Abstract:
:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a genetically heterogeneous neoplasm. Although several genetic and environmental factors have been postulated, no obvious risk factors have been emerged for DLBCL in the general population. DNA repair systems are responsible for maintaining the integrity of the genome and protecting it against genetic alterations that can lead to malignant transformation. The current study aimed at investigating the possible role of ERCC2/XPD Arg156Arg, Asp312Asn and Lys751Gln genetic polymorphisms as risk factors for DLBCL in Egypt. The study included 81 DLBCL patients and 100 healthy controls. Genotyping of the studied genetic polymorphisms was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. Our results revealed that there was no statistical difference encountered in the distribution of -Asp312Asn and -Lys751Gln polymorphic genotypes between DLBCL cases and controls, thus it could not considered as molecular risk factors for DLBCL in Egyptians. However, Arg156Arg polymorphism at exon-6 conferred twofold increased risk of DLBCL (OR 2.034, 95 %CI 1.015-4.35, p = 0.43), and the risk increased when co-inherited with Lys751Gln at exon-23 (OR 3.304, 95 %CI 1.113-9.812, p = 0.038). In conclusion, ERCC2/XPD Arg156Arg polymorphism might be considered as a genetic risk factor for DLBCL in Egyptians, whether alone or conjoined with Lys751Gln.
