Abstract
Urolithiasis is one of the most common urological diseases worldwide with an unclear aetiology. However, a growing body of evidence suggests the potential role of molecular disturbances of the inflammation as well as oxidative and nitrative stresses, in the pathogenesis of urolithiasis. Therefore, we aimed to detect the potential association between six selected single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and the development of nephrolithiasis. Moreover, we verified the association of urolithiasis development and mRNA expression of IL-6, IL-8, SOD2, and NOS2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Total genomic DNA and mRNA were isolated from the peripheral blood of 112 patients with urolithiasis and 114 healthy subjects. Using Taq-Man® probes, we genotyped the following SNPs: rs1800797 and rs2069845 in IL-6, rs2227307 in IL-8, rs4880 in SOD2, rs2297518 and rs2779249 in NOS2. In turn, the evaluation of mRNA expression was performed using real-time PCR and 2-ΔCt methods. We found that the C/T genotype of the c.47 T>C-SOD2 SNP increased the frequency of urolithiasis occurrence whereas the T/T homozygote of the same polymorphism decreased the risk of urolithiasis development in the Polish population. Moreover, our study confirmed that patients with urolithiasis were characterised by decreased IL-6, IL-8, and SOD2 mRNA expression levels compared to the controls. In conclusion, our results suggest that polymorphic variants and changes in mRNA expression of IL-6, IL8, SOD2, and NOS2 may be involved in the pathophysiology of urolithiasis.

Abstract
Bladder cancer (BC) is the 10th most common form of cancer globally, but its complete aetiology is still unknown. Nevertheless, there is evidence that chronic inflammation plays a role in the development and progression of BC. Therefore, the presented study aimed to detect a potential association between selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)—rs1800797 and rs2069845 in IL-6 and rs2227307 in IL-8—and BC development, as well as to identify the impact of BC on the level of expression and methylation of IL-6 and IL-8 promoters in PBMCs with the use of the TaqMan SNP genotyping assay, TaqMan gene expression assay, and methylation-sensitive high-resolution melting techniques. We did not find any association between the genotypes and combined genotypes of all studied polymorphisms and the occurrence of BC. However, we found that BC patients were characterised by decreased IL-6 and IL-8 mRNA expression levels compared to the controls. Additionally, the methylation status of the IL-6 promoter was higher in controls than in BC patients. Our findings suggest that inflammation may be involved in the development and progression of BC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We conducted a comprehensive analysis to explore whether multiple interleukin (IL), IL-1β, IL-4, IL-6, IL-8 and IL-10, polymorphisms and IL proteins (IL-6, IL-10) relate to lung cancer (LC) susceptibility or clinical characteristics. METHODS We performed the standard meta-analysis procedures according to PRISMA. The odds ratio (OR) and mean difference (MD) were used for analysis. RESULTS We investigated 11 variants from 43 articles, and found that IL-1β rs16944 (p = 0.04) and IL-10 rs1800872 (p = 0.003) decreased while IL-10 rs1800896 (p = 0.007) increased LC risks. We also found that IL-1β rs1143627 decreased NSCLC risks (p = 0.03). The heterozygotes and homozygotes contributed differently. In addition, another 15 articles were involved to explore the relationship between IL proteins and LC. We found that LC patients accounted for higher serum IL-6 of 16.60 pg/mL (p < 0.00001) and higher serum IL-10 of 3.47 pg/mL (p = 0.02) than that of controls. Furthermore, IIIA-Ⅳ LC patients tended to have higher proportion of positive IL-6 staining in lung tumor tissue in contrast with IA-IIB patients by TNM stage (p = 0.0002). CONCLUSIONS Four variants from IL-1β and IL-10, and serum IL-6 and IL-10 levels are associated with LC risks.

