Rs401681 polymorphism in TERT-CLPTM1L was associated with bladder cancer risk: A meta-analysis
Objective(s):Genome-wide association studies have identified a number of genetic variants of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT), cleft lip and palate transmembrane1-like (CLPTM1L) associated with the risk of bladder cancer. Rs401681 polymorphism in TERT-CLPTM1L was of special interest for bladder cancer risk, whereas the results were inconclusive. Materials and Methods:Publications illustr...
متن کاملTERT-CLPTM1L Polymorphism rs401681 Contributes to Cancers Risk: Evidence from a Meta-Analysis Based on 29 Publications
BACKGROUND Some common genetic variants of TERT-CLPTM1L gene, which encode key protein subunits of telomerase, have been suggested to play a crucial role in tumorigenesis. The TERT-CLPTM1L polymorphism rs401681 was of special interest for cancers risk but with inconclusive results. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We performed a comprehensive meta-analysis of 29 publications with a total of 912...
متن کاملUpdated field synopsis and systematic meta-analyses of genetic association studies in cutaneous melanoma: the MelGene database.
We updated a field synopsis of genetic associations of cutaneous melanoma (CM) by systematically retrieving and combining data from all studies in the field published as of August 31, 2013. Data were available from 197 studies, which included 83,343 CM cases and 187,809 controls and reported on 1,126 polymorphisms in 289 different genes. Random-effects meta-analyses of 81 eligible polymorphisms...
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 کاملThe identification of two regulatory ESCC susceptibility genetic variants in the TERT-CLPTM1L loci
The chromosome 5p15.33 TERT-CLPTM1L region has been identified by genome-wide association studies as a susceptibility locus of multiple malignancies. However, the involvement of this locus in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) development is still largely unclear. We fine-mapped the TERT-CLPTM1L region through genotyping 15 haplotype-tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (htSNPs) using...
