Association of RAGE rs1800625 Polymorphism and Cancer Risk: A Meta-Analysis of 18 Case-Control Studies.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND Accumulating evidence suggests that the rs1800625 polymorphism in RAGE promoter region might be associated with cancer risk; however, data from different studies show conflicting results. Here, a meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the associations between RAGE rs1800625 polymorphism and cancer risk. MATERIAL AND METHODS We searched Embase (Excerpt Medica Database), PubMed, and CNKI (Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure) databases until March 15, 2019 to identify potential studies for the meta-analysis. RESULTS Eighteen eligible studies were included in the current meta-analysis, representing 6246 cases and 6819 controls. Pooled analysis showed positive correlation between the RAGE rs1800625 polymorphism and susceptibility of cancer in recessive genetic model [CC versus TC+TT: odds ratio (OR)=1.397, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.031-1.894, P=0.031]. Subgroup analysis revealed this association in the Asian, but not Caucasian population, and this correlation was not detected in either breast or lung cancer. Sensitivity analysis indicated unstable results, which should be interpreted with caution. No publication bias was observed. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, the RAGE rs1800625 polymorphism was associated with increased overall cancer risk in Asians in recessive genetic model. However, large-scale and well-designed studies in different populations and diverse cancer types are needed for a precise conclusion.

Project description:Several studies have inspected the relationship between rs735482 polymorphism and the risk of some human cancers, but the findings remain controversial. We designed this meta-analysis to validate the association between rs735482 polymorphism and cancer risk. All articles were published before September 1, 2018 and searched in Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WangFang, and Chinese BioMedical databases, STATA 12.0 software was used for statistical analysis, which provides reasonable data and technical support for this article. A total of 10 studies were included in the meta-analysis, including 2652 cancer cases and 3536 rs735482 polymorphic controls. Data were directly extracted from these studies and odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were computed to estimate the strength of the association. By pooling all eligible studies, the rs735482 polymorphism showed no significant association with susceptibility of several cancers in all the five genetic models (the allelic model: OR = 1.019, 95% CI: 0.916-1.134, P = .731). In addition, another adjusted OR data showed a significant increased risk between the rs735482 and susceptibility of several cancers (the codominant model BB vs AA: OR = 1.353, 95% CI: 1.033-1.774, P = .028) and the stratification analysis by ethnicity indicated the rs735482 is associated with an increased risk of cancer in Chinese group (BB vs AA, OR = 1.391, 95% CI = 1.054-1.837, P = .020; AB+BB vs AA OR = 1.253, 95% CI = 1.011-1.551, P = .039). However, the ERCC1 rs735482 is associated with a decreased risk of cancer in Italian group (AB vs AA, OR = 0.600, 95% CI = 0.402-0.859, P = .012; AB + BB vs AA, OR = 0.620, 95% CI = 0.424-0.908, P = .014). The results of this meta-analysis do not support the association between rs735482 polymorphism and cancer risk. But stratified analysis showed that rs735482 significantly increased the risk of cancer in Chinese while decreased the risk of cancer in Italian. Because of the limited number of samples, larger and well-designed researches are needed to estimate this association in detail.
