MiR-100 rs1834306 A>G Increases Biliary Atresia Risk in Southern Han Chinese Children
BACKGROUND: Biliary atresia (BA) is a type of severe cholestatic childhood disease that may have a genetic component. miR-100 plays a key role in regulating cell apoptosis, proliferation, and inflammatory reactions. A single-nucleotide polymorphism in miR-100 has been proven to modulate susceptibili...

Sumario: | BACKGROUND: Biliary atresia (BA) is a type of severe cholestatic childhood disease that may have a genetic component. miR-100 plays a key role in regulating cell apoptosis, proliferation, and inflammatory reactions. A single-nucleotide polymorphism in miR-100 has been proven to modulate susceptibility to various diseases. METHODS: We conducted a case-control retrospective study to explore the correlation between miR-100 gene polymorphism (rs1834306 A>G) and biliary atresia susceptibility in 484 Chinese patients and 1445 matched control subjects. RESULTS: Our results showed that rs1834306 A>G was correlated with a significantly increased risk for BA (GG vs. AA: adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 1.44, 95%confidence interval (CI) = 1.02–2.03, p = 0.041; and GG vs. AA/AG: adjusted OR = 1.39, 95%CI = 1.02–1.89, p = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS: Our results showed that the rs1834306 A>G polymorphism is associated with an increased risk for BA and contributes to BA susceptibility. |
