Genetic susceptibility of cervical cancer
Epidemiological and laboratory-based studies have identified infection with one of 15 high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types as a necessary but not sufficient cause of cervical cancer. The prevalence of genital HPV infections is high in young women, but most of the infections regress without interventions. Host genetic variations in genes involved in immune response pathways may be related ...
متن کاملGenetic susceptibility to HPV infection and cervical cancer.
Squamous cell carcinoma of the cervix (SCCC) is one of the leading causes of death in developing countries. Infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) is the major risk factor to develop malignant lesions in the cervix. Polymorphisms of the MHC and p53 genes seem to influence the outcome of HPV infection and progression to SCCC, although controversial data have been reported. MHC are h...
متن کاملmiR-124 rs531564 polymorphism influences genetic susceptibility to cervical cancer.
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer among women worldwide. It most frequently results from human papillomavirus (HPV) infection; however, recent evidence suggests that there may be underlying genetic factors, specifically in regions encoding microRNAs, dictating susceptibility to cervical cancer. This study investigated the relationship between the miR-124 rs531564 gene polymorphis...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphism of N142D GSTO2 and susceptibility to breast cancer: a meta-analysis
To establish a comprehensive picture of the relationship between glutathione S-transferase omega 2 (GSTO2; MIM: 612314) gene N142D variant (rs. 156697) and breast cancer risk, the present meta-analysis was carried out. Studies published up to July 2012 with information about GSTO2 polymorphism and breast cancer risk were identified using several electronic databases. We identified 4 eligible st...
متن کاملGenetic susceptibility to lung cancer.
Lung cancer is a highly environmental disease, but cancer researchers have long been interested in investigating genetic susceptibility to lung cancer. This paper is a historical review and provides updated perspectives on lung cancer susceptibility research. The recent introduction of easier genotyping methods and the availability of an almost complete human genome database facilitated the ass...
