Purpose: Individual genetic background can play an essential role in determining the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). and play important roles in the pathogenesis of ESCC. This case-control study aimed to analyze the association between gene polymorphisms and ESCC susceptibility.
Methods: DNA was extracted from the peripheral blood of patients. The Agena MassARRAY platform was used for the genotyping. Statistical analysis was conducted using the chi-squared test or Fisher's exact test, logistic regression analysis, and stratification analysis.
Results: The 'G' allele of rs989902 () and the 'T' allele of rs738722 () were both associated with an increased risk of ESCC (rs989902: OR = 1.23, 95% CI = 1.02-1.47, = 0.028; rs738722: OR = 1.28, 95% CI = 1.06-1.55, = 0.011). Stratification analysis showed that SNPs (rs989902 and rs738722) were notably correlated with an increased risk of ESCC after stratification for age, sex, smoking, and drinking status. In addition, rs738722 might be associated with lower stage, while rs989902 had a lower risk of metastasis.
Conclusion: Our findings display that rs989902 and rs738722 are associated with an increased risk of ESCC in the Chinese Han population.

Objective: Checkpoint kinase 2 gene () is an important mediator of the DNA damage response pathway. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been shown to influence the developing risk and clinical characteristics in various types of human malignancies. The values of SNPs in HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma patients (HCC) were unknown and discussed here.

Objective: A number of recently published genome-wide association studies (GWAS) identified several genetic loci at 6p21, 10q23, 16q12 and 22q12 that were associated with digestive tract tumors, including esophageal cancer (EC). We conducted a case-control study in a Chinese Han population including 360 EC cases and 310 controls to evaluate whether these variants are related to EC susceptibility.
Methods: All these SNPs were genotyped using Sequenom Mass-ARRAY technology.

Background: We previously showed that human papillomavirus (HPV) serostatus was not an independent risk factor for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(ESCC) in nonsmokers and nondrinkers; however, HPV increased the risk in smokers.
Methods: Here we investigated possible interactions between HPV16 serostatus and three susceptibility loci identified in GWASs at apoptosis associated genes with regard to risk of ESCC in a case-control study of 313 patients with ESCC and 314 healthy controls. The loci (CHK2 rs738722, C12orf51 rs2074356, and PLCE1 rs2274223) were genotyped, and the presence or absence of HPV16 in serum was measured by ELISA.

Growing evidence suggests that the checkpoint kinase 2 (CHEK2) signaling pathway occupies a central position in the signaling networks of DNA-damage signaling. Many functional and molecular epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between genetic variants of CHEK2 and various cancers. To evaluate the relationship between CHEK2 functional genetic variants and esophageal cancer risk and the risk of lymph node metastasis among a Chinese population.
