Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a prevalent malignancy among adolescents, commonly manifesting during childhood and adolescence. It exhibits a high degree of malignancy, propensity for metastasis, rapid progression, and poses challenges in clinical management. Chemotherapy represents an efficacious therapeutic modality for OS treatment. However, chemotherapy resistance of OS is a major problem in clinical treatment. In order to treat OS effectively, it is particularly important to explore the mechanism of chemotherapy resistance in OS.The Pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a nuclear receptor primarily involved in the metabolism, transport, and elimination of xenobiotics, including chemotherapeutic agents. PXR involves three stages of drug metabolism: stage I: drug metabolism enzymes; stage II: drug binding enzyme; stage III: drug transporter.PXR has been confirmed to be involved in the process of chemotherapy resistance in malignant tumors. The expression of PXR is increased in OS, which may be related to drug resistance of OS. Therefore, wereviewed in detail the role of PXR in chemotherapy drug resistance in OS.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common type of primary bone malignancy. Common genetic variants including single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with osteosarcoma risk, however, the results of published studies are inconsistent. The aim of this study was to systematically review genetic association studies to identify SNPs associated with osteosarcoma risk and the effect of race on these associations. We searched the Medline, Embase, Scopus from inception to the end of 2019. Seventy-five articles were eligible for inclusion. These studies investigated the association of 190 SNPs across 79 genes with osteosarcoma, 18 SNPs were associated with the risk of osteosarcoma in the main analysis or in subgroup analysis. Subgroup analysis displayed conflicting effects between Asians and Caucasians. Our review comprehensively summarized the results of published studies investigating the association of genetic variants with osteosarcoma susceptibility, however, their potential value should be confirmed in larger cohorts in different ethnicities.

[PMID: 38212758 PMCID: PMC10782754 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-023-03287-0] [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: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/13/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to provide a reference based on evidence for an individualized clinical medication of high-dose methotrexate (HD-MTX) in osteosarcoma patients by evaluating the effect of gene polymorphism on adverse reactions of HD-MTX usage. METHODS Several databases were combed for research on the association between gene polymorphisms and adverse reactions to HD-MTX up to January 2023. A meta-analysis and/or descriptive analysis on the incidence of HD-MTX-related adverse reactions were conducted by using clinical studies meeting inclusion criteria. RESULTS Twelve studies involving 889 patients were included. There were 8, 6, 5, and 4 studies related to MTHFR C677T, MTHFR A1298C, RFC1 G80A, and MDR1 C3435T polymorphisms, respectively. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the MTHFR C677T polymorphism was associated with G3-4 hepatotoxicity, G3-4 nephrotoxicity, G3-4 gastrointestinal toxicity, and G3-4 mucositis under the recessive genetic model (MM vs. Mm/mm). Limited research showed that MTHFR C677T was associated with G3-4 nephrotoxicity in the allelic genetic model (M vs. m). MTHFR A1298C polymorphism was associated with a decreased risk of adverse reactions to HD-MTX usage, without statistical significance. This review's descriptive analysis showed no significant correlation between the RFC1 G80A, and MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and adverse reactions of HD-MTX. CONCLUSION The MTHFR C677T mutation may enhance the risk of HD-MTX adverse reactions in osteosarcoma patients. Existing studies have not found a significant correlation between the MTHFR A1298C, RFC1 G80A, and MDR1 C3435T polymorphism and adverse reactions caused by HD-MTX. Lastly, this conclusion was limited because of few studies.

