Impact of microRNA-34a and polymorphism of its target gene CA9 on susceptibility to uterine cervical cancer.

ABSTRACT: The purposes of this study were to associate the genetic polymorphisms in carbonic anhydrase (CA) 9 with uterine cervical cancer and identify the clinical implications. Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), rs2071676 (+201, G/A), rs3829078 (+1081, A/G), and rs1048638 (+1584, C/A), and an 18-base-pair deletion/insertion (376del393) in CA9 were examined. We used the Boyden chamber assay to evaluate the influence of CA9 on the migration of cervical cancers. Tissue microarrays were used to evaluate CAIX immunoreactivity and determine its clinical significance. The results revealed that the CA9 SNP rs1048638 is the only significant polymorphism that increases the risk of cervical cancer in Taiwanese women. We discovered that the CA9 SNP rs1048638 influences the expression of CA9 through the interaction between the 3'-untranslated region (UTR) of exon 11, where the SNP is located, and miR-34a, and influences the migration of cervical cancer cells. Moreover, we demonstrated that CAIX immunoreactivity is related to the occurrence of cervical cancer, and elevated CAIX immunoreactivity is associated with a more advanced stage. In conclusion, the finding that the CA9 SNP rs1048638 exerts its action through duplexes of the miR-34a and CA9 3'-UTRs and plays a vital role in cervical cancer in Taiwanese women may be applicable to translational medicine.

Project description:To investigate the association between the susceptibility to cervical cancer and the single nucleotide polymorphisms of 5 tumor necrosis factor-α promoter genes (rs361525, rs1800629, rs1800750, rs1799964, and rs673) in Chinese women. A total of 946 peripheral blood samples were collected from women of Han Ethnicity in Shandong province. Of them, 452 were diagnosed with cervical squamous cell carcinomas. The study also included a control group of 494 healthy women. The targeted single nucleotide polymorphisms were analyzed by TaqMan probe method. (1) The rate of high-risk subtype human papillomavirus infection in exfoliated cervical epithelial cells was significantly higher in patients with cervical cancer than the control group (91.4% vs 10.3%, P < .01). The rate of human papillomavirus infection was lower in patients with carcinoma in situ than those with invasive carcinoma (77.9% vs 95.4%, P < .01). (2) There was a significant difference for rs361525 genotype (CC/CT/TT) between the control, carcinoma in situ, and invasive carcinoma groups ( P < .001). Both rs1800629 and rs1799964 genotypes (both GG/GA/AA) were also different between these groups ( P < .001 and P < .001). (3) The allele frequencies of rs361525, rs1800629, and rs1799964 were significantly correlated with the diagnosis of cervical cancer. The frequency of T allele in rs361525 was significantly higher for cervical cancer group (10.8%) than control group (3.8%; odds ratio = 3.04, 95% confidence interval = 1.76-5.25, P < .01). The frequency of A allele in rs1800629 was significantly higher for cervical cancer (29.9%) than control group (14.2%; odds ratio = 2.58, 95% confidence interval = 1.87-3.56, P < .01). The frequency of A allele in rs1799964 was also higher for cervical cancer group (38.3%) than control group (16.4%; odds ratio = 1.43, 95% confidence interval = 1.07-1.91, P < .05). The rs361525, rs1800629, and rs17999645 were significantly correlated with the diagnosis of cervical cancer.

Project description:PurposeNumerous clinical studies have suggested that chemopreventive drugs for breast cancer such as tamoxifen and exemestane can effectively reduce the incidence of estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer. However, it remains unclear how to identify those who are susceptible to ER-positive breast cancer. Accordingly, there is a great demand for a probe into the predisposing factors so as to provide precise chemoprevention. Recent evidence has indicated that ERα expression can be regulated by microRNAs (miRNAs), such as miR-206, in breast cancer. We assumed that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the miR-206-binding sites of the target genes may be associated with breast cancer susceptibility with different ER statuses.MethodsWe genotyped the SNPs that reside in and around the miR-206-binding sites of two target genes - heparan sulfatase 1 (SULF1) and RPTOR-independent companion of mammalian target of rapamycin Complex 2 (RICTOR) - which were related to the progression or metastasis of breast cancer cells in 710 breast cancer patients and 294 controls by the matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry method. Modified odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated by a multivariate logistic regression analysis to evaluate the potential association between the SNPs and breast cancer susceptibility.ResultsFor rs3802278, which is located in the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of SULF1, the frequency of the AA genotype was less in breast cancer patients than that in the controls as compared to that of the GG + GA genotype not only for ER-positive breast cancer patients (adjusted OR =0.663, P=0.032) but also for hormone receptor-positive breast cancer patients (adjusted OR =0.610, P=0.018). Besides, the frequency of the AA genotype was less than that of the GG genotype between the ER-positive breast cancer patients and the controls (adjusted OR =0.791, P=0.038). For rs66916453, which is located in the 3'-UTR of RICTOR, no significant difference was observed between the case and the control group for the genotypes or alleles (P>0.05).ConclusionThe SNPs in the miRNA-binding sites within the 3'-UTR of SULF1 may serve as protective factors against the susceptibility to breast cancer, especially to ER-positive breast cancer in the Chinese population. These SNPs are promising candidate biomarkers to predict the susceptibility of breast cancer and guide the administration of targeted preventive endocrine therapy.
