Several genome-wide association studies on colorectal cancer (CRC) have reported similar findings of a new susceptibility locus, 15q13.3. After that, a number of studies have reported that the rs4779584 and rs10318 polymorphisms at chromosome 15q13.3 have been implicated in CRC and colorectal adenoma (CRA) risk; however, these studies have yielded inconsistent results. To investigate this inconsistency, we performed a meta-analysis of 22 studies involving a total of 48,468 CRC cases, 4,189 CRA cases, and 85,105 controls for the two polymorphisms to evaluate its effect on genetic susceptibility for CRC/CRA. Potential sources of heterogeneity and publication bias were also systematically explored. Overall, the summary odds ratio (OR) of rs4779584-T variant for CRC was 1.13 (95 % CI 1.09–1.16, P < 10?5) and 1.15 (95 % CI 1.04–1.28, P = 0.006) for CRA. After stratified by ethnicity, significantly increased CRC risks were found for rs4779584 polymorphism among East Asians and Caucasians, while no significant associations were detected among African American and other ethnic populations. A meta-analysis of studies on the rs10318 polymorphism also showed significant overall association with CRC, yielding a per-allele OR of 1.13 (95 % CI 1.02–1.24, P = 0.02). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significantly increased CRC risks were found in Caucasians; whereas no significant associations were found among East Asians and African Americans. This meta-analysis demonstrated that the rs4779584 and rs10318 polymorphism at 15q13.3 is a risk factor associated with increased CRC/CRA susceptibility, but these associations vary in different ethnic populations. 相似文献

Several previous studies have evaluated the association between rs1149048 polymorphism in the matrilin-1 gene (MATN1) and the risk of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). However the results of those studies were inconsistent. We conducted this meta-analysis to assess whether rs1149048 polymorphism was involved in the risk of AIS and evaluated the associations in different ethnicities. Electronic databases, such as: PubMed, EMBASE, WANFANG databases in any languages up to Dec 2012 were searched to assess the association between rs1149048 polymorphism and AIS. Meta-analysis was performed by STATA 12.0 software to estimate the pooled odds ratio (OR) and the 95 % confidence interval (CI). Finally four papers including five studies which involved 1436 AIS patients and 1,879 controls were identified for this meta-analysis. The results showed that G allele of the rs1149048 was significantly associated with increased AIS risk [OR = 1.13, 95 % CI (1.02–1.25), P = 0.023]. As for genotype (GG vs. GA + AA), homozygous GG genotype was also found to be a risk factor of developing AIS. The subgroup meta-analysis results showed G allele and GG genotype were significantly associated with AIS in Asian group but not in Caucasian group. Neither Egger’s test nor Begg’s test found evidence of publication bias in current study (P > 0.05). In summary, this meta-analysis found an overall significant association of rs1149048 polymorphism with risk of AIS, especially in Asian population. The relationship between rs1149048 polymorphism and AIS in other ethnic population is needed to be investigated. 相似文献

A number of case–control studies have been conducted to investigate the association of CDKN1B gene polymorphisms with breast cancer. However, these studies reported conflicting results. The aim of our study was to quantitatively summarize the association of CDKN1B gene polymorphisms with breast cancer. Systemic searches of the PubMed, Excerpta Medica Database, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database databases were performed, with the last report up to Oct 2012. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the association. Seven studies including 6,822 cases and 7,186 controls were involved in this meta-analysis, which was performed for two CDKN1B gene polymorphisms (rs2066827 and rs34330). Significant association was found for rs34330 polymorphism (T versus C: OR = 1.10, 95 % CI = 1.03–1.18, P = 0.003; CT + TT versus CC: OR = 1.38, 95 % CI = 0.98–1.93, P = 0.07; TT versus CC + CT: OR = 1.06, 95 % CI = 0.93–1.21, P = 0.38; TT versus CC: OR = 1.23, 95 % CI = 1.04–1.45, P = 0.02; CT versus CC: OR = 1.42, 95 % CI = 0.97–2.09, P = 0.07), but not for rs2066827 polymorphism (G versus T: OR = 0.99, 95 % CI = 0.91–1.08, P = 0.84; TG + GG versus TT: OR = 0.98, 95 % CI = 0.89–1.08, P = 0.69; GG versus TT + TG: OR = 1.04, 95 % CI = 0.83–1.30, P = 0.75; GG versus TT: OR = 1.03, 95 % CI = 0.82–1.30, P = 0.77; TG versus TT: OR = 0.97, 95 % CI = 0.88–1.08, P = 0.58). This meta-analysis suggests that breast cancer may be associated with CDKN1B gene rs34330 polymorphism, but not rs2066827 polymorphism. 相似文献

