The aim was to investigate potential interactions between meat intake, NSAID use, and gene variants in fatty acid metabolism and NSAID pathways in relation to the risk of CRC. A nested case-cohort study of 1038 CRC cases and 1857 randomly selected participants from the Danish prospective \u201cDiet, Cancer and Health\u201d study encompassing 57,053 persons was performed using the Cox proportional hazard model. Gene variants in SLC25A20, PRKAB1, LPCAT1, PLA2G4A, ALOX5, PTGER3, TP53, CCAT2, TCF7L2, and BCL2 were investigated. CCAT2 rs6983267 was associated with the risk of CRC per se (p &lt; 0.01). Statistically significant interactions were found between intake of red and processed meat and CCAT2 rs6983267, TP53 rs1042522, LPCAT1 rs7737692, SLC25A20 rs7623023 (pinteraction = 0.04, 0.04, 0.02, 0.03, respectively), and the use of NSAID and alcohol intake and TP53 rs1042522 (pinteraction = 0.04, 0.04, respectively) in relation to the risk of CRC. No other consistent associations or interactions were found. This study replicated an association of CCAT2 rs6983267 with CRC and an interaction between TP53 rs1042522 and NSAID in relation to CRC. Interactions between genetic variants in fatty acid metabolism and NSAID pathways and the intake of red and processed meat were found. Our results suggest that meat intake and NSAID use affect the same carcinogenic mechanisms. All new findings should be sought replicated in independent prospective studies. Future studies on the cancer-protective effects of aspirin\/NSAID should include gene and meat assessments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijms20051121","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,5]],"date-time":"2019-03-05T11:19:50Z","timestamp":1551784790000},"page":"1121","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["Intake of Red and Processed Meat, Use of Non-Steroid Anti-Inflammatory Drugs, Genetic Variants and Risk of Colorectal Cancer: A Prospective Study of the Danish \u201cDiet, Cancer and Health\u201d Cohort"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0127-2863","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Vibeke","family":"Andersen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Focused Research Unit for Molecular Diagnostic and Clinical Research, Institute of Regional Health Research-Center S\u00f8nderjylland, Hospital of Southern Jutland, 6200 Aabenraa, Denmark"},{"name":"Institute of Molecular Medicine, University of Southern Denmark, 5000 Odense, Denmark"},{"name":"Institute of Regional Health Research, University of Southern Denmark, 5000 Odense, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ulrich","family":"Halekoh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Public Health, Unit of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, University of Southern Denmark, 5000 Odense, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4385-2097","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anne","family":"Tj\u00f8nneland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Danish Cancer Society Research Center, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ulla","family":"Vogel","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Research Centre for the Working Environment, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3729-4420","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tine Iskov","family":"Kopp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Danish Cancer Society Research Center, 2100 Copenhagen, Denmark"},{"name":"The Danish Multiple Sclerosis Registry, Department of Neurology, Copenhagen University Hospital, Rigshospitalet, 2200 Copenhagen, Denmark"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,3,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"World Cancer Research Fund\/American Institute for Cancer Research (2019, March 02).
