Gehling GM, Powell-Roach K, Wilkie DJ, Dungan JR. Single nucleotide polymorphisms and sickle cell disease-related pain: a systematic review. FRONTIERS IN PAIN RESEARCH 2023; 4:1223309. [PMID: 37781219 PMCID: PMC10538969 DOI: 10.3389/fpain.2023.1223309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Scientists have speculated genetic variants may contribute to an individual's unique pain experience. Although research exists regarding the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms and sickle cell disease-related pain, this literature has not been synthesized to help inform future precision health research for sickle cell disease-related pain. Our primary aim of this systematic review was to synthesize the current state of scientific literature regarding single nucleotide polymorphisms and their association with sickle cell disease-related pain. Methods Using the Prisma guidelines, we conducted our search between December 2021-April 2022. We searched PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, and Embase databases (1998-2022) and selected all peer-reviewed articles that included reports of associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms and sickle cell disease-related pain outcomes. Results Our search yielded 215 articles, 80 of which were duplicates, and after two reviewers (GG, JD) independently screened the 135 non-duplicate articles, we retained 22 articles that met the study criteria. The synthesis of internationally generated evidence revealed that this scientific area remains predominantly exploratory in nature, with only three studies reporting sufficient power for genetic association. Sampling varied across studies with a range of children to older adults with SCD. All of the included articles (n = 22) examined acute pain, while only nine of those studies also examined chronic pain. Conclusion Currently, the evidence implicating genetic variation contributing to acute and chronic sickle cell disease-related pain is characterized by modestly powered candidate-gene studies using rigorous SCD-pain outcomes. Effect sizes and directions vary across studies and are valuable for informing the design of future studies. Further research is needed to replicate these associations and extend findings with hypothesis-driven research to inform precision health research.

Pain-Related Gene Solute Carrier Family 24 Member 3 Is a Prognostic Biomarker and Correlated with Immune Infiltrates in Cervical Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Endocervical Adenocarcinoma: A Study via Integrated Bioinformatics Analyses and Experimental Verification. COMPUTATIONAL AND MATHEMATICAL METHODS IN MEDICINE 2023; 2023:4164232. [PMID: 36798148 PMCID: PMC9928512 DOI: 10.1155/2023/4164232] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2022] [Revised: 10/13/2022] [Accepted: 11/24/2022] [Indexed: 02/10/2023]
Abstract
The aim of this study was to explore cervical carcinoma and screen a suitable gene as the biomarker used for prognosis evaluation as well as pain therapy. Low expression levels of solute carrier family 24 member 3 (SLC24A3) was involved in the appearance and development of numerous malignancies. Nevertheless, the prognostic value of SLC24A3 expression with cervical squamous cell carcinoma and endocervical adenocarcinoma (CESC) patients remains uncertain. During the present study, SLC24A3 expression in CESC was retrieved from TCGA, GEO, and MSigDB databases. Based on TCGA and GEO profiles, we performed survival and difference analyses about SLC24A3 both in two GEO (GSE44001 and GSE63514) and TCGA-CESC cohorts (all p < 0.05), indicating that SLC24A3 was low expressed in tumors and associated with higher overall survival in CESC patients. Additionally, we programmed a series of analyses, including genomic profiling, enrichment analysis, immune infiltration analysis, and therapy-related analysis to identify the mechanism of the SLC24A3 in the process of cancer in CESC. Meanwhile, qRT-PCR was used to validate that the expression of SLC24A3 mRNA in Hela and SiHa cell lines was significantly lower than in PANC-1 and HUCEC cell lines. Our finding elucidated that the SLC24A3, a sodium-calcium regulator of cells, is an indispensable factor which can significantly influence the prognosis of patients with CESC and could provide novel clinical evidence to serve as a potential biological indicator for future diagnosis and pain therapy.

Abstract
Axial postural abnormalities and pain are two main determinants of poor quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Indeed, a detailed characterization of pain and other non-motor symptoms in patients with PAs has not been provided yet. The aim of this study is to assess the phenomenology of pain and other non-motor symptoms in PD patients with Pisa syndrome and camptocormia compared to PD patients without axial postural abnormality. Forty-five PD participants were equally distributed in three groups: patients with Pisa syndrome (PS), patients with Camptocormia (CC), and patients without postural abnormalities (PD). Pain characteristics were assessed by Kings Parkinson's Pain Scale (KPPS), brief pain inventory (BPI), and numeric pain rating scale (NRS). All participants completed clinical assessments by non-motor symptom scale (NMSS), and movement disorder society Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) parts II-III. Patients with and without axial postural abnormalities showed one or more types of pain, being fluctuation, nocturnal, chronic, and musculoskeletal the most frequently reported in Pisa Syndrome and camptocormia. PD group compared with PS and CC groups showed differences in the KPPS, NMSS, BPI pain severity and interference, and NRS total scores. No significant differences were found between PS group compared with CC group with exception of the NMSS total scores. PD patients with Pisa syndrome or camptocormia have a higher burden of musculoskeletal, chronic and fluctuation pain than PD patients without axial postural abnormalities, suggesting different etiologies of pain and possible different treatments.

[PMID: 34210342 PMCID: PMC8247225 DOI: 10.1186/s13018-021-02549-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2021] [Accepted: 06/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Background The growth differentiation factor 5 (GDF5) gene regulates the growth of neuronal axons and dendrites and plays a role in the inflammatory response and tissue damage. The gene may also be associated with chronic postsurgical pain. This study aimed to reveal the relationship between SNPs in the GDF5 gene and orthopedic chronic postsurgical pain in Han Chinese population based on a case-control study. Methods We genotyped 8 SNPs within GDF5 gene in 1048 surgical patients with chronic postsurgical pain as the case group and 2062 surgical patients who were pain free as the control group. SNP and haplotypic analyses were performed, and stratified analyses were conducted to determine the correlations between significant SNPs and clinical characteristics. Results Only rs143384 in the 5′UTR of GDF5 was identified as significantly associated with increased susceptibility to chronic postsurgical pain, and the risk of A allele carriers was increased approximately 1.35-fold compared with that of G allele carriers. Haplotypes AGG and GGG in the LD block rs143384-rs224335-rs739329 also showed similar association patterns. Furthermore, we found that rs143384 was significantly correlated with chronic postsurgical pain in the subgroup aged ≤ 61 years, subgroup with a BMI ≤ 26, subgroup with no-smoking or no pain history, and subgroup with a drinking history. Conclusion Our study provided supportive evidence that genetic variations in the GDF5 gene are potential genetic factors that can increase the risk of chronic postsurgical pain in the Han Chinese population, but further research is necessary to elucidate the underlying mechanism.
