Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | epithelial ovarian cancer |
| ICD-0-3 | C56.9 |
| Methods | qPCR, Genotyping etc. |
| Sample | blood |
| Expression Pattern | differential expression |
| Function Description | we hypothesized that abnormal expression of HOTAIR and common variants of HOTAIR are associated with risk of Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We first evaluated the HOTAIR levels in 100 paired tissues of EOC patients and corresponding normal tissues. Results showed that the expression level of HOTAIR in EOC tissues was significantly higher than that in corresponding normal tissues. Then the genotyping analyses of HOTAIR gene was conducted in a Chinese population. The results indicated that rs4759314 and rs7958904 were significantly associated with EOC susceptibility. For rs4759314, the difference between the G allele (as the reference) and the A allele was statistically significant. For rs7958904, C allele was associated a significantly decreased EOC risk when compared with G allele. |
