Thyroid‐associated genetic polymorphisms in relation to breast cancer risk in the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study
AssociationN=4,058Jasmine Brandt et al.(2018)· International Journal of Cancer

This prospective nested case-control study examined 17 single nucleotide polymorphisms related to free thyroxine (fT4) and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) levels in 865 breast cancer cases and 3,193 controls from the Malmö Diet and Cancer Study. The main findings identified fT4-related SNPs rs2235544 (DIO1 gene, OR for breast cancer risk in low fT4 women) and rs6485050, as well as TPO-Ab-related SNPs rs11675434, rs3094228, rs1033662, rs301806, and rs2071403 as potentially associated with breast cancer risk. The most promising association was rs2235544 (DIO1), where the C allele was associated with lower fT4 levels and increased breast cancer risk, particularly in women with low fT4 levels, suggesting a potential causal relationship.
