Association of rs944289, rs965513, and rs1443434 in TITF1/TITF2 with Risks of Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma and with Nodular Goiter in Northern Chinese Han Populations. Int J Endocrinol 2020; 2020:4539747. [PMID: 32104174 PMCID: PMC7036112 DOI: 10.1155/2020/4539747] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2019] [Revised: 12/25/2019] [Accepted: 12/30/2019] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE In this study, we aimed to investigate the associations of three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on TITF1/TITF2 (rs944289, rs965513, and rs1443434) with susceptibility to papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and with nodular goiter (NG) in northern Chinese Han populations. METHODS We performed a case-control study comprising 861 PTC patients, 562 NG patients, and 896 normal controls (NCs). One TITF1 SNP (rs944289) and two TITF2 SNPs (rs965513 and rs1443434) were genotyped. Departures from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) in the control group were evaluated using chi-square test. Associations of the SNPs with PTC and with NG were assessed by unconditional logistic regression using the online SNPStats program. Bonferroni correction was performed for multiple tests in genotype analyses. Data analysis was performed by SPSS24.0 unless otherwise specified. RESULTS For rs944289, T allele was associated with increased risks for both PTC (OR = 1.23, 95% CI: 1.08-1.41, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50, P=0.002) and NG (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.10-1.50. CONCLUSIONS There are associations of rs944289 and rs1443434 polymorphisms with PTC risk and association of rs944289 polymorphism with NG risk. Haplotypes T-G-G and T-G-T are risk haplotypes of PTC and NG, respectively.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Risk for developing papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), the most common endocrine malignancy, is thought to be mediated by lifestyle, environmental exposures and genetic factors. Recent progress in the genome-wide association studies of thyroid cancer leads to the identification of several genetic variants conferring risk to this malignancy across different ethnicities. We set out to elucidate the impact of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on PTC risk and to evaluate clinicopathological correlations of these genetic variants in the Kazakh population for the first time. METHODS Eight SNPs were genotyped in 485 patients with PTC and 1,008 healthy control Kazakh subjects. The association analysis and multivariable modeling of PTC risk by the genetic factors, supplemented with rigorous statistical validation, were performed. RESULT Five of the eight SNPs: rs965513 (FOXE1/PTCSC2, P = 1.3E-16), rs1867277 (FOXE1 5'UTR, P = 7.5E-06), rs2439302 (NRG1 intron 1, P = 4.0E-05), rs944289 (PTCSC3/NKX2-1, P = 4.5E-06) and rs10136427 (BATF upstream, P = 9.8E-03) were significantly associated with PTC. rs966423 (DIRC3, P = 0.07) showed a suggestive association. rs7267944 (DHX35) was associated with PTC risk in males (P = 0.02), rs1867277 (FOXE1) conferred the higher risk in subjects older than 55 years (P = 7.0E-05), and rs6983267 (POU5F1B/CCAT2) was associated with pT3-T4 tumors (P = 0.01). The contribution of genetic component (unidirectional independent effects of rs965513, rs944289, rs2439302 and rs10136427 adjusted for age and sex) to PTC risk in the analyzed series was estimated to be 30-40%. CONCLUSION Genetic factors analyzed in the present work display significant association signals with PTC either on the whole group analysis or in particular clinicopathological groups and account for about one-third of the risk for PTC in the Kazakh population.

Abstract
Identifying individual characteristics is a crucial issue in personalized genome research. To effectively identify sample-specific characteristics, we propose a novel strategy called robust sample-specific stability selection. Although stability selection shows effective feature selection results and has attractive theoretical property (i.e., per-family error rate control), the method's results are sensitive to the value of the regularization parameter because the method performs feature selection based only on the particular parameter value that maximizes the selection probability. To resolve this issue, we propose robust stability selection and show that our method provides an effective theoretical property (i.e., effective per-family error rate control). We also propose a sample-specific random lasso based on the kernel-based L1-type regularization and weighted random sampling. The proposed robust sample-specific stability selection estimates the selection probabilities of variables using the sample-specific random lasso and then selects variables based on robust stability selection. Our method controls the effect of samples on sample-specific analysis by the two-stage strategy (i.e., the weighted random sampling and the kernel-based L1-type approach in the random lasso), and thus we can effectively perform sample-specific analysis without disturbances of samples having characteristics different from those of the target sample. We observe from the numerical studies that our strategies can effectively perform sample-specific analysis and provide biologically reliable results in gene selection.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several association analyses and linkage researches indicated that inherited genetic variations effectively influence differentiated thyroid carcinogenesis. METHODS The results from 15 published studies on differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) were combined. The genetic model included rs965513, rs944289 and rs1867277. Meta-analyses were performed and cochran's χ2 based Q-statistic and I2 test were performed to assess heterogeneity using STATA software. RESULTS Significant results were noticed for rs965513(Odds Ratio(OR) = 1.162(1.117, 1.208)), rs944289(OR = 1.082(1.035, 1.131)) and rs1867277(OR = 1.415(1.324, 1.512)). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, rs965513 polymorphism conferred that risk of Caucasians (OR = 1.168(1.122, 1.215)) was more than that of East Asians of 1.35 (OR = 0.897(0.680, 1.193)). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis revealed that common variations of FOXE1 (rs965513, rs944289 and rs1867277) were risk factors associated with increased DTC susceptibility.

