Abstract

Association of FAS Gene Polymorphism(-1378G>A) with Risk of Breast Cancer in Northwestern Iran

Highlights

  • Breast-cancer is the most common cancer among women

  • Decreased expression of FAS gene and de-regulation of proapoptotic signaling have been seen in various tumors such as breast-tumors

  • Single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter of FAS gene such as G>A substitution at nucleotide position -1378 that is located within the Sp1 transcription-factor binding site, may influence FAS expression
