Rs12537 Is a Novel Susceptibility SNP Associated With Estrogen Receptor Positive Breast Cancer in Chinese Han Population.

ABSTRACT: Genetic testing is widely used in breast cancer and has identified a lot of susceptibility genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). However, for many SNPs, evidence of an association with breast cancer is weak, underlying risk estimates are imprecise, and reliable subtype-specific risk estimates are not in place. A recent genome-wide long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) association study in Chinese Han has verified a genetic association between rs12537 and breast cancer. This study is aimed at investigating the association between rs12537 and the phenotype. We collected the clinical information of 5,634 breast cancer patients and 6,308 healthy controls in the early study. And χ2 test was used for the comparison between different groups in genotype. The frequency of genotypic distribution among SNP rs12537 has no statistically significant correlation with family history (p = 0.8945), menopausal status (p = 0.3245) or HER-2 (p = 0.2987), but it is statistically and significantly correlated with ER (p = 0.004006) and PR (p = 0.01379). Most importantly, compared to the healthy control, rs12537 variant is significantly correlated with ER positive patients and the p-value has reached the level of the whole genome (p = 1.66E-08 <5.00E-08). Furthermore, we found rs12537 associated gene MTMR3 was lower expressed in breast cancer tissues but highly methylated. In conclusion, our findings indicate that rs12537 is a novel susceptibility gene in ER positive breast cancer in Chinese Han population and it may influence the methylation of MTMR3.

A common variant in the SIAH2 locus is associated with estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer in the Chinese Han population.

Project description:BackgroundGenome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified many loci associated with breast cancer risk. These studies have primarily been conducted in populations of European descent.ObjectiveTo determine whether previously reported susceptibility loci in other ethnic groups are also risk factors for breast cancer in a Chinese population.MethodWe genotyped 21 previously reported single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within a female Chinese cohort of 1203 breast cancer cases and 2525 healthy controls using the Sequenom iPlex platform. Fourteen SNPs passed the quality control test. These SNPs were subjected to statistical analysis for the entire cohort and were further analyzed for estrogen receptor (ER) status. The associations of the SNPs with disease susceptibility were assessed using logistic regression, adjusting for age. The Bonferroni correction was used to conservatively account for multiple testing, and the threshold for statistical significance was P<3.57×10(-3) (0.05/14).ResultAlthough none of the SNPs showed an overall association with breast cancer, an analysis of the ER status of the breast cancer patients revealed that the SIAH2 locus (rs6788895; P?=?5.73×10(-4), odds ratio [OR]?=?0.81) is associated with ER-positive breast cancer.ConclusionA common variant in the SIAH2 locus is associated with ER-positive breast cancer in the Chinese Han population. The replication of published GWAS results in other ethnic groups provides important information regarding the genetic etiology of breast cancer.

SNP-SNP Interaction between TLR4 and MyD88 in Susceptibility to Coronary Artery Disease in the Chinese Han Population.

Project description:The toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-myeloid differentiation factor 88 (MyD88)-dependent signaling pathway plays a role in the initiation and progression of coronary artery disease (CAD). We investigated SNP-SNP interactions between the TLR4 and MyD88 genes in CAD susceptibility and assessed whether the effects of such interactions were modified by confounding risk factors (hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia and Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection). Participants with CAD (n = 424) and controls (n = 424) without CAD were enrolled. Polymerase chain restriction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was performed on genomic DNA to detect polymorphisms in TLR4 (rs10116253, rs10983755, and rs11536889) and MyD88 (rs7744). H. pylori infections were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and the cardiovascular risk factors for each subject were evaluated clinically. The significant interaction between TLR4 rs11536889 and MyD88 rs7744 was associated with an increased CAD risk (p value for interaction = 0.024). In conditions of hyperglycemia, the interaction effect was strengthened between TLR4 rs11536889 and MyD88 rs7744 (p value for interaction = 0.004). In hyperlipidemic participants, the interaction strength was also enhanced for TLR4 rs11536889 and MyD88 rs7744 (p value for interaction = 0.006). Thus, the novel interaction between TLR4 rs11536889 and MyD88 rs7744 was related with an increased risk of CAD, that could be strengthened by the presence of hyperglycemia or hyperlipidemia.

<i>LRRC3B</i> Polymorphisms Contributed to Breast Cancer Susceptibility in Chinese Han Population.

