[PMID: 38091883 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2023.155019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/05/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2024]
Abstract
The lncRNA PVT1 has emerged as a pivotal component in the intricate landscape of cancer pathogenesis, particularly in lung cancer. PVT1, situated in the 8q24 chromosomal region, has garnered attention for its aberrant expression patterns in lung cancer, correlating with tumor progression, metastasis, and poor prognosis. Numerous studies have unveiled the diverse mechanisms PVT1 contributes to lung cancer pathogenesis. It modulates critical pathways, such as cell proliferation, apoptosis evasion, angiogenesis, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. PVT1's interactions with other molecules, including microRNAs and proteins, amplify its oncogenic influence. Recent advancements in genomic and epigenetic analyses have also illuminated the intricate regulatory networks that govern PVT1 expression. Understanding PVT1's complex involvement in lung cancer holds substantial clinical implications. Targeting PVT1 presents a promising avenue for developing novel diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic interventions. This abstract encapsulates the expanding knowledge regarding the oncogenic role of PVT1 in lung cancer, underscoring the significance of further research to unravel its complete mechanistic landscape and exploit its potential for improved patient outcomes.

Abstract
Lung cancer (LC) imposes a significant burden, and is associated with high mortality and morbidity among malignant tumors. Aberrant expression of particular lncRNAs is closely linked to LC. LncRNA polymorphisms cause abnormal expression levels and/or structural dysfunction. They can affect the progression of cancer, survival, response to chemotherapy and recurrence rates in cancer patients. The present article provides a comprehensive overview of the effect of lncRNA genetic polymorphisms on LC. It is proposed that lncRNA-related variants can be used to predict cancer risk and therapeutic outcomes. More large-scale trials on diverse ethnic groups are required to validate the results, thus personalizing LC therapy based on lncRNA genotypes.

Abstract
Aberrant regulation of the long non-coding RNA SRY-box transcription factor 2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT) has been reported in various diseases including gastric cancer (GC). However, an association between the well-studied rs9839776 single nucleotide polymorphism in SOX2OT and GC susceptibility has not been reported. This study aimed to evaluate the association between the rs9839776 single nucleotide polymorphism in SOX2OT and GC risk. Genotyping of rs9839776 was conducted using TaqMan genotyping assay for 460 patients with GC and 386 controls. We found that the dominant model (CT+TT) and rs9839776 T allele were significantly associated with decreased GC risk (P = .046, adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 0.72, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.52-1.00 and P = .044, AOR = 0.74, 95% CI = 0.56-0.99, respectively). In addition, stratified analysis revealed that the dominant model (CT+TT) and rs9839776 T allele were significantly associated with decreased risk of lymph node metastasis-negative (P = .039, AOR = 0.67, 95% CI = 0.46-0.98 and P = .049, AOR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.51-1.00, respectively) and tumor stage I (A+B)/II (A+B+C) (P = .028, AOR = 0.66, 95% CI = 0.50-0.96 and P = .041, AOR = 0.71, 95% CI = 0.52-0.99, respectively) GC. Our findings suggest that the rs9839776 T allele may be a protective factor against GC susceptibility. Further research is needed to clarify whether rs9839776 affects SOX2OT expression.

Abstract
Background This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between long non-coding RNA (lncRNA)-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and susceptibility to silicosis. Methods First, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data were comprehensively analyzed in the peripheral blood lymphocytes of eight participants (four silicosis cases and four healthy controls) exposed to silica dust to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs (DE-lncRNAs). The functional SNPs in the identified DE-lncRNAs were then identified using several databases. Finally, the association between functional SNPs and susceptibility to silicosis was evaluated by a two-stage case-control study. The SNPs of 155 silicosis cases and 141 healthy silica-exposed controls were screened by genome-wide association study (GWAS), and the candidate SNPs of 194 silicosis cases and 235 healthy silica-exposed controls were validated by genotyping using the improved Mutiligase Detection Reaction (iMLDR) system. Results A total of 76 DE-lncRNAs were identified by RNA-seq data analysis (cut-offs: fold change > 2 or fold change < 0.5, P < 0.05), while 127 functional SNPs among those 76 DE-lncRNAs were identified through multiple public databases. Furthermore, five SNPs were found to be significantly correlated with the risk of silicosis by GWAS screening (P < 0.05), while the results of GWAS and iMLDR validation indicated that the variant A allele of rs1814521 was associated with a reduced risk of silicosis (OR = 0.76, 95% CI = 0.62–0.94, P = 0.011). Conclusion The presence of the SNP rs1814521 in the lncRNA ADGRG3 is associated with susceptibility to silicosis. Moreover, ADGRG3 was found to be lowly expressed in silicosis cases. The underlying biological mechanisms by which lncRNA ADGRG3 and rs1814521 regulate the development of silicosis need further study.

