FGFR4 c.1162G > A (p.Gly388Arg) Polymorphism Analysis in Turkish Patients with Retinoblastoma

Abstract: Purpose. Various molecular variations are known to result in different gene variants in the FGFR4 gene, known for its oncogenic transformation activity. The goal of this study was to investigate the FGFR4 p.Gly388Arg variant that plays role in the progression of cancer and retinal growth and may be an effective candidate variant in the Turkish population in retinoblastoma patients with no RB1 gene mutation. Methods. Using the Sanger sequencing methods, the FGFR4 p.Gly388Arg variant was bidirectionally sequence… Show more

“…Twenty-four studies analyzed the pathological or prognostic parameters according to the four genetic models. Seven studies had a small sample size with less than 100 subjects in total ( 36 , 42 , 45 , 51 , 59 , 60 , 64 ), and most studies used univariate statistical method to compare survival times, except for seven studies ( 37 , 39 , 40 , 44 , 56 , 58 , 61 ).…”

“…These genes are FGFR4, NQO1, ACADS CX3CR1, GBE1, KRT85 , and TYR , which are suggested to possibly have an effect on the pathogenesis of the disease in these patients with no germline RB1 gene mutations, or that differences in RB1 gene methylation and expression status may be effective, as we are investigating in patients without RB1 gene mutation. [7–9] The presence of a RB1 gene mutation in all 3 patients with trilateral RB underlines the role of the RB1 gene in trilateral disease.…”

“…[6] Important genetic factors are known to play a role in the pathogenesis of retinoblastoma. [7][8][9] Mutations are known to initiate the disease in the retinoblastoma gene (RB1). RB1 gene (Gene ID: 5925, OMIM 614041) produces a nuclear protein weighing 110 kd called pRB.…”
