Abstract:
We analyzed association of potentially regulatory polymorphisms (rs590352, rs11542583, rs3829202, rs207258, and rs4796672) with breast cancer. A significant association was found between this disease and rs2072580T>A (p=0.001) located in the overlapping promoter regions of the SART3 and ISCU genes. In women with AA and AT genotypes, the risk of breast cancer is higher by 6.7 times (p=0.001) and 12 times (p=0.001), respectively, in comparison with TT genotype. Under a codominant model of inheritance (AT vs AA+TT), the risk of breast cancer was increased by 4.2 times (р=0.001) for the AT genotype. Under a recessive model of inheritance (TT vs AA+TT), the risk of disease was 10-fold higher (р=0.001) for the TT genotype. It has been demonstrated that the T>A substitution affects the binding properties of transcription factors CREB1 and REST.

Cancer-Critical Genes II: Tumor Suppressor Genes
When the function of certain critical genes, especially those involved in cell cycle regulation and cell growth signaling cascades, gets disrupted, it upsets the cell cycle progression. Such cells with unchecked cell cycles start proliferating uncontrollably and eventually develop into tumors.

Loss of Tumor Suppressor Gene Functions
When the tumor suppressor genes develop mutations or are lost, cells start growing out of control, leading to cancer. However, a single functional copy of the tumor suppressor gene is enough for the cells to maintain their normal functions and cell...
