Association of MiR-149 (RS2292832) Variant with the Risk of Coronary Artery Disease.

ABSTRACT: Background:Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause of mortality and disability from incommunicable disease in the world. Although the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in protein-coding genes and the risk of CAD has been investigated extensively, very few heart-disease associated studies concerning the SNPs in miRNA genes have been reported. The present study was performed to elucidate the association between the pre-microRNA-149 (miR-149) SNP rs2292832 and the risk of CAD in an Iranian population. Methods:Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) were performed to identify the genotypes of the miR-149 SNP rs2292832 in 421 unrelated subjects (272 with CAD and 149 controls). Results:Our analysis revealed that the TT genotype was more frequent in CAD patients than control subjects (P=0.02) implying that TT genotype should be considered as a risk factor in CAD development (TT vs. TC+CC p=0.02, OR=1.88). Conclusions:The present study suggests that rs2292832-TT in pre-miR-149 is associated with CAD in an Iranian population.

Project description:Background: Accumulating evidence suggests that functional dysregulations of miRNAs, especially miR-196a-2 and miR-149, in cancers could be attributed to polymorphisms in miRNA sequences. This study was aimed at clarifying the association of mir-196a-2 rs11614913 and mir-149 rs2292832 with cancer risk by performing an updated meta-analysis of genetic association studies. Methods: PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and ScienceDirect databases were searched until 9 April 2018 to identify eligible studies. Studies should meet the following criteria to be included in the meta-analysis: evaluation of genetic association between rs11614913 and/or rs2292832 and susceptibility to cancer; A case-control design; Written in English; Availability of sufficient data for estimating odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (95%CI). Studies that met the following criteria were excluded: review articles, meta-analysis, abstracts or conference papers; duplicate publications; studies on animals or cell-lines; studies without a case-control design; studies that did not report genotype frequencies. Pooled ORs and 95% CIs were estimated using a total of 111 studies (41,673 cases and 49,570 controls) for mir-196a rs11614913 and 44 studies (15,954 cases and 19,594 controls) for mir-149 rs2292832. Stratified analysis according to quality scores, genotyping method, ethnicity, broad cancer category and cancer type was also performed. Results: Mir-196a-2 rs11614913 T allele was associated with decreased cancer risk in overall population. The association was only significant in Asians but not Caucasians. In subgroup analysis, significant associations were found in high quality studies, gynecological cancers, ovarian, breast, and hepatocellular cancer. Mir-149 rs2292832 was not associated with cancer risk in overall population and there were no differences between Asians and Caucasians. However, the T allele was associated with a decrease risk of gastrointestinal tract cancers under the heterozygote model and an increased risk of colorectal cancer under the recessive model. Conclusions: The present meta-analysis suggests that mir-196a-2 rs11614913 may contribute to the risk of cancer especially in Asians. Mir-149 rs2292832 may modulate the risk of gastrointestinal tract cancers especially colorectal cancer. This study had some limitations such as significant heterogeneity in most contrasts, limited number of studies enrolling Africans or Caucasians ancestry and lack of adjustment for covariates and environmental interactions.
