Analysis of MIR155HG variants and colorectal cancer susceptibility in Han Chinese population.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:MIR155HG plays an important role in malignant tumors, but it is rarely reported in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer (CRC). This study investigated the effects of MIR155HG polymorphisms on CRC susceptibility from the perspective of molecular genetics. METHODS:Eight SNPs in MIR155HG were selected and genotyped among 514 CRC cases and 510 healthy controls using the Agena MassARRAY platform. The associations between these SNPs and the CRC risk were evaluated under genetic models using conditional logistic regression analysis. The HaploReg v4.1 database was used for SNPs functional prediction. RESULTS:The allele "C" of rs12482371 (p = 0.047), allele "C" of rs1893650 (p = 0.025), and the allele "A" of rs928883 (p = 0.037) in MIR155HG were significantly associated with CRC risk. Genetic model analysis revealed that rs12482371 and rs1893650 increased CRC risk; whereas rs928883 was associated with reduced CRC risk. Stratification analysis showed that rs9383938 was a protective factor in CRC patients under 60 years old. Rs12482371 and rs1893650 were associated with the CRC risk in females. Rs11911469 and rs34904192 may affect the clinical stage and lymph node metastasis. Moreover, the haplotypes CTT and GTC of LD block rs4143370|rs77218221|rs12482371, and the haplotypes CATGA and CACGG of LD block rs77699734|rs11911469|rs1893650|rs34904192|rs928883 were significantly associated with CRC risk. CONCLUSION:This study revealed that MIR155HG SNPs were associated with CRC susceptibility and could be predictive biomarkers for CRC risk.
