Abstract
Inflammation has been well-established as a hallmark of colorectal cancer (CRC). Interleukin-1 alpha (IL-1α) is one of the primary inflammatory mediators driving the pathogenesis of inflammation-associated CRC. This systematic review presents the roles of IL-1α in the pathogenesis of the disease. Bibliographic databases PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus and Web of Science were systematically searched for articles that addresses the relationship between IL-1α and colorectal cancer. We highlighted various mechanisms by which IL-1α promotes the pathogenesis of CRC including enhancement of angiogenesis, metastasis, resistance to therapy, and inhibition of tumour suppressive genes. We also discussed the potential mechanisms by which IL-1α expression is induced or secreted in various studies. Beyond these, the systematic review also highlights several potential therapeutic strategies which should be further explored in the future; to target IL-1α and/or its associated pathways; paving our way in finding effective treatments for CRC patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers worldwide, and genetic variations exert distinct roles in its pathogenesis. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in interleukin 1 alpha (IL1A) were reported to be correlated to the susceptibility of diverse cancers. The aim of this study was to assess the association of IL1A SNPs with the risk of colorectal cancer in a Chinese Han population. METHODS To evaluate the correlation between IL1A polymorphisms and CRC risk, Agena MassARRAY platform was used for genotype determination among 248 CRC patients and 463 controls. The relationships between IL1A variants and CRC susceptibility were examined by logistic regression analysis. Stratified analysis was conducted for the association detection in males and females. Haplotype construction and analysis were applied to evaluate the potential relationship between the genetic block and the risk of CRC. SNP functional exploration was performed with available bioinformatics datasets. RESULTS After adjusting for age and gender, the "AA" genotype of rs2856838 exhibited a risk association with colorectal cancer in the recessive model (adjusted OR = 1.98, 95% CI: 1.05-3.72, p = 0.036). With stratified analysis, the recessive models of rs3783550 (OR = 2.17, 95% CI: 1.03-4.60, p = 0.043), rs2856838 (OR = 2.58, 95% CI: 1.13-5.87, p = 0.024), rs1609682 (OR = 2.20, 95% CI: 1.04-4.65, p = 0.040), and rs3783521 (OR = 2.13, 95% CI: 1.01-4.49, p = 0.048) revealed significant relationships between these variants and an increased CRC risk only in females. Bioinformatics analysis also revealed the putative functions of the selected SNPs. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that rs2856838 could influence the susceptibility to CRC in Chinese Han population from northwest China. IL1A variants rs3783550, rs2856838, rs1609682, and rs3783521 were associated with CRC risk only in females.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have reported that polymorphisms in the interleukin-1 gene may be involved in tumorigenesis and tumor progression. AIM The purpose of the present study was to evaluate whether an insertion/deletion polymorphism, rs3783553, located in the miR-122 target gene interleukin-1α, was associated with the risk of colorectal cancer. METHODS Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood of 382 patients with colorectal cancer and 433 controls, and the polymorphism was genotyped using a polymerase chain reaction assay. RESULTS Significantly decreased colorectal cancer risk was observed to be associated with the interleukin-1α rs3783553 insertion/insertion genotype ( P=0.0001; OR=0.41; 95% CI 0.26, 0.65) and the insertion allele ( P<0.001; OR=0.68; 95% CI 0.55, 0.83). Stratification analysis based on clinical and pathological features also revealed that the "TTCA" insertion allele of rs3783553 contributes to slow the progression of colorectal cancer. CONCLUSION These results suggest that the rs3783553 polymorphism could be a useful genetic marker to predict the size/extent of colorectal cancer.

