Previous genome-wide association studies have identified that the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism is associated with the risk of several types of cancer.
Expression of LINC00673 was significantly higher in adjacent normal tissues than in paired cancer tissues (<i>P</i><0.001) and significantly lower in the cancer or paired adjacent normal tissues of GC patients with rs11655237 allele A than in those with rs11655237 allele G (<i>P</i><0.001).
Expression of LINC00673 was significantly higher in adjacent normal tissues than in paired cancer tissues ( P < .01) and significantly lower in the cancer or paired adjacent normal tissues of patients with cervical cancer having rs11655237 allele A than in those having rs11655237 allele G ( P < .001).
Previous genome-wide association studies (GWASs) identified the <i>LINC00673</i> rs11655237 C>T polymorphism to be associated with the susceptibility of several malignant tumors.
