Association between <em>TLR-9</em> polymorphisms and colon cancer susceptibility in Saudi Arabian female patients

Abstract: ObjectiveThe authors aimed to explore the relationship between the expression/polymorphisms of TLR-9 and susceptibility to colon cancer development in the Saudi Arabian population.MethodsIn total, blood samples from 115 patients with colon cancer and 102 participants without colon cancer were analyzed in this study. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were selected from the TLR-9 gene, including two sites within the TLR-9 gene’s promoter region (rs352144 and rs187084) and one site in a TLR-9 intron re… Show more

“…Genotyping for the TLR4 SNPs was performed in a 96‐well plate by using a TaqMan allelic discrimination assay as previously described (Alanazi et al, ; Kohailan et al, ; Semlali, Parine, et al, ; Semlali et al, ) and by using the TaqMan ® SNP Genotyping Assay from Applied Biosystems according to the manufacturer's protocol (Semlali, Parine, et al, ; Semlali et al, ). Briefly, the amplification was performed in a final reaction volume of 10 μl containing 20 ng of genomic DNA, 5.6 μl of 2X Universal Genotyping Master Mix, and 200 nM of each primer.…”

“…However, female T allele frequency is lower than controls. The authors suggest that some introns might have some regulatory functions including alternative splice influence, which finally affects both mRNA and protein products [8]. Moreover, rs352139 (A/G) and rs352144 (A/C), in the promoter region, were found to be significantly associated with colorectal cancer development and localization.…”

“…TLRs also contain a cytoplasmic tail domain that is homologous to the interleukin-1 receptor and is responsible for initiating various intracellular signaling cascades. These signaling cascades include activation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), which is considered a key transcription factor that promotes expression of genes involved in immune response such as cytokines and chemokines, as well as co-stimulatory and adhesion molecules [7,8] (Figure 1). To date, 10 types of toll-like receptor families have been identified in humans, and each of them recognizes a specific PAMP [9][10][11][12].…”
