A multilocus interaction of three pro-inflammatory cytokine single nucleotide polymorphisms
(SNPs), -3448 Tumor Necrosis Factor-α, -7227 Interleukin 6, and 33314 Interleukin 6R was
reported by Menon and associates in 2006. The researchers reported that they were able to
predict spontaneous preterm birth in 65.2% of a population restricted to European-American
mothers. Expansion of this research is needed to determine if the results are also
applicable in Black populations.
Statement of Purpose The purpose of this research is to determine if the multi-locus genetic
interaction of tumor necrosis factor-α (-3448), interleukin 6 (-7227), and interleukin 6R
(33314), as described by Menon et al. (2006), is associated with preterm birth in Black
mother-infant dyads.
Research Aims and Hypotheses:
Primary Aim 1.0: To determine if carriage of one of the high risk genetic patterns, as
identified by Menon et al. (2006), is present in 65% of Black mothers with preterm births
and 35% of Black mothers with term births.
Hypothesis 1.0: There is no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of one of
the eight high risk genetic patterns, as identified by Menon et al. (2006), in a population
of Black mothers with preterm births (case) and Black mothers with term births (controls).
Primary Aim 2.0: To determine if carriage of one of the high risk genetic patterns, as
identified by Menon et al. (2006), is present in 65% of Black preterm newborns and 35% of
Black term newborns.
Hypothesis 2.0: There is no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of one of
the eight high risk genetic patterns, as identified by Menon et al. (2006), in a population
of Black preterm newborns (case) and Black term newborns (controls).
