Chi(2) Testing found that the combined frequency of R702W, G908R, and 1007fs was significantly elevated in colorectal cancer patients compared with controls (P = 0.001; odds ratio, 2.8; 95% confidence interval, 1.5-5.4), but no association was detected between tumor behavior or age of disease onset and CARD15 mutations in our colorectal cancer cohort.
The analysis of the material does not allow presenting a conclusive answer as to whether the 1007fs, G908R, and R702W mutations or P268S polymorphism contribute to the development of sporadic colorectal cancer in the Polish population.
Three common NOD2 mutations -- 3020insC, G908R and R702W -- have been shown to be associated with chronic inflammatory disease such as Crohn's disease, the 3020insC also with human malignancy colorectal cancer.
