▶Genetic variations in regulator of G‐protein signaling (RGS) confer risk of bladder cancerAssociationN=1,606Eugene K. Lee et al.(2013)· Cancer
Case-control study of 803 bladder cancer patients and 803 healthy controls examining 95 SNPs in 17 RGS (Regulator of G-Protein Signaling) pathway genes. Rs10759 in RGS4 showed the strongest association with reduced bladder cancer risk (OR 0.77, P<0.001), and cumulative analysis of 5 significant SNPs yielded OR 4.13 (95% CI 2.14-7.98) for high-risk genotype combinations. Eleven and thirteen SNPs were associated with recurrence and progression in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC); rs2344673 in RGS5 was most significant for death in muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC), with median survival of 13.3 months vs 81.9 months.
About RGS14
This gene encodes a member of the regulator of G-protein signaling family. This protein contains one RGS domain, two Raf-like Ras-binding domains (RBDs), and one GoLoco domain. The protein attenuates the signaling activity of G-proteins by binding, through its GoLoco domain, to specific types of activated, GTP-bound G alpha subunits. Acting as a GTPase activating protein (GAP), the protein increases the rate of conversion of the GTP to GDP. This hydrolysis allows the G alpha subunits to bind G beta/gamma subunit heterodimers, forming inactive G-protein heterotrimers, thereby terminating the signal. Alternate transcriptional splice variants of this gene have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
