Abstract
Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most common malignancies, with a low 5-year survival rate. However, if diagnosed at an early stage, it can be cured by endoscopic treatment and has a good prognosis. While gastrointestinal X-ray and upper endoscopy are used as national GC screening methods in some GC high-risk countries, such as Japan and Korea, their radiation exposure, invasiveness, and high cost suggest that they are not the optimal tools for early detection of GC in many countries. Therefore, a cost-effective, and highly accurate method for GC early detection is urgently needed in clinical settings. DNA methylation plays a key role in cancer progression and metastasis and has been demonstrated as a promising marker for cancer early detection. Aims and methods: This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current status of DNA methylation markers associated with GC, the assays developed for GC early detection, challenges in methylation marker discovery and application, and the future prospects of utilizing methylation markers for early detection of GC. Through our analysis, we found that the currently reported DNA methylation markers related to GC are mainly in the early discovery stage. Most of them have only been evaluated in tissue samples. The majority of non-invasive assays developed based on blood lack standardized sampling protocols, pre-analytical procedures, and multicenter validation, and they exhibit insufficient sensitivity for early-stage GC detection. Meanwhile, the reported GC DNA methylation markers are generally considered pan-cancer markers. Conclusion: Therefore, future endeavors should focus on identifying additional methylation markers specific to GC and establishing non-invasive diagnostic assays that rely on these markers. These assays should undergo multicenter, large-scale prospective validation in diverse populations.

[PMID: 37403081 DOI: 10.1186/s10020-023-00681-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Accepted: 06/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is one of the most common malignancies occurred in female around the globe. Recent studies have revealed the crucial characters of miRNA and genes, as well as the essential roles of epigenetic regulation in breast cancer initiation and progression. In our previous study, miR-142-3p was identified as a tumor suppressor and led to G2/M arrest through targeting CDC25C. However, the specific mechanism is still uncertain. METHODS We identified PAX5 as the upstream regulator of miR-142-5p/3p through ALGGEN website and verified by series of assays in vitro and in vivo. The expression of PAX5 in breast cancer was detected by qRT-PCR and western blot. Besides, bioinformatics analysis and BSP sequencing were performed to analyze the methylation of PAX5 promoter region. Finally, the binding sites of miR-142 on DNMT1 and ZEB1 were predicted by JASPAR, and proved by luciferase reporter assay, ChIP analysis and co-IP. RESULTS PAX5 functioned as a tumor suppressor by positive regulation of miR-142-5p/3p both in vitro and in vivo. The expression of PAX5 was regulated by the methylation of its promoter region induced by DNMT1 and ZEB1. In addition, miR-142-5p/3p could regulate the expression of DNMT1 and ZEB1 through binding with their 3'UTR region, respectively. CONCLUSION In summary, PAX5-miR-142-DNMT1/ZEB1 constructed a negative feedback loop to regulate the progression of breast cancer, which provided emerging strategies for breast cancer therapy.

J Mol Med (Berl) 2023; 101:595-606. [PMID: 37126184 DOI: 10.1007/s00109-023-02313-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 03/15/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023]
Abstract
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with highly heterogeneous clinical courses. Paired-box 5 (PAX5), the regulator of B cell differentiation and growth, is abnormally expressed in several types of cancers. Herein, we explored the prognostic value of PAX5 in MCL by comprehensively analyzing the clinical features and laboratory data of 82 MCL cases. PAX5 positivity was associated with shorter overall survival (OS; p = 0.011) and was identified as an independent prognostic factor in MCL patients. The elevated β2-MG (p = 0.027) and advanced Mantle Cell Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (MIPI) score (p = 0.014) were related to positive PAX5 expression. The MIPI-SP risk scoring system was established and exhibited a superior prognostic value for OS depending on an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.770 (95% CI, 0.658-0.881) than MIPI score. Bioinformatic analysis of PAX5-related genes supported the mechanistic roles of PAX5 in MCL. This study provides insight into the potential role of PAX5 in MCL, and the novel risk scoring system MIPI-SP optimizes the risk stratification and facilitates prognosis evaluation in MCL patients. KEY MESSAGES: • Paired-box 5 positivity indicated adverse prognosis in mantle cell lymphoma patients. • Positive PAX5 expression was related to MIPI score and β2-MG in MCL patients. • MIPI-SP risk scoring system has superior prognostic value than MIPI score in MCL.