Abstract
We examined the effects of race/ethnicity and neighborhood, a proxy of socioeconomic status, on cancer incidence in New York City neighborhoods: East Harlem (EH), Central Harlem (CH), and Upper East Side (UES). In this ecological study, Community Health Survey data (2002-2006) and New York State Cancer Registry incidence data (2007-2011) were stratified by sex, age, race/ethnicity, and neighborhood. Logistic regression models were fitted to each cancer incidence rate with race/ethnicity, neighborhood, and Community Health Survey-derived risk factors as predictor variables. Neighborhood was significantly associated with all cancers and 14 out of 25 major cancers. EH and CH residence conferred a higher risk of all cancers compared with UES (OR=1.34, 95% CI 1.07-1.68; and OR=1.39, 95% CI 1.12-1.72, respectively). The prevalence of diabetes and tobacco smoking were the largest contributors toward high cancer rates. Despite juxtaposition and similar proximity to medical centers, cancer incidence disparities persist among EH, CH, and UES neighborhoods. Targeted, neighborhood-specific outreach may aid in reducing cancer incidence rates.

Abstract
Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid cancer. With the rapid development of genome-wide association studies (GWAS), many genome variants associated with susceptibility to PTC have been identified, including the single nucleotide polymorphism rs965513 (9q22.33) near FOXE1. To evaluate the association between rs965513 and PTC in different ethnicities and countries, we conducted a meta-analysis using relatively large-scale samples from 23 studies (N = 163,136; 20,736 cases and 142,400 controls) by searching the PubMed and Google Scholar databases. Significant heterogeneity caused by different populations among the selected studies was observed. The A allele of rs965513 polymorphism was shown to be highly associated with risk of thyroid cancer, with odds ratios of 1.58 (95% CI 1.32–1.90) in all populations, 1.65 (95% CI 1.31–2.07)) in Caucasian populations and 1.49 in Asian populations. Compared to the dominant and recessive models, we observed the highest odds ratio (OR = 2.80, 95% CI 2.12–3.69) in the homozygous model. These results revealed that the rs965513 polymorphism is a risk factor for thyroid cancer

Abstract
Thyroid cancer is the most common cancer in Korea. Several susceptibility loci of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) were identified by previous genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in Europeans only. Here we conducted a GWAS and a replication study in Koreans using a total of 1,085 DTC cases and 8,884 controls, and validated these results using expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis and clinical phenotypes. The most robust associations were observed in the NRG1 gene (rs6996585, P=1.08 × 10-10) and this SNP was also associated with NRG1 expression in thyroid tissues. In addition, we confirmed three previously reported loci (FOXE1, NKX2-1 and DIRC3) and identified seven novel susceptibility loci (VAV3, PCNXL2, INSR, MRSB3, FHIT, SEPT11 and SLC24A6) associated with DTC. Furthermore, we identified specific variants of DTC that have different effects according to cancer type or ethnicity. Our findings provide deeper insight into the genetic contribution to thyroid cancer in different populations.

