We aimed to investigate a possible association of the MCP-1 and CCR2 polymorphisms with the risk of developing oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
MCP-1 A2518G and CCR2 V64I gene polymorphisms were performed by polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism, in 129 patients with OSCC and 140 healthy control subjects.
Individuals who had G allele and GG genotype of MCP-1, and 64I allele and wt/64I genotype of CCR2 had increased risk for OSCC (P<0.05.) In contrast, individuals with CCR2 wt/wt genotype seem to be protected from OSCC (P < 0.01). Haplotype analysis revealed that MCP-1G: CCR2 64I haplotype frequencies were significantly higher in patients than those of controls (P = 0.001).
We can suggest that the G allele of MCP-1 and 64I allele of CCR2 may be risk factors for OSCC.
本研究旨在探讨趋化因子(单核细胞趋化蛋白-1,MCP-1)和趋化因子受体 2(CCR2)的单核苷酸多态性(SNP)与口腔鳞状细胞癌(OSCC)发病风险之间的可能关联。
采用聚合酶链反应和限制性片段长度多态性方法,对 129 例 OSCC 患者和 140 例健康对照者的 MCP-1 A2518G 和 CCR2 V64I 基因多态性进行检测。
MCP-1 的 G 等位基因和 GG 基因型,以及 CCR2 的 64I 等位基因和 wt/64I 基因型的个体,患 OSCC 的风险增加(P<0.05)。相反,CCR2 的 wt/wt 基因型的个体似乎对 OSCC 有保护作用(P<0.01)。单体型分析显示,与对照组相比,MCP-1G:CCR2 64I 单体型频率在患者中显著升高(P=0.001)。
我们可以推测,MCP-1 的 G 等位基因和 CCR2 的 64I 等位基因可能是 OSCC 的危险因素。
