Abstract
Novel treatment targets must be discovered to improve the results for patients with prostate cancer, which continues to be a significant worldwide health problem. Growth Arrest-Specific 5 (GAS5) is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) that has emerged as a promising target. GAS5 is a non-coding RNA that is a tumour suppressor in many different cancers by reducing cell proliferation and increasing apoptosis. GAS5 influences cell cycle control and apoptosis via interactions with important signalling pathways and microRNAs, as has been shown by recent studies. Furthermore, GAS5 has attracted interest for its diagnostic and prognostic potential in prostate cancer. GAS5 expression is a promising biomarker for disease classification and individualized treatment approaches because of its association with clinicopathological characteristics such as tumour stage, Gleason score, and metastatic potential. Preclinical models have revealed encouraging anticancer benefits from experimental techniques employing GAS5 overexpression or synthetic analogues, indicating the possibility of translational treatments. Whether GAS5 can be used as a diagnostic biomarker and therapeutic target might lead to more effective and individualized ways to fight prostate cancer, improving patient outcomes and quality of life. To utilize its potential for therapy and establish it as a useful addition to the clinical arsenal against this pervasive malignancy, more investigation into the complex molecular pathways of GAS5 in prostate cancer is essential. This review highlights the recent advancements and insights into the role of GAS5 in prostate cancer pathogenesis and progression.

Zhang P, Sha Z. Association of the lncRNA-GAS5 promoter region rs145204276 polymorphism with sevoflurane maintenance anesthesia outcomes on patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Saudi Med J 2023; 44:137-144. [PMID: 36773978 PMCID: PMC9987708 DOI: 10.15537/smj.2023.44.2.20220617] [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: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 02/13/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To further investigate how sevoflurane affects the oxidative stress injury (OSI) in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). METHODS A prospective cohort study was carried out at Shandong Provincial Third Hospital, Jinan, China on 82 gallstone patients who underwent LC, with sevoflurane maintenance during surgery. Genotyping analysis of the rs145204276 polymorphism was performed using the TaqMan platform. Oxidative stress injury and liver injury parameters were also examined. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced macrophages, which were challenged with sevoflurane, propofol, or the lncRNA-GAS5 overexpressing plasmid, were used to evaluate the effect of Sevoflurane on lncRNA-GAS5-mediated macrophage polarization. RESULTS At TM1 and TM2, the levels of OSI markers and long noncoding (lnc) RNA-GAS5 were not obviously different, whereas at the TM3 time point, these indices were significantly different between the Del-Sevoflurane and Del-Propofol subgroups. These indices were not different between the Ins-sevoflurane and Ins-Propofol subgroups at any time point. Cell-based experiments demonstrated that Sevoflurane could increased the lncRNA-GAS5 level in LPS-induced Del-macrophages (p=0.0058), but Propofol did not have this effect (p=0.847). Both Sevoflurane and Propofol did not have the effect on lncRNA-GAS5 level in LPS-induced Ins-macrophages (p=0.321 and p=0.822, respectively). CONCLUSION Sevoflurane maintenance can decrease OSI during LC in the Del genotype of the rs145204276 polymorphism. The Del genotype facilitates lncRNA-GAS5 up-regulation under Sevoflurane exposure and therefore decrease the extent of M1 macrophage polarization.

Impact of LncRNA GAS5 Genetic Variants and the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Phenotypes on the Clinicopathological Characteristics of Lung Adenocarcinoma Patients. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:9971. [PMID: 36011604 PMCID: PMC9407922 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph19169971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2022] [Revised: 08/10/2022] [Accepted: 08/11/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
The aim of the current study was to evaluate the combined effect of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in long non-coding RNA growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) and the phenotypes of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on the clinicopathological characteristics of lung adenocarcinoma. The present study examined the relationship between the GAS5 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs145204276 Ins/Del, rs55829688 T/C) and the clinicopathological factors in 539 lung adenocarcinoma patients with or without EGFR mutations. We found that the genotype distributions of the two GAS5 SNPs between different EGFR genotypes were similar after adjusting for age, gender and smoking history. The GAS5 SNP rs145204276 Ins/Del + Del/Del illustrated a higher distribution with an advanced tumor stage (p = 0.030), larger tumor T status (p = 0.019), positive lymph node status (p = 0.014) and distal metastases (p = 0.011) in the EGFR wild type group. In the subgroup analysis of the EGFR wild type population, the presence of GAS5 SNP rs145204276 Ins/Del + Del/Del was correlated to an advanced tumor stage (p = 0.014) and distal metastases (p = 0.020) in non-smokers. In conclusion, these data indicate that the GAS5 SNP rs145204276 variant may help predict tumor stage, lymph node metastasis and distal metastases in patients with EGFR wild type lung adenocarcinoma.

Genes (Basel) 2022; 13:genes13040584. [PMID: 35456391 PMCID: PMC9029547 DOI: 10.3390/genes13040584] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2022] [Revised: 03/23/2022] [Accepted: 03/24/2022] [Indexed: 12/12/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this work was to appraise the potential associations of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of long non-coding RNA growth arrest-specific 5 (GAS5) with diabetic retinopathy (DR) in a diabetes mellitus (DM) population. Two loci of the GAS5 SNPs (rs55829688 and rs145204276) were genotyped via TaqMan allelic discrimination in 449 non-DR patients and 273 DR subjects. The SNP rs145204276 Del/Del showed a significantly higher distribution in the DR group compared to the non-DR group (AOR: 2.487, 95% CI: 1.424–4.344, p = 0.001). During subgroup analyses, the non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy (NPDR) subgroup demonstrated a significantly higher ratio of the SNP rs145204276 Del/Del (AOR: 2.917, 95% CI: 1.574–5.406, p = 0.001) and Ins/Del + Del/Del (AOR: 1.242, 95% CI: 1.016–1.519, p = 0.034) compared to the non-DR population, while the proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) subgroup did not reveal significant differences in either SNP rs145204276 or rs55829688 distributions compared to the non-DR group. Furthermore, patients with a GAS5 SNP rs145204276 Del/Del showed a significantly shorter DM duration than the wild type (Ins/Ins) (p = 0.021). In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that the GAS5 SNP rs145204276 Del/Del variant is associated with an increased susceptibility to DR in DM patients, particularly in those patients with NPDR.
