Association between MDM2 rs2279744, MDM2 rs937283, and p21 rs1801270 polymorphisms and retinoblastoma susceptibility

Abstract: Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common intra-ocular malignancy in children. The association of rs2279744, and rs937283 in MDM2 gene, and p21 rs1801270 polymorphism and RB development have been demonstrated. To provide a comprehensive assessment of and to clarify associations between the 3 SNPs (MDM2 rs2279744, MDM2 rs937283, and p21 rs1801270) and the risk of RB, we performed a meta-analysis of all the eligible case-control studies. We searched English databases include PubMed, Embase, Google Scholar, and Coch… Show more

“…In their study, the G allele was associated with an increased risk of developing GC either when G carriers vs. AA (OR, 1.34; P=0.024), and despite not being statistically significant, an association was observed for GG vs. A carriers (OR, 1.87; P=0.061). This SNP has been described to significantly enhance the transcriptional activity of the MDM2 gene increasing the mRNA and protein levels, and additionally, this polymorphism has been studied in other types of cancer, such as lung cancer (26), liver cancer (39) and retinoblastoma (40), with similar effects reported.…”

“…It is likely that C-to-T transition in rs1059234 could increase p21 mRNA expression by preventing degradation of mRNA, and thus possess a greater ability to control ROS levels in response to oxidative stress, ultimately reducing the loss of the mtDNA copy number caused by exposure to COEs. Moreover, the rs1801270 is a C-to-A transversion occurring in codon 31 of p21 gene that causes an amino acid substitution from serine to arginine, which is expected to affect the DNA binding zinc finger domain of protein, eventually affecting expression and activity of p21 ( 39 ). Our study showed that the rs1801270 was in strong linkage disequilibrium with the rs1059234, which suggests genotypes in the two loci are strongly correlated ( 35 ).…”
