Abstract
Background: Adenoidal hypertrophy (AH) is commonly observed in childhood and closely linked to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). Despite the high prevalence of AH, its pathophysiological mechanisms remain incompletely understood. We attempt to explore this issue from a genetic perspective. Elevated levels of LINC00461 have been identified in OSA tissues. We aimed to explore the relationship between susceptibility to adenoid hypertrophy and LINC00461 gene polymorphisms.
Methods: We genotyped the LINC00461 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs933647 and rs201864123 in 546 AH patients and 574 healthy controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the association between the SNPs and AH risk. The SIPI (Susceptible-Infected-Protected-Infected) method was utilized to analyze SNP-SNP interactions between rs933647 and rs201864123.
Results: Our study found that the rs933647 GA polymorphism was associated with an increased risk of AH. Similarly, the T allele of SNP rs201864123 increased AH risk in southern Chinese children. Furthermore, SIPI analysis demonstrated an interaction between these SNPs associated with adenoid hypertrophy risk.
Conclusion: The LINC00461 rs933647 GA genotype and rs201864123 T variant may contribute to the susceptibility of AH in the child population of China.

期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Genetics publishes rigorously peer-reviewed research on genes and genomes relating to all the domains of life, from humans to plants to livestock and other model organisms. Led by an outstanding Editorial Board of the world’s leading experts, this multidisciplinary, open-access journal is at the forefront of communicating cutting-edge research to researchers, academics, clinicians, policy makers and the public.
The study of inheritance and the impact of the genome on various biological processes is well documented. However, the majority of discoveries are still to come. A new era is seeing major developments in the function and variability of the genome, the use of genetic and genomic tools and the analysis of the genetic basis of various biological phenomena.
