Abstract

Background Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have confirmed association of rs710521, rs2736098 and rs17674580 gene variants with susceptibility to Bladder Cancer (BC) in European and Caucasian. However, the risk conferred for BC in north Indians is unknown. In present study, we replicate GWAS findings of TP63C/T(rs710521), TERTC/ T(rs2736098) and SLC14A1C/T(rs17674580) gene polymorphisms for their association with BC susceptibility in North Indian population.

Highlights

  • Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) have confirmed association of rs710521, rs2736098 and rs17674580 gene variants with susceptibility to Bladder Cancer (BC) in European and Caucasian

  • The risk conferred for BC in north Indians is unknown

  • Further tumor-grade-stage level of cases supports the genotypic data with TERT and SLC14A1 for BC risk
