| Abstract | The present study was conducted to investigate the association between gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma (GCA) and four functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including interleukin 18 (IL18) rs360719 A>G, IL18 receptor 1 (IL18R1) rs13015714 G>T, IL18 receptor accessory protein (IL18RAP) rs917997 C>T and interleukin 28B (IL28B) rs8099917 T>G variants. A hospital-based case-control study was performed to evaluate the genetic effects of these SNPs. A total of 243 GCA cases and 476 controls were enrolled in this study. A custom-by-design 48-Plex SNPscan™ kit was used to determine the genotypes. When the IL18 rs360719 AA homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, the AG genotype was not associated with the risk for GCA; the GG genotype was also not associated with the risk for GCA. In the dominant model, the IL18 rs360719 AG/GG variants were not associated with the risk for GCA, compared with the IL18 rs360719 AA genotype. In the recessive model, when the IL18R1 rs13015714 AA/AG genotypes were used as the reference group, the GG homozygote genotype was not associated with risk for GCA. No association was observed between IL18R1 rs13015714 G>T, IL18RAP rs917997 C>T and IL28B rs8099917 T>G polymorphisms and the risk for GCA. These results demonstrated that the functional polymorphisms IL18 rs360719 A>G, IL18R1 rs13015714 G>T, IL18RAP rs917997 C>T and IL28B rs8099917 T>G do not contribute to GCA susceptibility. However, as the statistical power of our study was limited, large well-designed studies and further functional investigations are required to confirm our findings. |
