Abstract Previously, we have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs7958904 and rs4759314 in long non-coding RNA HOX transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) were significantly associated with risk of colorectal and gastric cancer, respectively. Here, we aimed to investigate the association between HOTAIR SNPs and cervical cancer (CC) susceptibility. A total of 1209 cases and 1348 controls were enrolled for association study and genotyped with TaqMan allelic discrimination method. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was utilized for in vivo analysis of allele-specific HOTAIR expression. MTT assay was employed for evaluation of allele-specific cell proliferation. The rs7958904 CC genotype was related to an increased risk of cervical cancer compared with the GG/GC genotypes (OR = 1.57, 95% CI = 1.10–2.25). TCGA database showed the CC tissues with rs7958904 CC genotype had higher HOTAIR expression than those with GG genotype (P = 0.046). MTT assay demonstrated a growth-promoting role of rs7958904 C allele on CC cells. Further functional studies on the effect of rs7958904 on biological behavior of CC cells are needed to confirm and extend our findings. In conclusion, HOTAIR rs7958904 might influence CC susceptibility through modulation of CC cell proliferation, and could serve as a diagnostic biomarker. |
