Abstract
BACKGROUND The relationship between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and gastroesophageal cancer is not constant. METHODS In this population-based cohort study, 4.518 million cancer-free individuals among those who underwent national cancer screening in 2010 were enrolled and followed up until December 2017. HDL-C level was classified into eight groups at 10 mg/dL intervals. The risk of gastroesophageal cancers by HDL-C was measured using adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). RESULTS During 8 years of follow-up, 38,362 gastric and 3022 esophageal cancers developed. Low HDL-C level was associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer; aHR was 1.19 (95% CI 1.09-1.30) for HDL-C < 30 mg/dL, 1.07 (95% CI 1.03-1.12) for HDL-C of 30-39 mg/dL, and 1.07 (95% CI 1.03-1.12) for HDL-C of 40-49 mg/dL comparing to HDL-C of 60-69 mg/dL. HDL-C was positively associated with esophageal cancer risk; aHR was 1.30 (1.12-1.51) for HDL-C of 70-79 mg/dL, 1.84 (1.53-2.22) for HDL-C of 80-89 mg/dL, 2.10 (1.67-2.61) for HDL-C ≥ 90 mg/dL. These site-specific effects of HDL-C were robust in sensitivity analyses. The range of HDL-C for the lowest cancer risk was different by sex and site. The hazardous effect of low HDL-C on gastric cancer was prominent in never and past smokers, and extremely high HDL-C increased gastric cancer risk (aHR 1.19; 95% CI 1.04-1.36) only in current smokers. Unfavorable effect of high HDL-C on gastroesophageal cancer risk was remarkable in smokers. CONCLUSIONS Low HDL-C increased the risk of gastric cancer, wherein high HDL-C was associated with esophageal cancer risk with discrepancies by sex and smoking status.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality globally, and these conditions are increasingly recognized to be fundamentally interconnected. In this Review, we present the current epidemiological data for each of the modifiable risk factors shared by the two diseases, including hypertension, hyperlipidaemia, diabetes mellitus, obesity, smoking, diet, physical activity and the social determinants of health. We then review the epidemiological data demonstrating the increased risk of CVD in patients with cancer, as well as the increased risk of cancer in patients with CVD. We also discuss the shared mechanisms implicated in the development of these conditions, highlighting their inherent bidirectional relationship. We conclude with a perspective on future research directions for the field of cardio-oncology to advance the care of patients with CVD and cancer.

Abstract
High-density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (HDL-C) levels have been associated with cancer. In this observational population-based cohort study using data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service system, we investigate the impact of longitudinal changes in HDL-C levels on gastrointestinal cancer risk. Individuals who underwent health examinations in 2010 and 2014 were followed-up through 2021. Among 3.131 million, 40696 gastric, 35707 colorectal, 21309 liver, 11532 pancreatic, 4225 gallbladder, and 7051 biliary cancers are newly detected. The persistent low HDL-C group increases the risk of gastric, liver, and biliary cancer comparing to persistent normal HDL-C group. HDL-C change from normal to low level increases the risk for gastric, colorectal, liver, pancreatic, gallbladder, and biliary cancers. Effects of HDL-C change on the gastrointestinal cancer risk are also modified by sex and smoking status. HDL-C changes affect the gastric and gallbladder cancer risk in age ≥60 years and the pancreatic and biliary cancer risk in age <60 years. Here, we show persistently low HDL-C and normal-to-low HDL-C change increase gastrointestinal cancer risk with discrepancies by sex, smoking status, and age.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To compare metabolic dysfunction-associated profiles between patients with diabetes who developed different obesity-related site-specific cancers and those who remained free of cancer during follow-up. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING Public general outpatient clinics in Hong Kong. PARTICIPANTS Patients with diabetes without a history of malignancy (n=391 921). PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURES The outcomes of interest were diagnosis of site-specific cancers (colon and rectum, liver, pancreas, bladder, kidney and stomach) during follow-up. Cox proportional hazards regression was applied to assess the associations between metabolic dysfunction and other clinical factors with each site-specific cancer. RESULTS Each 0.1 increase in waist-to-hip ratio was associated with an 11%-35% elevated risk of colorectal, bladder and liver cancers. Each 1% increase in glycated haemoglobin was linked to a 4%-9% higher risk of liver and pancreatic cancers. While low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and triglycerides were inversely associated with the risk of liver and pancreatic cancers, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was negatively associated with pancreatic, gastric and kidney cancers, but positively associated with liver cancer. Furthermore, liver cirrhosis was linked to a 56% increased risk of pancreatic cancer. No significant association between hypertension and cancer risk was found. CONCLUSIONS Metabolic dysfunction-associated profiles contribute to different obesity-related cancer outcomes differentially among patients with diabetes. This study may provide evidence to help identify cancer prevention targets during routine diabetes care.

Correlates of normal and decreased HDL cholesterol levels in type 2 diabetes: a cohort-based cross-sectional study. Lipids Health Dis 2024; 23:18. [PMID: 38243302 PMCID: PMC10797913 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-024-02010-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/19/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The literature describes an inverse association between the values of triglyceride (TG) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). This survey was designed to exhibit the features of people with type 2 diabetes (T2D) who display this inverse association and identify potential contributing factors to having normal HDL-C values. METHODS A total of 6127 persons with T2D were assigned to the present survey. Demographic features and clinical status data were compared between subjects with a substantial inverse association of TG and HDL-C and those without. Logistic regressions were performed to ascertain the role of different factors related to normal HDL-C. Moreover, the restricted cubic spline (RCS) functions were conducted to scrutinize the underlying relationships between the studied variables and low HDL-C levels. RESULTS Patients with high TG (150 ≤ TG < 400) compared to patients with normal TG (TG < 150) were less likely to have normal HDL-C. Younger age, narrow hip, lower levels of blood pressure, two-hour postprandial glucose (2hPP), fasting blood sugar (FBS), hemoglobinA1C (HbA1C), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol, and non-HDL-C, higher atherogenic index of plasma (AIP), and TG/HDL-C ratio correlate with an inverse connection between the values of HDL-C and TG (all P < 0.05). Age greater than 65 years (odds ratio (OR) 1.260, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 1.124-1.413) had a positive association, whereas female sex (OR 0.467, CI 0.416-0.523) , 25 kg/m2 < body mass index (BMI) (OR 0.786, CI 0.691-0.894), and higher serum creatinine levels (OR 0.481, CI 0.372-0.621) had an inverse association with having normal HDL-C. CONCLUSIONS Patients with an inverse connection between TG and HDL-C values had considerably different anthropometric features, lipid profiles, and glucose indices compared to those without this relationship. Furthermore, patients who aged less than 65 years, had female gender, BMI more than 25 kg/m2, and higher serum creatinine levels were less likely to exhibit normal HDL-C levels.

Abstract
Background and aims To systematically investigate all relevant evidence on the association between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and multiple myeloma (MM). Methods We searched PubMed and Cochrane library databases (up to 20 September 2022) for studies with evidence on HDL-C in patients with MM. A qualitative synthesis of published prospective and retrospective studies for the role of HDL-C and other lipid profile parameters in MM was performed. Additionally, a meta-analysis on HDL-C mean differences (MD) between MM cases and controls was performed. Results Fourteen studies (3 prospective, 11 retrospective) including 895 MM patients were eligible for this systematic review. Ten studies compared HDL-C levels in MM patients with healthy controls. In these 10 studies (n = 17,213), pooled analyses showed that MM patients had significantly lower HDL-C levels compared to healthy controls (MD: -13.07 mg/dl, 95% CI: -17.83, -8.32, p < 0.00001). Regarding secondary endpoints, total cholesterol (TC) (MD: -22.19 mg/dl, 95% CI: -39.08, -5.30) and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) (-40.20 mg/dl, 95% CI: -55.00, -25.39) demonstrated significant decreases, while differences in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (MD: -11.33 mg/dl, 95% CI: -36.95, 14.30) and triglycerides (MD: 9.93 mg/dl, 95% CI: -3.40, 23.26) were not shown to be significant. Conclusions HDL-C, as well as TC and apoA-I, levels are significantly decreased in MM. Hence, lipid profile parameters should be taken into account when assessing such patients.

