[PMID: 39264466 DOI: 10.1007/s12031-024-02255-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 08/09/2024] [Indexed: 09/13/2024]
Abstract
Stroke is the second leading cause of death and a major contributor to disability worldwide, with the highest prevalence in developing countries. Ischemic stroke (IS) is a complex disease resulting from genetic and environmental interactions. The present work is a pilot study exploring the association of estrogen receptor-α (ESR1) and aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) SNPs with IS in a small Egyptian population of IS patients. Sixty IS patients and 60 matched healthy controls were included in this case-control study. Genotyping of ESR1 PvuII (rs2234693), ESR1 XbaI (rs9340799), and AHR rs2066853 SNPs was performed using real-time PCR. ESR1 PvuII TC and CC genotypes were associated with IS (odds ratio (OR) = 2.821, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.204-6.609, p = 0.017, and OR = 9.455, 95% CI = 2.222-40.237, p = 0.002, respectively), and TC genotype in female IS (OR = 4.018, 95% CI = 1.117-14.455, p = 0.033). Additionally, ESR1 XbaI GA and GG genotypes were associated with IS (OR = 2.833, 95% CI = 1.190-6.749, p = 0.019, and OR = 34.000, 95% CI = 6.965-165.980, p < 0.001, respectively), and the AG and GG genotypes in male IS (OR = 3.378, 95% CI = 1.103-10.347, p = 0.033 and OR = 22.8, 95% CI = 2.580-201.488, p = 0.005, respectively) and the GG genotype in female IS (95% CI = 7.259-1115.914, p < 0.001). ESR1 PvuII and XbaI haplotypes C-A, T-G, and C-A increased the risk of IS in both genders, in male IS, and in female IS apart from C-A. The AG genotype of AHR rs2066853 was associated with male IS (OR = 6.900, 95% CI = 2.120-22.457 p = 0.001). ESR1 PvuII, ESR1 XbaI, and AHR rs2066853 SNPs are associated with IS in Egyptians. However, this is a small sample, and the findings should be replicated in a larger population.

Unraveling the molecular significance of CYP1A2 (rs762551; c.-9-154 C>A) genetic variant on breast carcinoma susceptibility: Insights from case-control study and meta-analysis. Pathol Res Pract 2024; 261:155501. [PMID: 39116569 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2024.155501] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Revised: 06/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/27/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The human cytochrome P450 (CYP) superfamily encompasses different categories of isoenzymes that contribute to multiple metabolic processes involving drug detoxification, cellular signaling, and the proliferation of malignant tissues. Using genetic technology, customized bioinformatic analysis, and meta-analysis design, the main goal of this study was to identify the association between the CYP1A2*rs762551 variant and the susceptibility to breast carcinoma (BRCA). METHODS The case-control study was conducted based on 104 BRCA women and 102 healthy controls. Using the TaqMan allelic discrimination assay, the CYP1A2 (rs762551; c.-9-154 C>A) variant was genotyped. Bioinformatic frameworks and logistic regression analysis were used to assess the involvement of this genetic variant in BRCA development. A meta-analysis design was accomplished based on our case-control study and other previously published records. Publication bias, heterogeneity between studies, and trial sequential analysis (TSA) were analyzed. RESULTS The CYP1A2*rs762551 variant conferred protection against BRCA development under allelic (OR = 0.48, p-value < 0.001), dominant (OR = 0.34, p-value < 0.001), and recessive (OR = 0.44, p-value = 0.011) models. However, this intronic variant was correlated with a decreased risk of BRCA among late-onset menopause women compared to other cases. Bioinformatic analysis confirmed that this genetic variant has a functional impact on the progression of tumorgenesis. Moreover, this meta-analysis design included 12922 BRCA women and 15603 healthy controls. Our findings disclosed the contribution of the CYP1A2*rs762551 variant with protection against cancer development among Caucasian females under allelic (OR = 0.75, p-value = 0.025), and dominant (OR = 0.58, p-value = 0.015) models. CONCLUSIONS This case-control study confirmed the contribution of the CYP1A2*rs762551 variant with decreased risk of BRCA development among Egyptian subjects. Moreover, BRCA women with late-onset menopause conferred protection against cancer progression compared to other subjects. Our findings identified that this meta-analysis design achieved protection against BRCA development among Caucasian women compared to other ethnicities.

[PMID: 36623673 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147171] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2022] [Revised: 12/16/2022] [Accepted: 01/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/08/2023]
Abstract
The humancytochrome P450 1A (CYP1A) subfamily genes, CYP1A1 and CYP1A2, encoding monooxygenases are critically involved in biotransformation of key endogenous substrates (estradiol, arachidonic acid, cholesterol) and exogenous compounds (smoke constituents, carcinogens, caffeine, therapeutic drugs). This suggests their significant involvement in multiple biological pathways with a primary role of maintaining endogenous homeostasis and xenobiotic detoxification. Large interindividual variability exist in CYP1A gene expression and/or catalytic activity of the enzyme, which is primarily due to the existence of polymorphic alleles which encode them. These polymorphisms (mainly single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNPs) have been extensively studied as susceptibility factors in a spectrum of clinical phenotypes. An in-depth understanding of the effects of polymorphic CYP1A genes on the differential metabolic activity and the resulting biological pathways is needed to explain the clinical implications of CYP1A polymorphisms. The present review is intended to provide an integrated understanding of CYP1A metabolic activity with unique substrate specificity and their involvement in physiological and pathophysiological roles. The article further emphasizes on the impact of widely studied CYP1A1 and CYP1A2 SNPs and their complex interaction with non-genetic factors like smoking and caffeine intake on multiple clinical phenotypes. Finally, we attempted to discuss the alterations in metabolism/physiology concerning the polymorphic CYP1A genes, which may underlie the reported clinical associations. This knowledge may provide insights into the disease pathogenesis, risk stratification, response to therapy and potential drug targets for individuals with certain CYP1A genotypes.

Abstract
The objective of this systematic review was to investigate the association between polymorphisms in the progesterone receptor gene (PGR) and breast cancer risk. A search of PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science databases was performed in November 2021. Study characteristics, minor allele frequencies, genotype frequencies, and odds ratios were extracted. Forty studies met the eligibility criteria and included 75 032 cases and 89 425 controls. Of the 84 PGR polymorphisms reported, 7 variants were associated with breast cancer risk in at least 1 study. These polymorphisms included an Alu insertion (intron 7) and rs1042838 (Val660Leu), also known as PROGINS. Other variants found to be associated with breast cancer risk included rs3740753 (Ser344Thr), rs10895068 (+331G/A), rs590688 (intron 2), rs1824128 (intron 3), and rs10895054 (intron 6). Increased risk of breast cancer was associated with rs1042838 (Val660Leu) in 2 studies, rs1824128 (intron 3) in 1 study, and rs10895054 (intron 6) in 1 study. The variant rs3740753 (Ser344Thr) was associated with decreased risk of breast cancer in 1 study. Mixed results were reported for rs590688 (intron 2), rs10895068 (+331G/A), and the Alu insertion. In a pooled analysis, the Alu insertion, rs1042838 (Val660Leu), rs3740753 (Ser344Thr), and rs10895068 (+331G/A) were not associated with breast cancer risk. Factors reported to contribute to differences in breast cancer risk associated with PGR polymorphisms included age, ethnicity, obesity, and postmenopausal hormone therapy use. PGR polymorphisms may have a small contribution to breast cancer risk in certain populations, but this is not conclusive with studies finding no association in larger, mixed populations.

