Abstract
IGFBP1 plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of preeclampsia (PE), but the association between single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of IGFBP1 gene and PE susceptibility has not yet been determined. In our study, 229 women with PE and 361 healthy pregnant (non-PE) women were enrolled to investigate its association via TaqMan genotyping assay. In addition, the protein levels of IGFBP1 under different genotypes were explored by ELISA and IHC. We found that IGFBP1 SNP rs1065780A > G was associated with an decreased risk for PE. Women with GG (P = 0.027) or AG (Padj. = 0.023) genotype manifested a significantly lower risk for PE compared to women with AA genotype. In PE group, women carrying G allele exhibited greater fetal birth weight, lower diastolic BP, and lower levels of ALT and AST. The G genotype was found significantly less frequently in the severe preeclampsia (SPE) group than in the non-PE group (GG vs. AA, P = 0.007; G vs. A, P = 0.006). Additionally, women in the PE group who experienced fetal growth restriction (FGR) reflected a lower level of the allele G than did the non-FGR group (P = 0.032); this was not the case for the non-PE group.Rs1065780A>G elevated IGFBP1 protein level in plasma and decidua in PE group. In conclusion Chinese Han women with the SNP IGFBP1 rs1065780 occupied by G exhibited a lower risk of developing PE relative to women with the A genotype and augured for improved pregnancy outcomes through elevation of IGFBP1 protein level.

Abstract
Background The insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) gene is located within the myopia-associated MYP3 interval, which suggests it may play an important role in the progression of myopia. However, the association between IGF1 SNPs and any myopia is rarely reported. Methods A comprehensive literature search was conducted on studies published up to July 22, 2021 in PubMed, EMBASE, CBM, COCHRANE, CNKI, WANFANG and VIP databases. Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated for single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that have been evaluated in at least three studies. Results Nine studies involving 4596 subjects with any myopia and 4950 controls examined 25 SNPs in IGF1 gene, among which seven SNPs were included in this meta-analysis. Significant associations were not found in any genetic models between rs6214, rs12423791, rs5742632, rs10860862, rs5742629 and any myopia. Rs2162679 was suggestively associated with any myopia in the codominant model (GA vs. AA: OR = 0.87, 95% CI: 0.76–1.00) and the dominant model (GG+GA vs. AA: OR = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.78–1.00). Conclusion Meta-analysis of updated data reveals that the G allele of the IGF1 rs2162679 SNP is a potential protective factor for any myopia, which is worth further researches.

Abstract
Recent studies have identified that long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) might affect the responses to anticancer drug treatment, including colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PVT1 and the chemotherapy response in metastatic colorectal cancer has yet to be clarified. In this study, the PVT1 rs2278176 CT/TT genotypes were found to be associated with an increased overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) compared with the CC genotype. Furthermore, patients harboring the rs2278176 CT/TT genotypes had a greater chance of achieving clinical benefit from 5-Fluorouracil/leucovorin combined with oxaliplatin (FOLFOX). In vivo nude mice experiments demonstrated that the CRISPR/Cas9 mediated rs2278176 C to T mutation significantly inhibited the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer cells treated with 5-Fu, but not control DMSO treated cells. Furthermore, the apoptotic rate was significantly enhanced by treatment with 5-Fu in the CRC cells carrying with the CT/TT genotypes. Functional studies demonstrated that the PVT1 rs2278176 C to T mutation altered the binding site for hsa-miR-297, and that hsa-miR-297 downregulated Glutathione S-Transferase Alpha 2(GSTA2), a member of phase II detoxification enzyme, in an Argonaute 2(Ago2)-dependent manner. Moreover, GSTA2 levels were downregulated in the cancer tissues of patients carrying rs2278176 CT/TT genotypes. High GSTA2 expression predicted poor clinical outcome in metastatic colorectal cancer treated with FOLFOX. In conclusion, this study provided that PVT1 with rs2278176 T allele altered the binding affinity with hsa-miR-297, leading to decreased GSTA2 expression and sensitized CRC cells to FOLFOX chemotherapy, suggesting rs2278176 CT/TT genotypes might serve as a predictive biomarker to improve prognosis in patients with metastatic CRC treated with FOLFOX.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Malignant tumor is a serious threat to human health and life, which is a difficult problem in the world. Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) is an important mitotic factor in vivo. It usually acts in the way of autocrine and paracrine to control the proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of various cells, IGF1 has a strong mitotic and anti-apoptosis activity in malignant cells. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is an important part of individual genetic variation. A large number of studies have shown that IGF1 SNP associated with the risk of a malignant tumor may be an important biomarker for the diagnosis of malignant tumors. Therefore, the article will investigate the association between rs5742612 polymorphism of IGF1 gene and malignant tumor susceptibility. METHODS We searched for studies in five databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang) regarding the association between IGF1 gene rs5742612 and malignant tumor susceptibility. Odds ratios (ORs) and the related 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were employed to assess the strength of the associations. RESULTS Ultimately this study identified seven articles that met the inclusion criteria, involving 2,581 cases and 2,445 controls. There was no significant correlation between IGF1 gene rs5742612 polymorphism and malignant tumor susceptibility [thymidine (T) vs. cytimidine (C), OR =0.99, 95% CI: 0.85-1.15, P=0.91; TC vs. CC: OR =1.03, 95% CI: 0.81-1.32, P=0.79; TT vs. CC: OR =0.92, 95% CI: 0.73-1.17, P=0.52; TT + TC =0.91; TC vs. CC: OR =0.97, 95% CI: 0.77-1.22, P=0.80; TT vs. TC + CC: OR =0.98, 95% CI: 0.81-1.18, P=0.83]. CONCLUSIONS There was no significant association detected between IGF1 gene rs5742612 polymorphism and malignant tumor susceptibility.

