“…Our findings taken together with clinical evidence that IGFBP3 promoter polymorphism contributes to prostate cancer risk [ 54 , 55 ], and its potential biomarker value in prostate cancer patients [ 56 ], support the clinical significance of IGFBP3. This study enhances our understanding of a new dynamic in the prostate tumor stroma involving IGFBP3 as an EMT regulator, and its impact on the therapeutic response of cancer epithelial cells.…”

“…They suggested that significantly increased risk of PCa was associated with low circulating IGFBP3 levels in the hospital-based control group. 35 , 36 Interestingly, in this meta-analysis, the outcomes were contrary. Therefore, a better method is required to analyze and understand the associations between IGFBP3 polymorphisms and the risk of PCa.…”

“…Recently, two meta-analyses have reported the correlation between the IGFBP3 -202A/C polymorphism and PCa risk, but there are many differences between their outcomes. The study by Mao et al, 25 including 9,238 cases and 8,741 controls, revealed that IGFBP3 A-202C polymorphisms seemed to increase the risk of PCa, but the effect was not significant. The meta-analysis by Ding et al, 24 which was based on 4,602 PCa cases and 4,880 controls from 16 case–control studies, found a significant association between IGFBP3 A-202C polymorphisms and PCa risk.…”

“…Moreover they got different conclusions about the association between IGFBP3 -202A/C polymorphism and PCa risk in race subgroup comparisons. Mao et al 25 reported that the association of –202A/C polymorphism with PCa risk was observed only in Caucasians in the heterozygous codominant model (OR =1.14, 95% CI: 1.05–1.24). In contrast, Ding et al 24 reported that the IGFBP3 -202A/C polymorphism was associated with a significantly decreased risk of PCa in Asians, but not in Europeans or African Americans.…”
