Popis: Abstract Objective Recent studies have indicated that HOTTIP and MEG3 are associated with the initiation and progression of various types of tumors, including nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC). This investigation aimed to elucidate the impact of HOTTIP and MEG3 polymorphisms on the susceptibility and clinicopathologic characteristics of NPC. Methods This research employed next-generation sequencing and multiplex PCR to assess the polymorphisms of HOTTIP rs1859168 and MEG3 rs7158663 in 200 NPC and 200 healthy individuals respectively. HOTTIP and MEG3 expression were assessed via qRT-PCR assessment. Furthermore, the genotypes and alleles frequency of rs1859168 and rs7158663 were compared between healthy and NPC individuals to elucidate their influence on NPC susceptibility and relation with clinicopathologic characteristics. Results In comparison with the healthy cohort, the presence of HOTTIP rs1859168 CC genotype and the C allele were markedly linked with increased NPC incidence (p
