Abstract
Introduction: Research has revealed that the tumor microenvironment (TME) is associated with the progression of malignancy. The combination of meaningful prognostic biomarkers related to the TME is expected to be a reliable direction for improving the diagnosis and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Method and Result: Therefore, to better understand the connection between the TME and survival outcomes of NSCLC, we used the “DESeq2” R package to mine the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of two groups of NSCLC samples according to the optimal cutoff value of the immune score through the ESTIMATE algorithm. A total of 978 up-DEGs and 828 down-DEGs were eventually identified. A fifteen-gene prognostic signature was established via LASSO and Cox regression analysis and further divided the patients into two risk sets. The survival outcome of high-risk patients was significantly worse than that of low-risk patients in both the TCGA and two external validation sets (p-value < 0.05). The gene signature showed high predictive accuracy in TCGA (1-year area under the time-dependent ROC curve (AUC) = 0.722, 2-year AUC = 0.708, 3-year AUC = 0.686). The nomogram comprised of the risk score and related clinicopathological information was constructed, and calibration plots and ROC curves were applied, KEGG and GSEA analyses showed that the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) pathway, E2F target pathway and immune-associated pathway were mainly involved in the high-risk group. Further somatic mutation and immune analyses were conducted to compare the differences between the two groups. Drug sensitivity provides a potential treatment basis for clinical treatment. Finally, EREG and ADH1C were selected as the key prognostic genes of the two overlapping results from PPI and multiple Cox analyses. They were verified by comparing the mRNA expression in cell lines and protein expression in the HPA database, and clinical validation further confirmed the effectiveness of key genes.Conclusion: In conclusion, we obtained an immune-related fifteen-gene prognostic signature and potential mechanism and sensitive drugs underling the prognosis model, which may provide accurate prognosis prediction and available strategies for NSCLC.

Abstract
Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is a common form of lung cancer. Although cisplatin chemotherapy is an effective treatment option, some patients with LUAD can develop drug resistance. Modulated ADH1C expression has been reported in various cancer types. However, the mechanism by which ADH1C potentially influences progression and cisplatin resistance of LUAD remains poorly understood. In this study, we aimed to explore the role of ADH1C with respect to cisplatin resistance and to uncover the clinical significance of methionine adenosyltransferase (MAT1A). Compared with cisplatin-sensitive A549 cells, ADH1C was highly enriched in cisplatin-resistant A549/cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum II (DDP) cells. Inhibition of ADH1C expression in the latter suppressed cell proliferation and decreased their resistance to cisplatin. Furthermore, the proliferative capacity under cisplatin stimulation was reduced. Downregulation of ADH1C expression inhibited the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen and excision repair cross-complementing 1 (ERCC1). Knockdown of ADH1C resulted in arrested cell cycle (in G2/M phase). The proliferative capacity and cisplatin sensitivity induced by ADH1C upregulation in A549 cells were reversed upon knockdown of ADH1C. Bioinformatic analyses revealed ADH1C to be mainly enriched in cell cycle, RNA transport, biosynthesis of amino acids, and platinum drug resistance pathways. Meanwhile, the gene MAT1A with considerable positive association with ADH1C was identified. Furthermore, expression of MAT1A was upregulated in LUAD tissues relative to the paired adjacent normal specimens. Human Protein Atlas, The university of alabama at birmingham cancer data analysis portal (UALCAN), and Kaplan-Meier Plotter analysis indicated that upregulated MAT1A expression is correlated with poor prognosis of LUAD. Our results indicate that the ADH1C/MAT1A axis possibly increases cisplatin resistance in LUAD cells. The experiment was repeated three times and approved by the Medical Ethical Committee of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University (approval No.YS2018001).

Abstract
Background Compound Kushen Injection (CKI) is a Chinese patent drug that exerts curative effects in the clinical treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This study aimed to explore the targets and potential pharmacological mechanisms of CKI in the treatment of HCC. Methods In this study, network pharmacology was used in combination with molecular biology experiments to predict and verify the molecular mechanism of CKI in the treatment of HCC. The constituents of CKI were identified by UHPLC-MS/MS and literature search. The targets corresponding to these compounds and the targets related to HCC were collected based on public databases. To screen out the potential hub targets of CKI in the treatment of HCC, a compound-HCC target network was constructed. The underlying pharmacological mechanism was explored through the subsequent enrichment analysis. Interactive Gene Expression Profiling Analysis and Kaplan-Meier plotter were used to examine the expression and prognostic value of hub genes. Furthermore, the effects of CKI on HCC were verified through molecular docking simulations and cell experiments in vitro. Results Network analysis revealed that BCHE, SRD5A2, EPHX2, ADH1C, ADH1A and CDK1 were the key targets of CKI in the treatment of HCC. Among them, only CDK1 was highly expressed in HCC tissues, while the other 5 targets were lowly expressed. Furthermore, the six hub genes were all closely related to the prognosis of HCC patients in survival analysis. Molecular docking revealed that there was an efficient binding potential between the constituents of CKI and BCHE. Experiments in vitro proved that CKI inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells and up-regulated SRD5A2 and ADH1A, while down-regulated CDK1 and EPHX2. Conclusions This study revealed and verified the targets of CKI on HCC based on network pharmacology and experiments and provided a scientific reference for further mechanism research.

