Protein network and pathway analysis in a pharmacogenetic study of cyclosporine treatment response in Greek patients with psoriasis. THE PHARMACOGENOMICS JOURNAL 2023; 23:8-13. [PMID: 36229649 DOI: 10.1038/s41397-022-00291-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/22/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/22/2022] [Indexed: 02/15/2023]
Abstract
Although cyclosporine comprises a well-established systemic therapy for psoriasis, patients show important heterogeneity in their treatment response. The aim of our study was the pharmacogenetic analysis of 200 Greek patients with psoriasis based on the cyclosporine pathway related protein-protein interaction (PPI) network, reconstructed through the PICKLE meta-database. We genotyped 27 single nucleotide polymorphisms, mapped to 22 key protein nodes of the cyclosporine pathway, via the utilization of the iPLEX®GOLD panel of the MassARRAY® System. Single-SNP analyses showed statistically significant associations between CALM1 rs12885713 (P = 0.0108) and MALT1 rs2874116 (P = 0.0006) polymorphisms with positive response to cyclosporine therapy after correction for multiple comparisons, with the haplotype analyses further enhancing the predictive value of rs12885713 as a pharmacogenetic biomarker for cyclosporine therapy (P = 0.0173). Our findings have the potential to improve our prediction of cyclosporine efficacy and safety in psoriasis patients, as well as provide the framework for the pharmacogenetics of biological therapies in complex diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To identify, critically evaluate and synthesize the evidence obtained from systematic reviews on the association between genetic polymorphisms and osteoarthritis (OA) development. METHODS Considering gene polymorphisms associated with OA susceptibility (risk or protection), a comprehensive search was conducted in the following databases, without date or language restrictions: MEDLINE, via Pubmed; Embase, via Elsevier; Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, via Wiley; Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde. Gray literature was also searched through the OpenGrey database. The AMSTAR-2 (Assessing the Methodological Quality of Systematic Reviews) was used to assess the methodological quality of the included systematic reviews. RESULTS We included 14 systematic reviews of case-control studies comparing individuals with a radiographic diagnosis of all OA types and healthy controls, all submitted to the genetic examination of different polymorphisms in candidate genes. Meta-analyses showed a protective effect against knee and hand OA associated with GDF-5 gene (odds ratio [OR] 0.90, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.85-0.95), and knee OA with ESRα gene (OR 0.63, 95% CI 1.26-1.97). SMAD3 gene was associated with knee and hip OA risk (OR 1.21. 95% CI 1.07-1.38) and MMP-1 gene was associated with temporomandibular OA (OR 1.58. 95% CI 1.26-1.97). CONCLUSION Based on low-quality to critically-low-quality systematic reviews, some gene polymorphisms seem to be associated with risk or protection for OA. Further high-quality studies are needed to validate these hypotheses, contribute to disease understanding, and possibly help the decision-making related to early diagnosis and treatment options for OA.

Abstract
Background Idiopathic Scoliosis (IS) is the most common spinal deformity in adolescents, accounting for 80% of all spinal deformities. However, the etiology remains uncertain in most cases, being identified as Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). IS treatments range from observation and sport to bracing or surgery. Several risk factors including sex and familiarity, have been linked with IS. Although there are still many uncertainties regarding the cause of this pathology, several studies report a greater incidence of the defect in families in which at least one other first degree relative is affected. This study systematically reviews the available literature to identify the most significant genes or variants related to the development and onset of IS. Methods The research question was formulated using a PIOS approach on the following databases: Medline, Embase, Cinahl, Scopus, Web of Science and Google Scholar. The search was performed from July to August 2021, and articles from the inception of the database to August 2021 were searched. Results 24 of the 919 initially identified studies were included in the present review. The 24 included studies observed a total of 16,316 cases and 81,567 controls. All the considered studies stated either the affected gene and/or specific SNPs. CHD7, SH2B1, ESR, CALM1, LBX1, MATN1, CHL1, FBN1 and FBN2 genes were associated with IS development. Conclusions Although association can be found in some candidate genes the field of research regarding genetic association with the onset of IS still requires more information.

Abstract
AIM To identify associations among allelic variants of the genes FTO, ABCA1, ADRB3, and PPARG with anthropometric and biochemical traits, metabolic diseases (obesity, T2D or metabolic syndrome) in an adult population from Northwest Mexico. METHODS Blood samples were collected from 846 subjects including 266 normal weight subjects, 285 with obesity, and 295 with T2D. Of the 846 persons in the study, 365 presented metabolic syndrome diagnostic criteria. Anthropometric and biochemical traits were recorded and 4 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs): FTO rs9939609 A-allele, ABCA1 rs9282541 A-allele, ADRB3 rs4994 G-allele, and PPARG rs1801282 G-allele were genotyped by real-time PCR. RESULTS FTO rs9939609 A-allele was significantly associated with obesity (p: 8.3 × 10-4), and metabolic syndrome (p: 0.001), but no individual SNPs were significantly associated with T2D. Finally, the cumulative risk of the four SNPs was significantly associated with obesity (p: 1.95 × 10-4). CONCLUSION Associations in FTO, ABCA, ADRB3, and PPARG SNPs presented in this study with obesity and metabolic syndrome could represent a risk for developing metabolic diseases in Northwest Mexican adult subjects.

