Analysis of Relationships between Immune Checkpoint and Methylase Gene Polymorphisms and Outcomes after Unrelated Bone Marrow Transplantation. Cancers (Basel) 2021; 13:cancers13112752. [PMID: 34206082 PMCID: PMC8199545 DOI: 10.3390/cancers13112752] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2021] [Revised: 05/25/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Simple Summary Hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative therapy for blood disorders. Unrelated bone marrow transplantation (uBMT) is a type of allogeneic HSCT that uses the bone marrow of an unrelated donor. While HLA mismatch is a risk factor for poor outcomes in HSCT, such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), the importance of non-HLA single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) remains unclear. The clinical application of immune checkpoint and chromatin methylation inhibitors to cancer has been attracting attention. In the present study, we retrospectively genotyped five SNPs in four immune checkpoint genes, BTLA, PD-1, LAG3, and CTLA4, and two SNPs in methylase genes, DNMT1 and EZH2, in 999 uBMT pairs. Although no correlations were observed between these SNPs and post-uBMT outcomes, recipient EZH2 SNP exhibited a low p-value in the analysis of grade 2–4 acute GVHD (p = 0.010). This SNP may be useful for outcome predictions and needs to be confirmed in a larger-scale study. Abstract Unrelated bone marrow transplantation (uBMT) is performed to treat blood disorders, and it uses bone marrow from an unrelated donor as the transplant source. Although the importance of HLA matching in uBMT has been established, that of other genetic factors, such as single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), remains unclear. The application of immunoinhibitory receptors as anticancer drugs has recently been attracting attention. This prompted us to examine the importance of immunoinhibitory receptor SNPs in uBMT. We retrospectively genotyped five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the immune checkpoint genes, BTLA, PD-1, LAG3, and CTLA4, and two SNPs in the methylase genes, DNMT1 and EZH2, in 999 uBMT donor–recipient pairs coordinated through the Japan Marrow Donor Program matched at least at HLA-A, -B, and -DRB1. No correlations were observed between these SNPs and post-uBMT outcomes (p > 0.005). This result questions the usefulness of these immune checkpoint gene polymorphisms for predicting post-BMT outcomes. However, the recipient EZH2 histone methyltransferase gene SNP, which encodes the D185H substitution, exhibited a low p-value in regression analysis of grade 2–4 acute graft-versus-host disease (p = 0.010). Due to a low minor allele frequency, this SNP warrants further investigation in a larger-scale study.

Abstract
Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV-1) infections are characterized by dysfunctional cellular and humoral antiviral immune responses. The progressive loss of effector functions in chronic viral infection has been associated with the up-regulation of programmed death-1 (PD-1), a negative regulator of activated T cells and Natural Killer cells. In HIV-1 infection, increased levels of PD-1 expression correlate with CD8 + T-cell exhaustion. In vitro, PD-1 blockade using PD-1 antibodies led to an increase in HIV-1 specific CD8 + T and memory B cell proliferation. We aimed to investigate the impact of PDCD1 rs10204525 polymorphism on HIV-1 susceptibility, AIDS development, and treatment response outcomes in HIV-1 infection in a Moroccan population. A total of 214 HIV-1 seropositive and 250 seronegative subjects were enrolled to investigate the association between the between the single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs10204525 of PDCD1 gene and HIV-1 pathogenesis using a predesigned TaqMan SNP genotyping assay. No significant association was found between rs10204525 and susceptibility to HIV-1 infection and AIDS development (p > 0.05). Genotype frequencies were significantly associated with the viral load before ART (p = 0.0105). HIV-1 viral load was significantly higher among subjects with the CC compared to TT genotype (p = 0.0043). In treated subjects, the median of viral load levels was significantly higher in CC and CT groups than TT subjects (p < 0.005). However, analysis of the correlation between CD4 + T-cell levels and PDCD1 polymorphism before and after ART showed no significant difference (p > 0.05). Our results demonstrated that rs10204525 polymorphism does not affect HIV-1 infection. However, this polymorphism may affect the response to treatment as measured by RNA viral load levels.

Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV)-specific CD8+ T cells play an important role in the clearance of HBV infection. Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1), an immunosuppressive molecule that regulates T-cell activation and peripheral immune tolerance, is increasingly shown to influence the outcome of HBV infection. rs10204525, a single-nucleotide polymorphism in the 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) of PD-1, has been associated with susceptibility and disease progression of chronic HBV infection in far-eastern patients. The aim of our study was to assess the impact of rs10204525 variation on HBV infection in Moroccan patients. A total of 236 patients with chronic HBV infection and 134 individuals with spontaneous HBV resolution were genotyped using a Taqman assay. In addition, PD-1 mRNA expression in peripheral blood nuclear cells was determined by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. We found that the AA genotype is protective (odds ratio, 0.43; 95% confidence interval, 0.19 to 0.97; P = 0.038) against HBV infection. Interestingly, PD-1 messenger RNA (mRNA) expression analysis has revealed that chronic HBV carriers with GG and GA displayed higher levels of PD-1 mRNA compared with corresponding genotypes in resolved subjects (P = 0.031 and 0.014, respectively). Our data suggest that Mediterranean HBV-infected patients carrying PD-1 GG and GA genotypes at rs10204525 have high PD-1 mRNA expression and may be more prone to installation of chronicity.

Abstract
Background Previously, many studies have evaluated quality of life (QoL) in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS), however, none of them specifically investigated the correlation between pain-related disability measured by Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) and QoL in AS patients. In addition, the correlation between global kyphosis (GK) in lateral plain radiographs and QoL in AS patients remains unclear up to now. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate QoL and correlation with clinical and radiographic variables in AS patients, especially to figure out the relationship about the pain-specific disability measured by ODI, GK and QoL. Methods From January 2008 to November 2015, two hundred and forty-five consecutive patients with an average age of 36.2 ± 10.9 years (range, 17–66 years) satisfying the Modified New York Criteria for AS from a single institution were enrolled. Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index (BASDAI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Metrology Index (BASMI) and Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Global score (BAS-G) were applied to assess the disease activity, functional status, spinal mobility and overall feeling of AS patients, respectively. ODI was recorded to evaluate low back pain-related disability. QoL was evaluated by the Short Form-36 (SF-36). According to global kyphosis (GK) measured on standing lateral full-spine radiographs, the patients were divided into two groups: mild kyphotic group (GK < 70°,n = 176) and severe kyphotic group (GK ≥ 70°,n = 69). Results The scores of BASDAI, BASFI, BASMI and ODI had significant negative correlations with all SF-36 subscale scores (P < 0.01). BASFI and BASMI scores of severe kyphotic group were much higher than those of mild kyphotic group, respectively (P = 0.005 and P = 0.001, respectively) and the score of physical function (PF) subscale in severe kyphotic group was significantly higher than that in mild kyphotic group (P = 0.046) as well. Notably, the scores of ODI, BASFI and BASMI were the major predictors of PF subscale score of SF-36. Conclusions Poor QoL is significantly correlated with high disease activity, poor functional status and decreased spinal mobility in AS. GK is significantly associated with functional status, spinal mobility and QoL in AS patients. ODI, BASFI and BASMI are the major predictors of PF subscale of SF-36.

