Association of XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism with bladder cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis.
Gene(2014)
Abstract
Genetic variations in DNA repair genes are thought to modify DNA repair capacity and may to be related to cancer susceptibility. However, epidemiological study results have been inconsistent. In this meta-analysis, we assessed 24 case–control studies of association between the X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) Arg399Gln polymorphism and bladder cancer susceptibility in the general population and in Asian and non-Asian subgroups. A moderately significant association with bladder cancer risk was found for AG vs GG (OR=1.110, 95% CI=1.018–1.210). No significant associations with bladder cancer risk were found for AA vs GG (OR=0.942, 95% CI=0.823–1.077), the dominant model AA/AG vs GG (OR=1.075, 95% CI=0.990–1.167) and the recessive model AA vs AG/GG(OR=0.890, 95% CI=0.788–1.005). In subgroup analysis, a moderately significant association was also found for AG vs GG (OR=1.091, 95% CI=1.008–1.180) in non-Asian subgroup. The analysis suggests that the XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism might be a moderate risk factor for bladder cancer, especially in non-Asian population.
