The aim of this study was to investigate the association of genetic polymorphisms in the promoter region of miR-17-92 with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The gene polymorphism was analysed using SNaPshot in 312 SLE patients and 396 controls. Relative expression of miR-17-92 was measured by quantitative real-time PCR. Association was found between rs9515692 and a decreased risk of SLE (CT vs CC: OR = 0.65, 95%CI, 0.46-0.92, P = .014; CT+TT vs CC: OR = 0.64, 95%CI, 0.46-0.90, P = .009; T vs C ...[more]
