Genetic 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 کاملMolecular epidemiology of Human Papillomaviruses in breast cancer, Golestan province of Iran
Abstract Background and objectives: Breast cancer is the most prevalent one in women. Some of the common causative factors are genetic background, nutritional and environmental factors. Viruses are believed as a risk factor in this cancer, too. Recent studies reported that Human Papillomaviruses can be one of the possible risk factors of breast cancer. This study focused on investigation of the...
متن کاملThe Role of Matrix Metalloproteinase-3 Functional 5A/6A Promoter Polymorphism in Tumor Cell Progression and Metastasis of Breast Cancer
In the human genome, chromosome 11 contains a cluster of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) genes. Single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter region of MMP genes are important for MMP expression. A common adenine deletion polymorphism (5A) at position -1171 of the MMP-3 gene promoter (5´-AAAAAACCAT-3´ change to 5´-AAAAACCAT-3´) facilitates transcriptional factor binding and MMP-3 promoter acti...
متن کاملThe Association of the MTHFR Gene Polymorphisms with Breast Cancer Susceptibility
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. It is also the second leading cause of cancer death among women after lung cancer. Considering the relationship among plasma folate levels, the level of uracil, and DNA damage in cell division, methyl tetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) is a suitable candidate for studies on the susceptibility to cancer, including brea...
متن کاملAssociation of P53 (+16ins-Arg) Haplotype with the Increased Susceptibility to Breast Cancer in Iranian-Azeri Women
Background:Many case-control investigations have showed the correlation of TP53 gene polymorphisms with the risk of breast cancer. However, the findings are not consistent. It has been suggested that the investigation of P53 genotype combinations and haplotypes may be more helpful than the detection of single polymorphisms. In the present study, we investigate...
متن کاملSexual Dysfunction in Breast Cancer Survivors
Background: Approximately 12.3 percent of women will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point during their lifetime. Breast cancer is accompanied by alternation in body image and worries about sexual attractiveness. Thus, sexual life of breast cancer survivor’s needs special attention. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of breast cancer on women’s sexual function. ...