This meta-analysis was undertaken to identify the relationships between genetic polymorphisms in the LDLR gene and the risk of cerebral infarction. The Web of Science (1945–2013), the Cochrane Library Database (Issue 12, 2013), PubMed (1966–2013), EMBASE (1980–2013), CINAHL (1982–2013) and the Chinese Biomedical Database (CBM) (1982–2013) were searched for relevant articles without language restrictions. Meta-analysis was conducted using the STATA 12.0 software. Crude odds ratios (OR) with their corresponding 95 % confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Eight case–control studies with a total of 4,655 patients with cerebral infarction and 15,920 healthy control subjects were included in our meta-analysis. Five common polymorphisms in the LDLR gene were evaluated, including rs11669576 A > T, rs1433099 C > T, rs5925 C > T, rs688 C > T, rs1122608 T > G in the LDLR gene. The results of this meta-analysis revealed that cerebral infarction patients had a higher frequency of LDLR genetic polymorphisms than that of healthy controls (allele model: OR 1.17, 95 % CI 1.05–1.30, P = 0.004; dominant model: OR 1.18, 95 % CI 1.05–1.33, P = 0.007; homozygous model: OR 1.50, 95 % CI 1.03–2.16, P = 0.032; respectively), especially for the rs11669576 A > T, rs1433099 C > T and rs5925 C > T polymorphisms. Among different ethnic subgroups, the results demonstrated positive correlations between LDLR genetic polymorphisms and an increased risk of cerebral infarction among both Asians and Caucasians under the allele and dominant models (all P < 0.05). Our findings indicate that LDLR genetic polymorphisms may be strongly involved in the pathogenesis of cerebral infarction, especially the rs11669576 A > T, rs1433099 C > T, rs5925 C > T polymorphisms. 相似文献

Intercellular cell adhesion molecules (ICAMs) genetic polymorphisms have been considered to be implicated in the development of breast cancer. However, the previous reports are conflicting. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to assess the association between three polymorphisms, including ICAM1 K469E, ICAM5 V301I, ICAM5 rs281439, and breast cancer risk. The meta-analyses are based on a literature search of PubMed, CNKI and VIP database up until August 2011. Pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence interval (CI) was calculated using review manager 5.0.25 package. In total, five populations (2,020 cases and 2,012 controls) on ICAM1 K469E polymorphism, four populations (1,797 cases and 2,244 controls) on ICAM5 V301I polymorphism and five populations (2,744 cases and 3,006 controls) on ICAM5 rs281439 variant were included. Overall, the meta-analysis showed no significant association between ICAM1 K469E polymorphism and breast cancer risk. However, a significant association was observed for ICAM5 V301I polymorphism (VV vs. II: OR = 1.48, 95 % CI 1.04–2.13, P = 0.03; VV/VI vs. II: OR = 1.25, 95 % CI 1.05–1.48, P = 0.01). In addition, there was a significant association between ICAM5 rs281439 variant and breast cancer risk (GG vs. CC: OR = 1.31, 95 % CI 1.03–1.65, P = 0.03). Our meta-analysis suggests that the ICAM5 V301I and rs281439 variants but not ICAM1 K469E polymorphism may contribute to the susceptibility of breast cancer. Given the limited sample sizes, further investigation is needed. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether the Fcγ receptors (FCGRs) polymorphisms confer susceptibility to periodontitis in ethnically different populations. We did a literature search using PubMed and Embase, and conducted a meta-analysis on the associations between the FCGR2A H131R (rs1801274), FCGR3A F158V (rs396991), and FCGR3B NA1/NA2 polymorphisms and periodontitis using allele contrast, the recessive model, the dominant model, and the homozygote contrast. A total of 17 separate comparisons with 1,421 patients with periodontitis and 1,454 controls, involving six Caucasian, six East Asian, two African and one South Asian population were considered in the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of the FCGR2A H131R polymorphism showed no association between periodontitis and the FCGR2A R allele (OR = 0.987, 95 % CI = 0.881–1.107, p = 0.827). Stratification by ethnicity revealed an association between the RR+RH genotype with periodontitis in Caucasian population (OR = 0.624, 95 % CI = 0.479–0.813, p = 4.7 × 10?5), but not in East Asian, and African populations. Meta-analysis of the FCGR3A F158V polymorphism revealed an association between the FCGR3A V allele and periodontitis is in Caucasians (OR = 1.457, 95 % CI = 1.014–2.092, p = 0.042), but not in East Asians and Africans. In addition, analysis using the dominant model and homozygote contrast showed the same pattern for the FCGR3A V allele. Meta-analysis of the FCGR3B NA1/NA2 polymorphism using the recessive model revealed a significant association between the NA2/NA2 genotype and periodontitis in aggressive periodontitis (OR = 2.853, 95 % CI = 1.673–4.863, 1.1 × 10?5). This meta-analysis demonstrates that the FCGR2A, and FCGR3A polymorphisms may confer susceptibility to periodontitis in Caucasians, and that the FCGR3B polymorphism may be associated with susceptibility to aggressive periodontitis. 相似文献

