Role of Elevated Serum TGF-β1 and the Common Promoter TGFB1-509C/T Polymorphism in the Development and Progression of Primary Glial Tumors and Brain Metastases. MEDICINA (KAUNAS, LITHUANIA) 2024; 60:146. [PMID: 38256406 PMCID: PMC10819302 DOI: 10.3390/medicina60010146] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/20/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
Background and Objectives: The role of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) has been widely studied in the context of carcinogenesis. It has been involved in the pathogenesis of primary brain tumors or brain metastases due to its pleiotropic effects on immune regulation and tissue homeostasis. In line with recent findings, the aim of the current study was to examine the role of circulating TGF-β1 and the -509C/T functional polymorphism (rs1800469) in the TGFB1 gene promoter in the susceptibility and progression of primary brain tumors and brain metastases among patients from the Bulgarian population. Materials and Methods: Cases with a confirmed diagnosis were genotyped by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism assay (PCR-RFLP). Serum TGF-β1 levels were determined by ELISA. Immunohistochemical evaluation of the expression of TGF-β1 and the TGF-β1 receptor-type II was conducted. Results: We observed that TGF-β1 serum levels correlate with the genotype and are sex-related. TGF-β1 serum levels were significantly elevated in patients compared to controls. Additionally, the T/T-genotype determined higher circulating levels of the cytokine. The same genotype determined the shorter median survival after surgery for the patients. The immunohistochemical analysis revealed a statistical tendency: cases expressing TGF-β1 in the cytoplasm had elevated levels of the cytokine in the serum compared to the negative cases. Conclusions: Overall, our results indicate a negative effect of the T-allele on the predisposition and prognosis of brain malignancies, and the genetically determined higher TGF-β1 serum levels might contribute to the worse prognosis and metastatic capacity of brain malignancies.

Abstract
Brain metastasis accounts for a large number of cancer-related deaths. The host immune system, involved at each step of the metastatic cascade, plays an important role in both the initiation of the brain metastasis and their treatment responses to various modalities, through either local and or systemic effect. However, few reliable immune biomarkers have been identified in predicting the development and the treatment outcome in patients with cancer brain metastasis. Here, we provide a focused perspective of immune related biomarkers for cancer metastasis to the brain and a thorough discussion of the potential utilization of specific biomarkers such as tumor mutation burden (TMB), genetic markers, circulating and tumor-infiltrating immune cells, cytokines, in predicting the brain disease progression and regression after therapeutic intervention. We hope to inspire the field to extend the research and establish practical guidelines for developing and validating immune related biomarkers to provide personalized treatment and improve treatment outcomes in patients with metastatic brain cancers.

[PMID: 36523779 PMCID: PMC9745336 DOI: 10.3389/fmed.2022.939776] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 10/26/2022] [Indexed: 07/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Recent studies have found that the protein encoded by the FDX1 gene is involved in mediating Cuproptosis as a regulator of protein lipoylation and related to immune response process of tumors. However, the specific biological function of FDX1 in glioma is currently unclear. To explore the potential function of FDX1, this study explored the correlation between the expression of FDX1 in cancers and survival prognosis by analyzing the public databases of GEPIA and Cbioportal. Immune infiltration was analyzed by the TIMER2.0 database in tumors. The possible biological processes and functions of FDX1-related in glioma were annotated through gene enrichment. Relationship between Cuproptosis and autophagy was explored through gene co-expression studies. Summary and conclusions of this study: (1) FDX1 is highly expressed in gliomas and associated with poor prognosis in low-grade gliomas (LGG). (2) Gene annotation indicates that FDX1 is mainly involved in the tumor protein lipoylation and cell death. (3) FDX1 expression is positively correlated with the infiltration of immune cells. (4) LIPT2 and NNAT, two other genes involved in lipoylation, may be unidentified marker gene for Cuproptosis. And the Cuproptosis genes related to FDX1 were positively correlated with the expression of autophagy marker genes Atg5, Atg12, and BECN-1. This evidence suggests that there may be some interaction between FDX1 mediated Cuproptosis and autophagy. In summary, FDX1 may serve as a potential immunotherapy target and prognostic marker for Glioma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We investigated the association between common variants in TGF-β1, IL-6 and the risk of ovarian cancer (OC) in Tunisian patients and control women. MATERIAL METHODS AND RESULTS Study subjects comprised 71 OC cases and 74 control women. Genotyping of TGF-β1 and IL-6 SNPs was done by real-time PCR. No differences were noted in the minor allele frequencies of the three TGF-β1 SNPs between OC patients and controls. However, marked differences in the distribution of TGF-β1 rs1800469 genotypes were seen between OC cases and controls (p < 0.001), with TGF-β1 rs1800469 heterozygous (C/T) genotype being negatively associated with OC (OR [95% CI] = 0.24 [0.15-0.58]). The allelic and genotypic distributions at IL-6 polymorphisms showed a positive association between minor allele (G) at IL-6 rs1880242 variant (p = 0.0275; R [95% CI] = 1.88 [1.03-3.46]) and the occurrence of OC. In fact, the presence of T allele [G/T + T/T] decrease the risk of OC (p = 0.021; OR [95% CI] = 0.38 [0.17-0.88]). In addition, the Haploview analysis demonstrated high linkage disequilibrium (LD) between IL-6 SNPs and eight-locus haplotype analysis identified that GGAGGGGA and GGAGGGTA haplotypes are positively associated with OC risk. A negative association was shown between IL-6 haplotype (TGGGCCTA) and OC occurrence. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that TGF-β1 rs1800469, IL-6 rs1880242 variants and IL-6 haplotype (TGGGCCTA) have protective roles of OC risk. IL-6 haplotypes (GGAGGGGA and GGAGGGTA) increase OC susceptibility among Tunisian women.

