Association between ALDH2 polymorphism and esophageal cancer risk in South Koreans: a case-control study

ABSTRACT:

Background

Alcohol consumption is a major risk factor for esophageal cancer; however, a high incidence of esophageal cancer is observed particularly among Eastern Asians, although they consume relatively less alcohol, presumably due to the high frequency of aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) rs671 polymorphisms. Nevertheless, the association between ALDH2 polymorphisms and esophageal cancer remains under debate. In the present study, we evaluated the association between ALDH2 rs671 polymorphisms and the risk of esophageal cancer in the South Korean population.

Methods

This study included 783 hospital based-cases and 8732 population-based controls. Information on smoking history and alcohol consumption was obtained from the medical records or interview questionnaires. Age-adjusted logistic regression analysis was performed to assess the association between ALDH2 rs671 polymorphisms and esophageal cancer.

Results

Odds ratios (ORs) for esophageal cancer in men with GA and AA genotypes were 2.75 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.34–3.23) and 0.08 (95% CI: 0.00–0.35), respectively; whereas, in women, these ratios were 2.99 (95% CI: 1.43–6.34) and 6.18 (95% CI: 1.40–19.62), respectively, taking subjects with the ALDH2 GG genotype as a reference. In men, the association between ALDH2 polymorphisms and esophageal cancer was modified by alcohol consumption.

Conclusion

In Eastern Asians, ALDH2 rs671 polymorphisms are associated with esophageal cancer, which may be linked to acetaldehyde accumulation.

Association between ALDH2 Glu487Lys polymorphism and the risk of esophageal cancer.

Project description:A meta-analysis was carried out to further evaluate the relationship between ALDH2 Glu487Lys polymorphism and esophageal cancer risk.A total number of 15 studies that included 3812 cases and 7376 controls were identified for our meta-analysis.Our findings indicated that individuals with the combination of Glu/Lys and Lys/Lys genotype had an increased risk of getting esophageal cancer (GA?+?AA vs. GG: odds ratio [OR] 1.36, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.93-2.00, P?=?0.113) with a shift pattern. Although Lys/Lys genotype carriers showed areduced esophageal cancer risk (AA vs. GA?+?GG: OR 0.41, 95% CI 0.23-0.72, P?=?0.002). Similarly, a negative association was observed under homozygote comparison (AA vs. GG: OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.29-0.85, P?=?0.011). In the China subgroup analysis, the similar results were found.This meta-analysis concluded that there was a strong association between ALDH2 Glu487Lys polymorphism and the risk of esophageal cancer. It further confirmed that ALDH2 Glu487Lys polymorphism was a high-risk factor for esophageal cancer.

Association between ALDH2 and ADH1B Polymorphisms and the Risk for Colorectal Cancer in Koreans.

Project description:PurposeExcessive alcohol consumption has been linked to an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). We evaluated the association between alcohol-related genetic variants and CRC risk.Materials and methodsThe study cohort consisted of 5,435 CRC cases and 3,553 population-based cancer-free controls. Genotype data were generated from germline DNA using the Infinium OncoArray-500K BeadChip in 2,535 cases and 2,287 controls and the Infinium Multi-Ethnic Global BeadChip in 2,900 cases and 1,266 controls. The associations between aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) rs671 and alcohol dehydrogenase 1B (ADH1B) rs1229984 polymorphisms and CRC risk were assessed using multivariate logistic regression analyses.ResultsCompared with the major homozygous ALDH2 genotype (GG), heterozygous or minor homozygous ALDH2 genotype (GA or AA, related to a low alcohol consumption) was significantly associated with a reduced risk for CRC in men (odds ratio [OR], 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.68 to 0.90), but not in women (OR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.47 to 1.05). A stronger association was found among regular drinkers (OR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.47 to 0.71 in men and OR, 0.33; 95% CI, 0.18 to 0.58 in women). No association of CRC risk with ADH1B rs1229984 genotype was found. The association between alcohol-related combined genotypes and risk of CRC was significant (p for linear=0.001). The combined genotype with the highest genetically predicted alcohol consumption (ALDH2 rs671 GG and ADH1B rs1229984 AG/GG) was associated with a high risk for CRC (OR, 1.35; 95% CI, 1.11 to 1.63).ConclusionOur study provides strong evidence for a possible causal association between alcohol consumption and CRC risk.

Positive association between ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism and essential hypertension: A case-control study and meta-analysis.

