The association of polymorphic markers Arg399Gln of XRCC1 gene, Arg72Pro of TP53 gene and T309G of MDM2 gene with breast cancer in Kyrgyz females.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The association of genes XRCC1, TP53 and MDM2 with breast cancer (BC) has never been tested in Kyrgyz population. We, therefore, aimed to identify an association of alleles and genotypes of polymorphic markers Arg399Gln of gene XRCC1, Arg72Pro of gene TP53, and T309G of gene MDM2 with the risk of BC in Kyrgyz women.

Methods

This was a case-control study of 219 women of Kyrgyz origin with morphologically verified BC (N = 117) and 102 controls, age-matched with BC cases. The mean age of subjects in this study was 52.2 ± 10.8 years. We extracted DNA from the venous blood and genotyped polymorphic markers Arg399Gln of gene XRCC1, Arg72Pro of gene TP53 and T309G of gene MDM2 using polymerase chain reaction and the method of restriction fragment polymorphism.
