<p>Genetic polymorphisms in <em>IL-7</em> and <em>IL-7R</em> are correlated with lung cancer risk in the Chinese Han population</p>

Abstract: Purpose IL-7/IL-7R axis participates in the initiation and progression of lung cancer (LC). This study aimed to explore the potential influence of IL-7/IL-7R polymorphisms on LC risk. Patients and methods In total, 1,010 participants (507 LC patients and 503 healthy controls) were enrolled. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IL-7R and one SNP in IL-7 were genotype… Show more

“…The genes involved in glycogen synthesis enable cancer cells to use glucose for anaerobic glycolysis to provide glycogen required during brief energy deficits [ 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 ]. IL-7 regulates tumor proliferation, apoptosis, and tumor lymphangiogenesis [ 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 ]. Therefore, we hypothesized that these four lncRNAs may play an important role in tumor immune regulation and glycogen metabolism in the tumor microenvironment of LUAD.…”

“…Zhang et al [27] explored the effect of IL-7R polymorphism on lung cancer risk. The rs10053847 and rs10213865 variant was observed to be correlated with a decreased breast cancer risk under multiple genetic model, and AGAA haplotypes (rs10213865, rs969129, rs118137916, and rs10053847) also increased breast cancer risk.…”

“…Beyond hematological cancer, high expression of IL-7 and IL-7R in tumor tissues of breast and lung cancer patients is positively correlated with more aggressive breast cancers and poor survival [ 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 ]. Lung cancer patients carrying IL-7R rs10213865 (AGAA haplotype) have higher lung adenocarcinoma risk [ 17 ]. However, there is few data for elucidation of IL-7R level in blood cells and tumor cells from tumor patients.…”
