A genetic variant in pre-miR-27a is associated with a reduced renal cell cancer risk in a Chinese population.

A genetic variant in pre-miR-27a is associated with a reduced renal cell cancer risk in a Chinese population.

BACKGROUND: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs to regulate cell differentiation, proliferation, development, and apoptosis. The single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs895819 is located at the terminal loop of pre-miR-27a. Here, we aimed to investigate whether SNP rs895819 was as...