Association of xenobiotic-metabolizing genes polymorphisms with cervical cancer risk in the Tunisian population. Mol Biol Rep 2023; 50:949-959.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Host genetic characteristics and environmental factors interactions may play a crucial role in cervical carcinogenesis. We investigated the impact of functional genetic variants of four xenobiotic-metabolizing genes (AhR, CYP1A1, GSTM1, and GSTT1) on cervical cancer development in Tunisian women. METHODS The AhR gene polymorphism was analyzed using the tetra-primer ARMS-PCR, whereas the CYP1A1 polymorphism genotypes were identified by PCR-RFLP. A multiplex ligation-dependent polymerase chain reaction approach was applied for the analysis of GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms. RESULTS The homozygous A/A genotype of the AhR gene (rs2066853) and the heterozygous T/C genotype of the CYP1A1 SNP (CYP1A1-MspI) appeared to be associated with an increased risk of cervical tumorigenesis (ORa = 2.81; ORa = 5.52, respectively). Furthermore, a significantly increased risk of cervical cancer was associated with the GSTT1 null genotype (ORa = 2.65). However, the null GSTM1 genotype showed any significant association with the risk of cervical cancer compared to the wild genotype (ORa = 1.18; p = 0.784). Considering the combined effect, we noted a significantly higher association with cancer risk for individuals with at least two high-risk genotypes of CYP1A1/GSTT1 (ORa = 4.2), individuals with at least two high-risk genotypes of CYP1A1/GSTT1/AhR (ORa = 11.3) and individuals with at least two high-risk genotypes of CYP1A1/GSTM1/GSTT1/AhR exploitation low-risk genotype as a reference. CONCLUSION This study indicated that the single-gene contribution and the combined effect of xenobiotic-metabolizing gene polymorphisms (AhR, CYP1A1-MspI, GSTM1, and GSTT1) may have a considerable association with increased cervical cancer risk.

Abstract
Breast cancer (BC) is one of the most common cancers diagnosed and the leading cause of cancer-related death in women. Although there are first-line treatments for BC, drug resistances and adverse events have been reported. Given the incidence of BC keeps increasing, seeking novel therapeutics is urgently needed. Fucoxanthin (Fx) is a dietary carotenoid commonly found in seaweeds and diatoms. Both in vitro and in vivo studies show that Fx and its deacetylated metabolite fucoxanthinol (Fxol) inhibit and prevent BC growth. The NF-κB signaling pathway is considered the major pathway contributing to the anti-proliferation, anti-angiogenesis and pro-apoptotic effects of Fx and Fxol. Other signaling molecules such as MAPK, MMP2/9, CYP and ROS are also involved in the anti-cancer effects by regulating the tumor microenvironment, cancer metastasis, carcinogen metabolism and oxidation. Besides, Fx also possesses anti-obesity effects by regulating UCP1 levels and lipid metabolism, which may help to reduce BC risk. More importantly, mounting evidence demonstrates that Fx overcomes drug resistance. This review aims to give an updated summary of the anti-cancer effects of Fx and summarize the underlying mechanisms of action, which will provide novel strategies for the development of Fx as an anti-cancer therapeutic agent.

Abstract
Skin is constantly exposed to environmental insults, including toxic chemicals and oxidative stress. These insults often provoke perturbation of epidermal homeostasis and lead to characteristic skin diseases. AHR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor) and NRF2 (nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2) are transcription factors that induce a battery of cytoprotective genes encoding detoxication and antioxidant enzymes in response to environmental insults. In addition to their basic functions as key regulators of xenobiotic and oxidant detoxification, recent investigations revealed that AHR and NRF2 also play critical roles in the maintenance of skin homeostasis. In fact, specific disruption of AHR function in the skin has been found to be associated with the pathogenesis of various skin diseases, most prevalently atopic dermatitis (AD). In this review, current knowledge on the roles that AHR and NRF2 play in epidermal homeostasis was summarized. Functional annotations of genetic variants, both regulatory and nonsynonymous SNPs, identified in the AHR and NRF2 loci in the human genome were also summarized. Finally, the possibility that AHR and NRF2 serve as therapeutic targets of AD was assessed.

Abstract
The treatment options for breast cancer include endocrine therapy, targeted therapy and chemotherapy. However, some patients with triple-negative breast cancer cannot benefit from these methods. Therefore, novel therapeutic targets should be developed. The cytochrome P450 enzyme (CYP) is a crucial metabolic oxidase, which is involved in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous substances in the human body. Some products undergoing the metabolic pathway of the CYP enzyme, such as hydroxylated polychlorinated biphenyls and 4-chlorobiphenyl, are toxic to humans and are considered to be potential carcinogens. As a class of multi-gene superfamily enzymes, the subtypes of CYPs are selectively expressed in breast cancer tissues, especially in the basal-like type. In addition, CYPs are essential for the activation or inactivation of anticancer drugs. The association between CYP expression and cancer risk, tumorigenesis, progression, metastasis and prognosis has been widely reported in basic and clinical studies. The present review describes the current findings regarding the importance of exploring metabolic pathways of CYPs and gene polymorphisms for the development of vital therapeutic targets for breast cancer.

Abstract
Background Multiple common variants identified by genome-wide association studies have shown limited evidence of the risk of breast cancer in Chinese individuals. In this study, we aimed to uncover the relationship between estrogen levels and the genetic polymorphism of estrogen metabolism-related enzymes in breast cancer (BC) and establish a risk prediction model composed of estrogen-metabolizing enzyme genes and GWAS-identified breast cancer-related genes based on a polygenic risk score. Methods Unrelated BC patients and healthy subjects were recruited for analysis of estrogen levels and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genes encoding estrogen metabolism-related enzymes. The polygenic risk score (PRS) was used to explore the combined effect of multiple genes, which was calculated using a Bayesian approach. An independent sample t-test was used to evaluate the differences between PRS scores of BC and healthy subjects. The discriminatory accuracy of the models was compared using the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results The estrogen homeostasis profile was disturbed in BC patients, with parent estrogens (E1, E2) and carcinogenic catechol estrogens (2/4-OHE1, 2-OHE2, 4-OHE2) significantly accumulating in the serum of BC patients. We then established a PRS model to evaluate the role of SNPs in multiple genes. PRS model 1 (M1) was established from SNPs in 6 GWAS-identified high risk genes. On the basis of M1, we added SNPs from 7 estrogen metabolism enzyme genes to establish PRS model 2 (M2). The independent sample t-test results showed that there was no difference between BC and healthy subjects in M1 (P = 0.17); however, there was a significant difference between BC and healthy subjects in M2 (P = 4.9*10− 5). The ROC curve results showed that the accuracy of M2 (AUC = 62.18%) in breast cancer risk identification was better than that of M1 (AUC = 54.56%). Conclusion Estrogen and related metabolic enzyme gene polymorphisms are closely related to BC. The model constructed by adding estrogen metabolic enzyme gene SNPs has a good predictive ability for breast cancer risk, and the accuracy is greatly improved compared with that of the PRS model that only includes GWAS-identified gene SNPs.

Li H, Luo L, Wang D, Duan J, Zhang R. Lack of association between multiple polymorphisms in aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) gene and cancer susceptibility. Environ Health Prev Med 2020; 25:79. [PMID: 33278884 PMCID: PMC7718691 DOI: 10.1186/s12199-020-00907-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2020] [Accepted: 10/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is commonly known as an environmental sensor. Polymorphisms in AhR gene have been implicated in susceptibility to cancer. However, the results were controversial. This study was conducted to quantitatively summarize the association between AhR polymorphisms and cancer risk by meta-analysis. METHODS Relevant reports were searched in four databases (Embase, PubMed, Wanfang, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure). We used pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) to evaluate the strength of the association in both standard and cumulative meta-analysis. Subgroup and sensitivity analysis was also performed, and between-study heterogeneity and publication bias were checked. RESULTS A total of seventeen studies referring to three AhR polymorphisms (rs2066853, rs7796976, and rs2074113) were identified, and 9557 cases and 10038 controls were included. There was no statistically significant association of AhR rs2066853 polymorphism with cancer risk in the overall population, and the negative results were repeated in subgroup analysis by the ethnicity and cancer type. Concerning AhR rs7796976 or rs2074113 polymorphism, no significant correlation was detected. Moreover, these non-significant findings were stable in sensitivity analysis, and the cumulative meta-analysis indicated a trend of no significant link between this three AhR polymorphisms and cancer risk as more data accumulated over time. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis provides evidence that the rs2066853, rs7796976, or rs2074113 polymorphism in AhR gene is not a susceptible predictor of cancer. Further clinical and functional investigation between AhR polymorphisms and cancer susceptibility are needed.

