Abstract
Aim:miRNAs play an important role in breast cancer (BC). Variations in miRNAs influence their maturation, expression and consequently regulation of their target genes. Materials & methods: In this study, single nucleotide polymorphism rs11614913 was genotyped in BC patients (n=300) and 230 controls by employing tetra primer amplification refractory mutation system PCR and Sanger sequencing (Macrogen Korea). Results: A significant difference was observed in the genotypes through co-dominant(χ2.#x00A0;=42.03; p<0.0001), additive(odds ratio [OR] =0.6441 [0.4887-0.8490, 95% confidence interval]; p<0.0019), dominant (OR=0.3996 [0.2809-0.5686], p<0.0001) and recessive (OR=0.2993 [0.1220-0.7347], p<0.009) statistical models showed decreased risk association of C allele with BC. Conclusion: Females having CT genotype are at higher risk of BC as compared with those having CC genotype.
