Interleukin-1B 31 C>T polymorphism combined with Helicobacter pylori-modified gastric cancer susceptibility: evidence from 37 studies.


ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Interleukin-1-beta (IL-1β) is a pro-inflammatory cytokine and potent inhibitor of gastric acid secretion. Some studies provided evidence of the association between IL-1B 31 polymorphism and gastric cancer risk while other studies did not. Therefore, we conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis to reassess the association. A systematic literature search of the PubMed and EMBASE databases identified 37 studies with 6108 cases and 8980 controls for this meta-analysis. The crude odd ratios (ORs) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to evaluate the strength of the association. Meta-regression was used to determine the major source of heterogeneity across the studies. The pooled analysis did not suggest the significant association of IL-1B 31 C>T polymorphism with gastric cancer risk. Stratified analysis was performed by ethnicity, source of control, genotype method, and indicated a significantly increased gastric cancer risk associated with IL-1B 31T variant in the population-based subgroup (heterozygous model: OR = 1.22, 95% CI = 1.03-1.45). Moreover, stratified analysis by Helicobacter pylori infection status indicated that IL-1B 31 polymorphism increased gastric cancer risk in infection-positive subgroup (homozygous model: OR = 1.35, 95% CI = 1.02-1.78; heterozygous model: OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.04-1.66; recessive model: OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 1.04-1.61). The study suggested that IL-1B 31 polymorphism might confer susceptibility to gastric cancer in the presence of H. pylori infection, indicating a gene-environment interaction in gastric carcinogenesis.
