%X The association between angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AGTR1) gene A1166C polymorphism and cancer risk has been investigated in many studies. However, the results have been inconclusive. A meta-analysis was performed to obtain a more precise estimation of the relationship. The PubMed and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases were searched for published literature. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strengths of association. Ten studies, including 1553 patients and 1904 controls, were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, there were no significant associations between the AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism and cancer risk in the general population (CC vs AA: OR = 1.09, 95% CI = 0.50¨C2.37; AC vs AA: OR = 1.54, 95% CI = 0.81¨C2.91; dominant model: OR = 1.46, 95% CI = 0.77¨C2.79; recessive model: OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 0.84¨C1.49). In a subgroup analysis by nationality and cancer type, the results also showed no association between this polymorphism and cancer risk. This meta-analysis demonstrated that the AGTR1 gene A1166C polymorphism does not appear to be related to the risk of cancer
