Abstract
Chemoresistance leads to treatment failure, which can arise through different mechanisms including patients' characteristics. Searching for genetic profiles as a predictor for drug response and toxicity has been extensively studied in pharmacogenomics, thus contributing to personalized medicine and providing alternative treatments. Numerous studies have demonstrated significant evidence of association between genetic polymorphisms and response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in breast cancer. In this review, we explored the potential impact of genetic polymorphisms in NAC primary resistance through selecting a specific clinical profile. The genetic variability within pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, DNA synthesis and repair, and oncogenic signaling pathways genes could be predictive or prognostic markers for NAC resistance. The clinical implication of these results can help provide individualized treatment plans in the early stages of breast cancer treatment. Further studies are needed to determine the genetic hosts of primary chemoresistance mechanisms in order to further emphasize the implementation of genotypic approaches in personalized medicine.

Abstract
Benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P), one typical environmental pollutant, the toxicity mechanisms, and potential prevention remain perplexing. Available evidence suggests cytochrome P450 1A1 (CYP1A1) and glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) metabolize B[a]P, resulting in metabolic activation and detoxification of B[a]P. This study aimed to reveal the impact of B[a]P exposure on trans-7,8-diol-anti-9,10-epoxide DNA (BPDE-DNA) adduct formation, level of CYP1A1, glutathione S-transferase pi (GSTP1) and glutathione S-transferase mu1 (GSTM1) mRNA, protein and DNA methylation in mice, and the potential prevention of aspirin (ASP). This study firstly determined the BPDE-DNA adduct formation in an acute toxicity test of a large dose in mice induced by B[a]P, which subsequently detected CYP1A1, GSTP1, and GSTM1 at levels of mRNA, protein, and DNA methylation in the organs of mice in a subacute toxicity test at appropriate doses and the potential prevention of ASP, using the methods of real-time quantitative PCR (QPCR), western blotting, and real-time methylation-specific PCR (MSP), respectively. The results verified that B[a]P induced the formation of BPDE-DNA adduct in all the organs of mice in an acute toxicity test, and the order of concentration of which was lung > kidney > liver > brain. In a subacute toxicity test, following B[a]P treatment, mice showed a dose-dependent slowdown in body weight gain and abnormalities in behavioral and cognitive function and which were alleviated by ASP co-treatment. Compared to the controls, following B[a]P treatment, CYP1A1 was significantly induced in all organs in mice at mRNA level (P < 0.05), was suppressed in the lung and cerebrum of mice at protein level, and inhibited at DNA methylation level in the liver, lung, and cerebrum, whereas GSTP1 and GSTM1 at mRNA, protein, and DNA methylation levels showed organ-specific changes in mice following B[a]P treatment, which was generally alleviated by ASP intervention. In conclusion, B[a]P induced BPDE-DNA adduct formation in all organs in mice and altered the mRNA, protein, and DNA methylation levels in CYP1A1, GSTP1, and GSTM1 in an organ-dependent pattern, which could be related to the organ toxicity and mechanism of B[a]P. ASP intervention may be an effective measure to prevent B[a]P toxicity. The findings provide scientific evidence for further study on the organ toxicity and mechanisms of B[a]P.

Abstract
Thyroid cancer is the most common malignant tumor of the endocrine system, and its incidence is increasing worldwide each year. This study aimed to explore the association between XRCC1, GSTM1, and GSTT1 polymorphisms in the model of thyroid cancer. The experiment was conducted by searching PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science, with the last search performed in March 2022. A total of 12 studies were included in this meta-analysis, with sample sizes ranging from 211 to 1124. The proportion of XRCC1 polymorphisms (rs25489, GG) in thyroid cancer was slightly lower than that of the normal control group, but the difference was not statistically significant (Mean difference=1.13, 95% CI: 0.99-1.28, p=0.08). The proportion of XRCC1 polymorphisms (rs25489, GA) in thyroid cancer was significantly lower than that of the normal control group (Mean difference=1.32, 95% CI: 1.16-1.52, p<0.00001). The proportion of XRCC1 polymorphisms (rs25489, AA) in thyroid cancer was slightly lower than that of the normal control group, but again, the difference was not statistically significant (Mean difference=0.78, 95% CI: 0.61-1.01, p=0.06). Similarly, the proportion of XRCC1 polymorphisms (rs25487, GG) and (rs25487, GA) in thyroid cancer was lower than that of the normal control group, but the differences were not statistically significant (p=0.22 and p=0.49, respectively). In conclusion, this study found that the proportion of XRCC1 polymorphisms (rs25489, AA) in thyroid cancer was lower than that of the normal control group.

