Our meta-analysis indicated that TGF-β1 -509 C > T, +869 T > C, +915 G > C, and -800 G > A were not associated with risk of colorectal adenoma (OR = 0.89 for C carriers vs. TT for -509 C > T, 1.03 for C carriers vs. TT for +869 T > C, 1.09 for C carriers vs. GG for +915 G > C, and 1.19 for A carriers vs. GG for 800 G > A).
The high TGFB1 producer genotypes, -509TT and 10Pro/Pro, were associated with an increased risk of colorectal adenoma compared with other genotypes (OR = 1.51, 95% CI: 1.04-2.20 and OR = 1.37, 95% CI: 1.02-1.86, respectively).
