Association of LINC00673 rs11655237 polymorphism with pediatric glioma susceptibility in a Chinese population.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Previous researches have suggested that LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism might be correlated to cancer susceptibility. However, its correlation with pediatric glioma is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism is correlated with pediatric glioma.

Methods

In total, we included 399 subjects from South China. The Student's t-test was performed to evaluate age differences between glioma cases and controls. Differences in the categorical variables between the two groups were assessed using the χ² test. A logistic regression was conducted to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI).

Results

We conducted this case-control study to investigate the association between LINC00673 polymorphism and pediatric glioma susceptibility. Our results revealed that LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism was not correlated to pediatric glioma susceptibility in a Chinese population (CC/CT compared with TT: adjusted OR =2.49, 95% CI: 0.87-7.15, P=0.091). Furthermore, a stratified analysis also indicated LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism did not increase the risk of glioma in different subgroups.

Conclusions

Our study revealed that LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism was not correlated to pediatric glioma susceptibility in a Chinese population. In the future, further exploration of this genetic factor in relation to glioma susceptibility will require a larger sample size to verify the current findings.

LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T confers neuroblastoma susceptibility in Chinese population.

Project description:Neuroblastoma, which accounts for approximately 10% of all pediatric cancer-related deaths, has become a therapeutic challenge and global burden attributed to poor outcomes and mortality rates of its high-risk form. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWASs) identified the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism to be associated with the susceptibility of several malignant tumors. However, the association between this polymorphism and neuroblastoma susceptibility is not clear. We genotyped LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T in 393 neuroblastoma patients in comparison with 812 age-, gender-, and ethnicity-matched healthy controls. We found a significant association between the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and neuroblastoma risk (TT compared with CC: adjusted odds ratio (OR) =1.80, 95% confidence interval (CI) =1.06-3.06, P=0.029; TT/CT compared with CC: adjusted OR =1.31, 95% CI =1.02-1.67, P=0.033; and T compared with C: adjusted OR =1.29, 95% CI =1.06-1.58, P=0.013). Furthermore, stratified analysis indicated that the rs11655237 T allele carriers were associated with increased neuroblastoma risk for patients with tumor originating from the adrenal gland (adjusted OR =1.51, 95% CI =1.06-2.14, P=0.021) and International Neuroblastoma Staging System (INSS) stage IV disease (adjusted OR =1.60, 95% CI =1.12-2.30, P=0.011). In conclusion, we verified that the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism might be associated with neuroblastoma susceptibility. Prospective studies with a large sample size and different ethnicities are needed to validate our findings.

<i>LINC00673</i> rs11655237 C>T Polymorphism Impacts Hepatoblastoma Susceptibility in Chinese Children.

Project description:BackgroundHepatoblastoma (HB) is the most common hepatic malignancy in children, accounting for approximately 80% of all childhood liver tumors. Previous genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have found that the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism is associated with the risk of several different adult cancers. However, the association between this polymorphism and HB susceptibility remains unclear.MethodsWe analyzed the association between the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and HB susceptibility in a hospital-based study of Chinese children. We enrolled 213 HB patients and 958 healthy controls with genotypes determined by TaqMan, and the strength of the association of interest was determined by calculating odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).FindingsWe found a significant association between the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and HB risk (CT/TT compared with CC: adjusted OR = 1.40, 95% CI = 1.04-1.88, p = 0.029). Furthermore, stratified analysis indicated that rs11655237 T allele carriers in the following subgroups were more likely to develop HB: children older than 17 months, males, and those with tumors of clinical stages III + IV.InterpretationIn conclusion, we confirmed that the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism may be associated with HB susceptibility. Prospective studies with larger sample sizes and patients of different ethnicities are needed to validate our findings.

LINC00673 rs11655237 Polymorphism Is Associated With Increased Risk of Cervical Cancer in a Chinese Population.

Project description:Cervical cancer is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer and the fourth leading cause of cancer deaths in women worldwide. Few single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with risk of cervical cancer have been identified, yet genetic predisposition contributes significantly to this malignancy. Long noncoding RNA LINC00673 has been widely explored for its role in the development and prognosis of many tumors, and 2 genome-wide association studies identified that LINC00673 rs11655237 was associated with susceptibility to pancreatic cancer. In the current study, using a case-control study design, we found rs11655237 significantly increased susceptibility of cervical cancer in a Chinese population (odds ratio = 1.27; 95% confidence interval = 1.08-1.50; P = .005). Expression of LINC00673 was significantly higher in adjacent normal tissues than in paired cancer tissues ( P < .01) and significantly lower in the cancer or paired adjacent normal tissues of patients with cervical cancer having rs11655237 allele A than in those having rs11655237 allele G ( P < .001). Our results indicate that LINC00673 rs11655237 is associated with increased risk of cervical cancer, possibly by downregulating LINC00673 expression in cervical tissues.

