To investigate the association between PvuII (rs2234693), XbaI (rs9340799) and P325P (rs1801132) polymorphisms of ESR1 gene with the risk of breast cancer under different population categorizations, we searched multiple databases for data collection, and performed the meta-analysis on a total of 25 case-control studies.
However, the haplogenotypes CTAG and CCGG of rs2234693 and rs9340799 polymorphisms could contribute significantly to the susceptibility of risk in BC positive at miscarriage and tobacco consumption in this sample population.
The C allele of the rs3798577:T>C variant was associated with decreasedBC risk in Asians (OR = 0.828, 95% CI: 0.730-0.939), while Caucasians with this allele were found to experience significantly increased BC risk (OR = 1.551, 95% CI: 1.037-2.321).
This study provides evidence that polymorphisms CYP17 rs743572, CYP19 rs10046 and ER-alpha rs3798577 are associated with breast cancer risk among Chinese women.
Polymorphisms in ESR1 (rs3798577) and IL6 (rs1800795 and rs1800797) were evaluated by real-time PCR in 391 breast cancer patients and 79 healthy controls.
The genotypes CC and CT of rs3798577 were significantly associated with the cancers risk (p-trend breast = 4 × 10(-5); p-trend cancers = 1 × 10(-5)); in discrepancy with breast cancer where the C-allele represented the risk allele, for bladder, hepatocellular carcinomas and leukemia, the T allele seems to confer susceptibility.
Our results showed that rs3798577 was significantly associated with the risk of breast cancer, the common allele C conferring susceptibility (p-trend=4 x 10(-5)); rs3798577 was also correlated with PR expression (p=0.01), but not with ER expression; rs2228480 (p=0.047) and rs1801132 (p=0.02) were associated with the age at diagnosis; rs1801132 was correlated with hypercholesterolemia (p=0.003) and increased BMI (body mass index) (p=0.01); rs2234693 showed a low significant association (p=0.042) with the tumor grade; rs3798577 was correlated with disease-free survival (p=0.05), allele C conferring increased risk for relapses, but it reached not statistical significance after adjustments.
To investigate the association between PvuII (rs2234693), XbaI (rs9340799) and P325P (rs1801132) polymorphisms of ESR1 gene with the risk of breast cancer under different population categorizations, we searched multiple databases for data collection, and performed the meta-analysis on a total of 25 case-control studies.
Variant genotypes of the rs1801132 polymorphism were also associated with a decreased breast cancer risk in a dominant model in 5,649 cases and 6,856 controls (GG/GC vs. CC: OR, 0.92, 95% CI, 0.85-0.99).
Four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in three genes were genotyped by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry [CCND1 Ex4-1G>A (rs9344), CDK7 Ex2-28C>T (rs2972388), ESR1 P325P Ex4-122G>C (rs1801132), and ESR1 T594T Ex8+229G>A (rs2228480)], and their associations with breast cancer risk were assessed.
Our results showed that rs3798577 was significantly associated with the risk of breast cancer, the common allele C conferring susceptibility (p-trend=4 x 10(-5)); rs3798577 was also correlated with PR expression (p=0.01), but not with ER expression; rs2228480 (p=0.047) and rs1801132 (p=0.02) were associated with the age at diagnosis; rs1801132 was correlated with hypercholesterolemia (p=0.003) and increased BMI (body mass index) (p=0.01); rs2234693 showed a low significant association (p=0.042) with the tumor grade; rs3798577 was correlated with disease-free survival (p=0.05), allele C conferring increased risk for relapses, but it reached not statistical significance after adjustments.
In this study, we investigated breast cancer risk associated with genotypes and haplotypes resulting from four ESR1 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs746432, rs2234693, rs9340799, and rs1801132.
Four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in three genes were genotyped by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry [CCND1 Ex4-1G>A (rs9344), CDK7 Ex2-28C>T (rs2972388), ESR1 P325P Ex4-122G>C (rs1801132), and ESR1 T594T Ex8+229G>A (rs2228480)], and their associations with breast cancer risk were assessed.
Since the identification of several potentially functional polymorphisms in ESR1 (rs2234693, rs9340799, rs1801132, rs3798577, rs2228480), molecular epidemiological studies were conducted in recent years to evaluate the association between polymorphisms and breast cancer risk in diverse populations.
Our results showed that rs3798577 was significantly associated with the risk of breast cancer, the common allele C conferring susceptibility (p-trend=4 x 10(-5)); rs3798577 was also correlated with PR expression (p=0.01), but not with ER expression; rs2228480 (p=0.047) and rs1801132 (p=0.02) were associated with the age at diagnosis; rs1801132 was correlated with hypercholesterolemia (p=0.003) and increased BMI (body mass index) (p=0.01); rs2234693 showed a low significant association (p=0.042) with the tumor grade; rs3798577 was correlated with disease-free survival (p=0.05), allele C conferring increased risk for relapses, but it reached not statistical significance after adjustments.
Breast cancer risk was significantly associated with three SNPs located at 6q25.1-rs9383935 in CCDC170 and rs2228480 and rs3798758 in ESR1-with variant allele attributed odds ratios (ORs) of 1.38 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.20 to 1.57, P=2.21×10(-6)), 0.84 (95% CI: 0.72 to 0.98, P=0.025) and 1.19 (95% CI: 1.04 to 1.37, P=0.013), respectively.
ESR1 A908G mutation-positive breast cancer was significantly associated with a first-degree family history of breast cancer (odds ratio [OR] = 2.69, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.15 to 6.28), whereas mutation-negative breast cancer was not.
The A908G (Lys303-->Arg) change in the gene encoding oestrogen receptor-alpha (ER-alpha) creates a hypersensitivity to oestradiol and would have significant consequences if present in breast carcinoma, especially those treated with endocrine therapy.
This population-based study, the largest so far to screen for the ER-alpha A908G mutation in breast cancer, confirms the presence of the mutant in invasive breast tumors.
In the > 13-year-old group, the AA genotype at rs1062577, the GG genotype at rs2881766, and the CC genotype at rs9479118 increased breast cancersusceptibility.
Our study suggests that polymorphisms rs2881766 and rs3020449 in estrogen receptor genes were associated with BC susceptibility as well as clinical features in Chinese women.
After adjusting for age, body mass index, parity, and menopausal status, we found that in our cohort of 865 Malaysian Chinese, three SNPs in the 6q25.1 region near ESR1 (rs2046210, rs12173570, and rs10484919) that were associated with mammographic density, breast cancer risk, or breast size in previous GWAS were significantly associated with both percentage density and absolute dense area.
