Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231710010. [PMID: 36077407 PMCID: PMC9456222 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231710010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2022] [Revised: 08/15/2022] [Accepted: 08/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Low urine pH and volume are established risk factors for uric acid (UA) stone disease (UASD). Renal tubular epithelial cells exposed to an acidic pH and/or UA crystals can shed extracellular vesicles (EVs) into the tubular fluid, and these EVs may be a pathogenic biomarker of UASD. Methods: Urinary EVs bearing UA transporters (SLC2A9, SLC17A3, SLC22A12, SLC5A8, ABCG2, and ZNF365) were quantified in urine from UA stone formers (UASFs), calcium stone formers (CSFs), and age-/sex-matched non-stone formers (NSFs) using a standardized and published method of digital flow cytometry. Results: Urinary pH was lower (p < 0.05) and serum and urinary UA were greater (p < 0.05) in UASFs compared with NSFs. Urinary EVs carrying SLC17A3 and SLC5A8 were lower (p < 0.05) in UASFs compared with NSFs. Urinary EVs bearing SLC2A9, SLC22A12, SLC5A8, ABCG2, and ZNF365 were lower (p < 0.05) in CSFs than UASFs, while excretion of SLC17A3-bearing EVs did not differ between groups. Conclusion: EVs bearing specific UA transporters might contribute to the pathogenesis of UASD and represent non-invasive pathogenic biomarkers for calcium and UA stone risk.

High prevalence of hypocitraturia in stone formers from the Maya region of Yucatan, Mexico. Arch Med Res 2021; 53:69-78. [PMID: 34243991 DOI: 10.1016/j.arcmed.2021.05.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2020] [Revised: 02/26/2021] [Accepted: 05/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Urinary Stone Disease (USD) arises from an interaction of genetic and environmental factors. Urinary metabolic abnormalities are well described as risk factors. In Mexico, the Maya region holds the highest prevalence of USD. Treatment of these abnormalities lowers the risk of recurrences. AIM Assess the underlying metabolic abnormalities of patients with USD to provide a rationale to lead further prevention strategies. METHODS Clinical and demographical data from patients coming to the Stone Clinic were prospectively collected along with a 24 h urinary panel to identify metabolic abnormalities. All participants signed consent and the study was approved by the hospital's institutional review board. RESULTS A total of 126 patients were included, with a mean age of 47.2 ± 13 years, 75.4% were female. A positive family history of stones was observed in 40 and 87.3% were overweight/obese. The frequency of hypocitraturia, hypercalciuria, hypomagnesuria, hyperoxaluria, and hyperuricosuria was 91.3, 68.5, 42.1, 36.5, and 26.6%, respectively. Median urinary citrate was 79.5 (37.5-160) mg/24 h and was inversely correlated to glycemia. Urine Calcium/Creatinine index was correlated with Hounsfield units (HU) (p = 0.01). Oxalate was correlated with HU and stone burden. Interestingly, dietary distribution of macro- and micronutrients were similar between groups. Patients with a single kidney had lower citrate and higher urinary calcium. CONCLUSIONS Interestingly, a shortage of inhibitors such as citrate and magnesium are highly prevalent in patients with USD from the Maya region and seems to be influenced by other metabolic conditions as malnutrition next to the genetic component.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The published studies regarding the relationships between zinc finger 365 (ZNF365) polymorphisms and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) risk in Caucasians have yielded conflicting results. Therefore, we performed a meta-analysis to clarify this issue. METHODS The Electronic databases of PubMed, Web of Science, Wiley Online Library, and EMBASE were searched for eligible studies up to 31 November 2020. The quality of eligible studies was evaluated using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. The pooled odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) under different genetic models were calculated to assess the strength of associations. RESULTS A total of 22 relevant case-control studies with 9542 ulcerative colitis (UC) patients and 13,886 controls, as well as 13,651 Crohn's disease (CD) patients and 15,256 controls, were involved in our meta-analysis. rs10761659 polymorphism significantly decreased CD and UC risk (except for the heterozygous model and the dominant model in UC), and rs10995271 polymorphism was significantly associated with UC (except for the heterozygous model and dominant model) rather than CD. CONCLUSIONS The meta-analysis demonstrated that the rs10761659 polymorphism might be a protective factor for both UC and CD in Caucasians, while the rs10995271 polymorphism might be a risk factor for UC rather than CD in Caucasians.

Oncol Lett 2020; 20:85. [PMID: 32863918 PMCID: PMC7436887 DOI: 10.3892/ol.2020.11946] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2019] [Accepted: 06/26/2020] [Indexed: 01/11/2023] Open
Abstract
ZNF365 is a transcription factor that plays important roles in different types of cancer, such as colorectal cancer, breast cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. ZNF365 can promote stalled replication fork recovery to prevent genomic instability, which is a notable feature of sporadic and hereditary types of cancers. However, the function of ZNF365 in the tumor progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. Thus, immunohistochemical staining was used to investigate the association between ZNF365 expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of patients with colorectal cancer. The results demonstrated that ZNF365 protein was strongly expressed in the nucleus and cytoplasm of normal colorectal mucosa. Furthermore ZNF365, which is methylated and downregulated in most cancer cell lines and tissues, was significantly associated with lymph node metastasis (P=0.015), depth of invasion (P=0.031) and histopathological grading (P=0.042). A positive correlation was observed between ZNF365 expression and phosphorylated (P)-p53 (Ser15) protein expression (r=0.18; P=0.038). Survival analysis indicated that patients with high ZNF365 expression had a higher survival rate than those with low ZNF365 expression (P=0.009), suggesting that ZNF365 may be an independent prognostic factor for survival in colorectal cancer (P=0.046). Taken together, the results of the present study demonstrated that ZNF365 was frequently inactivated by promoter methylation and independently predicted poor prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer by downregulating P-p53 (Ser15) expression.