Abstract
Background Osteosarcoma (OS) stands as the prevailing form of primary bone cancer in clinical practice. Lack of effective treatment options and an overall poor prognosis are caused by the disease's exceptionally rare occurrence and unclear rationale. Objective This study's goal is to determine diagnostic marker genes involved in the progression of OS and investigate related pathways and mechanisms with the purpose of offering effective methods for OS diagnostics and therapy. Methods The Gene Expression Omnibus database provided the gene microarray data. Core genes were identified through differential expression analysis and WGCNA. Three techniques for machine learning, random forest, least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression, and support vector machine recursive feature elimination, were used to further screen the core genes and obtain diagnostic marker genes for OS. The specificity and sensitivity of the diagnostic marker genes for OS diagnosis were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves. Western blotting analysis was used for preliminary validation of the diagnostic marker genes and their related pathways. Results Two diagnostic marker genes were identified through screening, including CEP55 and VWF. Receiver operating characteristic curves have been utilized to assess the diagnostic and therapeutic effects of CEP55 and VWF on OS. Western blotting analysis preliminarily validated the overexpression of CEP55 in OS and its capacity to control MMP2 and MMP9 levels by activating the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway. Conclusion At the first time, this research shows that CEP55 and VWF are more powerful diagnostic and predictive indicators for OS. CEP55 holds the capacity to activate the JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway and modulate MMP2 and MMP9 levels, thereby positioning it as a promising target in OS treatment.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common malignant bone tumor in children and adolescents. In recent decades, OS treatment has reached a plateau and drug resistance is still a major challenge. Therefore, the present study aimed to analyze the expression of the genes related to pharmacogenetics in OS. The expression of 32 target genes in 80 paired specimens (pre-chemotherapeutic primary tumor, post-chemotherapeutic primary tumor and pulmonary metastasis) obtained from 33 patients diagnosed with OS were analyzed by the real-time PCR methodology. As the calibrators (control), five normal bone specimens were used. The present study identified associations between the OS outcome and the expression of the genes TOP2A, DHFR, MTHFR, BCL2L1, CASP3, FASLG, GSTM3, SOD1, ABCC1, ABCC2, ABCC3, ABCC5, ABCC6, ABCC10, ABCC11, ABCG2, RALBP1, SLC19A1, SLC22A1, ERCC1 and MSH2. In addition, the expression of the ABCC10, GGH, GSTM3 and SLC22A1 genes were associated with the disease event, and the metastasis specimens showed a high expression profile of ABCC1, ABCC3 and ABCC4 genes and a low expression of SLC22A1 and ABCC10 genes, which is possibly an important factor for resistance in OS metastasis. Therefore, our findings may, in the future, contribute to clinical management as prognostic factors as well as possible therapeutic targets.

Abstract
In this review we trace the passage of fundamental ideas through 20th century cancer research that began with observations on mustard gas toxicity in World War I. The transmutation of these ideas across scientific and national boundaries, was channeled from chemical carcinogenesis labs in London via Yale and Chicago, then ultimately to the pharmaceutical industry in Bielefeld, Germany. These first efforts to checkmate cancer with chemicals led eventually to the creation of one of the most successful groups of cancer chemotherapeutic drugs, the oxazaphosphorines, first cyclophosphamide (CP) in 1958 and soon thereafter its isomer ifosfamide (IFO). The giant contributions of Professor Sir Alexander Haddow, Dr. Alfred Z. Gilman & Dr. Louis S. Goodman, Dr. George Gomori and Dr. Norbert Brock step by step led to this breakthrough in cancer chemotherapy. A developing understanding of the metabolic disposition of ifosfamide directed efforts to ameliorate its side-effects, in particular, ifosfamide-induced encephalopathy (IIE). This has resulted in several candidates for the encephalopathic metabolite, including 2-chloroacetaldehyde, 2-chloroacetic acid, acrolein, 3-hydroxypropionic acid and S-carboxymethyl-L-cysteine. The pros and cons for each of these, together with other IFO metabolites, are discussed in detail. It is concluded that IFO produces encephalopathy in susceptible patients, but CP does not, by a "perfect storm," involving all of these five metabolites. Methylene blue (MB) administration appears to be generally effective in the prevention and treatment of IIE, in all probability by the inhibition of monoamine oxidase in brain potentiating serotonin levels that modulate the effects of IFO on GABAergic and glutamatergic systems. This review represents the authors' analysis of a large body of published research.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteosarcoma is the most common bone tumor in children and adolescents. Despite multiagent chemotherapy, only 71% of patients survives and these survivors often experience long-term toxicities. The main objective of this systematic review is to provide an overview of the discovery of novel associations of germline polymorphisms with treatment response and/or chemotherapy-induced toxicities in osteosarcoma. METHODS: MEDLINE and Embase were systematically searched (2010-July 2022). Genetic association studies were included if they assessed > 10 germline genetic variants in > 5 genes in relevant drug pathways or if they used a genotyping array or other large-scale genetic analysis. Quality was assessed using adjusted STrengthening the REporting of Genetic Association studies (STREGA)-guidelines. To find additional evidence for the identified associations, literature was searched to identify replication studies. RESULTS After screening 1999 articles, twenty articles met our inclusion criteria. These range from studies focusing on genes in relevant pharmacokinetic pathways to whole genome sequencing. Eleven articles reported on doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy. For seven genetic variants in CELF4, GPR35, HAS3, RARG, SLC22A17, SLC22A7 and SLC28A3, replication studies were performed, however without consistent results. Ototoxicity was investigated in one study. Five small studies reported on mucosistis or bone marrow, nephro- and/or hepatotoxicity. Six studies included analysis for treatment efficacy. Genetic variants in ABCC3, ABCC5, FasL, GLDC, GSTP1 were replicated in studies using heterogeneous efficacy outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Despite that results are promising, the majority of associations were poorly reproducible due to small patient cohorts. For the future, hypothesis-generating studies in large patient cohorts will be necessary, especially for cisplatin-induced ototoxicity as these are largely lacking. In order to form large patient cohorts, national and international collaboration will be essential.

