Functional Variants in Linc-ROR are Associated with mRNA Expression of Linc-ROR and Breast Cancer Susceptibility.

ABSTRACT: Functional polymorphisms in Linc-ROR may change its ability of regulation by regulating Linc-ROR expression. However, these functional polymorphisms in Linc-ROR and their associations with breast cancer (BC) susceptibility were scarcely reported. In this molecular epidemiological study, four SNPs (rs6420545, rs4801078, rs1942348 and rs9636089) were selected in Linc-ROR by bioinformatics method. Unconditional logistic regression model was performed to analyze the associations between four SNPs and BC susceptibility adjusted for reproductive factors. Quantitative real-time (qRT) PCR was used to evaluate relative expression of Linc-ROR in plasma. The interactions of gene reproductive factors were assessed by Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MDR) method. A novel finding showed TT (OR: 1.7
