Abstract 2288: Effects of tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption on risks of CYP1B1 polymorphisms for prostate cancer

Abstract

Abstract Cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) converts xenobiotics to carcinogens and polymorphic variants have been shown to increase activity levels. Lifestyle choices such as tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption are known to enhance the carcinogenesis process and in this study, how these factors may interact with CYP1B1 polymorphisms and affect prostate cancer risk was assessed. Blood genomic DNA from a Caucasian population consisting of 405 healthy men and 400 prostate cancer patients were obtained. Of these, 507 were current or former smokers and 407 were alcohol drinkers. Eight polymorphic sites of the promoter region of CYP1B1 (rs2551188 G to A, rs2567206 G to A, rs2567207 A to G, rs162556 A to G, rs10175368 C to T, rs163090 T to A, rs162330 T to G, and rs162331 A to G) were analyzed in samples using Taqman genotyping assays and real-time PCR. Lifestyle factors and its influence on CYP1B1 polymorphisms toward cancer risks were also evaluated. Overall, both alcohol (P=0.006) and smoker (P=0.069) status were associated with prostate cancer. CYP1B1 variants were also risks for cancer at rs2551188 (P=0.043), rs2567206 (P=0.008), and rs10175368 (P=0.001). Evaluation of linkage disequilibrium show rs2551188, rs2567206, rs2567207, and rs10175368 to be linked and interestingly, the G-G-A-C haplotype (wildtype at respective sites) was significantly reduced in cancer (P=0.0282). When classified by lifestyle factors, no associations for CYP1B1 variants were found for cancer among non-smokers with rs10175368 (P=0.051) being a risk among non-drinkers. On the other hand, variants at both rs2567206 and rs10175368 showed increased cancer risk among smokers (P=0.032 and 0.002, respectively) as well as drinkers (P=0.044 and 0.019, respectively). No genotyping differences were observed when analyzing cancers by pathological grades. These results demonstrate smoker and alcoholic drinker status to modify the risks of CYP1B1 polymorphisms for prostate cancer and this is of importance in understanding their role in the pathogenesis of this disease.