Abstract
Background and objectives In hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients, microvascular invasion (MVI) is associated with worse outcomes regardless of treatment. No single reliable preoperative factor exists to predict MVI. The aim of the work described here was to develop a new MVI− based mRNA biomarker to differentiate between high and low risk patients. Methods Using The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we collected data from 315 HCC patients, including mRNA expression and complete clinical data. We generated a seven-mRNA signature to predict patient outcomes. The mRNA signature was validated using the GSE36376 cohort. Finally, we tested the formula in our own 53 HCC patients using qPCR for the seven mRNAs and analyzing the computed tomography (CT) features. Results This seven‐mRNA signature significantly correlated with length of recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) for both the training and validation groups. RFS and OS were briefer in high risk versus low risk patients. A Kaplan–Meier analysis also indicated that survival time was significantly shortened in the high risk group versus the low risk group. Time-dependent receiver operating characteristic analysis demonstrated good predictive performance for the seven-mRNA signature. The mRNA signature also acts as an independent factor according to a Multivariate analysis. Our results are consistent with the seven-mRNA formula risk score. Conclusion Our research showed a novel seven-mRNA biomarker based on MVI predicting RFS and OS in HCC patients. This mRNA signature can stratify patients into subgroups based on their risk of recurrence to help guide individualized treatment and precision management in HCC.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) plays a vital role in drug-induced hepatotoxicity and cancers (e.g. lung and bladder cancer), since it is responsible for metabolizing a number of medications and environmental toxins to reactive intermediate metabolites. CYP2E1 was recently found to be the highest expressed CYP enzyme in human livers using a proteomics approach, and CYP2E1-related toxicity is strongly associated with its protein level that shows significant inter-individual variability related to ethnicity, age, and sex. Furthermore, the expression of CYP2E1 demonstrates regulation by extensive genetic polymorphism, endogenous hormones, cytokines, xenobiotics, and varying pathological states. Over the past decade, the knowledge of pharmacology, toxicology, and biology about CYP2E1 has grown remarkably, but the research progress has yet to be summarized. This study presents a timely systematic review on CYP2E1's xenobiotic metabolism, genetic polymorphism, and inhibitors, with the focus on their clinical relevance for the efficacy and toxicity of various CYP2E1 substrates. Moreover, several knowledge gaps have been identified towards fully understanding the potential interactions among different CYP2E1 substrates in clinical settings. Through in-depth analyses of these knowns and unknowns, we expect this review will aid in future drug development and improve management of CYP2E1 related clinical toxicity.

Abstract
To seek out novel promising biomarkers for predicting lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) prognosis, we conducted this study. First, 279 upregulated and 37 downregulated differentially expressed genes were obtained from LUAD and para-carcinoma tissues by the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Transcriptome Array. Then, we randomly classified samples of LUAD data set GSE31210 as training and testing sets in a 1:1 ratio. Alcohol dehydrogenase 1C (ADH1C) and secreted phosphoprotein 1 (SPP1) were finally identified correlating with the LUAD survival through least absolute shrinkage and selection operator penalized Cox proportion hazards regression model, and applied to build a 2-gene signature related to prognosis in training set. Univariate and multivariable survival analyses suggested that overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) in the 2-gene signature low-risk group were better than the high-risk group. Kaplan-Meier curves proved that elevated ADH1C expression and reduced SPP1 expression were related to better OS and RFS. Besides, the SPP1 expressed higher in LUAD than para-carcinoma tissues using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction assay. Finally, the association between the two genes and clinicopathological parameters in 80 LUAD were analyzed, it is suggested that SPP1 was relevant to epidermal growth factor receptor mutation. These findings indicated that ADH1C and SPP1 might be novel promising biomarkers for predicting LUAD prognosis.

