BAFF SNPs and fatigue in primary SS patients

ABSTRACT: An investigation into the association of BAFF variants with fatigue development in the setting of primary Sjogren's Syndrome (SS). Analysis performed in a cohort of 199 Greek primary SS patients, in a validation cohort of 62 Dutch primary SS patients and in a cohort of 52 Greek Multiple Sclerosis (MS) patients that served as disease controls.

Project description:Background: With the incidence of papillary thyroid carcinoma rising worldwide, the decision about lobectomy versus total thyroidectomy will become relevant for an increasing number of patients. There exists no reliable biomarker for metastatic potential or tendency of recurrence that could assist in the risk stratification of patients. Objective: To develop a gene expression classifier for metastatic potential by measuring RNA expression in the primary tumor at the time of cancer surgery. Further, to investigate the ability of the gene expression classifier to identify metastatic and recurrent cases. Method: Genome-wide expression analyses. The development cohort consisted of freshly frozen tissues from 38 patients collected between the years 1986 and 2009. Validation was performed on a consecutive cohort of formalin fixated paraffin embedded surgical tissue specimens from 183 patients treated at Odense and Aarhus University Hospitals. Results: A 17 gene classifier (ADAMTS1, ANTXR1, C7, CXCL12, EBF1, FBLN2, FOSL2, GGT5, GPR124, JAM3, LRIG1, NDRG1, PRRX1, ROBO1, SORL1, TCF4, and ZEB1) was identified based on the expression values of these genes in the groups with and without metastasis in the development cohort. The 17 gene classifier for regional and/or distant metastasis identified was tested against the clinical status in the validation cohort. Sensitivity was 51.6% (95% CI 41.2%-61.8) and specificity 61.6 % (95% CI 50.5%-71.9%). Further, the Kaplan-Meyer method was used to estimate whether the classifier was useful as a prognostic marker for recurrences. Log-rank testing failed to identify any significance (p=0.32). Conclusion: A 17 gene classifier for metastatic potential was developed, and the results showed a clear biological difference between groups. However, through validation, the prognostic significance of this classifier could not be shown in identifying metastatic cases or in the ability of dichotomizing patients according to risk of recurrence after primary treatment. 38 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma from a consecutive cohort of patients, no replicates

Project description:Performing GWAS on multiple myeloma in relation to the development of the toxicity neuropathy. This set was used as validation set. We performed a genome-wide association study using Affymetrix HD-SNP arrays 6.0 to identify risk variants for developing bortezomib-induced peripheral neuropathy (BiPN) in 469 multiple myeloma (MM) patients who received bortezomib-dexamethasone therapy prior to autologous stem-cell transplantation and conducted validation in an independent cohort of 116 MM patients. We identified one previously unreported BiPN risk locus at 21q22.3 (rs2839629, PKNOX1; OR = 0.53, 95% CI: [0.40-0.69]). PKNOX1 is known to regulate MCP-1, a potent mediator of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy. rs2839629 is in strong linkage disequilibrium ( r2 = 0.87) with rs915854, localized 6.5kb centromeric to CBS encoding endogenous H2S-producing enzyme. CBS-H2S signalling pathway is implicated in the pathogenesis of a variety of neurodegenerative and inflammatory disorders, and specifically in neuropathy models. Our data provide conclusive evidence for genetic susceptibility to BiPN in MM and new potential targets in neuro-protective strategies of treatment. Each patient of both IFM and HOVON cohorts was genotyped using the Affymetrix SNP6.0 Human DNA chip (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA) according to manufacturerâs instructions (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). The HOVON65 samples were genotyped using CRLMM v2 resulting in a call rate higher than 95%. Unannotated SNPs according to the hg19 na32 SNP6 Affymetrix annotations (n= 130) along with SNPs from MT and sexual chromosomes (n= 37,326) were not considered in the study. To perform GWAS in the IFM cohort, we used stringent criteria to select a total of 370,605 SNPs from the 872,166 SNPs available onto the array. A SNP was analysed if an AA or BB genotype was present in more than 5% of patients, if its genotype was determined in at least 95% of the patients and if the Hardy-Weinberg rule was not rejected. Statistical analyses were performed using SNPTEST v2.5.11. Firstly, we compared 370,605 genotypes from 155 IFM patients with neuropathy (grade >= 2) after bortezomib exposure to 314 control patients treated with bortezomib who did not develop neuropathy (grade 0-1). Secondly, we performed a validation in the HOVON 65/GMMG-HD4cohort for the highest associated SNPs as identified in the discovery cohort. We compared 41 bortezomib-treated patients with neuropathy (grade >= 2) with 75 bortezomib-treated controls who did not develop neuropathy. We applied a one-sided logistic regression with 10,000 label swapping permutations to correct for multiple testing in order to confirm BiPN association in this independent cohort. This set was used as a validation set. An independent dataset was used for discovery [GSE65777].
