Abstract
PURPOSE Currently, the significance of CDKN2A/B mutations in the pathogenesis and prognosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is inconclusive. In this study, we analyzed the genetic and clinical features of children with CDKN2A/B mutations in ALL. In addition, we evaluated the expression and significance of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) in serum and explored their role in the susceptibility of childhood ALL. METHODS We sequenced CDKN2A/B in the peripheral blood of 120 children with ALL and 100 healthy children with physical examination. The levels of CD4+ T, CD8+ T, and NK cells were measured by flow cytometry (FCM). Furthermore, the expression of PD-1 and PD-L1 was detected by ELISA. RESULTS We found 32 cases of CDKN2A rs3088440 and 11 of CDKN2B rs2069426 in 120 ALL children. Children with ALL in the CDKN2A rs3088440 were more likely to have hepatosplenomegaly (P = 0.019) and high risk (P = 0.014) than the wild group. In contrast, CDKN2B rs2069426 was more likely to develop lymph node metastasis (P = 0.017). The level of PD-L1 in the serum of ALL children was significantly higher than that of the control group, and there was no significant difference in PD-1 (P < 0.001). Additionally, children with CDKN2A rs3088440 had reduced CD8+ T cell counts than the wild group (P = 0.039). CONCLUSION CDKN2A rs3088440 and CDKN2B rs2069426 may be related to the occurrence and development of ALL in Chinese children. Additionally, PD-1/PD-L1 may be involved in the immune escape process of ALL, which is expected to become a new target for the treatment of the disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Yemen crisis, which has been going on for more than six years, represents one of the most gruesome human plights in the modern history, especially children. OBJECTIVES This research aimed to present a comprehensive view of Yemeni children's studies during the ongoing war period, to come up with a comprehensive base that concerns humanitarians, researchers, decision-makers, and general public at large about the reality of the predicament of Yemeni child. METHOD We searched databases and identified 373 articles, of which 68 were included in this review. Review of literature between 2014 and 2020 is taken from academic sources, multilateral organizations, donors, and governmental and non-governmental organizations. The data are analyzed by date and governorates. RESULTS We chose 68 articles and divided them according to the diseases and health conditions as follows: infectious diseases (15 studies), non-infectious diseases (10 studies), blood-related diseases (7 studies), oral and dental problems (12 studies), accidents and injuries (2 studies), health system (16 studies), family and community (6 studies). Moreover, the studies were divided geographically as follows: 7 studies that were almost comprehensive for all governorates; additional studies were conducted for Amanat Al Asimah (21 studies), Taiz (12 studies), Aden and Al Hudaydah (7 studies for each), Dhamar and Ibb (6 studies for each), Abyan and Lahij (2 study for each). As for Al Bayda, Marib, Sana'a, and Socotra, each of them had one study. CONCLUSION Our assessment revealed that the ongoing Yemen crisis is underrated and largely neglected. The studies conducted so far do match the ground reality both in terms of inclusiveness and numbers.

Identification of Genomic Variants Associated with the Risk of Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in Native Americans from Brazilian Amazonia. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12060856. [PMID: 35743641 PMCID: PMC9224820 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12060856] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2022] [Revised: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
A number of genomic variants related to native American ancestry may be associated with an increased risk of developing Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), which means that Latin American and hispanic populations from the New World may be relatively susceptible to this disease. However, there has not yet been any comprehensive investigation of the variants associated with susceptibility to ALL in traditional Amerindian populations from Brazilian Amazonia. We investigated the exomes of the 18 principal genes associated with susceptibility to ALL in samples of 64 Amerindians from this region, including cancer-free individuals and patients with ALL. We compared the findings with the data on populations representing five continents available in the 1000 Genomes database. The variation in the allele frequencies found between the different groups was evaluated using Fisher’s exact test. The analyses of the exomes of the Brazilian Amerindians identified 125 variants, seven of which were new. The comparison of the allele frequencies between the two Amerindian groups analyzed in the present study (ALL patients vs. cancer-free individuals) identified six variants (rs11515, rs2765997, rs1053454, rs8068981, rs3764342, and rs2304465) that may be associated with susceptibility to ALL. These findings contribute to the identification of genetic variants that represent a potential risk for ALL in Amazonian Amerindian populations and might favor precision oncology measures.