Polymorphisms in alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH1) and cytochrome p450 2E1 (CYP2E1) genes in patients with cirrhosis and/or hepatocellular carcinoma. BIOMEDICA 2018; 38:555-568. [PMID: 30653870 DOI: 10.7705/biomedica.v38i4.3897] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2017] [Revised: 04/27/2018] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
Introduction: One of the most important risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is alcohol consumption: Studies in different populations suggest that the risk of liver disease could be associated with genetic variants of the enzymes involved in alcohol metabolism, such as alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and cytochrome P450 CYP2E1.
Objective: To identify and characterize the allelic variants of ADH1B, ADH1C and CYP2E1 genes in Colombian patients with cirrhosis and/or HCC.
Materials and methods: We included samples from patients attending the hepatology unit between 2005-2007 and 2014-2016 of a hospital in Medellin. Samples were genotyped using PCR-RFLP. We compared the results with two control groups and the 1000 Genomes Project database.
Results: We collected 97 samples from patients with a diagnosis of cirrhosis and/or HCC. The two main risk factors were chronic alcohol consumption (18.6%) and cholangiopathies (17.5%). The most frequent genotypes in the study population were ADH1B*1/1 (82%), ADH1C*1/1 (59%), and CYP2E1*C/C (84%).
Conclusions: This first study of polymorphisms in Colombian patients diagnosed with cirrhosis and/or HCC showed genotypes ADH1B*1/1, ADH1C*1/1 and CYP2E1*C/C as the most frequent. We found no significant differences in the genotype frequency between cases and controls. Further studies are necessary to explore the association between polymorphisms and the risk of end-stage liver disease from alcohol consumption.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is a leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The relationships of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) enzymes, encoded by the genes ADH1 (1A), ADH1B (ADH2), ADH1C (ADH3), ADH4, ADH5, ADH6, and ADH7, with NSCLC have not been studied. The aim of this study was to explore the associations between NSCLC prognosis and the expression patterns of ADH family members. MATERIAL AND METHODS The online resource Metabolic gEne RApid Visualizer was used to assess the expression patterns of ADH family members in normal and primary lung tumor tissues. The GeneMANIA plugin of Cytoscape software and STRING website were used to evaluate the relationships of the 7 ADH family members at the gene and protein levels. Gene ontology enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway analysis were performed using DAVID. The online website Kaplan-Meier Plotter was used to construct survival curves between NSCLC and ADH isoforms. RESULTS The prognosis of patients with high expression levels of the ADH1B, ADH1C, ADH4, and ADH5 genes was better than those with low expression in adenocarcinoma and all (containing adenocarcinoma and squamous cell cancer) histological types (all P<0.05). Low expression of ADH7 was associated with a better prognosis in patients with both the adenocarcinoma and squamous cell cancer histological types (P=9e-05). Moreover, expression of ADH family members was associated with smoking status, clinical stage, and chemotherapy status. CONCLUSIONS ADH1B, ADH1C, ADH4, ADH5, and ADH7 appear to be useful biomarkers for the prognosis of NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Background To explore the genetic effect of rs2031920 and rs3813867 polymorphisms within the cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1) gene on the risk of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), a meta-analysis was performed. Methods The eligible case–control studies were obtained by database searching and screening, and the specific statistical analysis was performed with STATA 12.0 software. Results After the process of database searching and screening, a total of 32 case–control studies with 7435 cases and 10,466 controls were ultimately included in our meta-analysis. With regard to the rs2031920 C/T polymorphism, in comparison to controls, a reduced risk in cases of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) was detected for the models of allele T vs. allele C [P = 0.025, odds ratio (OR) = 0.67], carrier T vs. carrier C (P = 0.014, OR = 0.70), TT vs. CC (P = 0.029, OR = 0.65), CT vs. CC (P = 0.040, OR = 0.56), CT + TT vs. CC (P = 0.035, OR = 0.58). Similarly, a decreased SCC risk was observed for the rs3813867 G/C polymorphism in the allele, carrier, homozygote, dominant, and recessive models of overall SCC meta-analysis and “ESCC” subgroup analysis (all P < 0.05, OR < 1) and in all genetic models of “Asian” and “population-based control (PB)” subgroup analysis (all P < 0.05, OR < 1). Additionally, for the rs2031920/rs3813867 haplotype, a decreased SCC risk was also detected in the overall SCC meta-analysis under the allele, carrier, homozygote and dominant model (all P < 0.05, OR < 1) and the subgroup analysis of “PB” under the allele, carrier, and dominant models (all P < 0.05, OR < 1). Conclusions Our meta-analysis supports the “T” allele carrier of the CYP2E1 rs2031920 C/T polymorphism and “C” allele carrier of the rs3813867 G/C polymorphism as protective factors for ESCC patients, especially in Asian populations.