Elevated exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) may trigger cancers in Pakistan: an environmental, occupational, and genetic perspective. ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 27:42405-42423. [PMID: 32875453 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-020-09088-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2019] [Accepted: 04/27/2020] [Indexed: 05/22/2023]
Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are carcinogenic compounds which are emitted through incomplete combustion of organic materials, fossil fuels, consumption of processed meat, smoked food, and from various industrial activities. High molecular mass and mobility make PAHs widespread and lethal for human health. A cellular system in human detoxifies these toxicants through specialized enzymatic machinery called xenobiotic-metabolizing (CYP450) and phase-II (GSTs) enzymes (XMEs). These metabolizing enzymes include cytochromes P450 family (CYP1, CYP2), glutathione s-transferases, and ALDHs. Gene polymorphisms in XMEs encoding genes can compromise their metabolizing capacity to detoxify ingested carcinogens (PAHs etc.) that may lead to prolong and elevated exposure to ingested toxicants and may consequently lead to cancer. Moreover, PAHs can induce cancer through reprograming XMEs' gene functions by altering their epigenetic markers. This review article discusses possible interplay between individual's gene polymorphism in XMEs' genes, their altered epigenetic markers, and exposure to PAHs in cancer susceptibility in Pakistan.

Abstract
RESEARCH QUESTION Can single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of genes related to progesterone synthesis predict the risk of premature serum progesterone elevation in women undergoing gonadotrophin-releasing hormone agonist protocols for ovarian stimulation? DESIGN A total of 765 women were divided into high progesterone and normal progesterone groups according to progesterone concentration on the day of human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG) administration, with the 75th percentile as the threshold between the group. Associations were analysed of genetic information from whole exome sequencing and the clinical characteristics of the two groups to identify the relationship between SNP, haplotypes and serum progesterone elevation. RESULTS Among 40 common SNP of eight genes (FSHR, LHCGR, ESR1, ESR2, PGR, HSD3B1, CYP11A1 and CYP17A1), no statistical significance between the high and normal progesterone groups was identified in the distribution of genotypes and allele frequencies after multiple test correction to adjust the false discovery rate (PFDR > 0.05). When compared with the most common haplotypes of each gene, haplotype GAAG in CYP17A1 was associated with a 1.44-fold increased risk of progesterone elevation (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.22-1.69, PFDR < 0.001), while haplotypes of the following genes showed a decreased risk of progesterone elevation: haplotype CC in FSHR and LHCGR (0.66-fold, PFDR = 0.020, and 0.64-fold, PFDR < 0.001, respectively), CA in ESR1 (0.90-fold, PFDR < 0.001), TCTGG in ESR2 (0.92-fold, PFDR = 0.007) and GAACC in HSD3B1 (0.42-fold, PFDR < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Polymorphism in genes involved in enzymes or hormone receptors in the progesterone synthesis pathway may have a role in modifying risk of serum progesterone elevation.

Transethnic associations among immune-mediated diseases and single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the aryl hydrocarbon response gene ARNT and the PTPN22 immune regulatory gene. J Autoimmun 2019; 107:102363. [PMID: 31759816 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaut.2019.102363] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/04/2019] [Revised: 11/06/2019] [Accepted: 11/08/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Because immune responses are sensitive to environmental changes that drive selection of genetic variants, we hypothesized that polymorphisms of some xenobiotic response and immune response genes may be associated with specific types of immune-mediated diseases (IMD), while others may be associated with IMD as a larger category regardless of specific phenotype or ethnicity. OBJECTIVE To examine transethnic gene-IMD associations for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) frequencies of prototypic xenobiotic response genes-aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR), AHR nuclear translocator (ARNT), AHR repressor (AHRR) - and a prototypic immune response gene, protein tyrosine phosphatase, non-receptor type 22 (PTPN22), in subjects from the Environmental Polymorphisms Registry (EPR). METHODS Subjects (n = 3731) were genotyped for 14 SNPs associated with functional variants of the AHR, ARNT, AHRR, and PTPN22 genes, and their frequencies were compared among African Americans (n = 1562), Caucasians (n = 1838), and Hispanics (n = 331) with previously reported data. Of those genotyped, 2015 EPR subjects completed a Health and Exposure survey. SNPs were assessed via PLINK for associations with IMD, which included those with autoimmune diseases, allergic disorders, asthma, or idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Transethnic meta-analyses were performed using METAL and MANTRA approaches. RESULTS ARNT SNP rs11204735 was significantly associated with autoimmune disease by transethnic meta-analyses using METAL (odds ratio, OR [95% confidence interval] = 1.29 [1.08-1.55]) and MANTRA (ORs ranged from 1.29 to 1.30), whereas ARNT SNP rs1889740 showed a significant association with autoimmune disease by METAL (OR = 1.25 [1.06-1.47]). For Caucasian females, PTPN22 SNP rs2476601 was significantly associated with autoimmune disease by allelic association tests (OR = 1.99, [1.30-3.04]). In Caucasians and Caucasian males, PTPN22 SNP rs3811021 was significantly associated with IMD (OR = 1.39 [1.12-1.72] and 1.50 [1.12-2.02], respectively) and allergic disease (OR = 1.39 [1.12-1.71], and 1.62 [1.19-2.20], respectively). In the transethnic meta-analysis, PTPN22 SNP rs3811021 was significantly implicated in IMD by METAL (OR = 1.31 [1.10-1.56]), and both METAL and MANTRA suggested that rs3811021 was associated with IMD and allergic disease in males across all three ethnic groups (IMD METAL OR = 1.50 [1.15-1.95]; IMD MANTRA ORs ranged from 1.47 to 1.50; allergic disease METAL OR = 1.58 [1.20-2.08]; allergic disease MANTRA ORs ranged from 1.55 to 1.59). CONCLUSIONS Some xenobiotic and immune response gene polymorphisms were shown here, for the first time, to have associations across a broad spectrum of IMD and ethnicities. Our findings also suggest a role for ARNT in the development of autoimmune diseases, implicating environmental factors metabolized by this pathway in pathogenesis. Further studies are needed to confirm these data, assess the implications of these findings, define gene-environment interactions, and explore the mechanisms leading to these increasingly prevalent disorders.

Abstract
Background Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in several CYP genes have been associated with altered breast cancer (BC) risk in different populations. Despite this, there is a dearth of information on the roles of these SNPs in Jordanian BC patients. Therefore, this study aims to determine if there is any single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) within CYP19A1, CYP2C19, CYP2C9, CYP1B1, CYP3A4, and CYP1A2 genes associated with BC in the Jordanian population. In addition, this work investigates the association between selected BC prognostic factors and variants of the aforementioned CYP candidate genes. Methods Blood samples were withdrawn from 221 BC patients and 218 healthy volunteers recruited from the Jordanian population. Genomic DNA was withdrawn and, after quantification and quality control, was genotyped using the Sequenom MassARRAY® system (iPLEX GOLD). Statistical analysis was then carried out to assess allelic and genotypic frequencies as well as genetic association between cases and controls. Results The CYP19A1 SNP rs7176005 (p < 0.0045) and the CYP1A2 SNP rs762551 (p = 0.004) were significantly associated with BC risk. However, no such association was found for the screened SNPs of the CYP2C9, CYP1B1, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 genes. Regarding the prognostic factors of BC, several of the screened SNPs were associated with different pathological and clinical features. Conclusions Certain CYP genes, particularly CYP19A1 and CYP1A2, were associated with BC risk and development in the Jordanian population.

Abstract
Abnormal synthesis and metabolism of sex steroids is involved in the pathogenesis of various human diseases, such as endometriosis and cancers arising from the breast and uterus. Steroid biosynthesis is a multistep enzymatic process proceeding from cholesterol to highly active sex steroids via different intermediates. Human Hydroxysteroid (17beta) dehydrogenase 1 (HSD17B1) enzyme shows a high capacity to produce the highly active estrogen, estradiol, from a precursor hormone, estrone. However, the enzyme may also play a role in other steps of the steroid biosynthesis pathway. In this article, we have reviewed the literature on HSD17B1, and summarize the role of the enzyme in hormone-dependent diseases in women as evidenced by preclinical studies.