Abstract
Zn is an important trace element involved in various biochemical processes in aquatic species. An 8-week rearing trial was thus conducted to investigate the effects of Zn on juvenile largemouth bass (Micropterus salmoides) by feeding seven diets, respectively, supplemented with no Zn (Con), 60 and 120 mg/kg inorganic Zn (Sul60 and Sul120), and 30, 60, 90 and 120 mg/kg organic Zn (Bio30, Bio60, Bio90 and Bio120). Sul120 and Bio120 groups showed significantly higher weight gain and specific growth rate than Con group, with Bio60 group obtaining the lowest viscerosomatic index and hepatosomatic index. 60 or 90 mg/kg organic Zn significantly facilitated whole body Zn retention. Up-regulation of hepatic superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase activities and decline of malondialdehyde contents indicated augmented antioxidant capacities by organic Zn. Zn treatment also lowered plasma aminotransferase levels while promoting acid phosphatase activity and hepatic transcription levels of alp1, acp1 and lyz-c than deprivation of Zn. The alterations in whole body and liver crude lipid and plasma TAG contents illustrated the regulatory effect of Zn on lipid metabolism, which could be possibly attributed to the changes in hepatic expressions of acc1, pparγ, atgl and cpt1. These findings demonstrated the capabilities of Zn in potentiating growth and morphological performance, antioxidant capacity, immunity as well as regulating lipid metabolism in M. salmoides. Organic Zn could perform comparable effects at same or lower supplementation levels than inorganic Zn, suggesting its higher efficiency. 60 mg/kg supplementation of organic Zn could effectively cover the requirements of M. salmoides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Plasma cell neoplasms are a group of hematologic neoplasms that often develop in the elderly population. The relationship between cholesterol levels and hematologic malignancy has been identified in population studies. However, it is still unclear if there is a relationship between cholesterol levels and plasma cell neoplasm in European ancestry. METHODS Prospective cohorts included 502,507 individuals from the UK Biobank who were followed up to 2019 and assessed total cholesterol(TC) levels, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels, apolipoprotein A (ApoA) and apolipoprotein B (ApoB) as risk factors for plasma cell neoplasms with Cox proportional hazard regression and restricted cubic spline model. We also used two-sample Mendelian randomization to determine if the cholesterol level has a causal effect on developing plasma cell neoplasms. RESULTS We observed 1819 plasma cell neoplasm cases during 14.2 years of follow-up in the UK Biobank. We found higher blood serum cholesterol levels at baseline were associated with a lower risk of plasma cell neoplasm in our study. All lipid profiles we analyzed in this study were inversely associated with plasma cell neoplasm risk (all ptrend <0.005) but triglycerides did not have such association. However, there was no suggestive association of genetically predicted serum LDL, HDL, and total cholesterol levels with multiple myeloma. CONCLUSION Low serum total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, ApoA, and ApoB levels were all associated with increasing the risk of plasma cell neoplasm.

Abstract
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), specifically liver steatosis and fibrosis with steatohepatitis (NASH), is often associated with visceral adiposopathy, whose pathogenetic features have been proposed as tumorigenic triggers. We performed a prospective analysis in 653 metabolic women to reveal any conditions that may predict and concur to cancer development during a 8-years period of follow-up. Among clinical and biochemical variables, only AST and non-invasive liver fibrosis scores (AARPRI, APRI, FIB-4, mFIB4) significantly distinguished cancer-developer women (n = 62, 9.5%) from those who did not develop cancer (p < 0.001). In ROC analysis, these scores also showed good sensitivity and specificity in differentiating women who developed cancer (all p < 0.001). We then calculated OR for these indexes finding that increased AARPRI was associated with the highest risk (OR = 6, p < 0.001) of gynaecological cancers development. We further validated these cut-off values in women who had developed other types of cancer, confirming that AARPRI is able to identify the risk for cancer development (OR = 5, p < 0.001). Our findings support the hypothesis that NAFLD, more than obesity per se, is directly associated with the clinical and pathogenic metabolic scenario of gynaecological cancers and encourage the use of liver fibrosis indexes to detect risk of cancer onset in women. Preventing adiposopathy and NAFLD through lifestyle and therapies may represent an instrumental strategy for cancer prevention and/or co-treatment in oncology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, and better understanding of the risk factors could enhance prevention. METHODS We conducted a hypothesis-free analysis combining machine learning and statistical approaches to identify cancer risk factors from 2828 potential predictors captured at baseline. There were 459,169 UK Biobank participants free from cancer at baseline and 48,671 new cancer cases during the 10-year follow-up. Logistic regression models adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, education, material deprivation, smoking, alcohol intake, body mass index and skin colour (as a proxy for sun sensitivity) were used for obtaining adjusted odds ratios, with continuous predictors presented using quintiles (Q). RESULTS In addition to smoking, older age and male sex, positively associating features included several anthropometric characteristics, whole body water mass, pulse, hypertension and biomarkers such as urinary microalbumin (Q5 vs. Q1 OR 1.16, 95% CI = 1.13-1.19), C-reactive protein (Q5 vs. Q1 OR 1.20, 95% CI = 1.16-1.24) and red blood cell distribution width (Q5 vs. Q1 OR 1.18, 95% CI = 1.14-1.21), among others. High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Q5 vs. Q1 OR 0.84, 95% CI = 0.81-0.87) and albumin (Q5 vs. Q1 OR 0.84, 95% CI = 0.81-0.87) were inversely associated with cancer. In sex-stratified analyses, higher testosterone increased the risk in females but not in males (Q5 vs. Q1 ORfemales 1.23, 95% CI = 1.17-1.30). Phosphate was associated with a lower risk in females but a higher risk in males (Q5 vs. Q1 ORfemales 0.94, 95% CI = 0.90-0.99 vs. ORmales 1.09, 95% CI 1.04-1.15). CONCLUSIONS This hypothesis-free analysis suggests personal characteristics, metabolic biomarkers, physical measures and smoking as important predictors of cancer risk, with further studies needed to confirm causality and clinical relevance.

Development and validation of novel immune-inflammation-based clinical predictive nomograms in HER2-negative advanced gastric cancer. Front Oncol 2023; 13:1185240. [PMID: 37746295 PMCID: PMC10516559 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2023.1185240] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 08/07/2023] [Indexed: 09/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose To explore the predictive value of multiple immune-inflammatory biomarkers including serum VEGFA and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) in HER2-negative advanced gastric cancer (AGC) and establish nomograms for predicting the first-line chemotherapeutic efficacy, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients with this fatal disease. Methods From November 2017 to April 2022, 102 and 34 patients with a diagnosis of HER2-negative AGC at the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College were enrolled as development and validation cohorts, respectively. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to evaluate the clinical value of the candidate indicators. The variables were screened using LASSO regression analysis. Predictive models were developed using significant predictors and are displayed as nomograms. Results Baseline VEGFA expression was significantly higher in HER2-negative AGC patients than in nonneoplastic patients and was associated with malignant serous effusion and therapeutic efficacy (all p<0.001). Multivariate analysis indicated that VEGFA was an independent predictor for first-line therapeutic efficacy and PFS (both p<0.01) and SII was an independent predictor for first-line PFS and OS (both p<0.05) in HER2-negative AGC patients. The therapeutic efficacy model had an R2 of 0.37, a Brier score of 0.15, and a Harrell's C-index of 0.82 in the development cohort and 0.90 in the validation cohort. The decision curve analysis indicated that the model added more net benefits than VEGFA assessment alone. The PFS/OS models had Harrell's C-indexes of 0.71/0.69 in the development cohort and 0.71/0.62 in the validation cohort. Conclusion The established nomograms integrating serum VEGFA/SII and commonly available baseline characteristics provided satisfactory performance in predicting the therapeutic efficacy and prognosis of HER2-negative AGC patients.

Abstract
Endometrial carcinoma (EC) has become one of the most common gynecological malignant neoplasms in developed countries worldwide. Studies have shown that this may be closely related to the abnormal metabolism of blood lipids, which was the most significant metabolic change in the human body in this cancer. In this review, we focus on the correlation between lipid metabolism and EC and discuss the evidence that abnormal lipid metabolism promotes an increase in EC growth and metabolism, as well as the regulatory mechanism and related signaling pathways involved in this relationship. In addition, we also discussed the research progress of targeted therapies and drug treatments for EC that act on lipid metabolism, and statins are expected to become adjuvant drugs for EC in the future. This review will provide a systematic view for a better understanding of the etiological relationship between lipid metabolism and EC and further open up new therapeutic possibilities and effective treatments for EC by targeting lipid metabolism.

