The chronic inflammatory process including cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection has been hypothesized to induce the progression
of atherosclerosis in coronary heart disease (CHD). Numbers studies were conducted to analyze the association between CMV
infection and risk of CHD, but no clear consensus had been reached. To assess this relationship more precisely, a meta-analysis
was performed. The electronic databases PubMed, Embase, and CNKI were searched; data were extracted and analyzed independently
by two investigators. Ultimately, 55 studies, involving 9,000 cases and 8,608 controls from six prospective studies (all with
a nested case–control design) and 49 retrospective case–control studies were included. Overall, people exposed to CMV infection
had an odds ratio (OR) of 1.67 (95% CI, 1.56–1.79) for CHD risk, relative to those not exposed. CMV infection was clearly
identified as a risk factor for CHD in both prospective studies (OR, 1.31; 95% CI, 1.132–1.517) and retrospective studies
(OR, 1.79; 95% CI, 1.659–1.939), and in both Asian group (OR, 2.69; 95% CI, 2.304–3.144) and non-Asian group (OR, 1.48; 95%
CI, 1.371–1.600). Interestingly, in the subgroup analyses by detection methods of CMV, the increased risk (OR, 8.121) was
greater among studies using polymerase chain reaction than the risk (OR, 1.561) among studies using enzyme-linked immunosorbent
assay. In conclusion, this meta-analysis suggested that CMV infection is associated with an increased risk for CHD, especially
among Asian populations. 相似文献

Many studies have investigated the association between glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) polymorphism and risk for pancreatic cancer, but those studies have yielded contradictory findings on the association. We performed a comprehensive search in the PubMed, EMBASE, and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases to identify relevant studies. A meta-analysis was performed to examine the association between GSTT1 polymorphism and susceptibility to pancreatic cancer by calculating the pooled odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs). Eight studies involving a total of 4,437 individuals were included. Overall, significantly increased pancreatic cancer risk was associated with GSTT1 null genotype when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (random effects OR = 1.61, 95 % CI 1.06–2.44; P = 0.025). Significantly increased risk of pancreatic cancer was also found for GSTT1 null genotype in Asians when stratified by ethnicity (fixed effects OR = 2.67, 95 % CI 1.74–4.09; P < 0.001). The findings demonstrate that GSTT1 null genotype have a modest effect on the genetic susceptibility to pancreatic cancer, and GSTT1 null genotype is associated with increased risk of pancreatic cancer. 相似文献

Asthma is a complex multifactorial disorder and its management requires a better understanding of its various pathogenesis and mechanisms. Previous studies assessing the association between glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) null genotype and asthma risk during childhood reported conflicting results. To get a more precise estimation of the association between GSTT1 null genotype and risk of asthma during childhood, we performed a meta-analysis of 16 studies with a total of 18,558 subjects. Subgroup analyses were performed by ethnicity. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with corresponding 95 % confidence interval (95 %CI) was used to assess the association. Overall, there was a significant association between GSTT1 null genotype and increased risk of children asthma (OR = 1.25, 95 % CI, 1.02–1.54; P = 0.032). Subgroup analyses showed GSTT1 null genotype was associated with increased risk of children asthma in Caucasians (OR = 1.46, 95 % CI, 1.04–2.03; P = 0.027), but not in Asians (OR = 1.03, 95 % CI, 0.55–1.94; P = 0.928) and Africans (OR = 1.33, 95 % CI, 0.92–1.91; P = 0.127). There was no evidence of publication bias in the subgroup analysis of Caucasians. In conclusion, there is a significant association between GSTT1 null genotype and risk of asthma during childhood in Caucasians. More well-designed epidemiological studies are needed to further assess this association in Asians and Africans. 相似文献

