Abstract: Genetic polymorphisms of MT2A are frequently observed in many different cancers. We performed this case-control study, including 459 breast cancer (BC) patients and 549 healthy controls from Northwest China, to evaluate the associations between two common MT2A polymorphisms (rs10636 and rs28366003) and BC risk. The MT2A polymorphisms were genotyped via Sequenom MassARRAY. The individuals with the rs28366003 A/G, A/G-G/G genotypes underwent a higher risk of BC (P<0.0001). And, the minor allele G of rs28366003 w… Show more

“…Frequencies of the variants were estimated using the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) ( p value calculated by exact test) to compare the expected frequencies of the genotypes in the control groups. PLINK software (http://pngu.mgh.harvard.edu/purcell/plink/) were used to calculate the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) and odds ratios (ORs) by unconditional logistic regression analysis with adjustment for age and gender (Lin et al, ), in order to assess the strength for the association of genotypes and their combinations with GC risk in the four models (codominant, dominant, recessive, and log‐additive) (Jin et al, ; Lin et al, ; Liu et al, ). Finally, we measured the linkage disequilibrium (LD) between loci, haplotype construction, and genetic association was calculated by unconditional logistic regression.…”

“…Moreover, the A allele of rs3761548 was associated with a larger size of tumor and more likely to have overexpression of HER2 , which means that this locus might help to guide treatment for BC and be a potential biomarker for classification of tumor subtype. In another Chinese population, Di et al reported that rs28366003 and rs10636 polymorphisms in MT2A had a correlation with BC risk; moreover, the relationship between this polymorphism and the histological grade might help us to judge tumor prognosis.…”

“…The genotyping of the 11 SNPs was carried out on the MassARRAY iPLEX (Agena Bioscience, San Diego, CA, USA) platform using the matrix‐assisted laser desorption ionization‐time of flight (MALDITOF) (Lin et al, ; Liu, Wang, et al, ; Wang et al, ). Genotyping results were output by Agena Bioscience TYPER version 4.0 software.…”
