Plasma Vitamin D Levels And Vitamin D Receptor Polymorphisms Are Associated with Survival of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:Vitamin D and its receptor (VDR) involve in multiple cellular processes and play an important role in the initiation and progression of malignancy. Thus we hypothesized that plasma vitamin D levels and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in VDR may be of prognostic significance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). METHODS:We examined plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] levels in 87 patients diagnosed with NSCLC using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and genotyped seven potentially functional SNPs in VDR in 568 NSCLC patients on Illumina Golden Gate platform. RESULTS:Patients with higher plasma 25(OH)D levels had worse survival than patients with lower ones (P for trend = 0.048). The SNPs of rs1544410 and rs739837 were independently associated with NSCLC survival (adjusted HR = 1.61, 95% CIs = 1.06-2.45 for rs739837 AA vs AC/CC and adjusted HR = 1.51, 95% CIs = 1.06-2.16 for rs1544410 AG/AA vs GG). A joint effect was observed between rs1544410 and rs739837 and the risk of death elevated as the number of unfavourable genotypes patients carried increased (P for trend = 0.003). There were no significant associations between VDR polymorphisms and plasma 25(OH)D levels. CONCLUSION:Our findings indicate that plasma 25(OH)D levels and genetic variants of VDR may serve as prognostic markers for NSCLC in this Chinese population.

Project description:Epidemiological studies regarding the relationship between vitamin D, genetic polymorphisms in the vitamin D metabolism, cigarette smoke and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) risk have not been investigated comprehensively. To search for additional evidence, the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) technique and radioimmunoassay method were utilized to evaluate 5 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in vitamin D receptor (VDR), 6 SNPs in 24-hydroxylase (CYP24A1), 2 SNPs in 1α-hydroxylase (CYP27B1) and 2 SNPs in vitamin D-binding protein (group-specific component, GC) and plasma vitamin D levels in 426 NSCLC cases and 445 controls from China. Exposure to cigarette smoke was ascertained through questionnaire information. Multivariable linear regressions and mixed effects models were used in statistical analysis. The results showed that Reference SNP rs6068816 in CYP24A1, rs1544410 and rs731236 in VDR and rs7041 in GC were statistically significant in relation to reduction in NSCLC risk (p < 0.001-0.05). No significant connection was seen between NSCLC risk and overall plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] concentrations, regardless of smoking status. However, the mutation genotype of CYP24A1 rs6068816 and VDR rs1544410 were also significantly associated with increased 25(OH)D levels only in both the smoker and non-smoker cases (p < 0.01-0.05). Meanwhile, smokers and non-smokers with mutated homozygous rs2181874 in CYP24A1 had significantly increased NSCLC risk (odds ratio (OR) = 2.14, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.47-3.43; p = 0.031; OR = 3.57, 95% CI 2.66-4.74; p = 0.019, respectively). Smokers with mutated homozygous rs10735810 in VDR had significantly increased NSCLC risk (OR = 1.93, 95% CI 1.41-2.76; p = 0.015). However, smokers with mutated homozygous rs6068816 in CYP24A1 had significantly decreased NSCLC risk (OR = 0.43, 95% CI 0.27-1.02; p = 0.006); and smokers and non-smokers with mutated homozygous rs1544410 in VDR had significantly decreased NSCLC risk (OR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.34-1.17; p = 0.002; OR = 0.26, 95% CI 0.20-0.69; p = 0.001, respectively). There are significant joint effects between smoking and CYP24A1 rs2181874, CYP24A1 rs6068816, VDR rs10735810, and VDR rs1544410 (p < 0.01-0.05). Smokers with mutated homozygous rs10735810 in VDR had significantly increased NSCLC risk (OR = 1.93, 95% CI 1.41-2.76; p = 0.015). In summary, the results suggested that the lower the distribution of vitamin D concentration, the more the genetic variations in CYP24A1, VDR and GC genes may be associated with NSCLC risk. In addition, there are significant joint associations of cigarette smoking and vitamin D deficiency on NSCLC risk.
