Esophageal cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Esophageal cancer is very aggressive; genetic polymorphisms may explain in part the individual differences in esophageal cancer susceptibility. We conducted a hospital based case–control study to evaluate the genetic effects of functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the interleukin (IL)-15 and IL-15 receptor alpha (IL-15RA) gene on the development of esophageal cancer. A total of 380 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases and 380 controls were recruited for this study. The genotypes were determined using a custom-by-design 48-Plex SNPscanTM kit. The IL-15RA rs2228059 A>C polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk of ESCC in a recessive genetic model; However, there was no significant association between the other five SNPs and ESCC risk. Stratified analyses indicated a significantly decreased risk of ESCC associated with the IL-15RA rs2228059 A>C polymorphism was evident among male, older, non-smoker, and non-drinker patients. These findings indicated that the functional polymorphism, IL-15RA rs2228059 A>C, might contribute to ESCC susceptibility. However, the statistical power of our study was limited because of the moderate sample size and absence of a validation cohort. Large well-designed studies are warranted to confirm our findings. 相似文献

Esophageal cancer was the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in China in 2009. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accounts for more than 90% of esophageal cancers. Besides environmental risk factors, genetic factors such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) play an important role in ESCC carcinogenesis. We performed a hospital-based case–control study to evaluate the Forkhead-box protein A1 (FOXA1) rs12894364 C?>?T, rs2145146 C?>?A and rs7144658 T?>?C tag SNPs in the risk of developing ESCC. We recruited 629 ESCC cases and 686 controls. Genotypes were determined using ligation detection reaction. Logistic regression analyses revealed that the three FOXA1 SNPs were not associated with ESCC risk. However, there was significantly decreased ESCC risk associated with the FOXA1 rs12894364 C?>?T and rs2145146 C?>?A polymorphisms among older patients. There was significantly increased ESCC risk associated with the FOXA1 rs7144658 T?>?C polymorphism among male patients. This study demonstrates an association between FOXA1 polymorphisms and ESCC susceptibility. Additional larger studies are required to confirm our findings. 相似文献

Esophageal cancer is the eighth most common cancer and sixth leading cause of cancer associated death worldwide. Besides environmental risk factors, genetic factors might play an important role in the esophageal cancer carcinogenesis. We conducted a hospital based case–control study to evaluate the genetic susceptibility of functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the microRNAs on the development of esophageal cancer. A total of 629 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases and 686 controls were recruited for this study. The hsa-miR-34b/c rs4938723 T>C, pri-miR-124-1 rs531564 C>G, pre-miR-125a rs12975333 G>T and hsa-miR-423 rs6505162 C>A genotypes were determined using Ligation Detection Reaction (LDR) method. Our results demonstrated that hsa-miR-34b/c rs4938723 CC genotype had a decreased risk of ESCC. The association was evident among patients who never drinking. Hsa-miR-423 rs6505162 C>A might associated with a significantly increased risk of ESCC in patients who smoking. These findings indicated that functional polymorphisms hsa-miR-34b/c rs4938723 T>C and hsa-miR-423 rs6505162 C>A might alter individual susceptibility to ESCC. However, our results were obtained with a limited sample size. Future larger studies with other ethnic populations are required to confirm current findings. 相似文献

A novel functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2274223 located in the phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) gene was found to be associated with the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) by three large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in Chinese populations. In the present study, we validated this finding and also explored the risk of ESCC associated with other two unreported potentially functional SNPs (rs17417407 G > T and rs2274224 C > G) of PLCE1 in a population-based case–control study to investigate the association between these three potentially functional SNPs in PLCE1 and susceptibility to ESCC. A total of 381 ESCC cases and 420 controls matched by age and sex were recruited and successfully genotyped for three SNPs (rs17417407, rs2274223 and rs2274224) of the PLCE1 in a central Chinese population. SNP rs2274223 was independently associated with increased risk of ESCC (adjusted odds ratio [OR], 2.80; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.45–5.39 for GG vs. AA), and SNP rs2274224 was found to be associated with decreased risk of ESCC (adjusted OR, 0.65; 95% CI, 0.46–0.91 for CG vs. CC). The combined effects of risk alleles for three SNPs (rs17417407T, rs2274223G and rs2274224G) were found to be associated with elevated risk of ESCC in a dose-dependent effect manner (Ptrend = 0.005). The Grs17417407Ars2274223Crs2274224 haplotype decreased the risk of ESCC (adjusted OR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.62–0.93), meanwhile the Grs17417407Grs2274223Crs2274224 and Trs17417407Grs2274223Crs2274224 haplotypes could increase the risk of ESCC (adjusted OR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.33–2.18 and OR, 2.51; 95% CI, 1.15–2.49). Gene–environment interaction analysis presented a best model consisted of four factors (rs2274223, rs2274224, family history, and smoking) with testing balance accuracy (TBA): 0.66 and cross validation consistency (CVC): 7/10, which could increase the esophageal cancer risk in the “high risk group” with 3.67-fold (OR: 3.67, 95% CI: 2.74–4.92), compared to the “low risk group”. Our results further confirmed that genetic variations in PLCE1 may contribute to ESCC risk associated with tobacco exposure in a central Chinese population. Further functional studies are needed to validate our results. 相似文献

