Genetic variation at the microRNA binding site of CAV1 gene is associated with lung cancer susceptibility.

ABSTRACT: Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) may influence the genesis and development of cancer in a variety of ways depending on their location. Here we conducted a study in Chinese female non-smokers to investigate the relationship between rs1049337, rs926198 and the risk or survival of lung cancer. Further, we explored whether rs1049337 could alter the binding affinity between the mRNA of CAV1 and the corresponding microRNAs. Finally, we evaluated the relationship between expression level of CAV1 and prognosis of lung cancer. The results showed that the rs1049337-C allele and rs926198-C allele were the protective alleles of lung cancer risk. Haplotype analysis indicated that the C-C haplotype (constructed by rs1049337 and rs926198) was a protective haplotype for lung cancer risk. The result of luciferase reporter assay showed that rs1049337 can affect the binding affinity of CAV1 mRNA to the corresponding microRNAs both in A549 cell line and H1299 cell line. Compared with C allele, T allele had a relatively decreased luciferase activity. Compared with paired normal adjacent tissue or normal lung tissue, lung cancer tissue showed a relatively low level of CAV1. Refer to those patients at early stage of lung cancer, the expression level of CAV1 in patients at late stage of lung cancer was relatively low. In conclusion, the results indicated that rs1049337, it's a SNP located at 3'UTR region of CAV1 may affect lung cancer risk by altering the binding affinity between the mRNA of CAV1 and the corresponding microRNAs.

Project description:BackgroundRecent studies showed that overwhelming inflammatory response mediated by the toll-like receptor (TLR)-related pathway was important in the development of acute lung injury (ALI). The aim of this study was to determine whether common genetic variation in four genes of the TLR signaling pathway were associated with sepsis-induced ALI susceptibility and risk of death in Chinese Han population.MethodsFourteen tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) in MyD88, IRAK1, IRAK4 and TRAF6 were genotyped in samples of sepsis-induced ALI (n = 272) and sepsis alone patients (n = 276), and tested for association in this case-control collection. Then, we investigated correlation between the associated SNP and the mRNA expression level of the corresponding gene. And we also investigated correlation between the associated SNP and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) as well as interleukin-6 (IL-6) concentrations in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) exposed to lipopolysaccharides (LPS) ex vivo. The mRNA expression level was determined using real-time quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) assays, and concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).ResultsThe association analysis revealed that rs4755453, an intronic SNP of TRAF6, was significantly associated with susceptibility to sepsis-induced ALI. The C allele frequency of rs4755453 in the sepsis alone group was significantly higher than that in the sepsis-induced ALI group (P = 0.00026, odds ratio (OR) = 0.52, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.37-0.74). These associations remained significant after adjustment for covariates in multiple logistic regression analysis and for multiple comparisons. TRAF6 mRNA expression levels in PBMCs from homozygotes of the rs4755453G allele were significantly higher than that in heterozygotes and homozygotes of the rs4755453C allele at baseline (P = 0.012 and P = 0.003, respectively) as well as after LPS stimulation (P = 0.009 and P = 0.005). Moreover, the concentrations of TNF-α and IL-6 in cell culture supernatants were also significantly higher in the subjects with rs4755453GG genotype than in subjects with CG and CC genotype. None of the 14 tagSNPs showed associations with risk of death and severity among ALI cases.ConclusionsOur findings indicated that common genetic variants in TRAF6 were significantly associated with susceptibility to sepsis-induced ALI in Chinese Han population. This was the first genetic evidence supporting a role for TRAF6 in ALI.
