Our observations, demonstrating the increased efficiency of D327N SHBG in counteracting estradiol action and a significantly higher frequency of Asp327Asn polymorphism in women not developing breast cancer after estrogen exposure, first provide evidence for the mechanism of D327N SHBG protective action.
Implications of gene-environment interaction in studies of gene variants in breast cancer: an example of dietary isoflavones and the D356N polymorphism in the sex hormone-binding globulin gene.

Plasma SHBG concentration was related to PCOS status, non-SHBG-bound testosterone, BMI, fasting blood glucose level, fasting insulinemia, and D327N allele v. The v allele was associated with higher SHBG levels [36.9 +/- 15.9 nmol/liter for W/v (n = 52) and 43.5 +/- 3.5 nmol/liter for v/v (n = 2)] than was the wild-type W allele [31.1 +/- 16.1 nmol/liter (n = 249); P = 0.039].
The D327N mutation of human SHBG is associated with a number of good prognostic factors in breast cancer like estrogen receptor positivity and erb2 negativity.

Single-nucleotide polymorphism, rs1799941 in the Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin (SHBG) gene, related to both serum testosterone and SHBG levels and the risk of myocardial infarction, type 2 diabetes, cancer and mortality in men: the Tromsø Study.
Although SHBG SNPs associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus do not appear to be associated with PCOS status, rs1799941 and rs727428 genotypes are associated with SHBG levels independent of the effects of insulin resistance and obesity.
The SHBG SNP rs1799941 was associated with type 2 diabetes [odds ratio (OR) 0.94, 95% CI: 0.91, 0.97; P = 2 x 10(-5)], with the SHBG raising allele associated with reduced risk of type 2 diabetes.
Also, genotype frequencies, allele frequency, and haplotype were all analyzed in both groups.There were statistical differences in A allele frequency (P = .017) and GA genotype frequency (P = .016) of SHBG gene rs6259 locus and in CC genotype frequency of SHBG gene rs727428 locus (P = .034) between the 2 groups.Male infertility is associated with GA genotype and A allele of rs6259 locus, as well as CC genotype of rs727428 locus in SHBG gene.
Association of the (TAAAA)n repeat and Asp327Asn polymorphisms in the sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) gene with idiopathic male infertility and relation to serum SHBG concentrations.
We found that the Asp(327)Asn (rs6259) polymorphism was associated with decreased risk of endometrial cancer, particularly among postmenopausal women (OR = 0.79, 95% CI = 0.62-1.00).

Patients with high Hcy and MTHFR 667CC, as well as those with low Hcy and 667CT+TT, showed lower odds of uncontrolled SBP (MTHFR 667CC+ high Hcy: OR: 0.338, 95% CI: 0.115-0.996, Pcombined = 0.049; MTHFR 667CT/TT+ low Hcy: OR: 0.421, 95% CI: 0.193-0.921, Pcombined = 0.030) compared to patients with low Hcy and MTHFR 667CC.<b>Conclusions</b>: Serum Hcy status and Hcy metabolism gene polymorphisms (MTHFR C667T and MTRR A66G) may have synergistic effects on the prevalence of HTN and dyslipidemia.

We investigated the role of 2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (rs6258 and rs12150660) in the sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) locus implicated in increased hypogonadism risk in the general population.
It was observed that Haplotype-1(rs1799941 G allele-P156L P allele-D356 N D allele) was associated with increased CHD risk, while Haplotype-2 (rs1799941 rare A allele-P156L C allele- D356 N G allele) was correlated with the decreased CHD risk (p = 0.0167).
