Genetic polymorphisms of cyclooxygenase‐2 and colorectal adenoma risk: The Self Defense Forces Health Study

Abstract: Cyclooxygenase (COX) is a key enzyme in the formation of prostaglandins, and an inducible isoform of COX, COX-2, has been implicated in colorectal carcinogenesis. This study investigated the relation of COX-2 polymorphisms (-1195G>A, -765G>C and 8160A>G) to colorectal adenomas in a case-control study of male officials in the Self Defense Forces (SDF). The study subjects were 455 cases of colorectal adenoma and 1052 controls with no polyps who underwent total colonoscopy. Genotypes were determined using the pol… Show more

“…No significant difference was detected in the frequency of SNP of the −765G>C SNP between patients and controls. The frequencies of the −1195G>A and −765G>C SNP in the healthy controls were similar to those obtained from a large Japanese population study 28 . These results suggest that the −1195GG genotype is protective against HCV infection.…”

“…One possible reason for COX-2 polymorphisms being only associated with certain cancer types (22,28,36,37,41) might be due to different cancers having distinct molecular signatures. For example, the lung carcinogenesis activation pathway occurs through a variety of mechanisms, including activating mutations in the genes for epidermal growth factor receptor ( EGFR ), KRAS , p53, and also echinoderm microtubule-associated protein-like 4 ( EML4 ) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase ( ALK ) fusions.…”

“…Thus, a final total of 38 case-control studies in 37 articles which met our inclusion criteria were identified, including 10814 cases and 16174 controls. Among 38 cases and controls, there were 20 case-controls of Asians (Hamajima et al, 2001;Koh et al, 2004;Liu et al, 2006;Guo et al, 2007;Tan et al, 2007;Chiang et al, 2008;Lin et al, 2008;Saxena et al, 2008;Ueda et al, 2008;Xing et al, 2008;Xu et al, 2008;Tang et al, 2009;Upadhyay et al, 2009;Zhao et al, 2009;Mittal et al, 2010;He et al, 2011;Chang et al, 2012;Li et al, 2012;Shin et al, 2012), 11 of Caucasians (Cox et al, 2004;Pereira et al, 2006;Hou et al, 2007;Moons et al, 2007;Sitarz et al, 2008;Andersen et al, 2009;Hoff et al, 2009;Iglesias et al, 2009;Kristinsson et al, 2009;Pereira et al, 2010;Daraei et al, 2012), 4 of Americans (Ulrich et al, 2005;Gunter et al, 2006;Gong et al, 2009;Thompson et al, 2009), and 1 of Africans (Bye et al, 2011), and 2 of Mixed (Bye et al, 2011;Wang et al, 2012). 9 investigated gastric cancer (Liu ...…”
