title: Association of programmed death-1 gene polymorphism rs2227981 with tumor: evidence from a meta analysis.
abstract: To investigate the association of programmed death-1 gene polymorphism rs2227981 with tumor risk. The PubMed, Medline, Ovid Medline, EMBASE, Web of Knowledge were searched. Meta-analyses were conducted using RevMan 5.2.2 software. Total six researches involving in a total of 1427 tumor patients and 1811 healthy control people were included into this meta analysis. There was no association of PD-1 gene polymorphism with total tumor risk under four genetic models. (CT+TT vs CC, OR=1.09, 95% CI=0.80-1.49, P=0.59; CT+CC vs TT, OR=0.93, 95% CI=0.52-1.66, P=0.61; TT vs CC, OR=0.99, 95% CI=0.57-1.72, P=0.97; CT vs CC, OR=1.16, 95% CI=0.80-1.70, P=0.43). The sub-group analysis shown there were a significantly difference on association of PD-1 gene polymorphism with digestive system tumor risk between tumor patients and healthy control people, except recessive model. (CT+TT vs CC, OR=1.57, 95% CI=1.20-2.07, P=0.001; TT vs CC, OR=1.67, 95% CI=1.12-2.49, P=0.01; CT vs CC, OR=1.51, 95% CI=1.13-2.01, P=0.005). Moreover, the meta analysis results shown that there were association of PD-1 gene polymorphism with tumor risk under two models for the tumor specific occurring only in women. (CT+TT vs CC, OR=0.80, 95% CI=0.67-0.95, P=0.01; TT vs CC, OR=0.61, 95% CI=0.44-0.83, P=0.002). This study suggests that PD-1 gene polymorphism rs2227981 is associated with specific tumor types, including digestive system tumor and tumor specific occurring in woman.
