Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of sepsis. A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at position -1562 (C/T) in the MMP-9 gene has been associated with differential MMP-9 expression, being higher when the -1562 T allele is present. We evaluated the association of the SNP MMP9 -1562 C/T with severity and mortality in patients with sepsis to establish whether the prognosis of the disease is affected.

SNPSTATS (tool)

RRID:SCR_002142

A web-based application designed from a genetic epidemiology point of view to analyze association studies using single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). For each selected SNP, you will receive: * Allele and genotype frequencies * Test for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium * Analysis of association with a response variable based on linear or logistic regression * Multiple inheritance models: co-dominant, dominant, recessive, over-dominant and additive * Analysis of interactions (gene-gene or gene-environment) If multiple SNPs are selected: * Linkage disequilibrium statistics * Haplotype frequency estimation * Analysis of association of haplotypes with the response * Analysis of interactions (haplotypes-covariate)

QIAGEN (tool)

RRID:SCR_008539

A commercial organization which provides assay technologies to isolate DNA, RNA, and proteins from any biological sample. Assay technologies are then used to make specific target biomolecules, such as the DNA of a specific virus, visible for subsequent analysis.
