As TNFA triggers a cytokine cascade, the modifying effect of the TNFA rs1799724 genotypes on the association of any of the remaining polymorphisms with lung cancer risk was also examined.
Also, a significant increase in the risk of CP was observed to be associated with the interactions of TNF-α rs1799724 and MTHFR rs9651118 (OR 2.75, 95 % CI 1.23-6.13).

However, subtype-specific associations were observed for gastric cardia adenocarcinomas at MUC1/TRIM46/1q22 rs2070803 [HRAA versus GA+GG = 2.16; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.24-3.78; P = 0.0068] and LTA/TNF/6p21.33 rs1799724 (HRTT+CT versus CC = 1.30; 95% CI = 1.07-1.57; P = 0.0077), and for diffuse-type GC at PSCA/8q24.3 rs2294008 (HRTT versus CT+CC = 1.99; 95% CI = 1.33-2.97; P = 7.8E-04).
Among premenopausal AA women, comparing variant allele carriers to non-carriers, reduced breast cancer risk was associated with CXCL5-rs425535 (OR=0.61, P=0.02), while among EA women, there were associations with TNFA-rs1799724 (OR =2.31, P =0.002) and CRP-rs1205 (OR=0.54, P=0.01).
Haplotyping analysis revealed a significant overrepresentation of an rs1799724-T/rs1800629-G haplotype in AD (P=0.012; OR, 1.60; 95% CI, 1.11-2.29), although to a lesser degree than rs1799724-T alone.
Among premenopausal AA women, comparing variant allele carriers to non-carriers, reduced breast cancer risk was associated with CXCL5-rs425535 (OR=0.61, P=0.02), while among EA women, there were associations with TNFA-rs1799724 (OR =2.31, P =0.002) and CRP-rs1205 (OR=0.54, P=0.01).
In addition, two SNPs, rs243847 (P = 0.00086) and rs243865 (P = 0.00090), on matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP2) gene and one SNP rs1799724 (P = 0.0026) on tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) gene, are marginally associated with IA in male- and female-specific manner, respectively.
In a case-control study, the -238G>A (rs361525), -308G>A (rs1800629), and -857C>T (rs1799724) polymorphisms of the TNF gene were genotyped in 745 outpatients with type 2 diabetes, including 331 subjects without DR, 246 with nonproliferative DR (NPDR), and 168 with proliferative DR (PDR).
No TNF SNP was associated with prostate cancer risk in PLCO (P-trend > or = 0.16), while in the Nutrition Cohort, associations were significant for 2 highly correlated variants (rs1799724, 1800610, r2 = 0.95; P-trend = 0.04 and 0.02, respectively).
In a case-control study, the -238G>A (rs361525), -308G>A (rs1800629), and -857C>T (rs1799724) polymorphisms of the TNF gene were genotyped in 745 outpatients with type 2 diabetes, including 331 subjects without DR, 246 with nonproliferative DR (NPDR), and 168 with proliferative DR (PDR).
Our aim was to study the role of TNF-α in the pathogenesis of IR and Ob in PCOS, as well as a C850T (rs1799724) polymorphism in the promoter region of the TNF-α gene, in a group of 204 PCOS patients and 204 age-matched healthy controls.
The frequency of rs1799964 'C/C' genotype of the TNF gene was found to be significantly higher in all patient groups compared to HCs [HCs vs. DEN, P=0.0054, Pc=0.0162, OR 3.57; HCs vs. DF, P=0.036, OR 2.89; HCs vs. DHF, P=0.0088, Pc=0.0240, OR 5.11].
Susceptibility to TB-IRD associated with carriage of TNFA-1031*T (rs1799964; P=0.05) and SLC11A1 D543N*G (rs17235409; P=0.04) in Cambodian patients and carriage of IL18-607*G (rs1946518; P=0.02) and VDR FokI (F/f)*T (rs10735810; P=0.05) in Indian patients.
In order to investigate the role of rs1800629 and rs1799964 polymorphisms in relation to anthropometric measures, family history of complex diseases, diet and clinical features, we performed a case control study in PCOS women from South India.
Under recessive genetic model (C/C vs. T/T+T/C), the TNF rs1799964 C/C genotype was significantly associated with DEN [P=0.014, OR with 95% CI 3.07 (1.18-7.98)].
We examined a possible association of three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF) promoter -1031T>C (rs1799964), -863C>A (rs1800630), and -857C>T (rs1799724) with severe malaria in 466 adult patients having Plasmodium falciparum malaria in northwest Thailand.
