| Abstract | Single nucleotide polymorphisms in vascular endothelial growth factor gene VEGF, 1498C/T and 936 C/T are associated with colorectal cancer. We sought to determine whether such genetic variability in VEGF contributes to susceptibility of colorectal adenoma (CRA), a presumably precancerous state of colorectal cancer. In this research, two aforementioned polymorphisms were investigated for CRA susceptibility in a Chinese case–control study. The epidemiological risk factors were collected through questionnaire. The plasma VEGF levels were measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The Taqman-Probe assay was used to determine genotypes in 224 CRA patients and 200 CRA-free controls. The clinicopathological data of each sample were collected for further correlation analysis. According to data analysis males, cigarette smokers, patients who carry metabolic syndrome or familial antecedent of adenomas were significantly associated with CRA risk. Plasma VEGF levels of CRA patients were higher than those of controls (P = 0.003). This difference is independent of genotypes. The carriers with 936CT and CT+TT had higher risk of CRA in comparison with controls (CT vs. CC, OR 2.00, 95% CI 1.23–3.25, P = 0.006; CT+TT vs. CC, OR 2.04, 95% CI 1.28–3.26, P = 0.003). 936-T allele was associated with increased risk of CRA (OR 1.91, 95% CI 1.25–2.91, P = 0.003). Both CRA and control show no difference in the genotype of 1498C/T and the allele frequency of C−/T−. CRA patients with haplotype 1498T+936T presented significantly higher risk than those with wild-type 1498T+936C. Moreover, patients carrying 936CT+TT and 936-T allele demonstrated a tendency for villous adenoma. CRA patients have elevated plasma VEGF levels. The VEGF 936C/T polymorphism and 1498T+936T haplotype were found to be associated with increased CRA susceptibility. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
