title: hOGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism and lung cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis.
abstract: The Ser326Cys polymorphism in the human 8-oxogunaine glycosylase (hOGG1) gene with lung cancer susceptibility had been investigated by the approaches of PCR-RFLP, PCR-SSCP and ASA. Due to limited specimen and different approaches the conclusion was drawn toughly. To evaluate this correlation comprehensively, a meta-analysis was performed based on 30 case-control studies, including 10,327 cases and 12,148 controls. The random-effects model was used to estimate the odds ratios and 95 % confidence interval for various contrasts of this polymorphism. The combined results suggested that the hOGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism was not associated with lung cancer susceptibility in different genetic models. Similarly, in the stratified analyses by ethnicity and source of control, no risk was observed between all the genetic models and lung cancer risk. Our meta-analysis revealed that there was little correlation between the hOGG1 Ser326Cys polymorphism and the risk of lung cancer.
