MMP8 and MMP9 gene polymorphisms were associated with breast cancer risk in a Chinese Han population

Abstract: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a group of zinc-dependent endopeptidases that can breakdown almost all extracellular matrix components. MMP8 and MMP9 have been shown to be associated with breast cancer (BC) risk in European and American populations. However, few studies have focused on the polymorphisms of MMP8 and MMP9 in Chinese Han BC patients. We investigated nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 571 BC cases and 578 controls to evaluating their association with risk of BC. The frequency of t… Show more

“…Invasion and migration are the main biological characteristics associated with tumor malignancy [35,36]. MMPs and inhibitors of TIMPs play a vital role in the process of degradation of the ECM and basal membrane (BM) which is closely related to tumor invasiveness [37,38].…”

“…Polymorphisms in many genes reportedly alter the risk of cancer and are considered potential markers of carcinogenesis. Polymorphisms of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)8 rs11225394 and MMP9 rs3787268 are closely related to BC risk in the Chinese Han population . The XPG (rs1047768 T > C) mutation may play an important role in the reduction of progression‐free survival and can be used as a predictor of poor prognosis in BC .…”

“…We selected the GoldMag-Mini Whole Blood Genomic DNA Purification Kit (GoldMag Co. Ltd. Xi’an City, China) to extract the DNA from the 5 ml peripheral venous blood; and Nanodrop 2000 (Gene Company Limited) was used to detect the concentration and purity of samples, DNA to ensure that the samples could be used for subsequent experiments. Same as previously published articles [14, 15]. rs2277698, rs2009196, rs7342880, rs11654470, rs2003241, and rs4789936 Six SNPs were selected in our study based on minor allele frequency data more than 0.05 in the global population [16].…”