Abstract
Introduction CYP17 is the second most important enzyme in estradiol synthesis. Epidemiological studies have shown the associations between CYP17 polymorphisms and cancer risk. We conducted a case–control study to evaluate the relationship between CYP17 polymorphisms (rs743572 and rs2486758) and breast cancer (BC) risk. Patients and methods This case–control study included 560 BC patients and 583 age-matched healthy controls from Northwest China. Two polymorphisms (rs743572 and rs2486758) of CYP17 were genotyped by using Sequenom MassARRAY. ORs and 95% CIs were used to evaluate the relationship. Results Compared with the wild genotype of rs743572, we found a significantly reduced risk of BC associated with the variant genotypes (heterozygote model: OR=0.69, 95% CI=0.53–0.89; homozygote model: OR=0.68, 95% CI=0.49–0.95; dominant model: OR=0.69, 95% CI=0.54–0.87; overdominant model: OR=0.78, 95% CI=0.62–0.98; allele model: OR=0.79, 95% CI=0.66–0.93). For rs2486758 polymorphism, we did not find any difference in any of the genetic models. Further stratification analysis by clinical characteristics showed rs743572 was associated with estrogen receptor status (heterozygote model: OR=2.13, 95% CI=1.47–3.08; homozygote model: OR=3.29, 95% CI=1.94–5.58; dominant model: OR=2.39, 95% CI=1.69–3.37) and progesterone receptor status (homozygote model: OR=3.17, 95% CI=1.82–5.55), but there was no association between rs2486758 and clinical characteristics of BC. Haplotype analysis showed that Grs743572Crs2486758 haplotype was a protective factor of BC (OR=0.52, 95% CI=0.40–0.67). Survival analysis did not find that CYP17 rs743572 polymorphism was associated with triple-negative BC, either in terms of overall survival or progression-free survival. Conclusion Our results suggest that CYP17 polymorphisms may reduce the susceptibility to BC in Chinese women.

Abstract
In order to discover the potential genetic risks associated with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL), this meta-analysis was conducted to assess the association between CYP1A1 gene polymorphism and RPL. Studies were retrieved from the databases PubMed, Embase, HuGENet, and CNKI. Four models were then applied. Seven studies, including three datasets for the rs1048943 and five for the rs4646903 single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), were included in this analysis, involving 613 cases and 398 controls for the rs1048943; and 864 cases and 842 controls for the rs4646903 SNP. After comprehensive analysis, we found that rs4646903 was significantly associated with RPL [recessive (OR = 1.72, 95%CI: 1.13-2.61); codominant (CC vs TT; OR = 1.74, 95%CI: 1.12-2.71), (CC vs CT; OR = 1.67, 95%CI: 1.07-2.62) and allele analysis (OR = 1.27, 95%CI: 1.07-1.50)]. In the following subgroup analysis, a positive association was also discovered among people of Asian descent, especially South Asians. However, there was no obvious association between rs1048943 and RPL. In summary, our results suggest that CYP1A1 gene polymorphism (particularly for rs4646903) might be associated with RPL risk, especially among South Asians. Further studies are required to confirm this association.

Abstract
Association between CYP17 T-34C (rs743572) polymorphism and breast cancer (BC) risk was controversial. In order to derive a more definitive conclusion, we performed this meta-analysis. We searched in the databases of PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane for eligible publications. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to assess the strength of association between CYP17 T-34C polymorphism and breast cancer risk. Forty-nine studies involving 2,7104 cases and 3,4218 control subjects were included in this meta-analysis. In overall, no significant association between CYP17 T-34C polymorphism and breast cancer susceptibility was found among general populations. In the stratified analysis by ethnicity and source, significant associations were still not detected in all genetic models; besides, limiting the analysis to studies with controls in agreement with HWE, we also observed no association between CYP17 T-34C polymorphism and breast cancer risk. For premenopausal women, we didn't detect an association between rs743572 and breast cancer risk; however, among postmenopausal women, we observed that the association was statistically significant under the allele contrast genetic model (OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 1.03-1.17, P = 0.003), but not in other four models. In conclusion, rs743572 may increase breast cancer risk in postmenopausal individuals, but not in premenopausal folks and general populations.

Abstract
Human breast and rat mammary cancer susceptibility are complex phenotypes where complete sets of risk associated loci remain to be identified for both species. We tested multiple congenic rat strains to physically confirm and positionally map rat Mammary carcinoma susceptibility 3 (Mcs3)-a mammary cancer resistance allele previously predicted at Rattus norvegicus chromosome 1 (RNO1). The mammary cancer susceptible Wistar Furth (WF) strain was the recipient, and the mammary cancer resistant Copenhagen (Cop) strain was the RNO1-segment donor for congenics. Inbred WF females averaged 6.3 carcinogen-induced mammary carcinomas per rat. Two WF.Cop congenic strains averaged 2.8 and 3.4 mammary carcinomas per rat, which confirmed Mcs3 as an independently acting allele. Two other WF.Cop congenic strains averaged 6.6 and 8.1 mammary carcinomas per rat, and, thus, did not contain Mcs3 Rat Mcs3 was delimited to 27.8 Mb of RNO1 from rs8149408 to rs105131702 (RNO1:143700228-171517317 of RGSC 6.0/rn6). Human genetic variants with p values for association to breast cancer risk below 10-7 had not been reported for Mcs3 orthologous loci; however, human variants located in Mcs3-orthologous regions with potential association to risk (10-7 < p < 10-3) were listed in some population-based studies. Further, rat Mcs3 contains sequence orthologous to human 11q13/14-a region frequently amplified in female breast cancer. We conclude that Mcs3 is an independently acting mammary carcinoma resistance allele. Human population-based, genome-targeted association studies interrogating Mcs3 orthologous loci may yield novel breast cancer risk associated variants and genes.

Abstract
Background: Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is an important estrogen-metabolizing enzyme. Numerous case-control studies have evaluated the role COMT Val 158Met (rs4680;472G->A) polymorphism in the risk of breast cancer and provided inconclusive results, hence present meta-analysis was designed to get a more reliable assessment in Asian population. Methods: A total of 26 articles were identified through a search of four electronic databases-PubMed, Google Scholar, Science Direct and Springer link, up to March, 2016. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% con¬fidence intervals (CIs) were used as association measure to find out relationship between COMT Val158Metpolymorphism and the risk of breast cancer. We also assessed between study heterogeneity and publication bias. All statistical analyses were done by Open Meta-Analyst. Results: Twenty six case-control studies involving 5,971 breast cancer patients and 7,253 controls were included in the present meta-analysis. The results showed that the COMT Val158Met polymorphism was significantly associated with breast cancer risk except heterozygote model(allele contrast odds ratio (ORAvsG)= 1.13, 95%CI=1.02-1.24,p=0.01; heterozygote/co-dominant ORGAvsGG= 1.03, 95%CI=0.96-1.11,p=0.34; homozygote ORAAvsGG= 1.38, 95%CI= 1.08-1.76,p=0.009; dominant model ORAA+GAvsGG= 1.08, 95%CI=1.01-1.16,p=0.02; and recessive model ORAAvsGA+GG= 1.35, 95%CI=1.07-1.71,p=0.01). In addition, we also performed subgroup analysis based on source of controls and menopausal state of patients. Conclusions: In conclusion, the COMT Val158Met polymorphism was related to increased breast cancer susceptibility in the Asian population.

Abstract
In first part of this study, a systematic review was designed to explore the involvement of CYP1A1 and GSTP1 genes in breast cancerogenesis. Based on systematic review, we designed a study to screen CYP1A1 and GSTP1 genes for mutation and their possible association with breast carcinogenesis. A total of 400 individuals were collected and analyzed by PCR-SSCP. After sequence analysis of coding region of CYP1A1 we identified eleven mutations in different exons of respective gene. Among these eleven mutations, ~3 folds increased breast cancer risk was found associated with Asp82Glu mutation (OR 2.99; 95% CI 1.26-7.09), with Ser83Thr mutation (OR 2.99; 95% CI 1.26-7.09) and with Glu86Ala mutation (OR 3.18; 95% CI 1.27-7.93) in cancer patients compared to controls. Furthermore, ~4 folds increase in breast cancer risk was found associated with Asp347Glu, Phe398Tyr and 5178delT mutations (OR 3.92; 95% CI 1.35-11.3) in patients compared to controls. The sequence analysis of GSTP1 resulted in identification of total five mutations. Among these five mutations, ~3 folds increase in breast cancer risk was observed associated with 1860G>A mutation, with 1861-1876delCAGCCCTCTGGAGTGG mutation (OR 2.70; 95% CI 1.10-6.62) and with 1861C>A mutation (OR 2.97; 95% CI 1.01-8.45) in cancer patients compared to controls. Furthermore, ~5 folds increase in breast cancer risk was associated with 1883G>T mutation (OR 4.75; 95% CI 1.46-15.3) and ~6 folds increase in breast cancer risk was found associated with Iso105Val mutation (OR 6.43; 95% CI 1.41-29.3) in cancer patients compared to controls. Our finding, based on systematic review and experimental data suggest that the polymorphic CYP1A1 and GSTP1 genes may contribute to risk of developing breast cancer.

