A functional polymorphism in MIR196A2 is associated with risk and prognosis of gastric cancer
ReviewShizhi Wang et al.(2013)· Molecular Carcinogenesis

This comprehensive review analyzes microRNA-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in gastric cancer, focusing on the most commonly studied variants including pre-miR-146a rs2910164, pre-miR-196a2 rs11614913, pre-miR-149 rs2292832, and pre-miR-499 rs3746444. The paper reviews 45 studies examining associations between miRNA polymorphisms and gastric cancer risk, including 18 studies on rs2910164 showing conflicting results (OR range 0.81-1.58), 13 studies on rs11614913 with no overall significant association, and analysis of pri-miRNA, pre-miRNA, promoter, and 3'-UTR variants. Additional variants identified include rs712 in let-7 (OR = 3.05; 95% CI = 1.53-6.08), rs12904 in miR-200c (OR = 0.65; 95% CI = 0.50-0.85), and rs12537 in miR-181a (OR = 1.72; 95% CI = 1.36-2.16).

About VSIG4

This gene encodes a v-set and immunoglobulin-domain containing protein that is structurally related to the B7 family of immune regulatory proteins. The encoded protein may be a negative regulator of T-cell responses. This protein is also a receptor for the complement component 3 fragments C3b and iC3b. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, May 2010]
