[PMID: 31293443 PMCID: PMC6599153 DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2019.00774] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2018] [Accepted: 06/03/2019] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: Many published studies have investigated the association between CYP17 rs743572 polymorphism and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) susceptibility but have yielded inconsistent results. Hence, we performed this meta-analysis using the multivariate statistic method to address a more precise association. Methods: Case-control or cohort studies with adequate genotype distribution or minor allele frequency (MAF) were identified by searching the PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases up to December, 2018. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated to estimate the association between CYP17 rs743572 polymorphism and BPH susceptibility. Results: Pooled MAFs of 13 studies were 37% in Caucasians and 56% in Orientals, respectively. Pooled results of 8 studies suggested that CYP17 rs743572 was not associated with the BPH susceptibility in the overall population (OR = 0.98, 95% CI: 0.80–1.20 for A2 vs. A1; OR = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.79–1.25 for A1/A2 vs. A1/A1; OR = 0.97, 95% CI: 0.62–1.53 for A2/A2 vs. A1/A1). Sensitivity analysis showed the results were robust. Subgroup analysis based on ethnicity suggested that, in Orientals, A2 allele carriers had a 28% lower risk of developing BPH compared with A1 allele carriers, and the risk of BPH is 47% lower in A2/A2 genotype carriers compared with A1/A1 genotype carriers. No significant association was observed in Caucasians. Conclusion: In conclusion, our study indicates a negative association between CYP17 and BPH in Orientals. However, due to limited sample size, the conclusion should be interpreted with caution.

Abstract
Purpose Steroid 5-alpha reductase type 2 (SRD5A2) modifies testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the prostate. Single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the SRD5A2 gene might affect DHT. We sought to understand the relationship of SRD5A2 SNPs to prostate cancer in the Korean population. Materials and Methods Twenty-six common SNPs in the SRD5A2 gene were assessed in 272 prostate cancer cases and 173 controls. Single-locus analyses were conducted by using conditional logistic regression. Additionally, we performed a haplotype analysis for the SRD5A2 SNPs tested. Results Among the 20 SNPs and 4 haplotypes, there were no statistically significant results in the prostate cancer patients and the controls. In the logistic analysis of SRD5A2 polymorphisms with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) criteria, two SNPs (rs508562, rs11675297) and haplotype 1 displayed significant results (odds ratio [OR], 1.76; p=0.05; OR, 1.88-2.02; p=0.01-0.04; OR, 0.59; p=0.02, respectively). rs508562, rs11675297, rs2208532, and haplotype 1 (OR, 1.49; p=0.05; OR, 2.02; p=0.05; OR, 2.01; p=0.04; OR, 0.56-0.64, p=0.03-0.04, respectively) had significant associations with Gleason score. rs508562, rs11675297, and haplotype 1 (OR, 1.41-2.34; p=0.004-0.05; OR, 1.74-1.82; p=0.03-0.05; OR, 0.42-0.67; p=0.0005-0.03, respectively) were significantly associated with clinical stage. Conclusions We conclude that there was no significant association between SRD5A2 SNPs and the risk of prostate cancer in the Korean population. However, we found that some SNPs and 1 haplotype influenced PSA level, Gleason score, and clinical stage.

Abstract
The crucial role of androgens in the development of prostate cancer is well established. The aim of this review is to examine the role of constitutional (germline) and tumor-specific (somatic) polymorphisms within important regulatory genes of prostate cancer. These include genes encoding enzymes of the androgen biosynthetic pathway, the androgen receptor gene, genes that encode proteins of the signal transduction pathways that may have a role in disease progression and survival, and genes involved in prostate cancer angiogenesis. Characterization of deregulated pathways critical to cancer cell growth have lead to the development of new treatments, including the CYP17 inhibitor abiraterone and clinical trials using novel drugs that are ongoing or recently completed [1]. The pharmacogenetics of the drugs used to treat prostate cancer will also be addressed. This review will define how germline polymorphisms are known affect a multitude of pathways, and therefore phenotypes, in prostate cancer etiology, progression, and treatment.