Abstract
Background Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) isoenzymes have been reported as a potential diagnostic marker for pancreatic cancer, but their prognostic value in pancreatic cancer remains unclear. The aim of this investigation was to identify the prognostic value of ADH genes in human patients with pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD). Materials and methods An RNA sequencing dataset and corresponding survival profiles of PAAD were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Survival analysis and gene set enrichment analysis were used to investigate the prediction value and potential mechanism of ADH genes in PAAD prognosis. Results Survival analysis of ADH genes suggests that a high expression of ADH1A (adjusted P=0.037, adjusted hazard ratio [HR] =0.627, 95% CI =0.404–0.972) and ADH6 (adjusted P=0.018, adjusted HR =0.588, 95% CI =0.378–0.914) were associated with a significantly decreased risk of death, while a high expression of ADH5 was associated with a significantly increased risk of death (adjusted P=0.043, adjusted HR =1.564, 95% CI =1.013–2.414). Joint effects analysis of three ADH gene prognostic markers suggests that the prognosis difference for any marker combination was more significant than that for any individual marker. The potential mechanism of ADH1A and ADH6 in PAAD prognosis was that a high expression of ADH1A and ADH6 was involved in the P450 pathway and biological processes, while high ADH5 expression was involved in transforming growth factor β regulation-related pathways and biological processes, Wnt, the cell cycle, ErbB, and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways. Conclusion Our data suggest that ADH1A, ADH5, and ADH6 expression may be potential prognostic markers of PAAD and in combination have a strong interaction and better predictive value for PAAD prognosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous reports showed that CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI polymorphism may be a risk factor for cancers. Published meta-analyses in 2010 and 2011, respectively, on the relationship of CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI polymorphisms with the susceptibility to head and neck carcinoma (HNC) have generated inconsistent results. Thus, this study aimed to conduct an updated meta-analysis involving published studies up to Nov 2015 to get a more confidential result. METHODS Eligible studies up to Nov 2015 were retrieved and screened. Data were extracted and a quantitative meta-analysis was conducted. Subgroup analyses on ethnicity, source of controls, sample size, genotyping method, smoking status, and drinking status were also performed. RESULTS Forty-one publications including a total of 43 case-control studies were selected for analysis. The overall data under a homozygote comparison model indicated a significant association of CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI polymorphisms with HNC risk (c2c2 vs c1c1: odds ratio [OR] = 1.97; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.53-2.53). Similar results were observed in the Asian subgroup (c2c2 vs c1c1: OR = 1.98; 95%CI = 1.51-2.60; c2 vs c1: OR = 1.20; 95%CI = 1.03-1.39) and mixed population (c2 vs c1: OR = 1.41; 95%CI = 1.06-1.86) when the data were stratified by ethnicities. Interestingly, increased cancer risk only was shown among never-smokers (c2c2+c1c2 vs c1c1: OR = 1.44; 95%CI = 1.05-1.98) but not ever-smokers. CONCLUSION CYP2E1 RsaI/PstI polymorphisms may modify the susceptibility to HNC, particularly among Asians, mixed population, and never-smokers. Future large and well-designed studies are needed to verify this conclusion.

BMC Genet 2014; 15:156. [PMID: 25544508 PMCID: PMC4299568 DOI: 10.1186/s12863-014-0156-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2014] [Accepted: 12/18/2014] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Several pathogenesis and genetic factors influence predisposition to antituberculosis drug-induced hepatotoxicity (ATDH) especially for isoniazid (INH). However, the major susceptibility genes for ATDH are N-acetyltransferase 2 (NAT2) and cytochrome P450 2E1 (CYP2E1). NAT2 gene determines the individual’s acetylator status (fast, intermediate or slow) to metabolize drugs and xenobiotics, while CYP2E1 c1/c1 genotype carriers had an increased risk of ATDH. Polymorphisms of the NAT2 and CYP2E1 genes vary remarkably among the populations of different ethnic origins. The aim of this study was to determine, for the first time, the frequency of slow acetylators in Moroccan population by genotyping of NAT2 gene variants and determining the genotype c1/c1 for CYP2E1 gene, in order to predict adverse effects of Tuberculosis treatment, particularly hepatotoxicity. Results The frequencies of specific NAT2 alleles were 53%, 25%, 2% and 4% for NAT2*5, NAT2*6, NAT2*7 and NAT2*14 respectively among 163 Moroccan studied group. Genotyping of CYP2E1 gene, by real-time polymerase chain reaction using TaqMan probes, revealed frequencies of 98.5% for c1/c1 and 1.5% for c1/c2 among 130 Moroccan studied group. Conclusion The most prevalent genotypes of NAT2 gene in Moroccans are those which encode slow acetylation phenotype (72.39%), leading to a high risk of ATDH. Most Moroccans are homozygous for c1 allele of CYP2E1 gene which aggravates hepatotoxicity in slow acetylators. This genetic background should be taken into account in determining the minimum dose of INH needed to treat Moroccan TB patients, in order to decrease adverse effects.

