Association of PDCD6 polymorphisms with the risk of cancer: Evidence from a meta-analysis
Oncotarget. 2018; 9: 24857-24868
Abstract
This study was designed to evaluate the relationship between Programmed cell death protein 6 (PDCD6) polymorphisms and cancer susceptibility. The online databases were searched for relevant case-control studies published up to November 2017. Review Manage (RevMan) 5.3 was used to conduct the statistical analysis. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence interval (CI) was employed to calculate the strength of association. Overall, our results indicate that PDCD6 rs3756712 T>G polymorphism was significantly associated with decreased risk of cancer under codominant (OR = 0.82, 95%CI = 0.70–0.96, p = 0.01, TG vs TT; OR = 0.53, 95%CI = 0.39-0.72, p < 0.0001, GG vs TT), dominant (OR = 0.76, 95%CI = 0.66-0.89, p = 0.0004, TG+GG vs TT), recessive (OR = 0.57, 95%CI = 0.43-0.78, p = 0.0003, GG vs TT+TG), and allele (OR = 0.76, 95%CI = 0.67–0.86, p < 0.00001, G vs T) genetic model. The finding did not support an association between rs4957014 T>G polymorphism of PDCD6, and different cancers risk.