Recent studies on the association between glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) polymorphism and risk of esophageal cancer showed inconclusive results. To clarify this possible association, we conducted a meta-analysis of published studies. Data were collected from the following electronic databases: Pubmed, Embase, and Chinese Biomedical Database (CBM). The odds ratio (OR) and its 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) was used to assess the strength of this association. We summarized the data on the association between GSTT1 null genotype and risk of esophageal cancer in the overall population, and performed subgroup analyses by ethnicity. Finally, a total of 24 independent studies including a total of 7,801 subjects (2,965 cases and 4,836 controls) were eligible for meta-analysis. In the overall analysis, there was no significant association between GSTT1 null genotype and esophageal cancer risk (OR = 1.15, 95 % CI 0.99–1.33, P = 0.067). However, meta-analysis of adjusted ORs showed a significant association between GSTT1 null genotype and increased risk of esophageal cancer (OR = 1.30, 95 % CI 1.08–1.56, P = 0.005). Subgroup analyses by ethnicity showed there was an obvious association between GSTT1 null genotype and increased risk of esophageal cancer in East Asians (OR = 1.24, 95 % CI 1.10–1.39, P < 0.001), but not in Caucasians (OR = 0.89, 95 % CI 0.71–1.11, P = 0.300). There was no obvious risk of publication bias in this meta-analysis (Egger’s test, P = 0.784). This meta-analysis demonstrates that GSTT1 null genotype is independently associated with increased risk of esophageal cancer, and a race-specific effect may exist in this association. 相似文献

We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of the association between the glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) deletion polymorphism and gastric cancer risk in populations from different ethnic backgrounds, based on a comprehensive literature search of the MEDLINE, EMBASE, and COCHRANE libraries. Thirty-six individual case–control studies comprising 7,689 gastric cancer cases and 12,445 controls were included in our meta-analysis. Overall, the GSTT1 null genotype appeared to increase gastric cancer risk (OR 1.17, 95 % CI 1.06–1.31, p = 0.003). While Caucasian populations showed an association between the GSTT1 deletion polymorphism and gastric cancer risk (OR 1.27, 95 % CI 1.05–1.52, p = 0.01), Asian populations did not show such an association (p = 0.11). When stratified by quality assessment scores, a significant association between the GSTT1 deletion polymorphism and gastric cancer risk was observed only in the Caucasian high quality subgroup (OR 1.27 95 % CI 1.01–1.60, p = 0.05). Null genotypes for both GSTT1 and GSTM1 deletion polymorphisms also increased gastric cancer risk (OR 1.37, 95 % CI 1.04–1.80, p = 0.03). Our study suggests that the GSTT1 null genotype is associated with a significant increase in gastric cancer risk in Caucasians, but not in Asians. Further well-designed studies are required to confirm the association between GSTT1 polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk in relation to various clinicopathological factors in different ethnic groups, especially Caucasians. 相似文献

Pathogenesis and genetic factors influencing predisposition to antituberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ATDH) are not clear. Polymorphism at the genetic locus of a drug and xenobiotic compound metabolizing enzyme, N-acetyltransferase type 2 (NAT2), is reported to be associated with the excess generation of toxic reactive metabolites. To date, many case–control studies have been carried out to investigate the relationship between the NAT2 polymorphisms and ATDH, but the results have been inconsistent. To investigate this inconsistency, a meta-analysis was performed. Databases including PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE and CNKI were searched to find relevant studies. A total of 26 case–control studies, involving 1,198 cases and 2,921 controls were included. Overall, we found significant association between slow acetylator genotype of NAT2 and ATDH (OR = 3.10, 95 % CI: 2.47–3.88, P < 10?5). Significant results were also found in East Asians, South Asians, Brazilians and Middle Eastern when stratified by ethnicity. However, no significant associations were found for Caucasians. This meta-analysis demonstrated that the slow acetylator genotype of NAT2 is a risk factor associated with increased ATDH susceptibility, but these associations vary in different ethnic populations. 相似文献

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARG) is a member of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily that has attracted considerable attention as a candidate gene for coronary heart disease (CHD) based on its function as a key factor involved in the regulation of lipid and glucose metabolism. In the past decade, a number of case–control studies have been carried out to investigate the relationship between the PPARG polymorphisms and CHD. However, these studies have yielded contradictory results. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, a meta-analysis of 33 studies including a total of 12,340 cases and 17,471 controls on 3 PPARG polymorphisms (Pro12Ala, C161T and C1431T) was performed. In a combined analysis, the summary per-allele odds ratio for CHD was 1.02 (95 % CI: 0.93–1.13), 0.86 (95 % CI: 0.72–1.02), and 0.92 (95 % CI: 0.74–1.16) for PPARG 12Ala, 161T and 1431T alleles, respectively. No significant results were observed under dominant or recessive genetic models for these polymorphisms in almost all comparisons. In the stratified analyses according to ethnicity, sample size, CHD endpoints and HWE status, no evidence of any gene-disease association was obtained. Our results suggest that the Pro12Ala, C161T and C1431T polymorphisms of PPARG gene are not associated with CHD susceptibility. 相似文献

