Association between the XRCC1 polymorphisms and glioma risk: a meta-analysis of case-control studies.

ABSTRACT:

Background

X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) is one of the DNA repair genes encoding a scaffolding protein that participate in base excision repair (BER) pathway. However, studies on the association between polymorphisms in this gene and glioma have yielded conflicting results. This meta-analysis was performed to derive a more precise estimation between XRCC1 polymorphisms (Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, and Arg280His) and glioma risk.

Methods

Data were collected from several electronic databases, with the last search up to November 28, 2012. Meta-analysis was performed by critically reviewing 9 studies for Arg399Gln polymorphism (3146 cases and 4296 controls), 4 studies for Arg194Trp polymorphism (2557 cases and 4347 controls), and 4 studies for Arg280His polymorphism (1936 cases and 2895 controls). All of the statistical analyses were performed using the software programs STATA (version 11.0).

Results

The combined results showed that Arg399Gln polymorphism was significantly associated with glioma risk (Gln/Gln versus Arg/Arg: OR?=?1.52, 95% CI?=?1.03-2.23; recessive model: OR?=?1.32, 95% CI?=?1.01-1.73; additive model: OR?=?1.21, 95% CI?=?1.00-1.47), whereas Arg194Trp/Arg280His polymorphisms were all not significantly associated with glioma risk. As for ethnicity, Arg399Gln polymorphism was associated with increased risk of glioma among Asians (Gln/Gln versus Arg/Arg: OR?=?1.78, 95% CI?=?1.29-2.47; Arg/Gln versus Arg/Arg: OR?=?1.28, 95% CI?=?1.05-1.56; recessive model: OR?=?1.59, 95% CI?=?1.16-2.17; dominant model: OR?=?1.36, 95% CI?=?1.13-1.65; additive model: OR?=?1.32, 95% CI?=?1.15-1.52), but not among Caucasians. Stratified analyses by histological subtype indicated that the Gln allele of Arg399Gln polymorphism showed borderline association with the risk of glioblastoma among Caucasians. However, no evidence was observed in subgroup analyses for Arg194Trp/Arg280His polymorphisms.

Conclusions

Our meta-analysis suggested that Arg399Gln polymorphism was associated with increased risk of glioma among Asians and borderline increased risk for glioblastoma among Caucasians, whereas Arg194Trp/Arg280His polymorphisms might have no influence on the susceptibility of glioma in different ethnicities.

Project description:BackgroundPrevious studies investigating the association between X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) polymorphisms and thyroid cancer risk have yielded inconsistent results. This meta-analysis was performed to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between three XRCC1 polymorphisms and thyroid cancer risk.Methods/principal findingsPubMed and EMBASE database were systematically searched to identify relevant studies. 10 publications were selected for this meta-analysis, including 11 studies for Arg399Gln polymorphism (1726 cases and 3774 controls), 7 studies for Arg194Trp polymorphism (1037 cases and 2487 controls) and 8 studies for Arg280His polymorphism (1432 cases and 3356 controls). The results in total population did not show any significant association between these three polymorphisms and the risk of DTC for all genetic models. However, when stratified by ethnicity, the results showed that Arg280His polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of DTC among Caucasians (Arg/His vs. Arg/Arg: OR = 1.45, 95% CI = 1.09-1.93; dominant model: OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.08-1.89; additive model: OR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.05-1.80), whereas individuals carrying Arg/His genotype have a significantly reduced risk of DTC among Asians (Arg/His vs. Arg/Arg: OR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.51-0.98). We also detected that 399Gln variant allele carriers might presented an overall decreased risk of DTC in mixed population. Furthermore, subgroup analyses by histological subtype revealed that Arg194Trp polymorphism was significantly associated with reduced risk for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) (dominant model: OR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.50-0.99).ConclusionsThis meta-analysis suggests that Arg280His polymorphism might contribute to the susceptibility of DTC among Caucasians, whereas it might provide protective effects in Asians against the risk of DTC. Additionally, our results support the protective role of Arg194Trp polymorphism in developing PTC, and show evidence of an association between Arg399Gln polymorphism and decreased risk of DTC in mixed population.

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.
