CYP1A1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 polymorphisms, smoking, and lung cancer risk in a pooled analysis among Asian populations

To evaluate the roles of CYP1A1 polymorphisms [Ile 462Val and T 6235C (MspI)] and deletion of GSTM1 and GSTT1 in lung cancer development in Asian populations, a pooled analysis was conducted on 13 existing studies included in Genetic Susceptibility to Environmental Carcinogenesis database. This pooled analysis included 1,971 cases and 2,130 controls. Lung cancer risk was estimated as odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) using unconditional logistic regression model adjusting for age, sex, and pack-year. The CYP1A1 6235C variant was associated with squamous cell lung cancer (TC versus TT: OR, 1.42; 95% CI, 0.96-2.09; CC versus TT: OR, 1.97; 95% CI, 1.26-3.07; P trend = 0.003). In haplotype analysis, 462Val-6235T and Ile-C haplotypes were associated with lung cancer risk with reference to the Ile-T haplotype (OR, 3.41; 95% CI, 1.78-6.53 and OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.12-1.71, respectively). The GSTM1-null genotype increased squamous cell lung cancer risk (OR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.05-1.77). When the interaction was evaluated with smoking, increasing trend of lung cancer risk as pack-year increased was stronger among those with the CYP1A1 6235 TC/CC genotype compared with those with TT genotype (P interaction = 0.001) and with the GSTM1-null genotype compared with the present type (Pinteraction = 0.08, when no genotype effect with no exposure was assumed). These results suggest that genetic polymorphisms in CYP1A1 and GSTM1 are associated with lung cancer risk in Asian populations. However, further investigation is warranted considering the relatively small sample size when subgroup analyses were done and the lack of environmental exposure data other than smoking.     

CYP1A1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms and lung cancer risk in Chinese populations: a meta-analysis

Genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome p450 (CYP1A1) and glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) genes are thought to have significant effects on the metabolism of environmental carcinogens and thus on cancer risk, but the reported results are not always consistent. In this meta-analysis, we assessed reported studies of associations between polymorphisms of these two genes and risk of lung cancer in Chinese populations. Through a systematic literature search for publications between 1989 and 2006, we summarized the data from 46 studies on polymorphisms of MspI and exon7-Val of CYP1A1 and GSTM1 and lung cancer risk in Chinese populations, and found that compared with the wild-type homozygous genotype (type A), lung cancer risk for the combined variant genotypes (types B and C) was 1.34-fold (95% confidence interval [CI]=1.08-1.67) (Z=2.64, P=0.008); the risk for the combined variant genotypes (Ile/Val and Val/Val) of CYP1A1 exon7 was 1.61-fold (95% CI=1.24-2.08) (Z=3.62, P<0.001), compared with the Ile/Ile genotype; and that the risk for the GSTM1 null genotype was 1.54-fold (95% CI=1.31-1.80) (Z=5.32, P<0.001), compared with the GSTM1 present genotype. Therefore, in 46 published studies in Chinese populations, we found evidence of an association between the CYP1A1 variant and GSTM1 null genotypes and increased risk of lung cancer.     

Ethnic susceptibility to lung cancer: differences in CYP2E1, CYP1A1 and GSTM1 genetic polymorphisms between French Caucasian and Chilean populations.

Many investigators have reported an association between genetic polymorphisms of cytochromes P-450 CYP2E1, CYP1A1 or glutathione S-transferase Mu (GSTM1) and susceptibility to lung cancer. However, pronounced interethnic variations have been described in the frequencies of these polymorphisms, especially between Asians and Caucasians. The present study was set up to establish CYP2E1 (c1, c2 and C, D), CYP1A1 (m1, m2 and Ile, Val) and GSTM1 (null) allelic frequencies in Chileans (n = 96) who are an admixture of Native Americans and Caucasians (Spaniards). The rare allele frequencies were found to be 0.15 (c2), 0.21 (C), 0.23 (m2), 0.32 (Val) and 0.21 ('null' genotype). These values are significantly higher than those of Caucasians except for the GSTM1 'null' genotype and suggest differences in susceptibility to lung cancer between both populations.     