Objective
Esophageal cancer was the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in China in 2009. Genetic factors might play an important role in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) carcinogenesis.Designs and Methods
To evaluate the effect p21, p53, TP53BP1 and p73 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the risk of ESCC, we conducted a hospital based case–control study. A total of 629 ESCC cases and 686 controls were recruited. Their genotypes were determined using ligation detection reaction (LDR) method.Results
When the p21 rs3176352 GG homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, the CC genotype was associated with a significantly increased risk of ESCC. When the p73 rs1801173 CC homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, the CT genotype was associated with a significantly increased risk of ESCC. After Bonferroni correction, for p21 rs3176352 G>C, the p correct was still significant. For the other six SNPs, in all comparison models, no association between the polymorphisms and ESCC risk was observed.Conclusions
p21 rs3176352 G>C and p73 rs1801173 C>T SNPs are associated with increased risk of ESCC. To confirm the current findings, additional, larger studies and tissue-specific biological characterization are required. 相似文献6.

Background
Esophageal cancer was the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in China in 2009. Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) accounts for more than 90 percent of esophageal cancers. Genetic factors probably play an important role in the ESCC carcinogenesis.Methods
We conducted a hospital based case-control study to evaluate functional hTERT rs2736098 G>A and TERT-CLPTM1L rs401681 C>T single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the risk of ESCC. Six hundred and twenty-nine ESCC cases and 686 controls were recruited. Their genotypes were determined using the ligation detection reaction (LDR) method.Results
When the TERT-CLPTM1L rs401681 CC homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, the CT genotype was associated with a significantly decreased risk of ESCC (adjusted OR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.58–0.94, p = 0.012); the CT/TT variants were associated with a 26% decreased risk of ESCC (adjusted OR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.59–0.93, P = 0.009). The significantly decreased risk of ESCC associated with the TERT-CLPTM1L rs401681 C>T polymorphism was associated with male sex, young age (<63 years in our study) and alcohol consumption. No association between the hTERT rs2736098 G>A polymorphism and ESCC risk was observed.Conclusion
TERT-CLPTM1L rs401681 CT and CT/TT genotypes were associated with decreased risk of ESCC, particularly among men, young patients and those reported to be drinkers. However, our results are preliminary conclusions. Larger studies with more rigorous study designs are required to confirm the current findings. 相似文献7.

Esophageal cancer remains the sixth leading cause of cancer associated death and eighth most common cancer worldwide. Genetic factors, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), may contribute to the carcinogenesis of esophageal cancer. Here, we conducted a hospital based case-control study to evaluate the genetic susceptibility of functional SNPs on the development of esophageal cancer. A total of 629 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases and 686 controls were enrolled for this study. The OPG rs3102735 T>C, rs2073618 G>C, RANK rs1805034 T>C, RANKL rs9533156 T>C and rs2277438 A>G were determined by ligation detection reaction method. Our findings suggested that RANK rs1805034 T>C is associated with the susceptibility of ESCC, which is more evident in male and elder (≥63) patients. Our study provides the first evidence that functional polymorphisms RANK rs1805034 T>C may be an indicator for individual susceptibility to ESCC. However, further larger studies among different ethnic populations are warranted to verify our conclusion. 相似文献

Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) protein plays an important role in the DNA repair process by cutting the damaged DNA at the 3′ terminus. Previous studies have indicated some polymorphisms in the XPG gene are associated with stomach cancer susceptibility. We performed this hospital‐based case–control study to evaluate the association of four potentially functional XPG polymorphisms (rs2094258 C>T, rs751402 C>T, rs2296147 T>C and rs873601G>A) with stomach cancer susceptibility. The four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped in 692 stomach cancer cases and 771 healthy controls. Logistic regression analysis was conducted, and odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association of interest. Of the studied SNPs, XPG rs873601G>A polymorphism was found to significantly associate with stomach cancer susceptibility (AA versus GG/AG: OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.03–1.66, P = 0.027). Combined analysis of all SNPs revealed that the individuals with two of risk genotypes had a significantly increased stomach cancer risk (OR = 1.52, 95% CI = 1.13–2.06). In the stratification analysis, the association between the rs873601AA genotype and stomach cancer risk was observed in older group (>59 year), as well as patients with non‐cardia stomach cancer. Further combined analysis indicated men, smokers, or non‐drinkers more than one risk genotypes had a significantly increased stomach cancer risk. Our results indicate that XPG rs873601G>A polymorphism may be associated with the risk of stomach cancer. Further prospective studies with different ethnicities and large sample sizes are needed to validate our findings. 相似文献

Esophageal cancer is one of the most aggressive cancers in the world. Recent large-scale genome-wide association studies (GWAS) reported that functional genetic variations in the phospholipase C epsilon gene (PLCE1) were strongly associated with risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA) in Chinese population. For C20orf54 rs13042395 genotype and risk of esophageal cancer, the results were inconsistent. We conducted a replication case-control study to evaluate the genetic effects of these two functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the development of esophageal cancer. A total of 380 cases and 380 controls were recruited for this study. The genotypes were determined by matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-ToF MS). The variant alleles of the functional polymorphism, PLCE1 rs2274223 SNP was associated with the increased risk of esophageal cancer [adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 1.95, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 1.05-3.59 for PLCE1 rs2274223 GG vs. AA]. However, there was no significant association between the C20orf54 rs13042395 genotype and esophageal cancer risk (adjusted OR = 0.99, 95 % CI = 0.63-1.57 for C20orf54 rs13042395 TT vs. CC). Stratified analyses indicated a significantly increased risk of esophageal cancer associated with the PLCE1 rs2274223 AG genotype was more evident among females, younger patients and never drinkers, compared with the PLCE1 rs2274223 AA genotypes. Stratified analyses also indicated a significantly increased risk of esophageal cancer associated with the PLCE1 rs2274223 GG genotype was more evident among never smokers and never drinkers compared with the PLCE1 rs2274223 AA genotypes. These findings indicated that functional polymorphisms PLCE1 rs2274223 might contribute to esophageal cancer susceptibility. 相似文献

AbstractObjective: To investigate the association of caveolin-1 (CAV1) genetic variants (C239A (rs1997623), G14713A (rs3807987), G21985A (rs12672038), T29107A (rs7804372)) with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) susceptibility.Methods: A total of 427 patients with ESCC and 427 healthy controls were genotyped using the polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method.Results: There were significant differences between patients and controls in distributions of their genotypes and allelic frequencies in G14713A and T29107A polymorphisms. Furthermore, haplotype analysis revealed that haplotypes CAAT and CAGT were associated with high risk for ESCC, while haplotype CGGA was protective against ESCC. Stratified analysis showed the associations between the SNPs (G14713A and T29107A) and ESCC risk were noteworthy among female patients and patients who never smoke or drank alcohol.Conclusions: Genetic polymorphisms of CAV1 G14713A and T29107A might affect an individual’s susceptibility in developing ESCC, making them efficient potential genetic biomarkers for early detection of ESCC. 相似文献