Abstract
Recent studies have shown that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are associated with allograft rejection in kidney transplantation recipients. We evaluated the possible association between SNPs of the cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily E, polypeptide 1 (CYP2E1) gene, and acute rejection (AR) among renal transplant patients in a Korean population. We conducted a case-control association study in 63 AR and 284 non-AR kidney transplant recipients. The SNPs of CYP2E1 were genotyped by direct sequencing. Recipient sex (p = 0.023) and the use of tacrolimus (p = 0.017) were significantly different between the two groups. The use of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and antibody induction therapy was significantly lower in the AR group. Multiple logistic regression models (codominant, dominant, recessive, and log-additive models) adjusted by sex and type of immunosuppressive regimens were applied to determine the odds ratios (ORs), 95% confidence intervals (CIs), and p-values. The rs2515641 of CYP2E1 showed significant differences between the AR patient group and non-AR group (p = 0.003, OR = 2.55, 95% CI = 1.37-4.75 in the codominant 1 model; p = 0.002, OR = 2.61, 95% CI = 1.43-4.77 in the dominant model; p = 0.0035, OR = 2.13, 95% CI = 1.29-3.50 in the log-additive model). The allele of the rs2515641 SNP also showed a significant association (p = 0.004, OR = 1.99, 95% CI = 1.24-3.21). This study suggests that the CYP2E1 polymorphism may be related to the development of AR in Korean kidney transplantation recipients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alcohol dehydrogenase 1C (ADH1C) is the key enzyme catalyze oxidation of alcohol to acetaldehyde, which plays vital roles in the etiology of various cancer. To date, studies investigated the association between a functional polymorphism in ADH1C, Ile350Val (rs698), and risk of cancer have shown inclusive results. METHODS A meta-analysis based on 35 case-control studies was performed to address this issue. Odds ratios (OR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to assess the association. The statistical heterogeneity across studies was examined with χ2-based Q-test. RESULTS Overall, no significant associations between ADH1C Ile350Val polymorphism and cancer risk were observed in any genetic models (P>0.05). In the stratified analyses, there was a significantly increased cancer risk among African (Val/Val vs. Ile/Ile OR = 2.19, 95% CI = 1.29-3.73, P(heterogeneity) = 0.989; Ile/Val + Val/Val vs. Ile/Ile: OR = 1.79, 95%CI = 1.18-2.71, P(heterogeneity) = 0.761; Val/Val vs. Ile/Val + Ile/Ile: OR = 1.92, 95% CI = 1.16-3.17, P(heterogeneity) = 0.981) and Asian (Ile/Val vs. Ile/Ile: OR = 1.58, 95% CI = 1.32-1.90, P(heterogeneity) = 0.375; Val/Val vs. Ile/Ile: OR = 3.84, 95% CI = 1.74-8.49, P(heterogeneity) = 0.160; Ile/Val + Val/Val vs. Ile/Ile: OR = 1.65, 95% CI = 1.38-1.96, P(heterogeneity) = 0.330; Val/Val vs. Ile/Val + Ile/Ile: OR = 3.54, 95% CI = 1.62-7.75, P(heterogeneity) = 0.154) studies. CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that ADH1C Ile350Val polymorphism may contribute to cancer risk among Africans and Asians. Additional comprehensive system analyses are required to validate this association combined with other related polymorphisms.

Abstract
Alcohol consumption and its association with health or illness states are of great interest from the nutritional genomics point of view. This interest is centered not only on investigating the genetic variants that can modulate the effects of alcoholic beverages on different intermediate and final disease phenotypes (mainly cardiovascular diseases and cancer), but also on finding out how the genome influences the amount of alcohol consumed and consumption habits. This chapter reviews the latest findings on alcohol consumption trends, the methodological limitations in the analysis of alcohol consumption, and the main genes and polymorphisms related to alcohol intake, including the inconsistent results from genome-wide association studies (GWASs). It also reviews the effects of alcohol consumption on cardiovascular diseases and cancer and the studies analyzing the interactions between different genetic polymorphisms and alcohol in phenotypes related to these diseases, discussing the studies' advantages and limitations as well as future research perspectives.
