Background: Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in pre-miRNAs may alter microRNA expression levels or processing and then contribute to the susceptibility of cancer development. We hypothesized that SNPs in pre-miRNAs may be association associated with the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC). Methods: We used genotyped four common polymorphisms (i.e., rs11614913, rs3746444, rs2910164, and rs2292832) in pre-miRNAs of 353 CRC patients and 540 healthy controls to investigate the association between the SNPs and the risk of CRC using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) genotyped four common polymorphisms(rs11614913, rs3746444, rs2292832 and rs2910164) in pre-miRNAs of 353 CRC patients and 540 healthy controls to investigate the association between them and the risk of CRC assay..Results: The rs11614913 CT, TT genotypes and T allele were associated with an increased risk of CRC compared with the CC genotype and C allele (CT vs. CC: OR=7.34, 95% CI, 3.76-14.34; TT vs. CC: OR=13.66, 95% CI, 6.76-27.6; T vs. C: OR=1.99, 95% CI, 1.63-2.42, respectively). Interestingly, using the rs2910164 GG genotype as a reference, the rs2910164 GC genotype was associated with an increased risk of CRC (OR=1.49, 95% CI, 1.02-2.18), whereas the rs2910164 CC genotype was associated with a decreased risk of CRC (OR=0.58, 95% CI, 0.37-0.93). When compared with the rs2910164G allele, rs2910164 C allele was associated with a reduced risk of CRC (OR=0.80, 95% CI, 0.66-0.97, P=0.02). significantly increased CRC risk were found to be associated with CT genotype (OR=0.136, 95% CI: 0.070-0.266) and TT genotype (OR=0.073, 95% CI: 0.036-0.148) vs. CC genotype of rs11614913, CT (OR=0.166, 95% CI: 0.037-0.735,) and TT genotype (OR=0.167, 95% CI: 0.038-0.729) vs. CC genotype of rs3746444, and GC genotype (OR=0.670, 95% CI: 0.460-0.977) vs. GG genotype of rs2910164. Unfortunately, there were no statistically significant differences between cases and controls in genotype of rs2292832. When compared with the alleles, significantly increased CRC risk were found to be associated with T allele (OR=0. 530, 95% CI: 0.413-0.613) vs. C allele in rs11614913. There were no statistically significant differences between cases and controls in alleles of rs3746444, rs2292832 and rs2910164.Conculsion: These findings suggest that rs11614913 and rs2910164 polymorphisms may be associated with the etiology of CRC.