Abstract
IL-1α, an important regulator of immune and inflammation responses, has been implicated in cancer development and prognosis. An insertion (Ins)/deletion (Del) polymorphism (IL-1α rs3783553) in the 3′ UTR of IL-1α may disrupt a binding site for miRNA-122 and may affect its transcription level. Thus, this polymorphism may cause interindividual variation in immune and inflammation responses and thus may lead to different susceptibility to treatment response and prognosis of such patients. We evaluated the association of IL-1α rs3783553 polymorphism with risk of recurrence of squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx (SCCOP) in a cohort of 1008 patients. Log-rank test and univariate and multivariable Cox models were used to evaluate associations. Compared with patients with Del/Del homozygous genotype, the patients with Ins/Del+Ins/Ins variant genotypes had worse disease-free survival (log-rank P < 0.0001) and increased risk of SCCOP recurrence (HR, 2.4, 95% CI, 1.7-3.3) after multivariable adjustment. Furthermore, among patients with HPV16-positive tumors, the patients with Ins/Del+Ins/Ins variant genotypes of the IL-1α polymorphism had worse disease-free survival (log-rank P < 0.0001) and much higher recurrence risk than those with Del/Del homozygous genotype of this polymorphism (HR, 16.3, 95% CI, 5.0-52.7). Our findings suggest that IL-1α rs3783553 polymorphism may modulate the risk of SCCOP recurrence in patients, particularly for patients with HPV16-positive tumors. However, larger studies are needed to validate these results.

Analysis of 12 variants in the development of gastric and colorectal cancers. World J Gastroenterol 2017; 23:8533-8543.

Abstract
AIM To evaluate the relation between 12 polymorphisms and the development of gastric cancer (GC) and colorectal cancer (CRC).
METHODS In this study, we included 125 individuals with GC diagnosis, 66 individuals with CRC diagnosis and 475 cancer-free individuals. All participants resided in the North region of Brazil and authorized the use of their samples. The 12 polymorphisms (in CASP8, CYP2E1, CYP19A1, IL1A, IL4, MDM2, NFKB1, PAR1, TP53, TYMS, UGT1A1 and XRCC1 genes) were genotyped in a single PCR for each individual, followed by fragment analysis. To avoid misinterpretation due to population substructure, we applied a previously developed set of 61 ancestry-informative markers that can also be genotyped by multiplex PCR. The statistical analyses were performed in Structure v.2.3.4, R environment and SPSS v.20.
RESULTS After statistical analyses with the control of confounding factors, such as genetic ancestry, three markers (rs79071878 in IL4, rs3730485 in MDM2 and rs28362491 in NFKB1) were positively associated with the development of GC. One of these markers (rs28362491) and the marker in the UGT1A1 gene (rs8175347) were positively associated with the development of CRC. Therefore, we investigated whether the joint presence of the deleterious alleles of each marker could affect the development of cancer and we obtained positive results in all analyses. Carriers of the combination of alleles RP1 + DEL (rs79071878 and rs28361491, respectively) are at 10-times greater risk of developing GC than carriers of other combinations. Similarly, carriers of the combination of DEL + RARE (rs283628 and rs8175347) are at about 12-times greater risk of developing CRC than carriers of other combinations.
CONCLUSION These findings are important for the comprehension of gastric and CRC development, particularly in highly admixed populations, such as the Brazilian population.

Abstract
CONTEXT Interleukin-1A (IL-1A) is a cytokine involved in inflammatory process. IL-1A (rs3783553) gene polymorphism is comprised in the regulation of IL-1A expression. OBJECTIVE This study aims to evaluate association of IL-1A (I/D) gene polymorphism with NAFLD and its component traits among Egyptian populations. METHODS The study included 75 healthy subjects and 75 patients with NAFLD. Different genotypes of IL-1A (I/D) gene polymorphism were determined by PCR-PAGE technique, serum IL-1A level and other biochemical parameters were measured. RESULTS The major D allele was significantly associated with NAFLD patients (p = .002). DD genotype showed a significant increase in BMI and decrease in HDL-C. Also serum IL-1A was significantly correlated with the DD genotype. Serum IL-1A showed a significant positive correlation with BMI, triglycerides, total cholesterol, LDL-C, VLDL-C and FBG, and a significant negative correlation with HDL-C. CONCLUSIONS Major D allele of IL-1A (I/D) gene polymorphism is associated with NAFLD in the Egyptian population.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is the definite carcinogen of gastric cancer. H. pylori infection induces chronic inflammation, causes DNA damage and aberrant methylation of genes and these pathways are involved in H. pylori-related gastric carcinogenesis. Polymorphisms of the genes involved in these pathways could alter susceptibility to gastric cancer. In this mini review, we focused on the role of polymorphisms in these genes on the susceptibility to gastric cancer, with a particular emphasis on their possible interactions with H. pylori infection. We found that many studies on this theme did not simultaneously report H. pylori infection and the interactions remained inconclusive.

