Abstract
Breast cancer is a complex disease influenced by both external and internal factors, among which genetic factors play a critical role. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are major contributors to the heritability of breast cancer, and their frequencies vary across ethnic groups. In this study, we aimed to investigate the association between 34 SNPs identified in previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and overall breast cancer risk, as well as breast cancer subtypes, in the Chinese female population. To accomplish this, we conducted an extensive association analysis using the high-throughput Sequenom MassARRAY® platform in a case-control study comprising 1848 breast cancer patients and 709 healthy controls. Our analysis, which utilized the SNPassoc package in R based on chi-squared (χ2) test and genetic model analysis, identified significant associations between breast cancer risk and SNP rs12493607 (TGFBR2, risk allele C, OR = 1.28 [1.11-1.47], P = 0.0005), as well as a less conservatively significant association with rs4784227 (CASC16, risk allele T, OR = 1.24 [1.08-1.42], P = 0.0017) and rs2046210 (ESR1, risk allele A, OR = 1.50 [1.16-1.95], P = 0.0016). Furthermore, our stratified analyses revealed that rs12493607 was significantly associated with invasive carcinoma, estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, progesterone receptor (PR)-positive, HER2-negative, and young (aged younger than 45) breast cancer. SNP rs4784227 and rs3803662 (CASC16) were associated with invasive carcinoma and ER-positive breast cancer, while rs2046210 was linked to ductal carcinoma in situ, ER-negative, PR-negative, HER2-positive, and elder (aged more than 45) breast cancers. SNPs rs10484919 (ESR1) and rs1038304 (CCDC170) showed links to HER2-positive breast cancer, and rs616488 (PEX14) with premenopausal breast cancer. In summary, our study shed light on the relationship between SNPs and breast cancer susceptibility within a vast Chinese cohort, supporting the development of polygenetic risk scores for the Chinese population. These findings provide valuable insights into the genetic basis of breast cancer and have important implications for risk prediction, early detection, and personalized treatment of this disease.

PeerJ 2022; 10:e14462. [PMID: 36540803 PMCID: PMC9760016 DOI: 10.7717/peerj.14462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2022] [Accepted: 11/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Breast cancer (BC) poses a serious threat to women worldwide. This research was designed to explore the association between the rs4784227 polymorphism of cancer susceptibility candidate gene 16 (CASC16) and BC susceptibility and prognosis, aiming to provide further information for the early detection of BC and to accelerate comprehensive cancer management. Methods A total of 1,733 subjects were recruited for this case-control study, of which 828 are BC patients and 905 are healthy individuals. The relevance between SNP rs4784227 and BC risk in diverse genetic models was analyzed by using the SNPStats analysis program and was assessed by odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using the binary logistic regression model. Pearson's χ 2 test was used to determine the correlation between the polymorphism and clinical characteristics of BC patients. Additionally, univariate survival analysis was performed by the Kaplan-Meier method and log-rank test, and multivariate survival analysis was performed by Cox regression. Results SNP rs4784227 was significantly associated with susceptibility to BC in the dominant model (CT/TT versus CC, OR = 1.237, 95% CI = 1.012-1.513, P = 0.038). The minor allele of SNP rs4784227 was significantly linked to an increased risk of BC (OR = 1.197, 95% CI = 1.022-1.401, P = 0.026). In addition, the rs4784227 polymorphism of CASC16 was associated with perineural invasion (P = 0.030), menstrual status (P = 0.016) and histological grade (P = 0.001, P = 0.003, P = 0.025; respectively) of BC patients. There was no significant association between the genotypes of rs4784227 and disease-free survival (DFS) or overall survival (OS) of breast cancer patients (P > 0.05). Conclusions The rs4784227 polymorphism of CASC16 may affect susceptibility to breast cancer and is associated with perineural invasion, menstrual status and histological grade in BC patients. Additionally, our results could not confirm that this polymorphism was related to breast cancer prognosis.

