The relationship between polymorphisms of BDNFOS and BDNF genes and heroin addiction in the Han Chinese population
ReviewTianbo Jin et al.(2016)· The Journal of Gene Medicine

This review examines neurogenetic and neuropharmacological correlates of opioid use disorder (OUD) with emphasis on ancestry-specific genetic risk profiles. The paper identifies multiple genes involved in the reward pathway (DRD2, DRD3, DRD4, OPRM1, OPRK1, OPRD1, BDNF, NRXN3, COMT, SLC6A4, KCNC1, KCNG2) and their variants associated with OUD susceptibility and treatment response across different ethnic populations, highlighting critical research disparities where African Americans and Hispanics have been underrepresented in genetic association studies.

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 BDNF

This gene encodes a member of the nerve growth factor family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein. Binding of this protein to its cognate receptor promotes neuronal survival in the adult brain. Expression of this gene is reduced in Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Huntington's disease patients. This gene may play a role in the regulation of the stress response and in the biology of mood disorders. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
