CYP1A2 rs2069514 polymorphism and lung cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis.

Many studies have examined the association between the CYP1A2 rs2069514 polymorphism gene polymorphisms and lung cancer risk in various populations, but their results have been inconsistent. The PubMed was searched for case-control studies published up to Sep 01, 2014. Data were extracted and pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. In this meta-analysis, we assessed six published studies involving comprising 1,168 cases and 1,598 controls of the association between CYP1A2 rs2069514 polymorphism and lung cancer risk. For the homozygote A/A and A allele carriers (G/A + A/A), the pooled ORs were 1.47 (95% CI, 1.15-1.99; P=0.007 for heterogeneity) and 1.43 (95% CI, 1.07-1.90; P=0.000 for heterogeneity), when compared with the homozygous wild-type genotype (G/G). In the stratified analysis by ethnicity, the significantly risks were found among non-Asians for both the A allele carriers and homozygote A/A. However, no significant associations were found in Asian population all genetic models. These results from the meta-analysis suggest that CYP1A2 rs2069514 polymorphism contributes to risk of lung cancer among non-Asian population.
