Association between breast cancer genetic susceptibility variants and terminal duct lobular unit involution of the breast
AssociationN=872Clara Bodelon et al.(2017)· International Journal of Cancer

This pooled analysis of 872 women from two studies (Susan G. Komen Tissue Bank and BREAST Stamp Project) investigated the association between 62 established breast cancer susceptibility SNPs and terminal duct lobular unit (TDLU) involution, a breast cancer risk factor. Six SNPs (9.7%) showed nominal associations with at least one TDLU measure: rs616488 (PEX14), rs11242675 (FOXQ1), and rs6001930 (MKL1) with higher TDLU count (P=0.047, 0.045, 0.031); rs1353747 (PDE4D) and rs6472903 (8q21.11) with higher acini count per TDLU (P=0.007, 0.027); and rs1353747 (PDE4D) and rs204247 (RANBP9) with higher epithelial content (P=0.024, 0.017). Overall, breast cancer susceptibility SNPs showed limited enrichment for associations with TDLU involution.

About PEX14

This gene encodes an essential component of the peroxisomal import machinery. The protein is integrated into peroxisome membranes with its C-terminus exposed to the cytosol, and interacts with the cytosolic receptor for proteins containing a PTS1 peroxisomal targeting signal. The protein also functions as a transcriptional corepressor and interacts with a histone deacetylase. A mutation in this gene results in one form of Zellweger syndrome.
