“…The role of Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in altering expressions or functions of inflammation genes was shown; thus, SNPs could be associated with an altered risk of multiple cancers (Machado et al, 2003;Zhang and Wang, 2013). Today, the important role of pro-inflammatory cytokines during tumor development is increasingly gaining interest.…”

“…A total of 15 publications regarding IL-16 gene polymorphisms and cancer risk were identified. Nine publications were excluded after reading the full article in detail, because they were editorial comment, letter, case report, other polymorphism of IL-16, without sufficient data, repeated literatures and violated HWE (Thomas et al, 2008;Obara et al, 2010;Azimzadeh et al, 2012;Batai et al, 2012;Lin et al, 2012;Deng et al, 2012;Du, et al, 2012;Hughes et al, 2013;Zhang et al, 2013). The study of Gao et al (2009b) presented separate OR by colorectal and gastric two cancer types and each of them was considered as a separate study.…”

“…Afifi et al (2004) carried out a case-control study in An Egyptian population, finding that the IL-16 may be considered as a marker of severity of airway inflammation. Wu et al (2011) conducted a study of 157 patients with CAD and 202 healthy controls, and reported that IL-16 genetic variation may be used as a genetic marker for CAD (Gao et al, 2009a,b;Obara, 2010;Li et al, 2011;Azimzadeh et al, 2011;Zhang and Wang, 2013;Luo et al, 2014;Qin et al, 2014). The abovementioned studies reveal that IL-16 gene polymorphisms are associated with cancer development.…”
