Genetic variants in p53 signaling pathway genes predict chemotherapy efficacy in colorectal cancer.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:The murine double minute-2 gene (MDM2) was originally identified as predicting chemotherapy efficacy. However, little is known regarding the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the p53 signaling pathway and prognosis/chemotherapy sensitivity in colorectal cancer. METHODS:We analyzed the association between 111 SNPs in 22 p53 signaling pathway genes and both progression-free survival (PFS) and disease control rate (DCR) using Cox regression and logistics regression analysis. The false discovery rate method was used for correction of multiple testing. Secondary structure was predicted by RNAfold. Expression qualitative trait locus analysis and mRNA expression differences were assessed using the GTEx and TCGA databases. RESULTS:We found that the rs747828 C allele of TP73 was significantly associated with reduced PFS (HR = 1.64, 95% CI = 1.27-2.12, P = 2.00 × 10-4 ) in the additive model. In the stratified analysis, the rs747828 C allele was significantly associated with both reduced PFS (P = 1.40 × 10-3 ) and DCR (P = 1.82 × 10-2 ) in oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. The secondary structure of TP73 was altered in response to different rs747828 genotypes. Although the rs747828 C allele was not associated with messenger RNA (mRNA) TP73 expression, it was significantly associated with increased mRNA TP73-AS1 expression levels in sigmoid tissues. TP73 mRNA was significantly overexpressed in tumor tissues compared to adjacent normal tissues (P = 2.36 × 10-19 ). CONCLUSION:Our findings indicate that functional genetic variants of TP73 mediate the response to chemotherapy in colorectal cancer.

Genetic variants of PDGF signaling pathway genes predict cutaneous melanoma survival.

Project description:To investigate whether genetic variants of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) signaling pathway genes are associated with survival of cutaneous melanoma (CM) patients, we assessed associations of single-nucleotide polymorphisms in PDGF pathway with melanoma-specific survival in 858 CM patients of M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC). Additional data of 409 cases from Harvard University were also included for further analysis. We identified 13 SNPs in four genes (COL6A3, NCK2, COL5A1 and PRKCD) with a nominal P < 0.05 and false discovery rate (FDR) < 0.2 in MDACC dataset. Based on linkage disequilibrium, functional prediction and minor allele frequency, a representative SNP in each gene was selected. In the meta-analysis using MDACC and Harvard datasets, there were two SNPs associated with poor survival of CM patients: rs6707820 C>T in NCK2 (HR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.35-2.59, Pmeta= 1.53E-5); and rs2306574 T>C in PRKCD (HR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.33-2.24, Pmeta= 4.56E-6). Moreover, CM patients in MDACC with combined risk genotypes of these two loci had markedly poorer survival (HR = 2.47, 95% CI = 1.58-3.84, P < 0.001). Genetic variants of rs6707820 C>T in NCK2 and rs2306574 T>C in PRKCD of the PDGF signaling pathway may be biomarkers for melanoma survival.

Genetic variants in the Folic acid Metabolic Pathway Genes predict outcomes of metastatic Colorectal Cancer patients receiving first-line Chemotherapy.

Project description:Background: The association between genetic variants in the folic acid metabolic pathway genes and survival, as well as the responses to chemotherapy of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients has not been reported. Methods: The association between genetic variants in the folic acid metabolic pathway genes and progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of mCRC patients were analyzed using Cox regression model. The false discovery rate (FDR) correction method was conducted. The logistic regression model was used to explore the effects of the interested genetic variants on disease control rate (DCR). The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was applied to compare gene expression differences. Results: We found that rs3786362 G allele of thymidylate synthase (TYMS) gene was significantly associated with PFS (P = 1.10 × 10-2), OS (P = 2.50 × 10-2) and DCR (P = 5.00 × 10-3). The expression of TYMS was overexpressed in CRC tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Furthermore, TYMS expression level decreased with respect to younger age and advanced tumor stage. Conclusion: Genetic variants in the folic acid metabolic pathway genes might serve as potential prognostic biomarkers for mCRC patients.

Genetic variants in the integrin signaling pathway genes predict cutaneous melanoma survival.

