[PMID: 37670967 PMCID: PMC10475370 DOI: 10.7150/jca.86678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2023] [Accepted: 08/06/2023] [Indexed: 09/07/2023] Open
Abstract
To date, no study delineates the relationships among the genetic variants of long intergenic noncoding RNA 673 (LINC00673) and uterine cervical carcinogenesis as well as clinicopathological parameters and 5 years survival of cervical cancer patients in Taiwan. Therefore, the involvement of LINC00673 polymorphisms in cervical cancer was investigated. Genotypic frequencies of three LINC00673 polymorphisms rs6501551, rs9914618 and rs11655237 were determined in 199 patients including 115 patients with invasive cancer, 84 with precancerous lesions, and 274 control females using real-time polymerase chain reaction. It revealed that LINC00673 polymorphisms were not found significantly related to development of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer patients with genotypes AG/GG in LINC00673 rs6501551 had more risk to have tumor diameter larger than 4 cm as compared to those with genotype AA (p=0.043). Cervical cancer patients with genotype GG in rs6501551 had worse 5 years survival as compared to those with genotypes AA/AG in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio: 4.70; p=0.097). However, only two patients exhibiting GG were noted, and one had mortality, another had no mortality. In conclusion, larger sample size needs to verify the associations of LINC00673 genetic variants with clinicopathological parameters and patient survival of cervical cancer for Taiwanese females.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The present study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis of previously published studies in order to clarify the association of long noncoding RNA (lncRNAs) LINC00673 rs11655237 C> T polymorphism with cancer risk. DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. SETTING Electronic databases of PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Database were used to search relevant studies. Studies published up to October 20, 2019 were included. The included studies were assessed in the following genetic model: allelic model, homozygote model, Heterozygote model, dominant model, recessive model. Data syntheses were conducted using STATA 12.0. PARTICIPANTS Participants with various types cancers were included. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOME MEASURES Odds ratio (ORs) and 95% confidence interval (CIs) were calculated to assess the risk of tumor. RESULTS Seven articles including 7 case-control studies, 7423 cases and 11,049 controls were adopted for meta-analysis. Our result demonstrated that LINC00673 rs11655237 C> T was related to the cancer among all model including allelic model (T vs C: pooled OR = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.16-1.41, P < .001), homozygous model (TT vs CC: pooled OR=1.54, 95% CI = 1.36-1.76, P < .001), heterozygous model (CT vs CC: pooled OR=1.24, 95% CI = 1.16-1.32, P < .001), dominant model (CT + TT vs CC: pooled OR=1.28, 95% CI = 1.20-1.36, P < .001) and recessive model (TT vs CT+ CC: pooled OR=1.42, 95% CI = 1.25-1.61, P < .001). Subgroup analysis also demonstrated that polymorphisms at this site also increased the risk of neuroblastoma. CONCLUSIONS Our results find that rs11655237 contributed to occurrence of cancer in all models in Chinese population.

Transl Pediatr 2021; 10:1890-1895. [PMID: 34430437 PMCID: PMC8349947 DOI: 10.21037/tp-21-291] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/04/2021] [Accepted: 07/14/2021] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous researches have suggested that LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism might be correlated to cancer susceptibility. However, its correlation with pediatric glioma is unknown. Therefore, this study aimed to determine whether LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism is correlated with pediatric glioma. METHODS In total, we included 399 subjects from South China. The Student's t-test was performed to evaluate age differences between glioma cases and controls. Differences in the categorical variables between the two groups were assessed using the χ2 test. A logistic regression was conducted to calculate the odds ratio (OR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS We conducted this case-control study to investigate the association between LINC00673 polymorphism and pediatric glioma susceptibility. Our results revealed that LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism was not correlated to pediatric glioma susceptibility in a Chinese population (CC/CT compared with TT: adjusted OR =2.49, 95% CI: 0.87-7.15, P=0.091). Furthermore, a stratified analysis also indicated LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism did not increase the risk of glioma in different subgroups. CONCLUSIONS Our study revealed that LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism was not correlated to pediatric glioma susceptibility in a Chinese population. In the future, further exploration of this genetic factor in relation to glioma susceptibility will require a larger sample size to verify the current findings.

