“…The identified SNP (rs2069762) is in the promoter region of IL2 and the expression of the T allele results in decreased IL2 production, shifting the Th1/Th2 balance of immune response towards the Th2 subtype, as frequently reported in atopic subjects (Christensen et al, 2006). The expression of the T allele of this SNP has been linked with predisposition to allergic diseases (Christensen et al, 2006), asthma and atopic eczema in a Danish cohort; although it is not associated with cancer risk, it could represent a possible mechanism to understand the pathophysiology of bendamustine-related skin rash (Christensen et al, 2006;Wang et al, 2015).…”

“…A suggestive interaction was detected between nonfermented soy intake and IL2 polymorphism (rs2069762) for gastric cancer risk, especially for intestinal-type. The IL2 gene is an important cytokine family member that plays a critical role in carcinogenesis through the proliferation of activated T lymphocytes and participates in termination of the lymphocyte response by inducing suppressive T cells [ 29 ]. The IL2 gene polymorphism, which is associated with an increased risk of gastric atrophy induced by H. pylori infection, might predispose individuals to gastric cancer [ 10 ].…”

“…The IL2 gene polymorphism, which is associated with an increased risk of gastric atrophy induced by H. pylori infection, might predispose individuals to gastric cancer [ 10 ]. Previous studies have investigated the association between rs2069762 polymorphism and cancer risk, but the results remain controversial [ 10 , 29 ]. We found a suggestive interactive effect between by rs2069762 and nonfermented soy consumption on intestinal-type gastric cancer risk, which suggests a possible interactive role between soy phytochemicals and the pro-inflammatory properties of IL2 cytokines.…”