Abstract
Both vertebral body wedging and disc wedging are found in ankylosing spondylitis (AS) patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis. However, their relative contribution to thoracolumbar kyphosis is not fully understood. The objective of this study was to compare different contributions of vertebral and disc wedging to the thoracolumbar kyphosis in AS patients, and to analyze the relationship between the apical vertebral wedging angle and thoracolumbar kyphosis.From October 2009 to October 2013, a total of 59 consecutive AS patients with thoracolumbar kyphosis with a mean age of 38.1 years were recruited in this study. Based on global kyphosis (GK), 26 patients with GK < 70° were assigned to group A, and the other 33 patients with GK ≥ 70° were included in group B. Each GK was divided into disc wedge angles and vertebral wedge angles. The wedging angle of each disc and vertebra comprising the thoracolumbar kyphosis was measured, and the proportion of the wedging angle to the GK was calculated accordingly. Intergroup and intragroup comparisons were subsequently performed to investigate the different contributions of disc and vertebra to the GK. The correlation between the apical vertebral wedging angle and GK was calculated by Pearson correlation analysis. The duration of disease and sex were also recorded in this study.With respect to the mean disease duration, significant difference was observed between the two groups (P < 0.01). The wedging angle and wedging percentage of discs were significantly higher than those of vertebrae in group A (34.8° ± 2.5° vs 26.7° ± 2.7°, P < 0.01 and 56.6% vs 43.4%, P < 0.01), whereas disc wedging and disc wedging percentage were significantly lower than vertebrae in group B (37.6° ± 7.0° vs 50.1° ± 5.1°, P < 0.01 and 42.7% vs 57.3%, P < 0.01). The wedging of vertebrae was significantly higher in group B than in group A (50.1° ± 5.1° vs 26.7° ± 2.7°, P < 0.01). Additionally, correlation analysis revealed a significant correlation between the apical vertebral wedging angle and GK (R = 0.850, P = 0.001).Various disc and vertebral wedging exist in thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to AS. The discs wedging contributes more to the thoracolumbar kyphosis in patients with GK < 70° than vertebral wedging, whereas vertebral wedging is more conducive to the thoracolumbar kyphosis in patients with GK ≥ 70°, indicating different biomechanical pathogenesis in varied severity of thoracolumbar kyphosis secondary to AS.

Abstract
Previous surveys had evaluated the effects of the PD-1, CTLA-4 gene polymorphisms on susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis (AS), but the results remained controversial. To briefly examine these consequences, a comprehensive meta-analysis was conducted to estimate the relationships between PD-1 rs11568821, rs2227982, rs2227981, CTLA-4 +49 A/G and -318 C/T polymorphisms and AS risk. The available articles dated to December 2014 were searched in the PUBMED, MEDLINE and EMBASE databases. The data of the genotypes and/or alleles for the PD-1 rs11568821, rs2227982, rs2227981, CTLA-4 +49 A/G and -318 C/T polymorphisms in the AS and control subjects were extracted, and statistical analysis was conducted by STATA 11.2 software. Summary odds ratios (ORs) with their 95 % confidence intervals (95 % CIs) were calculated to determine the strength of associations with fixed-effects or random-effects models. A total of eight published studies were finally involved in this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of PD-1 rs2227982 polymorphism under the T allele versus C allele (OR 1.744, 95 % CI 1.477-2.059, P < 0.0001), TT+TC versus CC (OR 2.292, 95 % CI 1.654-3.175, P < 0.0001), TT versus CC (OR 1.883, 95 % CI 1.299-2.729, P = 0.001) revealed a significant association with AS. Our meta-analysis demonstrated that the rs2227982 polymorphism in the PD-1 gene might contribute to AS susceptibility. However, further studies with large sample sizes and among different ethnicity populations should be required to confirm this association.