Association of LINC00673 Genetic Variants with Progression of Oral Cancer. J Pers Med 2021; 11:jpm11060468. [PMID: 34070517 PMCID: PMC8227532 DOI: 10.3390/jpm11060468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2021] [Revised: 05/19/2021] [Accepted: 05/24/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a multifactorial malignancy, and its high incidence and mortality rate remain a global public health burden. Polymorphisms in the long intergenic noncoding RNA 673 (LINC00673) have been currently connected to the predisposition to various cancer types. The present study attempted to explore the impact of LINC00673 gene polymorphisms on the risk and progression of OSCC. Three LINC00673 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), including rs11655237, rs9914618, and rs6501551, were evaluated in 1231 OSCCC cases and 1194 cancer-free controls. We did not observe any significant association of three individual SNPs with the risk of OSCC between the case and control group. However, while assessing the clinicopathological parameters, patients carrying at least one minor allele of rs9914618 (GA and AA; OR, 1.286; 95% CI, 1.008–1.642; p = 0.043) were found to develop lymph node metastasis more often compared to those who are homozygous for the major allele. Further stratification analyses revealed that this genetic correlation with increased risk of lymphatic spread was further fortified in habitual betel quid chewers (OR, 1.534; 95% CI, 1.160–2.028; p = 0.003) or smokers (OR, 1.320; 95% CI, 1.013–1.721; p = 0.040). Moreover, through analyzing the dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we found that elevated LINC00673 levels were associated with the development of large tumors in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and the risk of lymphatic spread in smokers. These data demonstrate a joint effect of LINC00673 rs9914618 with betel nut chewing or smoking on the progression of oral cancer.

