Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the potential role of the separately p73 gene polymorphism on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) susceptibility.Methods A hospital-based case-control study was conducted in 100 cases HCC patients and 100 cases age,sex-matched cancer-free controls in the same region.The matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry and DNA sequencing methods were used to analyze polymorphisms of p73 genetic polymorphisms (G4C14-A4T14).Using χ2 test to exam the differences of genotype between the HCC group and control group,logistic regression was used to analysis odds ratio(Oddsratios,OR) and 95%CI(Confidence Intervals,CI),adjusted for age and sex,analysis the association between SNPs of P73 polymorphisms and HCC.All the results were analyzed by SPSS 18.0.Results (1)The differences of age(χ2=0.185,P=0.667),gender(χ2=0.026,P=0.873),drinking status(χ2=0.427,P=0.514),and family history (χ2=0.058,P=0.809)of cancer composition between HCC group and control group were not statistically significant.(2)There were CC,CT and TT three genotypes in p73 rs1801173 C/T.The frequencies of CC,CT and TT genotypes of P73 C/T in controls and HCC cases were 65.0%,28.2%,6.8 % and 62.2%,31.1%,6.7%,respectively,and there was no significant difference between the two groups(χ2=0.326,P=0.568).(3)When stratifying by age,gender,smoking status,alcohol consumption,HBV carrier status and family history of cancer we found that the variant genotypes of GC/AT + AT/AT in P73 was associated with a significantly increased risk of HCC among HbsAg-positive individuals(χ2=3.916,P=0.048) and female(χ2=6.545,P=0.01),and there were no significant correlation with age,smoking,alcohol consumption,family history of cancer.Conclusion (1)p73 G4C14-to-A4T14 dinucleotide polymorphism may play a role in the development of chronic HBV-infected HCC in the Chinese population.(2)p73 G4C14-to-A4T14 dinucleotide polymorphism may play a role in the development of chronic HCC in female of Chinese population.