PURPOSE Alarmins are constitutively present endogenous molecules that essentially act as early warning signals for the immune system. We provide a brief overview of major alarmins and highlight their roles in tumor immunity. METHODS We searched PubMed up to January 10, 2016, using alarmins and/or damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), as key words. We selected and reviewed articles that focused on the discovery and functions of alarmin and their roles in tumor immunity. FINDINGS Alarmins are essentially endogenous immunostimulatory DAMP molecules that are exposed in response to danger (eg, infection or tissue injury) as a result of degranulation, cell death, or induction. They are sensed by chemotactic receptors and pattern recognition receptors to induce immune responses by promoting the recruitment and activation of leukocytes, particularly antigen-presenting cells. IMPLICATIONS Accumulating data suggest that certain alarmins, High-mobility group nucleosome-binding protein 1 (HMGN1) in particular, contribute to the generation of antitumor immunity. Some alarmins can also be used as cancer biomarkers. Therefore, alarmins can potentially be applied for our fight against cancers.

Distribution of allelic and genotypic frequencies of IL1A, IL4, NFKB1 and PAR1 variants in Native American, African, European and Brazilian populations. BMC Res Notes 2016; 9:101. [PMID: 26879815 PMCID: PMC4754858 DOI: 10.1186/s13104-016-1906-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2015] [Accepted: 02/02/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The inflammatory response plays a key role at different stages of cancer development. Allelic variants of the interleukin 1A (IL1A), interleukin 4 (IL4), nuclear factor kappa B1 (NFKB1) and protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) genes may influence not only the inflammatory response but also susceptibility to cancer development. Among major ethnic or continental groups, these polymorphic variants present different allelic frequencies. In admixed populations, such as the Brazilian population, data on distribution of these polymorphisms are limited. Here, we collected samples of cancer-free individuals from the north, northeast, midwest, south and southeast regions of Brazil and from the three main groups that gave rise to the Brazilian population: Native Americans from the Brazilian Amazon, Africans and Europeans. We describe the allelic distributions of four IL1A (rs3783553), IL4 (rs79071878), NFKB1 (rs28362491) and PAR1 (rs11267092) gene polymorphisms, which the literature describes as polymorphisms with a risk of cancer or worse prognosis for cancer. RESULTS The genotypic distribution of the four polymorphisms was statistically distinct between Native Americans, Africans and Europeans. For the allelic frequency of these polymorphisms, the Native American population was the most distinct among the three parental populations, and it included the greatest number of alleles with a risk of cancer or worse prognosis for cancer. The PAR1 gene polymorphism allelic distribution was similar among all Brazilian regions. For the other three markers, the northern region population was statistically distinct from other Brazilian region populations. CONCLUSION The IL1A, IL4, NFKB1 and PAR1 gene polymorphism allelic distributions are homogeneous among the regional Brazilian populations, except for the northern region, which significantly differs from the other four Brazilian regions. Among the parental populations, the Native American population exhibited a higher incidence of alleles with risk of cancer or worse prognosis for cancer, which can indicate greater susceptibility to this disease. These genetic data may be useful for future studies on the association between these polymorphisms and cancer in the investigated populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to evaluate whether the insertion/deletion polymorphism (rs3783553) locating in the 3' untranslated region (3'UTRs) of IL-1A was related to the risk of gastric cancer (GC) in a Chinese population and explore the possible molecular mechanism. METHODS Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood of 519 GC patients and 536 healthy control individuals. The IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism was genotyped by using a polymerase chain reaction assay. The vectors containing the insertion or deletion allele were constructed, and luciferase assay was used to detect the effect of the polymorphism on the transcriptional activity of IL-1A. RESULTS Strong evidence of association was observed between the IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism and susceptibility to GC in the study. In addition, the `TTCA' insertion allele of rs3783553 disrupts the binding site for miR-122 and miR-378, thereby increasing transcription of IL-1α in vitro. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that functional polymorphism rs3783553 in IL-1A could contribute to GC susceptibility, possibly or at least partially through affecting the transcriptional activity of IL-1A.

