Background & Aims: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play an important role in the occurrence and progression of human cancers, including gastric cancer. Our hospital-based case-control study aimed to investigate whether four commonly studied single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have effects on susceptibility to gastric cancer in a Romanian population.Method: We genotyped the miR-27a rs895819, miR-146a rs2910164, miR-196a2 rs11614913 and miR-499 rs3746444 SNPs by real-time PCR using predesignated TaqMan assays in 430 individuals (142 gastric cancer patients and 288 age and gender matched cancer-free controls). The associations between the investigated miRNA SNPs and gastric cancer risk were assessed by odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) using logistic regression analysis.Results: A higher frequency of the miR-27a rs895819 CC genotype (OR 1.98, 95% CI: 1.05-3.73, p=0.036) was found in the patients with gastric cancer compared with the controls. Similar results were observed in a recessive model, the CC genotype was correlated with gastric cancer susceptibility (OR 1.95, 95% CI: 1.07-3.55, p=0.032). In the stratified analysis, the association between miR-27a rs895819 SNP and gastric cancer risk was limited to noncardia (OR 2.08, 95% CI: 1.10-3.94, p=0.027) and intestinal (OR 2.27, 95% CI: 1.05-4.92, p=0.042) subgroups. However, after Bonferroni correction, all associations described above lost statistical significance. No correlation was observed for the remaining SNPs and risk of gastric cancer in any genetic model studied.Conclusion: This study showed no association of the investigated miRNA SNPs with the risk of gastric cancer in a Romanian population.Key words:  –  –  – .Abbreviations: GC: gastric cancer; miRNA: microRNA; SNP: single nucleotide polymorphism.

Gastric Cancer Risk

Background. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes encoding microRNAs may play important role in the development of gastric cancer. It has been reported that common SNPs rs2910164 in miR-146a and rs11614913 in miR-196a2 are associated with susceptibility to gastric cancer. The published results remain inconclusive or even controversial. A meta-analysis was conducted to quantitatively assess potential association between the two common SNPs and gastric cancer risk.Methods. A comprehensive literature search was performed in multiple internet-based electronic databases. Data from 12 eligible studies were extracted to estimate pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI).Results. C allele of rs2910164 is associated with reduced gastric cancer risk in heterozygote model and dominant model whereas rs11614913 indicates no significant association. Subgroup analysis demonstrates that C allele of rs2910164 and rs11614913 may decrease susceptibility to diffuse type gastric cancer in dominant model and recessive model, respectively, while rs11614913 increased intestinal type gastric cancer in dominant model.Conclusion. SNPs rs2910164 and rs11614913 might have effect on gastric cancer risk in certain genetic models and specific types of cancer. Further well-designed studies should be considered to validate the potential effect.

Abstract Background: Non-coding RNA polymorphisms can affect disease risk and prognosis by influencing gene expression. Here, we first investigated the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) HOTTIP and gastric cancer risk/prognosis. Methods: A total of five HOTTIP SNPs among 627 gastric cancer cases and 935 controls were tested by Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR (KASP) assay. The functional SNPs underwent eQTL analysis and the expression of HOTTIP was assessed by quantitative RT-PCR. Results: The rs2067087 and rs3807598 SNPs of HOTTIP increased susceptibility to gastric cancer (rs2067087: dominant model, P=0.008, odds ratio (OR) = 1.35; rs3807598: recessive model, P=0.037, OR = 1.29). Both HOTTIP rs2067087 and rs3807598 could affect the expression of mature lncRNA (P=0.003 and P=0.032, respectively). Conclusion: The rs2067087 and rs3807598 SNPs of HOTTIP are associated with gastric cancer risk, possibly by affecting the expression of mature HOTTIP.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA biosynthesis genes DROSHA and DGCR8 were indicated to be correlated with cancer risk. We comprehensively reviewed and analyzed the effect of DROSHA and DGCR8 polymorphisms on cancer risk. Eligible articles were selected according to a series of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Consequently, ten case–control studies (from nine citations) with 4265 cancer cases and 4349 controls were involved in a meta-analysis of seven most prevalent SNPs (rs10719 T/C, rs6877842 G/C, rs2291109 A/T, rs642321 C/T, rs3757 G/A, rs417309 G/A, rs1640299 T/G). Our findings demonstrated that the rs417309 SNP in DGCR8 was significantly associated with an elevated risk of overall cancer in every genetic model. In stratified analysis, correlations of DROSHA rs10719 and rs6877842 SNPs were observed in Asian and laryngeal cancer subgroups, respectively. Moreover, associations of the rs417309 SNP could also be found in numerous subgroups including: Asian and Caucasian population subgroups; laryngeal and breast cancer subgroups; population-based (PB) and hospital-based (HB) subgroups. In conclusion, the DROSHA rs10719, rs6877842 SNPs, and DGCR8 rs417309 SNP play pivotal roles in cancerogenesis and may be potential biomarkers for cancer-forewarning.

