Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between the combination of smoking with CYP2E1-RsaⅠ and GSTT1 genes polymorphisms and pancreatic cancer. Methods The genetic polymorphisms of CYP2E1-RsaⅠ and GSTT1 were analyzed by polymorphism-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique in peripheral blood leukocytes of 150 pancreatic cancer cases and 150 non-cancer controls. Results The frequency of CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) and GSTT1(-) was 38.7% and 69.3% in pancreatic cancer cases and 20.7% and 44.7% in healthy controls, respectively. Statistical tests showed significant differences in the frequencies between the two groups (χ~2=15.75, P<0.01; χ~2=18.62, P<0.01). The risk of pancreatic cancer patients with CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) was significantly higher than that of controls (OR=3.19, 95% CI=2.53-4.26). The individuals who carried with GSTT1(-) had a higher risk of pancreatic cancer (OR=2.85, 95% CI=1.92-4.64). Combined analysis of the polymorphisms showed that the percentage of CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1)/GSTT1(-) in pancreatic cancer and control groups was 30.7% and 6.7%, respectively (χ~2= 42.39, P<0.01). People who carried with CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1)/GSTT1(-) had a higher risk of pancreatic cancer (OR=16.63, 95% CI=8.94-22.01). The smoking ratewas significantly higher in the case group than in the control group (OR=2.74, 95% CI=1.32-4.58, P<0.01), and statistical analysis suggested an interaction between smoking and CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) or GSTT1(-) genotypes polymorphisms which increased the risk of pancreatic cancer (OR=8.84, 95% CI=5. 51-11.62; OR=20.40, 95% CI=4.98-29.53). Conclusion CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) and GSTT1(-) are the risk factors in pancreatic cancer. Smoking is also related to the susceptibility to pancreatic cancer. There may be a synergetic interaction among CYP2E1-RsaⅠ(c1/c1) and GSTT1(-) and smoking on the elevated susceptibility of pancreatic cancer.