As a key encoding protein gene of MRN (MRE11-RAD50-NBS1) complex, NBS1 plays a crucial role in maintaining genomic stability and preventing cell apoptosis, inflammation and tumorgenesis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs2735383 and rs1805794) in NBS1 have been frequently studied in some cancers with discordant results in previous case–control studies. However, the relationship between these two functional polymorphisms and the susceptibility to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in Chinese population has not been investigated. We performed a case–control study with 428 patients and 600 controls to detect the association between the two polymorphisms of NBS1 and the risk of AML in a Chinese population. The polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) method was carried out to determine the genotypes of potential functional SNPs in NBS1 gene. The results showed that compared with the homozygous carriers rs1805794CC, rs1805794GC genotype was significantly associated with decreased risk of AML in total subjects (adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 0.50; 95 % CI = 0.37–0.67), the risk decreased even further in those carrying rs1805794GG genotype (OR = 0.23; 95 % CI = 0.16–0.34). No significant association was found between rs2735383C>G polymorphism and the risk of AML (OR = 0.93; 95 % CI = 0.71–1.22 for GC; OR = 0.78; 95 % CI = 0.53–1.13 for CC, P = 0.152). These findings indicated that rs1805794G/C polymorphism in NBS1 may play a protective role in mediating the risk of AML. 相似文献

The association between the rs7003908 (T>G) polymorphism in the XRCC7 gene and the risk of cancers had been widely studied; however, the results were inconsistent. The objective of the current study was to investigate the association between the rs7003908 polymorphism in the XRCC7 gene and the risk of cancers by meta-analysis. We searched PubMed, EMbase, CNKI and Wanfang databases; the last search was performed on January 10th, 2014. Statistical analysis was performed using the Revman4.2 and STATA10.0 softwares. A total of 3,684 cancer cases and 5,232 controls from 11 case–control studies were included for data analysis. In the dominant model analysis, the results suggested a lack of association between the polymorphism and the risk of cancers: OR 1.01, 95 % CI 0.83–1.16, P = 0.70. In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, no significant association was found either for Asians or Caucasians. In the subgroup analysis by cancer types, significant association was found for prostate cancer, but not for bladder cancer, breast cancer and glioma. In summary, the current meta-analysis confirmed that the rs7003908 polymorphism in the XRCC7 gene might be a risk factor for prostate cancer. In the future, more studies are needed to validate these results. 相似文献