This meta-analysis of case–control studies was conducted to determine whether SELE genetic polymorphisms contribute to the pathogenesis of coronary heart disease (CHD) and myocardial infarction (MI). The PubMed, CISCOM, CINAHL, Web of Science, Google Scholar, EBSCO, Cochrane Library, and CBM databases were searched for relevant articles published before November 1st, 2013 without any language restrictions. Meta-analysis was conducted using the STATA 12.0 software. Twenty case–control studies met the inclusion criteria, with a total of 2,292 CHD patients, 901 MI patients and 3,233 healthy controls. Six common polymorphisms in the SELE gene were evaluated, including 554L/F, 98G/T, 128S/R, 2692G/A, 1901C/T, and 1856A/G. The results of our meta-analysis suggest that SELE genetic polymorphisms might be strongly correlated with an increased risk of CHD (allele model: OR 2.08, 95 % CI 1.67–2.58, P < 0.001; dominant model: OR 2.12, 95 % CI 1.68–2.68, P < 0.001; respectively), especially the SELE 554L/F, 98G/T and 128S/R polymorphisms. Furthermore, our findings indicated that SELE genetic polymorphisms were closely linked to the risk of CHD in Asians but not Caucasians. However, our findings reveal no positive correlations between SELE genetic polymorphisms and MI risk (allele model: OR 1.39, 95 % CI 1.00–1.94, P = 0.054; dominant model: OR 1.40, 95 % CI 0.96–2.04, P = 0.081; respectively). The current meta-analysis suggests that SELE genetic polymorphisms may contribute to an increased risk of CHD, especially the SELE 554L/F, 98G/T and 128S/R polymorphisms in Asians. However, SELE genetic polymorphisms may not be important determinants of susceptibility to MI. 相似文献

Glutathione S-transferase T1 (GSTT1) is implicated in the inactivation of procarcinogens that contribute to cancer progression. However, studies investigating the association between GSTT1 polymorphism and bladder cancer (BC) risk have reported conflicting results; therefore, a meta-analysis was conducted. Fifty studies with 10,805 cases and 13,332 controls were recruited. The overall odds ratio for the GSTT1 null genotype was 1.1502 (95% CI=1.0384-1.2741). When stratified by ethnicity, significantly increased risk was only found for Caucasians. In Asians subgroup, interestingly, decreased BC risks were found in the Korean and Japanese populations but not in the Chinese population. When stratified by control sources, a slightly elevated risk was found in population-based but not in hospital-based studies. Besides, smoking was not found to modify the association between the GSTT1 null genotype and BC risk. When combined with the GSTM1 null genotype, a remarkably increased risk was found for BC. In general, our results suggest that the GSTT1 null genotype is associated with an increased risk of BC. Smoking did not modify the association between the GSTT1 null genotype and BC risk. Furthermore, a strong association was observed between the combination of GSTT1 null and GSTM1 null genotype and risk of BC. Further epidemiological studies will be needed to confirm our findings. 相似文献