Abstract
Neuroblastoma is one of the utmost frequent neoplasms during the first year of life. This pediatric cancer is believed to be originated during the embryonic life from the neural crest cells. Previous studies have detected several types of chromosomal aberrations in this tumor. More recent studies have emphasized on expression profiling of neuroblastoma samples to identify the dysregulated genes in this type of cancer. Non-coding RNAs are among the mostly dysregulated genes in this type of cancer. Such dysregulation has been associated with a number of chromosomal aberrations that are frequently detected in neuroblastoma. In this study, we explain the role of non-coding transcripts in the malignant transformation in neuroblastoma and their role as biomarkers for this pediatric cancer.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) act as regulators and play important roles in a variety of biological processes. These regulators constitute a huge information network among genes and participate in the pathophysiological process of human diseases. Increasing evidence has demonstrated that LncRNA, as an oncogene or tumor suppressor gene, is closely related to the occurrence and development of tumors. Linc00673 is a recently discovered LncRNA molecule that is dysregulated in several solid tumors. Moreover, its genetic polymorphism is believed to affect the susceptibility of a population to the corresponding cancer species. This article summarizes the role of Linc00673 in different human cancers and its molecular mechanisms with a focus on the characteristics of Linc00673 and the existing literature on it while highlighting the future research directions for Linc00673. Linc00673 has the potential to become a feasible clinical diagnostic and prognostic marker toward providing a new molecular therapeutic target for cancer patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Neuroblastoma (NB) is the prime cancer of infancy, and accounts for 9% of pediatric cancer deaths. While children diagnosed with clinically stable NB experience a complete cure, those with high-risk disease (HR-NB) do not recover, despite intensive therapeutic strategies. Development of novel and effective targeted therapies is needed to counter disease progression, and to benefit long-term survival of children with HR-NB. AREAS COVERED Recent studies (2017-2020) pertinent to NB evolution are selectively reviewed to recognize novel and effective therapeutic targets. The prospective and promising therapeutic targets/strategies for HR-NB are categorized into (a) targeting oncogene-like and/or reinforcing tumor suppressor (TS)-like lncRNAs; (b) targeting oncogene-like microRNAs (miRs) and/or mimicking TS-miRs; (c) targets for immunotherapy; (d) targeting epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and cancer stem cells; (e) novel and beneficial combination approaches; and (f) repurposing drugs and other strategies in development. EXPERT OPINION It is highly unlikely that agents targeting a single candidate or signaling will be beneficial for an HR-NB cure. We must develop efficient drug deliverables for functional targets, which could be integrated and advance clinical therapy. Fittingly, the looming evidence indicated an aggressive evolution of promising novel and integrative targets, development of efficient drugs, and improvised strategies for HR-NB treatment.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), some of the most abundant epigenetic regulators, play an important role in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). In the current study, the functions and mechanisms of the lncRNA LINC00673 were investigated. The expression levels of LINC00673 and its potential target genes were assessed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) in ESCC surgical specimens and ESCC cell lines. RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (RNA FISH) was employed to detect the subcellular location and the levels of LINC00673 in ESCC samples from patients with different survival times. LINC00673 function in ESCC carcinogenesis was also evaluated in vivo and in vitro. Cell cycle synchronization was performed using serum withdrawal; the cell cycle was monitored by fluorescence analysis and cellular DNA was detected by flow cytometry. The molecular mechanisms underlying LINC00673 were explored via Western blotting, chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP), and ChIP-PCR. Up-regulated LINC00673 was associated with poor prognosis in ESCC patients and promoted the proliferation of ESCC cells both in vitro and in vivo. Compared to the control group, depletion of LINC00673 in ESCC cells arrested the cell cycle, at least, at the G1/S checkpoint. Knockdown of LINC00673 significantly enhanced posttranscriptional expression of CDKN2C, and histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) was enriched at the promoter region of CDKN2C. After inhibiting EZH2, the CDKN2C expression levels were increased. The present findings are the first to reveal that LINC00673 represses CDKN2C expression and promotes ESCC cell proliferation by elevating EZH2-mediated H3K27me3 levels. These data suggest that LINC00673 regulates the cell cycle in ESCC and that it is a promising target for clinical therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some studies on the relationship between LINC00673 polymorphism and cancer susceptibility have been inconsistent. To perform a more comprehensively quantitative assessment of LINC00673 rs11655237 and risk of overall cancer, we operated this meta-analysis for the first time. METHODS A comprehensive search was conducted to obtain relevant literature up to November 20, 2019. Pooled odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals were utilized to assess rs11655237 and cancer susceptibility under five different genetic models. RESULTS Eventually, 11 case-control studies from 9 articles were included. We found that LINC00673 rs11655237 polymorphism increased the susceptibility to overall cancer under all genetic models in the overall population. By dividing ethnicity and cancer type into subgroups, we also obtained similar positive results in subgroups of Chinese population, pancreatic cancer, cervical cancer, neuroblastoma, hepatoblastoma and gastric cancer. CONCLUSION Overall, this meta-analysis has demonstrated for the first time that LINC00673 rs11655237 could increase susceptibility to cancer.

Recently, a few studies explored the relationship between lncRNA H19 gene rs2839698 polymorphism and CRC risk, but with conflicting findings. Materials and methods A case‐control study with 315 CRC cases and 441 controls was designed in a Chinese population. Genotyping was performed using PCR‐RFLP. Results It was found rs2839698 polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk of CRC (AA vs GG: OR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.54‐0.98; P = .037; A vs G: OR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.63‐0.96; P = .021). Stratified analyses indicated this positive association was also significant in the non‐smokers (AA vs GG: OR, 0.49; 95% CI, 0.25‐0.93; P = .029), non‐drinkers, those aged ≥ 60 years, and overweight individuals (BMI ≥ 24). In addition, rs2839698 polymorphism was also related to the lymph node metastasis (AA vs GG: OR, 0.43; 95% CI, 0.21‐0.88; P = .019) and tumor size (AA vs GG: OR, 0.42; 95% CI, 0.20‐0.88; P = .020) for patients with CRC. Conclusion To sum up, the lncRNA H19 gene rs2839698 polymorphism decreases the risk of CRC in Chinese individuals, especially among the non‐smokers, non‐drinkers, individuals aged ≥ 60 years, and overweight individuals (BMI ≥ 24). Thus, the lncRNA H19 gene rs2839698 polymorphism might be an important biomarker and diagnostic marker for predicting the susceptibility to CRC in Chinese Han population.

