▶Associations of polymorphisms in the genes of FGFR2, FGF1, and RBFOX2 with breast cancer risk by estrogen/progesterone receptor statusAssociationN=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).
▶Incidence of Breast Cancer and Its Subtypes in Relation to Individual and Multiple Low-Penetrance Genetic Susceptibility LociAssociationN=2,791Gillian K. Reeves et al.(2010)· JAMA
Population-based case-control study of 1,484 breast cancer cases and 1,307 controls examining 13 GWAS-identified SNPs for breast cancer susceptibility. Confirmed associations for 7 SNPs (rs13387042, rs4973768, rs10941679, rs2981582, rs3817198, rs3803662, rs6504950), with women in the highest quintile of a polygenic risk score having 2.2-fold increased breast cancer risk (95% CI: 1.67-2.88) compared to the lowest quintile. No significant interactions were detected between genetic loci and reproductive/menstrual risk factors.
About RAD51B
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family. RAD51 family members are evolutionarily conserved proteins essential for DNA repair by homologous recombination. This protein has been shown to form a stable heterodimer with the family member RAD51C, which further interacts with the other family members, such as RAD51, XRCC2, and XRCC3. Overexpression of this gene was found to cause cell cycle G1 delay and cell apoptosis, which suggested a role of this protein in sensing DNA damage. Rearrangements between this locus and high mobility group AT-hook 2 (HMGA2, GeneID 8091) have been observed in uterine leiomyomata. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]
