Genetic Variant in CLPTM1L Confers Reduced Risk of Lung Cancer: a Replication Study in Chinese and a Meta-analysis

Abstract: Background: Rs31489 in the cleft lip and palate transmembrane1-like gene (CLPTM1L) has been identified to be associated with lung cancer through genome-wide association studies (GWAS). However, some recent replication studies yielded inconclusive results. Thus, we undertook this study to investigate the precise effect of rs31489 on lung cancer susceptibility. Materials and Methods: A hospital-based case-control study in 1,673 Chinese subjects (611 individuals with lung cancer and 1,062 controls) and a meta-ana… Show more

“…Lung cancer is the most common cancer worldwide, both in terms of incidence and mortality, accounting for 13% of the total cases and 18% of the deaths in 2008 (Luo X et al, 2014). Proteomics is one of the most recent and rapidly growing areas in cancer molecular biology.…”

“…And meta-analysis is su cient to address these issues [47] . The results of previous meta-analysis con rmed the risk association between rs2736098, rs2736100, rs401681, rs402710, and rs31489 and LC, and analyzed the differences in LC susceptibility in different ethnic groups [48] [49][50] [51][52] [53][54] [55][56] [57][58] [59][60] [61] . However, most of these studies focused on single or several loci in the TERT-CLPTM1L region, and larger scale meta-analysis was still lacking.Tian J et al [62] recently conducted a large-scale meta-analysis and con rmed that eight sites in the TERT-CLPTM1L region (rs2853677, rs2242652, rs2736098, rs2736100, rs31489, rs401681, rs402710 and rs465498) were associated with LC risk, but they did not nd any other locus effects [2] .…”