Abstract
Paediatric oncology patients who develop severe chemotherapy-induced toxicity that requires dose reduction, delay or termination of treatment are at risk of decreased treatment efficacy. Previous research has provided evidence that genetic variants in TPMT, NUDT15, UGT1A1 and DPYD are associated with toxicity of anticancer drugs. This led to pharmacogenetic guidelines that are integrated into clinical practice in paediatric oncology. Recently, novel genetic variants have been associated with a higher risk of developing chemotherapy-induced toxicity. In this case series, we selected 21 novel variants and genotyped these in nine patients with excessive chemotherapy-induced toxicity using whole exome sequencing or micro-array data. We observed that six out of nine patients carried at least one variant that, according to recent studies, potentially increased the risk of developing methotrexate- or vincristine-induced toxicity. As patient-derived genetic data are becoming widely accessible in paediatric oncology, these variants could potentially enter clinical practice to mitigate chemotherapy-induced toxicity.

Abstract
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are involved in almost the entire cell life cycle through different mechanisms and play an important role in many key biological processes. Mutations and dysregulation of lncRNAs have been implicated in many complex human diseases. Therefore, identifying the relationship between lncRNAs and diseases not only contributes to biologists' understanding of disease mechanisms, but also provides new ideas and solutions for disease diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and prevention. Since the existing experimental methods for predicting lncRNA-disease associations (LDAs) are expensive and time consuming, machine learning methods for predicting lncRNA-disease associations have become increasingly popular among researchers. In this review, we summarize some of the human diseases studied by LDAs prediction models, association and similarity features of LDAs prediction, performance evaluation methods of models and some advanced machine learning prediction models of LDAs. Finally, we discuss the potential limitations of machine learning-based methods for LDAs prediction and provide some ideas for designing new prediction models.

Abstract
High-dose methotrexate (HDMTX) is a pivotal component of the chemotherapeutic regimens of osteosarcoma. However, the use of HDMTX is limited by an increased risk of dose-dependent toxicity. It is thought that the plasma levels and therapy-related toxicity of MTX could be associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within MTX metabolism pathway genes. Here, we report a case of a paediatric osteosarcoma girl with delayed MTX excretion who was successfully managed using supportive measures and continuous veno-venous haemodiafiltration. We further identified the cause that could account for delayed elimination by genotyping analysis. The results showed that variations have been found in SLCO1B1, SLC19A1, ABCB1 and MTHFR, all those were reported to have a strong association with delayed elimination of MTX in clinical studies. After comprehensive consideration of genotype and clinical phenotype, the second course of HDMTX was administered to this patient at a half reduced dose. We also performed a literature review to summarize the pharmacogenetic factors that influence HDMTX pharmacokinetics or MTX-related adverse effects in osteosarcoma patients. It is suggested that the potential risk of delayed MTX elimination is worthy of clinical attention, and the implementation of genotyping should be considered to ensure therapeutic safety.

Abstract
Pediatric cancer treatment has evolved significantly in recent decades. The implementation of risk stratification strategies and the selection of evidence-based chemotherapy combinations have improved survival outcomes. However, there is large interindividual variability in terms of chemotherapy-related toxicities and, sometimes, the response among this population. This variability is partly attributed to the functional variability of drug-metabolizing enzymes (DME) and drug transporters (DTS) involved in the process of absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME). The DTS, being ubiquitous, affects drug disposition across membranes and has relevance in determining chemotherapy response in pediatric cancer patients. Among the factors affecting DTS function, ontogeny or maturation is important in the pediatric population. In this narrative review, we describe the role of drug uptake/efflux transporters in defining pediatric chemotherapy-treatment-related toxicities and responses. Developmental differences in DTS and the consequent implications are also briefly discussed for the most commonly used chemotherapeutic drugs in the pediatric population.

