Sumario: | Methionine synthase reductase (MTRR) gene involved in the signaling for production of enzyme called methionine synthase reductase that use for the synthesis of methionine, which further used in DNA replication and repair. Genetic variation in MTRR gene may alter the susceptibility of developing urinary bladder cancer. The present study undertaken to identify the contribution of genetic polymorphisms in the MTRR gene on the selected polymorphic sites including c.66A>G and c.524C>T towards urinary bladder cancer risk. Direct-DNA sequencing method was applied for the observation of genotyping distribution of MTRR c.66A>G and c.524C>T polymorphisms in 232 histopathological confirmed cases of transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of urinary bladder cancer and 250 age-, sex- and ethnicity-matched cancer free controls. With significant difference (p = 0.05) of genotype analysis further corresponding Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was applied for adjusting significant confounder variables. Haploview software (version 4.2) was used to perform pairwise Linkage Disequilibrium (LD) analysis. Age (p = 0.01), Habit of smoking (p = 0.05), tobacco consumption (p = 0.001) and diet (p = 0.02) were significantly differed between cases and controls. Both the MTRR substitution showed higher risk of developing urinary bladder cancer (p = <0.001), although this effect alters in multivariable logistic regression analysis in a protective association for both the substitution. No LD observed between the c.66A>G and c.524C>T substitutions. In conclusion, MTRR c.66A>G and c.524C>T substitutions showed a joint effect with the other associated risk factors. Further studies with a greater number of subjects of different ethnicity and polymorphisms are recommended for the better understanding urinary bladder cancer etiology and to screen the population who are at higher risk of developing urinary bladder cancer. |
