ABSTRACT
Background
Our study aimed to elucidate the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in CYP2B6 gene and susceptibility to lung cancer (LC).
Methods
Five SNPs in CYP2B6 were genotyped in Chinese Han population (507 cases and 505 controls) utilizing Agena MassARRAY. The relationship between these SNPs and LC susceptibility was assessed using odds ratios, 95% confidence intervals, and χ2 tests. Additionally, multifactor dimensionality reduction was employed to analyze SNP-SNP interactions. Bioinformatics methods were applied to investigate the function of these SNPs.
Results
We found that rs2099361 was associated with an increased susceptibility to LC in the codominant model (OR = 1.31, p = 0.045). Stratification analysis revealed the allele G at rs4803418 and the allele T at rs4803420 of CYP2B6 (BMI >24 kg/m2) were significantly linked to decreased susceptibility of LC. Conversely, the allele C at rs12979270 (BMI >24 kg/m2) showed increased susceptibility to LC. Moreover, a robust redundant relationship between rs12979270 and rs4803420 was identified in the study. According to the VannoPortal database, we found that rs4803420, rs12979270 and rs2099361 may modulate the binding affinity of LMNB1, SP1 and HDAC2, respectively.
Conclusions
Our results suggest that SNPs in the CYP2B6 gene play crucial roles in LC susceptibility.