Abstract
Increasing number of experiments show that lncRNAs are involved in many biological processes, and their mutations and disorders are associated with many diseases. However, verifying the relationships between lncRNAs and diseases is time consuming and laborio. Searching for effective computational methods will contribute to our understanding of the underlying mechanisms of disease and identifying biomarkers of diseases. Therefore, we proposed a method called lncRNA-disease association prediction based on linear neighborhood similarity and unbalanced bi-random walk (LDA-LNSUBRW). Given that the known lncRNA-disease associations are rare, a pretreatment step should be performed to obtain the interaction possibility of unknown cases, so as to help us predict the potential associations. In the framework of leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV)and fivefold cross-validation (5-fold CV), LDA-LNSUBRW achieved effective performance with AUC of 0.8874 and 0.8632 ± 0.0051, respectively. The experimental results in this paper show that the proposed method is superior to five other state-of-the-art methods. In addition, case studies of three diseases (lung cancer, breast cancer, and osteosarcoma)were carried out to illustrate that LDA-LNSUBRW could predict the relevant lncRNAs.

[PMID: 34984436 PMCID: PMC8753343 DOI: 10.1042/bsr20212446] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2021] [Revised: 12/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although weak SWI/SNF related matrix-associated actin-dependent regulator of chromatin subfamily B member 1 (SMARCB1) expression is a known diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in several malignancies, its expression and clinical significance in osteosarcoma remain unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate SMARCB1 expression in osteosarcoma and its clinical significance with respect to chemosensitivity and prognosis. METHODS We obtained 114 specimens from 70 osteosarcoma patients to construct a tissue microarray (TMA) and assess SMARCB1 protein expression via immunohistochemistry (IHC). The mRNA expression of SMARCB1 was in-silico analyzed using open-access RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) and clinicopathological data provided by the Therapeutically Applicable Research to Generate Effective Treatments on Osteosarcoma (TARGET-OS) project. The correlations between SMARCB1 expression and clinical features were statistically analyzed. RESULTS Weak SMARCB1 expression occurred in 70% of the osteosarcoma patient specimens in the TMA, and significantly correlated with poor neoadjuvant response as well as shorter overall and progression-free survival (PFS). In addition, mRNA in-silico analysis confirmed that SMARCB1 expression correlates with chemotherapeutic response and prognosis in osteosarcoma patients. CONCLUSION To our knowledge, the present study is the first to analyze SMARCB1 expression in osteosarcoma. SMARCB1 may serve as a novel diagnostic and prognostic biomarker in osteosarcoma.

Cells 2021; 10:cells10092461. [PMID: 34572110 PMCID: PMC8467338 DOI: 10.3390/cells10092461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2021] [Revised: 09/14/2021] [Accepted: 09/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter superfamily consists of several proteins with a wide repertoire of functions. Under physiological conditions, ABC transporters are involved in cellular trafficking of hormones, lipids, ions, xenobiotics, and several other molecules, including a broad spectrum of chemical substrates and chemotherapeutic drugs. In cancers, ABC transporters have been intensely studied over the past decades, mostly for their involvement in the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenotype. This review provides an overview of ABC transporters, both related and unrelated to MDR, which have been studied in osteosarcoma and Ewing's sarcoma. Since different backbone drugs used in first-line or rescue chemotherapy for these two rare bone sarcomas are substrates of ABC transporters, this review particularly focused on studies that have provided findings that have been either translated to clinical practice or have indicated new candidate therapeutic targets; however, findings obtained from ABC transporters that were not directly involved in drug resistance were also discussed, in order to provide a more complete overview of the biological impacts of these molecules in osteosarcoma and Ewing's sarcoma. Finally, therapeutic strategies and agents aimed to circumvent ABC-mediated chemoresistance were discussed to provide future perspectives about possible treatment improvements of these neoplasms.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Interindividual differences in drug response are a frequent clinical challenge partly due to variation in pharmacokinetics. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters are crucial determinants of drug disposition. They are subject of gene regulation and drug-interaction; however, it is still under debate to which extend genetic variants in these transporters contribute to interindividual variability of a wide range of drugs. AREAS COVERED This review discusses the current literature on the impact of genetic variants in ABCB1, ABCG2 as well as ABCC1, ABCC2, and ABCC3 on pharmacokinetics and drug response. The aim was to evaluate if results from recent studies would increase the evidence for potential clinically relevant pharmacogenetic effects. EXPERT OPINION Although enormous efforts have been made to investigate effects of ABC transporter genotypes on drug pharmacokinetics and response, the majority of studies showed only weak if any associations. Despite few unique results, studies mostly failed to confirm earlier findings or still remained inconsistent. The impact of genetic variants on drug bioavailability is only minor and other factors regulating the transporter expression and function seem to be more critical. In our opinion, the findings on the so far investigated genetic variants in ABC efflux transporters are not suitable as predictive biomarkers.