Associations between serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels and cause-specific mortality in a general population of 345 000 men and women aged 20-79 years. Int J Epidemiol 2023; 52:1257-1267. [PMID: 36779319 PMCID: PMC10396424 DOI: 10.1093/ije/dyad011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/31/2023] [Indexed: 02/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Benefits of elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are challenged by reports demonstrating U-shaped relations between HDL-C levels and all-cause mortality; the association with cause-specific mortality is less studied. METHODS A total of 344 556 individuals (20-79 years, 52 % women) recruited from population-based health screening during 1985-2003 were followed until the end of 2018 for all-cause and cause-specific mortality by serum HDL-C level at inclusion of <30, 30-39, 40-49, 50-59, 60-69, 70-79, 80-89, 90-99 and >99 mg/dl (< 0.78, 0.78-1.01, 1.04-1.27, 1.30-1.53, 1.55-1.79, 1.81-2.04, 2.07-2.31, 2.33-2.56, >2.56 mmol/L). Hazard ratios (HRs) were adjusted for sex, age, calendar period, smoking, total cholesterol, triglycerides, systolic blood pressure, physical activity, educational length, body mass index and ill health. RESULTS During a mean follow-up of 22 years, 69 505 individuals died. There were U-shaped associations between HDL-C levels and all-cause, cancer and non-cardiovascular disease/non-cancer mortality (non-CVD/non-cancer), whereas for CVD there was increased risk of death only at lower levels. With HDL-C stratum 50-59 mg/dl (1.30-1.53 mmol/L) as reference, HRs [95% confidence intervals (CIs)] for levels >99 mg/dl (>2.56 mmol/L) were 1.32 (1.21-1.43), 1.05 (0.89-1.24), 1.26 (1.09-1.46) and 1.68 (1.48-1.90) for all-cause, CVD, cancer and non-CVD/non-cancer mortality, respectively. For HDL-C levels <30 mg/dl (0.78 mmol/L), the corresponding HRs (95% CIs) were 1.30 (1.24-1.36), 1.55 (1.44-1.67), 1.14 (1.05-1.23) and 1.19 (1.10-1.29). The mortality from alcoholic liver disease, cancers of mouth-oesophagus-liver, chronic liver diseases, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, accidents and diabetes increased distinctly with increasing HDL-C above the reference level. HDL-C levels lower than the reference level were mainly associated with increased mortality of ischaemic heart disease (IHD), other CVDs, stomach cancer and diabetes. CONCLUSIONS Higher HDL-C levels were associated with increased mortality risk of several diseases which also have been associated with heavy drinking, and lower HDL-C levels were associated with increased mortality from IHD, other CVDs, gastric cancer and diabetes.

Abstract
Purpose Serum lipids were reported to be the prognostic factors of various cancers, but their prognostic value in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) patients remains unclear. This study investigated the relationship between lipid profiles and clinical outcomes in extensive-stage (ES) SCLC by establishing a predictive risk classification model. Patients and Methods We retrospectively analyzed the prognostic values of pretreatment serum lipids and their derivatives in patients with a confirmed diagnosis ES-SCLC. Independent factors of progression-free survival (PFS) were determined by univariate and multivariate cox analysis. Then, prognostic nomograms were established, of which predictive performance was evaluated by concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, and decision curve analyses (DCA). Results A total of 158 patients was included in this study. Four optimal PFS-related factors, total cholesterol (TC) ≥ 5.30, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) > 1.30, triglycerides (TG)/HDL-C > 2.18, and ki67 expression > 70%, were included to construct the predictive nomogram. The C-indexes in training and validation sets were 0.758 and 0.792, respectively. ROC curves, calibration plots, and DCA all suggested favorable discrimination and predictive ability. Besides, the nomogram also performed better predictive ability than ki67 expression. Nomogram-related risk score divided the patients into two groups with significant progression disparities. Conclusion The promising prognostic nomogram based on lipid parameters could help clinicians to conveniently and accurately evaluate the prognosis of ES-SCLC patients and identify high-risk groups, so as to formulate individualized therapeutic regimens and follow-up strategies in time.

Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) and cancer are leading causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide and are the major focus of the World Health Organization's joint prevention programs. While, diverse diseases, CVD and cancer, have many similarities. These include common lifestyle-related risk factors and shared environmental, metabolic, cellular, inflammatory, and genetic pathways. In this review, we will discuss the shared lifestyle-related and environmental risk factors central to both diseases and how the strategies commonly used to prevent atherosclerotic vascular disease can be applied to cancer prevention.

Optimization of the tandem enzyme activity of V-MOF and its derivatives for highly sensitive nonenzymatic detection of cholesterol in living cells. J Colloid Interface Sci 2023; 649:601-615. [PMID: 37364460 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2023.06.048] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2023] [Revised: 05/27/2023] [Accepted: 06/09/2023] [Indexed: 06/28/2023]
Abstract
It remains a great challenge to properly design and synthesize single-component artificial tandem enzymes for specific substrates with high selectivity. Herein, V-MOF is synthesized by solvothermal method and its derivatives are constructed via pyrolyzing V-MOF in nitrogen atmosphere at different temperatures, which are denoted as V-MOF-y (y = 300, 400, 500, 700 and 800). V-MOF and V-MOF-y possess tandem enzyme-like activity, i.e. cholesterol oxidase-like and peroxidase-like activity. Among them, V-MOF-700 shows the strongest tandem enzyme activity for V-N bonds. Based on the cascade enzyme activity of V-MOF-700, the nonenzymatic detection platform for cholesterol by fluorescent assay can be established in the presence of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) for the first time. The detection mechanism is that V-MOF-700 catalyzes cholesterol to generate hydrogen peroxide and further form hydroxyl radical (•OH), which can oxidize OPD to obtain oxidized OPD (oxOPD) with yellow fluorescence. The linear detection of cholesterol ranges of 2-70 μM and 70-160 μM with a lower detection limit of 0.38 μM (S/N = 3) are obtained. This method is used to detect cholesterol in human serum successfully. Especially, it can be applied to the rough quantification of membrane cholesterol in living tumor cells, indicating that it has the potential for clinical application.

Abstract
Cholesterol efflux pathways could be exploited in tumor biology to unravel cancer vulnerabilities. A mouse model of lung-tumor-bearing KRASG12D mutation with specific disruption of cholesterol efflux pathways in epithelial progenitor cells promoted tumor growth. Defective cholesterol efflux in epithelial progenitor cells governed their transcriptional landscape to support their expansion and create a pro-tolerogenic tumor microenvironment (TME). Overexpression of the apolipoprotein A-I, to raise HDL levels, protected these mice from tumor development and dire pathologic consequences. Mechanistically, HDL blunted a positive feedback loop between growth factor signaling pathways and cholesterol efflux pathways that cancer cells hijack to expand. Cholesterol removal therapy with cyclodextrin reduced tumor burden in progressing tumor by suppressing the proliferation and expansion of epithelial progenitor cells of tumor origin. Local and systemic perturbations of cholesterol efflux pathways were confirmed in human lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Our results position cholesterol removal therapy as a putative metabolic target in lung cancer progenitor cells.

Abstract
PURPOSE Plasma atherogenic index (PAI) was shown to be positively correlated with the presence of malignity in patients with suspicious findings for renal cell cancer and colon cancer in reported studies. In this study, we aimed to evaluate whether there is an association with the presence of malignity in patients PI-RADS 3 prostate lesions and PAI. METHODS This retrospective study reviewed the data of 139 patients who underwent transrectal ultrasonography-guided systematic and cognitive fusion prostate biopsy for PI-RADS 3 lesions in multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging. The patients were divided to two groups as malign (n = 33) and benign (n = 106). The association between age, body mass index, comorbidities, smoking status, prostate-specific antigen (PSA), PSA density, free/total PSA, prostate weight, lesion diameter, triglyceride value, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol value, PAI value data and presence of malignity were investigated by descriptive, multivariate and receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. RESULTS PSA, PSAD, lesion diameter and PAI value were statistically significantly higher in the malignant group compared to the benign group, and the free/total PSA ratio was lower. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, PSA > 9.9 ng/ml, free/total PSA < 12.1%, lesion diameter > 13.5 mm and PAI > 0.13 were identified as independent risk factors for presence of prostate malignancy. CONCLUSION PAI was found to be a predictive parameter for prostate cancer in PI-RADS 3 prostate lesions. Our study can open new thoughts about PAI as metric to assess the prostate cancer risk.

