Association of four common SNPs in microRNA polymorphisms with the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract excerpt

We conducted a case-control study to investigate genetic variants of miR-146a rs2910164, miR-196a2 rs11614913, miR-149 rs2292832 and miR-499 rs3746444 in the development of HCC in a Chinese population. This case-control study included 266 HCC patients and 266 control subjects between January 2012 and December 2013. Conditional logistical regression analysis indicated that TT genotype and T allele of miR-196a2...
