Abstract
Background:Recently, some studies have suggested that the association of apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) gene polymorphism with prostate cancer (PCa) risk, but there are still some controversies. Hence, we elaborated the relationship between APE1 rs1760944 and rs1130409 gene and PCa risk through systematic literature review and meta-analysis.Methods:As of March 2020, EMBASE, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Science Direct/Elsevier, MEDLINE and CNKI were used for systematic literature retrieval to investigate the correlation between APE1 rs1760944 and rs1130409 gene polymorphism with PCa risk. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager and Stata software.Results:Seven studies were distinguished, consists of 1769 cases of PCa patients and 2237 normal controls. Our results illustrated that there are significant correlation between the APE1 rs1760944 gene polymorphism and PCa in all genetic models (P < .05). The combined odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were as follows: Additive model (ORs 0.62, 95%, CI [0.39, 0.97]); Codominant model (ORs 0.74, 95% CI [0.58, 0.95]); Dominant model (ORs 0.75, 95%, CI [0.59, 0.95]); Recessive model (ORs 0.63, 95% CI [0.41, 0.96]); Allele model (ORs 0.78, 95% CI [0.65, 0.94]). There also have significant associations between APE1 rs1130409 polymorphisms and PCa in all genetic models (P < .05). The combined odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were as follows: Additive model (ORs 1.37, 95%, CI [1.01, 1.85]); Codominant model (ORs 1.21, 95% CI [1.01, 1.44]); Dominant model (ORs 1.33, 95%, CI [1.02, 1.73]); Recessive model (ORs 1.74, 95% CI [1.06, 2.85]); Allele model (ORs 1.14, 95% CI [1.00, 1.29]).Conclusion:This study suggests that APE1 rs1760944 polymorphisms might be a protective factor of PCa, and APE1 rs1130409 is suggested to be a risk factor of PCa. APE1 rs1760944 and rs1130409 polymorphisms may be used in the risk assessment of PCa.
