Association between Paraoxonase 1 polymorphisms and risk of esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma: a case-control study involving 2,740 subjects.

ABSTRACT: Esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (EGJA) is a serious public health problem with high mortality in China. In this study, we assessed the association between Paraoxonase 1 (PON-1) rs662 C>T, rs854560 A>T polymorphisms and EGJA risk. This case-control study enrolled 2,740 participants of Asians origin from the Eastern Chinese Han populations. SNPscanTM genotyping assay was harnessed to determine the genotyping of PON1 polymorphisms. The PON-1 rs854560 A>T and rs662 C>T genotypes distribution accorded with Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. We found that there was no difference in the frequency of PON-1 rs662 C>T, rs854560 A>T genotypes between the overall EGJA cases and controls. In the subgroup analyses, the results indicated that PON-1 rs662 C>T polymorphism might be associated with a significantly decreased risk of EGJA in ever smoking group (TT vs. CC/CT: adjusted OR = 0.58, 95% CI 0.35-0.95, P = 0.029). In conclusion, our study highlights PON-1 rs662 C>T polymorphism may decrease the risk of EGJA, which interacts with the tobacco using. In the future, a fine-mapping case-control study with detailed gene-environmental data is needed to further assess these potential relationship.
