Article Abstract
Introduction: The association between IL-16 rs1131445 polymorphism and cancer risk is not consistent or even contradictory, this meta-analysis aims to investigate the role of IL-16 gene rs1131445 polymorphisms in the risk of cancer.
Evidence Acquisition: A comprehensive online search was conducted in PubMed, EMBASE and CNKI databases to identify eligible studies. The case-control studies related IL-16 rs1131445 C/T polymorphism with the cancer susceptibility were selected according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. After extracting the basic data information and quality of literature evaluation, the meta-analysis was performed by using STATA 12.0 software, with calculating odds ratio and 95% confidence interval, and further subgroup analysis, literature publication bias test and sensitivity analysis.
Evidence Synthesis: There are totally 1677 cases and 1989 non-tumor controls finally involved. Meta-analysis showed that there are statistical correlations between the IL-16 rs1131445 C/T polymorphism and the cancer risk in Asian populations (TS vs. C, OR=0.80, 95%CI: 0.73-0.88; TT vs. TC, OR=0.75, 95%CI: 0.65-0.87; TT vs. CC, OR=0.69, 95% CI: 0.56-0.84; CC+TC vs. TT, OR=1.36, 95%CI: 1.19-1.55; CC vs. TC+TT, OR=1.27, 95%CI: 1.05-1.53) (all P<0.05).
Conclusions: IL-16 rs1131445 C/T polymorphism is related to the susceptibility to cancer in Asians, suggesting that the C allelic gene of rs1131445 is significantly associated with an increasing cancer risk.

Background: Cervical cancer (CC) is the fourth most common cancer diagnosis in women worldwide. Infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is a critical but not determinative condition for CC development, as several co-factors modulate the progression of HPV-associated cervical lesions. Interleukin-8 (IL-8) and Interleukin-16 (IL-16) are chemokine-like interleukins involved in the pathogenesis of various cancers.

Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most prevalent form of cardiovascular disease. A growing body of research shows that interleukins (ILs), such as IL-8, IL-18 and IL-16, elicit pro-inflammatory responses and may play critical roles in the pathologic process of CAD. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), capable of generating functional modifications in IL genes, appear to be associated with CAD risk.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the IL-16 gene have been reported to influence the risk of several cancers, but their role in ovarian cancer (OC) has not been studied. Using the restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method, we examined four IL-16 SNPs: rs11556218 (T > G), rs4778889 (T > C), rs4072111 (C > T), and rs1131445 (T > C) in blood samples from 413 women of Central European descent, including 200 OC patients and 213 healthy controls. Among the patients, 62% were postmenopausal, 84.

Introduction: /objectives. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located at the 3'-UTR region of the target genes of microRNAs (miRNAs) can dysregulate their expression via disrupting the binding site of miRNAs. Interleukin-16 (IL-16) is involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).

Introduction: Interleukin-16 (IL-16) is a chemotactic cytokine that is found to increase in Cancer and cardiovascular diseases (CVD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in were associated with diseases. Thus, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to evaluate possible associations between rs4778889, rs11556218, rs4072111, and rs1131445 SNPs and the risk for cancer or CVD.