Abstract
In the past decades, new cancer treatments have been introduced in pediatric oncology leading to improvement in clinical outcomes and survival rates. However, due to inter-individual differences, some children experience severe chemotherapy-induced toxicities or a poor clinical outcome. An explanation for the diversity in response to chemotherapy is genetic variation, leading to differences in expression and activity of metabolizing and transport enzymes as well as drug targets. Pharmacogenetic testing has emerged as a promising tool to predict and limit acute and long-term adverse effects in patients. However, in pediatric oncology, limited number of patients and a considerable diversity in study results complicate the interpretation of test results and its clinical relevance. With this review, we provide an overview of new developments over the past four years regarding relevant polymorphisms related to toxicity in pediatric oncology. The following chemotherapeutics and associated toxicities are discussed: alkylating agents, anthracyclines, asparaginase, methotrexate, platinum compounds, steroids, thiopurines, topoisomerase inhibitors, and vinca alkaloids. Our review identifies several questions regarding the role of genetic variants in chemotherapy-induced toxicities. Ambiguities in the literature stem from small population sizes, differences in (statistical) interpretation and variations in sequencing technologies as well as different clinical outcome definitions. Standardization of clinical outcome data and toxicity definitions within electronic health records combined with the increased availability of genomic sequence techniques in clinical practice will help to validate these models in upcoming years.

Abstract
High-grade osteosarcoma (HGOS) is a very aggressive bone tumor which primarily affects adolescents and young adults. Although not advanced as is the case for other cancers, pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic studies applied to HGOS have been providing hope for an improved understanding of the biology and the identification of genetic biomarkers, which may impact on clinical care management. Recent developments of pharmacogenetics and pharmacogenomics in HGOS are expected to: i) highlight genetic events that trigger oncogenesis or which may act as drivers of disease; ii) validate research models that best predict clinical behavior; and iii) indicate genetic biomarkers associated with clinical outcome (in terms of treatment response, survival probability and susceptibility to chemotherapy-related toxicities). The generated body of information may be translated to clinical settings, in order to improve both effectiveness and safety of conventional chemotherapy trials as well as to indicate new tailored treatment strategies. Here, we review and summarize the current scientific evidence for each of the aforementioned issues in view of possible clinical applications.

Abstract
Objectives Previous genome-wide association study showed that GLDC/IL33 loci were associated with overall survival in patients with osteosarcoma (OS). We performed a replication study to explore whether variants of GLDC/IL33 are associated with the survival of OS patients and to further verify their functional role in the gene expression. Methods A total of 216 patients with OS were enrolled. The overall survival time was calculated from the date of diagnosis till the date of last follow-up or mortality. Two SNPs were genotyped, including rs55933544 and rs74438701. OS specimens were obtained from 72 patients during surgery. The gene expression level of IL33 and GLDC was evaluated by qPCR. Patients were classified into two groups according to the 5-year overall survival (death/survival). The chi-square test was used to analyze difference of genotype frequency. The Student t-test was used to compare the gene expression level between different genotypes. Cumulative survival time was calculated by the Kaplan–Meier method and analyzed by the log-rank test. Results Genotype TT of rs55933544 was significantly associated with the event of death (0.176 vs. 0.061, p < 0.001). Patients with no risk allele T of rs55933544 showed a 5-year overall survival of 81.4% (110/141), which was significantly higher than an overall survival of 55.0% (29/54) for patients with one risk allele and 44.8% (12/21) for patients with two risk alleles (p < 0.01). Genotype TT of rs55933544 were indicative of remarkably lower expression of IL33 than genotype CC (0.00041 ± 0.00025 vs. 0.00065 ± 0.00031, p = 0.04). Patients with low IL33 expression presented remarkably worse survival as compared with the patients with high IL33 expression (p < .01) Conclusions Variant rs55933544 was associated with the survival time of OS patients. IL33 may contribute to a poor prognosis of OS. Further investigation into the biological mechanisms by which IL33 influences the overall survival can shed light on the improvement of clinical outcome for OS patients.

