天津地区人群hMLH1和hMSH2基因多态性与散发性结直肠癌易感性的关系

为探讨错配修复基因hMLH1和hMSH2单核苷酸多态性(Single nucleotide polymorphism,SNP)与散发性结直肠癌(Sporadic colorectal caner,SCRC)发病易感性之间的关系,文章采用聚合酶链式反应-变性高效液相色谱方法和序列分析技术,检测了天津地区600例SCRC患者和600例健康对照个体hMLH1394G/C、hMSH2943-1G/A、hMSH21917T/G和hMSH22783C/A的基因型频率分布。结果显示:SCRC患者组hMSH22783C/A3种基因型C/C、C/A、A/A频率(90%、9%、1%)与对照组(95%、4.8%、0.2%)相比差异具有统计学意义(χ2=11.91,P0.01)。与hMSH22783C/C基因型相比,C/A和A/A基因型能增加SCRC发病风险(OR值分别为1.77和11.94,95%CI分别为1.03～3.03和1.38～103.2)。多态性位点联合分析显示,SCRC组与对照组单倍型分布差异有统计学意义(χ2=38.38,P0.01);与394G/943-1G/2783C单倍型相比,394G/943-1G/2783A单倍型显著增加SCRC的发病风险(OR=2.18,95%CI:1.40～3.40)。结果提示hMSH22783C/A多态性可能成为预测SCRC发病风险的独立因素,394G/943-1G/2783A单倍型可能增加SCRC的发病风险。