Abstract
Objective Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is one of the most common cancers in children for which the exact pathogenesis is not yet known. Single-nucleotide variants (SNVs) in different DNA repair genes are reported to be associated with ALL risk. This study aimed to determine the association between XRCC1 (rs1799782) and NBN (rs1805794, rs709816) SNVs and childhood ALL risk in a sample of the Iranian population. Fifty children with ALL and 50 age- and sex-matched healthy children were included in this case–control study. Genotyping of the mentioned SNVs was done by high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis. Results The prevalence of all three SNVs in XRCC1 and NBN genes did not differ between the patient and control groups, and these polymorphisms were not associated with childhood ALL risk (P > 0.05). HRM was a practical method for the detection of SNVs in XRCC1 and NBN genes. We found no significant association between XRCC1 (rs1799782) and NBN (rs1805794, rs709816) SNVs and childhood ALL risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many studies have shown that IKAROS family zinc finger 1 (IKZF1) rs4132601 polymorphism is strongly linked to acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in children, but their conclusions have been inconsistent. OBJECTIVE This meta-analysis is set out to investigate the association between IKZF1 rs4132601 polymorphism and its susceptibility to childhood ALL. DATA AND METHODS On the basis of inclusion criteria, PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, CNKI, China Wanfang, VIP, and other databases were searched from the time of the establishment of the library database to December 2019 for all case-control studies. Stata 15.0 was applied for meta-analysis to calculate the combined odds ratio (OR) value and 95% confidence interval (CI) of each genotype at IKZF1 rs4132601. Subgroup analysis done by ethnicity, sensitivity analysis, and publication bias assessment was further performed. RESULTS Nine pieces of literature was included in this meta-analysis, including 2281 children with ALL and 2923 controls. There were significant differences in the allelic model (T vs. G: combined OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.68-0.82, P<0.05) in both Asian and Caucasian children. In addition to this, there were statistically significant differences in the dominant, homozygous and heterozygous genetic model in both Asian and Caucasian children. The difference was significant in the recessive genetic model (TT vs. TG+GG: combined OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.67-0.84) in Caucasian children, but not in Asian children (combined OR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.70-1.04, P>0.05). CONCLUSION There is a strong correlation between IKZF1 rs4132601 polymorphism and ALL in children. Compared with the G allele, T alleles can lower the risk of childhood ALL, and TT, TT+TG and TG genotypes can also reduce the risk of ALL in children.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC), which includes the development of cancer from the colon or rectum, is one of the highly prevalent cancers in the populations of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) in India. However, case-control genetic association studies on CRC are lacking in this population. Various genome-wide association studies have previously shown that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the AT-rich interaction domain 5B (ARID5B) gene located on chromosome 10q21.2 contribute substantially to the development of colorectal cancer. The association between ARID5B and CRC risk in north Indian population groups is still unknown. To understand the role of ARID5B SNPs in CRC in the population of J&K, we designed a case-control study to investigate the association of the cancer susceptibility variant rs10740055 of ARID5B with CRC in the population of J&K. The study included 180 cases and 390 healthy controls. Genotyping of the rs10740055 variant was performed by RT-PCR using the TaqMan assay technique. Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium of the variant was assessed using the chi-squared test. The allele- and genotype-specific risks were estimated by odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The rs10740055 variant showed a higher risk for colorectal cancer with an OR of 3.35 (1.99-5.65 at 95% CI) and P = 0.000005 corrected for age, gender, ethnicity, BMI, alcohol intake and smoking. Our results indicate that the A allele of rs10740055 imparts risk to the population and also that a larger sample size is needed for further statistical validation. The association of other variants in other ARID family genes should also be tested as their role cannot be ruled out.

Abstract
IMPORTANCE LIM domain only 1 (LMO1) gene polymorphisms were previously found to be implicated in the risk of several cancers. No available studies were performed regarding the predisposing effect of LMO1 gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on central nervous system (CNS) tumor risk. OBJECTIVE We aimed to determine whether the LMO1 gene SNPs were associated with the risk of CNS tumor by applying a case-control study with 191 cases and 248 controls in China. METHODS The contributions of LMO1 gene SNPs to the risk of CNS tumor was evaluated by multinomial logistic regression. RESULTS Based on the calculations of odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI), we failed to detect a significant relationship between each LMO1 gene SNP (rs110419 A>G, rs4758051 G>A, rs10840002 A>G, rs204938 A>G, and rs2168101 G>T) and CNS tumor risk, respectively. A negative association was also found in the combined effects on these five SNPs and CNS tumor risk. The stratification analysis further demonstrated the individuals with rs204938 AG/GG genotype confer to increased risk of CNS tumor compared with those with an AA genotype in males (OR: 1.74, 95% CI: 1.01-2.98, P = 0.046). INTERPRETATION We concluded that LMO1 gene SNPs may not strong enough to influence the risk of CNS tumor in Chinese children. More studies are required to verify this association.

