TNRC9 rs12443621 and FGFR2 rs2981582 polymorphisms and breast cancer risk.

ABSTRACT:

Background

This study is to investigate the association of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) rs2981582, trinucleotide-repeat-containing 9 (TNRC9) rs3803662, rs12443621, and leukocyte-specific protein 1 (LSP1) rs3817198 polymorphisms with breast cancer and mammographic density in Han Chinese population.

Methods

TaqMan Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) Genotyping Assays and unconditional logistic regression analysis were used to examine these SNPs in 105 breast cancer cases and 382 controls.

Results

The genotype frequencies of rs12443621 and rs2981582 were significantly different between controls and cases (P=0.017 and 0.006, respectively). Subjects carrying G allele of rs12443621 had increased breast cancer risk (AG vs AA: OR=2.017, 95% CI=0.910-4.471; GG