Project description:To identify genetic variants involved in prognosis of cutaneous melanoma (CM), we investigated associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of genes in the integrin signaling pathway with CM survival by re-analyzing a published genome-wide association study (GWAS) from The University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) and then validated significant SNPs in another GWAS from Harvard University. In the MDACC study, 1,148 SNPs were significantly associated with CM-specific survival (CMSS) (p ≤ 0.050 and false-positive report probability ≤ 0.20), and nine SNPs were validated in the Harvard study (p ≤ 0.050). Among these, three independent SNPs (i.e., DOCK1 rs11018104 T > A, rs35748949 C > T and PAK2 rs1718404 C > T) showed a predictive role in CMSS, with an effect-allele attributed adjusted hazards ratio [adjHR of 1.50 (95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.18-1.90, p = 7.46E-04), 1.53 (1.18-1.97, 1.18E-03) and 0.58 (0.45-0.76, 5.60E-05), respectively]. Haplotype analysis revealed that a haplotype carrying two risk alleles A-T in DOCK1 was associated with the poorest survival in both MDACC (adjHR = 1.73, 95% CI = 1.19-2.50, p = 0.004) and Harvard (adjHR = 1.95, 95% CI = 1.14-3.33, p = 0.010) studies. In addition, patients with an increasing number of unfavorable genotypes (NUGs) for these three SNPs had a poorer survival. Incorporating NUGs with clinical variables showed a significantly improved ability to classify CMSS (AUC increased from 86.8% to 88.6%, p = 0.031). Genetic variants in the integrin signaling pathway may independently or jointly modulate the survival of CM patients. Further large, prospective studies are needed to validate these findings.

Common genetic variants in Wnt signaling pathway genes as potential prognostic biomarkers for colorectal cancer.

Project description:Compelling evidence has implicated the Wnt signaling pathway in the pathogenesis of colorectal cancer. We assessed the use of tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) in adenomatous polyposis coli (APC)/?-catenin (CTNNB1) genes to predict outcomes in patients with colorectal cancer. We selected and genotyped 10 tSNP to predict common variants across entire APC and CTNNB1 genes in 282 colorectal cancer patients. The associations of these tSNPs with distant metastasis-free survival and overall survival were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier analysis, Cox regression model, and survival tree analysis. The 5-year overall survival rate was 68.3%. Survival tree analysis identified a higher-order genetic interaction profile consisting of the APC rs565453, CTNNB1 2293303, and APC rs1816769 that was significantly associated with overall survival. The 5-year survival overall rates were 89.2%, 66.1%, and 58.8% for the low-, medium-, and high-risk genetic profiles, respectively (log-rank P?=?0.001). After adjusting for possible confounders, including age, gender, carcinoembryonic antigen levels, tumor differentiation, stage, lymphovascular invasion, perineural invasion, and lymph node involvement, the genetic interaction profile remained significant. None of the studied SNPs were individually associated with distant metastasis-free survival and overall survival. Our results suggest that the genetic interaction profile among Wnt pathway SNPs might potentially increase the prognostic value in outcome prediction for colorectal cancer.

The p53-signaling pathway and colorectal cancer: Interactions between downstream p53 target genes and miRNAs.

Project description:INTRODUCTION:We examined expression of genes in the p53-signaling pathway. We determine if genes that have significantly different expression in carcinoma tissue compared to normal mucosa also have significantly differentially expressed miRNAs. We utilize a sample of 217 CRC cases. METHODS:We focused on fold change (FC) > 1.50 or <0.67 for genes and miRNAs, that were statistically significant after adjustment for multiple comparisons. We evaluated the linear association between the differential expression of miRNA and mRNA. miRNA:mRNA seed-region matches also were determined. RESULTS:Eleven dysregulated genes were associated with 37 dysregulated miRNAs; all were down-stream from the TP53 gene. MiR-150-5p (HR = 0.82) and miR-196b-5p (HR 0.73) significantly reduced the likelihood of dying from CRC when miRNA expression increased in rectal tumors. CONCLUSIONS:Our data suggest that activation of p53 from cellular stress, could target downstream genes that in turn could influence cell cycle arrest, apoptosis, and angiogenesis through mRNA:miRNA interactions.

Genetic variants of DNA repair-related genes predict efficacy of TAS-102 in patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer.