Project description:Background and objectiveSeveral studies have been conducted to examine the association between aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 family (ALDH2) rs671 polymorphism and essential hypertension (EH). However, the results remain inconsistent. This study aimed to clarify the association between ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism and EH susceptibility.MethodsOne thousand and ninety-four cases and 1236 controls who were ethnic Han Chinese were collected for this population-based case-control study. A meta-analysis was performed to calculate the pooled odds ratio and 95% confidence interval, using allele contrast, dominant, recessive, and co-dominant models using fixed or random-effect models.ResultsSignificant differences were observed between EH cases and controls at the level of both genotype (χ2 = 6.656, P<0.05) and alleles (χ2 = 6.314, P<0.05). An additional meta-analysis using 4204 cases and 5435 controls established that rs671 was significantly associated with EH (P<0.00001).ConclusionThe results of our case-control study and meta-analysis showed that there is a significant association between ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism and EH susceptibility. In addition, the results of the breakdown analysis by gender suggest a male-specific association between the ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism and EH.

Clinical significance of ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism in esophageal cancer: evidence from 31 case-control studies.

Project description:BackgroundAldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), a critical enzyme for the detoxification of alcohol, is associated with many types of cancers. To verify the relationship of ALDH2 rs671 G>A polymorphism and esophageal cancer (EC), we performed a meta-analysis of a total of 31 published data including 8,510 patients and 16,197 controls.MethodsThe pooled odds ratio (OR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using a fixed or random-effects model. Heterogeneity (PH ), publication bias, and sensitivity analysis were also determined.ResultsAlthough a protective effort was found in the rs671 homozygote comparison (AA/GG: OR=0.69; 95% CI=0.48-0.98), the heterozygote comparison was apparently associated with the risk of EC, particularly in the Chinese population (Ag/ggOR=1.39; 95% CI=1.03-1.87). Alcohol consumption remarkably increased this risk, especially in the AG genotype. Drinking men with the AG genotype appeared to show a higher risk (Ag/ggOR=4.39; 95% CI=1.24-6.55) than drinking women.ConclusionThe present meta-analysis provided advanced information regarding the association of the ALDH2 A>G polymorphism and EC. Taken together, insights from this study suggested an enhanced effect on the development of EC through a genetic-environmental interaction.

Association between ALDH2 Polymorphism and Gastric Cancer Risk in a Korean Population.

Project description:The association between alcohol and gastric cancer is stronger in East Asians than in other ethnic groups, presumably due to an aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) polymorphism. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between the ALDH2 rs671 polymorphism and gastric cancer in a Korean population. This case-control study included 3,245 hospital patients newly diagnosed with gastric cancer and 8,732 population controls. The ALDH2 rs671 genotype was classified as inactive ALDH2 (GG) or active ALDH2 (GA/AA). The risk of gastric cancer was higher in men with the inactive ALDH2 than in those with active ALDH2 (odds ratio [OR], 1.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.09-1.39), whereas no significant association was found between ALDH2 genotype and gastric cancer in women (OR, 1.00; 95% CI, 0.99-1.02). In men, the association between ALDH2 genotype and gastric cancer was stronger in current drinkers. Our findings support the previously reported association between inactive ALDH2 and high risk of gastric cancer.

Association between Glu504Lys polymorphism of ALDH2 gene and cancer risk: a meta-analysis.

Project description:The association of the aldehyde dehydrogenases-2 (ALDH2) Glu504Lys polymorphism (also named Glu487Lys, or rs671) and cancers has been investigated. This meta-analysis aims to comprehensively assess the influence of this polymorphism on the overall cancer risk.Eligible publications were retrieved according to inclusion/exclusion criteria and the data were analyzed using the Review Manager software (V5.2).A meta-analysis based on 51 case-control studies consisting of 16774 cases and 32060 controls was performed to evaluate the association between the ALDH2 Glu504Lys polymorphism and cancer risk. The comparison of genotypes Lys+ (Lys/Lys and Lys/Glu) with Glu/Glu yielded a significant 20% increased cancer risk (OR = 1.20, 95%CI: 1.03-1.39, P = 0.02, I2 = 92%). Subgroup analysis by cancer type indicated a significantly increased UADT cancer risk (OR = 1.39, 95%CI: 1.11-1.73, P = 0.004, I2 = 94%) in individuals with the Lys+ genotypes. Subgroup analysis by country indicated that individuals from Japan with the Lys+ genotypes had a significant 38% increased cancer risk (OR = 1.38, 95%CI: 1.12-1.71, P = 0.003, I2 = 93%).Our results indicated that the ALDH2 Glu504Lys polymorphism is a susceptible loci associated with overall cancers, especially esophageal cancer and among Japanese population.

Lack of association between cyclin D1 A870G (rs9344) polymorphism and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma risk: case-control study and meta-analysis.

