Popis: Aim: The study was aimed to explore the association between AXIN1 gene polymorphism and epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) susceptibility as well as prognosis. Methods: A total of 165 EOC cases and 327 healthy controls were recruited to participate in this study. In total three tag SNPs in AXIN1 gene were genotyped using PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Results: Significantly increased EOC risk was found associated with the A/C heterozygous genotype of rs12921862, the C allele and C/T genotype in the rs1805105 and the T/T genotype of rs370681. Meanwhile, Kaplan–Meier survival curves showed that patients with rs12921862 C/C genotype improved overall survival in the EOC group. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the AXIN1 gene may be related to susceptibility and overall survival in EOC.
