Abstract
The tripartite-motif (TRIM) family represents one of the largest classes of putative single protein RING-finger E3 ubiquitin ligases. TRIM family is involved in a variety of cellular signaling transductions and biological processes. TRIM family also contributes to cancer initiation, progress, and therapy resistance, exhibiting oncogenic and tumor-suppressive functions in different human cancer types. Moreover, TRIM family members have great potential to serve as biomarkers for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. In this review, we focus on the specific mechanisms of the participation of TRIM family members in tumorigenesis, and cancer development including interacting with dysregulated signaling pathways such as JAK/STAT, PI3K/AKT, TGF-β, NF-κB, Wnt/β-catenin, and p53 hub. In addition, many studies have demonstrated that the TRIM family are related to tumor resistance; modulate the epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) process, and guarantee the acquisition of cancer stem cells (CSCs) phenotype. In the end, we havediscussed the potential of TRIM family members for cancer therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
One of the most common cancers diagnosed worldwide is breast cancer (BC), which is the leading cause of cancer death among women. The radiogenomics method is more accurate for managing and inhibiting this disease, which takes individual diagnosis on genes, environments, and lifestyles of each person. The present study aims to highlight the current state-of-the-art, the current role and limitations, and future directions of radiogenomics in breast cancer.
Method
This systematic review article was searched from databases such as Embase, PubMed, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Cochrane Library without any date or language limitations of databases. Searches were performed using Boolean OR and AND operators between the main terms and keywords of particular topic of the subject under investigation. All retrospective, prospective, cohort, and pilot studies were included, which were provided with more details about the topic. Articles such as letter to the editor, review, and short communications were excluded because of lack of information, discussions, or use of radiogenomics method on other cancers. For quality assessment of articles, STROBE checklist was used.
Result
For the systematic review, 18 articles were approved after assessing the full text of selected articles. In this review, 3614 patients with BC of selected articles were evaluated, and all radiogenomics were associated with more power in classification, differential diagnosis, and prognosis of BC. Among the various modalities to predict genomic indicators and molecular subtypes, DCE-MRI has the higher performance and finally the highest amount of AUC value (0.956) belonged to PI3K gene.
Conclusion
This review shows that radiogenomics can help with the diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer in patients. It has shown that recognizing and specifying radiogenomic phenotypes in the genomic signatures can be helpful in treatment and diagnosis of disease. The molecular methods used in these articles are limited to miRNAs expression, gene expression, Ki67 proliferation index, next-generation RNA sequencing, whole RNA sequencing, and molecular histopathology that can be completed in future studies by other methods such as exosomal miRNAs, specific proteins expression, DNA repair capacity, and other biomarkers that have prognostic and predictive value for cancer treatment response. Studies with control group and large sample size for evaluation of radiogenomics in diagnosis and treatment recommended.

Radiation-induced DNA damage and altered expression of p21, cyclin D1 and Mre11 genes in human fibroblast cell lines with different radiosensitivity. Mutat Res 2021; 823:111760. [PMID: 34390933 DOI: 10.1016/j.mrfmmm.2021.111760] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2021] [Revised: 06/26/2021] [Accepted: 08/03/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE Radiotherapy plays a pivotal role in the treatment of cancer. One of the main challenges in this treatment modality is radiation-induced complications in some patients affected by high radiosensitivity (RS). The differences in RS are determined mainly by genetic factors. Therefore, identifying the genes and mechanisms that affect RS in different cells is essential for evaluating radiotherapy outcomes. In the present study, the ability to repair DNA double-stranded breaks (DSB) is evaluated, followed by examining the expression levels of CDKN1A (p21), cyclinD1, and Mre11 genes in human fibroblasts with different RSs. MATERIALS & METHODS Cellular RS was measured by survival fraction at 2 Gy (SF2). The γ-H2AX assay was used for assessing DNA repair capacity. Eventually, gene expression levels from each cell line 4 and 24 h after irradiation (at 2, 4, and 8 Gy) were measured by real-time PCR. RESULTS The SF2 values for the cell lines ranged from 0.286 to 0.641, and RS differences of fibroblast cells were identified. Among the studied genes, the expression of Mre11 was the most important. Analysis of the real-time PCR data showed that changes in Mre11 gene expression (4 h after 8 Gy irradiation) were directly correlated with the RS (R2 = 0.905). The difference in the expression of the p21 gene (4 h after 4 Gy irradiation) was also promising. Finally, the flow cytometry analysis showed that the radioresistant cell lines quickly repaired DBS damages. However, the repair process was slow in the radiosensitive cell line, and the residual damage is significantly higher than other cell lines (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS This study indicates that changes in the expression of p21 and Mre11 genes play an important role in cell response to radiation and thus these genes can be introduced as biomarkers to predict RS in normal cell lines.
