ABSTRACT: Background
The purpose of this study was to survey the associations of six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the TMOD1 and PTCSC2 genes with thyroid carcinoma (TC).Method
Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 510 patients with TC and 509 normal controls. Six SNPs were genotyped by the Agena MassARRAY platform. Logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between SNPs and TC susceptibility by calculating odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). SNP-SNP interactions were analyzed by multifactor dimensionality reduction (MDR).Results
Our study showed that rs925489 (OR = 1.45, p = 0.011) and rs965513 (OR = 1.40, p = 0.021) were significantly associated with an increased risk of TC. Rs10982622 decreased TC risk (OR = 0.74, p = 0.025
