https://www.selleckchem.com/products/pkc-theta-inhibitor.html A recent genome-wide association study (GWAS) has posed STAT4 as a promising susceptibility gene for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the most significant variant in this GWAS, rs7574865, yielded inconsistent results. This study, in a Southern Chinese population, was aimed to clarify the roles in HCC incidence of the rs7574865 and other two potentially functional variants, rs897200 and rs1031507 in STAT4. This study enrolled 631 new HCC cases and 631 cancer-free controls. The genetic association was estimated using the multivariate logistic regression model. The pairwise gene-environment interactions were assessed using the multiplicative term in regression model and the "Delta" method for the additive scale. In the multivariate analysis, the rs7574865 TT genotype conferred a decreased risk of HCC compared to the GG genotype (adjusted OR = 0.62, 95%CI = 0.38∼0.99). The significant association of rs7574865 was also observed under the additive genetic model, with an adjusted OR of 0.81 (95%CI = 0.65∼0.99). Nevertheless, other two variants alone showed no significant association, as well as the haplotypes and genetic risk scores. Further analysis indicated a potential interaction between the rs897200 and alcohol drinking (P= 0.048 and 0.072 for additive and multiplicative interactions, respectively). Drinkers with the rs897200 CT+CC genotypes presented an increased disease-risk, as compared with non-drinkers carrying the TT genotype (adjusted OR = 1.68, 95%CI = 1.11∼2.54). The variant in STAT4, rs7574865, serves as a potential marker for predicting incidence of HCC. The rs897200 variant possibly interplays with alcohol drinking to alter HCC risk in the Southern Chinese, but warrants further investigation.
