Single nucleotide polymorphisms of insulin-like growth factor gene and mammographic breast density.


ABSTRACT:

Aim of the study

To analyze six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): rs1520220, rs2945834, rs5747694, rs6214, rs6219, rs5742678. An attempt was made to assess the significance of the above IGF-1 gene polymorphisms as prognostic and predictive factors in Polish women with diagnosed increased breast mammographic density.

Material and methods

The study included women diagnosed with an increased breast mammographic density (n = 98), breast cancer (n = 135) and women as a control group (n = 60). The method used to detect polymorphisms in the IGF-1 gene was the analysis of single-stranded DNA conformation polymorphism (SSCP-PCR) and Sanger's sequencing.

Results

In the case of rs1520220 polymorphism, the genotype CC was found to increase the risk of breast cancer (OR = 2.6 95% CI 1.01-6.5, p = 0.04). Analysis of the rs2945834 polymorphism revealed that the occurrence of the G allele reduced the risk of breast cancer, while the occurrence of the A allele increased the risk of disease almost twice (OR = 0.55 95% CI). Among women who are heterozygous in terms of rs5747694 polymorphism (TG), the risk of breast cancer is twice as high as in the control group. The SNPs in the study group did not correlate with mammographic breast density.

Conclusions

The results obtained in the course of the analysis indicate that polymorphisms rs1520220, rs2946834, rs5747694 gene IGF-1 are associated with the occurrence of breast cancer but not with increased mammographic density. Summing up, the association between the polymorphisms of IGF-1 and the risk of developing breast cancer is independent of mammographic density.
