Abstract

Background : The paraoxonase enzyme plays a significant role in the detoxification of various organophosphorous compounds in mammals, and paraoxonase (PON) 1 is one of the endogenous free-radical scavenging systems in the human body. In this study, we investigated the interaction between cigarette smoking and the genetic polymorphism of PON1 with lung cancer in Korean males. Methods : Three hundred thirty five patients with lung cancer and an equal number of age-matched controls were enrolled in this study. Every subject was asked to complete a questionnaire concerning their smoking habits and alcohol drinking habits. A 5' exonuclease assay (TaqMan) was used to genotype the PON1 Q192R polymorphism. The effects of smoking habits and drinking habits, the PON1 Q192R polymorphism and their interactions were statistically analyzed. Results : Cigarette smoking and the Q/Q genotype of PON1 were significant risk factors for lung cancer. Individuals carrying the Q/Q genotype of PON1 were at a higher risk for lung cancer as compared with those individuals carrying the Q/R or R/R genotype (odds ratio, 2.84; 95% confidence interval, 1.69 - 4.79). When the groups were further stratified by the smoking status, the Q/Q PON1 was associated with lung cancer among the current or ex-smokers (odds ratio, 2.56; 95% confidence interval, 1.52 - 4.31). Current smokers or ex-smokers who had the Q/Q genotype showed an elevated risk for lung cancer (odds ratio: 15.50, 95% confidence interval: 6.76 - 35.54) as compared with the group of subjects who never smoked, and had the Q/R or R/R genotype. The odds ratios (95% confidence interval) of smokers with the PON1 Q/Q type compared to the nonsmokers with the PON1 Q/R or R/R type were 53.77 (6.55 - 441.14) for squamous cell carcinoma, 6.25 (1.38 - 28.32) for adenocarcinoma, and 59.94 (4.66 - 770.39) for small cell carcinoma, and these results were statistically significant. Conclusion : These results suggest that cigarette smoking and the PON1 Q/Q genotype are risk factors for lung cancer. The combination of cigarette smoking and the PON1 Q/Q genotype significantly increased the lung cancer risk irrespective of the histologic type of cancer.

연구배경 : Paraoxonase는 산소유리기 제거효소의 하나로서, 유기인제 화합물의 독소제거에 있어서 중요한 역할을 한다. 본 연구에서는 한국인 남성에서 PON1 Q192R 유전자 다형성이 흡연과 관련하여 폐암발생에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 연구대상자는 조직 병리학적으로 폐암으로 새롭게 진단받은 남성 환자 335명과, 이들과 3세 이내에서 연령을 짝지은 동수의 대조군으로 하였다. 직접면접조사를 통하여 인적사항과 직업력 그리고 흡연력, 음주력 등을 조사하였다. TaqMan 실시간 중합 효소 연쇄반응을 이용하여 PON1 유전자 다형성을 확인하고, 폐암과 흡연 그리고 PON1 유전자 다형성 유형 사이의 상호 관련성을 통계적으로 분석하였다. 결 과 : 흡연과 PON1 유전자 Q/Q형이 폐암 발생 위험도를 유의하게 증가시켰다. 흡연자에서 PON1 Q/Q형인 사람이 Q/R 혹은 R/R형인 사람에 비하여 폐암에 대한 교차비(95% 신뢰구간)가 2.56(1.52 - 4.31)으로 폐암발생 위험도가 통계적으로 유의하게 증가하였다. 비흡연자이며 PON1 Q/R 혹은 R/R형인 사람을 비교군으로 하였을 때, 비흡연자이며 PON1 Q/Q형인 군, 흡연자이며 Q/R 혹은 R/R형인 군, 흡연자이며 Q/Q형군으로 이행할수록 대응비는 모든 세포유형에서 유의하게 증가하였다. 특히 흡연자이며 Q/Q형인 사람은 비흡연자이며 PON1 Q/R 혹은 R/R형인 사람에 비하여, 편평세포암종은 53.77(6.55 - 441.14)배, 선암종은 6.25(1.38 - 28.32)배, 소세포암종은 59.94(4.66 - 770.39) 배 더 잘 생기는 것으로 나타났다. 결 론 : 흡연과 PON1 Q/Q형은 폐암의 위험인자이며, 흡연과 PON1 Q/Q형은 조직학적 유형에 관계없이 폐암발생 위험도를 서로 상승적으로 증가시키는 것으로 판단된다.
