▶Thyroid‐associated genetic polymorphisms in relation to breast cancer risk in the Malmö Diet and Cancer StudyAssociationN=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.
About JAZF1
This gene encodes a nuclear protein with three C2H2-type zinc fingers, and functions as a transcriptional repressor. Chromosomal aberrations involving this gene are associated with endometrial stromal tumors. Alternatively spliced variants which encode different protein isoforms have been described; however, not all variants have been fully characterized [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