Project description:PurposeLRRC3B gene, as a tumor suppressor gene was involved in the development and progress of breast cancer (BC). However, the effect of LRRC3B polymorphisms on BC has rarely been reported. In the study, we aimed to evaluate the relation between LRRC3B variants and BC risk.MethodsAmong 563 BC patients and 552 healthy controls, ten single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in LRRC3B were genotyped by Agena MassARRAY. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using logistic regression model.ResultsOur study demonstrated that rs1907168 polymorphism (heterozygous: OR = 0.71, p = 0.017) was related to the reduced risk of BC in the overall. In stratified analyses by age, rs1907168 was associated with the decreased (heterozygous: OR = 0.53, p = 0.002) while rs78205284 (homozygote: OR = 2.83, p = 0.034) increased BC susceptibility among the population at age ≤51 years. Rs6551122 (recessive: OR = 0.51, p = 0.028) and rs12635768 (homozygote, OR = 0.36, p = 0.023) polymorphisms were related to the smaller BC tumor size (<2 cm). In addition, rs112276562 (heterozygote OR = 0.56, p = 0.002), rs6551122 (heterozygote OR = 0.63, p = 0.016), and rs73150416 (heterozygote OR = 0.57, p = 0.005) variants contributed to the lower incidence of PR-positive BC. Moreover, rs6788033 was associated with a lower expression level of Ki-67 (log-additive: OR = 0.68, p = 0.024). Furthermore, we found an association of 'GATT' haplotype with an increased risk for BC. In addition, LRRC3B gene was down-regulated in BC tumor and had a poor prognosis in BC in in silico analysis.ConclusionOur study firstly found LRRC3B SNPs contributed to the risk of BC, suggesting LRRC3B variants might help to predict BC progression.

Association of multiple genetic variants with breast cancer susceptibility in the Han Chinese population.

Project description:We selected 13 tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) to investigate whether they were associated with breast cancer risk in the Chinese Han population. Upon statistical analyses of clinical data from 551 patients and 577 controls, we found that six of the 13 SNPs were associated with breast cancer; namely, rs4973768(Odds ratio (OR) = 1.30, 95% confidence interval (CI) =1.01-1.67), rs981782(OR =1.30, 95% CI=1.01-1.66), rs1432679(OR =0.84, 95% CI=0.70-0.99), rs10759243(OR=1.30, 95%CI=1.09-1.55), rs10822013(OR =1.18, 95% CI=1.00-1.39) and rs704010(OR =1.63, 95% CI=1.04-2.56). When stratified based on breast cancer subtype, our analyses revealed that three SNPs (rs981782, rs10759243 and rs704010) correlated with ER+ breast cancer, while another three (rs4973768, rs1432679 and rs10822013) correlated with ER- breast cancer. We obtained similar results while investigating the correlation of SNPs with PR status or clinical stage. Our results suggest that associations identified between SNPs and breast cancer through genome-wide association studies (GWAS) may not always be generalizable across races.

Familial risks and estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer in Hong Kong Chinese women.

Project description:The role of family history to the risk of breast cancer was analyzed by incorporating menopausal status in Hong Kong Chinese women, with a particular respect to the estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) type.Seven hundred and forty seven breast cancer incident cases and 781 hospital controls who had completed information on family cancer history in first-degree relatives (nature father, mother, and siblings) were recruited. Odds ratio for breast cancer were calculated by unconditional multiple logistic regression, stratified by menopausal status (a surrogate of endogenous female sex hormone level and age) and type of relative affected with the disease. Further subgroup analysis by tumor type according to ER status was investigated.Altogether 52 (6.96%) breast cancer cases and 23 (2.95%) controls was found that the patients' one or more first-degree relatives had a history of breast cancer, showing an adjusted odds ratio (OR) of 2.41 (95%CI: 1.45-4.02). An excess risk of breast cancer was restricted to the ER+ tumor (OR = 2.43, 95% CI: 1.38-4.28), with a relatively higher risk associated with an affected mother (OR = 3.97, 95%CI: 1.46-10.79) than an affected sister (OR = 2.06, 95%CI: 1.07-3.97), while the relative risk was more prominent in the subgroup of pre-menopausal women. Compared with the breast cancer overall, the familial risks to the ER+ tumor increased progressively with the number of affected first-degree relatives.This study provides new insights on a relationship between family breast cancer history, menopausal status, and the ER+ breast cancer. A separate risk prediction model for ER+ tumor in Asian population is desired.

Prognostic Impact of Progesterone Receptor Status in Chinese Estrogen Receptor Positive Invasive Breast Cancer Patients.

