摘要

The conclusions of the published reports on the relationship between glutathione S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) gene polymorphism and the risk of small-cell carcinoma of lung cancer are still debated. GSTP1 is one of the important mutant sites reported at present. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the association between GSTP1 and the risk of small-cell carcinoma of lung cancer. The association investigations were identified from PubMed and Cochrane Library, and eligible studies were included and synthesized using meta-analysis method. Ten reports were included into this meta-analysis for the association of GSTP1 A/G gene polymorphism and small-cell carcinoma of lung cancer. The G allele and GG genotype were not associated with the susceptibility of risk of small-cell carcinoma in overall populations, East-Asians and Turkish population. However, there was an association between GG genotype with the risk of small-cell carcinoma in Caucasians. In conclusion, GG genotype was associated with the risk of small-cell carcinoma in Caucasian patients with lung cancer. However, GSTP1 A/G gene polymorphism is not associated with the susceptibility of small-cell carcinoma in overall populations, East-Asians and Turkish population.
