Impact of WNT1-inducible signaling pathway protein-1 (WISP-1) genetic polymorphisms and clinical aspects of breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer is the most common diagnosed malignancy in women. This study genotyped blood samples from 236 Han Chinese women with breast cancer and 128 healthy controls for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs2977537, rs2929970, rs2929973, rs2977530, and rs62514004, to determine whether these WNT1-inducible signaling pathway protein 1 (WISP-1) genetic polymorphisms increase the risk of developing breast cancer. Compared with wild-type (AA) carriers, those carrying the WISP1 rs62514004 AG or AG + GG genetic variants had a greater risk of developing breast cancer. In an evaluation of the association between clinicopathological aspects and the WISP1 SNP rs62514004 in the breast cancer cohort, patients with the GG genotype were less likely than those with the AA genotype to develop stage
