Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignancies and one of the major causes of cancer-related deaths worldwide. In the present study, we investigated the association between miR-449a rs112310158 SNP and GC risk. Our findings revealed that a variant GG genotype increased the risk of occurrence of GC compared to a wild type AA genotype (OR = 2.542, 95% CI: 1.304-4.954, P = 0.005). Specifically, the G allele reduced the risk of occurrence of cervical cancer in women compared to the A allele (OR = 1.279, 95% CI: 1.012-1.617, P = 0.043). In conclusion, our findings suggest that miR-449a rs112310158 is a genetic risk factor for GC.
胃癌(GC)是最常见的恶性肿瘤之一,也是全球癌症相关死亡的主要原因之一。在本研究中,我们调查了miR-449a rs112310158单核苷酸多态性与胃癌风险之间的关联。我们的研究结果显示,与野生型AA基因型相比,变异型GG基因型增加了胃癌发生风险(比值比[OR]=2.542,95%置信区间[CI]:1.304-4.954,P=0.005)。具体而言,与A等位基因相比,G等位基因降低了女性患宫颈癌的风险(OR=1.279,95%CI:1.012-1.617,P=0.043)。总之,我们的研究结果表明,miR-449a rs112310158是胃癌的一个遗传风险因素。
