Objectives: This study presents the correlation of the rs7041 (Asp432Glu) gene polymorphism and plasma concentrations of VDBP in Kurdish patients with BC in Sanandaj, Iran. Methods: This cross-sectional study included 44 premenopausal BC patients and 44 healthy subjects. Plasma VDBP concentration was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The VDBP (rs7041) was genotyped by polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). Results: VDBP level was associated with a non-significant risk of BC (P=0.397). Frequencies of individuals with VDBP (rs7041) TT, TG, and GG genotypes were 13.6%, 52.2%, and 34.09% in case group and 11.3%, 79.5%, and 9.9% in control group, respectively. Genotype GG associated with increased susceptibility to developing BC (odds ratio [OR]=5.172, CI: 1.555-17.2, P=0.007). There was a significant reverse correlation between GT genotype and BC (OR=0.282, 95% CI: 0.110-0.722, P=0.008) Conclusion: The changes in the vitamin D pathway may increase susceptibility to develop BC in the Iranian Kurdish population.