[PMID: 30742686 PMCID: PMC6370244 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0212183] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2018] [Accepted: 01/29/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Because of lacking studies of urolithiasis in children, we detected the biochemical metabolic levels and FokⅠ polymorphisms in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) in Uyghur children with urolithiasis, and evaluated the associations of biochemical metabolic levels with FokⅠ genotypes. We included 142 Uyghur children (108 males) under age 14 years with a diagnosis of urolithiasis and 238 Uyghur children (154 males) under age 14 years without a history of urolithiasis as controls. Baseline information and data for serum and urine parameters were obtained from medical records. PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) was used to analyze the VDR FokⅠ polymorphisms. In univariate analyses adjusting for age and sex, carbon dioxide combining power (CO2CP) (odds ratio [OR] = 1.13, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07-1.19), serum magnesium (Mg) (OR = 1.27, 95% CI: 1.03-1.56) and serum chlorine (Cl) (OR = 0.93, 95% CI: 0.88-0.97) were related to Uyghur children urolithiasis risk. A multiple logistic regression model showed CO2CP (OR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.09-1.26), levels of uric acid (OR = 1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.01) and serum sodium (Na) (OR = 0.90, 95% CI: 0.82-0.99) were associated with pediatric urolithiasis. The risk of urolithiasis was increased with the F versus f allele overall (OR = 1.42; 95% CI: 1.01-2.00) and for males (OR = 1.52, 95% CI: 1.02-2.27). However, metabolic levels did not differ by FokⅠ genotypes. In our population, CO2CP and levels of uric acid and serum Na as well as polymorphism of the F allele of the VDR FokⅠ may provide important clues to evaluate the risk of urolithiasis in Uyghur children.

Association between vitamin D receptor gene polymorphisms and idiopathic hypocitraturia in a Chinese Bai population. Urolithiasis 2018; 47:235-242. [PMID: 29926136 DOI: 10.1007/s00240-018-1069-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2017] [Accepted: 06/11/2018] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Idiopathic hypocitraturia (IH) is a risk factor for urolithiasis. IH is associated with vitamin D receptor (VDR) gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a Chinese Han population. However, this association between VDR SNPs and IH has not been recapitulated in a Chinese Bai population. The aim of this study is to investigate the association between VDR SNPs and IH in a Chinese Bai population. A total of 320 participants comprising of 200 Chinese Bai patients with IH and 120 Chinese Bai control participants with normal urinary citrate level were enrolled for this study. The VDR SNPs rs7975232, rs2228570, rs731236 and rs1544410 were detected by Sanger sequencing, and the association between these SNPs and the presence of IH in the Chinese Bai population was analyzed. The prevalence of VDR SNPs rs7975232 allele A and rs2228570 genotype TT was significantly higher in patients than in controls (p < 0.0125, after Bonferroni correction). The haplotype TCGC was a protective factor in the Chinese Bai population who otherwise might suffer from IH, while the haplotype TTGA was a risk factor. VDR SNPs rs731236 and rs1544410 have a linkage disequilibrium value of 0.811. VDR SNPs rs7975232, rs2228570, and haplotypes TCGC, TTGA are associated with IH in a Chinese Bai population.

[PMID: 28095793 PMCID: PMC5240212 DOI: 10.1186/s12881-016-0366-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2016] [Accepted: 12/30/2016] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
Background Reduced renal excretion of uric acid plays a significant role in the development of hyperuricemia and gout in adults. Hyperuricemia has been associated with chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular disease in children and adults. There are limited genome-wide association studies associating genetic polymorphisms with renal urate excretion measures. Therefore, we investigated the genetic factors that influence the excretion of uric acid and related indices in 768 Hispanic children of the Viva La Familia Study. Methods We performed a genome-wide association analysis for 24-h urinary excretion measures such as urinary uric acid/urinary creatinine ratio, uric acid clearance, fractional excretion of uric acid, and glomerular load of uric acid in SOLAR, while accounting for non-independence among family members. Results All renal urate excretion measures were significantly heritable (p <2 × 10−6) and ranged from 0.41 to 0.74. Empirical threshold for genome-wide significance was set at p <1 × 10−7. We observed a strong association (p < 8 × 10−8) of uric acid clearance with a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in zinc finger protein 446 (ZNF446) (rs2033711 (A/G), MAF: 0.30). The minor allele (G) was associated with increased uric acid clearance. Also, we found suggestive associations of uric acid clearance with SNPs in ZNF324, ZNF584, and ZNF132 (in a 72 kb region of 19q13; p <1 × 10−6, MAFs: 0.28–0.31). Conclusion For the first time, we showed the importance of 19q13 region in the regulation of renal urate excretion in Hispanic children. Our findings indicate differences in inherent genetic architecture and shared environmental risk factors between our cohort and other pediatric and adult populations.
