Introduction: According to researchers' research on the relationship between breast cancer and diabetes in the presence of other genes such as INSR, the aim of this study was comparing exons 2 and 3 of the DIRAS3 gene in mastectomies and lumpectomies women.Procedure: DNA extraction was done using a kit (PZP Molecular IVD Company) and stored in a micro tube at -20C. The said kit contained four different buffers named Wash buffer (W), Binding buffer (B), Elution buffer (E) and Removal buffer (R) along with proteinase k powder.Results: The polymorphism found in intron 2 with rs6682360 at position c.332-3 T>C or g.831 T>C of a cancer patient sample, that is, 3 nucleotides upstream of the 332nd nucleotide in intron 2 or the 831st nucleotide in intron 2 which is T open to C open. Since the number of measured samples was small, no significant relationship was found between the development of breast cancer and diabetes and the presence of this polymorphism.Conclusion: The results of this research showed that among the available polymorphisms, only the 5'UTR c.331 G>A is related to breast cancer in mastectomies and lumpectomies women.