Front Oncol 2023; 12:1057646. [PMID: 36776373 PMCID: PMC9911863 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.1057646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Neoadjuvant chemoimmunotherapy (NCIO) is more effective than neoadjuvant immunotherapy alone for pathological response in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients, but the processes for determining patient suitability for its implementation are not clear. We aimed to identify the most relevant factors and build a convenient model to select NSCLC patients who would benefit most from NCIO. Methods We retrospectively collected the clinical data of patients with locally advanced NSCLC who received NCIO followed by surgery at our institution between January 2019 and July 2022. Results A total of 101 eligible stage IIB-IIIC NSCLC patients were included. After NCIO, all patients successfully underwent surgical resection. A total of 46.53% (47/101) of patients achieved pathological complete response (pCR), and 70.30% (71/101) achieved major pathologic response (MPR). Tumor regression rate (adjusted odds ratio OR = 12.33), PD-L1 expression (adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 9.66), pembrolizumab/nab-paclitaxel-based regimens (adjusted OR = 4.92), and comorbidities (adjusted OR = 0.16) were independently associated with pCR rate (all P < 0.05). Tumor regression rate (adjusted OR = 8.45), PD-L1 expression (adjusted OR = 5.35), and presence of squamous cell carcinoma (adjusted OR = 7.02) were independently associated with MPR rate (all P < 0.05). We established and validated an easy-to-use clinical model to predict pCR (with an area under the curve [AUC] of 0.848) and MPR (with an AUC of 0.847). Of note, the present study showed that CD4+ T-cell count/rate and total cholesterol (TC) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels in the peripheral blood of pre-NCIO patients were also significantly correlated with pathological response in univariate analyses. Conclusions The tumor regression rate, PD-L1 expression, pembrolizumab/nab-paclitaxel-based regimens, presence of squamous cell carcinoma, and comorbidities were the main influential factors for incidence of pCR/MPR in patients with stage IIB-IIIC NSCLC in the present study. Through predictive models, we can predict who will benefit most from NCIO prior to the emergence of clinical outcomes in locally advanced NSCLC.

Abstract
Background: Previous studies have examined the link between blood metabolic biomarkers and risk of thyroid cancer, with inconclusive results. We performed a cohort study based on the Swedish Apolipoprotein-Related Mortality Risk (AMORIS) Cohort, including 561,388 individuals undergoing health examinations during 1985−1996 with a follow-up of >30 years. Methods: Newly diagnosed cases of thyroid cancer were identified from the Swedish Cancer Register. We assessed the associations of nine blood biomarkers of carbohydrate, lipid, and apolipoprotein metabolism measured at the time of health examinations with the subsequent risk of thyroid cancer and demonstrated the temporal trend of these biomarkers during the 30 years before diagnosis of thyroid cancer. Results: After multivariable adjustment, there was a lower risk of thyroid cancer, per standard deviation increase in total cholesterol (TC; HR 0.91; 95%CI 0.82−0.99) and HDL-C (HR 0.86; 95%CI 0.75−0.99). During the 20 to 30 years before diagnosis, patients with thyroid cancer, as a group, demonstrated constantly lower levels of TC and HDL-C, compared to controls. Further, patients with thyroid cancer demonstrated declining levels of these biomarkers during the ten years before diagnosis, whereas controls demonstrated stable or increasing levels. Conclusions: Taken together, we found blood levels of TC and HDL-C to be associated with the risk of thyroid cancer and that there was a declining level of metabolic biomarkers during the 10 years before diagnosis of thyroid cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal (GI) cancer risk has been associated with metabolic syndrome (MetS), a surrogate indicator for unhealthy lifestyles, and a number of genetic loci, but the combined effect of MetS and genetic variants on GI cancer risk is uncertain. METHODS We included 430,036 participants with available MetS and genotype data from UK Biobank. During the follow-up time, 5494 incident GI cancer cases, including esophageal cancer, gastric cancer, and colorectal cancer, were identified. We created a GI polygenic risk score (GI-PRS) for overall GI cancer derived from three site-specific cancer PRSs. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to estimate the associations of MetS and GI-PRS with the risk of GI cancer. RESULTS MetS was significantly associated with 28% increment in GI cancer risk (hazard ratio [HR]MetS vs. non-MetS : 1.28, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.21-1.35, p < 0.0001), whereas a high GI-PRS (top quintile) was associated with 2.28-fold increase in risk (HRhigh vs. low : 2.28, 95% CI: 2.09-2.49, p < 0.0001). Compared with participants without MetS and at low genetic risk (bottom quintile of GI-PRS), those with MetS and at high genetic risk had 2.75-fold increase in GI cancer risk (HR: 2.75, 95% CI: 2.43-3.12, p < 0.0001). Additionally, MetS in comparison with no MetS had 1.49‰, 2.75‰, and 3.37‰ absolute risk increases in 5 years among participants at low, intermediate (quintiles 2-4 of GI-PRS) and high genetic risk, respectively, representing the number of subjects diagnosed as MetS causing a new GI cancer case in 5 years were 669, 364, and 296, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Metabolic and genetic factors may jointly contribute to GI cancer risk and may serve as predictors by quantitative measurements to identify high-risk populations of GI cancer for precise prevention.

Low HDL-cholesterol levels predict hepatocellular carcinoma development in individuals with liver fibrosis. JHEP Rep 2022; 5:100627.

