The discovery of GGT1 as a novel gene for ischemic stroke conferring protection against disease risk in non-smokers and non-abusers of alcohol. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2024; 33:107685. [PMID: 38522756 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2024.107685] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2023] [Revised: 01/09/2024] [Accepted: 03/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/26/2024] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Increased plasma gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT1) has been identified as a robust and independent risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS), but the molecular mechanisms of the enzyme-disease association are unclear. The present study investigated whether polymorphisms in the GGT1 gene contribute to IS susceptibility. MATERIALS AND METHODS DNA samples obtained from 1288 unrelated individuals (600 IS patients and 688 controls) were genotyped for common single nucleotide polymorphisms of GGT1 using the MassArray-4 platform. RESULTS The rs5751909 polymorphism was significantly associated with decreased risk of ischemic stroke regardless sex and age (Pperm ≤ 0.01, dominant genetic model). The haplotype rs4820599A-rs5760489A-rs5751909A showed strong protection against ischemic stroke (OR 0.53, 95 %CI 0.36 - 0.77, Pperm ≤ 0.0001). The protective effect of SNP rs5751909 in the stroke phenotype was successfully replicated in the UK Biobank, SiGN, and ISGC cohorts (P ≤ 0.01). GGT1 polymorphisms showed joint (epistatic) effects on the risk of ischemic stroke, with some known IS-associated GWAS loci (e.g., rs4322086 and rs12646447) investigated in our population. In addition, SNP rs5751909 was found to be strongly associated with a decreased risk of ischemic stroke in non-smokers (OR 0.54 95 %CI 0.39-0.75, Pperm = 0.0002) and non-alcohol abusers (OR 0.43 95 %CI 0.30-0.61, Pperm = 2.0 × 10-6), whereas no protective effects of this SNP against disease risk were observed in smokers and alcohol abusers (Pperm < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS We propose mechanisms underlying the observed associations between GGT1 polymorphisms and ischemic stroke risk. This pilot study is the first to demonstrate that GGT1 is a novel susceptibility gene for ischemic stroke and provides additional evidence of the genetic contribution to impaired redox homeostasis underlying disease pathogenesis.

Obesity-Dependent Association of the rs10454142 PPP1R21 with Breast Cancer. Biomedicines 2024; 12:818. [PMID: 38672173 PMCID: PMC11048332 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines12040818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 03/30/2024] [Accepted: 04/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The purpose of this work was to find a link between the breast cancer (BC)-risk effects of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG)-associated polymorphisms and obesity. The study was conducted on a sample of 1498 women (358 BC; 1140 controls) who, depending on the presence/absence of obesity, were divided into two groups: obese (119 BC; 253 controls) and non-obese (239 BC; 887 controls). Genotyping of nine SHBG-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP)-rs17496332 PRMT6, rs780093 GCKR, rs10454142 PPP1R21, rs3779195 BAIAP2L1, rs440837 ZBTB10, rs7910927 JMJD1C, rs4149056 SLCO1B1, rs8023580 NR2F2, and rs12150660 SHBG-was executed, and the BC-risk impact of these loci was analyzed by logistic regression separately in each group of obese/non-obese women. We found that the BC-risk effect correlated by GWAS with the SHBG-level polymorphism rs10454142 PPP1R21 depends on the presence/absence of obesity. The SHBG-lowering allele C rs10454142 PPP1R21 has a risk value for BC in obese women (allelic model: CvsT, OR = 1.52, 95%CI = 1.10-2.11, and pperm = 0.013; additive model: CCvsTCvsTT, OR = 1.71, 95%CI = 1.15-2.62, and pperm = 0.011; dominant model: CC + TCvsTT, OR = 1.95, 95%CI = 1.13-3.37, and pperm = 0.017) and is not associated with the disease in women without obesity. SNP rs10454142 PPP1R21 and 10 proxy SNPs have adipose-specific regulatory effects (epigenetic modifications of promoters/enhancers, DNA interaction with 51 transcription factors, eQTL/sQTL effects on five genes (PPP1R21, RP11-460M2.1, GTF2A1L, STON1-GTF2A1L, and STON1), etc.), can be "likely cancer driver" SNPs, and are involved in cancer-significant pathways. In conclusion, our study detected an obesity-dependent association of the rs10454142 PPP1R21 with BC in women.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We investigated the effect of obesity on the association of genome-wide associative studies (GWAS)-significant genes with the risk of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). METHODS All study participants (n = 1,100) were divided into 2 groups in terms of body mass index (BMI): BMI ≥ 30 (255 KOA patients and 167 controls) and BMI < 30 (245 KOA and 433 controls). The eight GWAS-significant KOA single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of six candidate genes, such as LYPLAL1 (rs2820436, rs2820443), SBNO1 (rs1060105, rs56116847), WWP2 (rs34195470), NFAT5 (rs6499244), TGFA (rs3771501), GDF5 (rs143384), were genotyped. Logistic regression analysis (gPLINK online program) was used for SNPs associations study with the risk of developing KOA into 2 groups (BMI ≥ 30 and BMI < 30) separately. The functional effects of KOA risk loci were evaluated using in silico bioinformatic analysis. RESULTS Multidirectional relationships of the rs143384 GDF5 with KOA in BMI-different groups were found: This SNP was KOA protective locus among individuals with BMI ≥ 30 (OR 0.41 [95%CI 0.20-0.94] recessive model) and was disorder risk locus among individuals with BMI < 30 (OR 1.32 [95%CI 1.05-1.65] allele model, OR 1.44 [95%CI 1.10-1.86] additive model, OR 1.67 [95%CI 1.10-2.52] dominant model). Polymorphism rs143384 GDF5 manifested its regulatory effects in relation to nine genes (GDF5, CPNE1, EDEM2, ERGIC3, GDF5OS, PROCR, RBM39, RPL36P4, UQCC1) in adipose tissue, which were involved in the regulation of pathways of apoptosis of striated muscle cells. CONCLUSIONS In summary, the effect of obesity on the association of the rs143384 GDF5 with KOA was shown: the "protective" value of this polymorphism in the BMI ≥ 30 group and the "risk" meaning in BMI < 30 cohort.

