Gastric marginal zone lymphoma (GMZL) is strongly associated with Helicobacter pylori infection, which induces a chronic inflammatory response. Inflammation can result in DNA damage related to its severity, the cellular antioxidant capacity, and the integrity of DNA repair mechanisms. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) polymorphisms have been shown to be important mediators of inflammation, while glutathione S-transferase GST T1 and GST M1 polymorphisms are believed to affect cellular antioxidant capacity. We aimed to determine whether polymorphisms at the IL-1 and GST T1 and GST M1 loci modulate the risk of developing GMZL. Blood and biopsy samples were obtained for a historical series of 66 GMZL cases, whereas blood samples were available from 163 healthy controls. Genotypes were obtained for GST T1, GST M1, IL-1 RN, and IL-1B-31 using PCR-based techniques. H pylori infection was found in 86.0% of cases, whereas in the control population only 37.4% tested positive. The IL-1 RN 2/2 genotype was significantly associated with risk of GMZL (odds ratio [OR], 5.51; 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.16-14.07), but not the IL-1B-31 genotype. Likewise, the GST T1 null genotype was strongly associated with risk of GMZL (OR, 9.51; 95% CI 4.57-19.81), but not the GST M1 genotype. Evidence was found of effect modification between the IL-1 RN and GST T1 genotypes (P =.02). The combination of the IL-1 RN 2/2 and GST T1 null genotype was most strongly associated with risk of GMZL (OR, 32.29; 95% CI 6.92-150-63). These results support the hypothesis that the risk of developing GMZL is influenced by inter-individual variation in the cellular inflammatory immune responses to H pylori infection, and to antioxidative capacity.
