“…TNF‐α is a powerful pro‐inflammatory factor involved in several biological processes such as macrophage activation, recruitment of inflammatory cells and amplification of pro‐inflammatory cytokines . Polymorphisms in the promoter of TNF may increase its transcription level and thus cytokine production . Many studies have reported the associations of −238 G/A and/or −308 G/A polymorphisms in TNF with susceptibility to HCC, but the results are conflicting .…”

“…26 Polymorphisms in the promoter of TNF may increase its transcription level and thus cytokine production. 27 Many studies have reported the associations of −238 G/A and/or −308 G/A polymorphisms in TNF with susceptibility to HCC, but the results are conflicting. [28][29][30] Our findings indicated that TNF −238 GG genotype was associated with increased risk of HCC.…”

“…Studying both pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokine genes is essential for PCA [21]. TNF-α, as a main mediator of inflammation, has a vital role in PCA development [10]. By considering the capacity of TNF-α promoter SNPs (rs1800629 and rs361525), and the influence of their gene expression [13,14], these two SNPs have been identified as potential functional variants and as novel biomarkers for the early detection for PCA susceptibility.…”

“…The TNF-α gene, also termed DIF/TNFSF2/TNLG1F, is located in the class III region of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC III) and mapped to chromosome 6p21.33 with 4 exons [8,9]. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in this gene have been widely reported and have been associated with the risk of several cancers, such as PCA, breast cancer, and lung cancer [10][11][12]. Rs1800629 is one of the most common SNPs, with a G to A transition at the − 308 nucleotide in the promoter of the transcription initiation site, which may affect the serum expression of TNF-α [13].…”

“…Further, analyzing these patients in a nested case-control study from a large cohort reduces selection bias inherent in institution-based sampling. With time, the utilization of similar trial cohorts and lung cancer screening studies to evaluate genetic variation may increase; however, as recognized by Eaton et al, 7 replication in appropriately similar data sets is currently an issue. Stricter eligibility criteria for cases and controls may help define more biologically homogenous groups for comparison and patients with lung cancer with similar somatic profiles, such that it may offset smaller sample sizes through decreased variability in risk from nongermline factors.…”
