Association between promoter polymorphisms of OPN gene and cancer risk: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Results of the association between polymorphisms of osteopontin (OPN) gene promoter region and risk of cancer were inconclusive. The aim of this meta-analysis was to elucidate whether OPN promoter polymorphisms were associated with cancer risk. METHODS:Electronic databases including PubMed, Web of Science, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure were systematically searched. Odd ratios (ORs) and their 95% confidential interval (CI) were used to assess the strength of association between OPN promoter polymorphisms and cancer risks. RESULTS:Nine studies were finally included in this meta-analysis. For OPN rs17524488 polymorphism, carriers of GG or -/G genotype were significantly associated with increased cancer risk compared with wild-type -/- carriers, respectively (GG vs -/-: OR =1.40, 95% CI =1.03-1.91, P=0.033; -/G vs -/-: OR =1.22, 95% CI =1.07-1.40, P=0.002). Additionally, G allele was significantly associated with increased cancer risk compared with (-) allele (OR =1.21, 95% CI =1.04-1.40, P=0.016). However, no significant association was observed of OPN rs11730582 polymorphism and cancer risk (CC vs TT: OR =0.98, 95% CI =0.49-1.97, P=0.964; CT vs TT: OR =0.88, 95% CI =0.54-1.43, P=0.610). CONCLUSION:Carriers of GG or -/G genotype of OPN promoter rs17524488 (-156-/G) polymorphism might be associated with increased risk of cancer compared with wild-type -/- carriers, respectively. However, no significant association was observed between OPN promoter rs11730582 (-443C/T) polymorphism and risk of cancer.

Project description:Numerous studies have focused on the association between heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) gene promoter polymorphisms and susceptibility to cancer; however, results remain ambiguous. The present systematic Human Genome Epidemiology review and meta-analysis aimed to clarify this association. A systematic search was used to assess the association of HO-1 gene polymorphisms with cancer susceptibility in the PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Wanfang Data and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases, with all reviewed studies published before April 10, 2017. Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 12.0 software were used to perform the meta-analysis. A total of 14 studies were included in the analysis. Overall, no significant associations of the HO-1 (GT)n and T(-413)A polymorphisms with cancer susceptibility were identified. However, subgroup analyses by ethnicity and cancer type indicated that the LL and L-allele (LL+LS) genotypes of HO-1 (GT)n were associated with increased susceptibility to cancer compared with the SS+SL and SS genotypes in the following subgroups: East Asian [LL+LS vs. SS: odds ratio (OR)=1.51, 95% confidence interval (CI)=1.11-2.05, P=0.0003; LL vs. SS+SL: OR=1.44, 95% CI=1.04-2.01, P=0.03; LL vs. SS: OR=1.64, 95% CI=1.07-2.52, P=0.02]; squamous cell carcinoma (LL+LS vs. SS: OR=1.78, 95% CI=1.35-2.34, P<0.05; LL vs. SS+SL: OR=1.71, 95% CI=1.34-2.18, P<0.05; LL vs. SS: OR=2.26, 95% CI =1.62-3.14, P<0.05); and digestive tract cancer + East Asian (LL+LS vs. SS: OR=1.56, 95% CI=1.22-1.98, P<0.05; LL vs. SS: OR=1.80, 95% CI=1.06-3.05, P<0.05). These findings indicated that there was no association of the HO-1 (GT)n and T(-413)A polymorphisms with cancer susceptibility, while the L-allele genotypes (LL and LS) of HO-1 (GT)n may be susceptibility factors for cancer in East Asian, digestive tract cancer in East Asian and squamous cell carcinoma populations. Due to limitations of the reviewed studies, additional large-scale and refined studies are now required to confirm the present findings.

Project description:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE:Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene three prime untranslated region (3'-UTR) polymorphisms have been reported to be associated with cancer risk. However, the conclusions of the relevant studies are not consistent. The present meta-analysis evaluates the relationship between IGF1 gene 3'-UTR polymorphisms (rs5742714, rs6214, and rs6220) and cancer risk. METHODS:Articles regarding the relationship between IGF1 rs5742714, rs6214, and rs6220 polymorphisms and cancer risk were selected by searching the PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases before April 30, 2018. Altogether, we obtained 34 case-controlled studies from 20 articles, including 21,568 cases and 31,199 controls. The strength of associations was quantified using odds ratios (ORs) and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS:In the present meta-analysis, no significant associations were detected between rs5742714, rs6214, and rs6220 and overall cancer risk. Thus, in stratified analyses, we found that rs6214 was associated with a significantly reduced risk of breast cancer under the allele, heterozygote, and dominant models (A vs G: OR, 0.94, 95% CI,0.88-1.00, P?=?.044; GA vs GG: OR, 0.88, 95% CI, 0.80-0.97, P?=?.012; AA?+?GA vs GG: OR, 0.89, 95% CI, 0.81-0.97, P?=?.011), as well as pancreatic cancer under the recessive model (AA vs GA?+?GG: OR, 0.68, 95% CI,0.53-0.87, P?=?.003). Also, rs6220 was associated with a significantly increased risk of breast cancer under the homozygote model (GG vs AA: OR, 1.23, 95% CI, 1.02-1.48, P?=?.031). In addition, rs6220 was found to increase overall cancer risk among Caucasians under the allele model (G vs A: OR, 1.06, 95% CI, 1.00-1.13, P?=?.043). CONCLUSIONS:In this meta-analysis, we investigated and reviewed the relationship between IGF1 gene 3'-UTR polymorphisms (rs5742714, rs6214, and rs6220) and cancer risk based on present epidemiological studies. Further studies are needed to draw more precise conclusions in the future.
