| الوصف: | Impairments of the genes that encode enzymes that are involved in one-carbon metabolism because of the presence of gene polymorphisms can affect the methylation pattern. The altered methylation profiles of the genes involved in cardiogenesis may result in congenital heart defects (CHDs). The aim of this study was to investigate the association between the MTHFR rs1801133, MTHFR rs1801131, MTRR rs1801394, DNMT1 rs2228611, DNMT3A rs1550117, DNMT3B rs1569686, and DNMT3B rs2424913 gene polymorphisms and congenital heart defects in Down syndrome (DS) individuals. The study was conducted on 350 participants, including 134 DS individuals with CHDs (DSCHD+), 124 DS individuals without CHDs (DSCHD−), and 92 individuals with non-syndromic CHD. The genotyping was performed using the PCR–RFLP method. A statistically significant higher frequency of the DNMT3B rs2424913 TT in the DSCHD+ individuals was observed. The DNMT3B rs2424913 TT genotype, as well as the T allele, had significantly higher frequencies in the individuals with DS and atrial septal defects (ASDs) in comparison with the individuals with DS and other CHDs. Furthermore, our results indicate a statistically significant effect of the DNMT3B rs1569686 TT genotype in individuals with non-syndromic CHDs. The results of the study suggest that the DNMT3B rs2424913 TT genotypes may be a possible predisposing factor for CHDs in DS individuals, and especially those with ASDs. |
