Mitochondrial DNA Content as Risk Factor for Bladder Cancer and Its Association with Mitochondrial DNA Polymorphisms.

ABSTRACT: Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) content has been shown to be associated with cancer susceptibility. We identified 926 bladder cancer patients and compared these with 926 healthy controls frequency matched on age, gender, and ethnicity. Patients diagnosed with bladder cancer had significantly decreased mtDNA content when compared with control subjects (median, 0.98 vs. 1.04, P < 0.001). Low mtDNA content (i.e., less than the median in control subjects) was associated with a statistically significant increased risk of bladder cancer, when compared with high mtDNA content [Odds ratio (OR), 1.37; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.13-1.66; P < 0.001). In a trend analysis, a statistically significant dose-response relationship was detected between lower mtDNA content and increasing risk of bladder cancer (Ptrend <0.001). When stratified by host characteristics, advanced age (>65 years), male sex and positive smoking history were significantly associated with low mtDNA content and increased risk of bladder cancer. We identified two unique mtDNA polymorphisms significantly associated with risk of bladder cancer: mitot10464c (OR, 1.39; 95% CI, 1.00-1.93; P = 0.048) and mitoa4918g (OR, 1.40; 95% CI, 1.00-1.95; P = 0.049). Analysis of the joint effect of low mtDNA content and unfavorable mtDNA polymorphisms revealed a 2.5-fold increased risk of bladder cancer (OR, 2.50; 95% CI, 1.60-3.94; P < 0.001). Significant interaction was observed between mitoa4918g and mtDNA content (Pinteraction = 0.028). Low mtDNA content was associated with increased risk of bladder cancer and we identified new susceptibility mtDNA alleles associated with increased risk that require further investigation into the biologic underpinnings of bladder carcinogenesis.

Project description:Background and objectiveThe X-ray repair cross-complementing group 1 (XRCC1) protein plays a crucial role in base excision repair (BER) pathway by acting as a scaffold for other BER enzymes. Variants in the XRCC1 gene might alter protein structure or function or create alternatively spliced proteins which may influence BER efficiency and hence affect individual susceptibility to bladder cancer. Recent epidemiological studies have shown inconsistent associations between these polymorphisms and bladder cancer. To clarify the situation, a comprehensive meta-analysis of all available studies was performed in this study.MethodsPubMed, EMBASE, and Chinese Biomedical Literature database (CBM) databases have been systematically searched to identify all relevant studies for the period up to February 2013. Data were abstracted independently by two reviewers and Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated. Subgroup analyses were performed mainly by ethnicity and smoking status.ResultsA total of 26 case-control studies, including 24 studies for R399Q polymorphism, 15 studies for R194W polymorphism, and 7 studies for R280H polymorphism met the inclusion criteria and were selected. With respect to R399Q polymorphism, significantly decreased bladder cancer risk was found among smokers (AA vs. GG: OR=0.693, 95%CI= 0.515-0.932, P=0.015 and recessive model AA vs. GA+GG: OR=0.680, 95%CI= 0.515-0.898, P=0.007, respectively). With respect to R194W and R280H polymorphism, significantly increased bladder cancer risk were observed among Asians (TT+CT vs. CC:OR = 1.327, 95% CI 1.086-1.622, P=0.006 for R194W, and AA+GA vs. GG: OR=2.094, 95% CI 1.211-3.621, P=0.008 for R280H, respectively).ConclusionsThis meta-analysis suggests that the XRCC1 R399Q polymorphism may play a protective role against bladder cancer among smokers. However, the XRCC1 R194W and R280H polymorphisms were both associated with increased bladder cancer risk among Asians. Further studies with larger sample sizes are needed to validate our finds.
