Abstract
Recently, rs9651118 in the MTHFR gene and rs2790 in the TYMS gene have been repeatedly studied for their contribution to cancer risk. However, the results remain conflicting rather than conclusive. Therefore, we here conducted a replication case-control study and a meta-analysis to comprehensively examine the contribution of rs9651118 and rs2790 to cancer risk. A total of 1727 patients with colorectal/gastric/liver (787/460/480) cancer and 800 healthy controls were recruited, and the Sanger sequencing was applied to genotype rs9651118 and rs2790. Besides, a total of 23 eligible studies were included in the following meta-analysis. After Bonferroni correction, the results of case-control study suggested that significant associations between rs9651118 and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, rs9651118 and gastric cancer (GC) risk, and rs2790 and liver cancer (LC) risk were identified in Hubei Chinese population. The results of meta-analysis indicated that after Bonferroni correction, both rs9651118 and rs2790 were significantly associated with total cancer risk especially in Asian population and based on Sanger sequencing method, rs9651118 was significantly associated with breast cancer (BC) risk, and rs2790 was significantly associated with the risk of CRC and GC. In conclusion, the present findings revealed that the MTHFR gene rs9651118 may participate in the risk of total cancer (especially BC) in Asian population, and the TYMS gene rs2790 may be associated with the risk of total cancer (especially CRC) in Asian population and also the risk of GC in total population.
期刊介绍：
Biochemical Genetics welcomes original manuscripts that address and test clear scientific hypotheses, are directed to a broad scientific audience, and clearly contribute to the advancement of the field through the use of sound sampling or experimental design, reliable analytical methodologies and robust statistical analyses.
Although studies focusing on particular regions and target organisms are welcome, it is not the journal’s goal to publish essentially descriptive studies that provide results with narrow applicability, or are based on very small samples or pseudoreplication.
Rather, Biochemical Genetics welcomes review articles that go beyond summarizing previous publications and create added value through the systematic analysis and critique of the current state of knowledge or by conducting meta-analyses.
Methodological articles are also within the scope of Biological Genetics, particularly when new laboratory techniques or computational approaches are fully described and thoroughly compared with the existing benchmark methods.
Biochemical Genetics welcomes articles on the following topics: Genomics; Proteomics; Population genetics; Phylogenetics; Metagenomics; Microbial genetics; Genetics and evolution of wild and cultivated plants; Animal genetics and evolution; Human genetics and evolution; Genetic disorders; Genetic markers of diseases; Gene technology and therapy; Experimental and analytical methods; Statistical and computational methods.
