EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism and lung cancer susceptibility in Asian populations: a meta-analysis

Objective

Polymorphisms of epoxide hydrolase 1 (EPHX1) rs2234922 have been reported to be associated with variations in EPHX1 activity. Many studies have investigated the association between EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism and lung cancer risk, but their results have been inconsistent. The purpose of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of all eligible studies to derive a more precise estimation of the associations of EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism with lung cancer.

Methods

The PubMed was searched for case-control studies published up to Oct 01, 2014. Data were extracted and pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. The pooled ORs for the risk associated with the genotypes of homozygote G/G and G allele carriers (A/G + G/G) with the A/A genotype were calculated. Heterogeneity assumption was checked by the chi-square-based Q-test. A P value greater than 0.10 for the Q-test indicates a lack of heterogeneity among studies, so the pooled OR estimate of the each study was calculated by the fixed-effects model (the Mantel-Haenszel method). Otherwise, the random-effects model (the DerSimonian and Laird method) was used.

Results

In this meta-analysis, we assessed eight published studies involving comprising 1,175 cases and 1,550 controls of the association between EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism and lung cancer risk. For the homozygote G/G and G allele carriers (A/G + G/G), the pooled ORs were 1.47 (95% CI: 1.18-1.79, P=0.007 for heterogeneity) and 1.36 (95% CI: 1.14-1.62, P=0.828 for heterogeneity), when compared with the homozygous wild-type genotype (A/A).

Conclusions

EPHX1 rs2234922 polymorphism contributes to risk of lung cancer among Asian population.

Association study of single nucleotide polymorphism in tryptophan hydroxylase 1 gene with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: A meta-analysis

Background:Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common spinal deformity among children and adolescents worldwide with its etiology uncertain. Over a decade, a single nucleotide polymorphism rs10488682 in tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) gene has been investigated in several association studies. We perform this study to summarize the current evidence of TPH1 rs10488682 polymorphisms and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS).Methods:Six databases were systematically searched: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Chinese Biomedical Literature, and Wanfang database. Eligible case–control studies related to TPH1 and AIS were selected. Reference lists of them were reviewed for more available studies. Two authors independently screened and evaluated the literature and extracted data. The odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were derived in association tests. Subgroup analysis was conducted by ethnicity. Sensitivity analysis was performed to examine the stability of the overall results.Results:A total of 1006 cases and 1557 controls in 3 independent studies were included for meta-analysis. Statistical significance was discovered in heterozygote model (AT vs AA: OR = 1.741, 95%Cl = 1.100–2.753, P = .018 < .05, I² = 0%), recessive model (AA vs AT + TT: OR = 0.640, 95%Cl = 0.414–0.990, P = .045 < .05, I² = 0%) and over-dominant model (AT vs AA + TT: OR = 1.366, 95%Cl = 1.115–1.673, P = .003 < .05, I² = 84.7%) in overall populations. Similar associations were also found in the Caucasian population. No significant associations were found in other genotypic comparisons and allelic comparisons.Conclusions:Statistically significant correlations were discovered between the TPH1 rs10488682 polymorphisms and AIS. Heterozygous AT genotype seems to be risky with an over-dominant effect. Ethnicity appears to modify the disease association.Registration:Not applicable.     

Polymorphisms of XRCC1 gene and risk of gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma

X-ray repair cross complementing 1 (XRCC1) protein plays an important role in base excision repair. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in XRCC1 gene may affect DNA repairing ability and genetic susceptibility to cancer. This study was designed to investigate the correlation of XRCC1 Arg194Trp Arg280His and Arg399Gln SNPs with the risk of gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma (GCA). Genotypes were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay in 455 patients with GCA and 650 age- and sex-matched controls. We did not find any significant difference in allele and genotype distributions of Arg194Trp Arg399Gln between the groups ( P  > 0.05). However, a significant increase in GCA risk was seen among smokers if they carried at least one XRCC1 280His ( Arg280His  +  His280His ) genotype (odds ratio = 1.59, 95% confidence interval = 1.01–2.51) compared with smokers not carrying these genotype. Our results indicated that XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg 399 Gln SNPs might not be associated with the risk of GCA. However, smokers with His allele at codon 280 had a significantly increased risk of GCA.     