Abstract
Previous studies demonstrated that transforming growth factor (TGT) β1 plays an immunosuppressive role in clinical tuberculosis. However, the contribution of TGF-β1 gene polymorphisms to human tuberculosis susceptibility remains undetermined. In this study, we showed that single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in TGF-β1 gene were associated with increased susceptibility to tuberculosis in the discovery cohort (1533 case patients and 1445 controls) and the validation cohort (832 case patients and 1084 controls), and 2 SNPs located in the promoter region (rs2317130 and rs4803457) are in strong linkage disequilibrium. The SNP rs2317130 was associated with the severity of tuberculosis. Further investigation demonstrated that rs2317130 CC genotype is associated with higher TGF-β1 and interleukin 17A production. The mechanistic study showed that rs2317130 C allele affected TGF-β1 promoter activity by regulating binding activity to nuclear extracts. These findings provide insights into the pathogenic role of TGF-β1 in human tuberculosis and reveal a function for the TGF-β1 promoter SNPs in regulating immune responses during Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection.

CLINICAL MEDICINE INSIGHTS-ONCOLOGY 2020; 14:1179554920947335. [PMID: 32922114 PMCID: PMC7450461 DOI: 10.1177/1179554920947335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2020] [Accepted: 07/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Purpose: About one-third of nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients develop brain
metastases (BM). However, there is an unmet need for early diagnosis and
treatment of BM. The precise mechanism for BM is still unknown. However, the
genetic heterogeneity between primary tumor and paired BM indicates that
sampling from the primary tumor may not be able to fully represent the
mutational status in metastases. In this study, the genetic heterogeneity of
primary lung adenocarcinoma and paired BM was analyzed. Patients and methods: A total of 11 paired samples of primary tumors and BM from lung cancer
patients were included, in which 7 paired samples of patients were finally
analyzed. Samples were sequenced by whole-exome sequencing (WES) to
investigate the common and unique mutations in the primary tumors and BM,
and the similarities and differences in copy number variation (CNV). Results: The consistency of gene mutation between primary lung adenocarcinoma and
paired BM was 33% to 86%. FAM129C and ADAMTSs specifically mutated in BM,
along with NKX2-1 high amplification and SAMD2/4 copy number deletion. Conclusion: The consistency of gene mutation between primary lung adenocarcinoma and
corresponding BM is relatively high, while the individual differences were
significant. FAM129C and ADAMTSs mutations and high amplification of NKX2-1
may be related to BM of lung cancer. The loss of copy number of SAMD2/4 may
be a potential therapeutic target for BM from lung adenocarcinoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is one of the greatest therapeutic challenges of oncology. Potential associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms in heat shock protein β1 (HSPB1) and transforming growth factor β1 (TGFβ1) and survival have been investigated. METHODS A prospective multicenter study of 94 patients with SCLC treated between 2013 and 2016 was conducted. Clinical, tumour-related, therapeutic, and genetic (9 SNPs of TGFβ1 gene and 5 of HSPB1 gene) variables were analyzed. RESULTS The cohort included 77 men and 17 women with a median age of 61 years. Eighty percent presented with limited stage at diagnosis and received thoracic radiation with a median dose of 45 Gy (twice-daily radiation in 42%). Forty-seven percent received concurrent platinum-based chemotherapy and 57% received prophylactic cranial irradiation (PCI). Overall survival (OS) was 34% at 2 years and 16% at 3 years. In multivariate analysis, the rs4803455:CA genotype of the TGFβ1 gene showed a statistically significant association with lower disease-free survival (DFS; hazard ratio [HR] 3.13; confidence interval [CI] 1.19-8.17; p = 0.020) and higher local recurrence (HR 3.80; CI 1.37-10.5; p = 0.048), and a marginal association with lower OS (HR 1.94; CI 0.98-3.83; p = 0.057). A combined analysis showed that patients receiving PCI and carrying the rs4803455:CA genotype had statistically significant lower OS (p < 0.001) and DFS (p < 0.001) than patients receiving PCI and carrying the rs4803455:AA genotype. CONCLUSIONS Genetic analysis showed the CA genotype of TGFβ1 SNP rs4803455 was associated with worse prognosis in patients with SCLC and could be considered as a potential biomarker.

