X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 polymorphisms and hepatocellular carcinoma: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: To perform a systematic meta-analysis to investigate the association between X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) polymorphisms and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk.Relevant studies extracted from PubMed, Embase, Wanfang, VIP and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases up to March 2012 were included in the study. Stata software, version 11.0, was used for the statistical analysis. The odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) of the XRCC1 polymorphisms in HCC patients were analyzed and compared with healthy controls. The meta-analysis was performed using fixed-effect or random-effect methods, depending on the absence or presence of significant heterogeneity.Eleven studies with 2075 HCC cases and 2604 controls met our eligibility criteria (four studies, 888 cases and 938 controls for Arg194Trp, four studies, 858 cases and 880 controls for Arg280His, and nine studies, 1845 cases and 2401 controls for Arg399Gln). The meta-analysis revealed no associations between the Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorphisms of the XRCC1 gene and HCC risk under all contrast models (codominant, dominant and recessive models) in the overall analysis and sensitivity analysis (the studies with controls not in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were excluded). For XRCC1 Arg280His polymorphism, the overall analysis revealed the significant association between the His/His genotype and the increased risk of HCC (His/His vs Arg/Arg model, OR: 1.96, 95% CI: 1.03-3.75, P = 0.04). However, sensitivity analysis showed an altered pattern of result and non-significant association (OR: 2.06, 95% CI: 0.67-6.25, P = 0.20). The heterogeneity hypothesis test did not reveal any heterogeneity, and Begg's and Egger's tests did not find any obvious publication bias.The XRCC1 Arg194Trp and Arg399Gln polymorphisms are not associated with HCC risk. More rigorous association studies are needed to verify the involvement of XRCC1 Arg280His polymorphism in HCC susceptibility.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies on the association of X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg194Trp, Arg399Gln, and Arg280His polymorphisms with head and neck cancer (HNC) have produced inconsistent results. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of these three polymorphic variants on HNC risk.MethodsThe PubMed and EMBASE databases were searched for genetic association studies on the XRCC1 Arg194Trp, Arg399Gln, and Arg280His polymorphisms and HNC risk. (The most recent search was conducted on 20 August, 2013.) Twenty-six studies were identified and meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the association between the polymorphism and HNC by calculating combined odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals.ResultsNo significant association was found under the allelic, homozygous, heterozygote, and dominant genetic models in the overall comparison. Further, no significant association between the XRCC1 Arg399Gln and Arg280His polymorphisms and HNC risk was detected under the four genetic models in subgroup analyses based on ethnicity, cancer site, and whether or not the studies had been adjusted for cigarette smoking and alcohol. However, in stratified analyses based on cancer site, a significant association was found between the XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism and oral cancer under the allelic, heterozygote, and dominant models. The XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism was significantly associated with HNC risk in studies that were adjusted for smoking and alcohol under the homozygous and heterozygote models.ConclusionThe meta-analysis results suggest that the XRCC1 Arg399Gln and Arg280His polymorphisms are probably not associated with the risk of HNC, but the XRCC1 Arg194Trp polymorphism was associated with increased risk of HNC in the subgroup analysis of studies adjusted for smoking and alcohol and with increased risk of oral cancer in the stratified analyses based on cancer site. Further studies with larger samples are needed to confirm these findings.

Project description:OBJECTIVES:Glioma is the most common central nervous system tumor. This systematic review and meta-analysis is aimed to systematically assess the association of XRCC1 polymorphisms with the risk of glioma. METHODS:Such databases as EMbase, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) platforms, VIP and WanFang were searched up to April 2015 to collect case-control studies of association between XRCC1 polymorphisms and glioma. Data were extracted and meta-analysis was conducted by using Stata 12.0 softwares. RESULTS:A total of 22 studies were included in the meta-analysis, including 18503 glioma patients and 24367 controls. The overall data indicated that XRCC1 Arg194Trp (C>T) polymorphism significantly increased glioma risk (allele C versus T: OR=0.72, 95% CI=0.55-0.93, CC versus TT: OR=0.55, 95% CI=0.46-0.67; CC versus CT+TT: OR=0.64, 95% CI=0.45-0.91 and CC+CT vs. TT: OR=0.61, 95% CI=0.51-0.74), especially in Asia ethnicity. XRCC1 Arg280His (G>A) polymorphism has no association with glioma (allele G versus A: OR=1.01, 95% CI=0.83-1.22; GG versus AA: OR=1.07, 95% CI=0.66-1.75; GA versus AA: OR=1.01, 95% CI=0.77-1.32; GG versus GA+AA: OR=1.01, 95% CI=0.84-1.22 and GG+GT versus AA: OR=1.06, 95% CI=0.67-1.69). XRCC1 Arg399Gln (G>A) polymorphism will significantly increase glioma risk in Asian (allele G versus A: OR=0.78, 95% CI= 0.72-0.84; GG versus AA: OR=0.56, 95% CI=0.47-0.66; GA versus AA OR=0.71, 95% CI=0.59-0.84; GG versus GA+AA: OR=0.76, 95% CI=0.68-0.84 and GG+GA vs. AA: OR=0.62, 95% CI=0.53-0.73) but not Caucasian ethnicity. XRCC1 Pro161Leu (C>T), Leu387Leu (G>A), Pro602Thr (C>A), Ser593Arg (C>G) and Glu491Lys (G>A) polymorphisms increased glioma risk in different degrees. CONCLUSION:This meta-analysis suggested that XRCC1 Arg194Trp and XRCC1 Arg399Gln (G>A) polymorphisms led to susceptibility to glioma in Asian but not Caucasian population. XRCC1 Glu491Lys (G>A), Pro161Leu (C>T), Leu387Leu (G>A), Pro602Thr (C>A), Thr304Ala (A>G) and Ser593Arg (C>G) polymorphisms will increase glioma risk. However, XRCC1 Arg280His (G>A) is irrelevant to the increased or decreased glioma risk.
