Popis: Epidemiological studies of the association of variants p53 Arg72Pro and MDM2 single-nucleotide polymorphism 309 (SNP309) with glioma risk have produced inconsistent results. The aim of the current study was to evaluate the association of these 2 variants with glioma susceptibility using a meta-analysis approach. For p53 Arg72Pro, 10 case-control studies including 2587 glioma patients and 4061 unrelated controls were identified. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) for Arg/Pro heterozygotes and Pro/Pro homozygotes were 1.08 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.85-1.37] and 1.08 (95%CI = 0.85-1.36), respectively, when compared to Arg/Arg carriers. Under the dominant effect model, Pro allele carriers also showed no significantly elevated glioma risk (pooled OR = 1.11, 95%CI = 0.90-1.38), and similar results were found under the recessive-effect model (pooled OR = 1.17, 95%CI = 0.85-1.61). For variant MDM2 SNP309, 3 case-control studies including 606 cases and 309 controls were identified. A marginal association with glioma risk was found for heterozygous G/T carriers (pooled OR = 1.95, 95%CI = 1.00- 3.81), whereas homozygous G/G carriers showed an increased but not significantly elevated risk of glioma (pooled OR = 2.14, 95%CI = 0.71-6.45) compared with that of T/T homozygotes. We also found no significant association between the MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism and glioma risk (pooled OR = 1.86, 95%CI = 0.94-3.67 and pooled OR = 1.25, 95%CI = 0.62-2.56, respectively) under the dominant and recessive models. Taken together, the current data suggested that the 2 polymorphisms may not contribute to glioma susceptibility.
