Genetic polymorphisms of NAMPT related with susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Nicotinamide phosphoribosyl transferase (Nampt) plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis. The present study examines whether genetic polymorphisms of NAMPT are related to the risk of developing esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).A total of 810 subjects were enrolled in this study, including 405 ESCC patients and 405 healthy controls. Using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP), genotypes at rs61330082, rs2505568 and rs9034 of NAMPT were identified. Haplotypes were constructed using PHASE software. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to evaluate the potentiating effects of the genotypes, alleles and haplotypes on the development of ESCC.The presence of genotypes CT and TT and allele T at rs61330082 was less frequent in ESCC cases than in controls (48.89% vs. 53.33%, P < 0.01, 95% CI: 0.33-0.68; 18.52% vs. 30.37%, P < 0.01, 95% CI: 0.22-0.50; 42.96% vs. 57.04%, P < 0.01, 95% CI: 0.38-0.61; respectively). No statistically significant differences existed in the distributions of genotypes or alleles at rs2505568 or rs9034 between ESCC cases and controls. Of five haplotypes constructed, haplotypes CTC, CTT and CAC were higher in ESCC cases (P < 0.01, OR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.16-2.12; P = 0.04, OR = 1.72, 95% CI: 1.03-2.85; P < 0.01, OR = 3.39, 95% CI: 1.99-5.75; respectively) than in controls.Genetic polymorphisms of NAMPT, specifically genotype CC and allele C at rs61330082 as well as haplotypes CTC, CTT and CAC, were significantly correlated with ESCC susceptibility.

Project description:BackgroundThe human 5p15.33 locus contains two well-known genes, the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and cleft lip and palate transmembrane 1-like (CLPTM1L) genes, which have been implicated in carcinogenesis. A common sequence variant, rs401681, located in an intronic region of CLPTM1L, has been reported to be associated with lung cancer risk based on genome-wide association study. However, subsequent replication studies in diverse populations have yielded inconsistent results. In addition, genetic variants at 5p15.33, including rs401681, have been shown to be involved in the susceptibility to multiple malignancies. Nevertheless, the role of these TERT-CLPTM1L variants in the etiology of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) remains unknown.MethodsWe genotyped the rs401681 polymorphism using TaqMan methodology and analyzed its association with the risk of lung cancer and ESCC in a case-control study of 1,479 cancer patients (726 with lung cancer and 753 with ESCC) and 860 healthy individuals.ResultsLogistic regression analyses revealed that rs401681 T genotypes were associated with a significantly decreased risk of lung cancer (CT vs. CC: adjusted OR=0.782, 95% CI=0.625-0.978, P=0.031; CT/TT vs. CC: adjusted OR=0.786; 95% CI=0.635-0.972, P=0.026). Stratification analysis by histology type indicated that rs401681 T genotypes were associated with a significantly reduced risk of both adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Furthermore, no significant association was observed between rs401681 and the risk of ESCC (CT vs. CC: adjusted OR=0.910, 95% CI=0.734-1.129, P=0.392; TT vs. CC: adjusted OR=0.897, 95%CI=0.624-1.290, P=0.558; CT/TT vs. CC: adjusted OR=0.908, 95% CI=0.740-1.114, P=0.355).ConclusionsOur findings provide further evidence supporting rs401681 as a genetic variant associated with the risk of lung cancer. In addition, we investigated the correlation between the rs401681 variant and the risk of ESCC in a Han Chinese population, and our results suggest that this genetic variant may not be involved in ESCC risk.