[PMID: 36042591 PMCID: PMC9410658 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000030218] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Although several studies have identified an association between the rs4784227-cancer susceptibility candidate gene 16 (CASC16) polymorphism and breast cancer, the results remain inconclusive. Therefore, we conducted a meta-analysis to assess the relationship between the rs4784227-CASC16 polymorphism and breast cancer risk. METHODS Studies were searched in the PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Google Scholar, and Cochran Library databases until June 10, 2021, to identify all potential literature on rs4784227-CASC16 polymorphism and breast cancer risk association. Fixed-effect or random-effect models were used to calculate odds ratios (ORs) and their corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Subgroup analyses, publication bias, and sensitivity analyses were also conducted. RESULTS Seventeen eligible studies involving 34,719 subjects (18,445 cases and 16,274 healthy controls) from 7 articles were included in the current meta-analysis. The pooled ORs regarding the association between the rs4784227-CASC16 polymorphism and breast cancer risk were statistically significant [T vs C: OR = 1.244, 95% CI = 1.202-1.287; TT vs CT + CC: OR = 1.407, 95% CI = 1.296-1.528; CC vs CT + TT: OR = 0.777, 95% CI = 0.745-0.811; TT vs CC: OR = 1.544, 95% CI = 1.419-1.681; CT vs CC: OR = 1.244, 95% CI = 1.189-1.301]. On subgroup analysis, the rs4784227-CASC16 T/C gene has a certain correlation with breast cancer susceptibility in Asian and North American populations, but no significant risk in the Australian population. CONCLUSION Our pooled analysis showed a significant association between the rs4784227- (T) allele and breast cancer susceptibility in Asian and North American populations, and intervention with this mutation might be a new therapeutic strategy for breast cancer. However, large-scale and well-designed studies are needed in different populations to further evaluate the role of the rs4784227-CASC16 polymorphism in breast cancer.

Impacts of LOC105371267 Variants on Breast Cancer Susceptibility in Northern Chinese Han Females: A Population-Based Case-Control Study. JOURNAL OF ONCOLOGY 2021; 2021:4990695. [PMID: 34475952 PMCID: PMC8407995 DOI: 10.1155/2021/4990695] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Background LOC105371267, also known as PR-lncRNA1, was reported to be a p53-regulated long noncoding RNA (lncRNA), which played an essential role in the pathogenesis of breast cancer (BC). We aimed to observe the potential association between LOC105371267 polymorphisms and BC risk in Northern Chinese Han females. Methods Totally, 555 healthy individuals and 561 patients with BC were recruited. Five candidate SNPs (rs6499221, rs3931698, rs8044565, rs3852740, and rs111577197) of LOC105371267 were genotyped with the Agena MassARRAY system. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were applied to evaluate the relationship of LOC105371267 genetic polymorphisms with BC susceptibility. Additionally, stratification analysis based on clinical features and haplotype analysis were also conducted. Finally, multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis was performed to assess the SNP-SNP interaction among LOC105371267 variants, and false-positive report probability (FPRP) analysis was used to validate the result of this study. Results In this study, rs3931698 was a protective factor of BC in total (GG homozygote: OR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.11–0.82, p=0.018; recessive model: OR = 0.30, 95% CI: 0.11–0.84, p=0.021). In stratification analysis based on the average age of 52 years and clinical characteristics (PR status, III-IV TNM stage), rs3931698 was also demonstrated to be associated with BC susceptibility. In addition, rs6499221 and rs3852740 were also associated with BC susceptibility among patients at age <52 years and patients with BC in a positive status. Thus, the haplotype analysis had a negative result for the incidence of BC (p > 0.05), and haplotype consisting of rs8044565 and rs111577197 was nonsignificantly associated with the BC risk. Finally, MDR and FPRP analyses also validated the result of this study. Conclusion Polymorphisms rs3931698, rs6499221, and rs3852740 of LOC105371267 were found to be associated with the risk of BC in total, and stratification analysis in the Northern Chinese Han females suggested that LOC105371267 variants might be helpful to predict BC progression.
