Recent literature suggests that vitamin D signaling has a protective effect against breast cancer risk. Thus, the aim of the present study was to find the association of vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene polymorphisms with breast cancer risk.
Fok1, Bsm1, Apa1, and Taq1 polymorphisms were performed by polymerase chain reaction- restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method, and Poly A polymorphism was carried out using PCR-SSCP in 140 breast cancer patients and 155 controls.
Odds ratio was significantly higher in both homozygous variant genotypes (LL) of Poly A polymorphism of VDR (odds ratio [OR] = 5.42, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.19-23.31, P = 0.02) and heterozygous variant genotypes (SL) of Poly A polymorphism of VDR (OR = 3.89, 95% CI = 1.10-13.7, P = 0.03). Fok1, Bsm1, Apa1, and Taq1 polymorphisms of VDR gene were not significantly associated with breast cancer risk.
Poly A polymorphism at the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of VDR gene was significantly associated with breast cancer risk in West Indian population.
近期文献表明维生素D信号传导对乳腺癌风险具有保护作用。因此,本研究的目的是探寻维生素D受体(VDR)基因多态性与乳腺癌风险之间的关联。
采用聚合酶链反应-限制性片段长度多态性(PCR-RFLP)方法检测Fok1、Bsm1、Apa1和Taq1多态性,并运用PCR-SSCP检测140例乳腺癌患者和155例对照者的Poly A多态性。
VDR的Poly A多态性纯合变异基因型(LL)(优势比[OR]=5.42,95%置信区间[CI]=1.19-23.31,P=0.02)和杂合变异基因型(SL)(OR=3.89,95%CI=1.10-13.7,P=0.03)的优势比均显著更高。VDR基因的Fok1、Bsm1、Apa1和Taq1多态性与乳腺癌风险无显著关联。
在西印度人群中,VDR基因3'非翻译区(UTR)的Poly A多态性与乳腺癌风险显著相关。
