SMAD7 rs4939827 variant contributes to colorectal cancer risk in Chinese population

A genome-wide association study identified a common genetic variant rs4939827 at 18q21 in SMAD7 to be related with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk with OR=1.2 and P =7.80E-28. Until recently, several meta-analysis studies have been conducted, and reported significant association between rs4939827 and C...

Sumario:A genome-wide association study identified a common genetic variant rs4939827 at 18q21 in SMAD7 to be related with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk with OR=1.2 and P =7.80E-28. Until recently, several meta-analysis studies have been conducted, and reported significant association between rs4939827 and CRC risk. However none of these studies evaluated the potential association between rs4939827 and CRC risk in Chinese population. In this study, we evaluated this association by a meta-analysis using 12077 samples including 5816 CRC cases and 6261 controls. In the end, we identified the T allele of rs4939827 to be significantly related with an increase CRC risk (P=2.22E-05, OR=1.14, 95% CI 1.07-1.21) in Chinese population.
