Association between XRCC1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms and susceptibility to nasopharyngeal carcinoma: An update meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Many studies have investigated polymorphisms of X-ray repair cross-complementing protein 1 (XRCC1) and risk of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), but the results are somewhat contradictory in different studies. There is an urgent need to keep in step with the relevant observational studies to more comprehend the effects of XRCC1 variants on the NPC risk.

Methods

A systematic literature search accompanied with meta-analysis was carried out to obtain a detailed evaluation on the association between XRCC1 polymorphisms and NPC risk.

Results

Meta-analyses showed that there was no statistically significant association observed between Arg194Trp/Arg280His variants in the XRCC1 gene and NPC risk with all genetic models, when relatively larger samples were pooled into the update meta-analysis. The reassessment suggested NPC risk was significantly increased with Arg399Gln polymorphism. The significant association was identified in homozygous, recessive, and allelic models, more than previously reported.

Conclusion

We confirmed that Arg399Gln polymorphism of XRCC1 gene is a potential predictor for susceptibility to NPC, especially for Asians. More studies are required to evaluate the association in different populations.

Project description:BackgroundGynecological malignant tumor is a serious threat to women's health, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer and ovarian cancer are the most common. The eponymous protein encoded by the XRCC1 (X-ray repair cross complementation 1) gene is an important functional protein in the process of single-stranded DNA damage. Non-synonymous mutations of XRCC1 gene cause amino acid sequence changes that affect protein function and DNA repair ability, and may affect the interaction with other DNA repair proteins, leading to increased risk of tumor development. Many studies have assessed the association between XRCC1 gene polymorphism and the risk of cancer in the female reproductive system, but the results have been inconclusive. In this study, the relationship between XRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, Arg280His single nucleotide polymorphisms and susceptibility to gynecological malignancies was further explored by meta-analysis.MethodsEnglish database: Pubmed, Medline, Excerpta Medica Database, Cochrance, etc; Chinese database: China national knowledge infrastructure, Wanfang Database, etc. STATA14 was used for statistical analysis, such as odd ratio (OR) value, subgroup analysis, heterogeneity test, sensitivity analysis, and publication bias.ResultsIn gynecologic cancers, the allele frequency difference of Arg399Gln case control group was statistically significant (GvsA: P = .007). There was no significant difference in allele frequency in the Arg194Trp and Arg280His case control groups (P = .065, 0.198). In different gene models, Arg399Gln was significantly correlated with gynecologic cancers susceptibility (GGvs AA: OR 0.91; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.85 0.98); Arg194Trp was significantly correlated with gynecologic cancers susceptibility (CCvs TT: OR 0.94; 95% CI 0.88,1.00; CCvs CT: OR 0.97; 95% CI 0.90, 1.05); Arg280His was significantly correlated with gynecologic cancers susceptibility (GGvs AA: OR 0.98; 95% CI 0.94, 1.02; GGvs GA: OR 1.00;95% CI 0.97, 1.04). In the subgroup analysis, Arg399Gln and Arg194Trp were significantly correlated with gynecologic cancers susceptibility in the Asian race (P = .000, 0.049). In the analysis of different cancer subgroups, Arg399Gln and cervical cancer susceptibility were statistically significant (P = .039). Arg194Trp and endometrial cancer susceptibility were statistically significant (P = .033, 0.001).ConclusionsXRCC1 Arg399Gln, Arg194Trp, Arg280His single nucleotide polymorphisms were associated with gynecologic cancer susceptibility. Arg399Gln genotype was statistically significant in relation to cervical cancer susceptibility. Arg194Trp genotype was statistically significant in relation to endometrial cancer susceptibility.