Investigation of association between LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T and Wilms tumor susceptibility.

Project description:BackgroundWilms tumor (WT) is the most common pediatric renal malignancy. Previous genome-wide association studies have identified that the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism is associated with the risk of several types of cancer. However, few studies have investigated the association between LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T and WT susceptibility.MethodWe genotyped LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T in 145 patients with WT and 531 cancer-free controls recruited from southern Chinese children. The strength of association was estimated by odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs).ResultsOur study indicated that there was no significant association between LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and WT risk under all the tested genetic models (CT vs CC: adjusted OR = 0.94, 95% CI = 0.63-1.40; TT vs CC: adjusted OR = 0.60, 95% CI = 0.22-1.59; TT/CT vs CC: adjusted OR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.61-1.31; and TT vs CC/CT: adjusted OR = 0.61, 95% CI = 0.23-1.61). Further stratified analysis detected no significant association, either.ConclusionIn conclusion, we failed to find any association between the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and WT risk. This finding needs to be verified in larger studies and other populations.

Functional variants of lncRNA LINC00673 and gastric cancer susceptibility: a case-control study in a Chinese population.

Project description:Background: Two genome-wide association studies (GWASs) identified LINC00673 rs11655237 was associated with susceptibility to pancreatic cancer. Methods: To investigate the association between LINC00673 polymorphisms and gastric cancer (GC) risk, and the impact of gene-environmental interaction on GC risk, we conducted this case-control study in a Chinese population. Results: We found rs11655237 significantly increased susceptibility of GC in the Chinese population (OR=1.29; 95% CI=1.12-1.48; P=4.1×10-4), and a significant interaction was found between rs11655237 and Helicobacter pylori infection (P=0.006). Expression of LINC00673 was significantly higher in adjacent normal tissues than in paired cancer tissues (P<0.001) and significantly lower in the cancer or paired adjacent normal tissues of GC patients with rs11655237 allele A than in those with rs11655237 allele G (P<0.001). Mechanism exploration found that, the construct with the rs11655237[A] allele had significantly reduced luciferase activity in the presence of miR-1231, and this effect could be completely rescued when miR-1231 inhibitor was present. Conclusion: Our results indicate that LINC00673 rs11655237 is associated with an increased GC risk, possibly by down-regulating LINC00673 expression through creating a miR-1231 binding site.

The correlation between polymorphisms in the <i>XPC</i> gene and glioma susceptibility in a Chinese pediatric population.

Project description:BackgroundA previous study revealed that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in coding genes play a key role in tumorigenesis, genetic disorders, and drug resistance. Xeroderma pigmentosum group C (XPC) protein is a key DNA damage recognition factor that is required for maintaining the genomic stability. However, the correlation between XPC polymorphisms and glioma susceptibility is still unclear. Hence, this study aimed to investigate the correlation between XPC polymorphisms and pediatric glioma susceptibility.MethodsA total of 399 participants (171 glioma patients and 228 controls) were enrolled to evaluate the correlation between XPC polymorphism and pediatric glioma susceptibility. The count data of two groups was analyzed by chi-squared (χ2) test. Moreover, logistic regression was used to assess the strength of XPC polymorphisms associated with glioma susceptibility.ResultsWe identified that XPC rs1870134 G>C reduced pediatric glioma susceptibility. Compared to participants with rs1870134 GG/GC genotypes, those with rs1870134 CC genotype had a significantly lower risk for glioma [adjusted odds ratio (AOR) =0.10, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.01 to 0.78, P=0.028]. Patients with 4-5 genotypes have higher risk of glioma than those with 0-3 genotypes (AOR =1.59, 95% CI: 1.04 to 2.43, P=0.031). The stratified analysis showed that the risky effects of rs2228000 CT/TT genotypes and rs2229090 GC/CC genotypes were more predominant among children aged ≥60 months, astrocytic tumors, and clinical stage I.ConclusionsWe found for the first time that XPC polymorphisms had a statistically significant correlation with pediatric glioma susceptibility in a Chinese population. The XPC rs2228000 CT/TT and rs2229090 GC/CC genotypes could both increase the risk of pediatric glioma in subgroups with females, astrocytic tumors, and clinical stage I. The XPC polymorphism has potential to be a useful adjunct method to screen pediatric glioma.

A functional promoter polymorphism of IFITM3 is associated with susceptibility to pediatric tuberculosis in Han Chinese population.

