Abstract

Monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) is involved in the pathogenesis of chronic kidney diseases (CKD). MCP-1 2518 A>G gene polymorphism is associated with MCP-1 status. We performed a meta-analysis to assess the association between MCP-1 2518 A>G gene polymorphism and CKD risk. The eligible studies regarding the relationship between MCP-1 2518 A>G gene polymorphism and CKD risk were searched through electronic databases. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) and its 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by using a fixed-effects model, or in the presence of heterogeneity, a random-effects model. A total of 2415 cases and 2011 controls were recruited in our investigation. A allele/GG genotype was not associated with CKD risk in overall populations, Asians, Caucasians, and Africans. AA/AG genotype was not associated with the risk of CKD in overall populations, Asians, Caucasians, and Africans. AA genotype was associated with a lower risk of CKD in Caucasians (OR 0.816, 95% CI 0.703–0.947). AG genotype was associated with a higher risk of CKD in Caucasians (OR 1.230, 95% CI 1.042–1.452). There was no marked publication bias. In conclusion, AA genotype may be a protective factor against CKD susceptibility in Caucasians. AG genotype may be a risk factor for CKD risk in Caucasians. However, more studies are needed in the future.
