We studied the effects of BRCA2 and CHEK2 variants on breast cancer risk in two case-control series from Poland and Belarus. The missense BRCA2 variant T1915M was associated with a significant reduction in breast cancer risk (OR = 0.62; 95% CI 0.49-0.79; P = 0.0007). Modest increases of breast cancer risk were observed for the four analysed CHEK2 variants (I157T, 1100delC, IVS2 + 1G > A and del5395) (OR = 2.2; 95% 1.7-2.8; P = 0.0001). The highest risk was observed among women who carried both a BRCA2 and a CHEK2 variant (OR = 5.7; 95% CI 1.7-19; P = 0.006). We observed a statistically significant interaction effect between CHEK2 mutations and the BRCA2 substitution (P = 0.03). These data suggest that the BRCA2 T1915M polymorphism alone might be associated with a reduced risk of breast cancer, but among CHEK2 mutation carriers, it may lead to an unexpectedly high risk.
我们在来自波兰和白俄罗斯的两个病例对照系列研究中,探讨了BRCA2和CHEK2基因变异对乳腺癌风险的影响。错义BRCA2基因变异T1915M与乳腺癌风险显著降低相关(比值比[OR]=0.62;95%置信区间[CI]为0.49-0.79;P=0.0007)。对于分析的四种CHEK2基因变异(I157T、1100delC、IVS2+1G>A和del5395),观察到乳腺癌风险有适度增加(OR=2.2;95%CI为1.7-2.8;P=0.0001)。在同时携带BRCA2和CHEK2基因变异的女性中观察到最高风险(OR=5.7;95%CI为1.7-19;P=0.006)。我们观察到CHEK2基因突变与BRCA2基因替代之间存在统计学显著的交互作用(P=0.03)。这些数据表明,单独的BRCA2基因T1915M多态性可能与乳腺癌风险降低相关,但在CHEK2基因突变携带者中,它可能导致出乎意料的高风险。