Abstract
Esophagogastric junction adenocarcinoma (EGJA) may be associated with obesity and overweight. Thus, any variant in energy metabolism–related gene may influence the development of EGJA. In this study, we recruited 720 EGJA cases and 1541 noncancer controls. We selected IGF2BP2 rs4402960 G > T, rs1470579 A > C,
IGF1 rs5742612 A > G and
IGFBP3 rs3110697 G > A, rs2270628 C > T and rs6953668 G > A loci and assessed the relationship of these polymorphisms with lymph node status and susceptibility of EGJA. We found that
IGF2BP2 rs1470579 A > C and
IGFBP3 rs6953668 G > A polymorphisms were associated with the decreased risk of EGJA (
IGF2BP2 rs1470579: CC vs AA: adjusted odds ratio [OR] = 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.43‐0.98,
P = 0.041 and CC vs AA/AC: adjusted OR = 0.62, 95% CI = 0.41‐0.93,
P = 0.021 and
IGFBP3 rs6953668: GA vs GG: adjusted OR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.47‐0.93,
P = 0.019 and GA/AA vs GG: adjusted OR = 0.68, 95% CI = 0.48‐0.95,
P = 0.026). However, we also found that
IGF1 rs5742612 A > G polymorphism increased the risk of LNM among patients with EGJA (GG vs AA: adjusted OR = 1.88, 95% CI = 1.02‐3.46,
P = 0.042 and GG vs AA/AG: adjusted OR = 1.92, 95% CI = 1.06‐3.47,
P = 0.032). This study suggests that
IGF2BP2 rs1470579 A > C and
IGFBP3 rs6953668 G > A polymorphisms may decrease genetic susceptibility to EGJA in eastern Chinese Han population. In addition, our findings also indicate that
IGF1 rs5742612 A > G polymorphism may increase the susceptibility of LNM among patients with EGJA.

Abstract
The insulin-like growth factor (IGF) system, which is constituted by the IGF-1 and IGF-2 peptide hormones, their corresponding receptors and several IGF binding proteins, is involved in physiological and pathophysiological processes. The IGF system promotes cancer proliferation/survival and its signaling induces the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype, which contributes to the migration, invasiveness, and metastasis of epithelial tumors. These cancers share two major IGF-1R signaling transduction pathways, PI3K/AKT and RAS/MEK/ERK. However, as far as we could review at this time, each type of cancer cell undergoes EMT through tumor-specific routes. Here, we review the tumor-specific molecular signatures of IGF-1-mediated EMT in breast, lung, and gastric cancers.