Abstract
Background and aim Osteoarthritis (OA) is a multiple factorial disease with unidentified specific markers. The alternate method such as biochemical and genetic markers for the diagnosis of osteoarthritis is an undeniable need of the current era. In the present study, we aimed to investigate the association of interleukin-6 (IL-6)(IL-6-174G/C), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-beta1-29C/T), and calmodulin 1 gene-16C/T (CALM1-16C/T) polymorphism in clinically definite Pakistani OA patients and matching controls. Methods The study design was based on biochemical analysis of OA via serum hyaluronic acid (HA) enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) test and genetic analysis based on amplification refractory mutation system (ARMS) PCR. Statistical evaluations of allele probabilities were carried through chi-squared test. This study includes 295 subjects including 100 OA patients, 105 OA susceptible, and 90 controls. Results HA levels obtained were distinct for all the populations: patients with a mean value of ± 5.15, susceptible with mean value of ± 2.27, and control with mean value of ± 0.50. The prevalent genotypes in OA were GG genotype for IL-6-174G/C, CT genotypes for TGF β1-29C/T, and TT genotype for CALM1-16C/T polymorphism. A significant P value of 0.0152 is obtained as a result of the comparison among the patients and controls on the number of individuals possessing the disease-associated genotypes. Conclusions The positive association of GG genotype for IL-6-174G/C, TT genotype for CALM1-16C/T polymorphism in OA while high prevalence of CT TGF β1-29 C/T genotypes in susceptible population in our study group implies these polymorphisms can serve as susceptible marker to OA and genetic factors for screening OA patients in Pakistan. There might be other factors that may influence disease susceptibility. However, further investigations on larger population are required to determine the consequences of genetic variations for prediagnosis of OA.

Polymorphisms and alterations in gene expression associated with rotator cuff tear and healing following surgical repair: a systematic review. J Shoulder Elbow Surg 2021; 30:200-215. [PMID: 32827653 DOI: 10.1016/j.jse.2020.07.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2020] [Revised: 07/20/2020] [Accepted: 07/26/2020] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Rotator cuff tears (RCTs) are a common cause of shoulder disability, yet both conservative and surgical treatment strategies can lead to poor results in some patient populations. Enhanced understanding of the genetic processes associated with RCTs can assist in the development of more effective management options and help predict individual responses to surgical treatment. This systematic review analyzes the current literature on the genetic footprint associated with RCTs and interprets these findings to enhance the current understanding of RCT pathogenesis, potential treatment regimens, and prognostic biomarkers of outcomes after surgical repair. METHODS A systematic search of the Embase, PubMed, and Web of Science electronic databases was performed. Medical Subject Headings (MeSH) and Emtree index terms were formulated from the concept terms "rotator cuff tear," "genetics," and "human," and synonyms of these concepts were applied to the Web of Science search. Articles were screened against predefined inclusion and exclusion criteria. Eligible studies compared gene expression patterns and genetic polymorphisms between cases (with RCTs) and controls (without RCTs). Quality assessment was performed with studies being rated as high, moderate, or poor quality. A modified best-evidence synthesis was applied, and studies were determined to be of strong, moderate, or limited evidence. RESULTS The search identified 259 articles. Of these studies, 26 were eligible for review. Two studies were considered poor quality; 15 studies, moderate quality; and 9 studies, high quality. Analysis of these articles found that RCTs were associated with alterations in genes that code for the extracellular matrix, cell apoptosis, immune and inflammatory responses, and growth factor pathways. In particular, there was strong evidence of a significant association between RCTs and the genes MMP3, TNC, and ESRRB. Strong evidence of an association between BMP5 upregulation and successful healing after surgical repair was also found. CONCLUSION This review provides strong evidence of an genetic association with RCTs. The genotype and gene expression patterns detailed within this review can assist in deciphering the biological mechanisms resulting in RCTs, as well as predicting an individual's response to surgical repair. Future research could investigate whether manipulating these genes-or their associated signaling pathways-could assist in RCT healing and whether genetic biomarkers could be used clinically to predict patient outcomes after surgical repair of RCTs.
