[PMID: 37916104 PMCID: PMC10616328 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e21111] [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: 05/22/2023] [Revised: 10/15/2023] [Accepted: 10/16/2023] [Indexed: 11/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective The X-ray repair cross complementing group 1 (XRCC1) gene is involved in DNA repair. Defects in DNA repair may lead to head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs). Several researches have focused on relationship between XRCC1 Arg399Gln genetic polymorphism with HNSCC's prognosis with conflicting results. So, the aim of the present meta-analysis was evaluation of relationship between XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism with HNSCC's prognosis. Methods Published articles up to July 2022 were systematically searched through international databases like PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, etc. I2 test was applied to assess the heterogeneity. Data were analyzed using random effects model. Funnel plots and Egger test were applied for assessing publication biases. The hazard ratios (HRs) and 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for evaluation of relationship between the polymorphism with HNSCC's prognosis. Results Fifteen articles were included for the systematic review. Six of those articles were considered for inclusion in meta-analysis. The different forms of XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism had not significant association with overall survival (OS) under varied genetic models (heterozygous: Ln (HR) = 0.02, 95 % CI= (-0.33,0.37), p-value = 0.90; homozygous: Ln (HR) = 0.33, 95 % CI= (-0.03,0.69), p-value = 0.07 and dominant: Ln (HR) = 0.06, 95 % CI = (-0.17,0.28), p-value = 0.62). Analysis showed that variants of the polymorphism had no significant relationship with OS in Asian and Caucasian ethnicity under dominant model (Ln (HR) = 0.14, 95 % CI= (-0.13,0.40), p-value = 0.31; Ln (HR) = -0.01, 95 % CI= (-0.41,0.38), p-value = 0.96). Conclusion Different forms of XRCC1 Arg399Gln polymorphism had no significant relationship with HNSCC's prognosis under varied genetic models and based on different ethnicity.

Gene polymorphisms and prognosis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma: a systematic review. Rep Pract Oncol Radiother 2022; 27:1045-1057. [PMID: 36632296 PMCID: PMC9826662 DOI: 10.5603/rpor.a2022.0109] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/19/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCCs) are associated with variable prognosis even with similar clinical characteristics and treatments. Gene polymorphisms have been suggested as prognostic factors for HNSCC which can justified this variable prognosis. So, the aim was to review literatures on gene polymorphisms and prognosis of HNSCCs. Materials and methods A systematic search was conducted using PubMed, Web of science, SCOPUS, Google Scholar and Cochrane library databases to find all related articles published up to December 2021 in the field of gene polymorphisms and HNSCC prognosis. Results Of 1029 initial searched articles, 71 articles were selected for inclusion in this systematic review. About 93 genes and 204 polymorphisms have been discussed in these articles. Among the most studied polymorphisms, the XRCC1 Arg399Gln and Arg194Trp polymorphisms were not associated with survival in most studies; the ERCC1 C19007T polymorphism had no significant association in any of the studies. Different gene polymorphisms of glutathione s-transferase family, including GSTM1 deletion, GSTT1 deletion and GSTP1 A313G, were not associated with survival in included studies. There are conflicting results regarding the association between polymorphisms such as ERCC2 A35931C, Asp312Asn, ERCC5 rs1047768 and rs17655 with HNSCC prognosis. Less studied polymorphisms, such as hOGG1 rs1052133 or the VEGF rs699947, were generally not associated with HNSCC prognosis. Conclusion Reviewed articles reported varied and contradictory results regarding the association of gene polymorphisms and HNSCC prognosis, which necessitates further studies along with meta-analysis on the results of such studies.

Abstract
D5D is an independent prognostic factor in cancer. D5D aggravates cancer progression via mediating AA/PGE2 production from DGLA. AA/PGE2 promotes cancer progression via regulating the tumor microenvironment. Inhibition of D5D redirects COX-2 catalyzed DGLA peroxidation, producing 8-HOA. 8-HOA suppress cancer by regulating proliferation, apoptosis, and metastasis.
Delta-5 desaturase (D5D) is a rate-limiting enzyme that introduces double-bonds to the delta-5 position of the n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid chain. Since fatty acid metabolism is a vital factor in cancer development, several recent studies have revealed that D5D activity and expression could be an independent prognostic factor in cancers. However, the mechanistic basis of D5D in cancer progression is still controversial. The classical concept believes that D5D could aggravate cancer progression via mediating arachidonic acid (AA)/prostaglandin E2 production from dihomo-γ-linolenic acid (DGLA), resulting in activation of EP receptors, inflammatory pathways, and immunosuppression. On the contrary, D5D may prevent cancer progression through activating ferroptosis, which is iron-dependent cell death. Suppression of D5D by RNA interference and small-molecule inhibitor has been identified as a promising anti-cancer strategy. Inhibition of D5D could shift DGLA peroxidation pattern from generating AA to a distinct anti-cancer free radical byproduct, 8-hydroxyoctanoic acid, resulting in activation of apoptosis pathway and simultaneously suppression of cancer cell survival, proliferation, migration, and invasion. Hence, understanding the molecular mechanisms of D5D on cancer may therefore facilitate the development of novel therapeutical applications. Given that D5D may serve as a promising target in cancer, in this review, we provide an updated summary of current knowledge on the role of D5D in cancer development and potentially useful therapeutic strategies.