Abstract
Background This study assessed the prognostic value of GLI1 in gastric cancer and analyzed the possible GLI1-related signaling network in chemosensitivity. Material/Methods Bioinformatic data mining was performed by using data in the TCGA-Stomach Cancer (TCGA-STAD) and the Kaplan-Meier plotter. GLI1 co-expressed genes in TCGA-STAD were subjected to KEGG pathway analysis. The genes enriched in the KEGG pathways were further subjected to Protein-Protein Interaction (PPI) analysis. Results In TCGA-STAD, high GLI1 gene/exon expression was associated with significantly worse survival (p=0.016 and 0.0023 respectively). In the Kaplan-Meier plotter, high GLI1 expression was associated with unfavorable overall survival (OS) (HR: 1.68, 95%CI: 1.42–2, p<0.0001) and first progression-free survival (FPS) (HR: 1.72, 95%CI: 1.4–2.11, p<0.0001). In TCGA-STAD, 600 GLI1 co-expressed genes were identified (absolute Pearson’s r ≥0.5). The most significant pathways were pathways in cancer (p=230.0E-12) and the Hedgehog signaling pathway (p=6.9E-9). PI3K-AKT pathway (p=17.0E-9) has the largest proportion of gene enrichment. Some GLI1 co-expressed genes in the PI3K-AKT pathway are central nodes in the PPI network and also play important roles in chemosensitivity of gastric cancer. Nevertheless, the mechanisms underlying their co-expression are still largely unexplored. Conclusions High GLI1 expression is associated with unfavorable OS and FPS in patients with gastric cancer. As a member of the Hedgehog signaling pathway, GLI1 co-expressed genes are also largely enriched in PI3K/AKT pathway in gastric cancer, which is closely related to chemoresistance. The underlying mechanisms are still largely unexplored and need further study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIMS Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) plays important roles in cellular proliferation, differentiation, and growth. Previous studies showed that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IGF-1 are associated with various diseases. This case-control study aimed to examine the relationship between IGF-1 polymorphisms and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) risk in a Chinese Han population. METHODS We recruited 351 IgAN patients and 310 healthy controls from Northwestern China. Sequenom MassARRAY was utilized to examine the genotypes of two common IGF-1 SNPs (rs1520220 and rs2195239). Odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were calculated by the Chi square test to evaluate the associations between IGF-1 and IgAN. RESULTS Our study demonstrated that IGF-1 gene rs1520220 and rs2195239 polymorphisms did not confer susceptibility to IgAN. We found no correlation between gender, blood pressure, proteinuria, eGFR, and IgAN in both SNPs. However, the rs1520220 and rs2195239 variants were correlated with M1 and E1 in patients with IgAN (M0/M1: CC vs. CG+GG: OR = 1.62, P = 0.04; E0/E1: CC vs. CG+GG: OR = 1.95, P = 0.004; GG vs. GC+CC: OR = 1.90, P = 0.004, respectively). CONCLUSION These results indicate that IGF-1 gene polymorphisms play crucial roles in the histopathological progression of IgAN in the Chinese Han population.

Despite a strong preclinical rationale for targeting the insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis in cancer, clinical studies of IGF-1 receptor (IGF-1R)-targeted monotherapies have been largely disappointing, and any potential success has been limited by the lack of validated predictive biomarkers for patient enrichment. A large body of preclinical evidence suggests that the key role of the IGF axis in cancer is in driving treatment resistance, via general proliferative/survival mechanisms, interactions with other mitogenic signaling networks, and class-specific mechanisms such as DNA damage repair. Consequently, combining IGF-targeted agents with standard cytotoxic agents, other targeted agents, endocrine therapies, or immunotherapies represents an attractive therapeutic approach. Anti-IGF-1R monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) do not inhibit IGF ligand 2 (IGF-2) activation of the insulin receptor isoform-A (INSR-A), which may limit their anti-proliferative activity. In addition, due to their lack of specificity, IGF-1R tyrosine kinase inhibitors are associated with hyperglycemia as a result of interference with signaling through the classical metabolic INSR-B isoform; this may preclude their use at clinically effective doses. Conversely, IGF-1/IGF-2 ligand-neutralizing mAbs inhibit proliferative/anti-apoptotic signaling via IGF-1R and INSR-A, without compromising the metabolic function of INSR-B. Therefore, combination regimens that include these agents may be more efficacious and tolerable versus IGF-1R-targeted combinations. Herein, we review the preclinical and clinical experience with IGF-targeted therapies to-date, and discuss the rationale for future combination approaches as a means to overcome treatment resistance.
