HOTAIR and cervical cancer: Cervical cancer patients with rs920778 CT and TT genotypes exhibited a significantly higher HOTAIR mRNA expression level than individuals having the SNP rs920778CC homozygous genotypes [0.978±0.123 (n = 14) for CT genotypes and 1.441±0.193 (n = 5) for TT genotypes versus 0.560±0.089 (n = 24) for CC genotypes, P<0.001].