Abstract
Background & Aims Dysmetabolic conditions could drive liver fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), increasing susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We therefore aimed to identify novel predictive biomarkers of HCC in patients with and without liver fibrosis. Methods A total of 1,234 patients with putative metabolic conditions and NAFLD were consecutively assessed in our outpatient clinic. Clinical and biochemical data were recorded, and then liver ultrasonography was performed annually for 5 years to detect HCC onset. For the analysis, the population was first divided according to HCC diagnosis; then a further subdivision of those who did not develop HCC was performed based on the presence or absence of liver fibrosis at time 0. Results Sixteen HCC cases were recorded in 5 years. None of our patients had been diagnosed with cirrhosis before HCC was detected. Compared to patients who did not develop HCC, those who did had higher liver transaminases and fibrosis scores at time 0 (p <0.001). In addition, they presented with increased glycated haemoglobin levels and lower 25-OH vitamin D levels (p <0.05). Intriguingly, patients with higher liver fibrosis scores who subsequently developed HCC had lower HDL-cholesterol (HDL-c) levels at time 0 (p <0.001). Furthermore, in the 484 patients presenting with lower HDL-c at baseline, we found that waist circumference, and then vitamin D and glycated haemoglobin levels, were significantly different in those who developed HCC, regardless of liver fibrosis (p <0.05). Conclusions This study identifies HDL-c as a bona fide novel marker to predict HCC in patients with NAFLD. Increased waist circumference and deranged metabolic pathways represent additional predisposing factors among patients with low HDL-c, highlighting the importance of studying cholesterol metabolism and integrating clinical approaches with dietary regimens and a healthy lifestyle to prevent HCC. Impact and implications Visceral adiposity and its associated conditions, such as chronic inflammation and insulin resistance, may play a pivotal role in hepatocellular carcinoma development in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. We provide new insights on the underlying mechanisms of its pathogenesis, shedding light on the involvement of low levels of "good" HDL-cholesterol. We recommend integrating dietary regimens and advice on healthy lifestyles into the clinical management of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, with the goal of reducing the incidence of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Abstract
Previous interest in high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) focused on their possible protective role in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Evidence from genetic studies and randomized trials, however, questioned that the inverse association of HDL-cholesterol (HDL-C) is causal. This review aims to provide an update on the role of HDL in health and disease, also beyond ASCVD. Through evolution from invertebrates, HDLs are the principal lipoproteins, while apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins first developed in vertebrates. HDLs transport cholesterol and other lipids between different cells like a reusable ferry, but serve many other functions including communication with cells and the inactivation of biohazards like bacterial lipopolysaccharides. These functions are exerted by entire HDL particles or distinct proteins or lipids carried by HDL rather than by its cholesterol cargo measured as HDL-C. Neither does HDL-C measurement reflect the efficiency of reverse cholesterol transport. Recent studies indicate that functional measures of HDL, notably cholesterol efflux capacity, numbers of HDL particles, or distinct HDL proteins are better predictors of ASCVD events than HDL-C. Low HDL-C levels are related observationally, but also genetically, to increased risks of infectious diseases, death during sepsis, diabetes mellitus, and chronic kidney disease. Additional, but only observational, data indicate associations of low HDL-C with various autoimmune diseases, and cancers, as well as all-cause mortality. Conversely, extremely high HDL-C levels are associated with an increased risk of age-related macular degeneration (also genetically), infectious disease, and all-cause mortality. HDL encompasses dynamic multimolecular and multifunctional lipoproteins that likely emerged during evolution to serve several physiological roles and prevent or heal pathologies beyond ASCVD. For any clinical exploitation of HDL, the indirect marker HDL-C must be replaced by direct biomarkers reflecting the causal role of HDL in the respective disease.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is an anthracycline antibiotic frequently used against a wide range of cancers, including breast cancer. Although the drug is effective as a treatment against cancer, many patients develop heart failure (HF) months to years following their last treatment with DOX. The challenge in preventing DOX-induced cardiotoxicity is that symptoms present after damage has already occurred in the myocardium. Therefore, early biomarkers to assess DOX-induced cardiotoxicity are urgently needed. A better understanding of the mechanisms involved in the toxicity is important as this may facilitate the development of novel early biomarkers or therapeutic approaches. In this review, we discuss the role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles and its components as possible key players in the early development of DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. HDL particles exist in different subclasses which vary in composition and biological functionality. Multiple cardiovascular risk factors are associated with a change in HDL subclasses, resulting in modifications of their composition and physiological functions. There is growing evidence in the literature suggesting that cancer affects HDL subclasses and that healthy HDL particles enriched with sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1) protect against DOX-induced cardiotoxicity. Here, we therefore discuss associations and relationships between HDL, DOX and cancer and discuss whether assessing HDL subclass/composition/function may be considered as a possible early biomarker to detect DOX-induced cardiotoxicity.

Preoperative Serum Triglyceride to High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Ratio Can Predict Prognosis in Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study. Curr Oncol 2022; 29:6125-6136. [PMID: 36135050 PMCID: PMC9497812 DOI: 10.3390/curroncol29090481] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2022] [Revised: 08/14/2022] [Accepted: 08/23/2022] [Indexed: 01/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Previously, research has reported associations of lipid and lipoprotein imbalances with carcinogenesis and cancer progression, so they have been considered as promising prognostic biomarkers for cancer in recent years. However, the correlation of preoperative serum triglyceride to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (TG/HDL-C) with non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) prognosis remains under exploration. Here, the study investigated the prognostic function of TG/HDL-C for NSCLC. Methods: The total combined group of this retrospective study enrolled 479 NSCLC patients from two tertiary referral hospitals, of which 223 patients were defined as the training group (Nanchang) and the remaining 256 were defined as the validation group (Wuhan). The cut-off of preoperative TG/HDL-C was determined through ROC curve in the training group and verified in the validation and combined groups subsequently. With one Cox proportional hazards model and K-M survival curves, a survival analysis was conducted. Results: In the training group, the optimal cut-off of TG/HDL-C was 1.02. Furthermore, the data based on the training group revealed a greater, shorter, overall survival (OS) in patients having a high TG/HDL-C (>1.02) than those having low TG/HDL-C (≤1.02). Meanwhile, in univariate and multivariate analysis, for prognostic OS among NSCLC patients, TG/HDL-C acted as one independent factor. All the results above were confirmed in the validation and combined groups. Conclusion: NSCLC patients with a comparatively low preoperative serum TG/HDL-C level had a correlation with well OS. TG/HDL-C possibly acted as one novel, effective prognostic biomarker for NSCLC patients.

Wang X, Wang Y, Wang M, Chen X, Cui W, Chen X. The association between serum lipid levels and histological type of breast cancer. Eur J Med Res 2022; 27:154. [PMID: 35986413 PMCID: PMC9389787 DOI: 10.1186/s40001-022-00784-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/18/2022] [Accepted: 08/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Studies have investigated the association between serum lipids level or apolipoprotein levels and breast cancer (BC) risk. However, the relationship between serum lipids level and apolipoprotein levels and histological type of breast cancer remains unclear. This study was aimed to explore the association between serum lipids level and the histological type of BC, particularly to estrogen receptor (ER) and progesterone receptor (PR) positive BC. Materials and methods 220 cases of pathology-confirmed BC were retrospectively collected in this study. Patients’ demographic information, clinical data, and pathological features were obtained from medical records. Serum levels including high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-c), low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-c), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), apolipoprotein A (ApoA), ApoB, ApoE and lipoprotein a(LP(a)) were collected before treatment. Logistic regression analyses were used to show the association between serum lipids and subtypes of BC. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to analyze the predictive performance. Results There were 70 ER-negative and 73 PR-negative BC. Patients with ER-negative BC had higher HDL-c, higher LDL-c, and higher LP(a) than those in ER-positive one (p < 0.05). Patients with PR-negative BC were more likely to have high LDL-c and high LP(a) levels than patients with PR-positive one (p < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum HDL-c (odds ratio (OR): 0.27, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.10–0.76), LDL-c (OR: 0.19, 95%CI 0.04–0.93) and LP(a) (OR: 0.23,95%CI 0.07–0.80) levels were negatively associated with ER-positive BC, and serum HDL-c and LDL-c levels were significantly negatively associated with PR-positive BC (OR: 0.32, 95%CI 0.12–0.82; OR: 0.14, 95%CI 0.03–0.77). In addition, ER and PR positive BC was negatively associated with serum HDL-c and LDL-c levels (OR = 0.39, 95% CI 0.17–0.91; OR = 0.22, 95% CI 0.06–0.85) after adjusting with confounders. Serum HDL-c level (OR = 0.13, 95% CI 0.02–0.87) was still independently associated with ER and PR positive BC in postmenopausal women. The area under the curves (AUCs) of HDL-c to identify ER-positive BC, PR-positive BC, and ER and PR positive BC were 0.65 (95%CI 0.58–0.73, P < 0.01), 0.62 (95%CI 0.54–0.69, P < 0.01) and 0.64 (95%CI 0.56–0.72, P < 0.01), respectively. Conclusions Serum HDL-c and LDL-c levels were related to ER or PR positive BC. Lipid levels may also have acceptable performance in identifying BC histological type.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the prognostic significance of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and its components in patients with bladder cancer (BCa) treated with radical cystectomy (RC). Methods A total of 335 BCa patients who underwent RC between 2004 and 2019 at Peking University Third Hospital (PUTH) were analyzed retrospectively. The Kaplan-Meier method with the log-rank test was performed to assess overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard models were conducted to identify the prognostic factors of OS and PFS before and after propensity score matching (PSM). Results Enrolled patients were allocated into two groups according to the presence or absence of MetS (n=84 MetS vs n=251 non-MetS), and 82 new matched pairs were identified to balance the baseline characteristics after 1:1 PSM. In the Kaplan-Meier analysis, MetS was associated with better OS (P=0.031) than the group without MetS. In addition, a body mass index (BMI) ≥ 25 was associated with better OS (P=0.011) and PFS (P=0.031), while low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was associated with worse OS (P=0.033) and PFS (P=0.010). In all patients, multivariate Cox analysis showed that hemoglobin, pathologic tumor stage and lymph node status were identified as independent prognostic factors for both OS and PFS, while age, MetS and HDL-C were independent prognostic factors only for OS. Reproducible results of multivariate analysis can still be observed in propensity matched patients. The results of further subgroup analysis revealed that the association of MetS with increased OS (P=0.043) and BMI ≥25 with increased OS (P=0.015) and PFS (P=0.029) was observed in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) patients. Conclusions MetS was independently associated with better OS in BCa patients after RC, and HDL-C was the only component of MetS that was independently associated with worse OS. MetS and HDL-C may become reliable prognostic biomarkers of OS in BCa patients after RC to provide individualized prognostication and assist in the formulation of clinical treatment strategies.