Abstract
Given the role of pharmacogenomics in the large variability observed in drug efficacy/safety, an assessment about the pharmacogenomic profile of patients prior to drug prescription or dose adjustment is paramount to improve adherence to treatment and prevent adverse drug reaction events. A population commonly underrepresented in pharmacogenomic studies is the Native American populations, which have a unique genetic profile due to a long process of geographic isolation and other genetic and evolutionary processes. Here, we describe the pharmacogenetic variability of Native American populations regarding 160 pharmacogenes involved in absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion processes and biological pathways of different therapies. Data were obtained through complete exome sequencing of individuals from 12 different Amerindian groups of the Brazilian Amazon. The study reports a total of 3311 variants; of this, 167 are exclusive to Amerindian populations, and 1183 are located in coding regions. Among these new variants, we found non-synonymous coding variants in the DPYD and the IFNL4 genes and variants with high allelic frequencies in intronic regions of the MTHFR, TYMS, GSTT1, and CYP2D6 genes. Additionally, 332 variants with either high or moderate (disruptive or non-disruptive impact in protein effectiveness, respectively) significance were found with a minimum of 1% frequency in the Amazonian Amerindian population. The data reported here serve as scientific basis for future design of specific treatment protocols for Amazonian Amerindian populations as well as for populations admixed with them, such as the Northern Brazilian population.

Abstract
The study was conducted to evaluate the frequency of polymorphisms in GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes in patients with breast cancer compared with individuals without history of cancer, and the association of these polymorphisms with clinical/epidemiological parameters.There were evaluated 752 women (219 patients and 533 controls). Molecular analysis was performed by the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). Statistical analysis was used multiple logistic regression and descriptive statistics.Age ≥50 years (OR =3.22, 95% CI =2.30 - 4.51, p <0.001) and alcohol consumption (OR =1.60, 95% CI =1.13 - 2.27, p = 0.008) were associated to the development of breast cancer, while smoking and null genotypes GSTM1 and GSTT1 presented no association. GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms presented no relationship with the clinical and histopathological parameters or molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Ninety-two percent of tumors were invasive ductal, 66% were grade II, 65% were larger than 2 cm, the stages II (35.3%) and III (31.2%) were the most prevalent, and 47.7% were molecular subtype luminal B.Individuals aged ≥50 years and alcohol consumers have more chance to developing breast cancer. GSTM1 and GSTT1 polymorphisms are not associated to the risk of breast cancer.

Abstract
Background: Breast cancer (BC) occurs in the epithelial tissues of the breast gland, which is the most common cancer in women. This study is implemented to construct a risk score system for BC. Methods: The methylation data of BC from The Cancer Genome Atlas database (the training set) and GSE37754 from Gene Expression Omnibus database (the validation set) were downloaded. The differentially methylated RNAs (DMRs) between BC and normal samples were screened by limma package, and the correlations between the expression levels and methylation levels of the DMRs were analyzed to calculate their Pearson correlation coefficients (PCCs) using the cor.test function. To build the risk score system, the optimal RNAs were identified by penalized package. Subsequently, the nomogram survival model was established using the rms package. The lncRNA-mRNA comethylation network was constructed by Cytoscape software, and then enrichment analysis was performed using DAVID tool. Results: From the 1170 DMRs between BC and normal samples, 800 DMRs with significant negative PCCs were screened. For building the risk score system, the 15 optimal RNAs were selected. Afterward, the nomogram survival model based on four independent clinical prognostic factors (including age, radiation therapy, tumor recurrence, and RS model status) was constructed. In the comethylation network, the long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) PRNT was comethylated with FAM19A5 and RBM24. For the mRNAs in the comethylation network, angiogenesis and pathways in cancer were enriched. Conclusion: The risk score system and the nomogram survival model might be of great importance for the prognosis prediction of BC patients.