Abstract
Published data on the association between CYP17 rs743572 polymorphism and risk of PC showed inconclusive results. The aim of this study was to further estimate the pooled effect size of rs743572 polymorphism and PC progression via large-scale meta-analysis. We searched the case-control studies of rs743572 polymorphism and PC risk in PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases up to February 2014. Odds ratios (ORs) along with 95 % confidence intervals (CIs) were pooled by means of both fixed effects model and random effects model. A total of 38 publications consisting of 42 studies with 15,735 cases and 17,825 controls were included in this meta-analysis. Overall, no significant association was found between rs743572 polymorphism and PC risk. Stratified analyses by control source and sample size did not provide significant results. However, there was a borderline association in African population under A2A2 versus A1A2 + A1A1 genetic model (OR = 1.39, 95 % CI: 1.01-1.92, P = 0.975, I (2) = 0.0 %). Results from the current meta-analysis suggested that CYP17 rs743572 polymorphism might modify the risk of PC in the subjects of African decent.

Abstract
Steroid 5-α-reductase type 2 (SRD5A2) V89L and A49T polymorphisms are thought to play a crucial role in the androgen synthesis and metabolic pathway, but their associations with prostate cancer risk remain controversial. To provide a more precise estimation of the associations between V89L and A49T polymorphisms and prostate cancer risk, we performed a meta-analysis using all published case-control studies of prostate cancer since January 1995. We used odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) to assess the strength of the association under various genetic models in both overall and stratified analyses. We also calculated the false-positive report probability, the power of the current study, and the observed P value for significant findings. This analysis included 45 eligible studies of a total of 15,562 cases and 15,385 controls, in which no significant associations were found for the V89L polymorphisms under all genetic models. However, small excess prostate cancer risk was associated with the 49T allele in mixed populations compared with the 49A allele (OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.02-1.50), and similar results were observed in Caucasians (OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.01-1.53). The sensitivity analysis further strengthened the validity of these findings without publication bias. Although there was no overall association between V89L and prostate cancer risk, A49T might play a role in the etiology of prostate cancer among Caucasians. Additional large and well-designed studies are warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract
Objective The cytochrome P450 17α-hydroxylase (CYP17) plays a vital role in androgen biosynthesis. A T-to-C polymorphism in the 5′ promoter region of CYP17 has been implicated as a risk factor for prostate cancer, but the results of individual studies are inconclusive or controversial. To derive a more precise estimation of the relationship, we performed an updated meta-analysis from 31 studies based on 27 publications. Methods A comprehensive search was conducted to examine all the eligible studies of CYP17 polymorphism and prostate cancer risk. We used odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to assess the strength of the association. Results Overall, individuals with CC/CT genotype were not associated with prostate cancer risk (CC vs. TT: OR = 1.03, 95% CI = 0.86-1.24, P = 0.72, Pheterogeneity < 0.0001; CT vs. TT: OR = 0.99, 95% CI = 0.87-1.12, P = 0.88, Pheterogeneity = 0.0006). In the stratified analysis by ethnicity, there was a significantly increased risk of prostate cancer among individuals of African descent under the recessive model (OR = 1.56, 95% CI = 1.01-2.39, P = 0.04, Pheterogeneity = 0.65). Conclusion This meta-analysis suggested that CYP17 polymorphism might be associated with prostate cancer risk among individuals of African descent.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The results of recent published studies focusing on CYP17 polymorphisms in prostate cancer (PCa) susceptibility are often conflicting. We performed a meta-analysis based on 38 independent studies to evaluate the association. METHODS Data were collected from the following electronic databases: PubMed, Excerpta Medica Database, and Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, with the last report up to September 2010. Meta-analysis was conducted in a fixed/random effect model. RESULTS Thirty-eight independent studies including 34,782 cases and 38,626 controls on the association of CYP17 gene polymorphisms with PCa risk in different ethnic groups were identified. The meta-analysis was performed for five polymorphisms: rs743572 (A1/A2, 38 studies), rs6162 (C/T, 3 studies), rs619824 (C/A, 4 studies), rs2486758 (T/C, 4 studies), and rs10883782 (A/G, 4 studies). When all groups were pooled, we did not detect the association of rs743572 polymorphism with PCa risk. In the subgroup analysis, a significant association of rs743572 polymorphism and PCa was found in Black population (A2/A2 vs. A1/A1 + A2/A1: OR = 1.70, 95% CI = 1.08-2.69, P = 0.02), but not in Caucasian or Asian population. For other polymorphisms, we found that rs619824 polymorphism was associated with a significant decreased risk of PCa (A vs. C: OR = 0.95, 95% CI = 0.92-0.99, P = 0.01), and rs2486758 polymorphism was associated with a significant increased risk of PCa (C vs. T: OR = 1.07, 95% CI = 1.03-1.12, P = 0.002). CONCLUSION This meta-analysis suggests that rs743572 polymorphism is associated with PCa risk in Black population, but not in Caucasian or Asian population. Moreover, our study suggests that rs619824 and rs2486758 polymorphisms are associated with PCa risk.

