Abstract:
The association between polymorphisms in the nucleoside diphosphate kinase 1 (NME1) gene and overall risk of cancer remains to be elucidated. Here, we performed a meta-analysis of the association between rs16949649, rs2302254, and rs34214448 polymorphisms in the NME1 gene and cancer risk. PubMed, Web of Science, and CNKI databases (as of June 6, 2017) were searched. Eight studies, encompassing 1644 cases and 2038 controls, were selected. The results revealed no significant relationship between NME1 polymorphisms and overall cancer susceptibility. Interestingly, the rs16949649 polymorphism was associated with increased susceptibility to gynecological cancer (heterozygous model: odds ratio [OR] = 1.74, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.06-2.86, P = 0.029). The rs2302254 polymorphism was linked to decreased susceptibility to gastric cancer in the other groups (recessive model: OR = 0.53, 95% CI = 0.28-0.98, P = 0.045). The rs34214448 polymorphism correlated significantly with increased susceptibility to non-small cell lung cancer according to all genetic models (P < 0.05) and was linked to decreased risk in cervical cancer (recessive model: OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.27-0.94, P = 0.031). Thus, our meta-analysis found rs16949649 associated with increased susceptibility to gynecological cancer and rs2302254 was linked to reduced gastric cancer risk; additional, larger studies are required to confirm these findings.
