Neuroblastoma is a pediatric malignancy arising from the developing peripheral nervous system. p53 and downstream effector miR-34b/c have critical tumor suppressing functions. TP53 Arg72Pro (rs1042522 C &gt; G) and miR-34b/c rs4938723 (T &gt; C) polymorphisms have been known to modify cancer susceptibility. This study was performed to validate the association of these two polymorphisms and neuroblastoma risk with 819 cases and 1780 controls. Odds ratios (ORs) and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the strength of the associations. False positive report possibility analysis was adopted to dissect out real significant associations from chance findings. We found that both TP53 Arg72Pro (CG/GG vs. CC: adjusted OR = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.69-0.98) and miR-34b/c rs4938723 (TC/CC vs. TT: adjusted OR = 0.64, 95% CI = 0.54-0.75) were associated with decreased neuroblastoma susceptibility. Stratify analyses further confirmed the protective effect among some subgroups. Moreover, subjects with variant alleles of both polymorphisms were associated with more significantly decreased neuroblastoma risk (CG/TC vs. CC/TT: adjusted OR = 0.38, 95% CI = 0.28-0.50; GG/TC vs. CC/TT: adjusted OR = 0.43, 95% CI = 0.30-0.63) than those carrying variant allele of either one polymorphism (CC/TC vs. CC/TT: adjusted OR = 0.51, 95% CI = 0.37-0.69; CG/TT vs. CC/TT: adjusted OR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.55-0.92), suggesting cumulative effects of the polymorphisms. False positive report possibility analysis further verified that our findings are noteworthy. Overall, we confirmed that miR-34b/c rs4938723 and TP53 Arg72Pro conferred decreased neuroblastoma risk and two polymorphisms exerted stronger protective effects against neuroblastoma than either one alone.