[PMID: 31657076 DOI: 10.1002/jgm.3133] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/06/2019] [Revised: 10/07/2019] [Accepted: 10/12/2019] [Indexed: 02/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Wilms tumor, a frequently occurring pediatric renal cancer worldwide, originated from the embryonal nephric mesenchyme. However, epidemiological data on the association between LINC00673 polymorphisms and Wilms tumor risk are scant. This case-control study was conducted to investigate the potential role of the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism in the susceptibility to Wilms tumor. METHODS In the present study, we conducted a genotyping analysis of LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T in 414 cases and 1199 controls recruited from five hospitals in China. Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated from multiple logistic regression models to determine the association of LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and Wilms tumor susceptibility. RESULTS No significant association between the LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T polymorphism and Wilms tumor risk was observed (CT versus CC: adjusted OR = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.71-1.15; TT versus CC: adjusted OR = 0.86, 95% CI = 0.50-1.49; TT/CT versus CC: adjusted OR = 0.90, 95% CI = 0.71-1.13; and TT versus CC/CT: adjusted OR = 0.89, 95% CI = 0.52-1.53). We also failed to make any remarkable findings for this genotype in the stratification analysis. CONCLUSIONS In summary, we failed to provide any evidence in favor of the significant susceptibility of rs11655237 C>T polymorphism in LINC00673 to Wilms tumor. These data could be useful for reinforcing our understanding of the potential contribution of LINC00673 rs11655237 C>T to Wilms tumor susceptibility.

Abstract
The incidence and mortality rate of cancer has been quickly increasing in the past decades. At present, cancer has become the leading cause of death worldwide. Most of the cancers cannot be effectively diagnosed at the early stage. Although there are multiple therapeutic treatments, including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and targeted drugs, their effectiveness is still limited. The overall survival rate of malignant cancers is still low. It is necessary to further study the mechanisms for malignant cancers, and explore new biomarkers and targets that are more sensitive and effective for early diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of cancers than traditional biomarkers and methods. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are a class of RNA transcripts with a length greater than 200 nucleotides. Generally, lncRNAs are not capable of encoding proteins or peptides. LncRNAs exert diverse biological functions by regulating gene expressions and functions at transcriptional, translational, and post-translational levels. In the past decade, it has been demonstrated that the dysregulated lncRNA profile is widely involved in the pathogenesis of many diseases, including cancer, metabolic disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. In particular, lncRNAs have been revealed to play an important role in tumor growth and metastasis. Many lncRNAs have been shown to be potential biomarkers and targets for the diagnosis and treatment of cancers. This review aims to briefly discuss the latest findings regarding the roles and mechanisms of some important lncRNAs in the pathogenesis of certain malignant cancers, including lung, breast, liver, and colorectal cancers, as well as hematological malignancies and neuroblastoma.

H19 gene polymorphisms and neuroblastoma susceptibility in Chinese children: a six-center case-control study. J Cancer 2019; 10:6358-6363. [PMID: 31772668 PMCID: PMC6856749 DOI: 10.7150/jca.37564] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2019] [Accepted: 09/21/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Neuroblastoma is the most common seen solid tumor in children less than one year old. Given that polymorphisms in the lncRNA H19 gene are observed in several types of human malignancies, there likely to be similar events that contribute to the pathogenesis of neuroblastoma. We hypothesize that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the H19 gene might predispose to neuroblastoma. Here, we genotyped three SNPs (rs2839698 G>A, rs3024270 C>G, rs217727 G>A) from H19 gene in a Chinese population (700 subjects with neuroblastoma and 1516 control subjects) enrolled from six hospitals and examined the effect of individual and combined SNPs on the risk of neuroblastoma. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) calculated from logistic regression were adopted to assess such association, adjusted for age and gender. Among them, 700 controls and 1514 cases were successfully genotyped. None of these three SNPs were found to be relevant to the risk of neuroblastoma, either in overall analysis or stratification analysis. Findings from this study excluded the participation of lncRNA H19 gene SNPs in the risk of neuroblastoma. More independent case-control studies are encouraged to better elucidate this relationship.
