%X BACKGROUND: The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily encompasses different categories of isoenzymes that contribute to multiple metabolic processes involving drug detoxification, cellular signaling, and the proliferation of malignant tissues. Using genetic technology, customized bioinformatic analysis, and meta-analysis design, the main goal of this study was to identify the association between the CYP1A2*rs762551 variant and the susceptibility to breast carcinoma (BRCA).
METHODS: The case-control study was conducted based on 104 BRCA women and 102 healthy controls. Using the TaqMan allelic discrimination assay, the CYP1A2 (rs762551; c.-9-154 C>A) variant was genotyped. Bioinformatic frameworks and logistic regression analysis were used to assess the involvement of this genetic variant in BRCA development. A meta-analysis design was accomplished based on our case-control study and other previously published records. Publication bias, heterogeneity between studies, and trial sequential analysis (TSA) were analyzed.
RESULTS: The CYP1A2*rs762551 variant conferred protection against BRCA development under allelic (OR = 0.48, p-value < 0.001), dominant (OR = 0.34, p-value < 0.001), and recessive (OR = 0.44, p-value = 0.011) models. However, this intronic variant was correlated with a decreased risk of BRCA among late-onset menopause women compared to other cases. Bioinformatic analysis confirmed that this genetic variant has a functional impact on the progression of tumorgenesis. Moreover, this meta-analysis design included 12922 BRCA women and 15603 healthy controls. Our findings disclosed the contribution of the CYP1A2*rs762551 variant with protection against cancer development among Caucasian females under allelic (OR = 0.75, p-value = 0.025), and dominant (OR = 0.58, p-value = 0.015) models.
CONCLUSIONS: This case-control study confirmed the contribution of the CYP1A2*rs762551 variant with decreased risk of BRCA development among Egyptian subjects. Moreover, BRCA women with late-onset menopause conferred protection against cancer progression compared to other subjects. Our findings identified that this meta-analysis design achieved protection against BRCA development among Caucasian women compared to other ethnicities.