Project description:BackgroundTri-phosphorylated trifluridine (FTD) incorporation into DNA is TAS-102's main anti-tumor action. We tested whether genetic polymorphisms in homologous recombination (HR) and cell cycle checkpoint pathway for DNA repair is associated with outcomes in refractory metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients treated with TAS-102.Patients and methodsWe analyzed genomic DNA extracted from 233 samples of three cohorts: an evaluation cohort of 52 patients receiving TAS-102, a validation cohort of 129 patients receiving TAS-102 and a control cohort of 52 patients receiving regorafenib. Single nucleotide polymorphisms of genes involved in HR (ATM, BRCA1, BRCA2, XRCC3, FANCD2, H2AX, RAD51) and cell cycle checkpoint (ATR, CHEK1, CHEK2, CDKN1A, TP53, CHE1, PIN1, PCNA) were analyzed by PCR-based direct sequencing.ResultsIn univariate analysis for the evaluation cohort, patients with any G allele in ATM rs609429 had longer overall survival (OS) than those with the C/C variant (8.7 vs. 4.4 months, HR 0.37, 95% CI: 0.14-0.99, P = 0.022). Patients carrying any A allele in XRCC3 rs861539 had significantly longer progression-free survival (PFS) (3.8 vs. 2.3 months, HR 0.44, 95% CI: 0.21-0.92, P = 0.024) and OS (15.6 vs. 6.3 months, HR 0.25, 95% CI: 0.08-0.79, P = 0.012) than those with the G/G variant. In multivariable analysis, ATM rs609429 remained significant for OS (P = 0.020). In the validation cohort, patients having ATM rs609429 with any G allele showed longer OS and PFS; the G/A variant in XRCC3 rs861539 showed longer OS, though without statistical significance.ConclusionGenetic variants in the HR pathway may predict clinical outcome in mCRC patients receiving TAS-102.

Genetic Variants in Double-Strand Break Repair Pathway Genes to Predict Platinum-Based Chemotherapy Prognosis in Patients With Lung Cancer.

Project description:Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the associations of genetic variants in double-strand break (DSB) repair pathway genes with prognosis in patients with lung cancer treated with platinum-based chemotherapy. Methods: Three hundred ninety-nine patients with lung cancer who received platinum-based chemotherapy for at least two cycles were included in this study. A total of 35 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in DSB repair, base excision repair (BER), and nucleotide excision repair (NER) repair pathway genes were genotyped, and were used to evaluate the overall survival (OS) and the progression-free survival (PFS) of patients who received platinum-based chemotherapy using Cox proportional hazard models. Results: The PFS of patients who carried the MAD2L2 rs746218 GG genotype was shorter than that in patients with the AG or AA genotypes (recessive model: p = 0.039, OR = 5.31, 95% CI = 1.09-25.93). Patients with the TT or GT genotypes of TNFRSF1A rs4149570 had shorter OS times than those with the GG genotype (dominant model: p = 0.030, OR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.34-0.95). We also investigated the influence of age, gender, histology, smoking, stage, and metastasis in association between SNPs and OS or PFS in patients with lung cancer. DNA repair gene SNPs were significantly associated with PFS and OS in the subgroup analyses. Conclusion: Our study showed that variants in MAD2L2 rs746218 and TNFRSF1A rs4149570 were associated with shorter PFS or OS in patients with lung cancer who received platinum-based chemotherapy. These variants may be novel biomarkers for the prediction of prognosis of patients with lung cancer who receive platinum-based chemotherapy.

Genetic variants in RNA m<sup>5</sup> C modification genes associated with survival and chemotherapy efficacy of colorectal cancer.

Project description:BackgroundColorectal cancer is one of the most common malignant digestive tract tumors with a poor prognosis. RNA 5-methylcytosine (m5 C) is an important posttranscriptional widespread modification involved in many biological processes. However, the association between genetic variations of m5 C modification genes and the prognostic value of colorectal cancer remains unclear.MethodsWe investigated the association between candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 13 m5 C modification genes and colorectal cancer overall survival (OS) after chemotherapy by the Cox regression model. The combined effect of selected SNPs on OS, progression-free survival (PFS), and disease control rate (DCR) was assessed by the number of risk alleles (NRA). The GTEx and TCGA database were used to perform expression qualitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis.ResultsWe identified that two SNPs in YBX1 were associated with OS after chemotherapy (HR = 1.43, p = 0.001 for rs10890208; HR = 1.36, p = 0.025 for rs3862218). A striking dose-response effect between NRA and OS after chemotherapy was found (ptrend = 0.002). The DCR of patients receiving oxaliplatin chemotherapy in the 3-4 NRA group was markedly reduced in comparison to that in the 0-2 NRA group (OR = 1.49, p = 0.036). Moreover, YBX1 mRNA expression was significantly overexpressed in tumor tissues (p < 0.05) in the TCGA database, and eQTL analysis demonstrated that the two SNPs were associated with YBX1 (p = 0.003 for rs10890208 and p = 0.024 for rs3862218).ConclusionOur study indicates that genetic variants in m5 C modification genes may mediate changes in YBX1 mRNA levels and affect the chemotherapeutic efficacy of colorectal cancer patients.

