Matrix Metalloproteinase-2 Promoter Polymorphism Is Associated with Breast Cancer in a Mexican Population

Abstract: Background:Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) is an enzyme with proteolytic activity on matrix proteins, particularly basement membrane constituents. A single nucleotide polymorphism C>T transition at –1306 displayed a strong association with several cancers. Our study investigated whether or not the MMP-2 –1306C>T polymorphism contributed to the development of breast cancer (BC) in a Mexican population. Methods: 90 patients with BC and 96 control subjects were analyzed to detect MMP-2 –1306C>T polymorphism. R… Show more

“…The genotype variants were analyzed using polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) methodology for all the SNPs. Primer sequences, PCR conditions and the restriction enzymes used have been described elsewhere for both MMP2 and TIMP2 [12][13][14][15]. Positive and negative controls were used in each genotyping assay, and 5 % of the samples were randomly selected and run in duplicates with 100 % concordance.…”

“…The DNA was resuspended in 100 ll water and stored at -20°C until analyzed. Polymerase chain reactions (PCR) for the MMP-2 gene promoter polymorphic region were carried out in a total volume of 25 ll, as previously described (Delgado-Enciso et al 2008). The solution contained 50 ng genomic DNA, 0.1 lM each primer, 1 9 Taq polymerase buffer (1.4 mM MgCl 2 ), 0.2 mM dNTP, and 0.25 U AmpliTaq DNA polymerase (Perkin Elmer, Foster City, CA).…”

“…It represents 16% of all cancers in women [2]. The risk for the development of breast cancer is the result of a combination of hereditary and environmental factors, the latter of which include aspects of lifestyle and diet [3,4,5]. The consumption of certain foods may modify the risk for the development of cancer.…”
