Abstract
Background: miR-155 is overexpressed in many cancers, highlighting its potential as a biomarker for cancer diagnosis, treatment, and therapeutic evaluation. miR-155 is processed from the miR-155 host gene (MIR155HG). Genetic variations in MIR155HG may influence cancer susceptibility, but existing evidence is inconclusive. This study aimed to evaluate the association of MIR155HG polymorphisms with cancer risk.
Material/methods: A systematic literature search identified 15 case-control studies on three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): rs767649 (T > A), rs928883 (G > A), and rs1893650 (T > C). Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4, with odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) as effect measures.
Results: No significant association was observed for rs767649 and rs928883 in overall cancer analysis. However, subgroup analysis revealed rs767649 increased susceptibility to respiratory, digestive, and reproductive cancers, while reducing cancer risk after excluding reproductive cancers. rs928883 showed a protective effect for digestive cancers. rs1893650 was not significantly associated with cancer risk.
Conclusion: MIR155HG polymorphisms influence susceptibility to specific cancer subtypes, particularly respiratory and digestive cancers. These findings underscore the importance of genetic and environmental factors in cancer risk and warrant further investigation.

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.
