Analysis of the relationship between MIR155HG variants and gastric Cancer susceptibility.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Gastric cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world and a major cause of cancer-related death. This study aims to determine whether genetic variations in MIR155HG could be associated with gastric cancer risk. MATERIALS & METHODS:A total of 506 gastric cancer patients and 500 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Genotypes were examined with the MassARRAY platform and data management and analysis were conducted with the Typer Software. Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated with logistic regression adjusting for age and gender to evaluate the associations between SNPs with gastric cancer in genetic model analysis. RESULTS:The "CC" genotype of rs4143370 decreased the risk of gastric cancer in genotype model (p?=?0.020) and recessive model (p?=?0.018). Inversely, the "CC" genotype of rs1893650 increased the risk of gastric cancer in genotype model (p?=?0.023) and recessive model (p?=?0.014). Stratified analysis showed that rs11911469 was associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer only among the male group in the dominant model (p?=?0.039) and additive model (p?=?0.030). The haplotype analysis showed a strong linkage disequilibrium among these six SNPs (rs4143370, rs77699734, rs11911469, rs1893650, rs34904192 and rs928883). CONCLUSION:This study confirmed the relationship between SNPs of MIR155HG and the gastric cancer risk among the Chinese Han population. Our data may provide a new perspective to understand the aetiology of gastric cancer.
