Association of XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism with head and neck cancer susceptibility: evidence from 11,443 subjects.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND: Whether the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) Lys751Gln of xeroderma pigmentosum group D(XPD) gene increases susceptibility to head and neck cancer (HNC) is controversial and undetermined. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to systematically assess the possible association between them. METHODS: The OVID, Medline, Embase, Pubmed, Web of Science databases were searched to identify the eligible studies. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (95% CI) were used to assess the strength of association. RESULTS: A total of 11,443 subjects from eighteen studies were subjected to meta-analysis. Overall, XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism had no association with increased HNC risk under all five genetic models (P > 0.05). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity and source of controls, still no significant association was found under five genetic models (P > 0.05). In the subgroup analysis by cancer type, XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism had statistically significant association with elevated laryngeal cancer (LC) and nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) risk under heterozygous comparison and dominant model (P<0.05) and borderline significantly increased risk was found under allele contrast for LC and NPC. Carriers of Lys allele and Lys/Lys genotype may be associated with elevated LC and NPC risk. CONCLUSIONS: There is overall lack of association between XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism and HNC risk under all five genetic models and still no significant association was found in the subgroup analysis by ethnicity and source of controls. However, XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism was significantly associated with susceptibility to LC and NPC and the Lys allele and Lys/Lys genotype of XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism may be a risk factor for LC and NPC. However, relatively modest sample sizes were included in this meta-analysis and studies with large sample sizes and representative population are warranted to further clarify this finding.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Tumor suppressor gene (TP53) is considered as the most frequently mutated gene in almost all forms of human cancer. Moreover, genetic variations in the XPD gene affect the DNA repair capacity increasing cancer susceptibility. Polymorphisms within these genes can play a major role in determining individual lung cancer susceptibility. However, several studies have investigated this possibility; but reported conflicting results. Therefore, the objective of this study was to investigate the role of TP53 Arg72Pro and XPD Lys751Gln gene polymorphisms on lung cancer susceptibility in the Bangladeshi population. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Study subjects comprised of 180 lung cancer patients and 200 healthy volunteers. Genetic polymorphism of TP53 was determined by multiplex PCR-based method, while XPD genotypes were analyzed using Polymerase Chain Reaction-based Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method. Lung cancer risk was estimated as odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS:From the results, no significant association between TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism and lung cancer risk was observed. Whereas, patients with homozygous mutant variants (Gln/Gln) of XPD at codon 751 were found significantly associated with lung cancer risk when compared to the control (OR=3.58; 95% CI=1.58-8.09; p=0.002). Lung cancer risk was found significantly higher with Gln/Gln variants of XPD among smokers (OR=4.03; 95% CI=1.11-14.63; p=0.026). Significant increased risk of lung cancer was found with Arg/Pro genotypes of TP53, Lys/Gln and Gln/Gln variants of XPD in individuals with family history of cancer (OR=3.44; 95% CI=1.36-8.72; p=0.011; OR=3.17; 95% CI=1.20-8.39; p=0.024; OR=16.35; 95% CI=0.92-289.5; p=0.007, respectively). CONCLUSION:The findings indicated that homozygous mutant variants (Gln/Gln) of XPD were associated with increased lung cancer risk, whereas TP53 Arg72Pro polymorphism was not associated with risk of lung cancer among Bangladeshi patients..

Project description:Genetic polymorphisms of xeroderma pigmentosum group D (XPD) in the nucleotide excision repair pathway may influence cancer susceptibility by affecting the capacity for DNA repair. Studies investigating the association between XPD Lys751Gln and Asp312Asn polymorphisms and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk reported inconsistent results. The aim of this study was to quantitatively summarize the evidence for such an association. Eligible studies were identified by searching electronic databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, and CBM, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, for the period up to October 2014. The association of XPD Lys751Gln and Asp312Asn polymorphisms and HCC risk was assessed by odds ratios (ORs) together with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Finally, a total of 11 studies with 4322 cases and 4970 controls were included for XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism and 6 studies with 2223 cases and 2441 controls were available for XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism. With respect to XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism, statistically significant increased HCC risk was found when all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (Gln/Gln vs Lys/Lys: OR = 1.363, 95% CI 1.065-1.744, P = 0.014; Lys/Gln vs Lys/Lys: OR = 1.205, 95% CI 1.099-1.321, P = 0.000; Gln/Gln+Lys/Gln vs Lys/Lys: OR = 1.300, 95% CI 1.141-1.480, P = 0.000). In subgroup analyses by ethnicity, source of control, Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) in controls, hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, and statistically significant increase of HCC risk was found in East Asians, population-based studies, studies consistent with HWE, and HBV-positive subjects, but not in mixed/other populations, hospital-based studies, studies deviating from HWE, and HBV-negative subjects. With respect to XPD Asp312Asn polymorphism, no significant association with HCC risk was found in the overall and subgroup analyses. The results suggest that the XPD Lys751Gln polymorphism contributes to increased HCC susceptibility, especially in East Asian populations. Further, large and well-designed studies are required to validate this association.
