“…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.…”

“…For -238, three of five studies show a protective effect of the A allele 16,21,23 and two studies report no association, 17,24 whereas for -308, six of eight studies showed no association, 16,17,[21][22][23]25 and one study reports an association of the A allele with risk 18 and another study associates the G allele with risk. 24 The TNFa microsatellite, located in the TNF region of MHC class III, showed no association to disease, but the TNFa-11 allele was associated with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia and invasive cervical cancer in Swedish carriers of DQB1*0602. 19,20 In an analysis of 11 SNPs in the TNF, two SNPs in the promoter region showed an association in HPV16-infected Hispanic cervical cancer patients, and one SNP showed an association in non-Hispanic whites.…”

“…Interestingly, these cytokines have also been described in relation to their similar modulation by cigarette smoke substituents, along with a noteworthy inhibition of tumor necrosis factor-a in some studies (53,54). Furthermore, association studies of the tumor necrosis factor-a promoter region have implicated the involvement of tumor necrosis factor-a in cervical intraepithelial neoplasia development (55,56). This has been corroborated by the observation that tumor necrosis factor-a and IFN-g act synergistically to destroy ME-180 cervical cancer cells via apoptosis or necrosis (57).…”

“…Also, it has been shown that TNF stimulates the transcription of the EGFR, which stimulates cell proliferation and tumorgenesis. Many studies show that in women with CIN, the level of TNF in serum is significantly higher than in healthy women, as well as that GA genotype in -308 locus of TNF gene as compared to GG and AA genotypes, has a higher risk for development of cervical tumor in HR HPV positive women [15,16].…”