Abstract
Purpose Previous studies have reported the association of an insertion/deletion (Ins/Del) polymorphism (rs3783553) in the 3′ untranslated region of interleukin-1A (IL-1A) with the risk of cancer, such as oral squamous cell carcinoma, nasopharyngeal carcinoma, and cervical carcinoma. However, the results are still inconsistent. The present meta-analysis aimed to clarify the association of IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism with cancer risk. Methods All eligible studies were selected from PubMed, Web of Science, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure up to September 2, 2015. Summary odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate cancer risk. Results A total of ten case–control studies with 4,514 cases and 6,689 controls were included this meta-analysis. We found that IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism was significantly associated with cancer risk (Ins/Ins + Ins/Del vs Del/Del: OR =0.79, 95% CI =0.67–0.92; Ins/Ins vs Del/Del: OR =0.61, 95% CI =0.47–0.79; Ins/Ins vs Ins/Del + Del/Del: OR =0.67, 95% CI =0.55–0.83; Ins vs Del: OR =0.81, 95% CI =0.72–0.92). In the stratified analyses, significant effects were found among Asian populations (Ins/Ins + Ins/Del vs Del/Del: OR =0.81, 95% CI =0.69–0.95) and cervical carcinoma (Ins/Ins vs Del/Del: OR =0.51, 95% CI =0.34–0.76; Ins/Ins vs Ins/Del + Del/Del: OR =0.52, 95% CI =0.35–0.78). Conclusion Our meta-analysis suggests that the IL-1A rs3783553 polymorphism contributes to susceptibility to cancer. However, well-designed studies with larger sample sizes are required to verify the results.

Abstract
Gastric cancer (GC) is the second cause of cancer-related death worldwide. Interleukin (IL)-16 has a vital role in the development and homeostasis of the immune system. In the present study, we evaluated an exon variant rs4072111 C/T polymorphism and 3' UTR variant rs1131445 C/T within the miRNA binding with gastric cancer susceptibility in Iranian population. Genomic DNA was isolated from peripheral blood samples according to phenol chloroform extraction. The genotypes of IL-16 polymorphisms rs1131445 T/C and rs4072111 T/C were determined by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. In this case control study, a total of 256 patients with gastric cancer (238 cases (92.9 %) non-cardia and 18 cases (7.1 %) cardia) and 300 healthy control subjects were evaluated. In the present study, we found a significant association between rs4072111 of IL-16 gene and risk of GC in Iranian population. Individuals with CT genotype showed a significant association with 1.79-fold increased risk of GC (P = 0.008; adjusted OR 1.792; 95 % CI 1.164-2.759). The significant association was also detected for T allele of rs4072111 and increased risk of GC (P < 0.001; adjusted OR 1.981; 95 % CI 1.354-2.900). We also observed statistically a significant relationship between rs1131445 of IL-16 CT genotype and GC risk. Carriers of IL-16 CT genotype compared with TT genotype had 1.44 times higher increased likelihood of GC (P = 0.048; adjusted OR 1.445; 95 % CI 1.003-2.084). After stratification according to gender, we observed that in rs1131445, CT and CC male carriers had a higher risk of GC than females (P = 0.08; adjusted OR 1.608; 95 % CI 0.945-2.737 and P = 0.08; adjusted OR 2.186; 95 % CI 0.897-5.325, respectively). We also observed that for male carriers with C allele in rs1131445, there was a 1.53-fold higher risk of GC risk than female subjects (P = 0.029; adjusted OR 1.53; 95 % CI 1.04.4-2.248). We found that the rs1131445 T/C and rs4072111 T/C variants of IL-16 were significantly associated with increased risk of GC in Iranian population.

Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a malignant tumor common in children. Studies of genetic susceptibility to cancer using biallelic insertion/deletion (INDEL) type polymorphisms associated with cancer development pathways may help to clarify etymology of ALL. In this study, we investigate the role of eight functional INDEL polymorphisms and influence of genetic ancestry to B-cell ALL susceptibility in children of Brazilian Amazon population, which has a high degree of inter-ethnic admixture. Ancestry analysis was estimated using a panel of 48 autosomal ancestry informative markers. 130 B-cell ALL patients and 125 healthy controls were included in this study. The odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were adjusted for confounders. The results indicated an association between the investigated INDEL polymorphisms in CASP8 (rs3834129), CYP19A1 (rs11575899) e XRCC1 (rs3213239) genes in the development of B-cell ALL. The carriers of Insertion/Insertion (Ins/Ins) genotype of the polymorphism in CASP8 gene presented reduced chances of developing B-cell ALL (P=0.001; OR=0.353; 95% CI=0.192-0.651). The Deletion/Deletion (Del/Del) genotype of the polymorphism in CYP19A1 gene was associated to a lower chance of developing B-cell ALL (P=3.35×10-6; OR=0.121; 95% CI=0.050-0.295), while Del/Del genotype of the polymorphism in XRCC1 gene was associated to a higher chance of developing B-cell ALL (P=2.01×10-4; OR=6.559; 95% CI=2.433-17.681). We also found that Amerindian ancestry correlates with the risk of B-cell ALL. For each increase of 10% in the Amerindian ancestry results in 1.4-fold chances of developing B-cell ALL (OR=1.406; 95% IC=1.123-1.761), while each increase of 10% in the European ancestry presents a protection effect in the development of B-cell ALL (OR=0.666; 95% IC=0.536-0.827). The results suggest that genetic factors influence leukemogenesis and might be explored in the stratification of B-cell ALL risk in admixed populations.

Abstract
We aimed to investigate the association between rs3783553 polymorphism and susceptibility to epithelial ovarian cancer in a Chinese population and discussed the risk factors associated with survival time. In a case-control study, 301 patients diagnosed with epithelial ovarian cancer and 240 healthy controls were genotyped for rs3783553 polymorphism. Survival time of ovarian cancer patients was explored by Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox proportional hazards modeling. The distributions of genotype and allele frequencies were significantly different between cases and controls. The variant homozygote (ins/ins) was associated with a significantly reduced risk of ovarian cancer. The patients with del/ins polymorphism seemed to be diagnosed "earlier" (FIGO stage I-II) and be more likely to achieve optimal cytoreductive surgery. Advanced FIGO stage (stages III-IV) and non-optimal cytoreductive surgery (residual tumor <1 cm) were poor prognostic factors in the univariate analysis. However, optimal cytoreductive surgery was found to be the only independent significant prognostic factor. This study suggests that rs3783553 polymorphism may be involved in the susceptibility to epithelial ovarian cancer. It may also be related with the tumor stage and the ability to achieve optimal tumor surgery, while the latter predicts the clinical outcomes for patients as the only independent prognostic factor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphisms in the 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) targeted by miRNAs alter the strength of miRNA binding in a manner that affects the behaviour of individual miRNAs. An insertion (Ins)/deletion (Del) polymorphism (rs3783553) in the 3' UTR of IL-1α may disrupt a binding site for miRNA-122. IL-1α plays an important role in inflammation, immunity and defense against infection. Thus, we hypothesised that the rs3783553 polymorphism affects individual susceptibility to human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). METHODS We genotyped the rs3783553 polymorphism; and determined HPV16 L1 serology, tumour HPV16 DNA and serum IL-1α expression. Univariate/multivariable logistic regression models were used to calculate associations. RESULTS We found that HPV16 L1 seropositivity alone was associated with an increased risk of OSCC (Odds ratio (OR), 3.1; 95% confidence interval (CI), 2.1-4.6), and the risk of HPV16-associated OSCC was modified by the rs3783553 polymorphism. Patients with both HPV16 L1 seropositivity and Del/Del genotype for the rs3783553 had the highest risk of OSCC when using patients with HPV16 L1 seronegativity and Ins/Del+Ins/Ins genotypes as a comparison group. Notably, that effect modification was particularly pronounced in several subgroups (e.g. SCCOP, never-smokers and never-drinkers). The patients with Del/Del genotype were approximately 3.0 times more likely to have HPV16-positive squamous cell carcinoma of the oropharynx (SCCOP) tumours compared to those patients with Ins/Del+Ins/Ins genotypes. Additionally, functional relevance of this variant was characterised to explore the genotype-phenotype correlation. CONCLUSION These results suggest that IL-1α 3' UTR rs3783553 polymorphism may be functional and influence susceptibility to HPV16-associated OSCC, particularly for SCCOP. Validation of our findings is warranted.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of noncoding small RNA molecules (21-25 nucleotides long) which are found in plants and animals. They can regulate the expression of target genes by cleaving and degrading or repressing the translation of target miRNAs. Many studies have confirmed that body fluid miRNAs are closely related to tumor development. This paper introduces the structure, function, characteristics and detection of gastric juice miRNAs, highlighting their role in the screening and diagnosis of gastric cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Previous studies have shown that miRNA plays a key role in cervical carcinogenesis. Interleukin (IL)-1α can promote tumor growth, invasion, migration, and angiogenesis. An insertion/deletion polymorphism (rs3783553) in the IL1A 3' untranslated region may disrupt a binding site for miR-122 and miR-378 and thus change the transcription of IL-1α. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between the rs3783553 polymorphism and the risk of cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC). METHODS Polymerase chain reaction was used to genotype the IL1A rs3783553 polymorphism in 235 patients with CSCC and 326 controls. RESULTS We found that the ins/ins genotype had a decreased risk to develop CSCC (odds ratio [OR]=0.48, 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.25-0.95). However, no significant association was observed between the IL1A rs3783553 genotype and clinical features. CONCLUSION These findings indicate that the IL1A rs3783553 polymorphism may be associated with the etiology of CSCC.

