Resumen
Background Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa ({RDEB}) is a severe genetic skin blistering disorder caused by mutations in the gene {COL}7A1 encoding type {VII} collagen. Most of the patients' clinical severity depends in part on the nature and location of the mutations, ranging from the mild form described as {RDEB} other-generalized ({RDEB}-O) to the more aggressive phenotype described as {RDEB} severe-generalized ({RDEB}-sev gen). However, interfamilial and interindividual differences in subjects with identical {COL}7A1 mutations suggest the presence of modifier elements, which may influence severity. There is a single nucleotide polymorphism ({SNP}) at the promoter of the {MMP}1 gene-encoding matrix metalloproteinase type 1, which has been studied as a genetic disease modifier in different patient cohorts with different findings. Methods We tested the {SNP} in 30 patients with {RDEB} and 130 controls whose four grandparents were born in northeastern Mexico. Patients were clinically classified as {RDEB}-sev gen and {RDEB}-O by three dermatologists. The {SNPStats}, {RXC}, and {SPSS} software were used to perform statistical testing. Results The allele frequencies for 2G were 0.607, 0.562, and 0.642 for {RDEB}-O, {RDEBsev} gen, and the control group, respectively. When the genotype frequencies were compared, there was no significant difference between {RDEB}-sev gen ({OR} = 0.38, {CI} 95\% 0.12-1.21), {RDEB}-O ({OR} = 1.03, {CI} 95\% 0.21-4.96), and the control group. Conclusion We found no significant association in relation to the severity of the study subjects and the {SNP} at the promoter of the {MMP}1 gene.
