http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/17220333http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"There is reason to suspect that testicular germ cell tumor (TGCT) development may be influenced by cytokines, secreted proteins that modulate tumor immune surveillance activity as well as a variety of processes in the testis. To address this hypothesis, we conducted a case-control analysis (508 cases, 608 controls) of 32 putatively functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in 16 immune function genes among non-Hispanic Caucasian participants in the U.S. Servicemen's Testicular Tumor Environmental and Endocrine Determinants Study. The TGFB1 Ex5-73C>T variant was positively associated with TGCT (CT/TT versus CC: odds ratio, 1.73; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-2.95; P(trend) = 0.05); additionally, haplotypes of the assessed TGFB1 SNPs (-509C>T, 327C>T, Ex1-282C>G, and Ex5-73C>T) differed in frequency between cases and controls (all TGCT, P 0.07; seminoma, P 0.04; nonseminoma, P 0.11). We also observed excess frequencies among TGCT cases versus controls of LTA 252G (P(trend) = 0.08) and of the TNF variants -1042C (P(trend) = 0.06), -1036T (P(trend) = 0.07), and -238G (P(trend) = 0.09). Analyses of haplotypes for LTA-TNF SNPs (LTA -91C>A, LTA 252A>G, TNF -863C>A, TNF -857C>T, TNF -308G>A, and -238G>A) were similarly suggestive of an association with TGCT (P = 0.06) and nonseminoma (P = 0.04), but not seminoma (P = 0.21). Polymorphisms in other genes were found to be associated only with seminoma (IL2) or nonseminoma (IFNGR2 and IL10). However, none of the associations remained noteworthy after applying the false discovery rate method to control for multiple testing. In conclusion, our findings suggest that polymorphisms in TGFB1 and LTA/TNF, and possibly other immune function genes, may influence susceptibility to TGCT."xsd:string
