The single nucleotide polymorphisms of interleukin-10 are associated with the risk of leukaemia: Evidence from 18 case-control studies.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Interleukin-10(IL-10) is an immunosuppressive cytokine and plays an important role in inflammation and cancers. Numerous studies have explored the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms of IL-10 and leukemia, but their results were conflicting, so we performed this meta-analysis to elucidate the association between 3 common single nucleotide polymorphisms of IL-10 (rs1800896, rs1800871 and rs1800872) and risk of leukemia.We conducted a comprehensive research in Pubmed, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database disc and Embase using related terms. After strict selection, 18 studies with 2264 cases and 3846 controls were included into this meta-analysis. Odds ratio and 95% confidence interval were used to evaluate the strength of the association.We found that polymorphism of IL-10?-1082A/G was associated with decreased risk of leukemia both in overall analysis and in stratified analysis according to ethnicity and cancer type. A strong relationship was also uncovered between polymorphism of IL-10?-592C/A and increased risk of leukemia in non-Chinese.GG genotype of IL-10?-1082A/G is associated with decreased risk of leukemia, especially chronic lymphocytic leukemia. CC genotype of -592C/A is associated with decreased risk of leukemia in non-Chinese.
