TNF‐αPromoter Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Human Papillomavirus 16–Associated Cervical Cancer

Abstract: We report new associations between several TNF-alpha SNPs and susceptibility to cervical cancer that support the involvement of the TNF- alpha promoter region in development of cervical cancer.

“…Many previous studies have investigated the TNF À238 and À308 SNPs. [16][17][18][21][22][23][24][25] The number of cases genotyped in the current investigation exceeds all previous studies taken together and we could not detect any association for these polymorphisms.…”

“…17,27,28 In this study, three different sets of haplotypes were evaluated using HaploView; one haplotype covering the polymorphisms in LTA and TNF, and one covering each of TAP1 (corresponding to TAP1 alleles) and TAP2 (TAP2 alleles). In the association analysis of haplotypes, all cases from the family material were used regardless of family structure.…”

“…Accordingly, it is rational to speculate that TNF-α -308G>A and -238G>A polymorphisms may have an impact on the development of some types of cancers. In recent years, numerous casecontrol studies have been conducted to investigate the associations of TNF-α -308G>A and -238G>A promoter region polymorphisms with cancer risk, suggesting that these polymorphisms may be associated with cancer susceptibility, such as breast cancer, lung cancer, nasopharyngeal cancer and cervical cancer (Deshpande et al, 2005;Shih et al, 2006;Pooja et al, 2011;Sousa et al, 2011).…”
