The TERT-CLPTM1L locus for lung cancer predisposes to bronchial obstruction and emphysema.
Clinical studies suggest that bronchial obstruction and emphysema increase susceptibility to lung cancer. We assessed the possibility of a common genetic origin and investigated whether the lung cancer susceptibility locus on chromosome 5p15.33 increases the risk for bronchial obstruction and emphysema. Three variants in the 5p15.33 locus encompassing the TERT and CLPTM1L genes were genotyped i...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphisms in the TERT-CLPTM1L region and lung cancer susceptibility in Chinese males
The objective of the present study was to analyze the relationship between genetic polymorphisms of the rs2736098 locus of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) gene and the rs401681 locus of the cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1 (CLPTM1L) gene and the risk of developing lung cancer in males in Jinzhou. A total of 214 lung cancer patients who were admitted in Jinzhou Medical Un...

متن کاملGenetic Variations in TERT-CLPTM1L Genes and Risk of Lung Cancer in Chinese Women Nonsmokers
BACKGROUND The TERT gene is the reverse transcriptase component of telomerase and is essential for the maintenance of telomere DNA length, chromosomal stability and cellular immortality. CLPTM1L gene encodes a protein linked to cisplatin resistance, and it is well conserved and express in various normal or malignant tissues, including lung. METHODS To test this hypothesis, we genotyped for tw...
متن کاملGenetic variations in TERT-CLPTM1L genes and risk of lung cancer in a Chinese population.
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to investigate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and cleft lip and palate transmembrane1-like (CLPTM1L) and lung cancer risk in a Chinese population. METHODS We performed a hospital-based case-control study, including 980 lung cancer cases and 1000 cancer-free controls matched for age a...