Abstract
Prostate cancer is the proliferation of malignant cells in the prostate gland. The HPC2/ELAC2 gene on chromosome 17p11.2 and SRD5A2 gene on chromosome 2p22–23 are predisposing genetic factors. We examined the relationship between Ser217Leu and Ala541Thr polymorphisms of the former gene, and Ala49Thr and Val89Leu polymorphisms of the latter gene to prostate cancer in Turkish men, using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method and appropriate restriction enzymes. The HPC2/ELAC2 gene Ser217-Leu and SRD5A2 gene Ala49Thr polymorphisms were associated with an increased risk of prostate cancer in Turkish men [for the HPC2/ELAC2 gene Ser217Leu polymorphism: odds ratio (OR) 2.7; confidence interval 95% (CI 95%) 1.6–4.8; p 0.000<0.05, and for the SRD5A2 gene Ala49Thr polymorphism: OR 2.4; CI 95% 1.2–4.9; p 0.004<0.05].

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa) formation has been reported to be associated with androgen. Two key steps in the sex steroid synthesis are mediated by the enzyme cytochrome P450c 17α which is encoded in the CYP17 gene. The A2 allele of the CYP17 gene has been thought to be associated with increased functional activity of this steroidogenic enzyme. Consequently, the A2 allele has been examined as a biomarker of individual susceptibility to hormone-related diseases among men. We prospectively assessed the association between the A2 allele of CYP17 and PCa risk among 125 cases and 125 controls in a case-control study. Our aim was to investigate whether a polymorphism of CYP17 gene could be used as a genetic marker for associating PCa. The result revealed a significant association between the CYP17 polymorphic genotypes and PCa. Therefore, CYP17 gene polymorphism is likely contributed to the pathogenesis of PCa but not to disease severity.

