Abstract

MicroRNAs bind to the 3′ untranslated regions of mRNAs, affecting translation, tumorigenesis, and apoptosis. This study evaluated the role of TYMS (rs1059394, C > T, and rs2847153, G > A), RYR3 (rs1044129, G > A), KIAA0423 (rs1053667, T > C), and GOLGA7 (rs11337, G > T) polymorphisms for assessment of glioma risk and prognosis among the Chinese Han population. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms were assessed in 605 glioma patients and 1,300 controls. We found a significant correlation between rs1059394 and glioma susceptibility in the homozygote and dominant genetic models (TT versus CC, odds ratio [OR] = 0.71, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.52–0.97, p = 0.03; CT+TT versus CC, OR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.55–0.99, p = 0.04). The results of the Kaplan-Meier and log rank tests revealed that the rs11337 GG genotype correlated with better overall survival of glioma patients (p = 0.017) than the GT genotype. Multivariate Cox regression analysis results also showed that the rs11337 GT genotype correlated with worse overall survival (p = 0.017, hazard ratio [HR] = 1.25, 95% CI = 1.04–1.5) than the GG genotype. These results suggest that GOLGA7 (rs11337) polymorphism may play a role in the prognosis of glioma patients and that TYMS (rs1059394) is associated with glioma risk.
