ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Epidemiological studies have revealed a link between dietary habits and the breast cancer risk. The causality of the association between food consumption and breast cancer requires further investigation.Methods:
Using Mendelian randomization, we assessed the causal effects of 10 dietary habits on the risks of breast cancer and its subtypes (estrogen receptor [ER] + and ER- breast cancer). We obtained dietary pattern data in 2018 (number of single-nucleotide polymorphisms [SNPs] = 9,851,867) and breast cancer data in 2017 (number of SNPs = 10,680,257) from IEU OpenGWAS. Rigorous sensitivity analyses were conducted to ensure that the study results were credible and robust.Results:
We identified that genetic predisposition to higher dried fruit intake was linked to a reduced risk of overall breast cancer (inverse variance-weighted [IVW] odds ratio [OR] = 0.55; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.43-0.70; p = 1.75 × 10-6), ER+ breast cancer (IVW OR = 0.62; 95% CI 0.47-0.82; p = 8.96 × 10-4) and ER- breast cancer (IVW OR = 0.48; 95% CI 0.34-0.68; p = 3.18 × 10-5), whereas genetic predisposition to more oily fish intake was linked to a lower risk of ER+ breast cancer (IVW OR = 0.73; 95% CI 0.53-0.99; p = 0.04).Discussion:
Our findings suggest that a genetic predisposition for dried fruit and oily fish consumption may be protective against breast cancer; however, further investigation is required.
