T Polymorphism with a Decreased Lung Cancer Risk1
Etiology Program, Cancer Research Center of Hawaii, University of Hawaii, Honolulu, Hawaii 96813
The NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase gene, NQO1, often carries a C
T transition at bp 609, which has been associated with a reduced enzymatic activity and which may result in altered metabolic activation of tobacco smoke procarcinogens. We tested the association of this polymorphism with lung cancer risk in a population-based case-control study of 327 cases and 440 controls of Caucasian, Japanese, or Native Hawaiian ancestry in Hawaii. We found a notable difference in the frequency of the variant allele among Japanese (38%), Caucasians (20%), and Hawaiians (22%). Overall, the variant allele was less frequent in cases than in controls (P= 0.03). A significant inverse association was found in Japanese, with adjusted odds ratios of 0.8 (95% confidence interval, 0.45) and 0.3 (0.17) for the heterozygous and homozygous variant genotypes, respectively, compared with the homozygous wild-type genotype (P for genetic trend, 0.02). The association did not reach statistical significance in Caucasians and Hawaiians but was in the same direction.
