Some of them, in spite of being benign in nature, may show an aggressive progression pattern. To investigate the behavioral characteristics of meningiomas, researchers have studied matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), their tissue inhibitors (TIMPs), interstitial collagens, proteins, vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGF), and tumor necrosis factors.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>In this study, the authors investigated <jats:italic>MMP2<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>TIMP2<\/jats:italic> gene polymorphisms in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue samples obtained from meningioma patients who had previously undergone surgery at the authors' institution. In addition, brain invasion, Ki-67 index, and MMP-2 and TIMP-2 expressions were investigated using immunohistochemical methods. <jats:italic>MMP2<\/jats:italic> (735C&gt;T, 1575G&gt;A, 1306C&gt;T) and <jats:italic>TIMP2<\/jats:italic> (418G&gt;C, 303C&gt;T) gene polymorphisms were investigated from paraffin-embedded tissue sections using the polymerase chain reaction\u2013restriction fragment length polymorphism method.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>There were statistically significant differences between genotype (p = 0.001) and allele frequencies (p = 0.001 and OR 7.4 [95% CI 1.5\u201336.2]) in patient and control groups for <jats:italic>MMP2<\/jats:italic> 1306C&gt;T polymorphism. The authors did not find a statistically significant difference for other polymorphisms. GA genotype was found to be more frequent when brain invasion was suspected for <jats:italic>MMP2<\/jats:italic> 1575G&gt;A polymorphism (p = 0.006). There was not a statistically significant difference for other <jats:italic>MMP2<\/jats:italic> or <jats:italic>TIMP2<\/jats:italic> gene polymorphisms.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>\n<jats:sec>\n<jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n<jats:p>The authors' results support the importance of MMPs and their tissue inhibitors in meningioma pathogenesis. In future studies, these gene polymorphisms, especially <jats:italic>MMP2<\/jats:italic> 1306C&gt;T and 1575G&gt;A, should be investigated for meningioma or brain invasion susceptibility in larger