Abstract
Programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) is an important co-inhibitory molecule involved in the progression of chronic viral infections. To investigate the associations of three single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (rs10204525, rs2227982 and rs36084323) in PD-1 and a previously well-inquired SNP rs12979860 in IL-28B with the outcomes of hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection in Southeast China, a total of 375 healthy controls, 219 spontaneous resolved HCV patients and 600 chronic HCV patients were enrolled in this study. The generation of HCV F protein and PD-1 expression on T cells was determined. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed no association of rs12979860 CC genotype with spontaneous clearance of HCV infection in our subjects. The generation of HCV F protein was significantly related to HCV infection chronicity, but no significant relationship was found between HCV F protein and SNPs in PD-1. The rs10204525 TT genotype was associated with an increased risk of HCV infection chronicity in age ⩽56years subgroup (adjusted OR=0.390, P=3.8×10(-4)). The C allele of rs10204525 played protective roles in females infected with HCV (adjusted OR=0.608, P=0.008). A significant higher percentage of PD-1 expression on T cells was observed in rs10204525 TT genotype when compared to CC genotype (P=0.047). Moreover, a significant genotype-genotype interaction between IL-28B rs12979860 CC and PD-1 rs10204525 TC+CC was found to be associated with higher rates of spontaneous clearance (adjusted OR=0.689, P=0.032). The combined effect of rs12979860 and rs10204525 was of great value in predicting the outcomes of HCV infection. These analyses showed the importance of IL-28B and PD-1 polymorphisms and their interactions in the outcomes of HCV infection in Chinese Han population in Southeast China.

Yang M, Zou Y, Bai Y, Li M. The programmed cell death 1 gene polymorphisms (PD 1.3 G/A, PD 1.5 C/T and PD 1.9 C/T) and susceptibility to ankylosing spondylitis: a meta-analysis. J Orthop Sci 2015; 20:55-63. [PMID: 25270018 DOI: 10.1007/s00776-014-0648-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2014] [Accepted: 09/02/2014] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The objective is to integrate all the eligible studies and investigate whether the programmed cell death 1 (PDCD-1) gene polymorphisms (PD 1.3 G/A, PD 1.5 C/T, and PD 1.9 C/T polymorphism) are correlated with ankylosing spondylitis risk (AS). Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease, and several genetic and environmental factors play an important role in the development and progression of AS. Significant associations between PDCD-1 gene polymorphisms (PD 1.3 G/A, PD 1.5 C/T or PD 1.9 C/T) and AS risk have been reported; however, some of these results are controversial. METHODS A systematic online search was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library to identify case-control studies investigating the relationship between PD 1.3 G/A, PD 1.5 C/T, and PD 1.9 C/T polymorphisms and the susceptibility of AS. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95 % confidence interval (CI; 95 %) was calculated to assess the associations, and subgroup meta-analyses were performed according to the ethnicity of the study populations. RESULTS Five studies involving 909 cases and 982 controls met the inclusion criteria after assessment by two reviewers. Overall, there were no significant associations between PD 1.3 G/A and PD 1.5 C/T polymorphisms and AS risk. With regard to PD 1.9 C/T polymorphism, a significant association was found under the allele contrast model (T vs. C: OR 1.74, 95 % CI 1.48-2.06, P < 0.001), heterozygote model (CT vs. CC: OR 2.43, 95 % CI 1.65-3.59, P < 0.001), homozygote model (TT vs. CC: OR 1.87, 95 % CI 1.30-2.71, P = 0.001), and dominant model (CT/TT vs. CC: OR 2.29, 95 % CI 1.65-3.18, P < 0.001). In the subgroup analysis of ethnicity, no significant associations were found between PD 1.3 G/A, PD 1.5 C/T polymorphisms, and AS risk in either Asian or Caucasian populations. However, our study suggested that PD 1.9 C/T polymorphism was significantly associated with AS in Asian populations (T vs. C: OR 1.72, 95 % CI 1.46-2.04, P < 0.001; CT vs. CC: OR 2.44, 95 % CI 1.56-3.82, P < 0.001; TT vs. CC: OR 1.88, 95 % CI 1.30-2.73, P = 0.001; and CT/TT vs. CC: OR 2.29, 95 % CI 1.58-3.32, P < 0.001) but not in Caucasian populations. CONCLUSION The PD 1.9 C/T polymorphism may be involved in susceptibility to AS, particular in Asian populations; however, no significant associations were found between PD 1.3 G/A, PD 1.5 C/T polymorphisms, and AS risk in either Asians or Caucasians.
