IL1 genes polymorphism and the risk of renal cell carcinoma in Chinese Han population.

ABSTRACT: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is considered a cytokine-responsive tumor. However, with the lack of diagnostic screening biomarkers, early diagnosis of RCC is challenging. Our study was investigated the association of IL1 gene polymorphisms and RCC risk. We conducted a case-control study of 291 RCC cases and 463 controls to evaluation the IL1RN of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on RCC risk. We selection of 16 SNPs in IL1RN, IL1A, IL1B genes were analyzed. Using the chi-squared (?2) test and genetic model analysis, we found an association with RCC risk for five SNPs [rs3783550 (IL1A), rs3783546 (IL1A), rs1609682 (IL1A), rs3783521 (IL1A), and rs1143623 (IL1B)] and increased the risk of RCC. Stratified analyses show that smoking, not drinking and age>55 populations relative to nonsmoking, drinking and age<55 more susceptible. Our study suggested that IL1B and IL1A may involve in the development of RCC in Chinese Han population.
