The rs1050450 C > T polymorphism of GPX1 is associated with the risk of bladder but not prostate cancer: evidence from a meta-analysis

Abstract: Glutathione peroxidase (GPX) is an endogenous antioxidant enzyme counteracting oxidative stress. Accumulating evidence has demonstrated that the GPX1 rs1050450 C > T polymorphism may modulate cancer risk, but the association of GPX1 rs1050450 polymorphism with bladder cancer (BC) and prostate cancer (PCa) is still inconclusive. This meta-analysis was designed to determine the exact association of GPX1 rs1050450 C > T polymorphism with the risk of bladder cancer and prostate cancer. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% co… Show more

“…GPX1 is located on chromosome position 3p21 and contains a genetic polymorphism (rs1050450) that results in either a proline (Pro) or leucine (Leu) at codon 198, described to be a risk factor for the development of various cancers, including lung cancer (Lee et al., ), prostate cancer, (Liwei, Wei, & Ruifa, ; Parlaktas, Atilgan, Gencten, Benli, & Ozyurt, ) and bladder cancer (Men, Zhang, Yang, & Shen, ; Paz‐y‐Mino et al., ).…”

“…Habyarimana reported that there was no difference between allele frequencies of Pro and Leu in breast cancer cases and controls, but they detected an overall association of GPX1 Pro198Leu (rs1050450) with grade of cancer . The results of a meta‐analysis performed by Men et al showed the significant correlation of the rs1050450 polymorphism with an increased risk of bladder cancer, while there was no significant association for prostate cancer . In addition, the meta‐analysis by Chen et al indicated the correlation of the individuals with variant Leu allele of rs1050450 with an increased cancer risk in dominant genetic model; however, Hong et al's meta‐analysis results showed no association of GPX1 gene rs1050450 polymorphism with cancer risk in any of dominant and recessive models .…”

“…This polymorphism has not been represented on previous GWAS products, and was only recently genotyped in the HapMap or in the 1000 Genomes project, so it is possible that this putative association was not detectable in prior GWAS, and inconsistent results were found for this association in candidate analyses. Although some studies observed a trend towards an inverse association between rs1050450 and prostate cancer for carriers of alternative allele of rs1050450 [28], others found an absence of association [33, 29, 34] or in an increase in risk for carriers of alternative alleles [32]. Our study is the first that shows an inverse association with a p < 0.05, but also the first having statistical power to detect a weak association, and the results of the meta-analysis reinforced our observations.…”
