Using the RT-PCR method for allele discrimination, we examined nine known SNPs in seven genes (GHR, IGFBP3, IGFR1, IRS1, FMN1, ANXA2, TaGLN) in ethnic Russians and in patients with prostate cancer (PC). For Russian population data on genotype distribution in studied SNPs was obtained. It was revealed that six of nine analyzed sites in examined locus were polymorphic. Distributions of alleles and genotypes frequency of polymorphic site 1388 T/C (Leu463Pro) in gene FMN1 (rs2306277) were distinguished between patients and control groups (delta = 0.019; chi2 = 7.884). In particular, correlation of OO genotype with increased risk of PC was observed (OR = 2.1591 95% CI 1.2055-3.8726). Moreover, the analysis of the polymorphic site 2911G/A (Glu917Arg) in gene IRS1 (rs1801278) revealed the accumulation of allele A in cancer group in comparison with control group (chi2 = 4.038; p = 0.044). Thus, the obtained data indicate the possibility of participation of polymorphism in genes FMN1 and IRS1 in formation of predisposition to PC.
