Wilms tumor is a prevalent pediatric tumor influenced by various genetic factors. mA modification is a common nucleotide modification that plays a role in a variety of cancers. As a "reader", YTHDF3 is essential for recognizing mA modifications. However, the association between gene polymorphisms and Wilms tumor susceptibility has not been previously reported. A five-center case‒control study including 414 patients and 1199 controls was conducted to explore the relationship between gene polymorphisms and Wilms tumor susceptibility. The samples were genotyped via TaqMan real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were utilized as indicators to assess their correlation. The rs2241753 AA genotype was significantly associated with an increased risk of Wilms tumor in females (adjusted OR=1.74, 95% CI=1.05-2.88, =0.033). The risk of Wilms tumor was also notably elevated in female children with 1-3 risk genotypes (adjusted OR=1.47, 95% CI=1.04-2.07, =0.028). The rs2241753 AA genotype and the presence of 1-3 risk genotypes were significantly associated with increased Wilms tumor risk in female children.
肾母细胞瘤是一种受多种遗传因素影响的常见儿科肿瘤。N⁶-甲基腺嘌呤(mA)修饰是一种常见的核苷酸修饰,在多种癌症中发挥作用。作为一种“读取器”,YTHDF3对于识别mA修饰至关重要。然而,此前尚未有基因多态性与肾母细胞瘤易感性之间关联的报道。开展了一项包含414例患者和1199例对照的五中心病例对照研究,以探索基因多态性与肾母细胞瘤易感性之间的关系。通过TaqMan实时定量聚合酶链反应对样本进行基因分型。比值比(OR)和95%置信区间(CI)用作评估它们相关性的指标。rs2241753的AA基因型与女性肾母细胞瘤风险增加显著相关(调整后OR = 1.74,95% CI = 1.05 - 2.88,P = 0.033)。具有1 - 3种风险基因型的女童患肾母细胞瘤的风险也显著升高(调整后OR = 1.47,95% CI = 1.04 - 2.07,P = 0.028)。rs2241753的AA基因型和1 - 3种风险基因型的存在与女童肾母细胞瘤风险增加显著相关。