Abstract
Hereditary breast cancer accounts for 5-10% of all breast cancer cases. So far, known genetic risk factors account for only 50% of the breast cancer genetic component and almost a quarter of hereditary cases are carriers of pathogenic mutations in BRCA1/2 genes. Hence, the genetic basis for a significant fraction of familial cases remains unsolved. This missing heritability may be explained in part by Copy Number Variations (CNVs). We herein aimed to evaluate the contribution of CNVs to hereditary breast cancer in Tunisia. Whole exome sequencing was performed for 9 BRCA negative cases with a strong family history of breast cancer and 10 matched controls. CNVs were called using the ExomeDepth R-package and investigated by pathway analysis and web-based bioinformatic tools. Overall, 483 CNVs have been identified in breast cancer patients. Rare CNVs affecting cancer genes were detected, of special interest were those disrupting APC2, POU5F1, DOCK8, KANSL1, TMTC3 and the mismatch repair gene PMS2. In addition, common CNVs known to be associated with breast cancer risk have also been identified including CNVs on APOBECA/B, UGT2B17 and GSTT1 genes. Whereas those disrupting SULT1A1 and UGT2B15 seem to correlate with good clinical response to tamoxifen. Our study revealed new insights regarding CNVs and breast cancer risk in the Tunisian population. These findings suggest that rare and common CNVs may contribute to disease susceptibility. Those affecting mismatch repair genes are of interest and require additional attention since it may help to select candidates for immunotherapy leading to better outcomes.

Abstract
Variation in drug disposition genes might contribute to susceptibility to toxicities and interindividual differences in clinical management on chemotherapy for epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). This study was designed to explore the association of GST and ABCB1 genetic variation with hematologic and neurologic toxicity, changes in chemotherapy, and disease prognosis in Brazilian women with EOC. A total of 112 women with a confirmed histological diagnosis of EOC treated with carboplatin/paclitaxel were enrolled (2014–2019). The samples were analyzed by multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the deletion of GSTM1 and GSTT1 genes. GSTP1 (c.313A>G/rs1695) and ABCB1 (c.1236C>T/rs1128503; c.3435C>T/rs1045642; c.2677G>T>A/rs2032582) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were detected by real‐time PCR. Subjects with the GSTP1 c.313A>G had reduced risk of anemia (odds ratio (OR): 0.17, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.04–0.69, P = 0.01, dominant model) and for thrombocytopenia (OR: 0.27, 95% CI: 0.12–0.64, P < 0.01; OR 0.18, 95% CI 0.03–0.85, P = 0.03, either dominant or recessive model), respectively. The GSTP1 c.313A>G AG genotype was associated with a lower risk of dose delay (OR: 0.35, 95% CI: 0.13–0.90, P = 0.03). The ABCB1 c.1236C>T was associated with increased risk of thrombocytopenia (OR: 0.15, 95% CI: 0.03–0.82, P = 0.03), whereas ABCB1 c.3435C>T had increased risk of grade 2 and 3 neurotoxicity (OR: 3.61, 95% CI: 1.08–121.01, P = 0.03) in recessive model (CC + CT vs. TT). This study suggests that GSTP1 c.313A>G, ABCB1 c.1236C>T, and c.3435C>T SNP detection is a potential predictor of hematological toxicity and neurotoxicity and could help predict the clinical management of women with EOC.