Abstract
Catechol-O-methyltransferase, COMT, is an important phase II enzyme catalyzing the transfer of a methyl-group from S-adenosylmethionine to a catechol-containing substrate molecule. A genetic variant Val158Met in the COMT gene leads to a several-fold decrease in the enzymatic activity giving rise to the accumulation of potentially carcinogenic endogenous catechol estrogens and their reactive intermediates and increasing thus the risk of tumorigenesis. However, numerous association studies between the COMT genotype and susceptibility to various malignancies have shown inconsistent and controversial findings indicating that additional gene-gene and gene-environment interactions might be crucial in modulating the physiological role of the COMT. In this review article, the important contribution of dietary catechol-containing flavonoids to modification of the relationships between the COMT genotype and cancer risk is discussed. Whereas, the diverse anticancer activities of common phytochemicals, such as green tea polyphenols, quercetin, fisetin or luteolin, can be markedly changed (both decreased or increased) by the COMT-mediated O-methylation of these exogenous substrates, flavonoids can also behave as potent inhibitors of the COMT enzyme slowing detoxification of endogenous catechol estrogens. Such a many-featured functioning of the COMT and its complex regulation by several different genetic and environmental factors, including plant-based food ingredients, emphasizes the necessity to further stratify the association studies between the COMT genotype and tumor risk by consumption of catechol-containing dietary flavonoids. Currently, it can be only speculated that some of the possible associations might be masked by the regular intake of specific food polyphenols, taking effect in certain communities or populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies evaluated associations between the CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism and bladder cancer risk. However, the results were inconsistent. We therefore performed a meta-analysis of the published case-control studies to assess in detail the association between CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism and bladder cancer risk. MATERIALS AND METHODS PubMed, Embase and Web of Science were searched to identify relevant studies and the pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95 % confidence interval (95%CI) were calculated. RESULTS A total of seven articles including 3,013 cases and 2,771 controls were finally included. Overall, a significant association was found between the CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism and bladder cancer susceptibility for CC vs AA (OR=0.82, 95% CI=0.69~0.99), but no significant associations were found for the other three models (AC vs AA: OR=0.91, 95% CI=0.81~1.02; the dominant model: OR=0.90, 95% CI=0.80~1.00; the recessive model: OR=0.84, 95% CI =0.72~1.00). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, we detected significant associations between the CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism and bladder cancer susceptibility for GA vs GG (OR = 0.78, 95% CI =0.64~0.96) and for the recessive model (OR=0.80, 95% CI=0.66~0.96) in Caucasians, but not for Asians. CONCLUSIONS The results from the meta-analysis suggested that the CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism is a protective factor for bladder cancer, especially in Caucasians.

Population-level diversity in the association of genetic polymorphisms of one-carbon metabolism with breast cancer risk. J Community Genet 2016; 7:279-290.

Abstract
Aberrations in one-carbon metabolism were reported to increase breast cancer risk by influencing the DNA synthesis and methylation of DNA and catecholamines. However, the results of these association studies remain inconclusive. We have explored the contribution of eight genetic polymorphisms in modulating the susceptibility to breast cancer by performing a meta-analysis of worldwide studies. In total, 62 case-control studies representing 17 different populations involving 18,117 breast cancer cases and 23,573 healthy controls were included in this meta-analysis. Out of the eight polymorphisms analyzed, methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T exhibited positive association with the breast cancer risk in both fixed effects (OR 1.14, 95 % CI 1.10-1.17) and random effects (OR 1.10, 95 % CI 1.02-1.18) models. Solute carrier family 19 (folate transporter), member 1 (SLC19A1) G80A exhibited positive association (OR 1.16, 95 % CI 1.03-1.31) while MTR A2756G exhibited an inverse association (OR 0.78, 95 % CI 0.75-0.82) with the breast in fixed effect model alone. Significant heterogeneity was observed in the association of MTHFR C677T with breast cancer even between studies from the same geographical area, specifically among Chinese, Indians, and Turks. Subgroup analysis revealed MTHFR C677T-mediated breast cancer risk in post-menopausal women and women with low dietary intake of folate. Geographical area wise segregation of data revealed MTHFR-mediated increased breast cancer risk in populations who consume methionine-rich diet. Altitude-level variations were observed in the association of SHMT1 C1420T with breast cancer. India and Brazil of same altitude showed an inverse association with this polymorphism, while USA and China that share similar altitude showed a null association. MTHFR C677T and SLC19A1 G80A are the two polymorphisms of one-carbon metabolic pathway that increase breast cancer in the worldwide population. Dietary patterns and altitudinal variations are the likely risk modulators that are contributing toward ethnic- and population-level variations in genetic associations.

Abstract
Hydroxysteroid (17-beta)dehydrogenase 1(HSD17B1) plays a central role in sex steroid hormone metabolism. HSD17B1 polymorphic variants may contribute to cancer susceptibility. Numerous investigations have been conducted to assess the association between HSD17B1 Ser312Gly polymorphism and cancer risk in multiple ethnicities, yet these have produced inconsistent results. We therefore performed this comprehensive meta-analysis to attempt to provide a quality assessment of the association of interest. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate the strength of associations. After a systematic literature search of several major public databases, 20 studies involving 29,460 cases and 36,687 controls were included in this meta-analysis. No significant association was found between HSD17B1 Ser312Gly polymorphism and cancer risk. However, Ser312Gly polymorphism showed a significantly decreased risk for Caucasians (there were 44,284 Caucasians for analysis, comprising 19,889 cases and 24,395 controls) in the subgroup analysis by ethnicity (dominant: OR = 0.958, 95% CI = 0.919–0.998; and allele comparing: OR = 0.973, 95% CI = 0.947–0.999). And there was the same trend towards risk in the population-based (PB) controls (homozygous: OR = 0.951, 95% CI = 0.908–0.997 and allele comparing: OR = 0.976, 95% CI = 0.954–0.999), but not among Asians or hospital-based (HB) controls. In addition, no association was observed in the stratified analysis for breast cancer studies by source of control, ethnicity and quality score. These findings suggested that the HSD17B1 Ser312Gly polymorphism might confer genetic cancer susceptibility in an ethnic-dependent manner, especially among Caucasians. Well-designed, large-scale studies are warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polymorphisms in the CYP1A2 genes have the potential to affect the individual capacity to convert pre-carcinogens into carcinogens. With these comprehensive meta-analyses, we aimed to provide a quantitative assessment of the association between the published genetic association studies on CYP1A2 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the risk of cancer. METHODS We searched MEDLINE, ISI Web of Science and SCOPUS bibliographic online databases and databases of genome-wide association studies (GWAS). After data extraction, we calculated Odds Ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for the association between the retrieved CYP1A2 SNPs and cancer. Random effect model was used to calculate the pooled ORs. Begg and Egger tests, one-way sensitivity analysis were performed, when appropriate. We conducted stratified analyses by study design, sample size, ethnicity and tumour site. RESULTS Seventy case-control studies and one GWA study detailing on six different SNPs were included. Among the 71 included studies, 42 were population-based case-control studies, 28 hospital-based case-control studies and one genome-wide association study, including total of 47,413 cancer cases and 58,546 controls. The meta-analysis of 62 studies on rs762551, reported an OR of 1.03 (95% CI, 0.96-1.12) for overall cancer (P for heterogeneity < 0.01; I(2) = 50.4%). When stratifying for tumour site, an OR of 0.84 (95% CI, 0.70-1.01; P for heterogeneity = 0.23, I(2) = 28.5%) was reported for bladder cancer for those homozygous mutant of rs762551. An OR of 0.79 (95% CI, 0.65-0.95; P for heterogeneity = 0.09, I(2) = 58.1%) was obtained for the bladder cancer from the hospital-based studies and on Caucasians. CONCLUSIONS This large meta-analysis suggests no significant effect of the investigated CYP1A2 SNPs on cancer overall risk under various genetic models. However, when stratifying according to the tumour site, our results showed a borderline not significant OR of 0.84 (95% CI, 0.70-1.01) for bladder cancer for those homozygous mutant of rs762551. Due to the limitations of our meta-analyses, the results should be interpreted with attention and need to be further confirmed by high-quality studies, for all the potential CYP1A2 SNPs.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relative contribution of CYP1A2 isoforms (-3860 G/A, -2467T/delT and -163C/A) in control subjects and breast cancer patients to the metabolism of caffeine in human liver. Restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of PCR-amplified Fragments (PCR-RFLP) was used for the genotyping of CYP1A2 SNPs and HPLC allowed the phenotyping through the measurement of CYP1A2 activity using the 17X + 13X + 37X/137X urinary metabolite ratio (CMR) and plasma caffeine half life (T1/2). The CYP1A2 -3860A genotype was associated with a decreased risk of breast cancer. In contrast, distributions of the CYP1A2 -2467T/delT or -2467delT/delT and -163A/C or A/A genotypes among breast cancer patients and controls were similar. When the genotype and phenotype relationship was measured by comparing the mean CMR ratios and caffeine half life within the genotype groups between subjects and breast cancer patients, there were no significant differences except for -3860 A, most of them being homozygous for the -3860 G/G SNP and had a significant higher mean CMR ratio and half life than those with -3860 G/A (P=0.02). The results of this preliminary study show a significant association between CP1A2 -3860 G variant and CYP1A2 phenotype which must be confirmed by further large-size case-control studies.

