Rs5275

rs5275, also known as exon1-+837T>C, is a SNP in the PTGS2 gene.

A study of 635 Caucasian bladder cancer patients found a reduced risk associated with the minor (C) allele of rs5275, (odds ratio 0.68, CI: 0.54-0.87, p=0.002, remaining significant after multiple comparison adjustment).

(T;T) genotype of PTGS2 8473T>C (rs5275) was significantly correlated with a better survival when compared to the combined T/C and C/C genotype (Hazard ratio [HR] = 0.47; P value = 0.046 and HR = 0.16; P = 0.013, respectively) in colorectal cancer
