Bladder cancer SNP panel predicts susceptibility and survival
Open accessAbstract
Bladder cancer is the fourth most common malignancy in men and the eighth most common in women in western countries. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes that regulate telomere maintenance, mitosis, inflammation, and apoptosis have not been assessed extensively for this disease. Using a population-based study with 832 bladder cancer cases and 1,191 controls, we assessed genetic variation in relation to cancer susceptibility or survival. Findings included an increased risk associated with variants in the methyl-metabolism gene, MTHFD2 (OR 1.7 95% CI 1.3-2.3), the telomerase TEP1 (OR 1.8 95% CI 1.2-2.6) and decreased risk associated with the inflammatory response gene variant IL8RB (OR 0.6 95% CI 0.5-0.9) compared to wild-type. Shorter survival was associated with apoptotic gene variants, including CASP9 (HR 1.8 95% CI 1.1-3.0). Variants in the detoxification gene EPHX1 experienced longer survival (HR 0.4 (95% CI 0.2-0.8). These genes can now be assessed in multiple study populations to identify and validate SNPs appropriate for clinical use.

Common variations of SLC23A2 are linked to increased risk of bladder cancer.
“Common variations of SLC23A2 were linked to increased or decreased risk of gastric cancer depending on a discrete genotype [85,90], decreased risk of colorectal adenocarcinoma [91], HPV16-positive head and neck cancer [92], increased risk of bladder cancer [93], non-Hodgkin lymphoma [87], chronic lymphocytic leukemia [94], preterm delivery [84], open-angle glaucoma [95], and acute coronary syndrom”
From Vitamin C-Sources, Physiological Role, Kinetics, Deficiency, Use, Toxicity, and Determination (2021) · cites this paper as [93]
The Results (Risk models; page unavailable) link an SLC23A2 variant to increased bladder cancer risk as part of a multi-gene high-risk combination. They also state that SLC23A2_31 did not show a significant individual association after adjustment, so the source does not support an unqualified link between SLC23A2 variation alone and increased risk.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
