Associations between single-nucleotide polymorphisms and inflammatory bowel disease-associated colorectal cancers in
1Department of Digestive Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital, and College of Clinical Medicine of Henan University of Science and Technology, No. 24 Jinghua Road, Jianxi District, Luoyang, 471003, Henan, China.
Purpose:
To assess the correlation between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-associated colorectal cancer (CRC) in IBD patients.
Methods:
A systematic search of PubMed, EmBase, and Cochrane databases was performed. Five genetic models (allelic, dominant, recessive, heterozygous and homozygous models) were used to analyze the associations, and trial sequential analysis was used to analyze the robustness of the results.
Results:
We collected and analyzed the results of seven trials including a total of 2287 patients in our meta-analysis. A total of 8 SNPs were tested in IBD patients. For rs1800629 of TNF-α, the allelic model showed that polymorphism at this locus significantly increased the risk of IBD-associated CRC in IBD patients (OR 4.45, 95% CI 3.18-6.21, P < 0.001). The results also showed a significant association between rs1800629 and an IBD-associated CRC population (heterozygous model: OR 4.335, 95% CI 2.329-8.069, P < 0.001; homozygous model: OR 11.5, 95% CI 2.498-52.592, P = 0.002; dominant model: OR 4.986, 95% CI 2.754-9.026, P < 0.001; recessive model: OR 7.208, 95% CI 1.588-32.72, P = 0.01). Other studies have found that mutation of rs1143627 of IL1B (allelic model: OR 2.97; 95% CI 1.74-5.05, P < 0.001) and rs1050152 of OCTN1 (allelic model: OR 1.637, 95% CI 1.078-2.485, P = 0.021) increased the proportion of IBD-associated CRC in the population. Moreover, there were significant associations between IBD-associated CRC and ITLN rs2274910, gene desert rs1551398 and rs4871611, FCGR2A rs1801274, and S100-Z rs7712957 in the allelic model.
Conclusion:
Associations between SNPs and the proportion of IBD-associated CRC in IBD patients were examined, and further investigation of additional SNPs and their association with the risk of morbidity is needed.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease I: Ulcerative Colitis
Inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD, encompasses a group of disorders characterized by chronic inflammation or ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract.
Risk Factors
The exact cause of IBD remains unclear, although it is believed to be due to a mix of genetic, environmental, microbial, and immune factors. Genetic factors are significant in determining susceptibility to IBD, with family history being a critical risk factor. Individuals with a first-degree relative who has IBD are at...
Inflammatory Bowel Disease II: Crohn's Disease
Inflammatory bowel disease, commonly known as IBD, refers to a collection of disorders that lead to persistent inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. The two types of IBD are ulcerative colitis, which impacts the colon, and Crohn's disease, which can involve any part of the gastrointestinal segment.
Crohn's disease
Crohn's disease is a chronic, systemic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that predominantly affects the gastrointestinal tract. It is marked by...

Diagnostic studies
A colonoscopy is the definitive screening test, distinguishing ulcerative colitis from other colon diseases with similar symptoms. During a colonoscopy test, inflamed mucosa with exudate ulcerations can be observed, and biopsies are taken to determine the histologic characteristics of the...
