Functional PstI/RsaI polymorphism in CYP2E1 is associated with the development, progression and poor outcome of gastric cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1), an ethanol-inducible enzyme, has been shown to metabolically activate various carcinogens, which is critical for the development and progression of cancers. It has demonstrated that CYP2E1 polymorphisms alter the transcriptional activity of the gene. However, studies on the association between CYP2E1 polymorphisms (PstI/RsaI or DraI) and gastric cancer have reported conflicting results. Thus, the aim of the present study was to investigate whether CYP2E1 polymorphisms is associated with the development and progression of gastric cancer and its prognosis in Chinese patients.

Methods

A case-control study was conducted in which CYP2E1 PstI/RsaI and DraI polymorphisms were analyzed in 510 Chinese patients with gastric cancer and 510 age- and sex- matched healthy controls by PCR-RFLP. Odds ratios were estimated by multivariate logistic regression, and the lifetime was calculated by Kaplan-Meier survival curves. In addition, a meta-analysis was also conducted to verify the findings.

Results

For CYP2E1 PstI/RsaI polymorphism, C2C2 homozygotes (OR = 2.15; CI: 1.18-3.94) and C2 carriers (OR = 1.48; CI: 1.13-1.96) were associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer when compared with C1C1 homozygotes. Both C1C2 and C2C2 genotypes were associated with advanced stage, but not the grade of gastric cancer. Moreover, C2C2 genotype was identified as an independent marker of poor overall survival for gastric cancer. However, there was not any significant association between CYP2E1 DraI polymorphism and the risk of gastric cancer. In the meta-analysis, pooled data from 13 studies confirmed that the CYP2E1 PstI/RsaI polymorphism was associated with a significantly increased risk of gastric cancer.

Conclusion

CYP2E1 PstI/RsaI polymorphism is associated with increased risk of development, progression and poor prognosis of gastric cancer in Chinese patients. Pooled data from 13 studies, mainly in Asian countries, are in agreement with our findings.

Project description:BackgroundCopines-1 (CPNE1) is a soluble membrane-binding protein that includes two tandem C2 domains at the N-terminus and a C terminal A domain. Importantly, it is associated with the prognosis of various tumors, but there are only a few studies regarding the role of CPNE1 in gastric cancer (GC). This study aimed to explore the clinicopathological significance and prognostic potential of CPNE1 expression in GC.MethodsData from the TIMER2.0 and UALCAN were analyzed to assess CPNE1 mRNA levels in GC. The prognostic role of CPNE1 mRNA was examined via the Kaplan-Meier plotter. CPNE1 protein expression in tumor tissues was analyzed via immunohistochemistry of clinical samples from 99 GC patients. The relationship of CPNE1 expression with clinicopathological parameters and overall survival (OS) was evaluated using Cox proportional hazards regression models and Kaplan-Meier survival curves.ResultsCopines-1 mRNA levels were higher in GC tissues than in adjacent normal tissue (ANT) (p < 0.05). Further, high CPNE1 mRNA expression indicated poor OS (p = 9.4 e-10) and was significantly associated with first progression (FP) (p = 1.6 e-06) and post-progression survival (PPS) (p = 1.5 e-12). In addition, CPNE1 protein expression was higher in GC tissues than in ANT (p < 0.0001). Moreover, CPNE1 high expression was significantly related to advanced tumor-node-metastasis (TNM) stage (p = 0.004), lymph node metastasis (p = 0.003), and vascular invasion (p = 0.001). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that GC patients with high expression CPNE1 group had worse OS than low expression group (p = 0.003). Univariate analysis showed that age (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.992; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.009-3.934; p = 0.047), advanced TNM stage (HR = 4.941; 95% CI, 2.052-11.897; p = 0.000), tumor invasion (HR = 3.472; 95% CI, 1.349-8.937; p = 0.010), lymph node metastasis (HR = 8.846; 95% CI, 2.708-28.897; p = 0.000), vascular invasion (HR = 3.237; 95% CI, 1.521-6.891; p = 0.002), nervous invasion (HR = 2.324; 95% CI, 1.205-4.479; p = 0.012), and CPNE1 expression (HR = 3.464; 95% CI, 1.440-8.334; p = 0.006) were correlated with OS. In the multivariate analysis, age (HR = 2.514; 95% CI, 1.264-4.999; p = 0.009), lymph node metastasis (HR = 8.441; 95% CI, 2.553-27.906; p < 0.05), and CPNE1 expression (HR = 2.549; 95% CI, 1.051-6.186; p = 0.039) were significant prognostic predictors for GC.ConclusionsCopines-1 overexpression in GC is significantly associated with poor prognosis. Thus, CPNE1 levels may serve as a prognostic biomarker in GC patients.
