Abstract:
Objective
To investigate the distribution of single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) at 870 position of exon 4 in cyclin D1 gene (CCND1)and its relationship with susceptibility to breast cancer in patients of Uygur and Han nationalities.
Methods
According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, we enrolled 192 breast cancer patients of Uygur nationality, 200 Uygur healthy controls, 254 breast cancer patients of Han nationality and 200 Han healthy controls, who all were treated in Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2012 to December 2014, for a prospective study. Polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) method was used to detect the G870A polymorphism of CCND1 gene.CCND1 G870A genotype and allele frequency were compared by χ2 test. The relationship between this polymorphism and breast cancer susceptibility in Uygur or Han population in Xinjiang was analyzed using nonconditional Logistic regression.
Results
The distribution of GG, AG, AA genotypes of CCND1 gene G870A and G/A allele frequency showed no significant difference between Uygur breast cancer patients and Uygur healthy controls [GG, AG, AA genotypes: 18.7% (36/192) vs 16.0% (32/200), 52.1%(100/192) vs 49.5% (99/200), 29.2% (56/192) vs 34.5% (69/200), χ2 =1.430, P=0.489; G/A allele frequency:44.8% (172/384) vs 40.8% (163/400),55.2% (212/384) vs 59.2% (237/400), χ2=1.308, P=0.253]. The comparison between Han breast cancer patients and Han healthy controls showed the similar results [GG, AG, AA genotypes: 20.1% (51/254) vs 16.0% (32/200), 50.0% (127/254) vs 56.0% (112/200),29.9% (76/254) vs 28.0% (56/200), χ2=1.925, P=0.382; G/A allele frequency:45.1% (229/508) vs 44.0% (176/400), 54.9% (279/508) vs 56.0% (224/400), χ2 =0.105, P=0.745]. Whether Han or Uighur population, the differences in the genotype distribution (χ2 =0.213,P=0.899;χ2=0.007,P=0.932) and allele frequency (χ2=2.153,P=0.341;χ2=0.865,P=0.352) showed no significant difference between Uygur and Han breast cancer patients or between Uygur and Han healthy controls.Our finding showed no increased risk of breast cancer in the population carrying A allele in Uygur or Han population (A allele vs G allele: OR=0.848,95%CI 0.639-1.125, P=0.253; OR=0.957,95%CI 0.735-1.246, P=0.745).
Conclusion
There is no significant association between CCND1 G870A polymorphism and breast cancer susceptibility in Uygur or Han population in Xinjiang.
