ABSTRACT: Background
ORAI1 channels play an important role for breast cancer progression and metastasis. Previous studies indicated the strong correlation between breast cancer and individual single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ORAI1 gene. However, the possible SNP-SNP interaction of ORAI1 gene was not investigated.Results
To develop the complex analyses of SNP-SNP interaction, we propose a genetic algorithm (GA) to detect the model of breast cancer association between five SNPs (rs12320939, rs12313273, rs7135617, rs6486795 and rs712853) of ORAI1 gene. For individual SNPs, the differences between case and control groups in five SNPs of ORAI1 gene were not significant. In contrast, GA-generated SNP models show that 2-SNP (rs12320939-GT/rs6486795-CT), 3-SNP (rs12320939-GT/rs12313273-TT/rs6486795-TC), 5-SNP (rs12320939-GG/rs12313273-TC/rs7135617-TT/rs6486795-TT/rs712853-TT) have higher risks for breast cancer in terms of odds ratio analysis (1.357, 1.689, and 13.148, respectively).Conclusion
Taken together, the cumulative effects of SNPs of ORAI1 gene in breast cancer association study were well demonstrated in terms of GA-generated SNP models.