Abstract
Background: The effects of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and thyroid hormones on the development of human papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) remain poorly understood.Methods: The study population consisted of 741 (341 women, 400 men) histologically confirmed PTC cases and 741 matched controls with prediagnostic serum samples stored in the Department of Defense Serum Repository. Concentrations of TSH, total T3, total T4, and free T4 were measured in serum samples. Conditional logistic regression models were used to calculate ORs and 95% confidence intervals (CI).Results: The median time between blood draw and PTC diagnosis was 1,454 days. Compared with the middle tertile of TSH levels within the normal range, serum TSH levels below the normal range were associated with an elevated risk of PTC among women (OR, 3.74; 95% CI, 1.53-9.19) but not men. TSH levels above the normal range were associated with an increased risk of PTC among men (OR, 1.96; 95% CI, 1.04-3.66) but not women. The risk of PTC decreased with increasing TSH levels within the normal range among both men and women (Ptrend = 0.0005 and 0.041, respectively).Conclusions: We found a significantly increased risk of PTC associated with TSH levels below the normal range among women and with TSH levels above the normal range among men. An inverse association between PTC and TSH levels within the normal range was observed among both men and women.Impact: These results could have significant clinical implications for physicians who are managing patients with abnormal thyroid functions and those with thyroidectomy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several functional single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at the FOXE1 locus on chromosome 9q22.33 have been associated with the risk for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). This study set out to elucidate whether their effects are independent, using genotyping results in populations of Asian and European descent. METHODS SNPs rs965513 and rs1867277 and a polymorphic region determining the length of the FOXE1 polyalanine (poly-Ala) tract were genotyped in 501 patients with PTC and 748 healthy individuals from Japan, and in 660 patients and 820 population controls from Belarus. Functional analysis of transactivation activities of FOXE1 isoforms with varying number of alanine repeats was performed by a Dual-Luciferase® Assay. RESULTS All three polymorphisms were significantly associated with PTC in both populations on univariate analysis. However, conditional analysis revealed independent effects of rs965513 and rs1867277 SNPs but not of the FOXE1 poly-Ala polymorphism. The independent effect of the lead rs965513 SNP was observed in both populations, while that of rs1867277 was only identified in the Japanese population, in which linkage disequilibrium between the three polymorphisms is markedly weaker. Despite the strong decrease in transcriptional activity with increasing FOXE1 poly-Ala tract length, no difference in transactivation potential of the FOXE1 poly-Ala isoforms could be seen after adjustment for the minimal promoter activity in the reporter vectors. Plasmids encoding FOXE1 isoforms of increasing poly-Ala tract length were also found to produce less FOXE1 protein after cell transfection. CONCLUSIONS The functional variants rs965513 and rs1867277 independently contribute to genetic predisposition to PTC, while a contributing role of the FOXE1 poly-Ala polymorphism could not be confirmed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is low in Cuba, and the contribution of dietary factors to DTC in this population has not been investigated so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between dietary iodine intake and DTC with regard to the interaction with environmental factors or some common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), based on a case-control study carried out in Cuba. METHODS A total of 203 cases and 212 controls from the general population were interviewed face-to-face using the dietary intake questionnaire and the photo booklet from the E3N cohort. A specific food composition table was constructed for this study. For each parameter studied, the odds ratio (OR) was stratified on age group and sex, and further adjusted for dietary energy, smoking status, ethnic group, level of education, number of pregnancies, and body surface area. RESULTS The risk of DTC was significantly reduced with increasing consumption of fish (p = 0.04), but no association between total dietary iodine intake and DTC risk was evident (p = 0.7). This lack of significant association was true whatever the age, the smoking status, the dietary selenium intake, and the ethnicity (p > 0.05). DTC risk was positively and strongly associated with the number of copies in the minor allele (A) for SNP rs965513 near FOXE1 among people who consumed less iodine than the median (p = 0.005). CONCLUSION Overall, the majority of the studied population had an optimal dietary iodine intake. DTC risk was inversely associated with high fish consumption. Furthermore, DTC risk was positively associated with the number of copies in the minor allele (A) of rs965513 among people who consumed less iodine than the median. Because these findings are based on post-diagnostic measures, studies with pre-diagnostic dietary iodine are needed for confirmation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Foxp3 plays important roles in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases as well as human malignancies. This study aimed to investigate the association between Foxp3 gene polymorphisms and the susceptibility to differentiated thyroid cancers (DTC). METHODS Genotyping was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) in 350 DTC patients and 306 healthy controls. FOXP3 relative expression was measured by real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR). RESULTS AA/AC genotype of Foxp3-rs3761548 was associated with a higher risk of DTC. The frequency of Foxp3-rs2280883 CC/CT genotype was lower in DTC patients. Besides, the AA/AC genotype of rs3761548 was more frequent in female DTC than male DTC. The association between two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and clinical characteristics of DTC was further analyzed. We found that rs3761548 AA/AC genotype was more frequent in severe DTC patients (tumor diameter >1 cm) compared with the relative tender DTC patients (tumor diameter <1 cm). On the contrast, the frequency of rs2280883 CC/CT genotype was lower in severe DTC patients. In addition, the Foxp3 relative expression in DTC with AA/AC genotype of rs3761548 was higher than that of DTC with CC genotype. CONCLUSION Our findings suggested that Foxp3 polymorphisms were associated with the risk of DTC in Chinese Han population.

