Abstract
This study aimed to explore the function of CLPTM1L in oral squamous cell carcinoma and mechanism of tumorigenesis. The expression of CLPTM1L was detected by immunohistochemistry. The localization in cells was detected by immunofluorescence. Cell invasion, proliferation, and migration were detected by transwell, CCK-8 and scratch-wound test. The possible characteristics of CLPTM1L were analysed in TCGA, GO, KEGG and String databases. IHC revealed that the expression of CLPTM1L in 92 cases of OSCC tissues was significantly higher (P < 0.01) than 29 cases of normal oral epithelium tissues. The expression of CLPTM1L was significantly higher in oral squamous cell carcinoma in TCGA database. CLPTM1L expression was not significantly correlated with the patients’ clinical parameters. High expression of CLPTM1L was associated with worse prognosis. Cox regression analysis demonstrated that the CLPTM1L expression was the significant risk factor. CLPTM1L was mainly localized in the perinuclear cytoplasm. The vitro studies revealed that the knockdown of CLPTM1L suppressed invasion, proliferation and migration. CLPTM1L related genes were enriched in protein processing in the endoplasmic reticulum, protein folding, endoplasmic reticulum formation, N-glycan biosynthesis, and protein hydroxylation. Highly expressed CLPTM1L may contribute to a poor prognosis and increase invasion, proliferation and migration of oral squamous cell carcinoma. CLPTM1L may play an important role in tumorgenesis and would be a valuable target gene for the treatment of oral squamous cell carcinoma.

Susceptibility loci for pancreatic cancer in the Brazilian population. BMC Med Genomics 2021; 14:111. [PMID: 33879152 PMCID: PMC8056496 DOI: 10.1186/s12920-021-00956-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/29/2020] [Accepted: 04/08/2021] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PA) is a very aggressive cancer and has one of the poorest prognoses. Usually, the diagnosis is late and resistant to conventional treatment. Environmental and genetic factors contribute to the etiology, such as tobacco and alcohol consumption, chronic pancreatitis, diabetes and obesity. Somatic mutation in pancreatic cancer cells are known and SNP profile by GWAS could access novel genetic risk factors for this disease in different population context. Here we describe a SNP panel for Brazilian pancreatic cancer, together with clinical and epidemiological data. Methods 78 pancreatic adenocarcinoma and 256 non-pancreatic cancer subjects had 25 SNPs genotyped by real-time PCR. Unconditional logistic regression methods were used to assess the main effects on PA risk, using allelic, co-dominant and dominant inheritance models. Results 9 SNPs were nominally associated with pancreatic adenocarcinoma risk, with 5 of the minor alleles conferring protective effect while 4 related as risk factor. In epidemiological and clinical data, tobacco smoking, diabetes and pancreatitis history were significantly related to pancreatic adenocarcinoma risk. Polygenic risk scores computed using the SNPs in the study showed strong associations with PA risk. Conclusion We could assess for the first time some SNPs related with PA in Brazilian populations, a result that could be used for genetic screening in risk population such as familial pancreatic cancer, smokers, alcohol users and diabetes patients.

Aging (Albany NY) 2020; 12:25256-25274. [PMID: 33226370 PMCID: PMC7803556 DOI: 10.18632/aging.104128] [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: 04/30/2020] [Accepted: 09/19/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
In this meta-analysis, we systematically investigated the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and pancreatic cancer (PC) risk. We searched PubMed, Network Science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), China Science and Technology Periodical Database (VIP), and Wanfang databases up to January 2020 for studies on PC risk-associated SNPs. We identified 45 case-control studies (36,360 PC patients and 54,752 non-cancer individuals) relating to investigations of 27 genes and 54 SNPs for this meta-analysis. Direct meta-analysis followed by network meta-analysis and Thakkinstian algorithm analysis showed that homozygous genetic models for CTLA-4 rs231775 (OR =0.326; 95% CI: 0.218-0.488) and VDR rs2228570 (OR = 1.976; 95% CI: 1.496-2.611) and additive gene model for TP53 rs9895829 (OR = 1.231; 95% CI: 1.143-1.326) were significantly associated with PC risk. TP53 rs9895829 was the most optimal SNP for diagnosing PC susceptibility with a false positive report probability < 0.2 at a stringent prior probability value of 0.00001. This systematic review and meta-analysis suggest that TP53 rs9895829, VDR rs2228570, and CTLA-4 rs231775 are significantly associated with PC risk. We also demonstrate that TP53 rs9895829 is a potential diagnostic biomarker for estimating PC risk.

