Contribution of personalized Cyclin D1 genotype to triple negative breast cancer risk.

ABSTRACT: Aim: Cell cycle regulator cyclin D1 (CCND1) is a pivotal regulator for G1/S phase transition, playing a critical part in initiation of carcinogenesis. Triple negative breast cancer comprises a very heterogeneous group of cancer cells, but little is known about what is wrong in the genome of these patients. This study investigated contribution of CCND1 genotype to individual triple negative breast cancer susceptibility. Materials: In all, 2464 native Taiwan subjects consist of 1232 breast cancer cases and 1232 controls were enrolled in a hospital-based, case-control study. CCND1 A870G (rs9344) genotyping was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Risk-stratified analyses correlated genotype and age-related characterist