Abstract
We studied the relationship between the polymorphisms of −800G/A and +915G/C in transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) gene and lung cancer susceptibility. The sequence-specific primer polymerase chain reaction (PCR-SSP) technique was used to test 156 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients that were selected as the observation group and 156 patients with pneumonia and tuberculosis that were selected as the control group (age and gender 1:1 proximal matching principle) and the polymorphisms of the first exon −800G/A and +915G/C TGF-β1 genes. The expression of TGF-β1 levels in peripheral blood was detected using ELISA. The proportion of −800G/A gene AA subtype and A allelic gene in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group, while the proportion of +915G/C gene CC subtype and C allelic gene was also significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). The cancer risk [odds ratio (OR)] of patients with A allelic gene in −800G/A gene was 4.8 (95% CI=2.563–6.537, P<0.05), while the cancer risk (OR) of patients with C allelic gene in +915G/C gene was 4.7 (95% CI=2.317–5.864, P<0.05). The serum TGF-β1 expression levels of −800G/A gene AA subtype in the observation group was significantly higher than the GG type, GA type and the control group, while the TGF-β1 level of +915G/C gene CC subtype was significantly higher than the GG type, GC type and the control group (P<0.05). Therefore, the polymorphisms of −800G/A and +915G/C in TGF-β1 gene are closely related to the lung cancer susceptibility.

Abstract
Previously, several polymorphisms in TGFB1 have been identified in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and the variants, C-509T, T869C, and G915C, have been demonstrated to associate with higher circulating levels of TGF-β1. However, little is known about the prognostic value of TGF-β1 polymorphisms in cancers. In this study, by genotyping the TGF-β1 T869C polymorphism in a total of 261 patients with NSCLC using DNA from blood lymphocytes, we first found that NSCLC patients, especially those with allele C carriers, had significantly higher serum TGF-β1 levels than healthy individuals. By using chi-square (χ2) test and Fisher's exact test, we noticed that TC/CC genotypes were positively correlated with smoking, clinical TNM stage, lymph node, and distant metastasis in NSCLC patients. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that patients with TT genotype had a better overall survival than the allele C carriers (TC + CC). Finally, multivariate analysis confirmed histology, lymph node, and distant metastasis but not T869C polymorphism as independent prognostic factors for NSCLC. Taken together, our data, as a proof of principle, suggest that T869C polymorphism in TGFB1 may act as a genetic modifier in NSCLC progression and a promising prognostic marker of survival in NSCLC patients.

Abstract
Acquired aplastic anemia (AA) is a hematological disease characterized by failure of bone marrow hematopoiesis resulting in pancytopenia. While immune-mediated destruction of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) plays a central role in the pathophysiology of acquired AA, the transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) is crucial in adjusting the immune system. The aim of our study was to investigate the role of TGF-β1 gene polymorphisms rs1800469 and rs2317130 in susceptibility to acquired AA. Via the approach of SNaPshot, we genotyped rs1800469 and rs2317130 in 101 patients with acquired AA and 165 controls. It derived us to the conclusion that the genotype TT of rs1800469 (C/T) was significantly associated with decreased risk of acquired AA (adjusted OR = 0.39, 95% CI = 0.18-0.83, P = 0.014). Furthermore, this decreased risk was more pronounced among male patients (adjusted OR = 0.35, 95% CI = 0.13-0.95, P = 0.038) and SAA/vSAA (severe AA/very severe AA) patients (adjusted OR = 0.31, 95% CI = 0.12-0.77, P = 0.02) compared with controls in subgroup analysis. However, a significant increased risk was observed in the genotype distributions of rs2317130 for TT genotype (adjusted OR = 2.52, 95% CI = 1.03-6.19, P = 0.04) compared with the CC genotype among the SAA/vSAA patients and controls in the severity stratification analysis. Our results indicated that TGF-β1 gene polymorphisms might be involved in the munity of acquired AA in a Chinese population. This initial analysis provides valuable clues for further study of TGF-β1 pathway genes in acquired AA.
