However, Yue
et al. (2011) reported that the rs2910164 GG genotype reduces miR-
146a expression and increases cervical cancer risk, suggesting that
although miR-146a acts as a tumor suppressor, the rs2910164C is
protective against the development of cervical cancer. In addition, in a
recent meta-analysis using 18 studies, Wang et al. reported that there
was no significant association of rs2910164 with the overall cancer
risk (Wang et al., 2012b)
