ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) is a member of the FGFR family of tyrosine kinase receptors, which via cell growth, invasiveness, motility and angiogenesis contributes to the process of tumorogenesis. A huge interest today is focused on FGFR2 gene polymorphism as it may have a significant impact on the development of various benign and malignant tumors. A case-control study was designed to help determine if FGFR2 gene polymorphism rs2981582 is associated with oral cancer in Lithuanian subjects.METHODS:
The study included 35 patients with a diagnosis of oral cancer and 100 healthy subjects as a reference group. DNA samples were extracted from peripheral venous blood. Genotyping of FGFR2 rs2981582 was performed using the real-time polymerase chain reaction method. Statistical analysis was performed using "IBM SPSS Statistics 20.0".RESULTS:
It was determined that FGFR2 gene rs2981582 polymorphism has no effect on a development of oral cancer. The analysis of FGFR2 gene polymorphisms did not reveal any differences in the distribution of GG, GA, and AA genotypes between the oral cancer group, and the control group (42.9%, 48.6%, and 8.6% vs. 46%, 37% and 17%, respectively).CONCLUSION:
Results of present study showed no association between FGFR2 gene polymorphisms rs2981582 and oral cancer. However, a further study with a larger sample sizes is advisable.
