Lack of association between miR-146a rs2910164 C/G locus and colorectal cancer: from a case-control study to a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Previous studies suggested that miR-146a rs2910164 (C/G) locus was predicted to influence the risk of cancer. However, the relationship of miR-146a rs2910164 locus with colorectal cancer (CRC) susceptibility was controversial. We recruited 1003 CRC patients and 1303 controls, and performed a case-control study to clarify the correlation of miR-146a rs2910164 locus with CRC risk. Subsequently, a comprehensive meta-analysis was conducted to verify our findings. In the case-control study, we suggested that miR-146a rs2910164 variants did not alter CRC risk (CG vs. CC: adjusted P=0.465; GG vs. CC: adjusted P=0.436, CG/GG vs. CC: adjusted P=0.387 and GG vs. CC/CG: adjusted P=0.589), even in subgroup analysis. Next, we conducted a pooled-analysis to identify the correlation of miR-146a rs2910164 locus with CRC risk. In this pooled-analysis, 7947 CRC cases and 12,168 controls were included. We found that miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism did not influence the risk of CRC (G vs. C: P=0.537; GG vs. CC: P=0.517, CG/GG vs. CC: P=0.520 and GG vs. CC/CG: P=0.167). Our findings suggest that miR-146a rs2910164 C/G polymorphism is not correlated with the susceptibility of CRC. In the future, more case-control studies are needed to confirm our results.

Project description:ObjectiveSeveral studies have shown that miR-146a rs2910164 (C > G) is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) susceptibility, but the results are still controversial. This study is divided into two parts, and one is to explore the relationship between miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism and the genetic susceptibility of T2DM in Chinese Han population. Second, a meta-analysis on the basis of a larger sample size was used to determine whether this is a susceptibility gene for T2DM.MethodsA case-control study including 574 T2DM patients and 596 controls was used to evaluate the association of miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism with the risk of T2DM in Chinese Han People. Then, we systematically searched studies investigating the correlation between miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism and T2DM susceptibility published before April 2022 from PubMed, Web of Science, Wanfang, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure database, and a meta-analysis including six studies was carried out. The results were expressed by odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (95% CI).ResultsIn a case-control study, we found that there were no statistical differences in genotype frequencies between T2DM and control group. Subgroup analysis showed that, compared with the CC genotype, CG + GG genotype was associated with a decreased risk of T2DM in the subgroup of individuals ≥ 65 years old (OR = 0.75; 95% CI: 0.58-0.98; P adjusted = 0.032) and BMI < 18.5 (OR = 0.16; 95% CI: 0.03-0.89; P adjusted = 0.037). In overall meta-analysis, significant heterogeneity was detected. No significant association between miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism and T2DM was observed in all genetic models under random effects models. Subgroup analysis revealed that there was a significant difference in genotype frequencies between the T2DM and control group in recessive model (CC vs. CG + GG: OR = 1.79; 95% CI: 1.08-2.96; PQ = 0.307, I 2 = 4.0%) and homozygote model (CC vs. GG: OR = 1.79; 95% CI: 1.07-3.00; PQ = 0.216, I 2 = 34.7%) in Caucasians.ConclusionThe results of our study demonstrate that the miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism might have ethnicity-dependent effects in T2DM and may be related to T2DM susceptibility in Caucasians.

Project description:AimTo systematically evaluate the association between the miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism and susceptibility to gastric cancer.MethodsA comprehensive electronic search was conducted for articles published up until January 27, 2014 in Medline (PubMed), Excerpta Medica Database (Embase), the Cochrane Library and Google Scholar. Only case-control studies published in English that evaluated the association between the miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism and susceptibility to gastric cancer were included. Furthermore, only studies with sufficient data allowing for calculation of odds ratio (OR) and corresponding 95% confidence interval (CI) were included. These values were used in the quantitative synthesis to assess the strength of the association between the miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism and risk of gastric cancer.ResultsThe database search identified 1002 eligible studies, of which seven (comprising 4112 cases and 5811 controls) were included for the meta-analysis. The results indicate that miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism is more likely to be associated with gastric cancer risk. In the overall analysis, a significantly increased cancer risk was found in the heterozygote (GG vs GC) comparison (OR = 1.14, 95%CI: 1.03-1.27; P = 0.01 for pooled OR). In the ethnicity subgroup analysis, a similar result was found among Caucasians (OR = 1.36, 95%CI: 1.01-1.85; P = 0.04 for pooled OR). In the stratified analysis by quality of studies, a significantly increased cancer risk was found in the heterozygote comparison among high quality studies (OR = 1.12, 95%CI: 1.01-1.26; P = 0.04 for pooled OR). When stratified on the basis of sample size, a significantly increased cancer risk was found among small sample size subgroups for the allelic (G vs C: OR = 1.16, 95%CI: 1.03-1.30; P = 0.01), homozygote (GG vs CC: OR = 1.33, 95%CI: 1.03-1.73; P = 0.03) and recessive model (GG vs GC + CC: OR = 0.05, 95%CI: 0.00-0.10; P = 0.03) comparisons.ConclusionThe miR-146a rs2910164 polymorphism is associated with increased gastric cancer risk, particularly evident in high quality studies with small sample sized Caucasian populations.
