Associations between TAB2 Gene Polymorphisms and Epithelial Ovarian Cancer in a Chinese Population.

ABSTRACT: Background:Epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is highly lethal worldwide. Factors involved in the inflammation and hormone-associated signaling pathway play vital roles in EOC carcinogenesis. The transforming growth factor-?- (TGF-?-) activated kinase 1 (MAP3K7) binding protein 2 (TAB2), mediating convergence of inflammatory and estrogen, may be implicated in EOC. The present study is aimed at exploring the association between the TAB2 gene polymorphisms and EOC. Methods:Three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs237028, rs521845, and rs652921) of TAB2 were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 221 patients and 252 healthy controls. Associations between SNPs and clinical characteristics were performed either with the ? 2 test or with Fisher's exact test. The Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazard models were used to detect associations between genotypes and overall survival. Results:The rs237028 polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of EOC with an allelic genetic model (A vs. G; OR = 1.45; 95%CI = 1.07-1.96; P = 0.016), dominant genetic model (AA vs. AG-GG; OR = 1.66; CI 1.14-2.41; P = 0.008), and overdominant genetic model (AA-GG vs. AG; OR = 1.60; CI 1.08-2.36; P = 0.017). However, no significant association was observed between rs237028 polymorphism and overall survival. Conclusions:Our study indicated that the rs237028 polymorphism in the TAB2 gene was associated with EOC susceptibility and the TAB2 gene might contribute to the initiation of EOC.

Project description:BackgroundEpithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) is highly lethal gynecological cancer. Forkhead Box Protein C2 (FOXC2) promotes occurrence and development of various malignant tumors. The present study is aimed at exploring the correlation between the polymorphism of FOXC2 and epithelial ovarian cancer susceptibility in Chinese Han population.MethodsA case-control design was used to verify the association between FOXC2 polymorphisms and epithelial ovarian cancer. The genotyping was performed using Taqman® SNP Genotyping kit by qRT-PCR. The genetic variants including rs3751794 C > T, rs1035550 A > G, rs4843163 C > G and rs4843396 C > T in FOXC2 gene were analyzed. The strength of the associations was detected using odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals. Stratification analyses showed the association between the FOXC2 gene polymorphisms rs3751794 C > T, rs4843163 C > G and rs4843396 C > T with epithelial ovarian cancer susceptibility in terms of age, metastasis status, clinical stage, pathological grade, pregnant times, pausimenia, and the expression of ER, PR, wild p53 and mutant p53.ResultsRs3751794 C > T (P = 0.0016), rs4843163 C > G (P < 0.0001) and rs4843396 C > T (P < 0.0001) were significantly associated with increased epithelial ovarian cancer risk. In stratification analyses,rs3751794 C > T, was identified to be dominant in no metastasis patients, clinical stage 4 group, middle grade pathological stage, pregnant time over 3 patients, post-menopause women, strong wild type p53 expression; rs4843163 C > G was dominant in high grade clinical stage, high grade pathological stage, post-menopause women, strong ER expression group and no mutant p53 expression group; rs4843396 C > T was dominant in high grade clinical stage, high grade pathological stage, strong ER expression group. The rs1035550 A > G was not related to epithelial ovarian cancer susceptibility.ConclusionsThe results of the current study verified that FOXC2 gene polymorphisms were associated with increased epithelial ovarian cancer risk and suggested that FOXC2 gene polymorphisms might be a potential biomarker for epithelial ovarian cancer susceptibility.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the potential correlation between piwi-like RNA-mediated gene silencing 1 (PIWIL1) polymorphisms and susceptibility to epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC).MethodsA case-control study was conducted to evaluate the susceptibility of EOC using multinomial logistic regression analysis. The study analyzed the relationship between five functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the PIWIL1 gene and EOC risk. Genotyping of 288 cases and 361 healthy samples from South China was identified using a TaqMan assay. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the relationship between the five selected SNPs and EOC susceptibility.ResultsAmong the five SNPs analyzed, the rs10848087 G > A and rs7957349 G > C variants significantly increased the susceptibility of EOC, rs10773771 C > T was associated with a decreased risk of EOC, while the rs35997018 and rs1106042 variants were not in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (p < 0.05). The rs10848087 G > A was significantly associated with increased risk of EOC in individuals with metastasis, FIGO stage I and III, low and high pathological grade, tumor numbers ≤ 3 and > 3, tumor size > 3 cm and ≤ 3 cm, pregnant more than 3 times, pre-menopausal status, and strong positive expression of ER (estrogen receptor), PR (progesterone receptor), PAX8 (paired-box 8), wild-type p53 (tumor protein 53), WT1 (Wilm's tumor gene), P16 (cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A). In addition, rs10848087 G > A enhanced the EOC risk of cases with negative/mild positive expression of wild p53 and Ki67, and with or without mutant p53 expression. The rs7957349 G > C variant was linked to an increased risk of EOC in subgroups with certain characteristics, including age equal or less than 53 years, metastasis, clinical stage I, low pathological grade, tumor number, tumor size, pregnant times, post-menopause, pre-menopause, and strong positive expression of wild p53 and Ki67 (Antigen identified by monoclonal antibody Ki-67), as well as without mutant p53 expression. The rs10773771 CT/TT alleles were identified to have a protective effect on EOC in women aged 53 years or older, as well as in cases with metastasis, advanced clinical stage, high pathological grade, multiple tumors, tumor size equal to or less than 3 cm, history of pregnancy, post-menopausal status, and strong positive expression of ER, PR, wild-type p53, PAX8, WT1, P16, and Ki67. Furthermore, rs10773771 CT/TT also showed a protective effect in patients with negative or mildly positive expression of PR, PAX8, wild-type p53, WT1, and P16, as well as positive expression of mutant p53. Compared to the reference haplotype GCG, individuals harboring haplotypes GTG were found to have a significantly decreased susceptibility to EOC. PIWIL1 was significantly expressed in the thyroid, pituitary, and adrenal glands with rs7957349 CC alleles.ConclusionsPIWIL1 rs10848087 and rs7957349 were associated with increased risk of EOC, while rs10773771 may have a protective effect against EOC. These genetic variants may serve as potential biomarkers for EOC susceptibility in the South China population.
