CAV1 rs7804372 (T29107A) polymorphism might be a potential risk for digestive cancers: A protocol for systematic review and meta analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is an essential structural component of caveolae, regulates cellular processes through complex cellular signaling pathways, and influences tumorigenicity. However, the role of the CAV1 (rs7804372) polymorphism in digestive cancers remains inconclusive. The meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of CAV1 polymorphism on digestive cancer susceptibility and to provide a basis for precise treatment.

Methods

The databases of PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar and CNKI were used to retrieve the published studies on CAV1 (rs7804372) polymorphism and susceptibility to digestive cancers up to June 2020. Two researchers conducted study screening, data extraction, and methodological quality evaluation separately according to inclusion and exclusion criteria. Review Manager 5.3 software was used to conduct the meta-analysis.

Results

Six case-control studies were enrolled, including 2477 patients with digestive cancers and 2477 healthy controls. The pooled results showed that the CAV1 rs7804372 (T29107A) polymorphism increased the risk of digestive cancer occurrence in the allele (T vs. A: odds ratio (OR) 1.33, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.15-1.53, P < .01), homozygous (TT vs. AA: OR 1.72, 95% CI: 1.31-2.26, P < .01), heterozygous (TA vs. AA: OR 1.47, 95% CI: 1.21-1.78, P < .01), dominant (TT vs. TA + AA: OR 1.32, 95% CI: 1.18-1.48, P < .01), and recessive comparing models (TT + TA vs. AA: OR 1.61, 95% CI: 1.26-2.07, P < .01).

Conclusion

Our results indicate that the CAV1 (rs7804372) polymorphism may modify the occurrence of digestive cancers, and the presence of T allele or TT genotype of the CAV1 (rs7804372) may increase the risk of digestive cancers.

Project description:Previous studies have reported an association between the two coding polymorphisms (91T>A and 169G>A) of the serine/threonine kinase 15 (STK15) gene and the risk of digestive system cancers; however, the results are inconsistent. In the present study, a meta-analysis was carried out to assess the association between the two STK15 polymorphisms and the risk of digestive system cancers. Relevant studies were identified using PubMed, Web of Science, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang and VIP databases up to February 18, 2014. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with a 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated using the fixed or random effects model. A total of 15 case-control studies from 14 publications were included. Of these, 15 studies concerned the 91T>A polymorphism and included 7,619 cases and 7,196 controls and four studies concerned the 161G>A polymorphism and included 826 cases and 713 controls. A significantly increased risk of digestive system cancers was observed for the 91T>A polymorphism (recessive model: OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.07-1.31). In subgroup analysis by ethnicity, a significant association was detected in Asian populations (recessive model: OR, 1.21; 95% CI, 1.08-1.36) but not in Caucasian and mixed populations. Stratification by tumor type indicated that the 91T>A polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of esophageal and colorectal cancers under the recessive model (OR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.03-1.38; and OR, 1.24; 95% CI, 1.04-1.46; respectively); however, no significant association was observed between the 169G>A polymorphism and the risk of digestive system cancers in any of the genetic models. Furthermore, in subgroup analysis by ethnicity, similar results were observed in the Asian and Caucasian populations. The present meta-analysis demonstrated that the STK15 gene 91T>A polymorphism, but not the 169G>A polymorphism, may be a risk factor for digestive system cancers, particularly for esophageal and colorectal cancers.
