Introduction. LAMA1, also known as laminin subunit α1, is a member of the laminin family, which is widely reported to be a key basement membrane molecule that affects various biological activities and is associated with many kinds of diseases. We aimed to investigate the association between LAMA1single-nucleotide polymorphisms and the occurrence and progression of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma in the Chinese population. Method. 2,186 participants were collected retrospectively between October 2008 and January 2017, including 1,043 ESCC patients and 1,143 noncancer patients. A 2 mL blood sample was obtained intravenously for the LDR for SNP analysis. The 6 SNP loci of LAMA1 were selected and examined. We analyzed the association of several genetic models of 6 LAMA1 SNP loci, sex, age, smoking and drinking status, and the occurrence of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Results. In the rs62081531 G > A locus, genotype GA was a protective factor for ESCC compared with GG (OR: 0.830, P = 0.046), especially among the younger and nondrinkers. At rs607230 T > C, genotype TC was linked with a lower risk of ESCC compared with TT. (OR: 0.613, P = 0.034). Haplotype Frequencies revealed that Ars62081531Grs621993Ars539713Trs566655Ars73938538Crs607230 (OR: 0.803, P = 0.028) and Grs62081531Grs621993Ars539713Trs566655Crs73938538Crs607230 (OR: 0.679, P = 0.010) were strongly associated with lower susceptibility of ESCC. Conclusion. The LAMA1 rs62081531, rs539713, rs566655, and rs607230 polymorphisms were demonstrated to be related to susceptibility to ESCC in the Chinese population. LAMA1 SNPs may have a significant impact on the occurrence of esophageal cancer and may serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