Abstract
Lung cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related mortality in the 21st century. Statins as inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase not only reduce the cholesterol levels in the blood and decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease but may also play an important role in the prevention and treatment of lung cancer. Statins have several antitumor properties including the ability to reduce cell proliferation and angiogenesis, decrease invasion and synergistic suppression of lung cancer progression. Statins induce tumor cell apoptosis by inhibition of downstream products such as small GTP-binding proteins, Rho, Ras and Rac, which are dependent on isoprenylation. Statins reduce angiogenesis in tumors by down-regulation of pro-angiogenic factors, such as vascular endothelial growth factor. In this review, the feasibility and efficacy of statins in the prevention and treatment of lung cancer are discussed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to assess the incidence of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in aged patients (older than 65 years) with and without stress urinary incontinence (SUI). METHODS We evaluated the components of MetS in 460 SUI patients and 460 age-matched women without urinary incontinence from January 2009 to October 2019. Stress urinary incontinence was diagnosed by clinical complaint and the presence of involuntary urine leakage during physical activity. Definition of MetS was on the basis of the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III recommendations definition (NCEPATPIII) and the International Diabetes Federation criteria (IDF). RESULTS Totally, 460 SUI patients with the median age of 70 years were eventually included in the study. Subsequently, 460 age-matched controls were selected. The prevalence of MetS was more frequent in SUI patients based on the NCEPATPIII (43.04% vs 19.78%, P < 0.0001) and IDF criteria (45.22% vs 20.22%, P < 0.0001). Moreover, logistic regression analysis revealed that MetS significantly increased the risk of SUI (odds ratio = 3.06, 95% confidence interval = 2.28-4.09) according to the NCEPATPIII definition and (odds ratio = 3.26, 95% confidence interval = 2.43-4.34) on the basis of IDF criteria compared with controls. Patients in the SUI group had a statistically higher body mass index (P < 0.0001), larger waist (P < 0.0001), higher level of fasting blood glucose (P = 0.0001), triglycerides (P = 0.00), and systolic blood pressure (P = 0.0001) than controls. Patients with SUI demonstrated a statistically worse symptom score in all aspects compared with controls (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS The prevalence of MetS was higher in older women with SUI than in an age- and sex-matched control group without clinical SUI. Further studies are warranted to determine the pathophysiology mechanism of SUI and MetS.

Abstract
Aims Alcohol consumption has been linked to colorectal cancer (CRC) and also to the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level (HDL-C). HDL-C has been associated with the incidence of CRC. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between self-reported alcohol consumption, HDL-C and incidence of CRC, separately for the two sites. Methods Altogether, 250,010 participants in Norwegian surveys have been followed-up for an average of 18 years with respect to a first-time outcome of colon or rectal cancer. During follow-up, 3023 and 1439 colon and rectal cancers were registered. Results For men, the HR per 1 drink per day was 1.05 with 95% confidence interval (0.98–1.12) for colon and 1.08 (1.02–1.15) for rectal cancer. The corresponding figures for women were 1.03 (0.97–1.10) and 1.05 (1.00–1.10). There was a positive association between alcohol consumption and HDL-C. HDL-C was inversely associated with colon cancer in men (0.74 (0.62–0.89) per 1 mmol/l) and positively associated with rectal cancer, although not statistically significant (1.15 (0.92–1.44). A robust regression that assigned weights to each observation and exclusion of weights ≤ 0.1 increased the HRs per 1 drink per day and decreased the HR per 1 mmol/l for colon cancer. The associations with rectal cancer remained unchanged. Conclusion Our results support a positive association between alcohol consumption and colon and rectal cancer, most pronounced for rectal cancer. Considering the positive relation between alcohol consumption and HDL-C, the inverse association between HDL-C and colon cancer in men remains unsettled.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one of the main leading causes of women death. In recent years, attention has been focused on the role of lipoproteins, alterations of cholesterol metabolism and oxidative stress in the molecular mechanism of breast cancer. A role for high density lipoproteins (HDL) has been proposed, in fact, in addition to the role of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), HDL exert antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, modulate intracellular cholesterol homeostasis, signal transduction and proliferation. Low levels of HDL-Cholesterol (HDL-C) have been demonstrated in patients affected by breast cancer and it has been suggested that low levels of HDL-C could represent a risk factor of breast cancer. Contrasting results have been observed by other authors. Recent studies have demonstrated alterations of the activity of some enzymes associated to HDL surface such as Paraoxonase (PON1), Lecithin-Cholesterol Acyltransferase (LCAT) and Phospholipase A2 (PLA2). Higher levels of markers of lipid peroxidation in plasma or serum of patients have also been observed and suggest dysfunctional HDL in breast cancer patients. The review summarizes results on levels of markers of oxidative stress of plasma lipids and on alterations of enzymes associated to HDL in patients affected by breast cancer. The effects of normal and dysfunctional HDL on human breast cancer cells and molecular mechanisms potentially involved will be also reviewed.

Abstract
High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are well known for their protective role against the development and progression of atherosclerosis. Atheroprotection is mainly due to the key role of HDL within the reverse cholesterol transport, and to their ability to exert a series of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities. Through the same mechanisms HDL could also affect cancer cell proliferation and tumor progression. Many types of cancers share common alterations of cellular metabolism, including lipid metabolism. In this context, not only fatty acids but also cholesterol and its metabolites play a key role. HDL were shown to reduce cancer cell content of cholesterol, overall rewiring cholesterol homeostasis. In addition, HDL reduce oxidative stress and the levels of pro-inflammatory molecules in cancer cells and in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, HDL can also help in reverting tumor immune escape and in inhibiting angiogenesis. Interestingly, HDL are good candidates for drug delivery, targeting antineoplastic agents to the tumor mass mainly through their binding to the scavenger receptor BI. Since they could affect cancer development and progression per se, HDL-based drug delivery systems may render cancer cells more sensitive to antitumor agents and reduce the development of drug resistance.

Abstract
Low plasma levels of High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (HDL-C) are associated with increased risks of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). In cell culture and animal models, HDL particles exert multiple potentially anti-atherogenic effects. However, drugs increasing HDL-C have failed to prevent cardiovascular endpoints. Mendelian Randomization studies neither found any genetic causality for the associations of HDL-C levels with differences in cardiovascular risk. Therefore, the causal role and, hence, utility as a therapeutic target of HDL has been questioned. However, the biomarker "HDL-C" as well as the interpretation of previous data has several important limitations: First, the inverse relationship of HDL-C with risk of ASCVD is neither linear nor continuous. Hence, neither the-higher-the-better strategies of previous drug developments nor previous linear cause-effect relationships assuming Mendelian randomization approaches appear appropriate. Second, most of the drugs previously tested do not target HDL metabolism specifically so that the futile trials question the clinical utility of the investigated drugs rather than the causal role of HDL in ASCVD. Third, the cholesterol of HDL measured as HDL-C neither exerts nor reports any HDL function. Comprehensive knowledge of structure-function-disease relationships of HDL particles and associated molecules will be a pre-requisite, to test them for their physiological and pathogenic relevance and exploit them for the diagnostic and therapeutic management of individuals at HDL-associated risk of ASCVD but also other diseases, for example diabetes, chronic kidney disease, infections, autoimmune and neurodegenerative diseases.

