The single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) of some genes were found associated with pain perception. This study aimed to examine the association of the genotypes of ABCB1 C3435 T,OPRM1 A118 G and COMT V108/158M(valine 108/158 methionine) with pain perception in cancer patients. We genotyped 146 cancer pain patients and 139 cancer patients without pain for ABCB1 C3435T(rs1045642),OPRM1 A118G(rs1799971) and COMT V108/158M(rs4680) by the fluorescent dye-terminator cycle sequencing method,and compared the genotype distribution between groups with different pain intensities by chi-square test and pain scores between groups with different genotypes by non-parametric test. The results showed that in these cancer patients,the frequency of variant T allele of ABCB1 C3435 T was 40.5%; that of G allele of OPRM1 A118 G was 38.5% and that of A allele of COMT V108/158 M was 23.3%. No significant difference in the genotype distribution of ABCB1 C3435T(rs1045642) and OPRM1 A118G(rs1799971) was observed between cancer pain group and control group(P=0.364 and 0.578); however,significant difference occurred in the genotype distribution of COMT V108/158M(rs4680) between the two groups(P=0.001). And the difference could not be explained by any other confounding factors. Moreover,we found that the genotypes of COMT V108/158 M and ABCB1 C3435 T were associated with the intensities of pain in cancer patients. In conclusion,our results indicate that the SNPs of COMT V108/158 M and ABCB1 C3435 T significantly influence the pain perception in Chinese cancer patients.展开更多
