Venous blood leukocyte DNA was extracted using commercial GeneJET Whole Blood Genomic DNA Purification Mini Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). Genotyping of <em>ANRIL</em> gene rs4977574 polymorphism was performed by Real-time PCR method using TaqMan assay C_31720978_30. The reaction was performed on Quant Studio 5 DX Real-Time (Applied Biosystems, USA). Obtained data was analyzed using SPSS software package (version 17.0). The mean values between two groups were compared using Student’s t-test, between three groups – using one-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-hoc test. The risk of CCRCC onset depending on particular rs4977574-genotype was calculated using binary and multivariate logistic regression under different models of inheritance. P values &lt; 0.05 were considered as statistically significant.</p> <p><strong>Results of research.</strong> The analysis of results in total sample showed no difference in rs4977574-genotypes distribution between control and cancer groups (P = 0.216). This difference was almost significant (P = 0.053) in individuals with BMI &lt; 25 kg/m<sup>2</sup>. However, in persons with BMI ≥ 25 kg/m<sup>2</sup> the rs497757-genotypes frequency was significantly different between patients with renal cancer and control subjects (P = 0.002). It was revealed that minor allele G has a protective effect for CCRCC occurrence in subjects with BMI &lt; 25 kg/m<sup>2</sup> (OR = 0.300; P = 0.045 – for dominant model of inheritance). Significant results were also preserved after adjusting for sex, age and smoking habit (OR = 0.169; P = 0.031). The analysis of overweight individuals showed that the minor G-allele of <em>ANRIL </em>gene rs4977574 polymorphism, on the contrary, increased the CCRCC risk (OR = 4,552; P = 0.001 – for dominant model; OR = 2.036; P = 0.041 – for super-dominant model). The statistical significance of results was also maintained after adjusting for sex, age and smoking (OR = 4.202; P = 0.030 – for dominant model; OR = 3.785; P = 0.023 – for super-dominant model). It was also found that BMI (27.5 ± 4.2 kg/m<sup>2</sup>) in CCRCC patients with minor G-allele (genotypes AG and GG) was higher compared to AA-homozygotes (25. 2 ± 4.3 kg/m<sup>2</sup>; P = 0.028).</p> <p><strong>Conclusions.</strong> BMI affects the nature of association between <em>ANRIL</em> gene rs4977574 polymorphism and CCRCC development. Thus, the minor G-allele reduces the CCRCC risk in persons with normal weight. However, in persons with overweight, G-allele is associated with increased CCRCC risk. Also, there is link between <em>ANRIL</em> gene rs4977574 polymorphism and BMI in CCRCC patients. The BMI in minor G-allele carriers is higher compared to AA-homozygotes.</p&gt;}, number={2(14) квіт}, journal={Art of Medicine}, author={VolkogonА. D. and Harbuzova, V. Yu. and Ataman, A.
