Association between long-chain non-coding RNASRA1gene single-nucleotide polymorphism and polycystic ovary syndrome susceptibility.

Objective To study the association between single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of long-chain non-coding RNA steroid receptor RNA activator (lncRNA SRA1) gene and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) susceptibility. Methods Sanger sequencing was used to analyze the genotypes of the lncRNA SRA1 gene rs801460, rs10463297, and rs250426 in 315 PCOS patients and 315 control groups. Results There was no correlation between lncRNASRA1gene rs801460, rs250426 SNP, and PCOS susceptibility (p > 0.05). The T allele at the rs10463297 locus of theSRA1gene has a lower risk of PCOS than the C allele (OR = 0.63, 95%CI: 0.50-0.79,p < 0.01). Among people with a BMI >= 26.5 kg/m(2), when carrying the TC genotype and CC genotype at rs801460, the risk of PCOS susceptibility was lower than the TT genotype (OR = 0.54, 95%CI: 0.33-0.89,p = 0.02). At different ages and BMI stratifications, there was a significant association between rs10463297 SNP and PCOS susceptibility (p < 0.05). Multi-factor dimensionality reduction (MDR) analysis results showed that age, BMI, rs801460, rs10463297, and rs250426 interactions constitute a "high-risk combination." PCOS susceptibility risk was 5.96 times that of a "low-risk combination" (95%CI: 4.14-8.56,p < 0.01).SRA1gene rs801460, rs10463297, rs250426 constructed TCT haplotype was associated with increased risk of PCOS susceptibility (OR = 1.66, 95%CI: 1.20-2.30,p < 0.01); the CTT haplotype was associated with a decreased risk of PCOS susceptibility (OR = 0.56, 95%CI: 0.36-0.87,p = 0.01). LncRNASRA1gene rs10463297 SNP was correlated with the level of lncRNA SRA1 in the peripheral blood leukocytes (p < 0.01). Conclusion From this study, we found that the lncRNA SRA1 gene rs10463297 SNP is associated with PCOS susceptibility.