Low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels are associated with malignant intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms: A multicenter study. Lipids Health Dis 2021; 20:94. [PMID: 34454509 PMCID: PMC8399724 DOI: 10.1186/s12944-021-01523-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2021] [Accepted: 08/16/2021] [Indexed: 12/28/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMNs) can potentially undergo malignant transformation. Studies have shown that high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) was associated with the risk of cancer. In this study, the association between HDL-c and the incidence of malignancy in IPMNs was investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS 226 patients with histologically proven IPMNs who underwent surgery were included in the present study. Patients were assigned to a training group (n = 151) and validation group (n = 75). Patients' demographic information, clinical data, and histopathological evaluation findings were obtained from medical records. Malignant IPMNs were defined as lesions that showed high grade dysplasia and invasive carcinoma. Logistic regression analyses were used to show the association between HDL-c and malignant IPMNs. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were generated to analyze predictive performance. RESULTS The prevalence of low HDL-c levels was higher in patients with malignant IPMNs than in those with non-malignant IPMNs (P < 0.01) in both the training group and validation group. The prevalence of malignant IPMNs decreased with an increase in HDL-c levels both in patients with all types of IPMNs, as well as in those with branch-duct IPMNs (BD-IPMNs).Logistic analysis showed that low HDL-c levels were associated with malignant IPMNs (odds ratio (OR) = 20.56, 95 % confidence interval (CI): 2.58-163.64, P < 0.01) in all types of IPMNs and BD-IPMNs (OR = 17.6, 95 %CI: 1.16-268.46, P = 0.02 ).The predictive performance of mural nodules plus low HDL-c levels was higher than that of mural nodules alone or mural nodules plus cyst size for the identification of malignant BD-IPMNs. CONCLUSIONS HDL-c levels may serve a potential biomarker for identifying malignant IPMNs and improve the predictive ability of malignancy in BD-IPMNs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) concentration and variability are both important factors of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality. We aimed to explore the associations of HDL-C and longitudinal change in HDL-C with risk of mortality. METHODS AND RESULTS We recruited a total of 69,163 participants aged ≥40 years and had medical examination records of HDL-C during 2010-2014 from the Yinzhou District, Ningbo, China. Hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using Cox proportional hazards regression models. We observed a non-linear association of HDL-C with risks of non-accidental and CVD mortality. Compared with the moderate concentration group (1.4-1.6 mmol/L), HDL-C <1 mmol/L was associated with a higher risk of non-accidental mortality (HR: 1.13 (95% CI: 1.01-1.27)) and both HDL-C <1 mmol/L and ≥2 mmol/L were associated with a higher risk of CVD mortality (HRs: 1.23 (95% CI: 1.01-1.50) and 1.37 (95% CI: 1.03-1.82), respectively). Compared with the stable group ([-0.1, +0.1 mmol/L]), a large decrease ([-0.5, -0.3 mmol/L]) and very large decrease (<-0.5 mmol/L) in HDL-C were associated with a higher risk of non-accidental mortality (HRs: 1.40 (95% CI: 1.21-1.63) and 1.78 (95% CI: 1.44-2.20), respectively). Similar results were observed for CVD mortality and cancer mortality. CONCLUSION Extremely low or high HDL-C and a large decrease or very large decrease in HDL-C were associated with a higher risk of cause-specific mortality. Monitoring of HDL-C may have utility in identifying individuals at higher risk of mortality.

Abstract
Breast cancer is one the most common malignancies and leading cause of cancer-related mortality in women. Recent studies suggested that hypercholesterolemia may be the potential modifiable risk factors for breast cancer. Cholesterol was well-known for its strong association with cardiovascular disease for long. Moreover, solid evidence has been provided by different studies to illustrate the correlation between lipid and incidence in multiple cancers. Although the conclusion remains controversial or sometimes contrary, which may be due to the multifactorial nature of the disease and the disparity of ethnic population, it is critical to elucidate the relationship between specific cholesterol components in certain population and the exact underlying mechanism of the lipid-associated signaling pathway in breast cancer. The implications of dysregulated lipoproteins as therapeutic targets or options for breast cancer provide novel strategies for us in combating with this malignant disease, which may be achieved by manipulating lipid levels with pharmacological compounds.

Abstract
The protective role of high high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) against cardiovascular risk has been questioned recently. Due to the increasing trend of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) in Tunisia, this study aimed to determine the prevalence of high HDL-C and its associated factors in Tunisian women of childbearing age. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among a subsample of 1689 women, aged 20 to 49 years, in the Great Tunis region. Data on socio-demographic and lifestyle factors were collected by a questionnaire. Overall adiposity was assessed by body mass index (BMI). All biological variables were assayed in blood samples coated with anticoagulant ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid (EDTA) by enzymatic methods. Stata software (2015) was used for data management and statistical analysis. High HDL-C values were recorded in 26.6% of selected women. After adjustment for all socio-demographic and lifestyle factors, age, hypertension, and smoking were negatively associated with high HDL-C levels, while family history of cancer was positively associated with high HDL-C in women. An additional investigation on the relationship between high HDL-C and cancer risk should be performed due to controversial results.

Abstract
Defective cholesterol efflux pathways in mice promote the expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells and a bias toward the myeloid lineage, as observed in chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Here, we identify 5 somatic missense mutations in ABCA1 in 26 patients with CMML. These mutations confer a proliferative advantage to monocytic leukemia cell lines in vitro. In vivo inactivation of ABCA1 or expression of ABCA1 mutants in hematopoietic cells in the setting of Tet2 loss demonstrates a myelosuppressive function of ABCA1. Mechanistically, ABCA1 mutations impair the tumor-suppressor functions of WT ABCA1 in myeloproliferative neoplasms by increasing the IL-3Rβ signaling via MAPK and JAK2 and subsequent metabolic reprogramming. Overexpression of a human apolipoprotein A-1 transgene dampens myeloproliferation. These findings identify somatic mutations in ABCA1 that subvert its anti-proliferative and cholesterol efflux functions and permit the progression of myeloid neoplasms. Therapeutic increases in HDL bypass these defects and restore normal hematopoiesis. Viaud et al. show that ABCA1 mutants identified in CMML patients diminish the tumor-suppressor functions of ABCA1 and cooperate with Tet2 loss to confer the hypersensitivity of myeloid progenitors to IL-3 receptor β canonical signaling, which can be prevented by raising HDL levels.

Abstract
The vast majority of research about HDL (high-density lipoprotein) has for decades revolved around the possible role of HDL in atherosclerosis and its therapeutic potential within cardiovascular disease prevention; however, failures with therapies aimed at increasing HDL cholesterol has left questions as to what the role and function of HDL in human health and disease is. Recent observational studies have further shown that extreme high HDL cholesterol is associated with high mortality leading to speculations that HDL could in some instances be harmful. In addition, evidence from observational, and to a lesser extent genetic studies has emerged indicating that HDL might be associated with the development of other major noncardiovascular diseases, such as infectious disease, autoimmune disease, cancer, type 2 diabetes, kidney disease, and lung disease. In this review, we discuss (1) the association between extreme high HDL cholesterol and mortality and (2) the emerging human evidence linking HDL to several major diseases outside the realm of cardiovascular disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION AND HYPOTHESIS The aim of this study was to compare the frequency of metabolic syndrome (MetS) in patients with and without interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS). METHODS This case-control study evaluated the indicators of MetS in 287 females with IC/BPS and in 287 females without IC/BPS in West China Hospital between January 2010 and January 2020. Then, the number of voids per day, frequency of night urination, O'Leary-Sant Interstitial Cystitis Symptom/Problem Index, and visual analog scale were examined in the two groups. RESULTS Based on both the National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III recommendations and the International Diabetes Federation criteria, the distribution of MetS was statistically higher in patients with IC/BPS than in the control group, with 34.8% vs 17.8% (P < 0.0001) and 34.2% vs 20.9% (P = 0.0005), respectively. Regarding symptom scores, the IC/BPS group demonstrated significantly higher scores than the control group in all aspects (P < 0.0001). More patients with anxiety (P < 0.0001), insomnia (P < 0.0001), hypertension (P = 0.0001), and diabetes mellitus (P = 0.017) were observed in the IC/BPS group. Moreover, the findings indicated that patients with IC/BPS had a higher BMI (P = 0.0001) and larger waist circumference (P = 0.0001). Blood tests presented a significantly higher level of fasting glycemia, serum cystatin-C, and triglycerides in patients with IC/BPS. Furthermore, higher ORs for the occurrence of MetS among cases were observed, although this was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS MetS frequency was relatively high in patients with IC/BPS. Further research is needed to understand the common pathophysiologic mechanism of IC/BPS and MetS.