Abstract
TP53 is a tumor suppressor gene which is essential for regulating cell division and preventing tumor formation. Several studies have assessed the associations of TP53 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) with susceptibility of malignant bone tumors, including osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma, but the results are inconsistent. In the present meta-analysis, we aimed to elucidate the associations of TP53 rs1042522 genetic polymorphism with the risk of osteosarcoma or Ewing sarcoma. We systematically searched Medline, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library databases. Eligible studies assessing the polymorphisms in the TP53 rs1042522 gene and risk of malignant bone tumors were incorporated. The pooled odds ratio (OR) with its 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were used to assess these possible associations. Five studies with a total of 567 cases and 935 controls were finally included the meta-analysis. Meta-analysis of TP53 rs1042522 polymorphism was significantly associated with an increased risk of malignant bone tumors (G versus C: OR = 1.27, 95% CI 1.08–1.50, P=0.005; GG versus GC/CC: OR = 1.55, 95% CI 1.21–2.00, P=0.001). Moreover, in a stratified analysis, a statistically significant correlation between this SNP and osteosarcoma risk was also observed. Our results suggest that there are significant associations of TP53 rs1042522 polymorphism with malignant bone tumors risk. More studies based on larger sample sizes and homogeneous samples are warranted to confirm these findings.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION DNA damaging drugs are widely used for the chemotherapeutic treatment of high-grade osteosarcoma (HGOS). In HGOS patients, several germline polymorphisms have been reported to impact on the development of adverse toxic events related to DNA damaging drugs treatment. Some of these polymorphisms, when present in tumor cells, may also influence treatment response and prognosis of HGOS patients. Area covered: In this review, the authors have focused on pharmacogenetic markers (mainly germline polymorphisms) described in patients with HGOS, which have proved or indicated to be related to the susceptibility to adverse toxic reactions and/or to influence response to DNA damaging drugs. The concordant and discordant results reported in different studies have also been discussed. Expert opinion: Response and toxicity predisposition to DNA damaging drugs are influenced by genes encoding proteins involved in their uptake, efflux, activation, inactivation, and in DNA repair, activity of which may vary according to specific gene variations. In HGOS, there is a substantial medical need for biomarkers predictive for individual response and toxicity predisposition to DNA-targeting drugs, which may be used to tailor therapy in order to decrease the occurrence of adverse side effects and increase treatment efficacy and safety.

Abstract
Background: Nephrotoxicity is a notable adverse effect in cisplatin treated patients characterized by tubular injury and/or increased serum creatinine (SCr) with incidence varying from 20 to 70%. Pharmacogenomics has been shown to identify strongly predictive genetic markers to help determine which patients are more likely to experience, for example, a serious adverse drug reaction or receive optimal benefit through enhanced efficacy. Genetic variations have been reported to influence the risk of cisplatin nephrotoxicity; however, a comprehensive overview is lacking. Methods: A systematic review was performed using Pubmed, Embase and Web of Science on clinical studies that used cisplatin-based chemotherapy as treatment, had available genotyping data, and evaluated nephrotoxicity as an outcome. The quality of reporting was assessed using the STrengthening the REporting of Genetic Association Studies (STREGA) checklist. Results: Twenty-eight eligible studies were included; all were candidate gene studies. Over 300 SNPs across 135 genes were studied; 29 SNPs in 14 genes were significantly associated with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. A variation in SLC22A2 rs316019, a gene involved in platinum uptake by the kidney, was associated with different measures of nephrotoxicity in four independent studies. Further, variants of ERCC1 (rs11615 and rs3212986) and ERCC2 (rs13181), two genes involved in DNA repair, were found to be positively associated with increased risks of nephrotoxicity in two independent studies. Conclusion: Three genes consistently associated with cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity. Further research is needed to assess the biological mechanism and the clinical value of modifying treatment based on SLCC22A2 and ERCC1/2 genotypes.

Abstract
Background The treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and osteosarcoma (OSC) is very effective: the vast majority of patients recover and survive for decades. However, they still need to face serious adverse effects of chemotherapy. One of these is cardiotoxicity which may lead to progressive heart failure in the long term. Cardiotoxicity is contributed mainly to the use of anthracyclines and might have genetic risk factors. Our goal was to test the association between left ventricular function and genetic variations of candidate genes. Methods Echocardiography data from medical records of 622 pediatric ALL and 39 OSC patients were collected from the period 1989–2015. Fractional shortening (FS) and ejection fraction (EF) were determined, 70 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 26 genes were genotyped. Multivariate logistic regression and multi-adjusted general linear model were performed to investigate the influence of genetic polymorphisms on the left ventricular parameters. Bayesian network based Bayesian multilevel analysis of relevance (BN-BMLA) method was applied to test for the potential interaction of the studied cofactors and SNPs. Results Our results indicate that variations in ABCC2, CYP3A5, NQO1, SLC22A6 and SLC28A3 genes might influence the left ventricular parameters. CYP3A5 rs4646450 TT was 17% among ALL cases with FS lower than 28, and 3% in ALL patients without pathological FS (p = 5.60E-03; OR = 6.94 (1.76–27.39)). SLC28A3 rs7853758 AA was 12% in ALL cases population, while only 1% among controls (p = 6.50E-03; OR = 11.56 (1.98–67.45)). Patients with ABCC2 rs3740066 GG genotype had lower FS during the acute phase of therapy and 5–10 years after treatment (p = 7.38E-03, p = 7.11E-04, respectively). NQO1 rs1043470 rare T allele was associated with lower left ventricular function in the acute phase and 5–10 years after the diagnosis (p = 4.28E-03 and 5.82E-03, respectively), and SLC22A6 gene rs6591722 AA genotype was associated with lower mean FS (p = 1.71E-03), 5–10 years after the diagnosis. Conclusions Genetic variants in transporters and metabolic enzymes might modulate the individual risk to cardiac toxicity after chemotherapy.