Abstract
Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) plays a central role in DNA repair and estrogen-induced carcinogenesis. Many recent epidemiologic studies have investigated the association between the COMT Val158Met polymorphism and cancer risk, but the results are inconclusive. In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate the association between cancer susceptibility and COMT Val158Met in different genetic models. Overall, no significant associations were found between COMT Val158Met polymorphism and cancer risk (homozygote model: odds ratio [OR] =1.05, 95% confidence interval [CI] = [0.98, 1.13]; heterozygote model: OR =1.01, 95% CI = [0.98, 1.04]; dominant model: OR =1.02, 95% CI [0.97, 1.06], and recessive model: OR =1.03, 95% CI [0.97, 1.09]). In the subgroup analysis of cancer type, COMT Val158Met was significantly associated with increased risks of bladder cancer in recessive model, and esophageal cancer in homozygote model, heterozygote model, and dominant model. Subgroup analyses based on ethnicities, COMT Val158Met was significantly associated with increased risk of cancer in homozygote and recessive model among Asians. In addition, homozygote, recessive, and dominant models were significantly associated with increased cancer risk in the subgroup of allele-specific polymerase chain reaction genotyping. Significant associations were not observed when data were stratified by the source of the controls. In summary, this meta-analysis suggested that COMT Val158Met polymorphism might not be a risk factor for overall cancer risk, but it might be involved in cancer development at least in some ethnic groups (Asian) or some specific cancer types (bladder and esophageal cell cancer). Further evaluations of more preclinical and epidemiological studies are required.

Polymorphisms in CYP19A1, HSD17B1 and HSD17B2 genes and serum sex hormone level among postmenopausal Japanese women. Maturitas 2015; 82:394-401. [PMID: 26323233 DOI: 10.1016/j.maturitas.2015.08.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2015] [Revised: 08/07/2015] [Accepted: 08/08/2015] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Extraovarian sex hormone production plays an important role in estrogen biosynthesis in postmenopausal women. We examined possible associations between serum sex hormone level and polymorphisms in CYP19A1, HSD17B1, and HSD17B2. We also assessed possible interaction between these polymorphisms and current overweight. METHODS We conducted a cross-sectional study. 785 Japanese natural postmenopausal women were randomly selected from the Japan Multi-Institutional Collaborative Cohort (J-MICC) Study database. Information on lifestyle factors was obtained from a self-administered questionnaire. Serum estrogens and androgens levels were measured by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Four tag SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) of CYP19A1, one missense SNP of HSD17B1 and three tag SNPs of HSD17B2 were examined by Invader assay. A trend test was conducted using linear regression. RESULTS After adjustment for multiple comparisons, we found that rs4441215 and rs936306 in CYP19A1 and rs4888202 and rs2955160 in HSD17B2 were associated with differences in serum estrone level. Further, rs4441215 and rs936306 were associated with differences in serum estradiol level. None of these polymorphisms showed a significant interaction with current body mass index (BMI). CONCLUSIONS Our findings suggested that CYP19A1 and HSD17B2 polymorphisms might be associated with circulating sex hormone levels in Japanese postmenopausal women, independent of current BMI.

Abstract
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) mediates the control of environmental toxicity, and modulates the development and pathogenesis of the cardiovascular system. However, little is known about the role of AhR in coronary arterial disease (CAD) susceptibility. We therefore conducted a case-control study in a Chinese population, and assessed the potential association between AhR variants and CAD susceptibility. Compared with the controls, circulating AhR expression was found to be significantly increased in patients with CAD and its subtypes including ST-segment and non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction, and stable and unstable angina pectoris. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis to evaluate the effect of AhR on CAD progression showed it to be a potent biomarker for CAD. Genotype frequencies of AhR rs2066853 differed significantly between CAD and control subjects, while smoking and hyperlipidemia markedly promoted CAD risk relative to the AhR polymorphism. Moreover, a significant difference in AhR variant distribution was observed between the four CAD subtypes with different severities. The expression level and functional polymorphisms of circulating AhR may affect the susceptibility and progression of CAD in Chinese populations. This provides a novel view of the etiology and epidemiology of CAD, and will contribute to the diagnosis and therapy of this severe disease.

Role of cytochrome P450 genes in breast cancer etiology and treatment: effects on estrogen biosynthesis, metabolism, and response to endocrine therapy. Cancer Causes Control 2015; 26:319-32. [PMID: 25554091 DOI: 10.1007/s10552-014-0519-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2014] [Accepted: 12/19/2014] [Indexed: 10/24/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The cytochrome P450 (CYP) genes are oxygenases involved in estrogen biosynthesis and metabolism, generation of DNA damaging procarcinogens, and response to anti-estrogen therapies. Since lifetime estrogen exposure is an established risk factor for breast cancer, determining the role of CYP genes in breast cancer etiology may provide critical information for understanding tumorigenesis and response to treatment. METHODS This review summarizes literature available in PubMed published between 1993 and 2013 that focuses on studies evaluating the effects of DNA variants in CYP genes on estrogen synthesis, metabolism, and generation of procarcinogens in addition to response to anti-estrogen therapies. RESULTS Evaluation of DNA variants in estrogen metabolism genes was largely inconclusive. Meta-analyses of data from CYP19A1 support an association between the number of (TTTA) n repeats in intron 4 and breast cancer risk, but the biological mechanism for this relationship is unknown. Associations between single nucleotide polymorphism in CYP1B1 and DNA damage caused by procarcinogenic estrogen metabolites were ambiguous. Variants in CYP2D6 are associated with altered metabolism tamoxifen; however, current data do not support widespread clinical testing. The effect of variants in CYP19A1 in response to aromatase inhibitors is also questionable. CONCLUSION Evaluation of DNA variants in CYP genes involved with estrogen metabolism or treatment response has been inconclusive, reflecting small samples sizes, tumor heterogeneity, and differences between populations. Better-powered studies that account for genetic backgrounds and tumor phenotypes are thus necessary.