Although recent genome-wide association studies of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) identified a susceptibility locus in phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) in Chinese Han populations, few studies further confirmed these findings in pure Kazakh population in which there are higher incidence and mortality of ESCC. Here, we investigated the potential associations between 19 SNPs of PLCE1 and susceptibility to ESCC in 222 cases and 326 controls from a pure ethnic population of Kazakh. Real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry were performed to detect the PLCE1 expression levels and evaluate their association with PLCE1 polymorphism. We found that only 4 SNPs (rs753724, rs11187842, rs2274223, and rs12263737) with moderate linkage disequilibrium (LD) confer significantly increased risk of ESCC, with the ORs ranging from 1.43 to 2.04, and there was a risk allele dose-dependent increase in ESCC risk (P-trend = 0.043). Especially, the risk effects of rs2274223 were more evident in poor differentiation and advanced clinical stages of Kazakh ESCC. Additionally, the significantly lowest PLCE1 mRNA expression was found in the KYSE-150 cell line having no risk alleles compared with other three cell lines having risk alleles, and the normal tissues of both homozygous mutant type of PLCE1 rs12263737 and rs2274223 had a higher PLCE1 staining score than that of homozygous wild type. Our findings suggested that genetic variants in PLCE1 might serve as candidate markers for Kazakh ESCC susceptibility, and these LD variants might influence ESCC risk individually and jointly by promoting the messenger RNA and protein expression of the gene. 相似文献

Growing evidence suggests that the checkpoint kinase 2 (CHEK2) signaling pathway occupies a central position in the signaling
networks of DNA-damage signaling. Many functional and molecular epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between
genetic variants of CHEK2 and various cancers. To evaluate the relationship between CHEK2 functional genetic variants and esophageal cancer risk and the risk of lymph node metastasis among a Chinese population.
We genotyped CHEK2 rs738722, rs2236141 and rs2236142 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using the matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization
time-of-flight mass spectrometry assay in a case–controlled study, including 380 esophageal cancer cases and 380 healthy controls
in a Chinese population. We found that none of the three polymorphisms achieved significant difference in their distributions
between esophageal cancer cases and controls. Multiple logistic regression analyses revealed that esophageal cancer risk was
not associated significantly with the variant genotypes of the three CHEK2 polymorphisms as compared with their wild-type genotypes. However, we found that functional variant rs738722 and rs2236142
in CHEK2 might contribute to susceptibility to lymph node metastasis. Our data did not support a significant association between CHEK2 SNPs and the risk of esophageal cancer. Functional variant CHEK2 rs738722 and rs2236142 might contribute to lymph node metastasis susceptibility. The CT allele of SNP rs738722 and the GC
allele of SNP rs2236142 might be a protective factor of the risk for lymph node metastasis of esophageal cancer. 相似文献

Epidemiological evidence has shown two polymorphisms (namely RS#1800468G > A and RS#1800471G > C) of transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-β1) gene may be involved in the cancer development. However, their role in the carcinogenic process of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) has been less well elaborated. We conducted a hospital-based case-control study including 391 ESCC cases and 508 controls without any evidence of tumors to evaluate the association between these two polymorphisms and ESCC risk and prognosis for Zhuangese population by means of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS)-PCR techniques. We found that individuals with the genotypes with RS#1800471 C allele (namely RS#1800471-GC or -CC) had an increased risk of ESCC than those without above genotypes (namely RS#1800471-GG, adjusted odds ratio 3.26 and 5.65, respectively). Further stratification analysis showed that this polymorphism was correlated with tumor histological grades and TNM (tumor, node, and metastasis) stage, and modified the serum levels of TGF-β1. Additionally, RS#1800471 polymorphism affected ESCC prognosis (hazard ratio, 3.40), especially under high serum levels of TGF-β1 conditions. However, RS#1800468 polymorphism was not significantly related to ESCC risk. These findings indicated that TGF-β1 RS#1800471G > C polymorphism may be a genetic modifier for developing ESCC in Zhuangese population. 相似文献

Several studies inspected the relationship between caspase-3 (CASP3) polymorphisms and the risk of several human cancers, but the findings remain controversial. We conducted a meta-analysis aiming to inspect the association between CASP3 rs1049216 T>C, rs12108497 C>T, rs4647603 G>A, rs4647602 C>A, rs6948 T>G, rs2705897 A>C, and rs113420705 G>A polymorphisms and cancer risk. Eligible studies were recognized by searching the Web of Science, PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar databases. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to quantitatively evaluate the association between each polymorphism of CASP3 and cancer risk. The rs4647603 variant significantly increased the risk of cancer in an overdominant (OR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.03-2.01; P = 0.03; AG vs AA+GG) inheritance model. Regarding the rs4647602 variant, the findings revealed that this variant was associated with protection against cancer in homozygous codominant (OR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.56-0.80; P < 0.00001; AA vs CC), dominant (OR, 0.84; 95% CI, 0.73-0.96; P = 0.009; AC+AA vs CC), recessive (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.61-0.79; P < 0.00001; AA vs AC+CC), and allele (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.75-0.88; P = 0.00001; A vs C) models. The findings suggested that the rs2705897 variant significantly decreased the risk of cancer in heterozygous codominant (OR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.67-0.94; P = 0.009; AC vs AA), dominant (OR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.69-0.95; P = 0.009; AC+CC vs AA), overdominant (OR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.68-0.95; P = 0.01; AC vs CC+AA), and allele (OR, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.74-0.97; P = 0.02; C vs A) models. The results did not support an association between CASP3 rs1049216 and rs6948 polymorphisms and cancer risk. In summary, the findings of this meta-analysis support an association between CASP3 polymorphisms and cancer risk. Larger and well-designed studies are desired to evaluate these associations in detail. 相似文献

