BackgroundOur study aimed to explore the potential association of CYP4F2 gene polymorphisms with lung cancer (LC) risk.MethodsThe five variants in CYP4F2 were genotyped using Agena MassARRAY in 507 cases and 505 controls. Genetic models and haplotypes based on logistic regression analysis were used to evaluate the potential association between CYP4F2 polymorphisms and LC susceptibility.ResultsThis study observed that rs12459936 was linked to an increased risk of LC in no-smoking participants (allele: OR = 1.38, p = 0.035; homozygote: OR = 2.00, p = 0.035; additive: OR = 1.40, p = 0.034) and females (allele: OR = 1.64, p = 0.002; homozygote: OR = 2.57, p = 0.006; heterozygous: OR = 2.56, p = 0.001; dominant: OR = 2.56, p < 0.002; additive: OR = 1.67, p = 0.002). Adversely, there was a significantly decreased LC risk for rs3093110 in no-smoking participants (heterozygous: OR = 0.56, p = 0.027; dominant: OR = 0.58, p = 0.035), rs3093193 (allele: OR = 0.66, p = 0.016; homozygote: OR = 0.33, p = 0.011; recessive: OR = 0.38, p = 0.021; additive: OR = 0.64, p = 0.014), rs3093144 (recessive: OR = 0.20, p = 0.045), and rs3093110 (allele: OR = 0.54, p = 0.010; heterozygous: OR = 0.50, p = 0.014; dominant: OR = 0.49, p = 0.010; additive: OR = 0.54, p = 0.011) in females.ConclusionsThe study demonstrated that CYP4F2 variants were associated with LC susceptibility, with evidence suggesting that this connection may be affected by gender and smoking status.