Validation of genome-wide association study-identified single nucleotide polymorphisms in a case-control study of pancreatic cancer from Taiwan. J Biomed Sci 2020; 27:69. [PMID: 32456644 PMCID: PMC7251895 DOI: 10.1186/s12929-020-00664-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2019] [Accepted: 05/22/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Due to differences in genetic background, it is unclear whether the genetic loci identified by the previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of pancreatic cancer also play significant roles in the development of pancreatic cancer among the Taiwanese population. Methods This study aimed to validate the 25 pancreatic cancer GWAS-identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a case-control study (278 cases and 658 controls) of pancreatic cancer conducted in Taiwan. Statistical analyses were conducted to determine the associations between the GWAS-identified SNPs and pancreatic cancer risk. Gene-environment interaction analysis was conducted to evaluate the interactions between SNPs and environmental factors on pancreatic cancer risk. Results Among the 25 GWAS-identified SNPs, 7 (rs2816938 (~ 11 kb upstream of NR5A2), rs10094872 (~ 28 kb upstream of MYC), rs9581943 (200 bp upstream of PDX1) and 4 chromosome 13q22.1 SNPs: rs4885093, rs9573163, rs9543325, rs9573166) showed a statistically significant association with pancreatic cancer risk in the current study. Additional analyses showed two significant gene-environment interactions (between poor oral hygiene and NR5A2 rs2816938 and between obesity and PDX1 rs9581943) on the risk of pancreatic cancer. Conclusions The current study confirmed the associations between 7 of the 25 GWAS-identified SNPs and pancreatic risk among the Taiwanese population. Furthermore, pancreatic cancer was jointly influenced by lifestyle and medical factors, genetic polymorphisms, and gene-environment interaction. Additional GWAS is needed to determine the genetic polymorphisms that are more relevant to the pancreatic cancer cases occurring in Taiwan.

Abstract
Cleft lip and palate transmembrane 1-like (CLPTM1L) gene rs402710 (C > T) and rs401681 (C > T) polymorphisms have been widely studied for their potential relation to cancer risk, but studies have produced conflicting results. To systematically evaluate the association between these two polymorphisms and overall cancer risk, we conducted a comprehensive meta-analysis on all relevant articles found in the PubMed and EMBASE databases published prior to May 1, 2017. There were 26 articles with 28 studies, including 30,770 cases and 34,089 controls, for the rs402710 polymorphism and 38 articles with 48 studies, including 67,849 cases and 328,226 controls, for the rs401681 polymorphism. The pooled results indicated that both rs402710 and rs401681 polymorphisms are significantly associated with decreased overall cancer risk. In our stratification analysis, a significant association of the rs402710 polymorphism with lung and bladder cancers was identified among Asian and Caucasian populations in both hospital-based and population-based studies. The rs401681 polymorphism was significantly associated with a decreased risk of lung cancer, bladder cancer, and basal cell carcinoma in Asians and in hospital-based studies. CLPTM1L gene rs402710 and rs401681 polymorphisms thus have a protective association with various types of cancer, especially lung cancer among Asians.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and a pathway study of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) identified 14 significantly associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) along with another 7 promising loci in European, Japanese, and Chinese descents. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the potential association of these SNPs with PDAC risk in the Chinese population. METHODS In this Chinese population-based case-control study with 254 cases and 1200 controls, we tested 20 PDAC risk associated SNPs from previous GWAS and one SNP from a pathway-based study. RESULTS All 21 SNPs were polymorphic in the Chinese population. Twenty SNPs were included in the final analysis after the quality check (QC). Among these SNPs, three were significantly associated with PDAC risk after Bonferroni correction (P < 2.5E-03) including rs7779540 (at 7q36.2, P = 3.89E-06, OR = 2.59, 95%CI: 1.73-3.87), rs10919791 (at 1q32.1, P = 6.07E-05, OR = 1.52, 95%CI: 1.24-1.86) and rs401681 (at 5p15.33, P = 5.15E-04, OR = 1.42, 95%CI: 1.17-1.73). Rs2255280 (at 5p13.1, P = 8.16E-03, OR = 1.31, 95%CI: 1.07-1.6) showed significant association at the p < 0.05 level. The directions of effect of these SNPs were consistent with previous studies. CONCLUSION Four PDAC risk-associated SNPs identified in GWAS of various populations are associated with PDAC risk in the Chinese population. Information on PDAC risk-associated SNPs and their ORs may facilitate risk assessment of PDAC risk in the Chinese population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CLPTM1L (Cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1-like) has been previously shown to be overexpressed in lung cancer and is involved in regulating cisplatin sensitivity. In this study, we assessed the relationship between CLPTM1L expression and prognosis of lung cancer in patients and explored its role in regulating cell migration and invasion. METHODS Immunohistochemistry was used to examine CLPTM1L expression levels on a tissue microarray containing 73 sets of human lung cancer specimens with adjacent normal tissue. The correlation between CLPTM1L expression and patient survival was analysed by the Kaplan-Meier method. In addition, CLPTM1L-knockdown lung cells were used to investigate the effect of CLPTM1L on cell migration and invasion in vitro. RESULTS The results of immunohistochemical analysis showed that CLPTM1L was overexpressed in lung cancer tissues compared with adjacent normal tissues. Kaplan-Meier analyses revealed that patients with high CLPTM1L expression showed poorer survival than those with low CLPTM1L expression. In addition, in vitro studies revealed that the knockdown of CLPTM1L expression in 95-D lung cancer cells suppressed cell migration and invasion. Further, the loss of CLPTM1L resulted in decreased matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) expression in these cells. CONCLUSION Our data demonstrate that CLPTM1L overexpression can predict poor prognosis in patients with lung cancer and suggest that CLPTM1L might be associated with the regulation of cell migration and invasion.

