This meta-analysis demonstrated that the rs4779584 and rs10318 polymorphism at 15q13.3 is a risk factor associated with increased CRC/CRA susceptibility, but these associations vary in different ethnic populations.
In two of the five genes originally associated with CRC, we found evidence for association in AAs including rs1862748 in CDH1 (OR(Add) = 0.82, P = 0.02) and in GREM1 the SNPs rs10318 (OR(Rec) = 60.1, P = 0.01), rs11632715 (OR(Rec) = 2.36; P = 0.004) and rs12902616 (OR(Rec) = 1.28, P = 0.005), the latter which is in linkage disequilibrium with the previously identified SNP rs4779584.
Common genetic variants (rs4779584 and rs10318) at 15q13.3 contributes to colorectal adenoma and colorectal cancer susceptibility: evidence based on 22 studies.

In conclusion, low-frequency UTR variant rs12915554 in the gene GREM1 was in relation to CRC susceptibility in a Chinese population and this variation might promote CRC development through enhancing GREM1 expression in a miRNA-mediated posttranscriptional manner.
The novel variants include p.Pro164Ser in an individual with soft palate cleft only and p.Gly61Asp in an individual with bilateral cleft lip and palate.
