Abstract 461P
Background
Meta-analyses and cohort studies have shown blood trace mineral concentration may be associated with incidence risk of lung cancer. However, there is no comprehensive study to investigate causal relationship between blood trace mineral and lung cancer. The purpose of this study is to inspect the causal effect of blood trace mineral concentration on lung cancer with Mendelian randomization (MR) method.
Methods
With a two‐sample MR approach, we analyzed the summary data of zinc, selenium, copper from the Queensland Institute of Medical Research(QIMR, 2603 individuals) and The Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children (ALSPAC, 10115 individuals), data of calcium from discovery cohorts(39400 individuals) and replication cohorts(21875 individuals), data of iron from Genetics of Iron Status Consortium(23986 individuals), data of lung cancer patients from Consortium and International Lung Cancer Consortium (ILCCO, 11 348 lung cancer cases and 15 861 controls) to assess the possible causal relationship of blood trace mineral concentration on the risk of lung cancer.
Results
Our results indicated that genetically predicted higher blood copper level has a positive association with lung cancer, each per-unit increase in copper is associated with a 14% increase in the risk of lung cancer (odds ratio [OR]: 1.14, 95% CI = 1.01‐1.29; P = 0.04). Additionally, blood calcium, zinc, selenium, iron were not causal factors for lung cancer.
Conclusions
Genetically higher blood copper is positively associated with risk of lung cancer, and more work is needed to examine the potential mechanism.
