Flap endonuclease-1 rs174538 G>A polymorphisms are associated with the risk of esophageal cancer in a Chinese population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Esophageal cancer has a high mortality rate, particularly in Asia, and there are obvious racial differences in regard to incidence. The purpose of our study was to assess the genetic susceptibility of functional single nucleotide polymorphisms in flap endonuclease-1 (FEN1) in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma ESCC.

Methods

Clinical blood samples of 629 ESCC cases and 686 control samples were collected. The ligation detection reaction method was used to determine FEN 1 rs174538 G>A genotypes.

Results

A significantly decreased risk of ESCC was associated with FEN1 rs174538 GA genotypes among patients under 63 years old.

Conclusions

Our results suggest that functional polymorphism FEN1 rs174538 G>A might affect personal susceptibility to ESCC. This result provides a solid theoretical foundation for further clinical study using larger sample sizes.

IGFBP3 polymorphisms and risk of esophageal cancer in a Chinese population.

Project description:Esophageal cancer is the sixth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. It is very aggressive with a poor prognosis. Besides environmental risk factors, genetic factors might contribute to the esophageal cancer carcinogenesis. To evaluate the association between the risk of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and genetic variants in IGFBP3, we conducted a hospital-based case-control study to assess the genetic effects of these SNPs. A total of 380 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) cases and 380 controls were recruited for this study. The genotypes were determined using a matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). The IGFBP3 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2270628 C>T, rs10282088 C>A, and rs3110697 G>A were associated with a significantly decreased risk of ESCC. However, our results were obtained with a limited sample size. To confirm the current findings, larger studies with other ethnic populations are required.

N-acetyltransferase 2 polymorphisms and risk of esophageal cancer in a Chinese population.

Project description:Esophageal cancer was the fifth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related death in China in 2009. Genetic factors might play an important role in the carcinogenesis of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We conducted a hospital-based case-control study to evaluate ten NAT2 tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the risk of ESCC. Six hundred and twenty-nine ESCC cases and 686 controls were recruited. Their genotypes were determined using the ligation detection reaction method. In the single locus analyses, there was a borderline statistically significant difference in genotype frequencies of NAT2 rs1565684 T>C SNP between the cases and the controls (p = 0.057). The NAT2 rs1565684 CC genotype was associated with a borderline significantly increased risk for ESCC (CC vs. TT: adjusted OR = 1.77, 95% CI = 0.97-3.21, p = 0.063 and CC vs. TT/TC: adjusted OR = 1.68, 95% CI = 0.93-3.04, p = 0.085). The association was evident among older patients and patients who never drunk. After the Bonferroni correction, in all comparison models, NAT2 rs1565684 T>C SNP was not associated with ESCC risk (p>0.05). For the other nine NAT2 SNPs, after Bonferroni correction, in all comparison models, the nine SNPs were also not associated with ESCC risk (p>0.05). Thus, nine NAT2 tagging SNPs were not associated with risk of ESCC. NAT2 rs1565684 T>C SNP might play a slight role in ESCC etiology. Additional, larger studies and tissue-specific biological characterization are required to confirm the current findings.

Long non-coding RNA CASC8 polymorphisms are associated with the risk of esophageal cancer in a Chinese population.

Project description:BackgroundEsophageal cancer (EC) is an important disease that threatens public health and safety. Although there are numerous treatment options for esophageal cancer including surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, these treatments have limited effects. Its morbidity and mortality vary widely among countries and regions. Esophageal cancer is classified into squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and esopheageal adenocarcinoma (EADC). Here, we examined the genetic susceptibility to ESCC in relation to functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CASC8.MethodsTo detect the susceptibility to ESCC in relation to functional polymorphisms in CASC8, a hypothesis-driven study was performed to identify CASC8 SNPs in 949 patients with ESCC and 1369 control subjects.ResultsThe CASC8 rs1562430 GG genotype was significantly associated with increased ESCC risk in men, patients younger than 63 years, non-smokers, and nondrinkers.ConclusionsCASC8 rs1562430 A > G may cause susceptibility to ESCC and CASC8 SNPs may play a vital role in ESCC risk, thereby serving as a potential biomarker for diagnosing ESCC. A larger sample size and multifactor information are needed to confirm these results.

Contribution of <i>ZBTB20</i> Polymorphisms to Esophageal Cancer Risk Among the Chinese Han Population.