Abstract
Osteosarcoma (OS) is a prevalent cancer worldwide. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play critical roles in the growth, invasion and carcinogenesis of OS, whereas the underlying mechanisms remain ill-defined. Here, we addressed these questions. We detected significantly higher levels of ZNRF2, a ubiquitin ligase of the RING superfamily, and significantly lower levels of miR-100 in the OS specimens, compared to the paired normal bone tissues. The levels of ZNRF2 and miR-100 inversely correlated in the OS specimens. In addition, low miR-100 levels are associated with poor prognosis of the OS patients. Either ZNRF2 overexpression or miR-100 depletion increased in vitro OS cell growth and improved cell survival at the presence of Doxorubicin. Mechanistically, with the help of bioinformatics analysis and luciferase-reporter assay, we found that miR-100 might bind to the 3’-UTR of ZNRF2 mRNA to prevent its protein translation. Thus, our data suggest that re-expression of miR-100 may inhibit OS cell growth and decrease OS cell chemo-resistance.

Abstract
Numerous studies have suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) are dysregulated in osteosarcoma (OS), implicating miRNAs in OS initiation and progression. Therefore, knowledge of aberrantly expressed miRNAs in OS may provide novel mechanistic insights into the tumorigenesis and tumor development of OS and facilitate therapeutic methods for patients with this aggressive bone neoplasm. In this study, data obtained from reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) revealed that miR-935 was significantly decreased in OS tissues and cell lines. Restoration expression of miR-935 obviously restricted proliferation and invasion of OS cells. In addition, high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) was predicted to be a putative target of miR-935. Subsequent dual-luciferase reporter assay, RT-qPCR, and Western blot analysis confirmed that miR-935 could directly target the 3′-untranslated region of HMGB1 and negatively regulated HMGB1 expression in OS cells. Furthermore, a significant negative association was found between miR-935 and HMGB1 mRNA expression in OS tissues. Rescue experiments showed that recovery of HMGB1 expression partially rescued miR-935-induced suppression of cell proliferation and invasion in OS. These results provide the first evidence for the suppressive roles of miR-935 in OS by directly targeting HMGB1, suggesting that miR-935 may be a potential candidate for the treatment of patients with this disease.

Abstract
Increasing evidence indicates that microRNAs(miRNAs) are often aberrantly expressed in osteosarcoma (OS) and play critical roles in OS tumorigenesis. Therefore, the discovery of miRNAs may provide a new and powerful tool for understanding the mechanismof OS initiation and development. The aim of this study was to investigate the functional significance of miR-365 and identify its possible mechanism in OS cells. Here, wefound that the expression level of miR-365 is significantly downregulated in OS tissues and cell lines, and its expression isassociated with the clinical stage, distant metastasis, tumor grade, and poor overall survival rate. The overexpression of miR-365 is able to inhibit cell proliferation, migration, and invasion in Saos-2 and MG-63 cells. Moreover, the cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61 (CYR61) has been identified as a target of miR-365 in OS cells, and its expression is found to be significantly increased in OS tissues, which is negatively correlated with miR-365. Furthermore, CYR61 overexpression significantly attenuated the suppressive effects of miR-365 on the proliferation, migration, and invasion of Saos-2 and MG-63 cells. Therefore, we consider that miR-365 acts as a tumor suppressor in OS, partly, by targeting CYR61 expression.

Abstract
MicroRNA-152 (miR-152) expression has been reported to be downregulated in osteosarcoma (OS). However, the role of miR-152 in OS is not well documented. In the present study, we aimed to explore the function and underlying mechanism of miR-152 in OS. We found that miR-152 was underexpressed in OS tissues and cell lines. Decreased miR-152 was inversely correlated with lymph node metastasis and advanced clinical stage. Overexpression of miR-152 significantly inhibited cell proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion of OS cells. Bioinformatics analyses showed that miR-152 directly targeted E2F transcription factor 3 (E2F3), as further confirmed by a dual-luciferase reporter assay. E2F3 expression was upregulated and inversely correlated with miR-152 expression level in human OS tissues. Moreover, the inhibitory effects of miR-152 on OS growth and invasion were attenuated by E2F3 overexpression. Taken together, our findings indicated that miR-152 reduced OS growth and invasion by targeting E2F3 and provided new evidence of miR-152 as a potential therapeutic target for OS.

