0.400 AlteredExpression disease BEFREE We found, for the first time, that the expression of COMT and IL6 genes were inversely correlated with the expression of DRD1 and DRD2 genes through the extent of differentiation of PCa from BPH condition. 31288722 2019
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE According to a multivariate analysis, CYP1B1 (rs1800440), COMT (rs16982844), and SULT2B1 (rs12460535, rs2665582, rs10426628) were significantly associated with prostate cancer progression and hormone levels. 24682418 2014

Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE There is no association between the COMT Val158Met polymorphism and PCa. 23116175 2013
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE This meta-analysis suggests that COMT Val158Met polymorphism might not be a risk factor for PCa risk. 23257985 2013
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Collectively, the results of the present study suggest that significant associations of COMT Val158Met polymorphisms with prostate cancer were observed (for additive model: OR = 1.068, 95 % CI = 1.002-1.138, P (heterogeneity) = 0.363, P = 0.043; for dominant model: OR = 1.266, 95 % CI = 1.057-1.517, P (heterogeneity) = 0.000, P = 0.011; for recessive model: OR = 1.050, 95 % CI = 0.961-1.146, P (heterogeneity) = 0.558, P = 0.279; and Val allele versus Met allele OR = 0.932, 95 % CI = 0.894-0.971, P (heterogeneity) = 0.272, P = 0.001). 23096092 2013
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Our results suggested that the Val158Met polymorphism of COMT was not associated with the risk of sporadic or latent prostate cancer in Japanese men. 17760745 2007
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 Biomarker disease CTD_human Identification of genes potentially involved in the acquisition of androgen-independent and metastatic tumor growth in an autochthonous genetically engineered mouse prostate cancer model. 17013881 2007
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A total of 11 htSNPs (including COMT Val(158)Met) were selected based on the resequencing and dense genotyping approach of the Breast and Prostate Cancer Cohort Consortium. htSNPs were genotyped in a population-based, case-control study in Poland (1,995 cases and 2,296 controls). 17018638 2006
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE A variant form of this enzyme has been shown to reduce its activity by up to 4-fold; thus, we hypothesize that single nucleotide polymorphisms of the COMT gene can be a risk factor for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and prostate cancer. 16492910 2006
CUI: C0376358
Disease: Malignant neoplasm of prostate
Malignant neoplasm of prostate
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Including the high-activity COMT 158Val allele to this combination also lowered aggressive prostate cancer risk but the effect was not as strong (OR=0.20; 95% CI=0.05-0.88). 16569655 2006
