Association between miR-27a rs895819 polymorphism and breast cancer susceptibility: Evidence based on 6118 cases and 7042 controls.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Polymorphism in miR-27a rs895819 has been associated with breast cancer (BC) risk, but studies have reported inconsistent results. This meta-analysis investigated the possible association between miR-27a rs895819 polymorphism and BC risk. METHODS:PubMed, EMBASE, Google Scholar, and the Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were systematically searched to identify relevant studies in English and Chinese. Meta-analyses were performed to examine the association between miR-27a rs895819 and BC susceptibility. RESULTS:A total of 16 case-control studies involving 6118 cases and 7042 controls were included. Analysis using five genetic models suggested no significant association between miR-27a rs895819 polymorphism and BC risk in the total population, or specifically in Asian or Chinese subpopulations. In the Caucasian subpopulation, however, the G-allele and AG genotype at rs895819 were significantly associated with decreased BC risk according to the allelic model (OR 0.90, 95% CI 0.84-0.97, P = .004) and heterozygous model (OR 0.89, 95% CI 0.81-089, P = .02), while the wild-type AA genotype was significantly associated with increased BC risk according to the dominant model (OR 1.13, 95% CI 1.03-1.24, P = .007). CONCLUSION:These results indicate that among Caucasians, the wild-type AA genotype at rs895819 may confer increased susceptibility to BC, while the G-allele and AG genotype may be protective factors. These conclusions should be verified in large, well-designed studies.
