Association between IL1B gene and cervical cancer susceptibility in Chinese Uygur Population: A Case-Control study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Interleukin-1β (IL-1B) has been recognized as a pro-inflammatory cytokine and associated with tumorigenesis. We aimed to evaluate the contribution of IL-1B polymorphisms to the susceptibility of cervical cancer in Chinese Uygur population.

Methods

Seven variants were genotyped by Agena MassARRAY platform in 267 cervical cancer patients and 302 healthy controls. Allelic, genotypic, and haplotypic association analyses adjusted for age were investigated using odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI). GEPIA and UALCAN databases were used to evaluate expression and prognostic of IL-1B gene in cervical cancer.

Results

Our result revealed IL-1B rs1143627-AA (OR = 1.98, p = 0.029) and rs16944-GG (OR = 2.01, p = 0.025) was associated with an increased risk