Project description:A susceptibility locus for tuberculosis, a re-emerging infectious disease throughout the world, was previously discovered to exist on chromosome 11p15. IFITM3 gene encoding for interferon inducible transmembrane protein 3, is located at 11p15. It acts as an effector molecule for interferon-gamma, which is essential for anti-tuberculosis immune response. In order to investigate the association between susceptibility to TB and genetic polymorphisms of the IFITM3 core promoter, a case-control study including 368 TB patients and 794 healthy controls was performed in Han Chinese children in northern China. The rs3888188 polymorphism showed significant association with susceptibility to TB. The rs3888188 G allele, acting recessively, was more frequent in TB patients (95% confidence interval: 1.08-1.56, Bonferroni P-value: 0.039). We further assessed the effect of rs3888188 polymorphism on IFITM3 transcription in vitro. As based on luciferase promoter assays, the promoter activity of haplotypes with rs3888188 G allele was lower than that of haplotypes with rs3888188 T allele. Moreover, peripheral-blood mononuclear cells carrying rs3888188 GG genotype showed a reduced IFITM3 mRNA level compared to cells carrying TT or GT genotype. In conclusion, rs3888188, a functional promoter polymorphism of IFITM3, was identified to influence the risk for pediatric TB in Han Chinese population.

Association between Polymorphism of Exportin-5 and Susceptibility to Lead Poisoning in a Chinese Population.

Project description:Lead (Pb) is one of the major contaminants in many industries, and imposes hazardous effects on multiple human organs and systems. Studies have shown that lead is able to induce the alteration of microRNA (miRNA) expression in serum and organs. In this study we investigated whether polymorphisms in miRNA-regulating genes were associated with the risk of lead exposure. We genotyped seven single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 113 lead-sensitive and 113 lead-resistant lead-related Chinese workers by Taqman analysis. The lead-sensitive group showed a significantly higher blood lead level (BLL) than the resistant group based on unconditional logistic regression results. One SNP in XPO5 extron (rs2257082) was significantly associated with lead-poisoning (p = 0.022, odds rate (OR) = 1.63, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.07-2.47 in the C allele compared to the T allele). There were no significant associations between the other six SNPs and the blood lead levels. Therefore, polymorphism rs2257082 could be used to distinguish lead-resistant and lead-susceptible populations, and to develop more specific and accurate preventions.

Association study of AFF1 rs340630 polymorphism with genetic susceptibility to rheumatoid arthritis in Chinese population.

Project description:This study was performed to examine whether the AF4/FMR2 family, member 1 (AFF1) rs340630 polymorphism is involved in the genetic background of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a Chinese population. Two different study groups of RA patients and controls (328 RA patients and 449 healthy controls in the first study group; 232 RA patients and 313 controls in the second study group) were included in our study. Overall, there was no significant difference in either genotype (P=0.71 and 0.64 in the first and second study group, respectively) nor allele (in the first study group: A vs G, P=0.65, OR=1.05, 95%CI=0.85-1.29; in the second study group: G vs A, P=0.47, OR=1.10, 95%CI=0.86-1.40) frequencies of AFF1 rs340630 polymorphism between RA patients and controls. Our study represents the first report assessing the association of AFF1 rs340630 polymorphism with RA risk. No significant evidence was found for the dominant or recessive models. Further case-control studies with larger sample sizes and fine-mapping studies are needed to clarify the role of AFF1 in the genetic basis of RA.

Association of IFNL3 rs12979860 polymorphism with HCV-related hepatocellular carcinoma susceptibility in a Chinese population.

Project description:Background:The association between interferon lambda-3 (IFNL3?also known as interleukin 28B, IL28B) rs12979860 polymorphism and the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been investigated in recent studies with inconclusive and inconsistent results. IFNL3 rs12979860 polymorphism has been shown a marked differential distribution with regional and ethnic variation. Whether this single nucleotide polymorphism influences susceptibility to hepatitis C virus (HCV)-related HCC remains elusive. Methods:In this case-control study, a total of 157 Chinese Han patients with chronic HCV infection were enrolled, including 62 HCV-related HCC patients and 95 chronic hepatitis C (CHC) patients without HCC, and the genetic polymorphism of IFNL3 rs12979860 was genotyped via a DNA microarray-based assay. The logistic regression analysis was employed to determine the correlation between the genetic polymorphism and risk of HCV-related HCC. Results:A higher proportion of CT/TT genotype and T allele was observed in HCC patients compared to the CHC group. Under the genetic model of allele frequency, the T allele was associated with elevated risk of HCV-related HCC in the Chinese population compared to C allele after an adjustment for age, gender, body mass index, HCV infection duration, and HCV genotypes (P=0.046). In the subgroup analysis stratified by HCV genotype, subjects with CHC genotype 1b infection carrying rs12979860 T allele and CT+TT genotype had higher susceptibility to HCC than those with C allele and CC genotype (P=0.020, P=0.037, respectively). Conclusion:IFNL3 rs12979860 polymorphism with T allele could be a factor that increases the risk of HCV-related HCC in the Chinese population, especially those subjects with CHC genotype 1b infection.
