Abstract: Objective To investigate the relationship of polymorphisms at codons 333 and 637 of TAP-1 allele gene to recurrent condyloma acuminatum (CA) in a Chinese population. Methods Amplificatory refraction mutation system-PCR (ARMS-PCR) was performed to detect TAP1 polymorphic residues at codon 333 in 88 patients with recurrent CA and 81 age- and sampling date-matched controls and at codon 637 in 60 patients with recurrent CA and 60 age- and sampling date-matched controls. Results The frequencies of AA,GG and AG genotypes at codon 333 of TAP-1 gene were 86.36%, 0, 13.64%, respectively, in patients with recurrent CA, 79.01%, 0 and 20.99%, respectively, in the controls, and no significant difference was observed between the two groups (χ2 = 1.604, P ＞ 0.05). However, a significant difference was observed in the frequencies of AA, GG and AG genotypes at codon 637 of TAP-1 gene between the patients and controls (3.33% vs 10.0%, 95.00% vs 60.00%, 1.67% vs 30.00%, χ2 = 21.551, P ＜ 0.01 ). Conclusions The recurrence of CA may be associated with the polymorphism at codon 637, but not with that at codon 333, of TAP-1 gene.