CYP1A1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms in relation to lung cancer risk in Chinese women

We examined CYP1A1 (I462V) and GSTM1 null polymorphisms in 200 female cases and 144 female controls selected from a population-based case-control study of lung cancer conducted in northeast China, where the rates of lung cancer among Chinese women are especially high. The CYP1A1 codon 462 point mutation in exon 7 (I462V) causes an Ile-Val substitution near the heme binding site. This mutation correlates with inducibility of aryl hydrocarbon hydrolase (AHH) activity, which activates polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in tobacco smoke and in indoor air pollution from coal-burning stoves, a risk factor for lung cancer in this study population. We found that the CYP1A1 I462V genotype (combined ile/val and val/val) was significantly associated with lung cancer risk. The odds ratio (OR) was 2.5 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.55-4.03) after adjustment for significant risk factors such as age, ever smoking status, family history of cancer, and eye irritation when cooking. The association was more pronounced among non-smokers (OR=3.67; 95% CI, 1.85-7.28) than among smokers (OR=1.74, 95% CI, 0.85-3.54). In contrast, we did not find a significant association with the GSTM1 null genotype. In summary, our case-control study of lung cancer among women in northeast China revealed an elevated risk associated with the CYP1A1 I462V genotype, but no interaction with smoking or indoor air pollution was found.     

Combined effects of CYP1A1 MspI and GSTM1 genetic polymorphisms on risk of lung cancer: an updated meta-analysis

Genetic polymorphisms of cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) and glutathione S-transferase M1 (GSTM1) genes might contribute to the variability in individual susceptibility to lung cancer, but the reported results from individual studies are not always consistent. We therefore conducted a meta-analysis to systematically estimate the associations between polymorphisms of these two genes and risk of lung cancer. Twenty-one studies with 8,926 subjects were finally enrolled into this study. Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.2. Odds ratio (OR) and its 95 % confidence interval (CI) were calculated to evaluate the susceptibility to lung cancer. Compared with the wild-type homozygous genotype, significantly elevated risk of lung cancer were associated with variant CYP1A1 MspI (m1/m2?+?m2/m2 vs. m1/m1: OR?=?1.27, 95 % CI?=?1.12–1.43, P?P?P?相似文献   

Genetic polymorphisms of CYP1A1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes and lung cancer risk

Genetic polymorphisms of the genes encoding for the xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes result in individual variations in the efficiency of detoxification of environmental carcinogens, and have been extensively associated with variable risk for lung neoplasms in different ethnic and environmental backgrounds. In this study, using PCR-RFLP based assays, we investigated the distribution of genetic polymorphisms in CYP1A1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in Greek lung cancer patients (N=122) and healthy controls (N=178). The frequency of CYP1A1 m1 homozygous genotype was 0.04 in patients and 0.02 in controls (detected in 4.10% of patients and in 1.69% of controls, respectively), that of GSTM1 null genotype was 0.52 in patients and 0.54 in controls, whereas those of GSTT1 null genotype was 0.17 and 0.11, in patients and controls, respectively. The GSTM1 null genotype was more frequent in adenocarcinoma, as well as in lung cancer patients with history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The GSTT1 null genotype correlated with advanced age of the patients at the time of diagnosis. Three combinations of rare genotypes - in subjects carrying simultaneously deviations from the common genotype in more than one gene - were over-represented in lung cancer patients, compared to control population, and were furthermore significantly associated with history of heavy tobacco consumption in lung cancer patients. The results imply involvement of specific genotype combinations of CYP1A1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 alleles in the development of lung cancer in heavy smokers.     

Association between CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms and lung cancer risk: A meta-analysis

Genetic variations in metabolic genes are thought to modify the metabolic process of carcinogens and are suggested to be related to cancer risk. However, epidemiological results are not always consistent. In this meta-analysis, we assessed reported studies of associations between polymorphisms of CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI and DraI, and the risk of lung cancer. We found decreased lung cancer risk among subjects carrying CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI c1/c2 and c1/c2 + c2/c2 genotype [odds ratio (OR) = 0.80, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.72–0.89 and OR = 0.82, 95% CI: 0.72–0.93, respectively], using 4436 cases and 6385 controls from 26 studies. We also observed a decreased lung cancer risk among subjects carrying c1/c2 and c1/c2 + c2/c2 genotypes in the Asian population and on the basis of population control in stratified analysis. We found a protective effect of the CYP2E1 DraI CC and CD + CC polymorphisms for lung cancer (OR = 0.58, 95% CI: 0.41–0.81 and OR = 0.84, 95% CI: 0.73–0.96, respectively). The meta-analysis suggests that CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI and DraI polymorphisms may affect the susceptibility of lung cancer, and a study with a larger sample size is needed to further evaluate gene–environment interaction on CYP2E1 polymorphisms and lung cancer risk.     

