Hospital-based case-control study in a Chinese Han population investigating SNPs in microRNA network genes and gastric cancer risk. The study genotyped 19 SNPs in 311 cases and 425 controls, identifying two significant associations: rs2071504 in POLR2A (OR=0.742, p=0.033) and rs895819 in miR-27a (OR=0.771, p=0.037), both showing protective effects against gastric cancer. The rs2071504 variant was additionally associated with lymph node metastasis (p=0.021) and TNM stage (p=0.021).
About RYR3
The protein encoded by this gene is a ryanodine receptor, which functions to release calcium from intracellular storage for use in many cellular processes. For example, the encoded protein is involved in skeletal muscle contraction by releasing calcium from the sarcoplasmic reticulum followed by depolarization of T-tubules. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