BackgroundChronic gastritis along with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection has been implicated in inflammatory response-related genes linked to the causation of gastric cancer. Glutathione S-transferase Pi (GSTP1) plays a role in regulating oxidative stress and detoxification against carcinogenesis. In this study, we aimed to determine whether an antioxidant-rich diet is associated with gastric cancer risk and identify how this association could be altered by GSTP1 genetic variants.MethodsThis study included 1,245 participants (415 cases and 830 controls) matched for age and sex. The dietary antioxidant capacity was estimated based on the oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) incorporated with a semiquantitative food frequency questionnaire. Five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of GSTP1 (rs1695, rs749174, rs1871042, rs4891, and rs947895) were selected among the exome array genotype data.ResultsHigh dietary ORAC was inversely associated with gastric cancer (hydrophilic ORAC OR T3vs. T1, 95% CI = 0.57, 0.39–0.82, P = 0.004; lipophilic ORAC = 0.66, 0.45–0.95, P = 0.021; total phenolics = 0.57, 0.39–0.83, P = 0.005). The polymorphism rs1871042 increased the risk of gastric cancer (OR, 95% CI = 1.55, 1.10–2.16, P = 0.01, CT+TT vs. CC). A remarkably reduced risk of gastric cancer was observed among those who had a high dietary ORAC according to rs1871042 polymorphism (hydrophilic ORAC OR T3vs. T1, 95% CI = 0.36, 0.17–0.78, P for trend = 0.013; lipophilic ORAC = 0.58, 0.37–0.93, P for trend = 0.021; total phenolics = 0.38, 0.17–0.83, P for trend = 0.019).ConclusionsOur findings indicate that dietary ORAC intake may be inversely associated with the risk of gastric cancer altered by genetic variants of GSTP1, providing new intervention strategies for gastric cancer patients.

AbstractObjectiveThe purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between Interleukin 17 (IL-17) gene rs3748067 C>T polymorphism and gastric cancer risk through pooling the open published data.MethodCase-control or cohort studies relevant to IL-17 gene rs3748067 C>T polymorphism and gastric cancer susceptibility were systematic searched for in the databases of CNKI, Pubmed, Medline, Embase and Web of science. The association between IL-17 gene rs3748067 C>T polymorphism and gastric cancer risk were expressed with an odds ratio(OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI). Statistical heterogeneity across the studies was evaluated by I2 test. Publication bias was evaluated by Begg’s funnel plot and Egger’s line regression test.ResultsFinally, seven case-control studies were included in our present study. Because of the statistical heterogeneity among the included studies for the aspects of dominant (TT+CT vs CC), recessive (TT vs CT+CC) and homozygous genetic model (TT vs CC), the data was pooled by random effect model. The pooled ORs were OR=0.99 (95% CI: 0.65-1.52), OR =1.23 (95% CI: 0.73-2.06 ) and OR=1.14 (95% CI: 0.58-2.27) for dominant, recessive and homozygous genetic model respectively. The pooled data indicated no correlation between IL-17 gene rs3748067 C>T polymorphism and gastric cancer risk. Significant publication bias was found in the dominant genetic model (p<0.05), but not in recessive and homozygous genetic model (p>0.05).ConclusionBased on the present evidence, there was no correlation between IL-17 gene rs3748067 C>T polymorphism and gastric cancer susceptibility in all genetic model. However, for the small sample size, significant heterogeneity and publication bias, the conclusion should be further evaluated through well designed case-control or cohort studies.

Gastric cancer is the most common cancer and the most frequent cause of cancer death worldwide. Several studies have identified the role of thymidylate synthase (TS) 5′- and 3′-UTR and gastric cancer susceptibility; however, the results still remain inconclusive. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to reinvestigate this correlation. In the present study, online databases were searched to retrieve relevant articles published between January 2000 and 2016. The odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were employed to calculate the strength of association. Overall, a total of 13 articles were screened out, including 2382 gastric cancer patients and 3171 healthy controls. We found that polymorphisms of TS 5′-UTR 2R (double repeats)/3R (triple repeats) of a 28-bp sequence (11 articles) and 3′-UTR del6/ins6 (seven articles) were not significantly associated with increased risk of gastric cancer. Subgroup analysis by ethnicity showed that 2R allele and 2R/2R genotype in TS 5′-UTR were associated with gastric cancer susceptibility in Caucasian and African populations; del6 allele, del6/del6 and del6/ins6 genotypes were correlated with gastric cancer in Caucasian population. In conclusion, our result suggested that TS polymorphisms might be the risk factors for gastric cancer risk in Caucasian population, although this association needs further study, and future large-scale researches are still required.

Purpose. Genome-wide association studies have found two obesity-related single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs17782313 near the melanocortin-4 receptor (MC4R) gene and rs6265 near the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) gene, but the associations of both SNPs with other obesity-related traits are not fully described, especially in children. The aim of the present study is to investigate the associations between the SNPs and adiponectin that has a regulatory role in glucose and lipid metabolism. Methods. We examined the associations of the SNPs with adiponectin in Beijing Child and Adolescent Metabolic Syndrome (BCAMS) study. A total of 3503 children participated in the study. Results. The SNP rs6265 was significantly associated with adiponectin under an additive model (P=0.02 and 0.024, resp.) after adjustment for age, gender, and BMI or obesity statuses. The SNP rs17782313 was significantly associated with low adiponectin under a recessive model. No statistical significance was found between the two SNPs and low adiponectin after correction for multiple testing. Conclusion. We demonstrate for the first time that the SNP rs17782313 near MC4R and the SNP rs6265 near BDNF are associated with adiponectin in Chinese children. These novel findings provide important evidence that adiponectin possibly mediates MC4R and BDNF involved in obesity.
