Association of miR-146a, miR-149 and miR-196a2 polymorphisms with neuroblastoma risk in Eastern Chinese population: a three-center case-control study.

ABSTRACT: Neuroblastoma is one of the most common malignancy in childhood, which originates from the developing sympathetic nervous system. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in primary miRNA (pri-miRNA) have shown to associate with cancer susceptibility, including neuroblastoma. Three precursor miRNA (pre-miRNA) SNPs (pre-miR-146a rs2910164, pre-miR-149 rs2292832 and pre-miR-196a2 rs11614913) were found to contribute to pathogenesis of various diseases. Here, to evaluate the association among these three pre-miRNA SNPs and neuroblastoma susceptibility in Eastern Chinese children, we carried out a three-center case-control study involving 312 neuroblastoma cases and 762 healthy controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association of these three polymorphisms with neuroblastoma risk. However, no significant association was observed among these three SNPs and neuroblastoma susceptibility, in either overall or subgroups analysis by tumor sites, gender and age. Further larger studies consisting of diverse ethnic populations are required to clarify the associations among these three pre-miRNAs polymorphisms and neuroblastoma risk.

Project description:Background: Cervical cancer is the second major female cancer in India and constitutes one-fourth of the world's burden. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection is an essential but insufficient cause for cervical cancer. Genetic variants in microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) play an important role in the susceptibility of various types of cancers.Objective: To evaluate the association of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) in miR-146a (rs2910164), miR-196a2 (rs11614913), and miR-499 (rs3746444), with cervical cancer susceptibility in Indian population.Methods: Three hundred samples were genotyped by Polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Both patients and controls were also screened for the presence of HPV DNA.Results: In this case-control study, 125 (83.3%) cervical cancer cases were found to be infected with HPV DNA. The frequency of miR-146a C allele was higher in controls than in cases [odds ratio (OR) (95% confidence interval (CI)) = 0.81 (0.57-1.14), P-value = 0.258]. miR-196a2 T allele was found to be associated with the decreased risk of cervical cancer [OR (95% CI) = 0.36 (0.26-0.50), P-value<0.0001]. Approximately 1.22-fold increased risk has been observed in individuals carrying miR-499 TT genotypes [OR (95% CI) = 1.22 (0.63-2.36), P-value = 0.617]. Interaction studies for miR-196a2/miR-499 loci showed that women carrying TT/CC and TT/CT genotypes were less likely to develop cervical cancer than CC/CC combination [P<0.05]. Likewise, miR-146a/miR-196a2 genotypic combinations (CC/TT, CG/TT, GG/TT) followed the similar trend [P<0.05], exhibited the protective effect against cervical cancer with reference to CC/CC group. Combined genotypes of miR-146a/miR-499 [CC/CT, CG/CC, CG/CT, CG/TT, GG/CC, GG/CT, GG/TT] demonstrated a non-significant trend toward higher cervical cancer risk [OR > 1.00, P>0.05].Conclusion: Polymorphisms in miR-146a, miR-196a2, and miR-499 individually or collectively have the prospective to emerge as biomarkers for cervical cancer.
