Wilms tumor is the most common pediatric malignancy in the kidney. The miR34b/c is a downstream target gene of the transcription factor p53. The important role of TP53 mutations, the methylation of miR34b/c, and the interaction between these two molecules in tumorigenesis have been well documented. Due to the biological connection between p53 and miR34b/c, in the present study, we investigated the association between polymorphisms in these two molecules and Wilms tumor susceptibility through genotyping two important functional polymorphisms (miR34b/c rs4938723 T&gt;C and TP53 rs1042522 C&gt;G) in 183 cases and 603 controls. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) derived from the logistic regression analysis were used to assess the correlation of miR34b/c rs4938723 and TP53 rs1042522 polymorphisms with Wilms tumor risk. Our results indicated that the association of miR34b/c rs4938723 and TP53 rs1042522 polymorphisms with Wilms tumor susceptibility was not statistically significant. Stratified analysis by age, gender, and clinical stage, as well as combined effect analysis were also performed, yet, no significant association was found. In conclusion, our study indicated a lack of association between the two selected polymorphisms and Wilms tumor susceptibility. Our findings need to be verified in studies with larger sample size in the future.