Project description:Estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) have been used as indicators of endocrine system status since the mid-1970s in the clinical management of breast cancer. The predictive role of ER in endocrine therapy is undisputed, but the prognostic value of PR is still debated. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of ER positive breast cancer with different PR expression levels.A population cohort of 3,030 primary invasive ER positive breast cancer patients from a single cancer center underwent surgery and received adjuvant endocrine therapy from 2004 to 2010. The clinical and biological features of these patients with high PR-expressing tumors were compared with those of patients with low PR-expressing tumors. The follow-up data for disease-free survival (DFS), overall survival (OS), and breast cancer specific survival (BCSS) was obtained from 2,778 patients. Cox regression analysis was used to correlate biomarkers and tumor characteristics with DFS, OS, and BCSS.Tumors with low PR expression had more invasive pathological features and biological indexes than those with high PR expression. Low PR expression was an independent poor prognostic factor for DFS (p=0.014; hazard ratio [HR], 0.781; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.641-0.950), OS (p=0.002; HR, 0.699; 95% CI, 0.560-0.873), and BCSS (p=0.005; HR, 0.714; 95% CI, 0.566-0.902). Furthermore, in low PR expressing tumors, patients who received chemotherapy had better DFS (p=0.002; HR, 0.449; 95% CI, 0.268-0.751), OS (p<0.001; HR, 0.341; 95% CI, 0.192-0.606), and BCSS (p<0.001; HR, 0.292; 95% CI, 0.156-0.549) than patients who did not received chemotherapy.Patients with ER positive invasive breast cancer with low PR expressing tumors have a worse prognosis than those with high PR expressing tumors, and these patients can benefit from chemotherapy.

The 5p12 breast cancer susceptibility locus affects MRPS30 expression in estrogen-receptor positive tumors.

Project description:Genome-wide association studies have identified numerous loci linked to breast cancer susceptibility, but the mechanism by which variations at these loci influence susceptibility is usually unknown. Some variants are only associated with particular clinical subtypes of breast cancer. Understanding how and why these variants influence subtype-specific cancer risk contributes to our understanding of cancer etiology. We conducted a genome-wide expression Quantitative Trait Locus (eQTL) study in a discovery set of 287 breast tumors and 97 normal mammary tissue samples and a replication set of 235 breast tumors. We found that the risk-associated allele of rs7716600 in the 5p12 estrogen receptor-positive (ER-positive) susceptibility locus was associated with elevated expression of the nearby gene MRPS30 exclusively in ER-positive tumors. We replicated this finding in 235 independent tumors. Further, we showed the rs7716600 risk genotype was associated with decreased MRPS30 promoter methylation exclusively in ER-positive breast tumors. In vitro studies in MCF-7 cells carrying the protective genotype showed that estrogen stimulation decreased MRPS30 promoter chromatin availability and mRNA levels. In contrast, in 600MPE cells carrying the risk genotype, estrogen increased MRPS30 expression and did not affect promoter availability. Our data suggest the 5p12 risk allele affects MRPS30 expression in estrogen-responsive tumor cells after tumor initiation by a mechanism affecting chromatin availability. These studies emphasize that the genetic architecture of breast cancer is context-specific, and integrated analysis of gene expression and chromatin remodeling in normal and tumor tissues will be required to explain the mechanisms of risk alleles.

Association of single nucleotide polymorphisms in estrogen receptor alpha gene with susceptibility to knee osteoarthritis: a case-control study in a Chinese Han population.

Project description:Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis and its multifactorial nature has been increasingly recognized. Genetic factors play an important role in OA etiology and estrogen receptor alpha (ESR1) gene polymorphisms may be involved. This study tried to explore whether the ESR1 gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were associated with primary knee OA in the Chinese Han population. Two SNPs, rs2234693 and rs9340799, were genotyped in 469 cases and 522 controls. Rs2234693 was associated with knee OA in the dominant genetic model (TT + TC versus CC) (P = 0.025) and a higher T allele frequency existed (P = 0.047) among females. The combined genotype (TT + TC) (P = 0.025) and T allele (P = 0.016) were related with mild knee OA only. For rs9340799, A allele was associated with knee OA in all subjects (P = 0.031) and females (P = 0.046). Statistical differences were detected in the dominant genetic model (AA + AG versus GG) among females (P = 0.030). The combined genotype (AA + AG) (P = 0.036) and A allele (P = 0.039) were merely correlated with mild knee OA. ESR1 gene is considerably associated with knee OA etiology in the Chinese Han population.
