Abstract
Colon cancer (CC) is a serious global health problem detected, among other gastrointestinal (GI) tumors. Several risk factors suggested for the occurrence of CC include modifiable and nonmodifiable risk factors. Notably, the genetic risk factors play a crucial role in developing susceptible to CC. The molecular heterogeneity of CC also remains a significant and crucial aspect for personalized therapy. Therefore, detecting suitable molecular genetic biomarkers related to CC development are essential to support healthcare providers for therapy. However, the identification and characterization of the genetic variants clinically during the diagnosis for appropriate therapy still remain unclear. Determining the cancer susceptibility via genetic variants, including single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs), provides a new opportunity in the diagnostics. Thus, in this chapter, we revised the clinically significant genetic variants associated with CC based on the existing data. As suggested from the previous studies, the gene SNPs (APC, ATM, BRAF, BRCA1, DUSP10, MAP2K1, MLH1, MTHFR) are associated with colon cancer. The miRNA SNPs (rs8905 (PRKAR1A), rs8176318 (BRCA1)) and miRNA target SNPs as well (rs8905 (PRKAR1A), rs8176318 (BRCA1), let-7, miR-34b/c/146a/603, miR-149, miR-192a/608/27a SNPs) were also described that might affect and alter the genetic susceptibility of CC.