Abstract
Peptides have many advantages over traditional therapeutics, including small molecules and other biologics, because of their low toxicity and immunogenicity, while still exhibiting efficacy. This review discusses the benefits and mechanism of action of apolipoprotein mimetic peptides in tumor biology and their potential utility in treating various cancers. Among lipoproteins in the circulation, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and its constituents including apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I; the predominant protein in HDL), apoJ, and apoE, harbor anti-tumorigenic activities. Peptides that mimic apoA-I function have been developed through molecular mimicry of the amphipathic α-helices of apoA-I. Oral apoA-I mimetic peptides remodel HDL, promote cholesterol efflux, sequester oxidized lipids, and activate anti-inflammatory processes. ApoA-I and apoJ mimetic peptides ameliorate various metrics of cancer progression and have demonstrated efficacy in preclinical models in the inhibition of ovarian, colon, breast, and metastatic lung cancers. Apolipoprotein mimetic peptides are poorly absorbed when administered orally and rapidly degraded when injected into the circulation. The small intestine is the major site of action for apoA-I mimetic peptides and recent studies suggest that modulation of immune cells in the lamina propria of the small intestine is, in part, a potential mechanism of action. Finally, several recent studies underscore the use of reconstituted HDL as target-specific nanoparticles carrying poorly soluble or unstable therapeutics to tumors even across the blood-brain barrier. Preclinical studies suggest that these versatile recombinant lipoprotein based nanoparticles and apolipoprotein mimetics can serve as safe, novel drug delivery, and therapeutic agents for the treatment of a number of cancers.

Remnant cholesterol as a risk factor for cardiovascular, cancer or other causes mortality: A competing risks analysis. Nutr Metab Cardiovasc Dis 2020; 30:2093-2102. [PMID: 32819783 DOI: 10.1016/j.numecd.2020.07.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2020] [Revised: 05/08/2020] [Accepted: 07/01/2020] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Cardiovascular diseases (CVDis) are leading causes of morbidity and mortality. Even after the introduction of pharmacological therapy to lower Cholesterol, there is still a residual risk that may be ascribed to remnant cholesterol (RC). We aimed, by analyzing two prospective cohort studies, to estimate the effect of RC on risk and hazard of cardiovascular deaths (CVDs), while accounting for competing risks such as cancer (CDs) and other-causes deaths (OCDs). METHODS AND RESULTS Cohorts were enrolled in 1992 and 2005. Personal data history was recorded. A fasting venous blood sample was obtained, and RC was calculated at baseline. Cause of Death was coded by using ICD-10th version. Follow-up ended on December 31, 2017. Flexible parametric competing-risks models were applied, with age at death as time-axis. In total, 5729 subjects were enrolled. There were 861 (15.1%) deaths: 234 CVDs (27.2%), 245 CDs (28.5%), 271 OCDs (31.5%) and 111 unknown causes of death (12.8%). RC exposure was a strong risk factor only for CVDs (Risk 2.54, 95% Confidence Interval 1.21; 5.34; Trend 1.26 (1.00; 1.58) for ≥1.29 mmol/L). CONCLUSIONS RC is a strong independent risk factor for cardiovascular mortality. Competing risk analysis is demonstrably a useful tool to disentangle associations among different competing events with a common risk factor.

Abstract
An inverse correlation between high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and cancer risk has been shown by several epidemiological studies. Some studies have even suggested that HDL-C can be used as a prognostic marker in patients with certain types of cancer. However, whether reduced HDL-C level is a consequential or causal factor in the development and progression of cancer remains a controversial issue. In this review, we update and summarize recent advances that highlight the role of HDL and some of its components in prognosis, diagnosis and treatment of cancer.

Abstract
High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are constitutionally dynamic nanoparticles that circulate in the blood. The biological functions of HDLs are impacted by interchangeable surface chemical components, like cholesterol and HDL-associated proteins. Current methods to quantify the chemical constituents of HDL are largely restricted to clinical or academic laboratories and require expensive instrumentation, and there is no commonality to the techniques required to detect and quantify different analytes (e.g., cholesterol versus HDL-associated protein). To potentially facilitate and streamline the analysis of HDL composition, we hypothesized that mixing native HDLs with similarly sized gold nanoparticles whose surfaces are endowed with phospholipids, called complementary nanoparticle scaffolds (CNS), would enable interparticle exchange of surface components. Then, easy isolation of the newly formed particles could be accomplished using benchtop centrifugation for subsequent measurement of HDL components exchanged to the surface of the CNS. As proof-of-concept, data demonstrate that CNS incubated with only a few microliters of human serum rapidly (1 h) sequester cholesterol and HDL-associated proteins with direct correlation to native HDLs. As such, data show that the CNS assay is a single platform for rapid isolation and subsequent detection of the surface components of native HDLs.

Abstract
Almost all living organisms have evolved autoregulatory transcriptional-translational feedback loops that produce oscillations with a period of approximately 24-h. These endogenous time keeping mechanisms are called circadian clocks. The main function of these circadian clocks is to drive overt circadian rhythms in the physiology of the organisms to ensure that main physiological functions are in synchrony with the external environment. Disruption of circadian rhythms caused by genetic or environmental factors has long-term consequences for metabolic health. Of relevance, host circadian rhythmicity and lipid metabolism are increasingly recognized to cross-regulate and the circadian clock-lipid metabolism interplay may involve in the development of obesity. Multiple systemic and molecular mechanisms, such as hormones (ie, melatonin, leptin, and glucocorticoid), the gut microbiome, and energy metabolism, link the circadian clock and lipid metabolism, and predictably, the deregulation of circadian clock-lipid metabolism interplay can increase the risk of obesity, which in turn may exacerbate circadian disorganization. Feeding time and dietary nutrients are two of key environmental Zeitgebers affecting the circadian rhythm-lipid metabolism interplay, and the influencing mechanisms in obesity development are highlighted in this review. Together, the characterization of the clock machinery in lipid metabolism aimed at producing a healthy circadian lifestyle may improve obesity care.

Low high-density lipoprotein and increased risk of several cancers: 2 population-based cohort studies including 116,728 individuals. J Hematol Oncol 2020; 13:129. [PMID: 32998735 PMCID: PMC7528381 DOI: 10.1186/s13045-020-00963-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 38] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/11/2020] [Accepted: 09/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Increasing evidence suggests that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) may play a role in cancer development. We tested the hypothesis that low HDL levels are associated with increased risk of cancer. Methods Individuals from two population-based cohorts, the Copenhagen General Population Study (2003–2015, N = 107 341), and the Copenhagen City Heart Study (1991–1994, N = 9387) were followed prospectively until end of 2016 to assess low plasma HDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein A1 as risk factors for cancer using Cox proportional hazard regression. Results During up to 25 years follow-up, we observed 8748 cancers in the Copenhagen General Population Study and 2164 in the Copenhagen City Heart Study. In the Copenhagen General Population Study and compared to individuals with HDL cholesterol ≥ 2.0 mmol/L (≥ 77 mg/dL), multivariable adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) for any cancer were 1.13 (95% confidence interval 1.04–1.22) for individuals with HDL cholesterol of 1.5–1.99 mmol/L (58–77 mg/dL), 1.18 (1.08–1.30) for HDL cholesterol of 1.0–1.49 mmol/L (39–58 mg/dL), and 1.29 (1.12–1.48) for individuals with HDL cholesterol < 1.0 mmol/L (< 39 mg/dL). Correspondingly, compared to individuals with apolipoprotein A1 ≥ 190 mg/dL, HRs for any cancer were 1.06 (0.96–1.17) for individuals with apolipoprotein A1 of 160–189 mg/dL, 1.18 (1.07–1.30) for apolipoprotein A1 of 130–159 mg/dL, and 1.28 (1.13–1.46) for individuals with apolipoprotein A1 < 130 mg/dL. Among 27 cancer types, low HDL cholesterol and/or apolipoprotein A1 were associated with increased risk of multiple myeloma, myeloproliferative neoplasm, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, breast cancer, lung cancer, and nervous system cancer. Results were overall similar in women and men separately, and in the Copenhagen City Heart Study. Conclusions Low HDL levels were associated with increased risk of several cancers. Increased risk was most pronounced for hematological and nervous system cancer, and to a minor extent for breast and respiratory cancer.