Background
Excision repair cross complementing group 5 (ERCC5 or XPG) plays an important role in regulating DNA excision repair; its functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may alter DNA repair capacity and thus contribute to cancer risk.Methodology/Principal Findings
In a hospital-based case-control study of 1115 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases and 1117 cancer-free controls, we genotyped three potentially functional SNPs of ERCC5 (SNPs, rs2296147T>C, rs2094258C>T and rs873601G>A) and estimated crude and adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for their associations with risk of ESCC using unconditional logistic regression models. We also calculated false-positive report probabilities (FPRPs) for significant findings. We found that compared with the TT genotype, ERCC5 rs2296147 C variant genotypes were associated with a significantly lower ESCC risk (CT: adjusted OR = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.63–0.93, CT/CC: adjusted OR = 0.80, 95% CI = 0.67–0.96); however, this risk was not observed for the other two SNPs (rs2094258C>T and rs873601 G>A), nor in further stratification and haplotype analysis.Conclusions/Significances
These findings suggested that ERCC5 polymorphisms may contribute to risk of ESCC in Eastern Chinese populations, but the effect was weak and needs further validation by larger population-based case-control studies. 相似文献17.

Background
Accumulated evidences demonstrated that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in mRNA 3''-untranslated region (3''-UTR) may impact microRNAs (miRNAs)-mediated expression regulation of oncogenes and tumor suppressors. There is a TNFAIP2 3''-UTR rs8126 T>C genetic variant which has been proved to be associated with head and neck cancer susceptibility. This SNP could disturb binding of miR-184 with TNFAIP2 mRNA and influence TNFAIP2 regulation. However, it is still unclear how this polymorphism is involved in development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). Therefore, we hypothesized that the functional TNFAIP2 rs8126 SNP may affect TNFAIP2 expression and, thus, ESCC risk.Methods
We investigated the association between the TNFAIP2 rs8126 variant and ESCC risk as well as the functional relevance on TNFAIP2 expression in vivo. Genotypes were determined in a case-control set consisted of 588 ESCC patients and 600 controls. The allele-specific regulation on TNFAIP2 expression by the rs8126 SNP was examined in normal and cancerous tissue specimens of esophagus.Results
We found that individuals carrying the rs8126 CC or CT genotype had an OR of 1.89 (95%CI = 1.23–2.85, P = 0.003) or 1.38 (95%CI = 1.05–1.73, P = 0.017) for developing ESCC in Chinese compared with individual carrying the TT genotype. Carriers of the rs8126 CC and CT genotypes had significantly lower TNFAIP2 mRNA levels than those with the TT genotypes in normal esophagus tissues (P<0.05).Conclusions
Our data demonstrate that functional TNFAIP2 rs8126 genetic variant is a ESCC susceptibility SNP. These results support the hypothesis that genetic variants interrupting miRNA-mediated gene regulation might be important genetic modifiers of cancer risk. 相似文献18.