Project description:BackgroundZBTB20 was overexpressed in esophageal cancer (EC). The study aimed to identify genotypes of ZBTB20 polymorphisms and their correlation with EC occurrence in a Chinese Han population.MethodsFour single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in ZBTB20 were randomly selected for genotyping through Agena MassARRAY system among 525 EC patients and 522 healthy controls. Multiple genetic models were applied to assess the association of ZBTB20 polymorphisms with EC susceptibility by calculating odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsRs10934270 was associated with lower EC susceptibility (OR = 0.64, p = 0.004) with statistical power >90% in overall analysis. Specifically, the correlation of rs10934270 with EC susceptibility was found in subgroups including patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), males, subjects aged ≤65 years, subjects with BMI ≤ 24 kg/m2, and smokers. Rs9841504 might be a risk-increasing factor for ESCC. Moreover, rs9288999 in subjects aged ≤65 years and rs73230612 in females were related to lower EC risk.ConclusionOur research is the first to report that ZBTB20 rs10934270 is associated with reduced EC susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. These data provide a scientific basis for understanding the influence of the ZBTB20 gene on EC occurrence.

<i>PLCE1</i> Polymorphisms and Risk of Esophageal and Gastric Cancer in a Northwestern Chinese Population.

Project description:The reported risk susceptibility between phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) polymorphisms and esophageal cancer (EC) and gastric cancer (GC) remained inconsistent and controversial, especially on variants other than rs2274223. The relationship between PLCE1 polymorphisms and gene expression is also unclear. Here we conducted a case-control study from northwest China, genotyped seven tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PLCE1 with multiplexed SNP MassARRAY assay. Stratified analysis was carried out and PLCE1 expression was evaluated in specified groups with the method of qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Results showed that the minor alleles of rs3765524, rs2274223, and rs10509670 were associated with increased risk of EC and GC. Linkage disequilibrium analysis revealed protective haplotypes of CCAAGTC and CCAA. By stratification, a more significant association was found in subgroups of male, age ≥ 54, tumor stages of I-II and tumor size ≤ 5 cm, EC and cardia cancer (CC) of stomach, and moderate to well differentiated squamous carcinoma. In addition, a significant association for rs3765524 with noncardia cancer (NCC) and adenocarcinoma which is predominant in China was also observed. Further expression analysis identified that PLCE1 was downregulated in NCC tissues comparing to their adjacent noncancerous tissues, and its protein expression was higher in genotype rs3765524 CT/TT than in rs3765524 CC. In summary, our study suggests that PLCE1 polymorphisms may affect its gene expression and are associated with not only EC and CC, but also, to some extent, NCC risk in this study population.

COL6A3 polymorphisms were associated with lung cancer risk in a Chinese population.

Project description:BackgroundLung cancer is one of the leading cause of cancer-related death in the world. Recently, many clinical researches have reported that COL6A3 had strong role in many diseases. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in COL6A3 and lung cancer susceptibility.MethodEight variants in COL6A3 were genotyped in a Chinese Han population including 510 cases and 495 controls using Agena MassARRAY. Genetic models and haplotype analyses were used to calculate the association between COL6A3 SNPs and lung cancer risk. And we assessed the relative risk by the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI).ResultsIn our results, we observed that rs115510139 was linked to an increased risk of lung cancer in the codominant (adjusted OR = 1.61, 95%CI: 1.14-2.27, p = 0.007), dominant (adjusted OR = 1.36, 95%CI: 1.02-1.83, p = 0.037), recessive (adjusted OR = 1.41, 95%CI: 1.07-1.85, p = 0.015), and log-additive (adjusted OR = 1.27, 95%CI: 1.07-1.51, p = 0.006) models. After gender stratification analysis, we found that rs115510139, rs3736341 and rs12052971 were significant in males but were non-significant in females. Rs115510139 also can increase the risk of lung cancer in the population of age less than 61 years. When analyzed for the association with lung squamous carcinoma, rs13032404, rs115510139 and rs3736341 were related to the risk of lung cancer.ConclusionsOur findings indicated potential associations between COL6A3 polymorphisms and lung cancer risk, which may contribute to the identification of lung cancer patients in a Chinese population.

Flap endonuclease 1 polymorphisms (rs174538 and rs4246215) contribute to an increased cancer risk: Evidence from a meta-analysis.

Project description:Flap endonuclease-1 (FEN1) is a key factor during the maintenance of genomic stability and protection against tumorigenesis. Since the identification of functional polymorphisms of FEN1 (rs174538 and rs4246215), numerous studies have evaluated the association between the two single-nucleotide polymorphisms and cancer risk. To derive a more precise estimation, a meta-analysis was performed on the association between the FEN1 polymorphisms (rs174538 and rs4246215) and cancer risk. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to estimate the strength of the associations. Thirteen case-control studies, including 5,108 cases and 6,382 case-free controls, were identified. For rs174538, individuals with the GG or GA genotype had an increased risk of cancer when compared to the -69AA genotype (AA vs. GG: OR, 1.85; 95% CI, 1.65-2.08; P<0.00001; AA vs. GA: OR, 1.43; 95% CI, 1.27-1.60; P<0.00001; AA vs. GG+GA: OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.16-1.42; P<0.00001). For rs4246215, similar results were identified, as the GG or GT genotype was significantly associated with the increased cancer risk when compared to TT (TT vs. GG: OR, 1.71; 95% CI, 1.52-1.92; P<0.00001; TT vs. GT: OR, 1.34; 95% CI, 1.20-1.50; P<0.00001; TT vs. GG+GT: OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 1.35-1.67; P<0.00001). The present meta-analysis indicated that FEN1 rs174538 and rs4246215 polymorphisms may contribute to an increased risk of cancer.

The Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of AP1S1 are Associated with Risk of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Chinese Population.

Project description:BackgroundThe σ1A subunit of the adaptor protein 1 (AP1S1) participates in various intracellular transport pathways, especially the maintenance of copper homeostasis, which is pivotal in carcinogenesis. It is therefore rational to presume that AP1S1 might also be involved in carcinogenesis. In this hospital-based case-control study, we investigated the genetic susceptibility to ESCC in relation to SNPs of AP1S1 among Chinese population.MethodsA database containing a total of 1303 controls and 1043 ESCC patients were retrospectively studied. The AP1S1 SNPs were analyzed based on ligation detection reaction (LDR) method. Then, the relationship between ESCC and SNPs of AP1S1 was determined with a significant crude P<0.05. Then the logistic regression analysis was used for the calculation for adjusted P in the demographic stratification comparison if a significant difference was observed in the previous step.ResultsAP1S1 rs77387752 C>T genotype TT was an independent risk factor for ESCC, while rs4729666 C>T genotype TC and rs35208462 C>T genotype TC were associated with a lower risk for ESCC, especially in co-dominant model and allelic test for younger, male subjects who are not alcohol-drinkers nor cigarette smokers.ConclusionAP1S1 rs77387752, rs4729666 and rs35208462 polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to ESCC in Chinese individuals. AP1S1 SNPs may exert an important role in esophageal carcinogenesis and could serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers.

RTEL1 polymorphisms are associated with lung cancer risk in the Chinese Han population.

Project description:RTEL1 (regulator of telomere elongation helicase 1; OMIM 608833) gene polymorphisms were linked to lung cancer (LC) susceptibility in a cancer genome-wide association study (GWAS) Here, we assessed whether seven previously reported RTEL1 polymorphisms influenced LC risk in Han Chinese population. All study samples (554 LC cases and 696 cancer-free controls) were collected from the Affiliated Hospital of Xizang Minzu University in China. We assessed associations between SNPs and LC risk using various several genetic models (codominant, dominant, recessive, overdominant, and additive). Whereas rs2738780 showed a protective effect against LC (Odds ratio (OR) = 0.80 ;95% confidence interval (CI): 0.638 = 0.998; p = 0.048), rs7261546(OR = 4.16; 95% CI: 1.35-12.82; p = 0.007), rs6062299(OR=5.08; 95% CI: 1.43-18.10; p = 0.005) and rs3787098(OR = 5.10; 95% CI: 1.43-18.15; p = 0.004) were all associated with increased LC susceptibility (recessive model). Haplotype analysis suggested that ''CTC'' was associated with a 0.8-fold decrease in LC risk (OR = 0.80, 95% CI, 0.63-1.00; Pearson's p = 0.05). These findings suggest a potential association between RTEL1 polymorphisms and LC risk in a Chinese Han population.

PD-1 gene rs10204525 and rs7421861 polymorphisms are associated with increased risk and clinical features of esophageal cancer in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:Programmed death-1 (PD-1) polymorphisms have been associated with esophageal cancer risk. Here, the aims of this case-control study were to explore whether three PD-1 polymorphisms (rs10204525, rs7421861, and rs36084323) were related with the risk and clinical features of esophageal cancer in Chinese Han subjects (n = 814 cases and 961 controls). We found that rs10204525 and rs7421861, but not rs36084323, conferred increased susceptibility to esophageal cancer. Subgroup analysis revealed that all three loci increased the risk of esophageal cancer among men, and that rs10204525 and rs7421861 correlated with increased risk among patients ≥ 60 years old. The rs10204525 and rs7421861 polymorphisms were associated with higher TNM stage, and rs10204525 was associated with distant metastasis. The combination of smoking and either the rs10204525 or rs7421861 genotype conferred an increased risk to esophageal cancer, which is indicative of potential gene-environment interactions. The rs10204525 and rs7421861 polymorphisms correlated with increased PD-1 gene and protein levels, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed higher PD-1 gene expression was related to poorer overall survival. These data indicate the rs10204525 and rs7421861 polymorphisms of PD-1 gene confer an increased risk of esophageal cancer among Chinese Han individuals.
