Abstract:
Objective To study the correlation between MMP-9 rs3918242 C > T polymorphism and cancer risk.Methods PubMed database was utilized to search the relative artiles concerning association between MMP-9 rs3918242 C >T polymorphism and cancer risk (last search updated on April 2011).All the statistical analysis was performed by STATA software.Results 4,124 cancer patients and 4,728 control subjects were included in this meta-analysis.No association was observed in the overall analysis (allelic contrast P=0.378,OR =0.94,95% CI:0.83-1.07).However,in the stratified analysis by cancer type,MMP-9-1562 T allele was found to decrease the lung cancer(P =0.026,OR =0.70,95% CI:0.5 1-0.96) and colorectal cancer(P=0.016,OR =0.80,95% CI:0.66-0.96).Conclusion MMP-9 rs3918242 C/T polymorphism is correlated with colorectal cancer and lung cancer.
