| Abstract | The HDL-associated paraoxonase (PON) activities play a role in decreasing oxidative stress, which is known to contribute to cancer development. The aim of this study was to examine the relation between the PON1 L55M and Q192R polymorphisms and breast cancer (BC) risk in Egyptian females and to analyze their relation to clinicopathological parameters of BC. Both polymorphisms were characterized in 100 BC Egyptian females and 100 healthy women who had no history of any malignancy by polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) method, using DNA from peripheral blood in a case control study. With respect to PON1 L55M, the mutated allele (M) frequency was found in 70.5% in BC patients and in 53.5% in controls; the M allele was significantly associated with an increased risk of BC (adjusted odds ratio (OR$_{adj}$) 2.07, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.37–3.13; P = 0.011). The homozygous mutant genotype (MM) significantly increased the risk of BC (OR$_{adj}$ 2.07, 95% CI 1.17–3.64, P = 0.011). However, as regard PON1 Q192R, the R mutated allele frequency was found in 28.5% in BC patients and in 33% in controls, the women who were QR heterozygotes (OR$_{adj}$ 0.96, 95% CI 0.55–1.68) or RR homozygotes (OR$_{adj}$ 0.64, 95% CI 0.25–1.63), and R allele (OR$_{adj}$ 0.81, 95% CI 0.53–1.42) did not show any risk for BC. Both PON1 L55M and Q192R polymorphisms genotype frequencies were not related to patient’s age (P = 0.94 and 0.72, respectively). M allele genotypes (LM/MM) carriers showed significant association only with nodal metastases (P = 0.02) but not with other clinicopathologic parameters. However, R allele genotype (QR/RR) carriers showed insignificant correlation with clinicopathological parameters. In conclusion, our results suggest that the M allele of L55M polymorphism could be a suitable marker for BC susceptibility and tumor prognosis in Egyptian women. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
