The aim of this study was to investigate the association of the rs2240308 and rs1133683 polymorphisms in the AXIN2 gene with colorectal cancer (CRC) in Mexican patients.
We found no statistically significant association between controls and prostate cancer for other seven SNPs of AXIN2 including Exon1-148 C/T (rs2240308), Exon1-432 T/C (rs2240308), Exon5-1365 G/A (rs9915936), Exon5-1386 C/T (rs1133683), Intron5-1712+19 T/G, Exon7-2062 C/T, and Intron7-2141+73 G/A (rs4072245) (P>0.05).
In conclusion, this pooled analysis suggested that AXIN2 rs2240308 C/T variant may decrease both lung and prostate cancer susceptibility, particularly in Asian descendants and population-based studies.
To assess the contribution of Axin2 SNP to CRC susceptibility, we examined the Axin2 C148T genotype in CRC patients and 170 healthy controls by PCR-RFLP.
These findings indicate that further replication studies with large sample sizes are warranted </span>to re-evaluate the relationship between Axin2 rs2240308 and cancer risk, especially in Caucasians.
Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were utilized to investigate the relationship between three AXIN2 variants (rs2240308 C/T, rs1133683 C/T, and rs4791171 A/G) and overall cancer susceptibility.

We analysed this novel AXIN2 mutant, together with two reported AXIN2 mutants [c.1966C>T (p.Arg656Stop) and c.1994delG (p.Leu688Stop)] that cause colorectal cancer with and without oligodontia, to study the effect of the mutant p.His660Tyr on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway and to compare the molecular pathogenesis of different AXIN2 mutants in tooth agenesis and carcinogenesis.

An updated analysis was conducted to ascertain a more accurate estimation of the correlation between <i>AXIN2</i> 148 C/T, 1365 C/T, and rs4791171 A/G polymorphisms and cancer risk.

Heterozygous, germline nonsense mutations in AXIN2 have been reported in two families with oligodontia and colorectal cancer (CRC) predisposition, including an AXIN2 1989G>A mutation.
We describe a family with a novel, inherited AXIN2 mutation (c.1989G>A) segregating in an autosomal dominant pattern with oligodontia and variable other findings including colonic polyposis, gastric polyps, a mild ectodermal dysplasia phenotype with sparse hair and eyebrows, and early onset colorectal and breast cancers.
