Correlation between Candidate Single Nucleotide Variants and Several Clinicopathological Risk Factors Related to Breast Cancer in Jordanian Women: A Genotype-Phenotype Study.

ABSTRACT: This study aim to investigate the association of breast cancer risk and prognostic factors with single nucleotide variants of the BRCA1, BRCA2, DAPK1, MMP9, TOX3, and TP53 genes in Jordanian women. Blood samples were collected from 230 Jordanian breast cancer patients for use in DNA extraction followed by genotyping and subsequent statistical analysis. We found that two single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of the BRCA2 gene, namely rs1799944 and rs766173, were significantly associated with breastfeeding status. Likewise, the rs11141901 and rs1041326 SNVs of the DAPK1 gene were linked with co-morbidity (p-value = 0.002) and family history of BC (p-value = 0.015), while the rs1045042 SNV of the same gene was associated with both allergy (p-value = 0.001) and family history of BC (p-value = 0.02). Tumor differentiation was correlated with the DAPK1 SNVs rs11141901 (p-value = 0.041) and rs1041326 (p-value = 0.005). Additionally, the rs2250889 SNV of the MMP9 gene was significantly associated with HER2 status, whereas the TP53 SNVs rs12951053 and rs1042522 were associated with age at menarche (p-value = 0.043) and breastfeeding status (p-value = 0.013), respectively. In contrast, the TP53 SNV rs2287497 was significantly linked to age at first pregnancy (p-value = 0.001), smoking (p-value = 0.041), and axillary lymph node status (p-value = 6e-4). No such association was found for the BRCA1 and TOX3 SNVs. The current findings suggest significant associations between certain SNVs and breast cancer risk and prognosis in Jordanian women.

Project description:Recessive SH3TC2 variants cause Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 4C (CMT4C). CMT4C is typically a sensorimotor demyelinating polyneuropathy, marked by early onset spinal deformities, but its clinical characteristics and severity are quite variable. Clear relationships between pathogenic variants and the spectrum of disease manifestations are to date lacking. Gene replacement therapy has been shown to ameliorate the phenotype in a mouse model of CMT4C, emphasizing the need for natural history studies to inform clinical trial readiness. Data, including both genetic information and clinical characteristics, were compiled from the longitudinal, prospective dataset of the Inherited Neuropathy Consortium, a member of the Rare Diseases Clinical Research Network (INC-RDCRN). The Charcot Marie Tooth Neuropathy Score (CMTNS), Examination Score (CMTES) and the Rasch-weighted CMTES (CMTES-R) were used to describe symptoms, neurological examinations and neurophysiological characteristics. Standardized response means were calculated at yearly intervals and a mixed model for repeated measures was used to estimate the change in CMTES and CMTES-R over time. Fifty-six individuals (59% female), median age 27 years (range 2-67 years) with homozygous or compound heterozygous variants in SH3TC2 were identified, including 34 unique variants, 14 of which have not previously been published. Twenty-eight participants had longitudinal data available. While there was no significant difference in the CMTES in those with protein truncating versus non-protein truncating variants, there were significant differences in the mean ulnar nerve compound muscle action potential amplitude, the mean radial sensory nerve action potential amplitude, and in the prevalence of scoliosis, suggesting the possibility of a milder phenotype in individuals with one or two non-protein-truncating variants. Overall, the mean value of the CMTES was 13, reflecting moderate clinical severity. There was a high rate of scoliosis (81%), scoliosis surgery (36%), and walking difficulty (94%) among study participants. The CMTES and CMTES-R appeared moderately responsive to change over extended follow-up, demonstrating a standardized response mean of 0.81 standard deviation units or 0.71 standard deviation units, respectively, over 3 years. Our analysis represents the largest cross-sectional and only longitudinal study to date, of the clinical phenotype of both adults and children with CMT4C. With the promise of upcoming genetic treatments, these data will further define the natural history of the disease and inform study design in preparation for clinical trials.

Project description:BACKGROUND:MYO15A variants are responsible for human non-syndromic autosomal recessive deafness (DFNB3). The majority of MYO15A variants are associated with a congenital severe-to-profound hearing loss phenotype, except for MYO15A variants in exon 2, which cause a milder auditory phenotype, suggesting a genotype-phenotype correlation of MYO15A. However, MYO15A variants not in exon 2 related to a milder phenotype have also been reported, indicating that the genotype-phenotype correlation of MYO15A is complicated. This study aimed to provide more cases of MYO15A variation with diverse phenotypes to analyse this complex correlation. METHODS:Fifteen Chinese autosomal recessive non-syndromic hearing loss (ARNSHL) individuals with MYO15A variants (8 males and 7 females) from 14 unrelated families, identified by targeted gene capture of 127 known candidate deafness genes, were recruited. Additionally, we conducted a review of the literature to further analyses all reported MYO15A genotype-phenotype relationships worldwide. RESULTS:We identified 16 novel variants and 12 reported pathogenic MYO15A variants in 15 patients, two of which presented with a milder phenotype. Interestingly, one of these cases carried two reported pathogenic variants in exon 2, while the other carried two novel variants not in exon 2. Based on our literature review, MYO15A genotype-phenotype correlation analysis showed that almost all domains were reported to be correlated with a milder phenotype. However, variants in the N-terminal domain were more likely to cause a milder phenotype. Using next-generation sequencing (NGS), we also found that the number of known MYO15A variants with milder phenotypes in Southeast Asia has increased in recent years. CONCLUSION:Our work extended the MYO15A variant spectrum, enriched our knowledge of auditory phenotypes, and tried to explore the genotype-phenotype correlation in different populations in order to investigate the cause of the complex MYO15A genotype-phenotype correlation.
