ABSTRACT
Objective: To investigate the distribution of ABCB1 C3435T and ABCG2 C421A gene polymorphisms in Chinese Han population and their influences on the susceptibility and prognosis of breast carcinoma.
Methods: A total of 200 female subjects were enrolled in this study, comprising 100 breast cancer patients and 100 healthy controls. Carcinoma and para-carcinoma tissues were collected from the breast cancer patients, while peripheral blood was collected from healthy controls. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected by the Taqman method. Progression-free survival (PFS) and 5-year survival rate of the patients were calculated.
Results: ABCB1 C3435T and ABCG2 C421A polymorphisms were not associated with disease susceptibility and 5-year survival rate in the study population (p>0.05). However, a high mutation rate of both ABCB1 C3435T and ABCG2 C421A (16% and 17%, respectively) was observed in breast cancer tissues. Patients with ABCB1 3435TT genotype or ABCG2 421CC genotype had longer PFS (p<0.05).
Conclusion: ABCB1 3435TT and ABCG2 421CC were significantly associated with longer PFS in Chinese breast cancer patients.
