ABSTRACT: Background
PPARG, PPARGC1A, and PPARGC1B polymorphisms may be implicated in the development of cancer.Participants and methods
In this study, we selected PPARG rs1801282 C>G and rs3856806 C>T, PPARGC1A rs2970847 C>T, and PPARGC1B rs7732671 G>C and rs17572019 G>A single-nucleotide polymorphisms to explore the relationship between these polymorphisms and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk. A total of 584 HCC patients and 923 controls were enrolled.Results
We found that PPARG rs1801282 C>G polymorphism was correlated with a decreased susceptibility of HCC (CG vs CC, adjusted OR 0.47, 95% CI 0.27-0.82, P=0.007; CG/GG vs CC, adjusted OR 0.52, 95% CI 0.31-0.88, P=0.015). However, PPARG rs3856806 C>T po
