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 LGR6
This gene encodes a member of the leucine-rich repeat-containing subgroup of the G protein-coupled 7-transmembrane protein superfamily. The encoded protein is a glycoprotein hormone receptor with a large N-terminal extracellular domain that contains leucine-rich repeats important for the formation of a horseshoe-shaped interaction motif for ligand binding. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