We conducted this meta-analysis of relevant case–control studies to investigate the relationships between genetic polymorphisms in VDR, ESR1 and ESR2 genes to the susceptibility of Parkinson’s disease (PD). A search on electronic databases without any language restrictions was conducted: MEDLINE (1966–2013), the Cochrane Library Database (Issue 12, 2013), EMBASE (1980–2013), CINAHL (1982–2013), Web of Science (1945–2013) and the Chinese Biomedical Database (1982–2013). Meta-analysis was performed using the STATA statistical software. Crude odds ratio (OR) with their 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) was calculated. Fourteen case–control studies with a total of 3,689 PD patients and 4,627 healthy subjects were included in our meta-analysis. The results of our meta-analysis demonstrated that the VDR genetic polymorphisms might be closely related to increased risks of PD (allele model: OR = 1.18, 95 % CI 1.09–1.29, P < 0.001; dominant model: OR = 1.37, 95 % CI 1.16–1.63, P < 0.001; respectively), especially for the polymorphisms rs7976091 and rs10735810. Our findings also illustrated that ESR1 genetic polymorphisms might increase the risk of PD (allele model: OR = 1.56, 95 % CI 1.17–2.07, P = 0.002; recessive model: OR = 1.93, 95 % CI 1.33–2.80, P < 0.001; homozygous model: OR = 1.35, 95 % CI 1.02–1.79, P = 0.038; heterozygous model: OR = 2.04, 95 % CI 1.36–3.07, P = 0.001; respectively), especially for the polymorphisms rs2234693 and rs9340799. Furthermore, we found significant correlations of ESR2 genetic polymorphisms with the risk of PD (allele model: OR = 1.78, 95 % CI 1.19–2.67, P = 0.005; recessive model: OR = 1.93, 95 % CI 1.15–3.27, P = 0.014; homozygous model: OR = 1.77, 95 % CI 1.09–2.89, P = 0.022; heterozygous model: OR = 1.88, 95 % CI 1.08–3.27, P = 0.025; respectively), especially for the rs1256049 polymorphism. Our meta-analysis suggests that genetic polymorphisms in VDR, ESR1 and ESR2 genes may contribute to increased risks for PD. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether toll-like receptor (TLR) polymorphisms confers susceptibility to vasculitis. A literature search was conducted using the PubMed and Embase. A meta-analysis on the associations between the TLR4 Asp299Gly polymorphisms and vasculitis was carried out using allele contrast, dominant, and codominant models and a systematic review of other TLR polymorphisms. Fourteen studies involving 2,064 patients and 2,481 controls were included in this systematic review, which comprised nine on Behcet’s disease (BD), three on giant cell arteritis (GCA), and one on Henoch–Schenlein purpura (HSP). Meta-analysis of six studies showed a significant association between the Gly/Gly+Gly/Asp genotype of the TLR4 Asp299Gly polymorphism and vasculitis and GCA (Odds ratio [OR] = 1.368, 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 1.300–1.815, p = 0.030; OR = 1.523, 95 % CI = 1.099–2.112, p = 0.012). Under a random effects model, the adjusted ORs calculated using the trim and fill technique revealed an association between the Gly/Gly+Gly/Asp genotype of the TLR4 Asp299Gly polymorphism and vasculitis (OR = 1.544, 95 % CI = 1.091–2.185, p < 0.05). Stratification by vasculitis type using the codominant model showed the trend for the association with GCA (OR = 1.569, 95 % CI = 0.970–2.538, p = 0.066). There were three studies on the TLR2 Arg753Gln polymorphism and two on the TLR4 Thr399Ile polymorphism; no association with vasculitis was evident. Among the TLR2, TLR7, and TLR9 polymorphisms included in this review, one Asian study revealed a significant association between the TLR7 rs5743733 and rs3853839 with BD (p = 0.002, 0.036) and one Asian study showed an association of TLR9 rs352140 with BD (p = 0.009). This meta-analysis demonstrates that the TLR4 Asp299Gly polymorphism may confer susceptibility to GCA. The review of published data suggests that other TLR polymorphisms such as TLR7 and TLR9 may play a role in vasculitis. 相似文献

