This PhD thesis presents a comprehensive study of microRNA (miRNA) SNPs and their association with breast cancer risk in Australian Caucasian populations. The study identified three key findings: rs2910164 in MIR146A showed significant association (p=0.03 and p=0.00013 in two populations); rs353291 in MIR145 showed significant differences in allele frequencies (p=0.041 and p=0.023); and rs4284505/rs7336610 in the MIR17HG cluster showed significant association with protective effect (OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.60-0.94, p=0.012).

About SULF1

This gene encodes an extracellular heparan sulfate endosulfatase. The encoded enzyme selectively removes 6-O-sulfate groups from heparan sulfate chains of heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs). The enzyme is secreted through the Golgi and is subsequently localized to the cell surface. The expression of this gene may be down-regulated in several types of cancer, including hepatocellular (HCC), ovarian and breast cancers. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
