Associations of polymorphisms in the genes of FGFR2, FGF1, and RBFOX2 with breast cancer risk by estrogen/progesterone receptor status
AssociationN=2,416Yu‐Ling Cen et al.(2013)· Molecular Carcinogenesis

A hospital-based case-control study in rural and urban India (1,204 cases; 1,212 controls) examined genetic and lifestyle risk factors for breast cancer. Four SNPs in FGFR2 (rs1219648, rs2420946, rs2981575, rs2981582) showed positive associations with breast cancer (ORs 1.32-1.47). Additional SNPs in obesity and metabolic genes (rs374748 in FBN2, rs2922763 in HNF4G, rs2116830 in KCNMA1, rs11121832 in MTHFR, rs16886165 in MAP3K1, rs11594610 in TCF7L2, rs2274459 in MLN) were associated with increased breast cancer risk. Waist-to-hip ratio ≥0.95 showed strong association (OR 3.78; 95% CI 2.92-4.89), and women living first 20 years in rural areas showed protective effect (OR 0.77).

About ADRB2

This gene encodes beta-2-adrenergic receptor which is a member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily. This receptor is directly associated with one of its ultimate effectors, the class C L-type calcium channel Ca(V)1.2. This receptor-channel complex also contains a G protein, an adenylyl cyclase, cAMP-dependent kinase, and the counterbalancing phosphatase, PP2A. The assembly of the signaling complex provides a mechanism that ensures specific and rapid signaling by this G protein-coupled receptor. This receptor is also a transcription regulator of the alpha-synuclein gene, and together, both genes are believed to be associated with risk of Parkinson's Disease. This gene is intronless. Different polymorphic forms, point mutations, and/or downregulation of this gene are associated with nocturnal asthma, obesity, type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