Association of gastrointestinal gland cancer susceptibility loci with esophageal carcinoma among the Chinese Han population: a case-control study. Tumour Biol 2015; 37:1627-33.

Abstract
Esophageal carcinoma (EC) is a common malignancy worldwide. Previous studies indicated that gastrointestinal gland cancer and EC share some susceptibility loci. Our aim was to identify new single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with EC by investigating whether known gastrointestinal cancers susceptibility loci are found in EC patients. A Chinese Han population case-control study was conducted to assess SNP associations with EC risk. Twenty-six SNPs were selected from gastrointestinal cancer susceptibility loci, and 360 EC patients and 310 controls were genotyped for these SNPs using Sequenom MassARRAY technology. The association of SNP frequencies with EC was analyzed by chi-square tests, and genetic model analysis. After Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) p value screening, we excluded two SNPs. Based on chi-square tests, the minor alleles of rs13294589 (p = 0.046) and rs4924935 (p = 0.046) were correlated with reduced EC risk and rs4269383 (p = 0.010) and rs10953615 (p = 0.036) were correlated with increased EC risk. In the genetic model analyses, we found that the minor alleles "T" of rs401681, "A" of rs10088262, and "C" of rs4924935 may reduce the risk of EC. rs401681 has previously been reported to be associated with EC. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to report an association of the other five SNPs with EC. Our findings provide evidence for the genetic variants associated with susceptibility to EC in the Chinese Han population, which might be used as potential molecular markers for detecting susceptibility to EC in Chinese Han people.

Abstract
Telomere biology plays a critical and complex role in the initiation and progression of cancer. Several recent studies have provided evidence that rs401681 polymorphisms in intronic region of cleft lip and palate trans-membrane 1-like (CLPTM1L) gene sequence are associated with pancreatic cancer (PC) development, but a comprehensive synopsis is not available. We performed a meta-analysis of 6 case-control studies that included 8,253 pancreatic cancer cases and 37,646 case-free controls. We assessed the strength of the association, using odds ratios (ORs) with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs). Overall, this meta-analysis showed that rs401681 allele T was associated with a significantly increased PC risk (OR = 1.17, 95 % CI = 1.12-1.22, P heterpgeneity = 0.596 and I (2) = 0). Similarly, in the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, a significantly increased risk was found among Asians (OR = 1.15, 95 % CI = 1.07-1.24, P heterpgeneity = 0.297 and I (2) = 8.0 %) and among Caucasian (OR = 1.13, 95 % CI = 1.02-1.26, P heterpgeneity = 0.385 and I (2) = 0). No publication bias was found in the present study. This meta-analysis suggests that T allele of CLPTM1L-telomerase reverse transcriptase rs401681 polymorphism is associated with an increased PC risk, especially among Chinese. Further large and well-designed studies are needed to confirm this association.