Published data on the association between microRNA-499 (miR-499) rs3746444 T>C polymorphism and cancer susceptibility are inconclusive. To derive a more precise estimation of this relationship, a comprehensive meta-analysis was performed on nine published studies, with a total sample of 4,794 cases and 5,971 controls. Overall, no significant association was found between miR-499 polymorphism and cancer risk after all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis. However, in the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, significant association with an increased risk was found in Asian (CC vs. TT: OR = 1.439, 95 % CI = 1.118–1.852, P = 0.005, p-heterogeneity = 0.116). Moreover, in the the subgroup analysis by cancer type, this SNP was associated with an increased risk of breast cancer in the recessive model (OR = 1.077, 95 % CI = 1.008–1.151, P = 0.028, p-heterogeneity = 0.125). Our findings support the view that miR-499 rs3746444 T>C polymorphism is associated with breast cancer and the C allele can increase cancer susceptibility in Asian. 相似文献

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common chronic inflammatory autoimmune disease. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of tumor necrosis factor-receptor associated factor 1/complement component 5 (TRAF1/C5) gene are suspected to be associated with the risk of RA. This meta-analysis was performed to study the relationship between the polymorphism rs10818488 in TRAF1/C5 gene with RA. We retrieved the relevant articles from PubMed, EMBASE and the China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases. Odd ratios were calculated to assess the association between TRAF1/C5 rs10818488 polymorphism and RA risk. Meta-analyses were performed on the total data set and separately for the major ethnic groups and RF and ACAP status. All analyses were performed using the Stata software. Eight articles were included in the present analysis. Meta-analysis showed a weak association between TRAF1/C5 rs10818488 polymorphism and RA in all subjects (OR = 1.13, 95 % CI = 1.01–1.27, P heterogeneity < 0.001). Stratified analyses indicated that the TRAF1/C5 rs10818488 A allele was significantly associated with RA in Caucasians (OR = 1.29, 95 %CI = 1.14–1.47, P heterogeneity = 0.026), Asians (OR = 0.92, 95 %CI = 0.86–0.99, P heterogeneity = 0.378) and Africans (OR = 1.56, 95 %CI = 1.23–1.98, P heterogeneity = 0.876), also significantly in positive ACPA and positive RF patients versus controls (ORs were 1.20 and 1.25, 95 %CIs were 1.08–1.33 and 1.14–1.37, P values for heterogeneity were 0.215 and 0.133, respectively). Genetic polymorphism rs10818488 in TRAF1/C5 gene might be associated with RA susceptibility. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to determine whether interferon regulatory factor 5 (IRF5) polymorphisms confers susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in populations with different ethnicities. We searched the literature using the Pubmed and Embase databases and conducted meta-analyses on associations between the four IRF5 polymorphisms (rs2004640, rs729302, rs752637, and rs2280714) and RA susceptibility, using fixed and random effects models. A total of 12 comparison studies were considered in this meta-analysis, which in total involved 7,916 RA patients and 6,452 controls, and eight European, three Asian, and one Argentinean population. Meta-analysis showed an association between the minor allele of rs2004640 and RA in all subjects (odds ratio [OR] = 0.928, 95 % confidence interval [CI] = 0.865–0.996, P = 0.037). After stratification by ethnicity, analysis indicated that the minor allele was significantly associated with RA in Europeans (OR = 0.889, 95 % CI = 0.839–0.941, P = 5.03 × 10?6), but not in Asians (OR = 1.057, 95 % CI = 0.978–1.144, P = 0.164). A direct comparison between anti-citrullinated peptide antibody-positive and -negative patients revealed no difference of the frequency of the rs2004640 minor allele (OR = 1.047, 95 % CI = 0.813–1.348, P = 0.724). Meta-analysis identified a significant association between RA and the minor allele of the rs729302 polymorphism in the overall population (OR = 0.896, 95 % CI = 0.826–0.972, P = 0.009) and in Asians (OR = 0.862, 95 % CI = 0.795–0.935, P = 3.50 × 10?5), but not in Europeans (OR = 0.951, 95 % CI = 0.877–1.031, P = 0.225). Meta-analysis showed an association between the minor allele of rs752637 and RA in Europeans (OR = 0.858, 95 % CI = 0.789–0.932, P = 3.03 × 10?5), but not in Asians (OR = 1.035, 95 % CI = 0.918–1.168, P = 0.572). No association was found between the rs2280714 polymorphism and RA susceptibility. This meta-analysis confirms that the IRF5 rs2004640, rs729302 and rs752637 polymorphisms are associated with RA susceptibility in different ethnic groups, especially in Europeans and Asians, but further study of this association is required in other ethnic groups. 相似文献