Abstract
The previously published data on the association between CYP1A2*1C (rs2069514) and CYP1A2*1F (rs762551) polymorphisms and cancer risk have remained controversial. Hence, we performed a meta-analysis to investigate the association between CYP1A2*1F and CYP1A2*1C polymorphisms and cancer risk under different inheritance models. Overall, significant association was observed between CYP1A2*1F and cancer risk when all the eligible studies were pooled into the meta-analysis (dominant model: OR 1.08, 95 % CI 1.02-1.15; heterozygous model: OR 1.06, 95 % CI 1.01-1.12; additive model: OR 1.07, 95 % CI 1.02-1.13). In the further stratified and sensitivity analyses, for CYP1A2*1F polymorphism, significantly increased lung cancer risk and significantly decreased bladder cancer risk were observed in Caucasians. For CYP1A2*1C polymorphism, no significant association was found in overall and all subgroup analyses. In summary, this meta-analysis suggests that CYP1A2*1F polymorphism is associated with lung cancer and bladder cancer risk in Caucasians.

Abstract
Purpose Previous studies investigating the association between EPHX1 polymorphisms (Tyr113His and His139Arg) and cancer risk have yielded inconsistent results. This meta-analysis was performed to derive a more precise estimation of relationship between two EPHX1 polymorphisms and risk of different types of cancer. Methods Data were extracted from relevant studies detected by a systematic literature search. Odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to assess the strength of the association between EPHX1 polymorphisms and cancer risk. Results This meta-analysis carefully collected 99 studies on these two polymorphisms and cancer risk published up to March 2014, consisting of 45 studies (20,091 cases and 27,396 controls) for Tyr113His and 54 studies (19,437 cases and 27,289 controls) for His139Arg. The results in overall population did not show any significant association between these two polymorphisms and cancer risk for all genetic models. However, EPHX1 Tyr113His homozygote individuals have a significantly increased risk of cancer among Asians (homozygote model: OR =1.46, 95% CI=1.05–2.03; recessive model: OR =1.39, 95% CI =1.10–1.76) and mixed population (homozygote model: OR =1.17, 95% CI =1.02–1.34; recessive model: OR =1.17, 95% CI =1.02–1.33), but not Caucasians. Conclusion His/His genotype of EPHX1 Tyr113His polymorphism is a risk factor for developing caner for Asian and mixed population, while no evidence was found for the association between the EPHX1 His139Arg polymorphism and increased cancer risk.

Abstract
CONTEXT Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) pathway has a key role in cellular detoxification mechanisms and seems implicated in tumorigenesis. Moreover, polymorphisms and mutations of AHR gene have been associated with several human and animal tumours. Although AHR has been found differently expressed in pituitary adenomas, AHR gene mutation status has never been investigated in acromegalic patients. DESIGN In this study, we evaluated patients with apparently sporadic GH-secreting pituitary adenoma for AHR gene variants. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy patients with sporadic GH-secreting pituitary adenoma (M = 27, age 59.1 ± 1.6 years) and 157 sex- and age-matched controls were enrolled in the study. In all patients and controls, the exons 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 of AHR gene were evaluated for nucleotide variants by sequencing analysis. RESULTS The rs2066853 polymorphism was identified in the exon 10 of 18/70 acromegalic patients and 9/157 healthy subjects (25.7 vs. 5.7%, χ(2) = 18.98 P < 0.0001), in homozygosis in one patient and in heterozygosis in the other 17 and in the 9 healthy subjects. Moreover, a heterozygous rs4986826 variant in exon 10 was identified in a patient with heterozygous rs2066853 polymorphism, and in the patient with homozygous rs2066853 variant. This second polymorphism was not detected in the control group. Patients with rs2066853 polymorphism showed increased IGF-1 ULN (P < 0.05) and prevalence of cavernous sinus invasion (P = 0.05), thyroid (P = 0.02), bladder (P = 0.0001) or lymphohematopoietic (P < 0.05) tumours. CONCLUSIONS AHR gene rs2066853 polymorphism is significantly more frequent in acromegalic patients than in healthy subjects and is associated with increased disease aggressivity. Moreover, the rs4986826 variant was detected in few patients with rs2066853 polymorphism, but its role is to be cleared.

Abstract
The association between the polymorphism of catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) Val158Met and breast cancer risk is still inconclusive. We performed a meta-analysis to derive a more precise estimation of the relationship. A total of 18 studies including 5,175 cases and 6,463 controls were involved in this meta-analysis. When all studies were pooled into the meta-analysis, no significantly elevated breast cancer risk was associated with all genetic models (for additive model: OR = 1.273, 95% CI = 0.947-1.711, P heterogeneity = 0.000; P = 0.110; for dominant model: OR = 1.080, 95% CI = 0.945-1.234, P heterogeneity = 0.001; P = 0.259; for recessive model: OR = 1.242, 95% CI = 0.941-1.641, P heterogeneity = 0.000; P = 0.126; for allele comparison model: OR = 1.096, 95% CI = 0.976-1.230, P heterogeneity = 0.000; P = 0.121). In the subgroup analysis by controls source, the same results were found in all genetic models. In summary, this meta-analysis suggests that the COMT Val158Met polymorphism is not a risk factor for breast cancer development. However, large sample and representative population-based studies with homogeneous breast cancer patients and well-matched controls are warranted to confirm this finding.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emerging evidence showed that the common polymorphism (CYP1A2 1F, rs762551 C→A) in the promoter region of the CYP1A2 gene might be associated with susceptibility to cancer in humans. But individually published results were inconclusive. The aim of this meta-analysis is to investigate the association between CYP1A2 1F polymorphism and cancer risk. METHODS The Pubmed, Embase, Web of Science and Chinese BioMedical databases were searched for all articles published up to September 1st, 2012. Statistical analyses were performed using the STATA 12.0 software. RESULTS Forty-six case-control studies were included with a total of 22,993 cancer cases and 28,420 healthy controls. Meta-analysis results showed that the A allele of CYP1A2 1F polymorphism was associated with a decreased cancer risk (odds ratio [OR]=0.92, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.87-0.98, P=0.013). In the subgroup analysis by cancer types, the A allele of CYP1A2 1F polymorphism may increase the risk of breast cancer (OR=1.05, 95% CI: 1.01-1.10, P=0.024), and is also associated with a decreased risk of ovarian cancer (OR=0.70, 95% CI: 0.54-0.89, P=0.004). However, similar results were not found in lung, colorectal, bladder, endometrial, pancreatic and gastric cancers. Further subgroup analysis by ethnicity also showed a significant association between the A allele of CYP1A2 1F polymorphism and a decreased cancer risk among Caucasian populations (OR=0.91, 95% CI: 0.84-0.98, P=0.014); but no significant associations were observed among Asian populations. CONCLUSIONS Results from the current meta-analysis indicate that the A allele of CYP1A2 1F polymorphism may be associated with breast and ovarian cancer risk, especially among Caucasian populations.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Experimental and epidemiologic evidence have suggested that chronic inflammation may play a critical role in endometrial carcinogenesis. METHODS To investigate this hypothesis, a two-stage study was carried out to evaluate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in inflammatory pathway genes in association with endometrial cancer risk. In stage I, 64 candidate pathway genes were identified and 4,542 directly genotyped or imputed SNPs were analyzed among 832 endometrial cancer cases and 2,049 controls, using data from the Shanghai Endometrial Cancer Genetics Study. Linkage disequilibrium of stage I SNPs significantly associated with endometrial cancer (P < 0.05) indicated that the majority of associations could be linked to one of 24 distinct loci. One SNP from each of the 24 loci was then selected for follow-up genotyping. Of these, 21 SNPs were successfully designed and genotyped in stage II, which consisted of 10 additional studies including 6,604 endometrial cancer cases and 8,511 controls. RESULTS Five of the 21 SNPs had significant allelic odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) as follows: FABP1, 0.92 (0.85-0.99); CXCL3, 1.16 (1.05-1.29); IL6, 1.08 (1.00-1.17); MSR1, 0.90 (0.82-0.98); and MMP9, 0.91 (0.87-0.97). Two of these polymorphisms were independently significant in the replication sample (rs352038 in CXCL3 and rs3918249 in MMP9). The association for the MMP9 polymorphism remained significant after Bonferroni correction and showed a significant association with endometrial cancer in both Asian- and European-ancestry samples. CONCLUSIONS These findings lend support to the hypothesis that genetic polymorphisms in genes involved in the inflammatory pathway may contribute to genetic susceptibility to endometrial cancer. Impact statement: This study adds to the growing evidence that inflammation plays an important role in endometrial carcinogenesis.

