The findings of our case-control study and meta-analysis suggest a significant association between p53 Arg72Pro polymorphism and an increased risk of breast cancer in Indian population.
Our results suggest that TP53 c.215G>C, p. (Arg72Pro) polymorphism may be considered as a genetic marker for predisposition to BC in Moroccan population.
Allele 399Gln (OR 1.57; 95% CI 1.05-2.35), Arg399Gln of gene XRCC1 heterozygous genotype (OR 2.77; 95% CI 1.60-4.80), the combination of Arg399Gln/Arg72Pro of genes XRCC1/TP53 heterozygous genotype (OR 3.98; 95% CI 1.57-10.09), Arg399Gln/T309G of genes XRCC1/MDM2 (OR 3.0; 95% CI 1.18-7.56), as well as Arg399Gln/Arg72Pro/T309G of genes XRCC1/TP53/MDM2 (OR 6.40; 95% CI 1.18-34.63) were associated with BC in Kyrgyz women.
Our finding suggests that TP53 (Arg72Pro) polymorphism may play a significant role as risk factor for breast cancer in north Indian breast cancer patients.
This study investigates the role of 3 nonsynonymous SNPs in the DNA repair genes XRCC1 (R399Q), RAD51 (G135C) and TP53 (Arg72Pro) in breast cancer in Serbian women.
However, the results obtained from the combination of SNPs 344T>A of MDM2 and 72 Arg/Pro of p53, do not support the hypothesis of the prominent role of common p53 and MDM2 variations in the genetic mechanisms of chemotherapy resistance in breast cancer.
Genetic data revealed that the p53 Arg72Pro genotype was found to be greatly associated with breast cancer risk (p<0.001), as well as tumor site (p=0.046).
Arg72Pro and PIN3(16bp duplication) polymorphisms are proposed to have an effective role in structural changes of p53 and have therefore attracted interest as a risk factor for breast cancer in different populations.
The results of present study indicated that among the five TP53 polymorphisms investigated, the p.R72P polymorphism, and the RP-A1A1 and RP-GG genotype combination contribute to breast cancer susceptibility in North Indians.
Here, we investigated the effect on breast cancer survival of germline variation in these genes in 925 Finnish breast cancer patients and further analyzed five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PRKAG2 (rs1029946, rs4726050, rs6464153, rs7789699) and PPP2R2B (rs10477313) for 10-year survival in breast cancer patients, interaction with TP53 R72P and MDM2-SNP309, outcome after specific adjuvant therapy and correlation to tumor characteristics in 4,701 invasive cases from four data sets.
Interestingly, we observed a combinational effect between MDM4 rs4245739 and P53 Arg72Pro variants in attenuating breast cancer risk, highlighting the importance of the P53 tumor suppressor pathway genes during malignant transformation.
In the stratified analyses, a significant association between MDM2 SNP309 and breast cancer</span> risk were observed in Asian, but null significant association between TP53 R72P and breast cancer risk were found even in various subgroups.
An increase in breast cancer-specific mortality was observed for carriers of the germline MDM2 SNP309 rare GG-genotype (range hazard ratios: 2-3) or TP53 R72P heterozygous GC-genotype (range hazard ratios: 1-2) compared to those having the common genotypes within subgroups of tumors displaying a "more aggressive phenotype" gene expression profile.
In this study, we investigated whether MDM2-SNP309 is associated with p53 R72P genetic polymorphism for the risk of breast cancer development in Asian Taiwanese, which has not been well-studied in this regard.
The G allele of the TP53 R72P polymorphism and T allele of the MDM2 SNP309 polymorphism were putative high-risk alleles and exhibited a combined gene-dose-dependent joint effect on breast cancer risk that was more clearly observed in postmenopausal women.
To investigate the role of TSER (TYMS), C677T (MTHFR), Arg72Pro (p53) and C3435T (MDR1) gene polymorphisms in breast cancer patients treated with 5-fluorouracil and cyclophosphamide-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
The present study was undertaken to investigate the association of p53 Arg72Pro, Ins16bp and G13964C polymorphisms and their haplotypes with breast cancer risk in Tunisian women.
550 samples (275 cases/275 control) of peripheral blood obtained from women (aged 22-87 years) with breast cancer and from healthy women (aged 23-87 years) were genotyped for frequencies of the following gene variances: R72P/rs1042522 (gene TP53) and S31R/ss4388499 (gene p21).
We pooled data from four breast cancer cohorts within the Breast Cancer Association Consortium for which both TP53 R72P and MDM2 SNP309 were genotyped and follow-up was available (n = 3,749).
