Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: LncRNA HOTAIR plays an important role in many cancer. Several studies have shown that some HOTAIR SNPs might be associated with tumor risk in case-control studies, but the results are inconsistent and inconclusive. Therefore, it is necessary to better evaluate association between the HOTAIR SNPs and the risk of cancer. RESULTS: rs920778, rs7958904 and rs874945 but not rs4759314 and rs1899663 loci were...