[PMID: 23157985 PMCID: PMC3526566 DOI: 10.1186/1471-2407-12-528] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2012] [Accepted: 11/08/2012] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Genetic polymorphism (rs762551A>C) in gene encoding cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) has been shown to influence the inducibility of CYP1A2 expression and thus might be associated with risk of several types of human cancer. However, the results of previous studies on the associations of this polymorphism with risk of cancer are not all consistent. To clarify the potential contribution of CYP1A2 rs762551 to cancer risk, we performed a meta-analysis of the published case-control studies. METHODS We used PubMed, Embase, OVID, ScienceDirect, and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure databases to identify the related publications for this meta-analysis. The pooled odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were calculated using random effect model to evaluate the association of rs762551 with cancer risk. A χ(2)-based Q-test was used to examine the heterogeneity assumption and the funnel plot and Egger's test were used to examine the potential publication bias. The leave-one-out sensitivity analysis was conducted to determine whether our assumptions or decisions have a major effect on the results of the review. RESULTS Our analysis of 19 eligible case-control studies showed a significant association between rs762551C variant with risk of cancer in the genetic model of CC versus AA (OR = 1.30, 95% CI = 1.02-1.64) and the dominant model (OR = 1.19, 95% CI = 1.04-1.36). In subgroup analysis based on ethnicity, the rs762551CC genotype was associated with increased cancer risk (OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 1.27-1.63 in co-dominate model and OR = 1.17, 95% CI = 1.02-1.34 in dominant model in Caucasians, but not in Asians and the mixed population. CONCLUSION These results suggested that CYP1A2 rs762551 polymorphism is likely to be associated with susceptibility to cancer in Caucasians.

Abstract
Cytochrome P4501A2 (CYP1A2) is a key enzyme in the etiology of breast cancer (BC). It is involved in breast carcinogen activation [aromatic (AAs) and heterocyclic amines (HAs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)], in the production of beneficial oestrogen [2-hydroxyestrone (2-OHE1)] and in converting arachidonic acid (AAc) to epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs), which have anti-inflammatory properties. Within a hospital-based case-control study, the effect of functional CYP1A2 variants [-3860G/A (rs2069514), -2467T/delT (rs3569413), -163C/A (rs762551)] and their interactions with environmental factors in BC risk was investigated. The study population included 125 BC cases and 43 non-cancer controls. Genotyping was performed in RT-PCR using Taqman assays. The gene-environment interaction was appraised using a case-only study design. We found that the -3860A variant, independently from environmental factors, as well as by interacting with fried foods (p=0.025) and indoor exposure to pollutants (p=0.050), reduced the risk of BC (p=0.025), whereas its interaction with coffee (p=0.045) increased the BC risk. This is the first study indicating that the -3860A variant, by decreasing CYP1A2 activity, modifies BC risk by interacting with environmental factors, thereby supporting the hypothesis that reduced CYP1A2 activity contributes to BC risk in different ways, for example, it may be protective by reducing the activation of pro-carcinogens such as AAs, HAs and PAHs, but would increase risk by reducing the beneficial formation of 2-OHE1 and EETs.

Abstract
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the CYP2C gene cluster have been extensively investigated as predisposing factors for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced peptic ulcer disease (PUD) or upper gastrointestinal bleeding (UGIB). However, results have been inconclusive owing to different study designs, limited genotyping strategies, and small sample sizes. We investigated whether eight functional SNPs in the CYP2C family of genes--CYP2C8*3 (rs11572080 and rs10509681), CYP2C8*4, CYP2C9*2, CYP2C9*3, CYP2C19*2, CYP2C19*3, and CYP2C19*17--are associated with PUD in 1,239 Caucasian patients. Logistic regression analysis showed that only CYP2C19*17 was associated with PUD (odds ratio additive model: 1.47 (95% confidence interval (CI) 1.12 to 1.92); P = 0.005; R(2) 16%), but not UGIB, independent of NSAID use or Helicobacter pylori infection. PUD distribution varied (P = 0.024) according to CYP2C19*17 genotype: *1/*1, 490 (64.3%); *1/*17, 304 (71.7%); and *17/*17, 31 (73.8%). CYP2C19*17, a gain-of-function polymorphism, is associated with PUD irrespective of etiology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is one of the most important enzymes involved in estrogen metabolism and its functional genetic polymorphisms may be associated with breast cancer (BC) risk. Many epidemiological studies have been conducted to explore the association between the COMT Val158Met polymorphism and breast cancer risk. However, the results remain inconclusive. In order to derive a more precise estimation of this relationship, a large meta-analysis was performed in this study. METHODS Systematic searches of the PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library were performed. Crude odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the strength of the association. RESULTS A total of 56 studies including 34,358 breast cancer cases and 45,429 controls were included. Overall, no significant associations between the COMT Val158Met polymorphism and breast cancer risk were found for LL versus HH, HL versus HH, LL versus HL, recessive model LL versus HL+HH, and dominant model LL+HL versus HH. In subgroup analysis by ethnicity, source of controls, and menopausal status, there was still no significant association detected in any of the genetic models. CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis results suggest that the COMT Val158Met polymorphism may not contribute to breast cancer susceptibility.

Abstract
Breast cancer is associated to estrogen exposure. Allelic variants involved in estrogen metabolism might change the risk of developing this neoplasia. We examined the potential association of breast cancer risk in Mexican women with the polymorphisms CYP1A1 rs1048943, CYP1B1 rs1056836, COMT rs4680, GSTP1 rs1695, GSTT1 null and GSTM1 null which are involved in estrogen metabolism pathway. This study included 150 cases and 150 controls. A significant association was observed between, CYP1A1 rs1048943 (OR = 1.95, C.I. 1.13-3.36) and GSTP1 rs1695 (OR = 2.39, C.I. 1.24-4.24) polymorphisms with the risk of breast cancer. This risk was increased when the women were stratified according to their menopausal status. The results show that breast cancer risk significantly increases in women with 3-6 risk polymorphisms (OR = 3.75, C.I. 1.44-9.74).

Abstract
Betel Quid (BQ) chewing independently contributes to oral, hepatic and esophageal carcinomas. Strong association of breast cancer risk with BQ chewing in Northeast Indian population has been reported where this habit is prodigal. We investigated genomic alterations in breast cancer patients with and without BQ chewing exposure. Twenty six BQ chewers (BQC) and 17 non BQ chewer (NBQC) breast cancer patients from Northeast India were analyzed for genomic alterations and pathway networks using SNP array and IPA. BQC tumors showed significantly (P<0.01) higher total number of alterations, as compared with NBQC tumors, 48±17% versus 32±25 respectively. Incidence of gain in fragile sites in BQC tumors were significantly (P<0.001) higher as compared with NBQC tumors, 34 versus 23% respectively. Two chromosomal regions (7q33 and 21q22.13) were significantly (p<0.05) associated with BQC tumors while two regions (19p13.3–19p12 and 20q11.22) were significantly associated with NBQC tumors. GO terms oxidoreductase and aldo-keto reductase activity in BQC tumors in contrast to G-protein coupled receptor protein signaling pathway and cell surface receptor linked signal transduction in NBQC tumors were enriched in DAVID. One network “Drug Metabolism, Molecular Transport, Nucleic Acid Metabolism” including genes AKR1B1, AKR1B10, ETS2 etc in BQC and two networks “Molecular Transport, Nucleic Acid Metabolism, Small Molecule Biochemistry” and “Cellular Development, Embryonic Development, Organismal Development” including genes RPN2, EMR3, VAV1, NNAT and MUC16 etc were seen in NBQC. Common alterations (>30%) were seen in 27 regions. Three networks were significant in common regions with key roles of PTK2, RPN2, EMR3, VAV1, NNAT, MUC16, MYC and YWHAZ genes. These data show that breast cancer arising by environmental carcinogens exemplifies genetic alterations differing from those observed in the non exposed ones. A number of genetic changes are shared in both tumor groups considered as crucial in breast cancer progression.