The purpose of the study was to investigate the potential associations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in microRNA (miRNA)-binding sites in the integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) gene and integrin beta-3 (ITGB3) gene 3′-untranslated regions, and colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility in a Chinese population. A hospital-based case–control study was performed in 200 patients with CRC and 200 matched healthy donors. Two SNPs in miRNA binding of ITGB1 and ITGB3 genes (rs17468 and rs2317676) were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restrict fragment length polymorphism assay. The association between genotypes and CRC risk was evaluated by computing the odds ratio (OR) and 95 % confidence interval (CI) from multivariate unconditional logistic regression analyses. The frequency of the T genotype in ITGB1 rs17468 and G genotype in ITGB3 rs2317676 occurred more frequently in CRC patients than in controls (P < 0.05). We found that CT and TT genotypes of rs17468 were associated with a significantly increased risk of CRC (OR = 1.67, 95 % CI = 1.090–2.559 for CT + TT vs. CC), also the AG and GG genotype in ITGB3 rs2317676 (OR = 1.65, 95 % CI = 1.114–2.458 for AG + GG vs. AA). In conclusion, our results showed that both the ITGB1 rs17468 SNP and ITGB3 rs2317676 SNP were associated with an increased risk of CRC, which suggests that these 2 SNPs might contribute to CRC risk in a Chinese population. 相似文献

Accumulating studies have evaluated the association of Alpha-2-Macroglobulin gene (A2M) 5 bp insertion/deletion (5 bp I/D, rs3832852) and Ile1000Val (rs669) polymorphisms with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) risk, but the results remain inconclusive. To investigate whether these two polymorphisms facilitate the susceptibility to AD, we conducted a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis. Databases of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Medline, CNKI, and Google Scholar were searched to get the genetic association studies. All statistical analyses were conducted with Review Manager 5.2 and STATA11.0. Fifty-two articles were included in the final meta-analysis. We performed meta-analysis of 39 studies involving 8,267 cases and 7,932 controls for the 5 bp I/D polymorphism and 27 studies involving 6,585 cases and 6,637 controls for the Ile/Val polymorphism. Overall results did not show significant association between these two polymorphisms and AD risk in dominant, recessive, and multiplicative genetic models. On the stratification analyses by ethnicity and APOE ε4 status with genotypes of polymorphism sites, similar negative associations were found. The meta-analysis suggests that there is no enough evidence for associations of A2M gene polymorphisms (5 bp I/D, Ile1000Val) with AD risk at present, even after stratification by ethnicity and APOE ε4 with genotypes of polymorphism sites. However, due to the heterogeneity in the meta-analysis, the results should be interpreted with caution. 相似文献

Folate is an essential nutrient with important roles in the synthesis, repair, and DNA methylation. Polymorphisms in genes encoding enzymes involved in folate metabolism can change these processes and modulate cancer development. We investigated DNMT3B C46359T (rs2424913) and SHMT1 C1420T (rs1979277) polymorphisms related to folate pathway in head and neck cancer (HNC) risk and the association of the disease with gender, risk factors and clinical histopathological parameters. A case–control study was conducted in 725 individuals (237 patients with HNC and 488 control individuals). Real-time PCR technique was performed for genotyping. Chi square and multiple logistic regression tests were used for statistical analysis. Male gender (OR 1.80; 95 % CI 1.11–2.94; P < 0.02) and tobacco consumption (OR 6.14; 95 % CI 4.13–9.13; P < 0.001) were associated with increased risk for this neoplasia. There were no significant associations between the polymorphisms and risk of disease, however, the tobacco and alcohol habits together showed association with SHMT1 C1420T polymorphism (OR 1.48; 95 % CI 1.08–2.03; P = 0.014). SHMT1 C1420T polymorphism was associated with larynx tumor (OR 0.48; 95 % CI 0.27–0.86; P < 0.05). In conclusion, tobacco habit and male gender can be predictors for HNC risk. SHMT1 C1420T and DNMT3B C46359T polymorphisms are not associated with HNC development in Brazilian population, however, SHMT1 C1420T polymorphism is less frequent in patients with primary site of tumor in larynx and more frequent in individuals who consume tobacco and alcohol together. Further studies involving gene–gene interactions in folate pathway in different populations can contribute to the understanding of the polymorphisms effect on HNC risk. 相似文献

