Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the gene encoding LOXL1 are risk factors for exfoliation syndrome and exfoliation glaucoma. This meta-analysis comprehensively investigated the association between LOXL1 gene polymorphisms (rs1048661, rs3825942, and rs2165241) and the risk of exfoliation syndrome/exfoliation glaucoma (XFS)/(XFG).
All eligible case-control studies, published before August 17, 2020, were searched on Medline (Ovid), PubMed, CNKI, EMBASE, and Wanfang databases.
In total, 5022 cases and 8962 controls were included in this meta-analysis. Significant associations between LOXL1 gene polymorphisms and XFS/XFG risk was observed in the disease types-based subgroups. In addition, in the subgroup analysis of ethnicity, positive associations between LOXL1 gene polymorphisms (rs1048661, rs3825942, and rs2165241) and XFS/XFG risk were found in Caucasians. Furthermore, rs1048661 and rs3825942 polymorphisms were related to XFS/ XFG risk in Asians; however, no significant association was observed between the LOXL1 gene rs2165241 polymorphism and XFS/XFG risk in Asians. In addition, rs1048661 and rs3825942 correlated with XFS/XFG susceptibility in Africans.
Our results implicate LOXL1 gene polymorphisms as XFS/XFG risk factors, especially in Caucasians.
编码 LOXL1 基因的单核苷酸多态性(SNPs)是剥脱综合征和剥脱性青光眼的危险因素。本荟萃分析全面研究了 LOXL1 基因多态性(rs1048661、rs3825942 和 rs2165241)与剥脱综合征/剥脱性青光眼(XFS/XFG)风险之间的关系。
检索 Medline(Ovid)、PubMed、CNKI、EMBASE 和万方数据库,获取截至 2020 年 8 月 17 日前发表的所有合格病例对照研究。
共有 5022 例病例和 8962 例对照纳入本荟萃分析。在基于疾病类型的亚组中,观察到 LOXL1 基因多态性与 XFS/XFG 风险之间存在显著关联。此外,在种族亚组分析中,在白种人中发现 LOXL1 基因多态性(rs1048661、rs3825942 和 rs2165241)与 XFS/XFG 风险之间存在阳性关联。此外,rs1048661 和 rs3825942 多态性与亚洲人群的 XFS/XFG 风险相关;然而,在亚洲人群中,未观察到 LOXL1 基因 rs2165241 多态性与 XFS/XFG 风险之间存在显著关联。此外,rs1048661 和 rs3825942 与非洲人群的 XFS/XFG 易感性相关。
我们的研究结果提示 LOXL1 基因多态性是 XFS/XFG 的危险因素,尤其是在白种人群中。
