ObjectiveRisk for developing papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), the most common endocrine malignancy, is thought to be mediated by lifestyle, environmental exposures and genetic factors. Recent progress in the genome-wide association studies of thyroid cancer leads to the identification of several genetic variants conferring risk to this malignancy across different ethnicities. We set out to elucidate the impact of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on PTC risk and to evaluate clinicopathological correlations of these genetic variants in the Kazakh population for the first time.MethodsEight SNPs were genotyped in 485 patients with PTC and 1,008 healthy control Kazakh subjects. The association analysis and multivariable modeling of PTC risk by the genetic factors, supplemented with rigorous statistical validation, were performed.ResultFive of the eight SNPs: rs965513 (FOXE1/PTCSC2, P = 1.3E-16), rs1867277 (FOXE1 5’UTR, P = 7.5E-06), rs2439302 (NRG1 intron 1, P = 4.0E-05), rs944289 (PTCSC3/NKX2-1, P = 4.5E-06) and rs10136427 (BATF upstream, P = 9.8E-03) were significantly associated with PTC. rs966423 (DIRC3, P = 0.07) showed a suggestive association. rs7267944 (DHX35) was associated with PTC risk in males (P = 0.02), rs1867277 (FOXE1) conferred the higher risk in subjects older than 55 years (P = 7.0E-05), and rs6983267 (POU5F1B/CCAT2) was associated with pT3–T4 tumors (P = 0.01). The contribution of genetic component (unidirectional independent effects of rs965513, rs944289, rs2439302 and rs10136427 adjusted for age and sex) to PTC risk in the analyzed series was estimated to be 30–40%.ConclusionGenetic factors analyzed in the present work display significant association signals with PTC either on the whole group analysis or in particular clinicopathological groups and account for about one-third of the risk for PTC in the Kazakh population.

BackgroundThe long noncoding RNA HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) is highly expressed in breast cancer (BC) tissues and is associated with the recurrence and metastasis of BC. Until now, the results of studies on associations between several functional single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs) (rs920778, rs1899663, and rs4759314) in HOTAIR with BC susceptibility carried out in different regions of China are still inconsistent. There is no study on correlation between HOTAIR SNPs and prognosis of Chinese population. Therefore, we investigated the relationship between HOTAIR SNPs and susceptibility to and prognosis of BC.MethodWe conducted a population-based case-control study involving 828 BC cases and 905 healthy controls. Peripheral blood DNA was used for genotyping. The association between HOTAIR genotypes and BC risk were estimated by odds ratios (ORs) computed using the binary logistic regression model. The relationships between HOTAIR SNPs and clinicopathological features were tested by Pearson’s chi-square test or Fisher’s exact test. Survival was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.ResultsThe functional rs920778 genetic variant increased BC risk in the codominant model. Individuals with the rs920778 GG genotype had an OR of 2.426 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.491–3.947, P < 0.001) for developing BC compared to individuals with the AA genotype. Individuals with the AG genotype had an OR of 1.296 (95% CI = 1.040–1.614, P = 0.021) for developing BC compared to individuals with the AA genotype. Individuals with the rs4759314 GA genotype had a lower BC risk than individuals with the rs4759314 AA/GG genotype (OR = 0.566, 95% CI = 0.398–0.803, P = 0.001). The rs1899663 genotype had no correlation with BC susceptibility. Haplotypes composed of rs920778–rs1899663 and rs920778–rs1899663–rs4759314 could increase BC risk (all P < 0.001). There were no statistically significant associations between HOTAIR SNPs and clinicopathological characteristics. The rs920778 GG/AG genotypes were associated with worse disease-free survival (DFS) (p = 0.012), and the rs4759314 GA genotype was associated with worse DFS and overall survival (OS) (p = 0.011).ConclusionHOTAIR SNPs(rs920778 and rs4759314) are significantly related to BC susceptibility and prognosis in the northeastern Chinese population, indicating the significance in the occurrence and development of BC.
