PARP1 gene polymorphisms and neuroblastoma susceptibility in Chinese children.

ABSTRACT: Neuroblastoma is a heterogeneous cancer frequently occurring in childhood. Germline mutations of PARP1 oncogene are implicated in several types of cancer. However, whether common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PARP1 gene are associated with neuroblastoma risk has received relatively few attentions. In this multi-center study, we aimed to elucidate the contributing role of PARP1 SNPs in neuroblastoma risk. We successfully genotyped three potentially functional PARP1 SNPs (rs1136410 A>G, rs2666428 T>C, rs8679 A>G) in 469 neuroblastoma cases and 998 controls. We did not detect any significant association between the analyzed SNPs and neuroblastoma risk in single SNP analysis. However, stratified analysis revealed that rs1136410 AG/GG carriers were more likely to develop tumors arising from mediastinum (AG/GG vs. AA: adjusted OR=1.65, 95% CI=1.06-2.56, P=0.028). Moreover, rs2666428 TC/CC carriers were at significantly lower risk to develop tumors from "other sites" (TC/CC vs. TT: adjusted OR=0.44, 95% CI=0.20-0.96, P=0.040). Our findings failed to provide evidence of the conferring role of the PARP1 gene polymorphisms in the risk of neuroblastoma. Further investigations of the association between PARP1 gene SNPs and neuroblastoma risk are warranted.

Project description:Hepatoblastoma is one of the malignant liver tumors in children. However, genetic mechanisms underpinning the initiation of hepatoblastoma remain largely unclear. The previous study showed that lin-28 homolog B (LIN28B) might play a role in the development of hepatoblastoma. To detect the association between LIN28B gene polymorphisms and hepatoblastoma risk in Chinese children, we conducted a five-center case-control study of 275 hepatoblastoma patients and 1018 cancer-free controls. Four potentially functional polymorphisms were genotyped using the Taqman method. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the strength of the associations. We found that the rs314276 C>A polymorphism (AA vs. CC: adjusted OR=2.05, 95% CI=1.36-3.10, P=0.0006; AA vs. CA/CC: adjusted OR=2.11, 95% CI=1.43-3.12, P=0.0002) and rs9404590 T>G (GG vs. TT: adjusted OR=1.89, 95% CI=1.20-3.00, P=0.007; GG vs. TT/TG: adjusted OR=1.87, 95% CI=1.20-2.92, P=0.006) were associated with increased hepatoblastoma risk. Combination analysis of risk genotypes showed that patients with four risk genotypes had a higher chance of developing hepatoblastoma than carriers of 1 to 3 risk genotypes. Stratification analysis showed the significant association between the rs314276 AA genotype and hepatoblastoma risk in both age and sex groups, as well as clinical stages III+IV cases. The rs9404590 GG genotype was associated with hepatoblastoma risk in participants' ≥17 months, in females, and for those with clinical stages III+IV disease. Furthermore, four risk genotypes confer higher hepatoblastoma susceptibility in both age and sex groups, as well as groups with clinical stages III+IV disease. Genotype-based gene expression analysis confirmed that the rs9404590 T>G polymorphism was significantly associated with altered LIN28B gene expression. We further validated our findings using false-positive probability analysis. This finding suggested that LIN28B gene polymorphisms may be associated with an increased predisposition to hepatoblastoma.