Association between polymorphisms in the interleukin-10 gene and susceptibility to human immunodeficiency virus-1 infection: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Background:This study meta-analyzed the literature on possible association of 3 polymorphisms (-592, -1082, -819) in the interleukin-10 (IL-10) gene with susceptibility to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection.Methods:PubMed, EMBASE, MEDLINE and Google Scholar were systematically searched to identify relevant studies in English. Meta-analyses were performed to examine the association of IL-10 polymorphisms -592, -1082, and -819 with susceptibility to HIV-1 infection.Results:A significant association between the -592 polymorphism and susceptibility to HIV-1 infection was found in the total population (recessive model, odds ratios (OR) = 1.44, 95% CI = 1.06–1.96, P = .02; homozygous model, OR = 1.44, 95% CI = 1.02–2.02, P = .04). However, these results were not observed in subgroups based on ethnicity. The -1082 polymorphism was significantly associated with susceptibility to HIV-1 infection in Caucasians (OR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.05–1.62, P = .02; recessive model, OR = 1.49, 95% CI = 1.09–2.03, P = .01; homozygous model, OR = 1.58, 95% CI = 1.01–2.46, P = .04), but not in Asians or the total population. None of the 5 genetic models suggested a significant association between the -819 polymorphism and HIV-1 infection.Conclusion:The available evidence indicates that the AA genotype of IL-10 -592 may confer increased susceptibility to HIV-1 infection, and that the AA genotype of -1082 may confer increased susceptibility in Caucasians. In contrast, the -819 polymorphism may not be associated with HIV-1 infection risk. These conclusions should be verified in large, well-designed studies.

Association between rs735482 polymorphism and risk of cancer: A meta-analysis of 10 case–control studies

Several studies have inspected the relationship between rs735482 polymorphism and the risk of some human cancers, but the findings remain controversial. We designed this meta-analysis to validate the association between rs735482 polymorphism and cancer risk. All articles were published before September 1, 2018 and searched in Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WangFang, and Chinese BioMedical databases, STATA 12.0 software was used for statistical analysis, which provides reasonable data and technical support for this article. A total of 10 studies were included in the meta-analysis, including 2652 cancer cases and 3536 rs735482 polymorphic controls. Data were directly extracted from these studies and odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were computed to estimate the strength of the association. By pooling all eligible studies, the rs735482 polymorphism showed no significant association with susceptibility of several cancers in all the five genetic models (the allelic model: OR = 1.019, 95% CI: 0.916–1.134, P = .731). In addition, another adjusted OR data showed a significant increased risk between the rs735482 and susceptibility of several cancers (the codominant model BB vs AA: OR = 1.353, 95% CI: 1.033–1.774, P = .028) and the stratification analysis by ethnicity indicated the rs735482 is associated with an increased risk of cancer in Chinese group (BB vs AA, OR = 1.391, 95% CI = 1.054–1.837, P = .020; AB+BB vs AA OR = 1.253, 95% CI = 1.011–1.551, P = .039). However, the ERCC1 rs735482 is associated with a decreased risk of cancer in Italian group (AB vs AA, OR = 0.600, 95% CI = 0.402–0.859, P = .012; AB + BB vs AA, OR = 0.620, 95% CI = 0.424–0.908, P = .014). The results of this meta-analysis do not support the association between rs735482 polymorphism and cancer risk. But stratified analysis showed that rs735482 significantly increased the risk of cancer in Chinese while decreased the risk of cancer in Italian. Because of the limited number of samples, larger and well-designed researches are needed to estimate this association in detail.     

The correlation of BTLA rs1982809 polymorphism with cancer susceptibility: A meta-analysis of 8634 participators

Background:The connection between B and T lymphocyte attenuator rs1982809 polymorphism and cancer risk has been investigated by several studies and yielded different results. Therefore, we adopted the meta-analysis method to assess the association of rs1982809 polymorphism with the susceptibility of cancers synthetically.Methods:Eligible publications were gathered by retrieving PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Wan Fang, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure. We utilized odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) to assess correlation intensity and performed subgroup analyses, sensitivity analyses, and publication bias assessments.Results:Six researches that encompassed 3678 cases and 4866 controls were incorporated into our meta-analysis. The rs1982809 polymorphism was proved to be connected with cancer risk by the meta-analysis in the additive model (G vs A: OR = 1.11, 95% CI = 1.04–1.19, P_{heterogeneity} = .096). Subgroup analyses revealed that this SNP is regarded as a susceptible factor for cancers in the dominant, heterozygous, and additive model (AG + GG vs AA: OR = 1.46, 95% CI = 1.19–1.80, P_{heterogeneity} = .592; AG vs AA: OR = 1.47, 95% CI = 1.19–1.82, P_{heterogeneity} = .536; G vs A: OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.12–1.55, P_{heterogeneity} = .745) in Caucasians; And this SNP may increase the susceptibility to lung cancer (GG vs AG+AA: OR = 1.20, CI = 1.01–1.44, P_{heterogeneity} = .854; G vs A: OR = 1.17, CI = 1.02–1.33, P_{heterogeneity} = .232).Conclusion:The paper concludes that B and T lymphocyte attenuator rs1982809 polymorphism may contribute to cancers, especially in Caucasians, and it may associate with lung cancer.

