Considering the relevance of TP53, BCL2, CASP3, and CASP9 genes for the occurrence of the intrinsic apoptosis, this study investigated the distribution of the genetic variants rs17880560 (TP53), rs11269260 (BCL2), rs4647655 (CASP3), rs4645982, and rs61079693 (CASP9), as well as genetic ancestry and clinical data, in a BC cohort from the Brazilian Amazon that other variants in these genes might play a role in this process. This evidence concerns the gene CASP3 and breast cancer.
