The DNMT3B -579 G>T promoter polymorphism and risk of lung cancer

Abstract: Abstract. The present study aimed to investigate the association of the -579 G>T polymorphism in the DNMT3B promoter with susceptibility to lung cancer. A total of 174 lung cancer patients and 135 healthy controls from the northern part of China were enrolled, and were matched for gender and age. All subjects were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction-fragment length polymorphism analysis and confirmed by DNA sequencing. Stratification analyses were used to study the subgroups of subjects by age a… Show more

“…20,27 However, the results of the present study were different from those observed in other Asian populations with a higher frequency of T allele than G allele for DNMT3B-579G>T polymorphism. 23,24,33 The dissimilarity between the ethnicity and size of samples might be causes for the differences of allele and genotype distribution shown in the current study from those reported in previous investigations.…”

“…Individuals with TT genotype indicated a higher risk of lung and colorectal cancers compared to those who had other genotypes. 24,25 Also, DNMT3B-579G>T did not show a significant association with Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) in non-Hispanic whites. However, TT genotype of this polymorphism was linked to the increased risk of SCCHN when -579G>T was analyzed in combination with the other polymorphism of DNMT3B (-149C>T; rs2424913).…”

“…An opposite conclusion was found for an association between the DNMT3B ‐579G>T polymorphism and various cancers (Fan et al, 2008a). For example a significant decreased risk for colorectal cancer and lung cancer was observed for carriers of the ‐579 GT genotype (Liu et al, ). The DNMT3B ‐149T allele was shown to be associated with an increased activity (Shen et al, ) and a higher expression of the DNMT3B protein in carriers of the ‐149CT genotype (Fonseca‐Silva et al, ).…”

“…Previous studies have demonstrated that the G allele significantly decreased the susceptibility to lung and colon cancer in a Korean population [29,30] and that the GT genotype was associated with a significantly decreased risk for lung cancer (OR: 0.517; 95% CI: 0.273-0.981) compared to the TT genotype in Northern and Southern Chinese populations [31]. However, it was also reported that there was no association between rs1569686 and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma in a Chinese population [32].…”
