MTRR rs1532268 polymorphism and gastric cancer risk: evidence from a meta-analysis

Objective The methionine synthase reductase ( MTRR ) gene encodes the MTRR enzyme involved in the metabolic pathway of homocysteine. Several studies investigated the effect of the MTRR rs1532268 gene polymorphism on the risk of gastric cancer (GC), but the results have been inconsistent. Methods We...

description Objective The methionine synthase reductase ( MTRR ) gene encodes the MTRR enzyme involved in the metabolic pathway of homocysteine. Several studies investigated the effect of the MTRR rs1532268 gene polymorphism on the risk of gastric cancer (GC), but the results have been inconsistent. Methods We performed a comprehensive and systematic search of PubMed, Google Scholar, MEDLINE, Science Direct, Scopus, CNKI, and Web of Science. Five studies were included in this meta-analysis to determine whether MTRR rs1532268 polymorphism contributes to the risk of GC. Results Pooled data indicated that the MTRR rs1532268 polymorphism significantly increased GC risk under the allele comparison model (odds ratio [OR] = 1.14, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.01–1.29) and dominant model (OR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.00–1.30). In the analysis stratified by ethnicity, no relationship was found in Whites or Asians. Conclusion Our meta-analysis suggests a positive correlation between MTRR rs1532268 polymorphism and GC development.
