Résumé
The elevated expression of interleukin-18 (IL-18) among lung cancer patients raised our curiosity to examine the role of IL-18 genotypes in lung cancer. IL-18 -656 (rs1946519), -607 (rs1946518), and -137 (rs187238) genotypes of 358 lung cancer cases and 716 controls were determined via the PCR-RFLP methodology. The distributions of genotypic and allelic frequencies of IL-18 -607, but not those of -656 or -137, were differentially distributed between cases and controls. IL-18 -607 AC and CC genotypes were both lower (45.8% and 16.2%) in lung cancer patients compared to controls (51.4% and 24.7%). In addition, IL-18 -607 AC and CC genotypes were of significantly lower percentages both among non-smokers and smokers. Otherwise, no differential distribution was found regarding IL-18 -656 or -137. IL-18 -607 C allele can serve as a protective predictor for lung cancer risk in Taiwanese.

OBJECTIVE
The elevated expression of interleukin-18 (IL-18) among lung cancer patients raised our curiosity to examine the role of IL-18 genotypes in lung cancer.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
METHODS
IL-18 -656 (rs1946519), -607 (rs1946518), and -137 (rs187238) genotypes of 358 lung cancer cases and 716 controls were determined via the PCR-RFLP methodology.
RESULTS
RESULTS
The distributions of genotypic and allelic frequencies of IL-18 -607, but not those of -656 or -137, were differentially distributed between cases and controls. IL-18 -607 AC and CC genotypes were both lower (45.8% and 16.2%) in lung cancer patients compared to controls (51.4% and 24.7%). In addition, IL-18 -607 AC and CC genotypes were of significantly lower percentages both among non-smokers and smokers. Otherwise, no differential distribution was found regarding IL-18 -656 or -137.
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSIONS
IL-18 -607 C allele can serve as a protective predictor for lung cancer risk in Taiwanese.
