Abstract

Objective: A relationship between polymorphisms rs1128503 and rs1045642 in the multidrug resistance 1 gene (MDR1) and susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been reported but is inconclusive. This study was performed to explore the significance of MDR1 polymorphisms rs1128503 and rs1045642 in screening and diagnosis of HCC.

Methods: Studies of association analyses between MDR1 gene polymorphisms rs1128503 and rs1045642 and HCC were selected from three foreign language databases (PubMed, Cochrane, and Embase) and three Chinese databases (Wanfang, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and China Knowledge Network) and subjected to meta-analysis.

Results: We found no significant relationship between the rs1128503 polymorphism and susceptibility to HCC in 4 cohorts and no significant relationship between the rs1045642 polymorphism and susceptibility to HCC in 3 cohorts.

Conclusions: There was no relationship between polymorphisms rs1128503 or rs1045642 of the MDR1 gene and susceptibility to HCC.

Keywords: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC); P-glycoprotein; meta-analysis; multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1); polymorphism; susceptibility.

Forest plot of hepatocellular cancer risk associated with rs1128503 (C>T) models. (a) allele model; (b) homozygous model; (c) heterozygous model; (d) recessive model; (e) dominant model. The horizontal line indicates the lower and upper limits of the 95% CI; the square indicates the OR, with the size of the square indicating the weight of the study and the dotted red line indicating the combined OR value. The diamond represents the combined effect size, and the larger the diamond, the larger the confidence interval. A cross between the diamond and the ineffective line indicates no statistical correlation between the factors studied and the outcome; if the diamond falls on the left side of the invalid vertical line, it indicates a protective factor; if the diamond falls on the right side of the line, it indicates a risk factor. OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