Abstract
Several variants within gene-encoding endothelial isoform of nitric oxide synthase have been reported to confer prostate cancer (PCa) susceptibility and/or progression. Nevertheless, studies referring to this issue have yielded inconsistent results. In order to elucidate the involvement of these variants in prostate carcinogenesis, we have conducted a meta-analysis of previously published case-control and relevant case-only studies. Eleven studies comprising in total 3,806 cases and 4,466 controls were included in the meta-analysis which yielded evidence of association of rs2070744 (ORCC = 1.43, 95% CI 1.04-1.97; p = 0.03) and intron 4a/b variant (ORab+aa = 1.47, 95% CI 1.00-2.14; p = 0.05) with PCa risk under recessive and dominant model, respectively. Furthermore, PCa patients carrying 4a/b a allele were found to have an increased risk of cancer progression to a less differentiated form, characterized by a high Gleason score (OR = 2.29, 95% CI 1.51-3.49; p < 0.01) and to higher TNM stage (OR = 2.55, 95% CI 1.71-3.81; p < 0.01). These results support the involvement of NOS3 variants in molecular pathogenesis of PCa.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate whether an insertion/deletion polymorphism (rs3783553) locating in the miR-122 target gene IL1A 3' untranslated region was related to the risk of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral venous blood of 273 patients with PTC and 509 controls. The IL1A rs3783553 polymorphism was genotyped by using a polymerase chain reaction assay. No significant difference of the distribution of the IL1A rs3783553 polymorphism was observed between PTC patients and controls. However, patients carrying the IL1A rs3783553 ins/ins genotype and ins allele had significantly decreased risks for developing T3 and T4 when compared with patients carrying the IL1A rs3783553 del/del genotype and del allele (ins/ins vs. del/del: OR = 0.22, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.09-0.54; ins vs. del: OR = 0.58, 95% CI, 0.41-0.83, respectively). These results suggest that the rs3783553 polymorphism may be used as a genetic marker to predict the size/extension of PTC.
