Objective:To assess the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms of rs700519 and rs4646 loci of cytochrome P450 19A1 ( CYP19A1) gene with risk of breast cancer. Methods:Two hundred patients with breast cancer treated at Xinxiang Central Hospital between January 2019 and January 2024 and 100 healthy individuals were enrolled as the study group and control group, respectively. The genotypes of the CYP19A1 gene at the rs700519 and rs4646 loci were determined by direct sequencing. The general data, distribution of CYP19A1 genotypes and alleles were compared between the two groups. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of Xinxiang Central Hospital (Ethics No.2021-182). Results:No significant difference was found in age, body mass index, times of conception and proportion of menopause between the two groups ( P>0.05). The frequencies of AA genotype and A allele at the rs700519 locus, and the CC genotype and C allele at the rs4646 locus in the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P<0.05). The frequencies of AA genotype at the rs700519 locus and CC genotype at the rs4646 locus in patients with breast cancer at stages Ⅲ-Ⅳ were significantly higher than those at stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Polymorphisms of CYP19A1 gene at the rs700519 and rs4646 loci are associated with susceptibility of breast cancer. The AA and CC genotypes at the two loci may increase the risk for breast cancer.

Objective:To establish a rapid and accurate duplex real-time fluorescent reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification/recombinase-aided amplification(RT-RPA/RAA)detection method for identification and differentiation of Nipah virus(NiV),Langya virus(LayV),Mojiang virus(MoJV),and Cedar virus(CedV).Methods:First,specific primers and probes were designed targeting the conserved L gene regions of NiV and LayV,as well as the conserved N gene regions of MoJV and CedV,respectively. The four viruses were divided into two groups for duplex detection. Subsequently,the optimal primer and probe combinations were screened by comparing the amplification efficiency of different primer pair combinations(F1/R1,F1/R2,F2/R1,F2/R2). The reaction temperature was optimized through temperature gradient settings from 37 ℃ to 42 ℃,and the amounts of primers and probes were optimized to establish the duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection system. Finally,the detection performance was evaluated through specificity,sensitivity,and stability tests,as well as clinical sample validation.Results:The selected primer pairs(NiV primer pair F2/R1,LayV primer pair F1/R1,MoJV primer pair F2/R2,and CedV primer pair F2/R2)all demonstrated optimal amplification efficiency when combined with their corresponding probes. The optimal annealing temperature was 39 ℃,and the minimum detection limit was 101-102 copies/μl. The method could effectively distinguish target viruses from other non-target viruses,and repeated experiments showed good stability( R2> 0.90). Additionally,detection results for Malaysian NiV strains and various clinical samples were consistent with the Taqman multiplex qRT-PCR method. Conclusion:The duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection method successfully established in this study can rapidly and accurately identify and differentiate four important henipavirus-like viruses:NiV,LayV,MoJV,and CedV. It features simple operation,rapid reaction,high specificity,and good stability,providing an effective molecular detection tool for rapid field diagnosis,surveillance,and control of these zoonotic viruses.