Abstract
The glutathione S-transferase (GST) genes encode enzymes that mediate the detoxification of xenobiotics by catalyzing the conjugation of glutathione (GSH) to xenobiotic substrates. The aim of the current study is to investigate the association between GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) among Sudanese patients. Patients with CML (n = 115) were recruited to the study from the Radiation and Isotope Centre Khartoum (RICK)-Sudan. Healthy individuals (n = 104) were included as controls. Genotyping of GSTT1 and GSTM1 polymorphisms was performed using multiplex PCR. Null deletions in the GSTT1 and GSTM1 genes are common in the Sudanese population (control group), with frequencies of 33.9% and 38.2%, respectively. The frequencies of GSTT1 (OR: 3.25, 95% CI: 1.87-5.65, p < 0.001) and GSTM1 (OR: 2.14, 95% CI: 1.25-3.67, p < 0.005) null genotypes were significantly higher in CML patients vs. controls. The distribution of GSTT1 and GSTM1 null polymorphisms was not different between male and female (p > 0.01) and young and old CML patients (p > 0.05). Hematological parameters were not affected by null polymorphisms in the patient group (p > 0.05). In addition, the frequency of GSTM1 null polymorphism was lower in advanced-phase CML patients compared to chronic-phase patients (p < 0.05). The GSTT1 and GSTM1 null polymorphisms are associated with CML among Sudanese patients, independently of their age and gender.

Abstract
Influence of Glutathione S-transferase Mu1 (GSTM1) has long been studied in breast cancer and GSTM1 null genotype was correlated with breast cancer risk. Nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor-2 (NRF2) is a transcription factor that forms a complex with Kelch-like ECH-associated protein-1 (KEAP1). Recent studies have demonstrated that expression of these proteins is deregulated in several malignancies. Thus, in the present study we aim to distinguish GSTM1 heterozygous from wild type genotype in breast cancer patients and evaluate the presence and clinical significance of NRF2 and KEAP1 polymorphisms, alone or in association, with breast cancer prognosis, in cases confirmed to have GSTM1-present genotype. Study population consisted in 52 patients with breast cancer. Genomic DNA was extracted, GSTM1 was genotyped through multiplex PCR and gene dose was evaluated through real-time PCR. All cases were sequenced, through Sanger sequencing, for specific regions of NRF2 and KEAP1. Genotyping and clinicopathological data were correlated and statistical analysis was performed. GSTM1 wild type was identified in 1 case and 26 cases were identified as heterozygous, these data were correlated with Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 (HER2) status (p value = 0.017). We also verified that most cancers diagnosed at younger ages had the presence of KEAP1 and/or NRF2 polymorphisms. The association of GSTM1 heterozygous genotype with rs1048290 and rs35652124 seems to be associated with HER2+ (p < 0.05). Our results suggest that GSTM1 * 1/0 genotype and the cumulative presence of at least one allele mutated in KEAP1 and/or NRF2 polymorphisms might be associated with worse prognosis for breast cancer patients.

Abstract
The use of DDT (1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl) ethane) in some countries, although regulated, is contributing to an increased worldwide risk of exposure to this organochlorine pesticide or its derivative p,p'-DDE [1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl) ethylene]. Many studies have associated p,p'-DDE exposure to type 2 diabetes, obesity and alterations of the reproductive system, but their molecular mechanisms of toxicity remain poorly understood. We have addressed this issue by using commercial microarrays based on probes for the entire Mus musculus genome to determine the hepatic transcriptional signatures of p,p'-DDE in the phylogenetically close mouse species Mus spretus. High-stringency hybridization conditions and analysis assured reliable results, which were also verified, in part, by qRT-PCR, immunoblotting and/or enzymatic activity. Our data linked 198 deregulated genes to mitochondrial dysfunction and perturbations of central signaling pathways (kinases, lipids, and retinoic acid) leading to enhanced lipogenesis and aerobic glycolysis, inflammation, cell proliferation and testosterone catabolism and excretion. Alterations of transcript levels of genes encoding enzymes involved in testosterone catabolism and excretion would explain the relationships established between p,p´-DDE exposure and reproductive disorders, obesity and diabetes. Further studies will help to fully understand the molecular basis of p,p´-DDE molecular toxicity in liver and reproductive organs, to identify effective exposure biomarkers and perhaps to design efficient p,p'-DDE exposure counteractive strategies.

