Associations of P16INK4a promoter hypermethylation with squamous intra-epithelial lesion, cervical cancer and their clinicopathological features: a meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: To assess the associations of P16INK4a methylation status with low-grade squamous intra-epithelial lesion (LSIL), high-grade squamous intra-epithelial lesion (HSIL), cervical cancer (CC) and their clinicopathological features, a meta-analysis with 29 eligible studies was conducted. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated to assess the strength of the associations. Heterogeneity, sensitivity of pooled results and publication bias were also evaluated. Overall, there was an increasing trend of P16INK4a hypermethylation rates among LSIL (21.4%), HSIL (30.9%) and CC (35.0%) specimens. P16INK4a hypermethylation was significantly associated with the increased risk of LSIL, HSIL and CC, with the pooled ORs of 3.26 (95% CI: 1.86-5.71), 5.80 (95% CI: 3.80-8.84) and 12.17 (95% CI: 5.86-25.27), respectively. A significant association was also found between P16INK4a hypermethylation and smoking habit (OR = 3.88, 95% CI: 2.13-7.08). Taken together, meta-analysis results support P16INK4a hypermethylation as an epigenetic marker for the progression of cervical carcinogenesis.

Project description:Background: Promoter hypermethylation in death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1) gene has been long linked to cervical neoplasia, but the established results remained controversial. Here, we performed a meta-analysis to assess the associations of DAPK1 promoter hypermethylation with low-grade intra-epithelial lesion (HSIL), high-grade intra-epithelial lesion (HSIL), cervical cancer (CC), and clinicopathological features of CC. Methods: Published studies with qualitative methylation data were initially searched from PubMed, Web of Science, EMBASE, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure databases (up to March 2018). Then, quantitative methylation datasets, retrieved from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) databases, were pooled to validate the results of published studies. Results: In a meta-analysis of 37 published studies, DAPK1 promoter hypermethylation progressively increased the risk of LSIL by 2.41-fold (P = 0.012), HSIL by 7.62-fold (P < 0.001), and CC by 23.17-fold (P < 0.001). Summary receiver operating characteristic curves suggested a potential diagnostic value of DAPK1 promoter hypermethylation in CC, with a large area-under-the-curve of 0.83, a high specificity of 97%, and a moderate sensitivity of 59%. There were significant impacts of DAPK1 promoter hypermethylation on histological type (odds ratio (OR) = 3.53, P < 0.001) and FIGO stage of CC (OR = 2.15, P = 0.003). Then, a pooled analysis of nine TCGA and GEO datasets, covering 13 CPG sites within DAPK1 promoter, identified eight CC-associated sites, six sites with diagnostic values for CC (pooled specificities: 74-90%; pooled sensitivities: 70-81%), nine loci associated with the histological type of CC, and all 13 loci with down-regulated effects on DAPK1 mRNA expression. Conclusion: The meta-analysis suggests that DAPK1 promoter hypermethylation is significantly associated with the disease severity of cervical neoplasia. DAPK1 methylation detection exhibits a promising ability to discriminate CC from cancer-free controls.

Project description:Background: DNA methylation has been widely assessed as a potential biomarker for the early detection of cervical cancer (CC). Herein, we assessed the associations of SOX1 promoter hypermethylation with squamous intraepithelial lesion and CC. Methods: Published studies and genome-wide methylation datasets were searched from electronic databases (up to April 2019). The associations of SOX1 hypermethylation with high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesion (HSIL) and CC risks were evaluated by odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The summary receiver operator characteristic test was used to assess the diagnostic value of the SOX1 promoter hypermethylation of CC and intraepithelial neoplasia type III or worse (CIN3+). Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to evaluate the stability of results and estimate the required information size (RIS). Results: In this meta-analysis of 17 published studies, the SOX1 methylation rates increased among low-grade SIL (LSIL, 27.27%), HSIL (40.75%), and CC (84.56%) specimens. Compared with control specimens, SOX1 promoter hypermethylation progressively increased the risk of HSIL by 4.20-fold (p < 0.001) and CC by 41.26-fold (p < 0.001). The pooled sensitivity of SOX1 methylation was estimated to be 0.85 (95% CI: 0.81-0.88) in differentiating patients with CC, corresponding to a specificity of 0.72 (95% CI: 0.69-0.75) and an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.93. Furthermore, the pooled sensitivity of SOX1 methylation was estimated to be 0.75 (95% CI: 0.72-0.78) in differentiating patients with CIN3+, corresponding to a specificity of 0.71 (95% CI: 0.69-0.73) and an AUC of 0.84. The pooled results of TCGA and GEO datasets showed that all CpG sites in SOX1 were associated with CC and 16 of 19 CpG sites were associated with HSIL. The results of TSA illustrated that the size was sufficient and significant associations were observed. Conclusion: This meta-analysis indicated that SOX1 promoter hypermethylation might have a potential value in the clinical diagnosis of CC and CIN3+.

Project description:Background DNA methylation is an essential factor in the progression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) to cervical cancer. The aim was to investigate the diagnostic value provided by methylation biomarkers of six tumor suppressor genes (ASTN1, DLX1, ITGA4, RXFP3, SOX17 and ZNF671) for cervical precancerous lesions and cervical cancer. Methods The histological cervical specimens of 396 cases including 93 CIN1, 99 CIN2, 93 CIN3 and 111 cervical cancers were tested for methylation-specific PCR assay (GynTect®) of score and positive rate. Among them, 66 CIN1, 93 CIN2, 87 CIN3 and 72 cervical cancers were further used for paired analysis. A chi-square test was used to analyze the difference of methylation score and positive rate in cervical specimens. The paired t-test and paired chi-square test were for analyzing the methylation score and positive rate in paired CIN and cervical cancer cases. The specificity, sensitivity, odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) of the GynTect® assay for CIN2 or worse (CIN2 +) and CIN3 or worse (CIN3 +) were evaluated. Results According to the chi-square test trend, hypermethylation increased with severity of the lesions as defined by histological grading (P = 0.000). The methylation score above 1.1 was more common in CIN2 + than in CIN1. The DNA methylation scores in the paired groups of CIN1, CIN3 and cervical cancer were significant differences (P = 0.033, 0.000 and 0.000, respectively), except for CIN2 (P = 0.171). While the positive rate of GynTect® in each paired group had no difference (all P > 0.05). The positive rate of every methylation marker in the GynTect® assay showed differences in four cervical lesion groups (all P < 0.05). The specificity of GynTect® assay for detection of CIN2 + /CIN3 + were higher than high-risk human papillomavirus test. With CIN1 as a reference, the positive status of GynTect®/ZNF671 were significantly higher in CIN2 + : odds ratio (OR) 5.271/OR 13.909, and in CIN3 + : OR 11.022/OR 39.150, (all P < 0.001). Conclusion The promoter methylation of six tumor suppressor genes is related to the severity of cervical lesions. The GynTect® assay based on cervical specimens provides diagnostic values for detecting CIN2 + and CIN3 + .