CYP1A1和GSTM1基因多态性与内蒙古人群肺癌易感性的关系

背景与目的 肺癌是严重危害人类健康的恶性肿瘤之一，其发病与肺癌人群中某些肺癌相关基因的遗传多态性有关。本研究旨在探讨细胞色素P4501A1（CYP1A1）基因多态性和谷胱甘肽硫转移酶M1（GSTM1）基因多态性与内蒙古人群肺癌易感性的关系。方法 用PCR-RFLP技术分析了原发性肺癌组和住院对照组（各163例）的CYP1A1、GSTM1基因的多态性、基因型分布频率和交互作用。结果 CYP1A1突变型和GSTM1基因缺陷型EGSTM1（-）]频率分布分别为36．8％、65．0％（病例组）和19．0％、48．9％（对照组），二者经χ^2检验差异有显著性（χ^2=12．82，P=0．000；χ^2=9．78，P=0．002）。CYP1A1突变型患肺癌的风险显著增加（OR=2．48，95％CI为1．51～4．08）。GSTM1（-）者患肺癌的风险也显著增加（OR=2．03，95％CI为1．30～3．17）。基因突变的协同分析发现CYP1A1突变型／GSTM1（-）在肺癌组和对照组中的分布频率分别为28．8％和8．0％，二者经χ^2检验有显著性差异（χ^2=23．883，P=0．000）。CYP1A1突变型／GSTM1（-）患肺癌的风险显著增加（OR=4．90，95％CI为2．50～9．83）。无论是在肺癌组还是在对照组，CYP1A1突变型／GSTM1（-）和CYP1A1非突变型／GSTM1（-）在性别间分布频率的差异均无显著性（肺癌组χ^2=0．797，P=0．372；对照组χ^2=0．670，P=0．761）。吸烟与肺癌易感性的统计学分析，结果显示吸烟与肺癌易感性有关（χ^2=14．197，P=0．000），吸烟者患肺癌的风险显著增加（OR=2．33，95％CI为1.50～3．62）。CYP1A1突变型与吸烟关系的协同分析发现，携带CYP1A1突变型基因的吸烟者较携带CYP1A1突变型基因不吸烟者易患肺癌（OR=4．44，95％CI为2．40～8．32，χ^2=23．843，P=0．000）。GSTM1（-）与吸烟关系的协同分析中也发现，携带GSTM1（-）的吸烟者患肺癌的风险显著增加（OR=7．32，95％CI为3．39～15．50，χ^2=36．708，P=0．000）。结论 CYP1A1突变型和GSTM1（-）是内蒙古地区肺癌的易患因素，二者对肺癌的发生有协同作用，吸烟与肺癌的易感性也有关，CYP1A1突变型、GSTM1（-）与吸烟在肺癌的发生上也有相互促进作用。     

GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 polymorphisms and lung cancer risk

Previous studies have suggested that GST genotypes may play a role in determining susceptibility to lung cancer, though the data are often conflicting. In this study we investigated GSTM1, GSTT1 and GSTP1 status in relation to lung cancer risk in patients attending a Manchester bronchoscopy clinic. Cases were all patients (n=94) currently with, or with a history of, tumours of the lung, trachea or bronchus. The control group were all other patients (n=165) who were free of benign and malignant tumours both at the time of, or prior to, diagnosis. All patients were interviewed for information on lifestyle risk factors, and DNA extracted from bronchial lavage and blood samples was used for genotyping. GSTM1 null genotype was associated with decreased lung cancer risk (odds ratio (OR) 0.50, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.29–0.87), particularly among men (OR 0.43, 95% CI 0.21–0.87) and those above the median age (OR 0.33, 95% CI 0.15–0.70). No difference in GSTT1 and GSTP1 genotype distribution was seen between cases and controls. The GSTM1 null genotype was associated with a decreased risk of squamous cell carcinoma: the OR, adjusted for age, sex and pack years was 0.32 (95% CI 0.12–0.82). As previous studies have reported that the GSTM1 null genotype is associated with an increased lung cancer risk, further work is required to determine whether the observed association is true, or whether it arises from bias or confounding factors.     

CYP1A1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 polymorphisms and breast cancer risk in Brazilian women

The frequency of CYP1A1 (CYP1A1*2A), GSTM1, and GSTT1 polymorphisms, as well as the main risk factors associated with breast cancer were studied in Brazilian women, with malignant breast cancer (n=128), or age-matched controls (n=256). Only a family history of breast cancer presented a significant risk (OR=3.00, CI=1.27-7.06). Among non-whites, the CYP1A1*2A allele was underrepresented among patients. Statistical analysis indicated that this polymorphism may decrease the risk of breast cancer among these individuals, particularly after adjusting for the risk presented by selected risk factors (OR=0.30, 95% CI=0.12-0.76).     

