medicine | MTHFR variant allele C677T has a protective effect on colorectal cancer development, whereas the variant allele of the A1298C does not produce any effect on disease risk. Both MTHFR polymorphisms are relevant and independent factors of patient outcome after 5-fluorouracil-based treatment of colorectal cancer | Homo sapiens |
Protein Variants | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
A1298C | natural polymorphism, not associated with colorectal cancer risk. Patients with 1298CC and AC genotypes exhibit worse survival than those with the wild-type genotype. Variant C allele of A1298C affects negatively the response to 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy | Homo sapiens |
C677T | natural polymorphism, has protective effect on colorectal cancer, the TT genotype showing an odds ratios of 0.06 and the CT of 0.51. C677T genotypes do not affect patient survival. C677T allele carriers respond better to 5-fluorouracil-based chemotherapy than patients with the wild-type CC genotype | Homo sapiens |
