E-cadherin (CDH1) gene promoter polymorphism and the risk of colorectal cancer

Abstract: Data indicated that certain CDH1 gene promoter -160 C > A and -347 G > GA variants might affect the susceptibility of CRC. Recommendations for further studies include pooling of individual data to facilitate evaluation of multigenic effects and detailed analysis of effect modification by environmental and lifestyle factors.

“…It has been shown that the −160A allele decreases the transcription efficiency of the CDH1 gene [15, 16]. Meta-analyses suggest that rs16260 may be associated with the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) in Western populations and sporadic gastric carcinoma among Caucasians, but not among Asians [11, 17]. Interestingly, in the study of Zhan et al [18], genotypes of the CDH1 rs16260 variant contributed to the risk of diffuse gastric cancer in ethnic Han Chinese.…”

“…These results indicated that the -160 AA genotype increased breast cancer risk, which was consistent with results on other cancer types, such as prostate, urothelial, and bladder cancers [ 27 29 ]. However, the results were inconsistent with results on colorectal cancer (CRC) [ 12 , 30 ], which showed that CDH1 -160C/A polymorphisms could reduce CRC risk. These results revealed that the CDH1 -160C/A polymorphism might have different effects on distinct cancers, and this discrepancy may result from different carcinogenesis mechanisms, such as genetic background, environment exposure, dietary habit, race, or family history.…”

“…6 Recently, three previous meta-analyses evaluated the association between the CDH1 polymorphism and the risk of CRC based on nine, eight and eight studies, respectively. [36][37][38] Howerer, the combined results were also inconclusive. Wang et al 36 reported a protective effect of the CDH1-160 CA + AA polymorphisms for CRC in population-based control in stratified analysis, whereas a meta-analysis conducted by Geng et al 37 found that the CDH1-C160A polymorphism provides a possible protection against CRC, which is especially evident in Caucasian and hospital populations.…”
