Objectives: Several studies have reported a correlation between the POLR2E rs3787016 polymorphism and cancer development, but findings are inconsistent. Therefore, we designed the current study to understand how rs3787016 polymorphism impacts cancer susceptibility. Methods: We searched the Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed databases for studies related to the topic of interest published up to March 2019. A total of 11 relevant studies, encompassing 8,761 cancer cases and 10,534 controls, were retrieved and subject to quantitative analysis. The strength of the relationship was evaluated using the pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Overall, the findings proposed a positive association between rs189037 polymorphism and susceptibility to cancer in homozygous (OR = 1.32, 95% CI = 1.11 - 1.57, P = 0.002, TT vs. CC), recessive (OR = 1.21, 95% CI = 1.06-1.39, P = 0.005, TT vs. CT + CC), and allele (OR = 1.12, 95% CI = 1.02-1.22, P = 0.021, T vs. C) genetic models. Stratified analysis showed that rs3787016 increased the risk of prostate and breast cancer. In addition, we found a significant association between the variant and increased cancer risk in Asian and Caucasian populations. Conclusions: In summary, the findings of the current meta-analysis suggest that the POLR2E rs3787016 polymorphism is an indicator of cancer susceptibility.

Background: RP11-108K3.2 was recently identified as a novel long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) transcript, and several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified in its coding region. This study aimed to explore the associations of tagSNPs in RP11-108K3.2 with the risk of colorectal cancer and their effects on its expression. Methods: A total of 821 colorectal cancer cases and 857 healthy controls were enrolled into this two-stage case-control study. Demographic characteristics and lifestyle information were collected by a validated questionnaire. Six tagSNPs were genotyped by using Sequenom MassARRAY platform. A total of 71 additional colorectal cancer cases were recruited, of which the genotypes of potential polymorphisms and the RP11-108K3.2 expression levels were determined. Results: In the discovery set, only the rs2470151 C/T polymorphism was found to have a promising association with the risk of colorectal cancer, and this polymorphism was further replicated in the validation set with a significantly decreased risk of colorectal cancer (adjusted odds ratio 0.73; 95% confidence interval 0.55, 0.97). Combined discovery set and validation set together, this negative association was found both in the heterozygote codominant model and the dominant model. Furthermore, colorectal cancer patients carrying rs2470151 CT/TT genotypes had a marginally lower RNA expression of RP11-108K3.2 than those carrying the CC genotype. Stratified analyses showed the association between rs2470151 and the risk of colorectal cancer were influenced by family history of cancer, smoking, alcohol consumption, and tea drinking. Conclusions: These findings suggest that RP11-108K3.2 rs2470151 had a significant association with the risk of colorectal cancer; this may help to predict the susceptibility of colorectal cancer in Chinese populations.

AbstractBackground: The role of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) HOXA transcript at the distal tip (HOTTIP) as an oncogene in varieties of human cancer including colorectal cancer (CRC) has been extensively researched. The expression and function of lncRNAs could be affected by single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which are associated with cancer susceptibility and prognosis. However, no investigation has focused on the association between HOTTIP SNPs and CRC. The aim of the present study was to explore the association of polymorphisms in the lncRNA HOTTIP gene with CRC risk and prognosis. Methods: A total of 1848 subjects were enrolled in our study, including 884 CRC cases and 964 controls. Genotyping for five HOTTIP tagSNPs (rs3807598, rs17501292, rs2067087, rs17427960, and rs78248039) was performed by applying Kompetitive allele specific PCR (KASP). Results: The results showed three SNPs (rs3807598, rs2067087, and rs17427960) were associated with enhanced CRC risk both in overall and stratified analysis. One polymorphism, rs17501292, could improve the overall survival (OS) of CRC patients in the tumor of ulcerative/invasive-type subgroup. Conclusion: These findings suggest HOTTIP SNPs could potentially be predictive biomarkers for CRC risk and prognosis. The present study provides clues for further exploration of novel lncRNA-based genetic biomarkers to predict CRC susceptibility as well as clinical outcome.
