The relationship between the Filaggrin gene(FLG) rs2065955 polymorphism and susceptibility to Epstein-Barr virus(EBV)-associated gastric carcinoma(EBVa GC) and EBV-negative gastric carcinoma(EBVn GC) was investigated in Shandong Province,China.We detected the FLG rs2065955 genotype and allele distribution by using PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism(RFLP) in 64 EBVa GC,82 EBVn GC,and 111 normal control samples.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the level of FLG protein in 35 EBVa GC and 51 EBVn GC tumor tissues.Compared with normal controls,the genotype CC and allele C of FLG rs2065955 showed higher frequency in EBVa GC and EBVn GC.There was no significant difference between EBVa GC and EBVn GC in allele distribution of FLG rs2065955,but the genotype CC was found more frequently in EBVa GC than in EBVn GC.The risk of developing either EBVa GC or EBVn GC in genotype CC was higher than in other genotypes.Furthermore,genotype CC of FLG rs2065955 may contribute more to the risk of developing EBVa GC than EBVn GC.There was no significant difference in the expression level of FLG protein between EBVa GC and EBVn GC.In conclusion,the FLG rs2065955 polymorphism was significantly related to gastric carcinoma.Allele C of FLG rs2065955 could be a risk factor for EBVa GC or EBVn GC,while genotype CC of FLG rs2065955 was especially associated with EBVa GC.
The relationship between the Filaggrin gene (FLG) rs2065955 polymorphism and susceptibility to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) -associated gastric carcinoma (EBVa GC) and EBV-negative gastric carcinoma (EBVn GC) was investigated in Shandong Province, China. FLG rs2065955 genotype and allele distribution by using PCR and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) in 64 EBVa GC, 82 EBVn GC, and 111 normal control samples. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the level of FLG protein in 35 EBVa GC and 51 EBVn GC tumor tissues. Compared with normal controls, the genotype CC and allele C of FLG rs2065955 showed higher frequency in EBVa GC and EBVn GC. There was no significant difference between EBVa GC and EBVn GC in allele distribution of FLG rs2065955, but the genotype CC was found more frequently in EBVa GC than in EBVn GC. The risk of developing either EBVa GC or EBVn GC in genotype CC was higher than in other genotypes.Furthermore, genotype CC of FLG rs2065955 may contribute more to th e risk of developing EBVa GC than EBVn GC. There was no significant difference in the expression level of FLG protein between EBVa GC and EBVn GC. conclusion, the FLG rs2065955 polymorphism was significantly related to gastric carcinoma. Allele C of FLG rs2065955 could be a risk factor for EBVa GC or EBVn GC, while genotype CC of FLG rs2065955 was especially associated with EBVa GC.