Several potential functional polymorphisms in the DNA repair gene X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg399Gln (rs25487), Arg194Trp (rs1799782), Arg280His (rs25489) and X-ray repair cross-complementing group 3 (XRCC3) T241M (rs861539) have been implicated in colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, but the results are conflicting. Here, we performed a meta-analysis of 23 published case control datasets and assessed genetic heterogeneity between those datasets. All the case–control studies published from January 2000 to June 2012 on the association between those polymorphisms and CRC risk were identified by searching the electronic literature Medline. Statistical analysis was performed with the software programs Review Manager (version 4.2). For overall CRC, no significant association was observed, the pooled odds ratios for XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, Arg280His, and XRCC3 T241M were 1.02 (95 % CI: 0.93, 1.12), 1.03 (95 % CI: 0.94, 1.14), 0.98 (95 % CI: 0.85, 1.13) and 1.03 (95 % CI: 0.85, 1.26), respectively. Furthermore, no significant association was observed in subgroup analyses based on ethnicity. The results suggested that these four SNPs evaluated are not associated with risk of CRC. 相似文献

The RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted) and MBL (mannose binding lectin) single-nucleotide polymorphisms have been repeatedly associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but the findings are not consistent across studies. The aim of this study was to determine whether the functional RANTES-28, -403 and MBL2 A/O polymorphisms confer susceptibility to SLE in multiple ethnic populations. A meta-analysis was conducted (allelic contrast, the additive model, the dominant model and the recessive model) on RANTES with seven studies (four studies for RANTES-28: three Asian and one American studies; three studies for RANTES-403: two Asian and one European studies), MBL with eight studies (five European and three American studies). OR is used as a measure of the effect of the association in a fixed/random effects model. The meta-analysis indicated that none of the two polymorphisms in gene of the RANTES showed any significant association with SLE risk, respectively, except for the recessive model (OR = 1.24, 95 % CI: 1.01–1.52, P = 0.04) in all study subjects combined with the two polymorphisms. According to the MBL2 A/O polymorphism, the results indicated a significant association between the polymorphism and SLE in allelic contrast (OR = 0.83, 95 % CI: 0.73–0.93, P = 0.002). While stratified by ethnicity in European, no significant association was found. In summary, the present study suggests that the RANTES-28, -403 polymorphisms do not associate with SLE, but the MBL2 A/O polymorphism might associate with SLE. 相似文献

Fibroblast growth factors and their receptors (FGFRs) play important roles in blood system. FGFR4 rs351855 (Gly388Arg) polymorphism has shown to be a risk factor for many diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between FGFR4 polymorphisms and the susceptibility to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in the Chinese population. We identified two polymorphisms in the FGFR4 gene, rs351855G/A (Gly388Arg), and rs147603016G/A, by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in 412 NHL cases and 476 healthy controls. Results showed that frequencies of AA genotype and A allele in rs351855 (Gly388Arg) polymorphism were significantly higher in patients than in controls (odds ratio (OR) 2.12, 95 % confidence intervals (CI) 1.99–3.48, P < 0.0001; OR 1.45, 95 % CI 1.21–1.88, P < 0.0001, respectively; data were adjusted for age and sex). The rs147603016G/A polymorphism did not show any correlation with NHL. When analyzing the survival time of NHL patients with FGFR4 rs351855G/A polymorphism, cases with AA genotype had significantly shorter survival time compared to the patients with GG and GA genotypes (P = 0.002). These results suggested polymorphism in FGFR4 gene was associated with increased susceptibility to NHL and could be used as a prognostic marker for this malignancy. 相似文献
