Association Between LIN28A Gene Polymorphisms and Glioma Susceptibility in Chinese Children.

ABSTRACT: Gliomas are the most prevalent brain tumors among children and adolescents. The occurrence and development of various malignant tumors is closely related with LIN28A gene, but its relationship with glioma susceptibility has not been widely discovered. In this case-control study, we conducted four single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs3811464 G>A, rs3811463 T>C, rs34787247 G>A, and rs11247957 G>A) of LIN28A gene to investigate whether they increase the risk of glioma. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate their relationship. There was no significant correlation between four SNPs and glioma risk in single polymorphism and conjoint analysis. However, in stratification analysis, we found that rs3811463 TC/CC may add to the risk of glioma w
