چکیده

Xeroderma pigmentosum group G (XPG) recognizes and excises DNA damage on the 3' side during the DNA repair process. Previous studies indicated that XPG gene polymorphisms may associate with gastric cancer susceptibility, but results were inconsistent. We evaluated the association of five potentially functional XPG polymorphisms (rs2094258 C>T, rs751402 C>T, rs2296147 T>C, rs1047768 T>C, and rs873601 G>A) with gastric cancer susceptibility in 1142 gastric cancer cases and 1173 controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using logistic regression models. Overall, no significant association was detected between any of selected polymorphism and gastric cancer risk. However, we found that individuals carrying 3-4 risk genotypes were at significantly higher risk of gastric cancer than those with 0-2 risk genotypes (OR=1.32, 95% CI=1.04-1.68, P=0.021). The stratification analysis revealed that the cumulative effect of risk genotypes (3-4 vs. 0-2) on gastric cancer were more prominent among subgroups older than 58 years and men. In conclusion, our results indicated that none of the selected XPG polymorphism could significantly alter gastric cancer susceptibility alone. These polymorphisms might collectively confer increased gastric cancer susceptibility. These findings would be strengthened by larger prospective multicenter studies involving different ethnic populations.

Association Between MTHFR Genetic Variants and Multiple Sclerosis in a Southern Iranian Population

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a demyelinating neuro- inflammatory autoimmune disease of the central nervous system. Genetic predisposition has long been suspected in the etiology of this disease. The association between MTHFR polymorphisms and MS has been ivestigated in different ethnic groups. We investigated the association between MTHFR C677T and A1298C missense variants and MS in 180 patients ...

No association between single nucleotide polymorphisms in pre-mirnas and the risk of gastric cancer in Chinese population

Objective(s): Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that miRNAs contribute to various genetic and epigenetic modifications in the pathogenesis of gastric cancer (GC). Recent studies focused on the four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of pre-miRNAs including rs11614913, rs3746444, rs2910164, and rs2292832. It was suggested that these four SNPs were significantly associated with the risk ...

Study of cyp2E1 gene RsaI/PstI polymorphisms in patients with gastric cancer in north of Iran

Background: North of Iran is amongst high incidence rate areas of gastric carcinoma where environmental carcinogenic compounds especially agricultural pesticides are massively used. Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) enzyme metabolically activates a large number of low molecular mass xenobiotics. The polymorphic nature of cyp2E1 gene control elements is associated with interindividual differences...

Association of rs9122 Polymorphism in the MCC Gene with Increasing the Risk of Gastric Cancer

Abstract Background and Aim: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. Genetic background is known to be one of the risk factors for gastric cancer. One of the genes that have been shown to be involved in various cancers, including gastric cancer, is the MCC gene. There are many SNPs in the MCC gene in the encoding and regulatory regions, one of which is rs9122, which ...

The Association Between C194T and G399A Polymorphism of XRCC1 Gene and Susceptibility to Gastric Cancer in the People Living in the Western Part of Iran

Background: Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in the world. It may result from a defect in the genes involved in DNA repair. One of the essential genes in the repair pathway is the XRCC1 gene that its polymorphisms in the human population play a role in gastric cancer susceptibility. The main purpose of this study was to investigate the association of 194C/T and 399G/A polym...
