Involvement of FGFR4 Gene Variants on the Clinicopathological Severity in Urothelial Cell Carcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Fibroblast growth factor receptor 4 (FGFR4) plays a prominent role in cell proliferation and cancer progression. This study explored the effect of FGFR4 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the clinicopathological characteristics of urothelial cell carcinoma (UCC). This study was conducted to survey the possible correlation of the polymorphism of FGFR4 to the risk and clinicopathologic characteristics of UCC. Four loci of FGFR4 (rs2011077 T > C, rs351855 G > A, rs7708357 G>A, and rs1966265 A > G) were genotyped via the TaqMan allelic discrimination approach in 428 UCC cases and 856 controls. The results indicated that UCC subjects who carried the SNP rs2011077 TC+CC genotypes were significantly related to a higher tumor stage (odds ratio (OR): 1.751, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.078-2.846), primary tumor size (OR: 1.637, 95% CI: 1.006-2.662), and histopathologic grading (OR: 1.919, 95% CI: 1.049-3.511). Moreover, the SNP rs1966265 AG+GG genotypes were prominently related to a higher tumor stage (OR: 1.769, 95% CI: 1.082-2.891), primary tumor size (OR: 1.654, 95% CI: 1.011-2.706), and histopathologic grading (OR: 2.006, 95% CI: 1.096-3.674) compared to individuals with AA homozygotes. In conclusion, our data reveal association of FGFR4 polymorphisms with UCC clinicopathologic characteristics. FGFR4 polymorphisms may serve as a marker or therapeutic target in UCC development.

Project description:BackgroundTo better understand the characteristics, and survival outcomes of synchronous renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and urothelial carcinoma (UC), we described and analyzed the clinical features, factors, and prognosis of patients with synchronous RCC and UC using a large population-based database.MethodsWithin the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database (2004-2016), we identified patient with concurrent RCC and UC at initial diagnosis. Their clinicopathological features and prognosis were evaluated. A logistic regression model was used to examine risk factors for the occurrence of concomitant RCC and UC, and Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to estimate overall survival.ResultsA total of 61,454 RCC patients were identified from the SEER database, 704 (1.1%) patients presented with synchronous RCC and UC. Among these patients, concurrent bladder tumors (566/704) are more common. Subsequently, subgroup analysis based on the location of UC indicated that patients with concurrent RCC and upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) had unfavorable UC characteristics (higher tumor stage and grade), compared with patients with concomitant bladder cancer. An increased risk of concurrent UC was observed among older age, male sex, and white race. Meanwhile, papillary RCC histology [odds ratio (OR) 3.23; 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.13-4.90], and smaller tumor (OR 6.63; 95% CI 4.46-9.87) were independent risk factors for concomitant UTUC. In addition, we found that synchronous RCC and UTUC was associated with worse survival by using Kaplan-Meier and multivariable analysis [hazard ratio (HR) 2.36, 95% CI 1.89-2.95]. However, concomitant bladder cancer did not affect survival outcomes of patients with RCC (HR 1.00, 95% CI 0.86-1.17).ConclusionWe found that synchronous concurrent RCC and UC is relatively uncommon and mostly located in the bladder. Older age, male sex, and white race increase the risk of synchronous RCC and UC. Meanwhile, patients with papillary RCC histology, and smaller tumors are more likely to have concomitant RCC and UTUC. Furthermore, our findings suggest that synchronous RCC and UTUC has a worse prognosis, while, concomitant bladder tumor did not affect the oncological outcomes of RCC.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between expression levels of adipokine and clinicopathological features and prognosis of patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) based on immunohistochemical staining and bioinformatics analysis.MethodsThe 8 adipokines in this study included adiponectin (AdipoQ), leptin (LEP), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10 and their receptors (AdipoR1, AdipoR2, LEPR, IL-6R, IL-10RA, IL-10RB). Tissue samples of patients with UTUC who underwent surgical treatment in Peking University People's Hospital from January 2014 to April 2021 were selected for immunohistochemical staining. Their quantitative gene expression data were calculated by H-Score, and relevant clinical and follow-up data were collected retrospectively. Transcription group sequencing data of UTUC patients in Gene Expression Omnibus database (GSE134292 dataset) were downloaded for comparison. Chi-square test or t-test was used to compare the expression level of adipokine between non-muscle invasive group and muscle invasive group. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curve were utilized to analyze independent predictors of overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), intravesical recurrence-free survival (IVRFS) in the both cohorts. The P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsIn the study, 63 tissue samples of the patients with UTUC who underwent surgical treatment in Peking University People's Hospital and 57 UTUC patients in GSE134292 dataset were selected. In immunohistochemical cohort, the expressions of AdipoQ (P=0.003 6), AdipoR1 (P=0.006 5), LEP (P=0.007 7), IL-10 (P=0.006 9), and IL-10RA (P=0.008 9) were statistically higher in muscle invasive group. In GSE134292 cohort, the expressions of AdipoR1 (P=0.000 4), AdipoR2 (P=0.000 4), IL-6 (P=0.005 0), IL-10 (P=0.001 7), and IL-10RA (P=0.008 1) were statistically higher in muscle invasive group. Kaplan-Meier survival curve and multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that high IL-10RA expression was an independent predictive factor of IVRFS (P=0.044, HR=0.996, 95%CI: 0.992-0.998) in immunohistochemical cohort, which was confirmed in GSE134292 cohort (P=0.014, HR=0.515, 95%CI: 0.304-0.873).ConclusionThe expression levels of AdipoQ, AdipoR1, IL-10, and IL-10RA were correlated with tumor stage, suggesting that these adipokines played important roles in tumor progression. IL-10RA was an independent predictor of IVRFS, suggesting that IL-10 and its receptor played a critical role in tumor recurrence.
