Functional polymorphisms in microRNAs and susceptibility to liver cancer: a meta-analysis and meta-regression.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that play a fundamental role in controlling a variety of biological functions. Emerging evidence has shown that common genetic polymorphisms in miRNAs may be associated with the development of liver cancer; however, several individually published studies showed inconclusive results. This meta-analysis aimed to derive a more precise estimatio...
متن کاملAssociation between the EGF rs4444903 polymorphism and liver cancer susceptibility: a meta-analysis and meta-regression.
Emerging evidence suggests that a common functional polymorphism, rs4444903 (A>G), in the EGF gene might impact an individual's susceptibility to liver cancer; however, individually published results are inconclusive. This meta-analysis aimed to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between the EGF rs4444903 polymorphism and liver cancer risk. A literature search was conducted in...
متن کاملCYP1B1 Polymorphisms and Susceptibility to Prostate Cancer: A Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND Studies investigating the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) and prostate cancer (PCa) risk report conflicting results. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship between CYP1B1 polymorphisms and PCa risk, a meta-analysis was performed. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS A comprehensive literature search was condu...
متن کاملGenetic polymorphism of N142D GSTO2 and susceptibility to breast cancer: a meta-analysis
To establish a comprehensive picture of the relationship between glutathione S-transferase omega 2 (GSTO2; MIM: 612314) gene N142D variant (rs. 156697) and breast cancer risk, the present meta-analysis was carried out. Studies published up to July 2012 with information about GSTO2 polymorphism and breast cancer risk were identified using several electronic databases. We identified 4 eligible st...
متن کاملGastric Cancer MicroRNAs Meta-signature
Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common types of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer-associated mortality. Identification of novel biomarkers is critical to prolonging patient survival. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) proved to play diverse roles in the physiological and pathological state in cancers including GC. Herein we were aimed at performing a meta-analysis on miRNA profiling studies ...
