Abstract
Interleukins (ILs) play a significant role in triggering the inflammatory response in blood vessels and immune cells. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to investigate the relationship between IL-8 (rs4073), IL-13 (rs1800925), IL-22 (rs1179251, rs1179246, and rs2227485), and IL-27 (rs17855750 and rs153109) polymorphisms and the risk of developing colorectal cancer (CRC). Four databases were searched up until October 13, 2023, without any restrictions, to find relevant studies. The association was evaluated using crude odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals in five genetic models. A total of twenty-three articles were entered into the meta-analysis. The pooled ORs (p-values) for the IL-8 (rs4073) polymorphism were 0.98 (0.63), 0.93 (0.44), 0.89 (0.13), 0.94 (0.38), and 0.99 (0.90) for studies following HWE without heterogeneity, and for all studies with high heterogeneity were 1.03 (0.69), 1.30 (0.07), 1.04 (0.71), 1.12 (0.20), and 1.23 (0.06). For the IL-13 (rs1800925) polymorphism, the pooled ORs were 1.44 (0.06), 2.58 (0.0004), 1.72 (0.16), 1.82 (0.09), and 2.37 (0.001) in AHHDR models, respectively. The pooled ORs of IL-22 (rs1179251) polymorphism for AHHDR models were 0.97 (0.92), 0.92 (0.90), 0.98 (p = 0.95), 1.08 (0.87), and 0.96 (0.82), respectively. The pooled ORs of IL-22 (rs1179246) polymorphism for AHHDR models were 0.98 (0.67), 0.97 (0.80), 0.92 (0.36), 0.93 (0.42), and 1.02 (0.84), respectively. The pooled ORs of IL-22 (rs2227485) polymorphism for AHHDR models were 1.47 (0.02), 2.03 (0.02), 1.28 (0.29), 1.52 (0.06), and 1.70 (0.04), respectively. The pooled ORs of IL-27 (rs17855750) polymorphism for AHHDR models were 0.53 (0.46), 0.19 (0.28), 1.10 (0.60), 0.55 (0.58), and 0.27 (p = 0.05), respectively. The pooled ORs of IL-27 (rs153109) polymorphism for AHHDR models were 1.28 (0.007), 1.45 (0.002), 1.40 (0.0002), 1.41 (< 0.0001), and 1.20 (0.09), respectively. The results reported that just the TT genotype of IL-13 (rs1800925), the T allele and TT genotype of IL-22 (rs2227485), and the G allele and GG, AG and GG + AG genotypes of IL-27 (rs153109) polymorphisms had an elevated risk in CRC patients.