Project description:Studies examining the association between the cyclin D1 (CCND1) A870G (rs9344 G>A) polymorphism and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) have yielded inconsistent results. Here, we conducted a hospital-based case-control study in a Chinese Han population to assess the association between the CCND1 A870G polymorphism and ESCC. We then performed a meta-analysis to further investigate this association. We recruited 629 patients with ESCC and 686 cancer-free controls. Genotyping was performed with the polymerase chain reaction-ligase detection reactions (PCR-LDR) method. The meta-analysis was performed with the STATA 12.0 software. The case-control study showed no significant difference between the ESCC cases and controls in the allele frequencies or genotype distributions of the CCND1 A870G polymorphism. To obtain a more precise estimate of this relationship, we performed a meta-analysis of seven case-control studies involving a total of 2080 ESCC cases and 2833 controls. The meta-analysis suggested that the CCND1 A870G polymorphism is not associated with a risk of ESCC. A further subgroup analysis based on ethnicity also detected no association. This study suggests that the CCND1 A870G polymorphism is not associated with the risk of ESCC.

Association between Serine/Threonine Kinase 39 Gene Polymorphism, Hypertension, and Other Cardiovascular Risk Factors in Koreans.

Project description:Background and objectivesAlthough the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Serine/Threonine Kinase 39 (STK39) and hypertension has been reported, the prior studies have been inconsistent. The aim of this study is to evaluate the association between rs3754777 and rs6749447, the two SNPs of STK39, and hypertension and other cardiovascular risk factors in Koreans, residing in the Republic of Korea.Subjects and methodsWe included 238 hypertensive patients and 260 controls. The associations between genotype and haplotype combination and hypertension were examined. In addition, possible SNP-related differences in the adjusted blood pressure and other cardiovascular risk factors were analyzed.ResultsThere was no significant association between the two SNPs and hypertension. However, the carriers of AA genotype of rs3754777 showed lower blood glucose and cholesterol levels, particularly in females. Genotype of rs6749447 was associated with the waist circumference, triglyceride, and high density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels, only in gender-stratified analysis. The effects of haplotype combinations on risk factors were compatible with genotype effects of each SNP.ConclusionAssociations between the two SNPs of STK39, rs3754777 and rs6749447, and hypertension were not significant. However, the two SNPs showed genotype-related differences in blood glucose, lipids, and waist circumference, especially in women. Further studies are needed to clarify the effect of STK39 variants in these cardiovascular risk factors.

Association between the OGG1 Ser326Cys Polymorphism and Cancer Risk: Evidence from 152 Case-Control Studies.

Project description:Although it has been suggested that the 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (OGG1) gene Ser326Cys polymorphism may be a risk factor for cancer, the conclusions from previous studies are inconsistent. Thus, we conducted an updated meta-analysis to estimate the effect of OGG1 variant genotypes on cancer susceptibility. We searched the PubMed for all eligible studies published in English for the period ending September 2014. We found the association between OGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism and cancer susceptibility based on 152 case-control studies in different genetic model comparisons (dominant model: OR = 1.053, P = 0.018; recessive model: OR = 1.108, P < 0.001; homozygote: OR = 1.135, P < 0.001; additive model: OR = 1.059, P < 0.001). However, the results from the subgroup analyses based on types of cancer, health population as controls or studies with relatively large sample size did not support the conclusion. Although the overall results of this meta-analysis showed a positive association between OGG1 variant genotypes and cancer susceptibility, the subgroup analyses by cancer type, sample size, and source of controls presented inconsistent results. Therefore, the current evidence from the meta-analysis did not support the hypothesis of OGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism as a risk factor of cancer.

Association between Int7G24A rs334354 polymorphism and cancer risk: a meta-analysis of case-control studies.

Project description:Accumulating evidences have suggested the potential association between Int7G24A (rs334354) polymorphism and cancer risk. However, results from epidemiological studies are controversial. We thus conducted this meta-analysis to clarify the association. Relevant studies were identified on electronic databases according to the inclusion criteria. A total of 13 case-control studies containing 4092 cases and 5909 controls were included in our meta-analysis. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to assess the association. The results of the overall population had suggested that Int7G24A polymorphism had an increased risk for cancer, reaching significant levels in the 2 genetic models (allele model, OR = 1.25, 95% CI 1.09-1.42, P = 0.001; dominant model, OR = 1.24, 95% CI 1.06-1.46, P < 0.008). Besides, significant association was found among Asian population (allele model, OR = 1.27, 95% CI 1.11-1.45, P < 0.001; dominant model, OR = 1.28, 95% CI 1.11-1.49, P < 0.001), whereas there was non-significant relationship detected among Caucasian population (allele model, OR = 1.08, 95% CI 0.92-1.26, P = 0.352; dominant model, OR = 1.05, 95% CI 0.87-1.26, P = 0.639). The present meta-analysis had suggested that Int7G24A polymorphism of gene TGFBR1 involved in the transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) signaling pathway had a significantly increased risk for cancer development.