Medicine (Baltimore) 2021; 100:e27773. [PMID: 35049170 PMCID: PMC9191314 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000027773] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms of plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 can affect various tumors including gastro-intestinal, sexual hormone sensitive cancers and lymphoma. Accumulated evidence have shown that plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 acts as an oncogene and tumor suppressor in various cancers. In fact, the rs13255292 and rs2608053 single nucleotide polymorphisms of plasmacytoma variant translocation 1are known to affect lymphoma; however, their effects on gastric cancer are primarily unknown. In this study, we evaluated the association between these plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 polymorphisms and the risk of gastric cancer.In the present study, 462 patients diagnosed with gastric cancer and 377 cancer-free controls were enrolled. The TaqMan genotyping assay was used to analyze the association between rs13255292 and rs2608053 single nucleotide polymorphisms and the risk of gastric cancer.The rs2608053 dominant model (CT + TT) was associated with a decreased risk of gastric cancer in T3 + T4 (odds ratio [OR] = 0.61, confidence interval (CI) = 0.41 - 0.92, P = .019), and stage III Gastric cancer subgroups (OR = 0.59, 95% CI = 0.38 - 0.91, P = .017) compared to the CC genotype. When stratified analysis by sex was carried out, the rs13255292 dominant model (CT + TT) had a significant association with an increased risk of gastric cancer in the female negative lymph node metastasis gastric cancer subgroup, compared to the CC genotype (OR = 1.96, 95% CI = 1.16 - 3.30, P = .012). The recessive model (TT) of rs13255292 was associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer in the male T3 + T4 gastric cancer subgroups compared to the CC + CT genotype (OR = 3.82, 95% CI = 1.02 - 14.33, P = .047). The dominant model (CT + TT) of rs2608053 was related to a decreased risk of gastric cancer in male T3 + T4 (OR = 0.57, 95% CI = 0.33 - 0.98, P = .042) and stage III gastric cancer subgroups (OR = 0.49, 95% CI = 0.27 - 0.89, P = .020) compared to the CC genotype.The rs13255292 and rs2608053 single nucleotide polymorphisms in plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 may contribute to susceptibility of gastric cancer. Further studies with more subjects and different ethnic groups are needed to validate our results.

Abstract
Phytochemicals are various compounds produced by plants. There is growing evidence on their potential health effects. Some of these compounds are considered as traditional medicines and used as painkillers, anti-inflammatory agents, and for other applications. One of these phytochemicals is curumin, a natural polyphenol derived from the turmeric plant (Curcuma longa L.). Curcumin is widely used as a food coloring, preservative and condiment. It has also been shown to have antioxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. Moreover, there is growing evidence that curcumin alters long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in many kinds of cancer. These noncoding RNAs can cause epigenetic modulation in the expression of several genes. This study reviews reports of curcumin effects on lncRNAs in lung, prostate, colorectal, breast, pancreatic, renal, gastric, and ovarian cancers.

Abstract
Several epidemiological and experimental studies have demonstrated that many human diseases are not only caused by specific genetic and environmental factors but also by gene-environment interactions. Although it has been widely reported that genetic polymorphisms play a critical role in human susceptibility to cancer and other chronic disease conditions, many single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are caused by somatic mutations resulting from human exposure to environmental stressors. Scientific evidence suggests that the etiology of many chronic illnesses is caused by the joint effect between genetics and the environment. Research has also pointed out that the interactions of environmental factors with specific allelic variants highly modulate the susceptibility to diseases. Hence, many scientific discoveries on gene-environment interactions have elucidated the impact of their combined effect on the incidence and/or prevalence rate of human diseases. In this review, we provide an overview of the nature of gene-environment interactions, and discuss their role in human cancers, with special emphases on lung, colorectal, bladder, breast, ovarian, and prostate cancers.
