Association between miR-146a rs2910164, miR-196a2 rs11614913, and miR-499 rs3746444 polymorphisms and the risk of esophageal carcinoma: A case-control study.

Abstract excerpt

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of small, non-coding, and endogenous RNAs that regulate gene expression and over 50% of them are located at cancer-related genomic regions or fragile sites. According to previous studies there is significant association of miRNA single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) with tumorigenesis (e.g., esophageal cancer, hepatocellular cancer, gastric cancer, bladder cancer, breast cancer,...