Abstract
To investigate correlations between excision repair cross-complementation group 1 (ERCC1) and 2 (ERCC2) polymorphisms and osteosarcoma prognosis, we conducted a meta-analysis of studies published through October 2016. Studies were identified in the PubMed, ScienceDirect, Springer, and Web of Science databases using preferred reporting items for systematic reviews and meta-analyses (PRISMA). Odds ratios (ORs) or hazard ratios (HRs) and their 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for overall survival (OS), tumor response (TR), and event-free survival (EFS) were estimated. Our meta-analysis included eleven studies in which four SNPs (ERCC1 rs11615 and rs3212986, ERCC2 rs13181 and rs1799793) reportedly associated with osteosarcoma prognosis were investigated. Each of these studies scored > 6 on the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). We found that only one SNP, ERCC1 rs11615, correlated with improved OS and TR. The HR of T vs. C for OS was 1.455 (T/C, 95% CI = 1.151–1.839, P = 0.002, I2 = 37.80%). The OR of T vs. C for good TR was 0.554 (T/C, 95% CI = 0.437–0.702, P < 0.001, I2 = 0%). Few significant outcome was observed in subgroup analyses stratified based on study characteristics with adjustments for potential confounders. Our results suggest that ERCC1 rs11615 CC is associated with a better clinical outcome. This suggests rs11615 may be a useful genetic marker for predicting osteosarcoma prognosis.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that polymorphisms in folate pathway genes play a role in response to methotrexate (MTX) treatment in various diseases. This study explored the influence of these genetic polymorphisms on treatment outcome in pediatric osteosarcoma. Blood and tissue samples from 48 osteosarcoma patients were obtained, and the following polymorphisms were analyzed; SLC19A1 80G>A, DHFR 829C>T, MTHFR 677C>T, MTHFR 1298A>C, and ATIC 347C>G. We evaluated associations between these candidate gene polymorphisms and treatment outcome, including histologic response and event-free and overall survival, of patients treated with high-dose MTX. Patients with ATIC 347C>G exhibited a good histologic response to chemotherapy (odds ratio, 0.13; 95% confidence interval, 0.017-0.978; P=0.048). However, none of these single nucleotide polymorphisms we examined affected event-free survival or overall survival rates of the patients. Even though the role of single nucleotide polymorphisms of ATIC in chemotherapy-induced tumor necrosis has not been investigated yet, the ATIC 347C>G polymorphism may influence the levels of adenosine after MTX treatment, which may affect the histologic response of osteosarcoma. This relationship warrants validation in a larger, prospective cohort study.

Abstract
Second-line treatment of high-grade osteosarcoma (HGOS) patients is based on different approaches and chemotherapy protocols, which are not yet standardized. Although several drugs have been used in HGOS second-line protocols, none of them has provided fully satisfactory results and the role of rescue chemotherapy is not well defined yet. This article focuses on the drugs that have most frequently been used for second-line treatment of HGOS, highlighting the present knowledge on their mechanisms of action and resistance and on gene polymorphisms with possible impact on treatment sensitivity or toxicity. In the near future, validation of the so far identified candidate genetic biomarkers may constitute the basis for tailoring treatment by taking the patients' genetic background into account.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Antifolates are structural analogs of folates, which have been used as antitumor drugs for more than 60 years. The antifolate drug most commonly used for treating human tumors is methotrexate (MTX), which is utilized widely in first-line treatment protocols of high-grade osteosarcoma (HGOS). In addition to MTX, two other antifolates, trimetrexate and pemetrexed, have been tested in clinical settings for second-line treatment of recurrent HGOS with patients unfortunately showing modest activity. Areas covered: There is clinical evidence which suggsest that, like other chemotherapeutic agents, not all HGOS patients are equally responsive to antifolates and do not have the same susceptibility to experience adverse drug-related toxicities. Here, we summarize the pharmacogenomic information reported so far for genes involved in antifolate metabolism and transport and in MTX-related toxicity in HGOS patients. Expert opinion: Identification and validation of genetic biomarkers that significantly impact clinical antifolate treatment response and related toxicity may provide the basis for a future treatment modulation based on the pharmacogenetic and pharmacogenomic features of HGOS patients.
