MicroRNAs (miRNAs) participate in diverse biological pathways and may act as oncogenes or tumor suppressors. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNAs (MirSNPs) might promote carcinogenesis by affecting miRNA function and/or maturation; however, the association between MirSNPs reported and cancer risk remain inconsistent. Here, we investigated the association between nine common MirSNPs and cancer risk using data from large scale case-control studies. Eight precursor-miRNA (pre-miRNA) SNPs (rs2043556/miR-605, rs3746444/miR-499a/b, rs4919510/miR-608, rs2910164/miR-146a, rs11614913/miR-196a2, rs895819/miR-27a, rs2292832/miR-149, rs6505162/miR-423) and one primary-miRNA (pri-miRNA) SNP (rs1834306/miR-100) were analyzed in 16399 cases and 21779 controls from seven published studies in eight common cancers. With a novel statistic, Cross phenotype meta-analysis (CPMA) of the association of MirSNPs with multiple phenotypes indicated rs2910164 C ( P  = 1.11E-03), rs2043556 C ( P  = 0.0165), rs6505162 C ( P  = 2.05E-03) and rs895819 ( P  = 0.0284) were associated with a significant overall risk of cancer. In conclusion, MirSNPs might affect an individual's susceptibility to various types of cancer.