Abstract
Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), one of the most common malignant thyroid tumors, exits widely in the thyroid of adolescents. Thyroid transcription factor 1 (TTF1) and 2 (TTF2) were thyroid-specific transcription factors, and regulated expression of the thyroid-specific genes. Hence, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the correlation between gene variants of TTF1 and TTF2 and the risk of PTC in Chinese population.Two tagging single-nucleotide polymorphisms (tSNPs) on TTF1 and TTF2 were selected and genotyped by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight (MALDITOF) mass spectrometry in a hospital-based case-control study of 297 PTC patients and 594 healthy controls. Furthermore, a meta-analysis of the association between TTF1 and TTF2 and PTC risk was also performed.We found that the rs944289 on the TTF1 was significantly associated with increased PTC risk (TT vs CC, OR = 1.53, 95% CI = 1.05-2.24; CT + TT vs TT, OR = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.00-1.79; T vs C, OR = 1.27, 95% CI = 1.04-1.55). Similarly, the rs965513 on the TTF2 can also elevate the risk of PTC significantly (GA vs GG, OR = 1.67, 95% CI = 1.07-2.59; AA+GA vs AA, OR = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.09-1.82; A vs G, OR = 1.29, 95% CI = 1.05-1.59). Furthermore, results of stratified analysis revealed that the risk effects of rs944289 and rs965513 were more overpowering in the subgroups of patients with MNG, as well as subjects without metastasis. Results of meta-analysis from the previous study and our new data indicated that variants of rs944289 and rs965513 might be the genetic susceptible factors both in Asians and Caucasians.We get the conclusion that mutations of TTF1 and TTF2 are significantly associated with an increasing risk of PTC in Chinese. However, more detailed investigations and further large-scale studies on genetic functions to provide more conclusive and accurate evidence are required in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The incidence of differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) in Cuba is low and the contribution of host genetic factors to DTC in this population has not been investigated so far. Our goal was to assess the role of known risk polymorphisms in DTC cases living in Havana. We genotyped five polymorphisms located at the DTC susceptibility loci on chromosome 14q13.3 near NK2 homeobox 1 (NKX2-1), on chromosome 9q22.33 near Forkhead factor E1 (FOXE1) and within the DNA repair gene Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) in 203 cases and 212 age- and sex- matched controls. Potential interactions between these polymorphisms and other DTC risk factors such as body surface area, body mass index, size, ethnicity, and, for women, the parity were also examined. RESULTS Significant association with DTC risk was found for rs944289 near NKX2-1 (OR per A allele = 1.6, 95% CI: 1.2-2.1), and three polymorphisms near or within FOXE1, namely rs965513 (OR per A allele = 1.7, 95% CI: 1.2-2.3), rs1867277 in the promoter region of the gene (OR per A allele = 1.5, 95% CI: 1.1-1.9) and the poly-alanine tract expansion polymorphism rs71369530 (OR per Long Allele = 1.8, 95% CI: 1.3-2.5), only the 2 latter remaining significant when correcting for multiple tests. Overall, no association between DTC and the coding SNP D1853N (rs1801516) in ATM (OR per A Allele = 1.1, 95% CI: 0.7-1.7) was seen. Nevertheless women who had 2 or more pregnancies had a 3.5-fold increase in risk of DTC if they carried the A allele (OR 3.5, 95% CI: 3.2-9.8) as compared to 0.8 (OR 0.8, 95% CI: 0.4-1.6) in those who had fewer than 2. CONCLUSIONS We confirmed in the Cuban population the role of the loci previously associated with DTC susceptibility in European and Japanese populations through genome-wide association studies. Our results on ATM and the number of pregnancies raise interesting questions on the mechanisms by which oestrogens, or other hormones, alter the DNA damage response and DNA repair through the regulation of key effector proteins such as ATM. Due to the small size of our study and to multiple tests, all these results warrant further investigation.

Abstract
Nonmedullary thyroid cancer (NMTC) can be sporadic or can occur as a component cancer as part of several well-described hereditary cancer syndromes. NMTC, particularly papillary thyroid cancer, also can occur by itself in families and is often termed familial NMTC or familial papillary thyroid cancer. The occurrence of NMTC in families, along with extensive population-based evidence from patients with sporadic thyroid cancer, together suggest that NMTC has a strong genetic component, only a small proportion of which has been characterized to date. Advances in genetic and genomic technology have rapidly advanced our understanding of the complex nature of NMTC susceptibility, although much remains to be explained. Herein, we describe the current state of knowledge, starting with a brief review of hereditary syndromic causes and moving on to describe recent data using modern genomic approaches to identifying genes involved in the predisposition to NMTC.
