Association of Foxp3 promoter polymorphisms with susceptibility to endometrial cancer in the Chinese Han women.

ABSTRACT: To evaluate the association between Foxp3 gene polymorphisms (rs3761548 and rs5902434) and susceptibility to endometrial cancer (EC), we report a hospital case-control study involving 602 women, consisting of 269 patients with EC and 333 healthy controls. Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Our results suggest that the frequency of the A allele in rs3761548 in patients with EC was significantly lower than that in healthy controls (20.3% vs 26.4%, odds ratio [OR] 0.71, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.54-0.93, P?=?.012), while the heterozygous AC genotype showed a significant protective effect on EC in codominant, dominant, and overdominant models (adjusted OR 0.64, 95% CI: 0.45-0.91, P?=?.039; OR 0.65, 95% CI: 0.47-0.91, P?=?.011; OR 0.67, 95% CI: 0.47-0.94, P?=?.02, respectively), and AA genotype was more frequent in patients with cervical invasion (recessive model: OR 3.55, 95% CI: 1.10-11.44, P?=?.046). Moreover, ATT/ATT genotype (rs5902434) was conferred a lower risk of EC in the recessive model (adjusted OR 0.58, 95% CI: 0.35-0.96, P?=?.031). From the data generated, we conclude that Foxp3 promoter polymorphisms are associated with susceptibility to EC in Chinese Han women.

Project description:BackgroundThe tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) gene plays an important role in the host immune response, which will influence the development and clearance of cancer. Polymorphism of the TNF-α promoter region is considered to influence its transcription and be a risk factor for tumorigenesis. In the current study, we evaluated the role of TNF-α promoter region polymorphisms in susceptibility to cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) and cervical cancer (CC).MethodsA total of 2732 subjects, including 1173 healthy controls, 579 patients with CIN and 980 patients with CC in a Chinese Han population, were selected for the current study. Five SNPs in the TNF-α promoter, rs1799964 (-1031 C>T), rs1800630 (-863 A>C), rs1799724 (-857 C>T), rs1800629 (-308 A>G) and rs361525 (-238 A>G), were selected and genotyped using TaqMan Assays. The association of these SNPs with CIN and cervical cancer was evaluated among healthy controls, CIN and CC patients.ResultsThe frequency distribution of rs1800629 and rs361525 alleles was significantly different between the CC group and the control group (P=0.009 and P=0.002). The rs1800629 A allele was found to be a protective factor for CC (OR=0.72; 95% CI=0.56-0.92). The rs361525 A allele was found to be a risk factor for CC (OR=1.69; 95% CI=1.21-2.38). After pathological subtyping of CC, the allele distribution of rs1800629 and rs361525 were both significantly different between the cervical squamous cell carcinoma and control groups (P=0.002 and P<0.001). The rs1800629 A allele was protective factor for cervical squamous cell carcinoma (OR=0.66; 95% CI=0.50-0.86). The rs361525 A allele was a risk factor for cervical squamous cell carcinoma (OR=1.87; 95% CI=1.32-2.65). Moreover, the genotypic frequency of rs361525 was significantly different between cervical cancer stage I and stage II (P=0.003).ConclusionThe rs1800629 and rs361525 in the TNF-α promoter are associated with susceptibility to CC in the Chinese Han population.
