Noncoding Genomics in Gastric Cancer and the Gastric Precancerous Cascade: Pathogenesis and Biomarkers.

ABSTRACT: Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer and the third leading cause of cancer-related death, whose patterns vary among geographical regions and ethnicities. It is a multifactorial disease, and its development depends on infection by Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), host genetic factors, and environmental factors. The heterogeneity of the disease has begun to be unraveled by a comprehensive mutational evaluation of primary tumors. The low-abundance of mutations suggests that other mechanisms participate in the evolution of the disease, such as those found through analyses of noncoding genomics. Noncoding genomics includes single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), regulation of gene expression through DNA methylation of promoter sites, miRNAs, other noncoding RNAs in regulatory regions, and other topics. These processes and molecules ultimately control gene expression. Potential biomarkers are appearing from analyses of noncoding genomics. This review focuses on noncoding genomics and potential biomarkers in the context of gastric cancer and the gastric precancerous cascade.

Project description:BackgroundGastric carcinogenesis is a multistep process initiating with chronic gastritis and progressing through atrophy, intestinal metaplasia, and dysplasia to carcinoma. This study aims to comprehensively investigate sociodemographic disparities in each stage of gastric carcinogenesis and estimate to what extent the inequalities could be ascribed to risk factors of gastric cancer (GC).MethodsWe used the baseline data from a community-based study in China's high-risk areas, totalling 27094 participants. Gastric mucosa status was ascertained by endoscopy and biopsies. An overall socioeconomic status (SES) variable was generated by latent class analysis. We calculated relative risks (RRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) using modified Poisson regression to assess associations of sociodemographic factors with each cascade stage. We estimated the percentage of the excess risk for neoplastic lesions among vulnerable populations that can be explained by established risk factors.ResultsAge and sex showed associations with all gastric lesions, whose RRs increased with lesion progressing. Compared with individuals without schooling, the RRs of neoplastic lesions for people with primary, secondary, and post-secondary education were 0·86 (95% CI 0·76-0·97), 1·00 (95% CI 0·88-1·13), and 0·70 (95% CI 0·47-1·03), respectively. Participants with medium SES had a lower risk of neoplastic lesions than people in the low SES group (RR 0·83, 95% CI 0·74-0·93). GC risk factors could explain 33·6% of the excess risk of neoplastic lesions among men and a small proportion of the disparities among SES groups.InterpretationAge and sex were essential sociodemographic factors for GC and precursor diseases. Individuals with low educational levels or SES were more likely to have neoplastic lesions. About one-third of the sex difference and a slight fraction of the socioeconomic inequalities could be attributed to included risk factors.FundingSanming Project of Medicine in Shenzhen, National Natural Science Foundation, and Special Project of Bejing-Tianjin-Hebei Basic Research Cooperation.

Project description:Objective:The clinical outcomes of gastric diseases such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer have been attributed to the interplay of virulence factors of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), host genetic susceptibility, and host immune responses. This study investigated the presence of cagA, vacA, iceA2, babA2, and oipA genes and their association with clinical outcomes. Methods:Chronic gastritis, atrophic gastritis, and intestinal metaplasia specimens were obtained from patients who underwent endoscopy and surgical resection between January 2017 and December 2018; specimens from gastric cancer patients treated between January 2014 and December 2018 were also added.

Conclusion:In this present study, we reported on the virulence genes of H. pylori infection to reveal their association with increased risk of chronic gastritis, precancerous gastric lesions, and gastric cancer. Precancerous gastric lesions with H. pylori vacA+/babA2+/oipA+ genotype increased the risk of gastric cancer.H. pylori), host genetic susceptibility, and host immune responses.
