Association Between Mitochondrial DNA Copy Number and Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma: A Systematic Review and Dose-Response Meta-Analysis.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND The association between mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) risk remains unclear. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between mtDNA copy number and HNSCC risk. MATERIAL AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Web of Science, and EMBASE until August 2020. Studies that assessed the association between mtDNA copy number and HNSCC as the outcome of interest were included. We performed a 2-class and dose-response meta-analysis to assess the association between cancer risk and mtDNA. RESULTS Eight articles (2 cohort studies and 6 case-control studies) with a total of 3913 patients were included in our meta-analysis. The overall results showed that mean mtDNA copy number level from 9 studies was 0.71 higher in patients with cancer than in non-cancer controls (the standardized mean differences (SMD) 0.71, 95% CI: 0.28-1.15, P<0.001). However, when 4 studies were pooled by dichotomizing mtDNA copy number at the median value into high- and low-content groups, no significant association between mtDNA content and overall cancer risk was found (odds ratio (OR)=0.87, 95% CI: 0.52-1.44, P=0.584). Furthermore, we observed a non-linear association from 3 studies between increased mtDNA copy number levels (P for nonlinearity <0.001). CONCLUSIONS The elevated mtDNA copy number could predict the risk of HNSCC as a biomarker. Moreover, there was non-linear relationship of risk between HNSCC and mtDNA copy number.

Project description:Background: The most important risk factors for head and neck squamous carcinoma (HNSCC) are tobacco smoking and alcohol consumption, while subgroups are caused by infection with human papillomaviruses (HPV) or Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Here, we studied alterations of somatic copy-number in whole genome, p16 protein and TP53 mutations by alcohol drinking, smoking and viral infections. Methods: We conducted a prospective cohort study. DNA obtained from tumors and margin samples as well as peripheral blood was assayed by array comparative genomic hybridization using Agilent Whole Human Genome 180K. Mutations of p53 gene by direct sequencing, detection of HPV by polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR), quantification of EBV by reverse transcription-PCR and p16 immunohistochemical (IHC) staining were also performed. prospective cohort study: 225 tumor samples were analyzed by Agilent-022060 SurePrint G3 Human CGH miroarray 4x180K. Log2 Ratio (tumor sample DNA/normal DNA) were compared among none alcohol drinkers, moderate alcohol drinkers, heavy alcohol drinkers, none smokers, moderate smokers, heavy smokers and both. Sample characteristics weres scored as following; Human Papilloma Virus Infection (gene detected by PCR in tumor sample): positive=1; negative=0 p16 protein immunohistochemistry: positive=1; negative=0 tumor grade: matured=0; moderate=1; immature=2 Radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy after operation: performed =1; not performed =0 Recurrence/relapse: rec =1; not rec =0 suvival status:death=1; survive=0 smoking status (Pack year of smoking): none smoker=0; pack-year <20 = 1 (moderate smoker); pack-year <=20 = 2 (heavy smoker) alcohol drinking: Alcohol drinkers were divided into non-drinker or less than one drink per day =0: one and more but less than two drinks per day = moderate drinker 1: two and more drinks per day=heavy drinker 2: during the 20 years preceding their treatment for HNSCC. One drink was defined as containing approximately 10g of alcohol, which is considered equal to 30 ml of hard liquor, 100 ml of wine containing 12% alcohol, or 360 ml of beer.
