Abstract
Abstract
Background
WNT1-inducible signaling pathway protein 1 (WISP1) is a member of the CCN protein family and a downstream target of β-catenin. Aberrant WISP1 expression may be involved in carcinogenesis. To date, no studies have investigated the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of WISP1 and gastric cancer. Therefore, we conducted this study to explore their relationship.
Methods
Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay was used to analyze three SNPs of WISP1 in 204 gastric cancer patients and 227 controls.
Results
Overall, we could not identify a significant association between WISP1 SNPs and gastric cancer risk. However, the subgroup analysis demonstrated that the presence of the rs7843546 T allele was associated with a significantly decreased risk of gastric cancer in those of Han Chinese ethnicity (CT vs. CC: OR = 0.33, 95%CI 0.14–0.78; TT vs. CC: OR = 0.29, 95%CI 0.11–0.76; CT + TT vs. CC: OR = 0.32, 95%CI 0.14–0.74). In addition, patients with the rs7843546 TT genotype display a 0.34-fold lower risk of developing stage I/II gastric cancer than those with the CC genotype Furthermore, individuals ≥ 50 years old who carried the rs10956697 AC genotype had a significantly decreased risk of gastric cancer (OR = 0.58, 95%CI 0.35–0.98). Smokers with the rs10956697 AC and AC + AA genotypes exhibited a 0.28-fold lower and 0.32-fold lower risk of gastric cancer, respectively.
Conclusions
The WISP1 SNPs rs7843546 and rs10956697 were, for the first time, found to reduce susceptibility to gastric cancer in various subgroups of Guangxi Chinese.
