rs7895676 is a SNP within intron 2 of the FGFR2 gene, as part of a haplotype associated with increased risk for sporadic postmenopausal ER+ breast cancer in Caucasian patients. The risk shown for this SNP is actually the risk calculated for the tightly associated SNP rs1219648. The distinguishing feature of rs7895676 is experimental evidence indicating that it is one of two SNPs in this intron that appear to have a (the?) functional role associated with the transcriptional regulation of the FGFR2 gene. The minor alleles of both SNPs, rs7895676 and rs2981578, lead to increased transcription and increased breast cancer risk. Allele-specific up-regulation of FGFR2 increases susceptibility to breast cancer.

Analytical methods for inferring functional effects of single base pair substitutions in human cancers.
