HOGG1 rs1052133 Genotypes and Risk of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in a Taiwanese Population.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND/AIM:Cells suffer from oxidative DNA damage which leads to the accumulation of 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG) adducts in our genome that can become carcinogenic. The human 8-oxoG DNA glycosylase 1 (hOGG1) plays a central role in repairing these 8-oxoGs via the base excision repair pathway. Mounting evidence has suggested that hOGG1 polymorphisms may affect the activity of hOGG1 and serve as genomic markers for the prediction of personal susceptibility to several cancers. To determine whether the commonly examined hOGG1 rs1052133 (Ser326Cys) polymorphism is associated with the risk of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) among Taiwanese children, we genotyped the hOGG1 rs1052133 (Ser326Cys) in 266 cases and 266 controls. RESULTS:The distributions of the GG, CG and CC genotypes at the hOGG1 rs1052133 were 49.2, 39.1 and 11.7% in the control group and 48.1, 36.1 and 15.8% in the case group (p=0.3656). The combined genotypes CG+CC were not associated with increased risk of childhood ALL (odds ratio [OR]=1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.74-1.47, p=0.7947). CONCLUSION:The hOGG1 rs1052133 polymorphism is not associated with susceptibility to childhood ALL in the Taiwanese population.

Project description:Leukemia is the most common type of cancer among children and adolescents worldwide. The aim of this umbrella review was (1) to provide a synthesis of the environmental risk factors for the onset of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) by exposure window, (2) evaluate their strength of evidence and magnitude of risk, and as an example (3) estimate the prevalence in the German population, which determines the relevance at the population level. Relevant systematic reviews and pooled analyses were identified and retrieved through PubMed, Web of Science databases and lists of references. Only two risk factors (low doses of ionizing radiation in early childhood and general pesticide exposure during maternal preconception/pregnancy) were convincingly associated with childhood ALL. Other risk factors including extremely low frequency electromagnetic field (ELF-MF), living in proximity to nuclear facilities, petroleum, benzene, solvent, and domestic paint exposure during early childhood, all showed some level of evidence of association. Maternal consumption of coffee (high consumption/>2 cups/day) and cola (high consumption) during pregnancy, paternal smoking during the pregnancy of the index child, maternal intake of fertility treatment, high birth weight (≥4000 g) and caesarean delivery were also found to have some level of evidence of association. Maternal folic acid and vitamins intake, breastfeeding (≥6 months) and day-care attendance, were inversely associated with childhood ALL with some evidence. The results of this umbrella review should be interpreted with caution; as the evidence stems almost exclusively from case-control studies, where selection and recall bias are potential concerns, and whether the empirically observed association reflect causal relationships remains an open question. Hence, improved exposure assessment methods including accurate and reliable measurement, probing questions and better interview techniques are required to establish causative risk factors of childhood leukemia, which is needed for the ultimate goal of primary prevention.