Prognostic value of transforming growth factor beta receptor 1 polymorphisms in patients with oral cancer. J Oral Pathol Med 2019; 49:137-144. [PMID: 31651066 DOI: 10.1111/jop.12967] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2019] [Revised: 10/07/2019] [Accepted: 10/18/2019] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate possible associations between disease-specific survival (DSS) of oral cancer and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in transforming growth factor beta receptor 1 (TGFBR1). METHODS Using iPLEX Sequenom MassARRAY platform, three SNPs in TGFBR1 gene were genotyped in 356 newly diagnosed patients with histologically confirmed primary oral cancer. Demographic and clinical information of all cases were obtained from face-to-face interviews and electronic medical records, and telephone interviews were carried out every 6 months to timely gain follow-up data. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards model were used to assess the association between the polymorphisms of tagging loci and DSS of oral cancer. RESULTS TGFBR1 rs33438 polymorphism was protective against death of oral cancer in codominant (AG vs AA: HR = 0.55, 95% CI = 0.35-0.88) and dominant (GG + AG vs AA: HR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.38-0.87) models. Moreover, better DSS was particularly significant in radiotherapy patients who carrying GG + AG genotype. There also existed a positive multiplicative interaction on DSS between the polymorphism of TGFBR1 rs334348 and radiotherapy (P = .001). Not any associations between TGFBR1 rs334354 or rs3739798 polymorphism and DSS were observed. CONCLUSIONS This preliminary prospective study suggests that polymorphism of TGFBR1 rs334348 may act as a potentially independent factor and novel genetic biomarker to predict oral cancer DSS especially for patients with radiotherapy. A much more extensive investigation will need to confirm our findings.

Log Odds of Positive Lymph Nodes is Not Superior to the Number of Positive Lymph Nodes in Predicting Overall Survival in Patients With Oral Squamous Cell Carcinomas. J Oral Maxillofac Surg 2019; 78:305-312. [PMID: 31705864 DOI: 10.1016/j.joms.2019.09.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2019] [Revised: 08/26/2019] [Accepted: 09/24/2019] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE It is unclear whether the log odds of positive lymph nodes (LODDS) outperforms the number of positive lymph nodes (LN+) in predicting the overall survival (OS) of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients. The specific aim of this study was to compare the prognostic predictive performance of LN+ with LODDS in OSCC patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS This prospective cohort study was conducted in Fujian, China, from December 2005 to January 2017. Patients' characteristics and clinicopathologic data were obtained through medical records, and follow-up data were obtained by telephone interviews. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the association between LN+ or LODDS and OS in OSCC. Finally, the Harrell concordance index, Akaike information criterion, and area under the receiver operating characteristic curve were adopted as criteria for assessing the predictive performance of lymph node models. RESULTS For all 706 patients, the 5-year survival rate was 65.69% (95% confidence interval, 0.61 to 0.70) and the mean age at diagnosis was 57.32 ± 11.80 years. Of the patients, 456 were men and 250 were women (ratio of 1.82:1). LN+ and LODDS were significantly associated with a poor prognosis of OSCC patients (all P values for trend < .001). Furthermore, the prognostic value of LODDS was not better than that of LN+. An interesting finding was that there was a J-shaped relationship between the number of negative lymph nodes and OS. The hazard ratio was reduced with each additional negative lymph node dissected up to 24 negative lymph nodes, with no improvement in prognosis beyond this number. Moreover, when the number of negative lymph nodes was greater than 40, the negative lymph nodes suggested a worse prognosis for OSCC patients. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that the discriminatory capability of LODDS was not superior to that of LN+. An interesting finding was that, when the number of negative lymph nodes was greater than 40, the predictive power of LODDS was reduced tremendously.