Abstract
The steroid-5-alpha-reductase, alpha polypeptide 2 (SRD5A2) gene plays a crucial role in androgen metabolism pathway in human prostate. It encodes SRD5A2 enzyme, which catalyses testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT is the main active structure binding with androgen receptor (AR). After the activation of AR, it further regulates a series of target genes in androgen metabolism pathway. However, no clear consensus has been reached on the association between the SRD5A2 V89L, A49T and TA repeat polymorphisms and prostate cancer (PCa) risk. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis of 31 association studies with 14,726 PCa cases and 15,802 controls. We found no association between PCa and 89L compared with 89V allele [odds ratio (OR) = 1.02, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.98-1.06, P(heterogeneity) = 0.44]. The 49T allele showed a significantly elevated effect on the high stage (Stages III-IV) of PCa risk both under the dominant genetic model (OR = 2.13, 95% CI 1.44-3.15, P(heterogeneity) = 0.65) and in the contrast T versus A allele (OR = 2.06, 95% CI 1.41-3.02, P(heterogeneity) = 0.69). There was a significantly decreased association between PCa and long TA repeat as compared versus short TA repeat (OR = 0.86, 95% CI 0.74-1.00, P(heterogeneity) = 0.79). No significant between-study heterogeneity was found in all subjects under four genetic models (dominant model, recessive model, allele comparison and homozygosity comparison) for these three polymorphisms, respectively, so the fixed effects model was used to pool the result. Our result indicated that carriers of 49T might improve the risk of PCa in higher stages (Stages III-IV), carriers of long TA repeat might decrease the risk of PCa and 89L may not be an important risk factor for PCa. However, due to the limited sample sizes, this meta-analysis did not achieve sufficiently conclusive results. Still more well-designed studies should be performed to clarify the role of these three polymorphisms in the development of PCa.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing studies investigating the association between steroid 5-alpha reductase type II gene polymorphism at codon 89 (SRD5A2 V89L) and susceptibility to prostate cancer (PCa) confer inconsistent results. To precisely estimate the relationship with more statistical power, a meta-analysis was performed. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted to identify all case-control studies investigating such an association. Odds ratio (OR) and its 95% confidence interval (CI) were used to evaluate the size effect. RESULTS Twenty-five eligible reports were identified including 8,615 cases/9,089 controls in 33 comparisons. In overall analysis, no significant associations were found in all genetic models. Subgroup analyses by ethnicity revealed that small excess PCa risks were observed in dominant model (OR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.03-1.19 for (LL + VL) vs. VV; P < 0.01; P(heterogeneity) = 0.49) and L allele frequency comparison (OR, 1.09; 1.03-1.15 for L allele frequency; P < 0.01; P(heterogeneity) = 0.07) in Europeans. Meanwhile, SRD5A2 V89L polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased PCa risk in men aged < or =65 under the co-dominant (OR, 1.70; 95% CI, 1.09-2.66 for LL vs. VV; P = 0.02; P(heterogeneity) = 0.31) and recessive (OR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.14-2.68 for LL vs. (VV + VL); P = 0.01; P(heterogeneity) = 0.12) models. However, no significant associations were found in Asians and Africans. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests SRD5A2 V89L polymorphism could play a low-penetrant role in PCa risk among Europeans and individuals younger than 65 years. Additional well-designed studies are warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract
Steroid 5-alpha-reductase type 2 (SRD5a2) is a critical enzyme in androgen metabolism. Two polymorphisms in the SRD5a2 gene, V89L (rs523349) and A49T (rs9282858), have been studied for associations with prostate cancer risk, with conflicting results. The authors conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis (1997-2007) to examine these associations and compared the results with findings from genome-wide association studies of prostate cancer. The meta-analysis included 24 case-control studies (10,088 cases and 10,120 controls for V89L and 4,998 cases and 5,451 controls for A49T). The authors found that prostate cancer was not associated with V89L (L allele vs. V allele: odds ratio = 0.99, 95% confidence interval: 0.94, 1.05) and was probably not associated with A49T (T allele vs. A allele: odds ratio = 1.10, 95% confidence interval: 0.86, 1.40). These results could have been distorted by spectrum-of-disease bias, convenience sampling of cases and controls, genotype misclassification, and/or confounding. Neither V89L nor A49T was included in microarray chips used for published genome-wide association studies. Analysis of well-designed population-based studies with pathway-based arrays containing common genetic variants could be useful for identifying genetic factors in prostate cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND CYP17A1 is currently a target for total androgen blockade in advanced prostate cancer (CaP) patients. After castration, or removal of testicular androgens, CYP17A1 can act as a rate-limiting enzyme in androgen synthesis from cholesterol or other adrenal precursors within the tumor microenvironment ultimately contributing to disease progression. Herein we provide evidence that CYP17A1 could also be a mediator of cell-to-cell communication within the CaP tumor microenvironment. METHODS CYP17A1 expression was evaluated by immunohistochemical analysis of human tumor sections and Western blot analysis of CaP patients' serum and exosome isolates. CYP17A1 activity assays were conducted in human serum (and positive control human liver and kidney microsomes) using progesterone as a precursor and an LC-MS endpoint. RESULTS These studies revealed that the expression pattern of CYP17A1 is typical of a secretory protein as it is localized to the luminal pole of the cells in exocrine secretory mode. CYP17A1 is expressed in human serum and in fact is elevated in the serum of CaP patients as compared to healthy controls. Serum CYP17A1 activity could not be confirmed, however, verification of CYP17A1 expression in exosomes suggests a role in cell-to-cell communication within the tumor microenvironment. CONCLUSIONS CYP17A1 is a crucial enzyme for de novo androgen synthesis within the tumor microenvironment after removal of testicular androgens by castration. We provide evidence for a novel role for CYP17A1 in serum and further reiterate the importance of targeting this enzyme in CaP progression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), whose genetic basis is not completely well understood, is the most common endocrine disorder in women and it typically develops during adolescence. The aim of this study is to investigate the possible association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of FSHR, CYP17, CYP1A1, CAPN10, INSR, SERPINE1 genes and PCOS in adolescent girls. METHODS DNA samples from forty-four adolescent girls with PCOS and 50 healthy controls were analyzed by PCR-RFLP and direct DNA sequencing to determine the genotypic frequency of 17 different polymorphic loci on the FSHR (A307T, N680S), CYP17 (-34 T/C), CYP1A1 (T6235C), CAPN10 (44, 43, 19, 63), INSR (exon 17 C/T), SERPINE1 (4G/5G) genes. Genotyping of exon 12 (six polymorphisms) and intron 12 (one polymorphism) of INSR gene by direct DNA sequencing was performed for the first time in this study. RESULTS No significant differences were observed in the genotype and allele distributions of above mentioned polymorphisms between cases and control groups. CONCLUSION Our data does not support an association between SNPs of FSHR, CYP17, CYP1A1, CAPN10, INSR, SERPINE1 genes and susceptibility to PCOS or related traits in Turkish adolescent girls.

