Association of Adiponectin Genotypes With Colorectal Cancer Susceptibility in Taiwan
2020
AIM: To investigate the association between adiponectin (ADIPOQ) genotypes and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk among Taiwanese. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was adopted to identify ADIPOQ rs266729, rs2241766 and rs1501299 genotypes among 362 CRC patients and 362 healthy controls. RESULTS: ADIPOQ rs266729 GG genotype (p=0.0075) and G allele (p=0.0061) are associated with a significantly increased CRC risk. There is no differential distribution of rs2241766 and rs1501299 genotypes. As for the gene-lifestyle interaction, there are obvious joint effects of rs266729 genotype on the CRC risk among non-smoker, non-alcohol drinker, while not on smoker or non-drinker subgroups. No significant correlation was observed between rs266729 genotypic distributions and age, gender, tumor size, location or metastasis status. Interestingly, a correlation of rs266729 genotype and larger BMI on CRC risk was found. CONCLUSION: G allele at ADIPOQ rs266729 may serve as a determiner for CRC risk, especially for those with BMI >/=24.
