We detected a significant high correlation between predisposition for CRC and presence of the Ile/Ile genotype of the GSTP1 (IIe105Val) gene polymorphism, but we did not find a significant relationship between predisposition for CRC and GSTT1 and M1 deletion polymorphisms.
Combined analysis of data obtained from individuals of either Kazakh or Russian decent showed a significant association with increased CRC risk in the following genotypes: DCC (32008376G/G and G/A versus A/A; OR = 3.45, 95 % confidence interval (95 %CI) = 1.75-6.81, χ (2) = 14.07, p < 0.0002), MLH1 (-93G/G versus G/A and A/A; OR = 1.45, 95 %CI = 1.02-2.07, χ (2) = 4.21, p < 0.04), TP53 (Pro72Pro; OR = 3.80, 95 %CI = 2.46-5.88, χ (2) = 61.27, p < 0.0001), combination GSTT1 deletions with heterozygotes versus normal homozygotes (OR = 1.43, 95 %CI = 1.00-2.04, χ (2) = 3.90, p < 0.05), and GSTM1 deletions (OR = 1.83, 95 %CI = 1.28-2.63, χ (2) = 11.04, p < .001).
Our results showed that individuals with GSTT1 and GSTM1 null genotypes exhibited a higher risk of CRC (GSTT1, OR,1.66; 95% CI, 1.20-2.31, P=0.003; GSTM1, OR,1.57; 95% CI,1.13-2.18, P=0.007), while no association was observed for GSTP1 (P heterozygous=0.790 or P variant=0.261).
This meta-analysis suggests that the null genotypes of GSTM1 and GSTT1 and the dual null genotype of GSTM1/GSTT1 were all not risk factors in CRC in Chinese population.
Our results suggest that co-exist of GSTM1 null, GSTT1 null and the variant GSTP1 105Val or 114Val allele may be predisposing risk factors for colorectal cancer in Indian population.
Of the gene-gene interactions studied, the composite genotype of CYP1A1*2A or CYP1A1*2C and GSTT1 polymorphisms was associated with a decreased risk of colorectal cancer, showing a nearly statistically significant (Pinteraction = 0.06) or significant interaction (Pinteraction = 0.02).
Association between exposure-relevant polymorphisms in CYP1B1, EPHX1, NQO1, GSTM1, GSTP1 and GSTT1 and risk of colorectal cancer in a Czech population.
The three-way interaction analysis revealed that interactions between GSTM1 genotype and cigarette smoking and between GSTT1 genotype and alcohol drinking further modified the oxidative stress contribution for colorectal cancer (p for interaction were 0.067 and 0.054, respectively).
The principal outcome measure was the odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) for the risk of colorectal cancer associated with GSTT1 null genotype.
Genetic variation in genes for the xenobiotic-metabolizing enzymes CYP1A1, EPHX1, GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 and susceptibility to colorectal cancer in Lynch syndrome.
We found that men featuring the CYP1A1*2C G/G genotype, the GSTT1 null genotype and XPD 751 with the Gln allele were associated with an elevated risk of colorectal cancer than were men who did not exhibit such genetic features.
Colorectal cancer: the risk is greater for carriers of the GSTM1 null genotype (odds ratio [OR] = 1.91, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.25-2.91), for carriers of the GSTT1 null genotype (OR = 3.62, 95% CI = 2.34-5.62), and for simultaneous carriers of both GSTM1 and GSTT1 null genotypes (OR = 4.98, 95% CI = 2.77-9.00).
