BACKGROUND Angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) gene plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cancers. The association between ACE insertion/deletion (I/D) polymorphism and the risk of various cancers has been studied. However, the results of these studies remain conflicting. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to evaluate the association between ACE I/D polymorphism and the risk of cancers. METHODS PubMed, Embase, ScienceDirect, Springer, CNKI, Wanfang, Weipu, CBM databases and Google Scholar were searched for case-control studies on ACE I/D polymorphism and the risk of cancers, published up to Dec 31, 2013. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the association between ACE I/D polymorphism and cancer risk. RESULTS Thirty-five published studies with 5007 cases and 8173 controls were included. Overall, there were no significant association between ACE I/D polymorphism and the risk of cancers (II vs. ID+DD OR = 1.05, 95% CI = 0.89-1.23, I vs. D OR = 1.00, 95% CI = 0.89-1.13). However, when stratified by ethnicity, we found a significant association between this polymorphism and cancer risk in Caucasians (II vs. ID+DD: OR = 1.43, 95% CI = 1.02-2.00, I vs. D: OR = 1.23, 95% CI 1.01-1.49). CONCLUSIONS ACE I/D polymorphism is associated with the cancer risk in Caucasians.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007703 Peptidyl-Dipeptidase A A peptidyl-dipeptidase that catalyzes the release of a C-terminal dipeptide, oligopeptide-|-Xaa-Yaa, when Xaa is not Pro, and Yaa is neither Asp nor Glu. Thus, conversion of ANGIOTENSIN I to ANGIOTENSIN II, with increase in vasoconstrictor activity, but no action on angiotensin II. It is also able to inactivate BRADYKININ, a potent vasodilator; and has a glycosidase activity which releases GPI-anchored proteins from the membrane by cleaving the mannose linkage in the GPI moiety.

D016009 Chi-Square Distribution A distribution in which a variable is distributed like the sum of the squares of any given independent random variable, each of which has a normal distribution with mean of zero and variance of one. The chi-square test is a statistical test based on comparison of a test statistic to a chi-square distribution. The oldest of these tests are used to detect whether two or more population distributions differ from one another.

D016017 Odds Ratio The ratio of two odds. The exposure-odds ratio for case control data is the ratio of the odds in favor of exposure among cases to the odds in favor of exposure among noncases. The disease-odds ratio for a cohort or cross section is the ratio of the odds in favor of disease among the exposed to the odds in favor of disease among the unexposed. The prevalence-odds ratio refers to an odds ratio derived cross-sectionally from studies of prevalent cases.
