Mir146a Polymorphism in Gastric, Colon and Rectum Cancers

Abstract

mir146a, a member of the microRNA family, plays an important role in the regulation of many biological pathways such as the regulation and differentiation of hematopoietic cells. The relationship between mir146a polymorphism and gastric, colon, rectum cancers have been investigated in Turkish population. Polymorphism in mir146a gene rs2961920 and rs2910164 have been determined in 212 patients (gastric: 73, colon:76 and rectum:63) and in 77 healthy controls by Real-Time PCR. Findings were evaluated by logistic regression and Khi (χ2) tests. The comparison of gastric, colon and rectum cancer patients and controls determined a statistically significant relationship for alcoholic drink consumption (p<0,05). There was statistically significant relationship between mir146a rs2961920 polymorphism and gastric and colon cancers in the investigated Turkish population (p<0,05). But, there was no significant relationship between rectum cancer and control (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant relationship between mir146a rs2910164 polymorphism and gastric, colon and rectum cancers (p>0.05). However, there was statistically significant relationship between this polymorphism and gastric cancer in GG+CG and CC genotypes when the gastric cancer patients and control group were evaluated for mir146a rs2910164 polymorphism (χ2: 5,49 p: 0,019). Similarly, there was statistically significant relationship between this polymorphism and gastric cancer in GG+CC and CG genotypes (χ2:5,39, p: 0,020). In this study, it is thought that by investigating the functions of microRNAs and their role in cancer, it may be promising in understanding the molecular pathology of cancer and in developing molecular targeted therapies.