Background and Objectives
Glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) are multifunctional enzymes that play a key role in the detoxification of varieties of both endogenous products of oxidative stress and exogenous carcinogens.Methods
In this meta-analysis, twenty-five studies were identified by searching PubMed, EMBASE, ISI Web of Science and CBM databases: 23 evaluated GSTM1 and 19 evaluated GSTT1. Crude odds ratios with corresponding 95% confidence intervals were used to estimate the association between GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms and risk of cervical neoplasia. Subgroup analyses were conducted by pathological history, ethnicity, source of DNA for genotyping, quality score, and matching variable.Results
The null genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms were associated with a significantly increased risk of cervical neoplasia (for GSTM1: OR = 1.40; 95%CI, 1.19–1.65; for GSTT1: OR = 1.30; 95%CI, 1.05–1.62, respectively). Subgroup analyses showed that the null genotype of GSTM1 increased the risk of cervical neoplasia in Asians, studies with DNA isolation from white blood cells and tissue samples, both high and low quality studies, and matched studies. In GSTM1-GSTT1 interaction analysis, individuals with dual null genotype were associated with a significantly increased risk of cervical neoplasia (OR = 1.72; 95%CI, 1.18–2.51).Conclusion
These findings indicate that GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms, particularly GSTM1-GSTT1 interaction, may play critical roles in the development of cervical neoplasia. A conservative manner should be adopted to interpret these results because of obvious heterogeneity between-study, unadjusted data, and relatively small sample size in this meta-analysis. Well designed studies with larger sample size are of great value to confirm these results. 相似文献13.
Coronary atherosclerosis is a leading cause of coronary heart disease (CHD). Atherosclerotic lesion is a complex polygenic
disease in which gene-environment interactions play a critical role in disease onset and progression. The ICAM1 gene-E469K
polymorphism has been reported to be associated with CHD, but results were conflicting. A systematic review and meta-analysis
of the published studies were performed to gain a clearer understanding of this association. The PubMed, Embase, and CNKI
databases were searched for case–control studies published up to August 2011. Data were extracted and pooled odds ratios (OR)
with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Twelve eligible studies, comprising 2,157 cases and 1,952 controls, were
included in the meta-analysis. The pooled result showed that the ICAM1 gene-E469K polymorphism was significantly associated
with an increased risk of CHD (OR = 1.496, 95% CI = 1.363–1.642, for the allele K vs. allele E; OR = 1.919, 95% CI = 11.635–2.253,
for the K allele carriers vs. EE). Subgroup analysis supported the results in the Asian populations and in the Caucasian populations.
This meta-analysis suggests that the ICAM1 gene K469E polymorphism is associated with CHD risk and the K allele is a more
significant risk factor for developing CHD among Asian and Caucasians populations. 相似文献

The association between CD14 gene C-260T polymorphism and coronary heart disease risk: a meta-analysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Monocyte differentiation antigen CD14 is considered an important cell-activating mediator of inflammatory responses that may result in atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease (CHD), thrombus formation, and myocardial infarction (MI). A common C-260T polymorphism in the promoter of the CD14 gene, the trans-membrane receptor of lipopolysaccharides, has been inconsistently associated with CHD. To investigate this inconsistency, we performed a meta-analysis of 28 studies involving a total of 13,335 CHD cases and 7,979 controls for C-260T of the CD14 gene to evaluate the effect of CD14 on genetic susceptibility for CHD. An overall random effects odds ratio of 1.24 (95 % CI: 1.12–1.36, P < 10?5) was found for T allele. Significant results were also observed using dominant (OR = 1.34, 95 % CI: 1.17–1.54, P < 10?4) or recessive genetic model (OR = 1.25, 95 % CI: 1.10–1.41, P = 0.0004). There was strong evidence of heterogeneity (P < 10?5), which largely disappeared after stratification by ethnicity. After stratified by ethnicity, significant results were found in East Asians; whereas no significant associations were found among Caucasians and other ethnic populations in all genetic models. In the stratified analysis according to sample size, CHD endpoints, and HWE status, significantly increased risks for the polymorphism were found in all genetic models. In conclusion, our results indicate that the CD14 C-260T polymorphism is a risk factor of CHD, especially in East Asians. However, additional very large-scale studies are warranted to confirm our results. 相似文献

Recent studies of vegetarians confirm a lower risk of fatal heart disease amongst such subjects. Lipid levels are lower in vegetarians, even when the diet of comparable meat-eaters is low in fat. This may partly explain the lower mortality, but it is not clear whether the absence of meat or some other aspect of the vegetarian diet is causal in this relationship. 相似文献

Exposure to benzene has been associated with haematological diseases such as neutropenia (NEB) and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). We tested whether the null genotypes of the GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes, involved in benzene inactivation, altered the risk for NEB in southeastern Brazil. Genomic DNA from 55 NEB patients and 330 controls was analysed by multiplex-polymerase chain reaction. The frequency of the GSTM1, GSTT1 and combined null genotypes was similar in patients and controls (GSTM1, 27.3% vs. 38.8%, p = 0.16; GSTT1, 25.5% vs. 19.7%, p = 0.24; GSTM1/GSTT1, 12.7% vs. 6.7%, p = 0.26; respectively). The distribution of genotype classes in NEB patients was similar to normal controls, suggesting that GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes make no specific contribution to the risk of NEB. As the GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes were previously associated with increased risk for AML in Brazil and elsewhere, we hypothesise that different thresholds of chemical exposure relative to distinct GSTM1 and GSTT1 genotypes may determine whether AML or NEB manifests in benzene exposed individuals from southeastern Brazil. Although indicative, our results still require support by prospective and large scale epidemiological studies, with rigorous assessment of daily chemical exposures and control of the possible contribution of other polymorphic genes involved in benzene metabolism. 相似文献