Abstract
The steroid 5-alpha reductase type II gene (SRD5A2) encodes the enzyme which converts testosterone (T) to the more active androgen dihydrotestosterone. A non-synonymous single-nucleotide polymorphism, A49T (rs9282858), in SRD5A2 has been implicated in prostate cancer risk; however, results have been inconsistent. In 1999, we reported a strong association between the A49T variant and prostate cancer risk among African-Americans and Latinos in the Hawaii-Los Angeles Multiethnic Cohort (MEC). We report here an updated analysis of MEC data including the five major ethnic groups of the MEC, an increased sample size, improved genotyping technology and a comprehensive meta-analysis of the published literature. We found a non-statistically significant positive association between prostate cancer risk and carrying either the AT or TT genotype [odds ratio (OR) = 1.16, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.79-1.69] in the MEC. This finding is in contrast to our previous results of ORs of 3.28 and 2.50 for the association between prostate cancer risk and the variant in African-American and Latino men, respectively; this can be accounted for by genotyping error in our earlier study. Meta-analysis of the published literature, including the current MEC data, shows a summary OR of 1.13 (95% CI 0.95-1.34) for the A49T variant with prostate cancer risk among sporadic, unselected cases. After evaluating more than 6000 cases and 6000 controls, there is little evidence of a role for the SRD5A2 A49T variant in prostate cancer risk. Overall, this report highlights the importance of rigorous genotyping quality control measures and replication efforts in genetic association studies.

Abstract
We investigated the association of prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) with genetic polymorphisms in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) (-158 G/A) and 17-hydroxylase (CYP17) (-34 T/C) genes in a Turkish population. In this study, we investigated the distribution of these polymorphisms in 148 PCa patients, 136 BPH patients, and 102 healthy individuals as controls. The polymorphisms were analyzed using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay. Genotype and allele frequencies were calculated, and their associations with PCa or BPH risk are assayed. The frequency of PSA gene GA and GG genotypes was significantly higher in PCa patients than in controls (p = 0.017 and p = 0.019, respectively). GG genotype was also associated with BPH (p = 0.033). In a case analysis, according to Gleason score, the association of PSA gene GG genotype with Gleason score >7 was near to statistical significance (odds ratio, 2.94; 95% confidence interval, 0.95-9.28). There was also an association between CYP17 polymorphism and BPH (p = 0.004). No association was observed between PCa and CYP17 gene polymorphism. These data demonstrate that PSA gene promoter variation may play a significant role in the development of PCa and BPH, and that CYP17 gene polymorphism may be associated with BPH in the Turkish population studied.
