다. 자간전증을 이끄는 생태병리학적 기전에 관여하는 세포내부 결합요소-1 (intracellular adhesion molecule-1; ICAM-1)은 면역반응의 시작을 유도하고, 그것의 혈장 정도와 기능은 유전적으로 영향을 받는다. 그러므로 우리는 이번 연구에서 한국인 자간전증 임산부에서 ICAM-1의 유전자 다형성 부위인 K469E의 분포를 평가하고 자간전증과 이 유전자 다형성 사이의 연관성을 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법: 이 유전자 다형성은 SNapShot kit와 ABI Prism 3100 Genetic analyzer를 사용하여 197명의 자간전증임산부와 193명의 정상 임산부의 말초 혈액에서 분석하였다. 결 과: ICAM-1 유전자 다형성인 K469E의 유전자형과 대립유전자 빈도는 자간전증 임산부와 정상 임산부 사이에 차이가 없었다. 유전자형인 KK, KE, EE는 자간전증 임산부에서 각각 40.6%, 43.7%, 15.7%였고, 정상 임산부에서 38.9%, 45.1%, 16.1%였다. 그리고 K와 E 대립유전자 빈도는 자간전증 임산부에서 각각 0.62, 0.38이었고 정상 임산부에서 0.61, 0.39였다. 다중회귀분석결과에서 자간전증 발생 위험도는 K469E의 이종접합 유전자형 (KE)이나 돌연변이 유전자형(EE)을 수반하는 그룹에서 증가되지 않았다. 결 론: 이 연구는 ICAM-1 유전자 다형성인 K469E가 한국인 임신부의 자간전증 발생과 연관이 없음을 나타낸다.

Purpose: Preecalmpsia is a pregnancy-specific disorder that reflects widespread endothelial dysfunction resulting from increases of adhesion molecule expression. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is involved in the pathogenetic mechanisms responsible for preeclampsia, and ICAM-1 plasma levels and/or function is genetically influenced. Therefore, we evaluated the distribution of ICAM-1 gene K469E polymorphism in pregnant Korean women with preeclampsia and evaluated the association between this polymorphism and preeclampsia. Methods: The K469E polymorphism was analyzed in peripheral blood samples from 197 preeclamptic pregnancies and 193 normotensive pregnancies by a SNapShot kit and an ABI Prism 3100 Genetic analyzer. Results: Genotypic and allelic frequencies of ICAM-1 gene polymorphism (K469E) did not differ between preeclamptic and normotensive pregnancies. The distributions of the KK, KE, and EE genotypes were 40.6%, 43.7%, and 15.7%, respectively, in preeclamptic pregnancies and 38.9%, 45.1%, and 16.1%, respectively, in normotensive pregnancies. The frequencies of K and E alleles were 0.62 and 0.38, respectively, in preeclamptic pregnancies and 0.61 and 0.39, respectively, in normotensive pregnancies. By multiple logistic regression analysis, there was no increased risk of preeclampsia in subjects with ICAM-1 KE (OR, 1.08; P=0.74) or EE (OR, 1.07; P=0.88) genotypes. Conclusion: This study suggests that the ICAM-1 gene K469E polymorphism does not associate with an increased risk of preeclampsia in pregnant Korean women.