Abstract
BACKGROUND ALOX5, IL6R and SFTPD are all immune related genes that may be involved in the development of lung cancer. We sought to explore the effect of polymorphisms of these genes on the risk of lung cancer. METHODS Six single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped using a MassARRAY platform in a case-control cohort including 550 patients with lung cancer and 550 healthy controls. RESULTS The rs4845626-T and rs4329505-C alleles were associated with a decreased risk of lung cancer (p < 0.001), while the rs745986-G and rs2245121-A alleles were correlated with an increased risk of lung cancer (p < 0.01). The rs4845626-GT/GG and rs4329505-TC genotypes were protective against lung cancer (p < 0.001). However, the rs745986-AG and rs2245121-AG/AA genotypes were associated with an increased risk of lung cancer (p < 0.01). Stratification analysis showed that the rs4845626 and rs4329505 polymorphisms of IL6R were associated with a reduced risk of lung cancer in both smokers and nonsmokers (p < 0.05). However, rs892690, rs745986 and rs2115819 of ALOX5 were associated with an increased risk of disease in nonsmokers, while rs2245121 of SFTPD was correlated with a higher risk of disease in smokers (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Our results provide candidate SNPs for early screening for lung cancer and new clues for further study of the pathogenesis of the disease.

Abstract
Many molecular epidemiologic studies have shown that interleukin-6 (IL-6) polymorphisms are significantly associated with susceptibility for various cancers. However, the conclusions of these studies are inconsistent. The purpose of the present study was to explore the association between three common IL-6 loci (rs1800795, rs1800796, and rs1800797) and the risk for various cancers. We systematically searched the PubMed, Web of Science, Wanfang and China national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI) databases for relevant publications and obtained 108 eligible studies, involving 49,408 cancer patients and 61,790 cancer-free controls. Odds ratio (OR), 95% confidence interval (CI), and false positive reporting probability (FPRP) were used to evaluate cancer risk. All statistical analyses were performed using the R software meta package. We observed a non-significant association between rs1800795 and overall cancer risk, while rs1800797 was found to have a false positive association with overall risk of cancer. Subgroup analyses of rs1800797 also suggested non-significant association and rs1800795 played a protective role in liver cancer. Rs1800796 was found to be associated with overall cancer risk, particularly in Asian patients and those with prostate cancer. These findings provide evidence that IL-6 polymorphisms may affect cancer risk.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Surgery is the standard treatment for early-stage NSCLC, and platinum-based chemotherapy remains as the treatment of choice for advanced-stage NSCLC patients with naïve EGFR status. However, overall 5-years relative survival rates are low. Interleukins (ILs) are crucial for processes associated with tumor development. In NSCLC, IL1B, IL6, IL12A, IL13 and IL16 gene polymorphisms may contribute to individual variation in terms of patient survival. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between IL gene polymorphisms and survival in NSCLC patients. METHODS A prospective cohorts study was performed, including 170 NSCLC patients (114 Stage IIIB-IV, 56 Stage I-IIIA). IL1B (C > T; rs1143634), IL1B (C > T; rs12621220), IL1B (C > G; rs1143623), IL1B (A > G; rs16944), IL1B (C > T; rs1143627), IL6 (C > G; rs1800795), IL12A (C > T; rs662959), IL13 (A > C; rs1881457) and IL16 (G > T; rs7170924) gene polymorphisms were analyzed by PCR Real-Time. RESULTS Patients with IL16 rs7170924-GG genotype were in higher risk of death (p = 0.0139; HR = 1.82; CI95% = 1.13-2.94) Furthermore, carriers of the TT genotype for IL12A rs662959 presented higher risk of progression in the non-resected NSCLC patient subgroup (p = 0.0412; HR = 4.49; CI95% = 1.06-18.99). The rest of polymorphisms showed no effect of on outcomes. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that IL16 rs7170924-GG and IL12A rs662959-TT genotypes predict higher risk of death and progression, respectively, in NSCLC patients. No influence of IL1B rs12621220, IL1B rs1143623, IL1B rs16944, IL1B rs1143627, IL6 rs1800795, IL13 rs1881457 on NSCLC clinical outcomes was found in our patients.

