COX-2 rs5275 and rs689466 polymorphism and risk of lung cancer: A PRISMA-compliant meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an inducible enzyme that mediates the synthesis of prostaglandin, which plays an important role in the inflammation response. The overexpression of COX-2 in lung cancer has been found in several studies, suggesting that COX-2 contributes to carcinogenesis. There are many previous case-control studies focused on the association between COX-2 polymorphism and lung cancer risk, however, the conclusion remained controversial. OBJECTIVES:We performed this meta-analysis to evaluate the association between COX-2 rs5275 and rs689466 polymorphism and susceptibility to lung cancer. METHODS:A systematic literature research was conducted on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, OVID, Web of Science, and Google Scholar up to November 30, 2017. The quality of studies was assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa scale. We combined odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in 5 different genetic models for evaluation under a fixed-effect model or random-effect model. Subgroup analysis was performed according to source of control, ethnicity, pathological types, and smoking status. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also conducted. RESULTS:Eventually, 14 eligible studies were included in our meta-analysis. We found rs5275 gene polymorphism decreased the risk of lung cancer under heterozygote model (OR: 0.91, 95% CI: 0.84-0.98, P?=?.02). COX-2 rs689466 gene polymorphism was also related to a significantly reduced risk under allele (OR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.82-0.95, P?=?.001), homozygote (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.68-0.95, P?=?.01), heterozygote (OR: 0.81, 95% CI: 0.72-0.91, P?

Project description:BACKGROUND:Murine double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) plays an important role in the downregulation of P53 tumor suppressor gene. MDM2 inhibits P53 transcriptional activity and thereby results in accelerated tumor formation. Overexpression of MDM2 has been found in several cancer types including endometrial cancer. SNP309 is located in the promoter region of MDM2 and contributes to the overexpression of MDM2. The association between MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism and endometrial cancer risk has been investigated in several studies; however, the conclusion remains controversial. OBJECTIVES:We performed the present meta-analysis to give a comprehensive conclusion of the association between MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism and endometrial cancer susceptibility. METHODS:We conducted a literature research on PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, OVID, Web of Science, Wan Fang, CNKI, and CQVIP databases up to July 31, 2018. Newcastle-Ottawa scale was used to assess the quality of studies. We evaluated the strength of association by combining odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in 5 different genetic models under a fixed-effect model or random-effect model. We further conducted subgroup analysis by ethnicity, source of control, histological type, clinical type, grade, and stage of tumor. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias were also performed. RESULTS:Nine eligible studies were finally included in our meta-analysis. We found MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism increased the risk of endometrial cancer under allele model (OR: 1.23, 95% CI: 1.06-1.41, P?=?.005), homozygote model (OR: 1.43, 95% CI: 1.13-1.81, P?=?.003) and recessive model (OR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.17-2.04, P?=?.002). Subgroup analysis suggested a similar elevated risk in both Asians and Caucasians. We identified a strong association of enhanced susceptibility to endometrial cancer in endometrioid group (OR: 2.13, 95% CI: 1.28-3.54, P?=?.004) and Type I group (OR: 1.89, 95% CI: 1.25-2.86, P?=?.002) under dominant model. We identified no significant publication bias according to Egger's test. CONCLUSIONS:Our meta-analysis suggested that MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism increased the risk of endometrial cancer significantly, especially in endometrioid and Type I endometrial cancer, indicating MDM2 could serve as a potential diagnostic factor marker for endometrial cancer.

Project description:ObjectiveEndometriosis is a common chronic, gynecological disease. Despite many studies on the role of N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) in endometriosis, its clinical significance is unclear. In this study, associations between NAT2 phenotypes as well as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within NAT2 (i.e. rs1799929, rs1799930, rs1208, and rs1799931) and endometriosis risk were evaluated using a meta-analysis approach.MethodsEmbase, PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure), Wanfang databases, Cochrane Library for clinical trials, and Web of Science were searched to identify relevant articles. ORs (odds ratios) and 95% CIs (95% confidence intervals) were used to estimate the associations between NAT2 polymorphisms and endometriosis risk. Heterogeneity among included studies was also assessed. In addition, a subgroup analysis of NAT2 phenotypes and endometriosis risk based on ethnicity was performed.ResultsNine case-control studies met the inclusion criteria. The odds ratio was 2.30 (95% CI: 1.61-3.28) for the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype versus the intermediate + fast acetylation phenotype in the Asian population. These results suggest that Asian individuals with the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype have a 130% increased risk of endometriosis. A significant association was also found for rs1799930 (OR = 0.74; 95% CI, 0.59-0.92), suggesting that individuals with this mutant genotype have a 26% decreased risk of endometriosis.ConclusionsThe rs1799930 mutant genotypes are associated with a decreased risk of endometriosis. No statistically significant associations were found between rs1799931, rs1208, or rs1799929 and endometriosis. Based on a subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype was found to increase the risk of endometriosis in Asians. No statistically significant associations were found between the NAT2 slow acetylation phenotype and endometriosis risk in Caucasians. Accordingly, NAT2 phenotypes and SNPs are potential biomarkers for the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis.

Project description:BackgroundWe performed a meta-analysis to more precisely evaluate the association between the cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) -1772T/C polymorphism and overall gastric cancer (GC) risk and the influence of ethnicity and the source of controls on that association.MethodsA systematic literature search was performed in PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science (WOS) Database, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China biomedical literature database (CBM), Wanfang database, and VIP. Two investigators independently reviewed the articles, and disagreements were resolved by discussion and consensus. The odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) was used to assess the strength of the association between the CTLA-4 -1722T/C polymorphism and GC risk, based on the genotype frequencies in cases and controls. The meta-analyses were performed with Stata 12.0, using two-sided P values. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was calculated by TSA Software.ResultsOverall, we identified 5 studies including 1039 GC cases and 2136 controls that evaluated the association of the CTLA-4 -1722T/C polymorphism and GC risk. Overall, there was no significant association between the CTLA-4-1722T/C polymorphism and the risk of GC. In the subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, the results showed that the relationship between the CTLA-4 -1722T/C polymorphism and GC susceptibility was strongest in the Chinese population rather than in the Iranian population (TC vs CC: OR = 1.405, 95% CI: 1.100-1.796, P = .007; TC+TT vs CC: OR = 1.329, 95% CI: 1.052-1.680, P = .017). Then, there was a significant association between the CTLA-4 -1722T/C polymorphism and the risk of GC in studies with HB controls. However, the above correlation can only be reflected in specific populations and gene models. Therefore, we believe that the evidence of this correlation is insufficient.ConclusionOur meta-analysis showed that the CTLA-4 -1722T/C polymorphism may be associated with the susceptibility to GC. However, the slight correlation can only be reflected in specific populations and gene models. Therefore, we believe that this association is negligible. The large and well-designed case-control studies are needed to validate our findings.
