چکیده
PURPOSE To test the hypothesis that common sequence variants of cell cycle control genes may affect lung cancer predisposition. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We explored lung cancer risk associations of 11 polymorphisms in seven cell cycle genes in a large case-control study including 1,518 Caucasian lung cancer patients and 1,518 controls. RESULTS When individuals with variant-containing genotypes were compared with homozygous wild-type carriers, a significantly increased lung cancer risk was identified for polymorphisms in p53 intron 6 [rs1625895; odds ratio (OR), 1.29; 95% confidence interval (95% CI), 1.08-1.55] and in p27 5' untranslated region (UTR; rs34330; OR, 1.27; 95% CI, 1.01-1.60). Compared with homozygous wild-types, the homozygous variant genotypes of STK15 F31I and CCND1 G870A were associated with a significantly altered lung cancer risk with ORs of 0.58 (95% CI, 0.37-0.90) and 1.26 (95% CI, 1.03-1.53), respectively. To assess the cumulative effects of all the investigated polymorphisms on lung carcinogenesis, we conducted a combined analysis and found that compared with low-risk individuals with few adverse alleles, individuals with more adverse alleles had an increased risk in a significant dose-dependent manner (P(trend) = 0.041). This pattern was more evident in ever smokers (P(trend) = 0.037), heavy smokers (P(trend) = 0.020), and older subjects (P(trend) = 0.011). Higher-order gene-gene interactions were evaluated using the classification and regression tree analysis, which indicated that STK15 F31I and p53 intron 6 polymorphisms might be associated with lung carcinogenesis in never/light-smokers and heavy smokers, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that cell cycle gene polymorphisms and smoking may function collectively to modulate the risk of lung cancer.

Association between Genetic Variants of Nitric Oxide/cGMP Pathway and Susceptibility to Hypertension in Kermanshah Province
Background and purpose: Hypertension is a global health challenge due to its high prevalence and increased risk of cardiovascular disease. It is a multifactorial disease in which both genetic and environmental factors are involved. So far, a number of genes and pathways have been proposed to be associated with HTN, including the nitric oxide/cGMP pathway. To further clarify the role of NO /cGM...

متن کاملImputation-based association analyses identify new lung cancer susceptibility variants in CDK6 and SH3RF1 and their interactions with smoking in Chinese populations.
Cell cycle regulation, apoptosis, oxidative stress and inflammation response play critical roles in the development of smoking-induced lung cancer. However, it is still not well known whether their genetic variants are associated with lung cancer susceptibility. In this study, we performed imputation-based association analyses to investigate the influence of common genetic variants in these pat...

Objective(s): Lung cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors, which seriously threatens the health and life of the people. Recently, a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) termed lncFOXO1 was found and investigated in breast cancer. However, the effect of lncFOXO1 on lung cancer is still ambiguous. The current study aimed to uncover the functions of lncFOXO1 in l...