Many epidemiological studies have explored the relationships between three genetic polymorphisms of genes encoding homocysteine-metabolizing enzymes (methionine synthase [MTR] A2756G, methionine synthase reductase [MTRR] A66G, and N(5),N(10)-methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase [MTHFR] A1298C) and risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), but no conclusive results were obtained. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis of 23 case-control studies. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were used to examine the strength of the associations. Among those primary studies, 22 studies were for Europeans, and one study focused on the MTR A2756G polymorphism in Asians. The results of combined analyses of the MTR A2756G polymorphism suggested that the G allele was associated with increased risk of CHD and myocardial infarction (MI) especially for Europeans (GG vs. AA for CHD: OR [95% CI]=1.63 [1.18-2.25], p(z)(-test)=0.001, p(heterogeneity)=0.274; GG+AG vs. AA for MI: OR [95% CI]=1.44 [1.08-1.93], p(z)(-test)=0.014, p(heterogeneity)=0.611). In addition, the G allele was also associated with higher risk CHD based on population-based case-control studies (PCC) (GG vs. AA: OR [95% CI]=1.75 [1.24-2.49], p(z)(-test)=0.002, p(heterogeneity)=0.316). The results suggested that the MTRR A66G polymorphism was not associated with risk of CHD for Europeans (AA vs. GG: OR [95% CI]=1.07 [0.59-1.94], p(z)(-test)=0.831, p(heterogeneity)<0.01). The results suggested that the C allele of the MTHFR A1298C polymorphism might be associated with the increased risk of MI for Europeans (CC vs. CA+AA: OR [95% CI]=1.37 [1.03-1.84], p(z)(-test)=0.033, p(heterogeneity)=0.668). However, when subgroup analyses for sources of controls were performed, conflicting results were obtained. The results suggested that the C allele was associated with decreased risk of CHD based on hospital-based case-control studies, but associated with increased risk of CHD based on PCC. This meta-analysis suggests that MTR A2756G polymorphism, but not MTRR A66G and MTHFR A1298C, is associated with risk of CHD for Europeans. Because of limitations and potential bias, more well-designed studies with larger sample size, especially focused on Asians and Africans, should be performed in the future. 相似文献

Cigarette smoking is a powerful risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD), leading to the formation of DNA alterations within blood vessels and heart. However, the degree of smoking-related atherosclerosis varies from individual to individual. Genetic polymorphisms of relevant xenobiotic metabolising enzymes may determine the susceptibility of an individual response to environmental toxicants. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that the inheritance of polymorphic genes encoding cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1 MspI) and glutathione S-transferases (GSTM1(null) and GSTT1(null)) may be causally associated with the presence and severity of smoking-induced CAD. In a case-only design, 222 (179 male, 57.8+/-10.3 years) consecutive smoker patients who had undergone elective and diagnostic coronary angiography were recruited. We found a group (n=169) of smoker patients with significant CAD, defined as>50% reduction in diameter of at least one major vessel, and a group without obstructive CAD (n=53). No significant differences were observed in CYP1A1 genotypes frequencies between CAD and non-CAD smokers (p=0.1). Homozygous deletion of GSTM1 had a frequency of 58.6% among patients with CAD and 45.3% among those without CAD (p=0.08). The frequency of the GSTT1(null) genotype was 43.8% among the patients with CAD and 24.5% among CAD-free subjects (p=0.01). After adjustment for traditional risk factors, the presence of combined GSTM1(null)GSTT1(null) genotypes was significantly associated with an increased risk of CAD (OR=3.9; 95% CI: 1.3-11.4, p=0.01). Moreover, smokers with combined GSTM1(null)GSTT1(null) genotypes had significantly higher number of stenosed vessels than those with the positive genotype (2.3+/-0.9 versus 1.7+/-0.8, p=0.03). Our findings showed that smokers carrying GST deleted genotypes have an increased susceptibility to the smoking related coronary artery disease. Exploring gene-smoking effect provides an excellent model in order to understand gene-environment toxicants interaction and its implications to cardiovascular disease. 相似文献