CYP2D6、GSTM1遗传多态性与肺癌易感性关系

目的探讨中国汉族广东籍人群中ＣＹＰ２Ｄ６、ＧＳＴＭ１的遗传多态性与肺癌易感性关系。方法采用病例—对照研究方法,用ＰＣＲ检测ＣＹＰ２Ｄ６、ＧＳＴＭ１的基因型,限制性酶切电泳鉴定ＣＹＰ２Ｄ６点突变。结果病例组与对照组间未发现ＣＹＰ２Ｄ６多态性分布差异,而ＧＳＴＭ１多态性存在分布差异,病例组为５８．７％,对照组为３５．７％（Ｐ＜０．０５）,ＯＲ值为２．５６（１．１１－２．４４）。结论ＣＹＰ２Ｄ６Ｇ－Ａ突变与肺癌易感性未见有联系,ＧＳＴＭ１－／－型个体患肺癌易感性增高     

Association of GSTM1, CYP1A1 and CYP2E1 genetic polymorphisms with susceptibility to lung adenocarcinoma: a case-control study in Chinese population

A case-control study of 164 lung adenocarcinoma (AC) patients with 181 age- and gender-matched healthy controls was conducted in order to assess any associations between glutathione- S -transferase M1 (GSTM1), cytochrome P4501A1 (CYP1A1) and cyto-chrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1) polymorphisms and susceptibility to lung AC in Chinese. The presence of CYP2E1 variant allele was significantly less frequent in cases than in controls, while the distribution of GSTM1 null genotype and variant CYP1A1 Msp 1 allele did not vary between cases and controls. After adjustment for age, gender, smoking and all other genotypes, the CYP2E1 Rsa1 variant allele was significantly associated with decreased risk of lung AC [odds ratio 0.534 (95% confidence interval, 0.340–0.837)]. Furthermore, 3.0-fold increased risk was found in individuals with combined GSTM1 null genotype and CYP2E1 Rsa 1 wild type versus those with combined GSTM1 non-null type and CYP2E1 variant allele. Our results suggest that CYP2E1 Rsa 1 variant allele is associated with a decreased risk of lung AC, and combined GSTM1 null genotype and CYP2E1 Rsa1 wild type has a promoting effect on susceptibility to lung AC.

GSTM1 null polymorphisms and oral cancer risk: a meta-analysis

Many studies have examined the association between the GSTM1 null gene polymorphism and oral cancer risk in various populations, but their results have been inconsistent. To assess this relationship more precisely, a meta-analysis was performed. The PubMed and Embase databases were searched for case–control studies published up to May 2013. Data were extracted and pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Ultimately, 39 studies, comprising of 4,704 oral cancer cases and 7,090 controls, were included. Overall, for null versus present, the pooled OR was 1.29 (95 % CI?=?1.20–1.40), and the heterogeneity was found in all studies. In the stratified analysis by ethnicity, significant risks were found among Asians (OR?=?1.39, 95 % CI?=?1.27–1.53; P?=?0.000 for heterogeneity), but not in Caucasians (OR?=?0.99, 95 % CI?=?0.83–1.18; P?=?0.677 for heterogeneity). In conclusion, this meta-analysis demonstrates that the GSTM1 null gene polymorphism may be an increased risk of oral cancer in Asians but not in Caucasians.     

CYP1A1 and CYP1B1 polymorphisms and risk of lung cancer among never smokers: a population-based study

The cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily of enzymes catalyse one of the first steps in the metabolism of carcinogens such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, nitroaromatics and arylamines. Polymorphisms within the CYP1A1 gene have been shown to be associated with lung cancer risk, predominantly among Asian populations. Despite functional evidence of a possible role of CYP1B1 in lung cancer susceptibility, only a few studies have evaluated polymorphisms in this gene in relation to lung cancer susceptibility. This population-based study evaluates polymorphisms in both of these CYP genes within never smokers, most of whom had environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) exposure. Cases (n = 160) were identified through the metropolitan Detroit Surveillance, Epidemiology and End Results program, and age, sex and race-matched population-based controls (n = 181) were identified using random digit dialing. Neither CYP1A1 MspI nor CYP1A1 Ile(462)Val was associated with lung cancer susceptibility among Caucasians or African-Americans. Among Caucasians, however, CYP1B1 Leu(432)Val was significantly associated with lung cancer susceptibility odds ratio (OR) for at least one valine allele = 2.87 [95% confidence interval (CI) 1.63-5.07]. Combinations of this Phase I enzyme polymorphism along with selected Phase II enzyme polymorphisms (GSTM1 null, GSTP1 Ile(105)Val and NQO1 C(609)T) were evaluated. The combination of CYP1B1 Leu(432)Val and NQO1 C(609)T appeared to be associated with the highest risk of lung cancer (OR = 4.14, 95% CI 1.60-10.74), although no combinations differed significantly from the risk associated with CYP1B1 Leu(432)Val alone. When individuals were stratified by household ETS exposure (yes/no), CYP1B1 Leu(432)Val alone and in combination with Phase II enzyme polymorphisms was more strongly associated with increased lung cancer susceptibility among those with at least some household ETS exposure. Additional studies will be required to further validate these findings among never smokers and to evaluate the effects of this polymorphism among smoking populations as well.     

Susceptibility to oral cancer by genetic polymorphisms at CYP1A1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 loci among Indians: tobacco exposure as a risk modulator

Oral cancer is the leading cancer type among Southeast Asianmen and is causally associated with the use of tobacco. Geneticpolymorphisms in xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes modify theeffect of environmental exposures, thereby playing a significantrole in gene–environment interactions and hence contributeto the high degree of variance in individual susceptibilityto cancer risk. This study investigates the role of polymorphismsat CYP1A1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC)in a case–control study involving 155 patients with precancerouslesions, 458 cancer patients and 729 age and habit-matched controls.Genotypes at these loci were determined by polymerase chainreaction (PCR) and PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphismperformed on genomic DNA extracted from peripheral blood lymphocytes.Risk to oral cancer was estimated among different tobacco exposuregroups and doses using logistic regression analysis. GSTM1 nullgenotype conferred 1.29-fold increased risk [95% confidenceinterval (CI), 1.04–1.65] to OSCC. GSTT1 null genotype,however, conferred 0.57 times reduced risk to OSCC (95% CI,0.39–0.83), specifically among tobacco chewers (odds ratio0.27; 95% CI, 0.14–0.53). This risk was further reducedto 0.13 times (95% CI, 0.04–0.46) with increase in lifetimeexposure to tobacco. We also investigated risk conferred bythese genotypes at two different intra-oral sites, buccal mucosaand tongue. We found increased susceptibility to buccal mucosacancer among individuals carrying these genetic markers. Theseresults support the finding that GSTM1 null genotype is a riskfactor to OSCC among Indian tobacco habits; GSTT1 null genotype,however, emerged as a protective factor.

GSTM1 and CYP1A1 polymorphisms, tobacco, air pollution, and lung cancer: a study in rural Thailand.

OBJECTIVES: The Lampang Province is situated in the northern region of Thailand. Incidence rates of lung cancer are high for Asian standards, particularly in women. This study was conducted to quantify the risk of lung cancer associated with exposures prevalent in the area and to investigate possible interactions with genetic susceptibility. The presence of several large open-cast coal mines from 1955 close to electricity-generating plants was a particular focus of concern. METHODS: Two-hundred and eleven cases of primary lung cancers diagnosed in 1993 to 1995 and residents in the province were recruited at the Lampang Provincial Hospital (main referral center for treatment of the disease). Two sets of controls, frequency-matched to the cases by sex and age, were recruited (a) from the resident population (202 interviewed) and (b) from patients admitted to the hospital for diseases predominantly unrelated to tobacco smoking (211 interviewed). Sociodemographic information, complete residential history, and characteristics of the household (place of cooking, cooking fuel, and heating fuels), occupational history, and history of tobacco smoking were obtained by interview. Cases and controls ( approximately 50% of the population-based series) provided a blood sample. A point source air pollution exposure index was calculated for each village/township reported in residential histories based on the linear distance from the Mae Moh Center (the area of the electricity-generating plants), the year-specific gaseous (SO(2) and NO(2)) or total suspended particulate emissions from the Mae Moh Power Plant, and the percentage of wind from the center. Odds ratios (OR) for the disease associated with categorical variables were estimated within unconditional logistic regression. Extraction of genomic DNA and genotyping of variants in CYP1A1 and GSTM1 were conducted to assess the extent of modification of risk by these genes that are involved in the metabolism of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, a common component of the exposures. RESULTS: Overall, there was no evidence of relevant differences in the socioeconomic level of the three groups. The two control sets were similar with respect to lifelong tobacco habit and were subsequently pooled in analyses. Never-smokers were 7% of men and 33% of women. Smoking of local traditional products unfiltered and high in tar content is a common habit in the rural female population. ORs associated with smoking increased with duration of the habit and average daily amount, being 4.9 [95% confidence interval (95% CI), 2.5-9.7] for smokers of > or =7 cigarettes/d and 3.3 (95% CI, 1.7-6.2) for duration of 41 years or longer compared with nonsmokers. Smoking of local products was associated with an independent OR of 3.1 (95% CI, 1.7-5.6) adjusted for lifelong cumulative amount of tobacco smoked. Although most smokers had the habit for at least 16 years, the daily consumption was low compared with Western standards. Other potential sources of exposure to lung carcinogens (emission from the power-generating plants and domestic burning of coal and wood for cooking and heating) were not associated with increased risk of lung cancer. None of the three polymorphisms examined increased the risk of lung cancer or modified the risk associated with tobacco smoking. CONCLUSION: In this rural population, 96% of male and 64% of female lung cancer incidence were explained by tobacco smoking. None of the potential sources of air pollution deriving from the combustion of coal and wood, or polymorphisms in the CYP1A1 gene or deletion of the GSTM1 had an effect on the risk of lung cancer, either together or separately.     