Little is known about the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and haplotypes of the dedicator of cytokinesis 7 (DOCK7), pro‐protein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and polypeptide N‐acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 2 (GALNT2) and serum lipid traits in the Chinese populations. This study was to determine the association between nine SNPs in the three genes and their haplotypes and hypercholesterolaemia (HCH)/hypertriglyceridaemia (HTG), and to identify the possible gene–gene interactions among these SNPs. Genotyping was performed in 733 HCH and 540 HTG participants. The haplotype of C‐C‐G‐C‐T‐G‐C‐C‐G [in the order of DOCK7 rs1168013 (G>C), rs10889332 (C>T); PCSK9 rs615563 (G>A), rs7552841 (C>T), rs11206517 (T>G); and GALNT2 rs1997947 (G>A), rs2760537 (C>T), rs4846913 (C>A) and rs11122316 (G>A) SNPs] was associated with increased risk of HCH and HTG. The haplotypes of C‐C‐G‐C‐T‐G‐C‐C‐A and G‐C‐G‐T‐T‐G‐T‐C‐G were associated with a reduced risk of HCH and HTG. The haplotypes of G‐C‐G‐C‐T‐G‐C‐C‐A and G‐C‐G‐C‐T‐G‐T‐C‐G were associated with increased risk of HCH. The haplotypes of C‐T‐G‐C‐T‐G‐C‐C‐G, G‐C‐A‐C‐T‐G‐C‐C‐G and G‐C‐G‐C‐T‐G‐C‐C‐A were associated with an increased risk of HTG. The haplotypes of G‐C‐G‐C‐T‐G‐T‐C‐A and G‐C‐G‐T‐T‐G‐T‐C‐G were associated with a reduced risk of HTG. In addition, possible inter‐locus interactions among the DOCK7, PCSK9 and GALNT2 SNPs were also noted. However, further functional studies of these genes are still required to clarify which SNPs are functional and how these genes actually affect the serum lipid levels. 相似文献

Genetic instability resulting from mutations in repair genes or denaturation in DNA synthesis has been reported to play an important role in the development of cancer. Through studies of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), X-ray repair cross-complementing groups 1 (XRCC1), which is an enzyme involved in the process of base repair, has been reported to be linked to the development of cancer. Recently, their roles in other causes of morbidity have also attracted considerable interest. Thus the present case-control study was conducted to determine the possibility of an association betweenXRCC1 polymorphisms and stomach cancer among Korean subjects. The study subjects were composed of 187 patients with stomach cancer, and 206 control subjects with no evidence of any malignancy or premalignant lesions. All the subjects were analyzed for polymorphisms of theXRCC1 gene by means of polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism.XRCC1 Arg l94Trp(C>T), Arg280His(G>A) and Arg399Gln(G>A) polymorphism. showed no significant link to the development of stomach cancer. Heterozygous mutations ofXRCC1 Argl94Trp (C>T) and Arg280His(G>A) polyroorphisms, bowever, shewed the tendency to be linked to an increased development of intestinal cancer. The haplotypes ofXRCC1 Arg l94Trp(C>T), Arg280His(G>A) and Arg399Gln(G>A) poIymorphisms were associated with an increased risk of development of stomach cancer among individuals with intestinal and diffuse types. We thus conclude that the haplotypes ofXRCC1 polymorphisms are associated with an increased risk of development of stomach cancer. 相似文献

A recently published genome-wide association study (GWAS) in European populations identified several loci at 4q21, 4q23 and 12q24 that were associated with risk of upper aerodigestive tract (UADT) cancers, including esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In the current study, we conducted a case–control study in a Chinese population including 2,139 ESCC cases and 2,273 controls to evaluate the associations of six reported single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs1494961, rs1229984, rs1789924, rs971074, rs671 and rs4767364) with risk of ESCC. We found significant association with risk of ESCC for four SNPs, including rs1494961 in HEL308 at 4q21 [odds ratio (OR) = 1.15, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 1.05–1.26], rs1229984 in ADH1B at 4q23 (OR = 1.24, 95 % CI = 1.13–1.36) and rs1789924 near ADH1C at 4q23 (OR = 1.20, 95 % CI = 1.03-1.39), and rs671 in ALDH2 at 12q24 (OR = 0.83, 95 % CI = 0.75–0.91). Combined analysis of these four SNPs showed a significant allele-dosage effect on ESCC risk for individuals with different number of risk alleles (P trend = 2.23 × 10?11). Compared with individuals with “0–2” risk allele, those carrying “3”, “4” or “5 or more” risk alleles had 1.42-, 1.66-, or 1.76-fold risk of ESCC, respectively. Thus, our findings indicate that rs1494961 at 4q21, rs1229984 and rs1789924 at 4q23, and rs671 at 12q24 may be used as genetic biomarkers for ESCC susceptibility in Chinese population. 相似文献
