Abstract
BACKGROUND: Caveolin-1 (CAV1) polymorphisms have been shown to correlated with breast cancer risk in previous studies. However, the role of CAV1 polymorphisms still remained indecisive, and dual functions of CAV1 was demonstrated in breast cancer development. Consequently, a meta-analysis to evaluate and summarize the association of the CAV1 polymorphisms with breast cancer susceptibility. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Extensive search was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, Google scholar, EMBASE.com, CNKI and Wanfang searching platform up to March 2019. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) were used to evaluate the quality of each study. The Odds ratios (ORs) and the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were analyzed to evaluate the strength of the associations in five genetic models. Inter-study heterogeneity was quantified using the I-squared (I2) test. In addition, the Egger's test and Begg's test were applied to evaluate the publication bias. RESULTS: 4 case-control studies with 2115 cases and 2138 controls were enrolled into this analysis. There was a significant association between rs3807987 polymorphism of CAV1 and breast cancer in allele comparison (A vs. G: OR = 1.288, 95%CI = 1.162-1.428, P < 0.001), heterozygote comparison (AG vs. GG: OR= 1.422, 95%CI=1.233-1.639, P < 0.001), and dominant comparison (AA+AG vs. GG: OR=1.395, 95%CI=1.228-1.586, P < 0.001). A significant association of rs3807987 polymorphism in allele comparison (A vs. G: OR=1.238, 95%CI=1.109-1.383, P < 0.001), heterozygote comparison (AG VS. GG: OR=1.466, 95%CI=1.267-1.697, P < 0.05), and dominant comparison (AA+AG vs. GG: OR=1.384, 95%CI=1.209-1.585, P < 0.001) was also founded amongst Chinese population. A significant association between rs7804372 polymorphism and breast cancer amongst Chinese population in recessive comparison (AA vs. AT + TT: OR = 0.730, 95%CI = 0.567-0.940, P = 0.015) was identified. No significant association between breast cancer risk and rs1997623 was found. CONCLUSION: CAV1 rs3807987 and rs7804372 polymorphisms are associated with the change of breast cancer risk. More well-designed and large studies in various populations are needed to further elaborate these associations.