CYP1A1, CYP2E1 and GSTM1 genetic polymorphisms. The effect of single and combined genotypes on lung cancer susceptibility in Chilean people.

CYP1A1, CYP2E1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms were evaluated in Chilean healthy controls and lung cancer patients. In the Chilean healthy group, frequencies of CYP1A1 variant alleles for MspI (m2 or CYP1A1*2A) and ile/val (val or CYP1A1*2B) polymorphisms were 0.25 and 0.33, respectively. Frequencies of variant alleles C (CYP2E1*6) and c2 (CYP2E1*5B) for CYP2E1 were 0.21 and 0.16, respectively and frequency for GSTM1(-) was 0.24. The presence of variant alleles for GSTM1, MspI and Ile/val polymorphisms was more frequent in cases than in controls. However, frequencies for the c2 and C alleles were not significantly different in controls and in cases. The estimated relative risk for lung cancer associated to a single mutated allele in CYP1A1, CYP2E1 or GSTM1 was 2.41 for m2, 1.69 for val, 1.16 for C, 0.71 for c2 and 2.46 for GSTM1(-). The estimated relative risk was higher for individuals carrying combined CYP1A1 and GSTM1 mutated alleles (m2/val, OR=6.28; m2/GSTM1(-), OR=3.56) and lower in individuals carrying CYP1A1 and CYP2E1 mutated alleles (m2/C, OR=1.39; m2/c2, OR=2.00; val/C, OR=1.45; val/c2, OR=0.48; not significant). The OR values considering smoking were 4.37 for m2, 4.05 for val, 3.47 for GSTM1(-), 7.38 for m2/val and 3.68 for m2/GSTM1(-), higher values than those observed without any stratification by smoking. Taken together, these findings suggest that Chilean people carrying single or combined GSTM1 and CYP1A1 polymorphisms could be more susceptible to lung cancer induced by environmental pollutants such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

Role of CYP1A2 polymorphisms on lung cancer risk in a prospective study

Cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2) is a key enzyme for lung carcinogen activation and lung inflammation. We studied the interactions of the CYP1A2 functional variants -3860G/A(rs2069514),-2467T/delT(rs3569413),-163C/A(rs762551)] with occupational/environmental carcinogenic exposures in the development of lung cancer in a case-control study nested in the Danish prospective cohort "Diet, Cancer and Health." At enrollment (1993-1997), blood samples for genotype analyses and information on lifestyle were collected 5 (mean value) years before the onset of the disease. The study population included 425 lung cancer cases and 786 subcohort members, who were gender- and age-matched. We found that -163A carriers were at increased risk of lung cancer (P=0.035) in a multivariate COX regression model, which was adjusted for personal habits (i.e., cumulative smoking, passive smoke at home, alcohol intake, and fruit intake) and occupational exposure. Additionally, the interaction between -2467delT and smoking increases lung cancer risk in males, especially light smokers (<21.5 pack-years, P=0.004). The increased lung cancer risk found in -163C carriers, independent of smoking status, and in -2467delT male smokers, suggests that these variants could influence lung cancer development through different mechanisms (i.e. lung carcinogen activation and lung inflammation).
