Abstract

With the development of genome-wide association study (GWAS), an increasing number of genetic variables have been confirmed to be associated with breast cancer. Furthermore, an increasing number of studies from Asian populations are becoming available. Few GWAS loci have been replicated in the Chinese Han population. In a case-control study of breast cancer in the Henan Tumor Hospital (253 cases/339 controls), we evaluated five SNPs from GWAS of populations of European or Asian ancestry. In order to evaluate the contribution of genetic factors to population differences in breast cancer subtypes, all cases are defined by estrogen (ER), progesterone (PR) receptor, Human epidermal growth factor receptor - 2 (HER2), and Ki67 status. Different genotypes of rs3803662 (TOX3)/ (TNRC9)) in the case group and the control group are statistically significant (P = 0.044), but the ones of rs10069690 (TERT), rs2046210 (6q25.1), rs2981582 (EGFR2), and rs889312 (MAP3K1) have no significant statistical differences with breast cancer (P = 0.772, 0.308, 0.376, 0.468). The allelic frequencies of rs3803662 between the case group and the control group differ in recessive genetic models (odds ratio (OR) = 2.04, 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.14-3.66) and in con-dominant inheritance models (OR = 2.17, 95 % CI 1.18-4.00). Compared with AA and GA, GG increased the risk of breast cancer (P = 0.017, 0.013). The genotype of rs2046210 (6q25.1), rs2981582 (EGFR2), rs889312 (MAP3K1), and rs3803662 (TOX3/TNRC9) has no statistical differences in different subtypes of breast cancer. Five common breast cancer susceptibility loci from GWAS are not strongly associated with breast cancer risk among the Han Chinese of the Henan province; only rs3803662 (TOX3/TNRC9) is confirmed to increase the risk of breast cancer. The different genotypes of five loci distribute equally in different subtypes of breast cancer.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 25 January 2016.
All research outputs
#20,983,210
of 23,613,071 outputs
Outputs from Tumor Biology
#1,851
of 2,614 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#335,778
of 398,916 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Tumor Biology
#144
of 245 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,613,071 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 2,614 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 2.4. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 398,916 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 245 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