Association between the CD209 promoter -336A/G polymorphism and susceptibility to tuberculosis: a meta-analysis

Background and objective: Dendritic cell‐specific intracellular adhesion molecule‐3 grabbing nonintegrin (DC‐SIGN), encoded by the CD209 gene, is a major Mycobacterium tuberculosis receptor on human dendritic cells. The potentially functional ?336A/G polymorphism in the CD209 promoter region has been associated with susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB), but the results have been inconclusive. We performed a meta‐analysis to clarify the relationship between the CD209?336A/G variant and the risk of TB. Methods: Ten studies involving a total of 2598 TB patients and 2614 control subjects were systematically reviewed, and the data were quantitatively synthesized by meta‐analysis. The Q‐test was applied to assess the heterogeneity of associations among the studies, and Egger's regression test was used to assess potential publication bias. Results: No significant association was identified between the CD209?336A/G polymorphism and risk of TB (G allele vs A allele: odds ratio (OR) 1.02, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.90–1.15). Moreover, no significant association was observed in populations of African ethnicity (OR 1.01, 95% CI 0.87–1.17) or among individuals who were negative for the human immunodeficiency virus (OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.84–1.15). Conclusions: This meta‐analysis has indicated that the CD209?336A/G polymorphism may not contribute to susceptibility to TB.     

Growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) insertion/deletion polymorphism and cancer susceptibility in Asian populations: A meta-analysis

Background:Previous studies have reported the association of an insertion/deletion (Ins/Del) polymorphism (rs145204276 AGGCA/-) in the promoter region of growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) with the risk of cancer, such as breast cancer, gastric cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma. However, the results are still controversial. We aimed to clarify the association of GAS5 rs145204276 polymorphism with cancer risk by meta-analysis.Methods:PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, and Cochrane Library were searched for studies concerning GAS5 and cancer published up to November 25, 2019. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate cancer risk.Results:A total of 12 case–control studies with 8729 cases and 10,807 controls were included in this meta-analysis. We found that the GAS5 rs145204276 polymorphism was not significantly associated with cancer risk (Del vs Ins: OR = 0.96, 95% CI: 0.81–1.13; Del/Del vs Ins/Ins: OR = 1.00, 95% CI: 0.70–1.43; Ins/Del vs Ins/Ins: OR = 0.92, 95% CI: 0.78–1.08; Ins/Del and Del/Del vs Ins/Ins: OR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.76–1.13; Del/Del vs Ins/Del and Ins/Ins: OR = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.78–1.38). In the stratified analyses, significant effects on gastric cancer were found (Del vs Ins: OR = 0.79, 95% CI: 0.72–0.86; Del/Del vs Ins/Ins: OR = 0.65, 95% CI: 0.52–0.82; Ins/Del vs Ins/Ins: OR = 0.76, 95% CI: 0.68–0.86; Ins/Del + Del/Del vs Ins/Ins: OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.66–0.83; Del/Del vs Ins/Ins + Ins/Del: OR = 0.74, 95% CI: 0.59–0.91).Conclusion:Our meta-analysis showed that GAS5 rs145204276 polymorphisms were not related to overall cancer risk. However, the GAS5 rs145204276 polymorphism may be a protective factor for gastric cancer in the stratification analyses.

ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms rs2681472 and rs17249754 are associated with susceptibility to hypertension and blood pressure levels: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Objective:The present study aimed to conduct a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate the relationships between ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms with blood pressure (BP) level and susceptibility to hypertension.Methods:PubMed, Web of Science, Embase and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) Databases were systematically searched by 2 independent researchers to screen studies on ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms and BP related phenotypes. The records retrieval period was limited from the formation of the database to March 4, 2021. Pooled odds rations (ORs) or β and their 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were calculated to assess the association between ATP2B1 gene polymorphisms and the risk of hypertension or BP levels. Publication bias and sensitivity analysis were conducted to find potential bias. All the statistical analysis were conducted with Stata version 11.0 software.Results:A total of 15 articles were ultimately included in the present study, including 15 polymorphisms of ATP2B1 gene. Nine articles (N = 65,362) reported the polymorphism rs17249754, and 7 articles(N = 91,997) reported rs2681472 (both loci were reported in 1 article). Meta-analysis showed that rs17249754 (G/A) and rs2681472 (A/G) were associated with the susceptibility to hypertension (rs17249754: OR = 1.19, 95%CI: 1.10–1.28; rs2681472: OR = 1.15, 95%CI: 1.12–1.17), and were positively associated with systolic BP (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (rs17249754: SBP, β=1.01, 95%CI: 0.86–1.16, DBP, β=0.48, 95%CI: 0.30–0.66; rs2681472: SBP, β=0.92, 95%CI: 0.77–1.07, DBP, β=0.50, 95%CI: 0.42–0.58) in the additive genetic model. Subgroup analysis stratified by race, population, sample size, and BP measurement method revealed that the association between A allele in rs2681472 polymorphism and risk of hypertension was slightly stronger in European (EUR) populations (OR = 1.16, 95%CI: 1.13–1.20) than in East Asians (OR = 1.14, 95%CI: 1.10–1.17). While in East Asians, relation between rs17249754 with risk of hypertension (OR = 1.19, 95%CI: 1.10–1.28) is stronger than rs2681472 (OR = 1.14, 95%CI: 1.10–1.17).Conclusions:Our study demonstrated that ATP2B1 gene polymorphism rs2681472 and rs17249754 were associated with BP levels and the susceptibility to hypertension.
