Purpose: To investigate the association of DNMT3B -283T>C polymorphism with the risk of lung or gastric cancer, which was followed by a meta-analysis.
Methods: The genotyping of-283T>C was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and was confirmed by sequencing.
Results: The results of this case-control study showed that -283T>C was not associated with the risk of lung or gastric cancer, and further stratified analysis according to age, gender, smoking status, and alcohol status confirmed the present finding. However, data from a meta-analysis in the Asian population revealed a significant association between -283T>C and lung cancer risk in the allelic model (C vs. T: odds ratio [OR] = 1.28, 95% confidence interval [Cl], 1.06-1.55, p = 0.01) and two genetic models (CC vs. TC: OR = 1.29, 95% Cl, 1.04-1.59, p = 0.02; CC vs. TC + TT: OR = 1.30, 95% Cl, 1.06-1.60, p = 0.01).
Conclusions: These results provided evidence that the DNMT3B -283T>C polymorphism might significantly contribute to the lung cancer risk in the Asian population, but not the gastric cancer risk in the Chinese population.
