Genetic 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 کاملAssociation of genetic polymorphisms in TERT-CLPTM1L with lung cancer in a Chinese population.
Genome-wide association studies in several ethnic groups have reported that polymorphisms of the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) and cleft lip and palate transmembrane 1-like (CLPTM1L) genes, located on 5p15.33, are associated with susceptibility to lung cancer. However, whether genetic variants of TERT-CLPTM1L are associated with an increased risk of lung cancer in the Chinese Han popu...
متن کاملThe 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 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 کاملCLPTM1L polymorphism and lung cancer risk.
The association of Cleft Lip and Palate Transmembrane Protein 1 (CLPTM1L) rs31489 polymorphism with risk of lung cancer has been evaluated in many studies; however, the results from these studies are controversial. Thus, further analysis on association between CLPTM1L rs31489 polymorphism and risk of lung cancer is needed among a larger study population. A literature search in PubMed, Embase, W...
