abstract = {Objective: A number of studies have reported the association of “XPA”, “XPC”, “XPD/ERCC2” gene polymorphisms with lung cancer risk. However, the results were conflict. To clarify the impact of polymorphisms of “XPA”, “XPC”, “XPD/ERCC2”, on lung cancer risk, a meta-analysis was performed in this study.
Methods: The electronic databases PubMed and Embase were retrieved for studies included in this meta-analysis by “XPA”, “XPC”, “XPD/ERCC2”, “lung”, “cancer/neoplasm/tumor/carcinoma”, “polymorphism” (An upper date limit of October, 31, 2009). A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship among XPA, XPC and XPD polymorphism and lung cancer risks.
Results: A total of 31 publications retrieved from Pubmed and Embase included in this study. XPC A939C CC genotype increased lung cancer risk in total population (recessive genetic model: OR=1.23, 95% CI:1.05-1.44; homozygote comparison: OR=1.21,95%CI:1.02-1.43and CC vs. CA contrast: OR=1.25,95%CI:1.06-1.48), except in Asians. XPD A751C, 751C allele and CC genotype also increased lung cancer risk in total population and in Caucasians (recessive genetic model: Total population: OR=1.20, 95%CI:1.07-1.35). No significant correlation was found between XPD A751C and lung cancer risk in Asians and African Americans. XPD G312A AA genotype increased lung cancer risk in total population, in Asians and Caucasians(recessive genetic model: Total population: OR=1.20, 95%CI: 1.06-1.36). No significant association was found between XPA G23A, XPC C499T, XPD C156A and lung cancer risk.
Conclusion: Our results suggest that the polymorphisms in XPC and XPD involve in lung cancer risks. XPA polymorphisms is less related to lung cancer risk.},