Abstract
This study aims to develop a simple dietary score to comprehensively evaluate the role of diet in the risk of oral cancer. A case-control study including 930 oral cancer cases and 2667 frequency-matched controls was performed in Fujian, China. Unconditional logistic regression model was used to estimate the effects of dietary factors on oral cancer. After adjustment for potential confounders, less intake of domestic meat (< 3 times per week), fish (< 3 times per week), seafood (< 3 times per week), leafy vegetables (< 1 time per day), other vegetables (< 1 time per day), fruits (< 3 times per week), milk and dairy products (< 1 time per week) and eggs (< 5 times per week) were significant risk factors for oral cancer. Then these variables were incorporated to establish dietary risk score. Assessed by the receiver operating characteristic curve, the score showed a satisfactory discriminatory capacity, with an area under the curve of 0.682 (95% CI: 0.662–0.702). Moreover, the score was positively associated with the risk of oral cancer as quartiles, and the association was apparently stronger in tobacco smokers or alcohol drinkers. Additionally, there were significant multiplicative interactions between the score and tobacco smoking or alcohol drinking for oral cancer. In the present study, a convenient dietary score with satisfactory discriminatory capacity was developed to assess the collected effect of dietary factors on oral cancer, which could provide a new strategy for the prevention of oral cancer through changing in dietary habits.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the independent and combined effects of fatty acid desaturase 1 (FADS1) gene polymorphism and fish consumption on oral cancer. A hospital-based case-control study was performed including 305 oral cancer patients and 579 cancer-free controls. The genotypes were determined by TaqMan genotyping assay. Non-conditional logistic regression model was used to assess the effects of FADS1 rs174549 polymorphism and fish intake. Subjects carrying A allele of rs174549 significantly reduced the risk of oral cancer (AA VS GG, OR: 0.65, 95% CI: 0.42-0.99; AA VS AG+GG, OR: 0.67, 95% CI: 0.46-0.98). Moreover, the statistically significant reverse associations were especially evident in men, smokers, alcohol drinkers and those age ≤ 60 years. Additionally, fish intake ≥7 times/week showed a 73% reduction in risk for oral cancer compared to those who ate fish less than 2 times/week (OR: 0.27, 95% CI: 0.18-0.42). Furthermore, a significant gene-diet multiplicative interaction was observed between FADS1 rs174549 polymorphism and fish intake for oral cancer (P=0.028). This preliminary study suggests that FADS1 rs174549 polymorphism and fish consumption may be protective factors for oral cancer, with a gene-diet multiplicative interaction. Functional studies with larger samples are required to confirm our findings.

Abstract
There is considerable inter-individual variabil¬ity in chemoradiotherapy responses in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) patients receiv¬ing the same or similar treatment protocols. In this study we evaluated the association between the gene polymorphisms in endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress pathway and chemoradiation responses in Chinese NPC patients. A total of 150 patients with histopathologically conformed NPC and treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy were enrolled. Genotypes in ER stress pathway genes, including VCP (valosin-containing protein) rs2074549, HSP90B1 rs17034943, CANX (calnexin) rs7566, HSPA5 [heat shock protein family A (Hsp70) member 5] rs430397, CALCR (calcitonin receptor) rs2528521, and XBP1 (X-box binding protein 1) rs2269577 were analyzed by Sequenom MassARRAY system. The short-term effects of primary tumor and lymph node after radiotherapy were assessed based on the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) of WHO. And acute radiation-induced toxic reactions were evaluated according to the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group or European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (RTOG/EORTC). The effects of gene polymorphisms on clinical outcomes of chemoradiotherapy were assessed by chi-square test, univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. We found that CT and CT+CC genotypes of CANX rs7566 was significantly correlated with primary tumor treatment efficacy at 3 months after chemoradiotherapy and with occurrence of radiation-induced myelosuppression in Chinese NPC patients. CT and CT+CC genotypes of CALCR rs2528521 were significantly correlated with cervical lymph node efficacy at 3 months after chemoradiotherapy. And CC and CT+CC genotypes of VCP rs2074549 were significantly associated with occurrence of myelosuppression. In conclusion, SNPs of VCP rs2074549, CANX rs7566 and CALCR rs2528521 in ER stress pathway genes may serve as predictors for clinical outcomes of chemoradiotherapy in Chinese NPC patients.

Abstract
This study aims to develop an applicable prognostic index with conventional factors for predicting outcome of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). We performed a prospective study in a large cohort of 892 OSCC patients in Fujian, China. All patients were randomly divided into a discovery group and validation group. A prognostic index was developed based on β value of each significant variable obtained from the multivariate Cox regression model. The results from discovery and validation set demonstrated thatthe model-4(included clinical stage, tumor differentiation, ill-fitting denture, oral hygiene and cigarette smoking) was the optimal model. The optimal cutoff points of prognostic index (1.88 and 2.80) were determined by X-tile program which categorized all subjects into low, middle and high risk subsets. Patients in high risk group were at the greatest risk of death compared with those in low risk group (HR: 6.02; 95%CI: 4.33-8.38). Moreover, there was a significant tendency of the worse overall survival with the higher prognostic index (Ptrend <0.001). The discriminatory capacity of prognostic index was 0.661(95%CI: 0.621-0.701). This study developed and validated a prognostic index that is an economical and useful tool for predicting the clinical outcomes of OSCC patients in Southeast China. Future randomized trials with larger cohort are required to confirm our results.