Abstract
AIMS To investigate the clinical significance of tumor tissue-infiltrating chemokines expression in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) microenvironment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fresh tissue samples were acquired from 50 patients with NSCLC after operation. Then, we quantified the total protein with the BCA Protein Assay Kit and tested 13 chemotactic factors in paired samples including tumor tissues, tumor adjacent tissues, and normal tissues with the CBA Kit. RESULTS We found that the chemokine CC subfamily of MCP-1, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, and MIP-3α and the chemokine CXC subfamily of IL-8, GROα, IP-10, and MIG expressions in tumor tissues were significantly higher than those in tumor-adjacent tissues and normal tissues. However, regulated upon activation normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), human thymus activation regulated chemokine (TARC), chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 11 (CCL11), interferon-inducible T cell alpha chemoattractant (I-TAC), and ENA-78 expressions did not show significant difference. Analyzing the influence of chemokine expression level in tumor tissues on disease progression, we found the median progression-free survival (mPFS) of patients with GROαhigh was significantly lower than those with GROαlow; mPFS of patients with IP-10low was significantly lower than those with IP-10high; and mPFS of patients with MIGlow was significantly lower than those with MIGhigh. However, MCP-1, MIP-1α, MIP-1β, MIP-3α, and IL-8 had no significant value to elevate the mPFS of patients with NSCLC. CONCLUSION In summary, tumor tissue-infiltrating CXC chemokines, GROαhigh, IP-10low, and MIGlow in the tumor microenvironment can be used as potential indicators for the progression of NSCLC.

Abstract
Playing critical roles in immune responses, interleukin-6 (IL-6) has been proposed to be involved in the development of multiple cancers, including prostate cancer. The rs1800795 polymorphism in the promoter of the gene IL-6 can affect the transcription and expression of the gene, becoming a common target in association studies on tumors. We therefore carried out this meta-analysis to further discuss the relationship of this polymorphism with the risk of prostate cancer.Relevant publications were retrieved from the electronic databases. The strength of the correlation between IL-6 rs1800795 polymorphism and prostate cancer risk was evaluated using pooled odds ratios (ORs) with their 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs). Q test was adopted to examine between-study heterogeneity, with P < 0.05 as significant level. Subgroup and meta-regression analyses were conducted to explore potential source of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis was implemented to test the statistical stability of the final results. In addition, funnel plot and Egger test were employed to inspect publication bias among included studies.A total of 13 132 cases and 15 282 controls were ultimately incorporated into the present study. Overall estimates revealed no significant relationship between IL-6 rs1800795 polymorphism and prostate cancer risk in total analysis, but a risk-increasing effect of the polymorphism was detected in African-American subgroup under CC versus GG and CC versus GG + GC contrasts (OR 3.43, 95% CI 1.01-11.71; OR 3.51, 95% CI 1.04-11.82) after subgroup analysis by ethnicity.IL-6 rs1800795 polymorphism may enhance the susceptibility to prostate cancer in African-American men.

We examined IL-6 effects on growth, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process, and metastatic ability of CD133+ and CD133– cell subpopulations isolated from three non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines: A549, H157, and H1299. We developed IL-6 knocked-down and scramble (sc) control cells of A549 and H157 cell lines by lentiviral infection system, isolated CD133+ and CD133– sub-populations, and investigated the IL-6 role in self-renewal/growth of these cells. IL-6 showed either an inhibitory or lack of effect in modulating growth of CD133– cells depending on intracellular IL-6 levels, but there was higher self-renewal ability of IL-6 expressing CD133+ cells than IL-6 knocked down cells, confirming the promoter role of IL-6 in CD133+ cells growth. We then examined tumor growth of xenografts developed from CD133+ cells of A549IL-6si vs. A549sc cell lines. Consistently, there was retarded growth of tumors developed from A549IL-6si, CD133+ cells compared to tumors originating from A549sc, CD133+ cells. The effect of IL-6 in promoting CD133+ self-renewal was due to hedgehog (Hhg) and Erk signaling pathway activation and higher Bcl-2/Bcl-xL expression. We also investigated whether IL-6 regulates the EMT process of CD133− and CD133+ cells differently. Expression of the EMT/metastasis-associated molecules in IL-6 expressing cells was higher than in IL-6 knocked down cells. Together, we demonstrated dual roles of IL-6 in regulating growth of CD133– and CD133+ subpopulations of lung cancer cells and significant regulation of IL-6 on EMT/metastasis increase in CD133+ cells, not in CD133– cells.
