Abstract

The present study was conducted to investigate the association between gastric cardiac adenocarcinoma (GCA) and four functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including interleukin 18 () rs360719 A>G, IL18 receptor 1 rs13015714 G>T, IL18 receptor accessory protein rs917997 C>T and interleukin 28B rs8099917 T>G variants. A hospital-based case-control study was performed to evaluate the genetic effects of these SNPs. A total of 243 GCA cases and 476 controls were enrolled in this study. A custom-by-design 48-Plex SNPscan™ kit was used to determine the genotypes. When the rs360719 AA homozygote genotype was used as the reference group, the AG genotype was not associated with the risk for GCA; the GG genotype was also not associated with the risk for GCA. In the dominant model, the rs360719 AG/GG variants were not associated with the risk for GCA, compared with the rs360719 AA genotype. In the recessive model, when the rs13015714 AA/AG genotypes were used as the reference group, the GG homozygote genotype was not associated with risk for GCA. No association was observed between rs13015714 G>T, rs917997 C>T and rs8099917 T>G polymorphisms and the risk for GCA. These results demonstrated that the functional polymorphisms rs360719 A>G, rs13015714 G>T, rs917997 C>T and rs8099917 T>G do not contribute to GCA susceptibility. However, as the statistical power of our study was limited, large well-designed studies and further functional investigations are required to confirm our findings.
