E-cadherin (CDH1), a tumor suppressor gene, encodes a transmembrane glycoprotein that helps in maintaining squamous epithelium integrity of the cervix. We aimed to investigate the association between -160C/A genetic polymorphism in CDH1 and the risk of cervical cancer in Bangladeshi females.
The present case-control study included 117 cervical cancer cases and 147 age-matched controls. The genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood and genotyped by using PCR-RFLP analysis.
Genotyping results demonstrated that the occurrences of normal homozygous (-160C/C), heterozygous (-160C/A) and variant homozygous (-160A/A) genotypes were 64.10, 27.35 and 8.55% in cases, and 77.55, 19.73 and 2.72% in controls, respectively. Compared to normal C/C genotype, variant A/A and combined (C/A+A/A) or 'any A' genotypes exhibited 3.80-fold (95% CI=1.150-12.561, P=0.029) and 1.93-fold (95% CI=1.126-3.323, P=0.017) increased risk of cervical cancer development. The -160C allele was found to be positively linked to cervical cancer incidence and raised the risk by 1.81-fold (OR= 1.814, 95% CI=1.152-2.857, p=0.01). Moreover, women carrying -160A/A variant homozygosity along with an early marital history (<18 years) were more susceptible to cervical cancer development (χ2 =6.605, p=0.037).
The study suggests that the (A/A) and combined (C/A +A/A) genotypes are associated with greater risk of cervical cancer in Bangladeshi women.
E-钙黏蛋白(CDH1)是一种肿瘤抑制基因,编码一种跨膜糖蛋白,有助于维持宫颈鳞状上皮的完整性。我们旨在研究 CDH1 基因-160C/A 遗传多态性与孟加拉国女性宫颈癌风险之间的关联。
本病例对照研究包括 117 例宫颈癌病例和 147 例年龄匹配的对照。从外周血中提取基因组 DNA,并通过 PCR-RFLP 分析进行基因分型。
基因分型结果表明,病例组正常纯合子(-160C/C)、杂合子(-160C/A)和变异纯合子(-160A/A)的发生率分别为 64.10%、27.35%和 8.55%,对照组分别为 77.55%、19.73%和 2.72%。与正常 C/C 基因型相比,变异 A/A 基因型以及合并(C/A+A/A)或“任何 A”基因型显示出 3.80 倍(95%CI=1.150-12.561,P=0.029)和 1.93 倍(95%CI=1.126-3.323,P=0.017)的宫颈癌发展风险增加。-160C 等位基因与宫颈癌的发生呈正相关,风险增加 1.81 倍(OR=1.814,95%CI=1.152-2.857,p=0.01)。此外,携带 -160A/A 变异纯合子且早婚史(<18 岁)的女性更容易发生宫颈癌(χ2=6.605,p=0.037)。
该研究表明,(A/A)和合并(C/A+A/A)基因型与孟加拉国女性宫颈癌风险增加相关。
