FcγRIIB contains a unique immunoreceptor tyrosine‐based inhibition motif (ITIM) and functions as a negative feedback regulator of leucocyte activation and antibody production. We have previously reported FcγRIIB‐nt645+25A/G gene polymorphism to be associated with prevalence and severity of periodontitis, FcγRIIB expression level on peripheral B lymphocytes and the serum IgG level against periodontopathic bacteria. Previous studies have reported maternal periodontal disease to be associated with an increased risk for preeclampsia. Therefore, FcγRIIB‐nt645+25A/G gene polymorphism may be associated with preeclampsia by affecting immune response to periodontopathic bacteria in pregnant women. To elucidate whether FcγRIIB‐nt645+25A/G gene polymorphism has associations with preeclampsia and/or periodontitis in pregnant Japanese women, a case–control study was carried out on women with preeclampsia (n= 13) and without preeclampsia (n= 106). Maternal periodontal parameters and bacterial data ofAggregatibacter actinomycetemcomitans, Porphyromonas gingivalisandPrevotella intermediain subgingival plaque were collected within 5 days of delivery. FcγR genotypes of each woman were determined using the genomic DNA isolated from peripheral blood. Serum IgG levels specific for each bacteria were determined. There was a significant association between FcγRIIB‐nt645+25A/G polymorphism and preeclampsia (P= 0.013). The frequency of the FcγRIIB‐nt645+25AA genotype was higher in the preeclampsia group compared with the nonpreeclampsia group (P= 0.007). The DNA level ofA. actinomycetemcomitansfrom subgingival plaque was shown to be higher in the preeclampsia group (P=0.017). In conclusion, maternal FcγRIIB‐nt645+25A/G polymorphism and subgingival DNA level ofA. actinomycetemcomitanswere significantly associated with the prevalence of preeclampsia in a limited number of Japanese women independently with periodontal infection. Further investigations should be performed to confirm this association in a larger population and to determine the biological process of the association.
