Furthermore, a Japanese boy with insulin resistance and acanthosis nigricans was found to be heterozygous for a mutation of the insulin receptor gene that resulted in the replacement of glycine-996 with valine in the ATP binding site of the receptor.
The ancestral T allele of single nucleotide polymorphism rs2963 or the corresponding haplotype (GGTC-C) showed association with PCOS with odds ratio 2.99, 95% confidence interval 1.4-6.3, independent of obesity but related to the presence of Acanthosis nigricans and insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, or hyperandrogeny, thus providing a frame for future fine mapping of the susceptibility loci in PCOS.
After adjustment for age and BMI, variants in luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor (LHCGR) (rs13405728), C9orf3 (rs4385527) and insulin receptor gene (INSR) (rs2059807) were strongly associated with OA (Padjust < 0.01, <0.001 and <0.05, respectively); rs4385527 in C9orf3 was strongly associated with HA (Padjust< 0.001); variants in the thyroid adenoma associated gene (THADA) (rs13429458 and rs12478601), DENN/MADD domain containing 1A (DENND1A)(rs10818854), and C9orf3 (rs4385527) were significantly associated with PCOM (Padjust < 0.01, <0.001, <0.05 and <0.001, respectively).

Six SNPs were associated with all-cause (CDKAL1-rs981042, P = 0.0032; HHEX-rs1111875, P = 0.0361; and INSR-rs919275, P = 0.0488) or BC-specific (CDKN2A/CDKN2B-rs3218020, P = 0.0225; CDKAL1-rs981042, P = 0.0246; and TCF2/HNF1B-rs3094508, P = 0.0344) mortality in additive genotype models, at α = 0.05.
These findings indicate that INSR rs2252673 and rs3745546 polymorphisms were associated with sensitivity to platinum-based chemotherapy in EOC patients and rs2252673 polymorphism may be an independent risk factor for EOC prognosis.

Polymorphisms affecting micro-RNA regulation and associated with the risk of dietary-related cancers: a review from the literature and new evidence for a functional role of rs17281995 (CD86) and rs1051690 (INSR), previously associated with colorectal cancer.
The associations of four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in IGF-I (rs6214), IGFBP-3 (rs3110697), INSR (rs1052371), and IRS2 (rs2289046) genes with the risk of CRC were evaluated using a case-control design with 167 CRC cases and 277 controls by the PCR-RFLP method.
In conclusion, to our knowledge, this study indicated for the first time that the INSR rs1799817 TT + CT genotype and CT genotype compared with the CC genotype had 1.86-fold and 2.18-fold increased risks for CRC among women, respectively.
