Impact of p53 arg72pro SNP on Breast Cancer Risk in North Indian Population.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Background:Genetic changes in p53 gene contribute to breast cancer susceptibility. Objective and Methods:A case-control study and a meta-analysis were performed to investigate the role of p53 codon72 SNP with breast cancer susceptibility in Indian women. Results:p53 heterozygous arginine variant was associated with decreased risk of breast cancer in total cohort. In meta-analysis, Allelic and GG vs. CC genetic comparison model were found to be associated with breast cancer risk. Moreover, recessive comparison model indicated a protective correlation with breast cancer occurrence. Conclusion:The findings of our case-control study and meta-analysis suggest a significant association between p53 Arg72Pro polymorphism and an increased risk of breast cancer in Indian population.