Abstract
Glutathione transferases (GSTs, EC 2.5.1.18) are a widespread family of enzymes that play a central role in the detoxification, metabolism, and transport or sequestration of endogenous or xenobiotic compounds. During the last two decades, delineation of the important structural and catalytic features of GSTs has laid the groundwork for engineering GSTs, involving both rational and random approaches, aiming to create new variants with new or altered properties. These approaches have expanded the usefulness of native GSTs, not only for understanding the fundamentals of molecular detoxification mechanisms, but also for the development medical, analytical, environmental, and agricultural applications. This review article attempts to summarize successful examples and current developments on GST engineering, highlighting in parallel the recent knowledge gained on their phylogenetic relationships, structural/catalytic features, and biotechnological applications.

Abstract
PURPOSE Various genetic variants have been reported to be linked to an increased risk of meningioma. However, no confirmed conclusion has been obtained. The purpose of the study was to investigate potential meningioma-associated gene polymorphisms, based on published evidence. MATERIALS AND METHODS An updated meta-analysis was performed in September 2016. After electronic database searching and study screening, we selected eligible case-control studies and extracted data for meta-analysis, using Mantel-Haenszel statistics. P-values, pooled odds ratios (ORs), and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. RESULTS We finally selected eight genes with ten polymorphisms: MLLT10 rs12770228, CASP8 rs1045485, XRCC1 rs1799782, rs25487, MTHFR rs1801133, rs1801131, MTRR rs1801394, MTR rs1805087, GSTM1 null/present, and GSTT1 null/present. Results of meta-analyses showed that there was increased meningioma risk in case groups under all models of MLLT10 rs12770228 (all OR >1, P<0.001), compared with control groups. Similar results were observed under the allele, homozygote, dominant, and recessive models of MTRR rs1801394 (all OR >1, P<0.05), and the heterozygote and dominant models of MTHFR rs1801131 in the Caucasian population (all OR >1, P<0.05). However, no significantly increased meningioma risks were observed for CASP8 rs1045485, XRCC1 rs25487, rs1799782, MTHFR rs1801133, MTR rs1805087, or GSTM1/GSTT1 null mutations. CONCLUSION Our updated meta-analysis provided statistical evidence for the role of MLLT10 rs12770228, MTRR rs1801394, and MTHFR rs1801131 in increased susceptibility to meningioma.

Abstract
Background The aim of the study was to explore the prognostic impact of different abnormal blood tests and the tumor marker CA 15-3 as well as established parameters such as disease extent and receptor status in patients with bone metastases from breast cancer who received palliative radiotherapy in addition to contemporary systemic treatment. Methods This was a retrospective uni- and multivariate analysis of 118 female patients treated in the time period from 2007 to 2014 (median follow-up 28 months). Results The median age was 61 years and the median time interval from the initial diagnosis of breast cancer was 57 months (median time interval from metastatic disease to radiotherapy was 7 months). Only 16% of patients had normal serum CA 15-3. HER2 receptor status correlated with CA 15-3. The median survival was 17.6 months (lowest CA 15-3 quartile), 14.7 months (intermediate), and 6.9 months (highest quartile) (P = 0.002). However, multivariate analysis showed that survival was influenced by extent of extra-skeletal metastases, pleural metastases/effusion, lung metastases, estrogen receptor status, serum C-reactive protein, and anemia with need for blood transfusion (all P < 0.05) rather than CA 15-3. Conclusions Survival was highly variable. The tumor marker CA 15-3 did not provide independent prognostic information. Nevertheless, the results of simple blood tests contributed to the multivariate prognostic model.