Genetic variants in glutamine metabolic pathway genes predict cutaneous melanoma-specific survival.

Project description:Glutamine dependence is a unique metabolic defect seen in cutaneous melanoma (CM), directly influencing the treatment and prognosis. Here, we investigated the associations between 6025 common single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 77 glutamine metabolic pathway genes with CM-specific survival (CMSS) using genotyping datasets from two published genome-wide association studies (GWASs). In the single-locus analysis, 76 SNPs were found to be significantly associated with CMSS (P?<?.050, false-positive report probability?<?0.2 and Bayesian false discovery probability?<?0.8) in the discovery dataset, of which seven SNPs were replicated in the validation dataset and three SNPs (HAL rs17676826T?>?C, LGSN rs12663017T?>?A, and NOXRED1 rs8012548A?>?G) independently predicted CMSS, with an effect-allele attributed adjusted hazards ratio of 1.52 (95% confidence interval?=?1.19-1.93) and P?<?.001, 0.68 (0.54-0.87) and P?=?.002 and 0.62 (0.46-0.83) and P?=?.002, respectively. The model including the number of unfavorable genotypes (NUGs) of these three SNPs and covariates improved the five-year CMSS prediction (P?=?.012) than the one with other covariates only. Further expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis found that the LGSN rs12663017 A allele was significantly associated with increased messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels (P?=?8.89?×?10 -11 ) in lymphoblastoid cell lines of the 1000 Genomes Project database. In the analysis of the genotype tissue expression (GTEx) project datasets, HAL rs17676826 C and NOXRED1 rs8012548 G alleles were significantly associated with their mRNA expression levels in sun-exposed skin of the lower leg (P?=?6.62?×?10-6 and 1.37?×?10-7 , respectively) and in sun-not-exposed suprapubic skin (P?<?.001 and 1.43?×?10-8 , respectively). Taken together, these genetic variants of glutamine-metabolic pathway genes may be promising predictors of survival in patients with CM.

Genetic variants in CCL5 and CCR5 genes and serum VEGF-A levels predict efficacy of bevacizumab in metastatic colorectal cancer patients.

Project description:Early VEGF-A reduction (EVR) by targeting abundant VEGF-A is a potential predictive marker of bevacizumab (BEV). The CCL5/CCR5 axis modulates VEGF-A production via endothelial progenitor cells migration. We tested whether genetic polymorphisms in the CCL5/CCR5 pathway could predict efficacy of BEV in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) in a first-line setting. Genomic DNA was extracted from 215 samples from three independent cohorts: 61 patients receiving FOLFOX+BEV (evaluation cohort); 83 patients receiving FOLFOX (control cohort); 71 patients receiving FOLFOX/XELOX+BEV (exploratory cohort) for validation and serum biochemistry assay (n = 48). Single nucleotide polymorphisms of genes in the CCL5/CCR5 pathway were analyzed by PCR-based direct sequencing. Considering the unbalanced distribution of patient baseline characteristics between the evaluation and control cohorts, propensity score matching analysis was performed. Serum VEGF-A levels during treatment were measured using ELISA. Among the evaluation and control cohorts, patients with any CCL5 rs2280789 G allele had longer progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) when receiving FOLFOX+BEV than FOLFOX (PFS: 19.8 vs. 11.0 months, HR 0.44, 95%CI: 0.24-0.83, p = 0.004; OS: 41.8 vs. 24.5 months, HR: 0.50, 95%CI: 0.26-0.95, p = 0.024). No significant difference was shown in patients with the A/A variant. In the exploratory cohort, CCL5 rs2280789 G alleles were associated with higher VEGF-A levels at baseline and a greater decrease in VEGF-A levels at day 14 compared to the A/A variant. CCL5 and CCR5 impact the angiogenic environment, and the genotypes in CCL5/CCR5 genes may identify specific populations who will benefit from BEV in first-line treatment for mCRC.