Environ Health Prev Med 2021; 26:2. [PMID: 33397280 PMCID: PMC7784308 DOI: 10.1186/s12199-020-00920-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2020] [Accepted: 11/25/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
Objectives We performed an updated meta-analysis to clarify the relationship between the CEBPE rs2239633 polymorphism and the childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (CALL) susceptibility. Methods All the case-control studies were updated on October 5, 2020, through Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) electronic database. The heterogeneity in the study was tested by the Q test and I2, and then the random ratio or fixed effect was utilized to merge the odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). We also performed sensitivity analysis to estimate the impact of individual studies on aggregate estimates. Publication bias was investigated by using funnel plot and Egger’s regression test. All statistical analyses were performed using Stata 12.0. Results A total of 20 case-control studies were selected, including 7014 patients and 16,428 controls. There was no association of CEBPE rs2239633 polymorphism with CALL (CC vs CT + TT: OR = 1.08, 95% CI = 0.94–1.26; CC + CT vs TT: OR = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.94–1.30; C vs T: OR = 1.02, 95% CI = 0.92–1.13). In the subgroup analysis by ethnicity, there is no significant association of this polymorphism and CALL risks among Asian and Caucasian populations in the three genetic models (CC vs CT + TT, CC + CT vs TT, and C vs T). Conclusion This meta-analysis found no significant association between the CEBPE rs2239633 polymorphism and susceptibility to CALL.

Abstract
(IKZF1) rs4132601 and rs11978267 are common gene polymorphisms and have been associated with the risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. However, these associations are less evident in races and/or ethnicities other than European and Hispanic. Therefore, we investigated the association between these single-nucleotide polymorphisms and acute lymphoblastic leukemia susceptibility and disease outcome. Real-time polymerase chain reaction typing was performed for IKZF1 rs4132601 and rs11978267 for 128 pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (pALL), 45 adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (aALL), and 436 healthy controls. The G allele-containing and G-containing genotypes (GG+GT) of rs4132601 were significantly higher in pALL (P=0.003, odds ratio [OR]=1.65, 0.009, OR=1.42, respectively) and aALL (P=0.016, OR=1.81 and 0.011, OR=1.61, respectively). However, the GG haplotype was associated with the risk of pALL (P=0.044), the GA haplotype was associated with the risk of aALL (P=0.007). In aALL, the GG genotype of rs4132601 was associated with absence of remission and poor overall survival (P=0.003 and 0.041, respectively). The IKZF1 rs4132601 single-nucleotide polymorphism can be considered a susceptibility risk factor for the development of pALL and aALL in the studied cohort of Egyptian patients. The GG genotype of IKZF1 rs4132601 may be a risk factor for poor outcome in aALL patients.

IKZF1 genetic variants rs4132601 and rs11978267 and acute lymphoblastic leukemia risk in Tunisian children: a case-control study. BMC MEDICAL GENETICS 2019; 20:159. [PMID: 31604453 PMCID: PMC6788013 DOI: 10.1186/s12881-019-0900-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2019] [Accepted: 09/30/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Associations between IKZF1 gene variants and Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) was recently reported. We examined whether the common IKZF1 polymorphisms rs4132601 T/G and rs111978267 A/G are associated with ALL among a Tunisian pediatric cohort. METHODS This case-control study involved 170 patients with ALL and 150 control subjects. SNP genotyping was performed by TaqMan® SNP Genotyping Assay. RESULTS The minor allele G of IKZF1 gene polymorphism rs4132601 T/G was significantly higher in ALL cases than in control subjects (P = 0.029), with 1.54-fold increased risk of ALL. The association of rs4132601 with ALL was seen under co-dominant (P = 0.009), recessive (P = 0.006), and additive (P = 0.027) genetic models, of which the co-dominant (P = 0.027) and recessive (P = 0.027) association remained significant after adjusting for covariates, and False Discovery Rate correction. In contrast, no association was noted for rs111978267 variant. Two-locus (rs4132601-rs11978267) IKZF1 haplotype analysis demonstrated association of GA (P = 0.053), with increased ALL risk [OR (95% CI) = 1.58 (1.00-2.51)], which remained significant after controlling for key covariates [aP = 0.046; aOR (95% CI) = 1.61 (1.01-2.57)]. CONCLUSION We demonstrated the association of IKZF1 polymorphism rs4132601 T/G with increased risk of ALL among Tunisian pediatric cohort, with altered phenotypic changes among ALL patients.

Association of the independent polymorphisms in CDKN2A with susceptibility of acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Biosci Rep 2018; 38:BSR20180331. [PMID: 29654170 PMCID: PMC6019384 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20180331] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2018] [Revised: 04/04/2018] [Accepted: 04/09/2018] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children, and alterations in CDKN2A were considered to play an important role on leukemogenesis. Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at CDKN2A locus were identified to impact on ALL susceptibility via genome wide association studies, and followed by multiple subsequent replication studies at the specific hits. Here, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to re-evaluate the association of both SNPs (rs3731217 and rs3731249) with ALL susceptibility by gathering the data from 24 independent studies, totally containing 7922 cases/21503 controls for rs3731217 and 6295 cases/24191 controls for rs3731249. Both SNPs were significantly associated with ALL risk (odds ratio [OR] = 0.72 and 2.26 respectively), however, exhibit race-specific pattern. In summary, our meta-analysis indicated that two SNPs at CDKN2A locus are associated with ALL susceptibility independently mainly in Caucasians. Future large-scale studies are required to validate the associations in other ethnicities.
