Abstract
Polymorphisms of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) in hormone metabolism pathways might cause metabolic disturbances and contribute to the development of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and ovarian cancer, but the published studies were inconsistent. The aim of this study was to evaluate the MTHFR C677T (rs1801133) and A1298C (rs1801131) gene polymorphisms in the risk of PCOS and ovarian cancer by meta-analysis. A comprehensive electronic search was conducted in databases for studies published from 1995 to 2020. The pooled ORs were calculated by Revman 5.2 software. Twenty-nine articles including 45 case-control studies were included. We found that MTHFR C677T polymorphisms were correlated with elevated PCOS risk (TT vs. CT+CC: OR=1.41, 95%CI=1.20-1.67; TT+CT vs. CC: OR=1.54, 95%CI=1.07-2.22; CT vs. CC+TT: OR=1.18, 95%CI-1.04-1.33; TT vs. CC: OR=1.47, 95%CI=1.03-2.11; T vs. C: OR=1.25, 95%CI=1.06-1.47), which were more obvious in Middle Eastern subgroup. MTHFR A1298C polymorphisms were also associated with overall PCOS susceptibility (CC vs. AC+AA: OR=2.55, 95%=1.61-4.03; CC+AC vs. AA: OR=1.84, 95%CI=1.04-3.28; CC vs. AA: OR=2.66, 95%CI=1.68-4.22; C vs. A: OR=1.67, 95%CI=1.03-2.71), which were mainly reflected in Asian subjects. For ovarian cancer, MTHFR C677T polymorphisms were only related with elevated ovarian cancer risk in Asian population, while no significant association was found for A1298C polymorphisms. This meta-analysis suggested that MTHFR C677T and MTHFR A1298C polymorphisms were correlated with elevated PCOS risk. MTHFR C667T only posed a higher risk for ovarian cancer in Asians instead of other populations, while MTHFR A1298C polymorphisms were not related to ovarian cancer risk. Further studies are needed to validate the conclusion.