Abstract
Objective: In this study, we investigate the molecular rearrangement of FOXO1 in alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma (ARHS) in Saudi pediatric patients. Method: We performed a molecular detection of molecular translocation in 30 pediatric cases of ARHS using FOXO1 dual color break-apart FISH probe (ZytoLight®, 13q14.11) and PAX5 dual color break-apart FISH probe (ZytoLight®, 9p13.2). Results: All analyzable cases of ARHS demonstrated FOXO1 translocation whereas PAX5 translocation was not detected in any case. Conclusion: Although the testing for PAX5 rearrangement was based on protein-protein network analysis, our study showed that PAX5 translocation is not conspicuous in ARHS. PAX7/3::FOXO1 fusion genes feature ARMS, rendering crossreactivity between PAX7 and PAX3 a possible explanation. Nevertheless, PAX5 immunoreactivity and molecular translocation could be an adjunctive pathway that is confined to aggressive ARMS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
There is a declining trend of gastric cancer (GC) incidence in the world during recent years that is related to the development of novel diagnostic methods. However, there is still a high ratio of GC mortality among the Iranian population that can be associated with late diagnosis. Despite various reports about the novel diagnostic markers, there is not any general and standard diagnostic panel marker for Iranian GC patients. Therefore, it is required to determine an efficient and general panel of molecular markers for early detection.
Main body of the abstract
In the present review, we summarized all of the reported markers until now among Iranian GC patients to pave the way for the determination of a population-based diagnostic panel of markers. In this regard, we categorized these markers in different groups based on their involved processes to know which molecular process is more frequent during the GC progression among Iranians.
Conclusion
We observed that the non-coding RNAs are the main factors involved in GC tumorigenesis in this population.

Abstract
Retinoblastoma (Rb) is the most common intraocular malignant tumor in infants. Here, we investigated the function and mechanism of cyclophosphamide (CTX) in the development of Rb. Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) results showed that paired box protein 5 (Pax5) expression was down-regulated in Rb tissues and cell lines. Methylation-specific PCR (MSP) results showed that the methylation level of Pax5 was up-regulated in Rb. After treatment with CTX, the Pax5 expression in Rb cell lines was increased significantly. The methylation of Pax5 and the expression of DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) were down-regulated in the CTX group. Cyclophosphamide inhibited cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, promoted cell apoptosis via the Notch1 pathway. DNA methyltransferase inhibitor SGI-1027 had synergistic effects with CTX. Paired box protein 5 siRNA was transfected into Y79 cells treated with CTX. The expression of DNMTs, Pax5, the Notch1 pathway and apoptosis marker protein was detected by Western blotting, and changes in cell behavior were detected, respectively. Results showed that knockdown of Pax5 reversed the effects of CTX. Moreover, the Notch1 activator Valproic acid (VPA) abolished the inhibitory effects of CTX on Rb development. Moreover, CTX inhibited tumor growth in nude mice. These findings demonstrated that CTX up-regulated Pax5 expression by down-regulating DNMTs expression, and then inhibited the Notch1 signaling pathway activation and Rb growth.

Abstract
Cancer is one of the main health challenges and leading causes of deaths in the world. Various environmental and genetic risk factors are associated with tumorigenesis. Epigenetic deregulations are also important risk factors during tumor progression which are reversible transcriptional alterations without any genomic changes. Various mechanisms are involved in epigenetic regulations such as DNA methylation, chromatin modifications, and noncoding RNAs. Cancer incidence and mortality have a growing trend during last decades among Iranian population which are significantly related to the late diagnosis. Therefore, it is required to prepare efficient molecular diagnostic panels for the early detection of cancer in this population. Promoter hyper methylation is frequently observed as an inhibitory molecular mechanism in various genes associated with DNA repair, cell cycle regulation, and apoptosis during tumor progression. Since aberrant promoter methylations have critical roles in early stages of neoplastic transformations, in present review we have summarized all of the aberrant methylations which have been reported during tumor progression among Iranian cancer patients. Aberrant promoter methylations are targetable and prepare novel therapeutic options for the personalized medicine in cancer patients. This review paves the way to introduce a non-invasive methylation specific panel of diagnostic markers for the early detection of cancer among Iranians.