Sex-Hormone-Binding Globulin Gene Polymorphisms and Breast Cancer Risk in Caucasian Women of Russia. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2182. [PMID: 38396861 PMCID: PMC10888713 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25042182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2024] [Revised: 02/07/2024] [Accepted: 02/09/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
In our work, the associations of GWAS (genome-wide associative studies) impact for sex-hormone-binding globulin (SHBG)-level SNPs with the risk of breast cancer (BC) in the cohort of Caucasian women of Russia were assessed. The work was performed on a sample of 1498 women (358 BC patients and 1140 control (non BC) subjects). SHBG correlated in previously GWAS nine polymorphisms such as rs780093 GCKR, rs17496332 PRMT6, rs3779195 BAIAP2L1, rs10454142 PPP1R21, rs7910927 JMJD1C, rs4149056 SLCO1B1, rs440837 ZBTB10, rs12150660 SHBG, and rs8023580 NR2F2 have been genotyped. BC risk effects of allelic and non-allelic SHBG-linked gene SNPs interactions were detected by regression analysis. The risk genetic factor for BC developing is an SHBG-lowering allele variant C rs10454142 PPP1R21 ([additive genetic model] OR = 1.31; 95%CI = 1.08-1.65; pperm = 0.024; power = 85.26%), which determines 0.32% of the cancer variance. Eight of the nine studied SHBG-related SNPs have been involved in cancer susceptibility as part of nine different non-allelic gene interaction models, the greatest contribution to which is made by rs10454142 PPP1R21 (included in all nine models, 100%) and four more SNPs-rs7910927 JMJD1C (five models, 55.56%), rs17496332 PRMT6 (four models, 44.44%), rs780093 GCKR (four models, 44.44%), and rs440837 ZBTB10 (four models, 44.44%). For SHBG-related loci, pronounced functionality in the organism (including breast, liver, fibroblasts, etc.) was predicted in silico, having a direct relationship through many pathways with cancer pathophysiology. In conclusion, our results demonstrated the involvement of SHBG-correlated genes polymorphisms in BC risk in Caucasian women in Russia.

Abstract
In this study, the association between maternal age at menarche (AAM)-related polymorphisms and offspring birth weight (BW) was studied. The work was performed on a sample of 716 pregnant women and their newborns. All pregnant women underwent genotyping of 50 SNPs of AAM candidate genes. Regression methods (linear and Model-Based Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (MB-MDR)) with permutation procedures (the indicator pperm was calculated) were used to identify the correlation between SNPs and newborn weight (transformed BW values were analyzed) and in silico bioinformatic examination was applied to assess the intended functionality of BW-associated loci. Four AAM-related genetic variants were BW-associated including genes such as POMC (rs7589318) (βadditive = 0.202/pperm = 0.015), KDM3B (rs757647) (βrecessive = 0.323/pperm = 0.005), INHBA (rs1079866) (βadditive = 0.110/pperm = 0.014) and NKX2-1 (rs999460) (βrecessive = -0.176/pperm = 0.015). Ten BW-significant models of interSNPs interactions (pperm ≤ 0.001) were identified for 20 polymorphisms. SNPs rs7538038 KISS1, rs713586 RBJ, rs12324955 FTO and rs713586 RBJ-rs12324955 FTO two-locus interaction were included in the largest number of BW-associated models (30% models each). BW-associated AAM-linked 22 SNPs and 350 proxy loci were functionally related to 49 genes relevant to pathways such as the hormone biosynthesis/process and female/male gonad development. In conclusion, maternal AMM-related genes polymorphism is associated with the offspring BW.

SERPINE1 mRNA Binding Protein 1 Is Associated with Ischemic Stroke Risk: A Comprehensive Molecular-Genetic and Bioinformatics Analysis of SERBP1 SNPs. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:8716.

Abstract
The SERBP1 gene is a well-known regulator of SERPINE1 mRNA stability and progesterone signaling. However, the chaperone-like properties of SERBP1 have recently been discovered. The present pilot study investigated whether SERBP1 SNPs are associated with the risk and clinical manifestations of ischemic stroke (IS). DNA samples from 2060 unrelated Russian subjects (869 IS patients and 1191 healthy controls) were genotyped for 5 common SNPs-rs4655707, rs1058074, rs12561767, rs12566098, and rs6702742 SERBP1-using probe-based PCR. The association of SNP rs12566098 with an increased risk of IS (risk allele C; p = 0.001) was observed regardless of gender or physical activity level and was modified by smoking, fruit and vegetable intake, and body mass index. SNP rs1058074 (risk allele C) was associated with an increased risk of IS exclusively in women (p = 0.02), non-smokers (p = 0.003), patients with low physical activity (p = 0.04), patients with low fruit and vegetable consumption (p = 0.04), and BMI ≥25 (p = 0.007). SNPs rs1058074 (p = 0.04), rs12561767 (p = 0.01), rs12566098 (p = 0.02), rs6702742 (p = 0.036), and rs4655707 (p = 0.04) were associated with shortening of activated partial thromboplastin time. Thus, SERBP1 SNPs represent novel genetic markers of IS. Further studies are required to confirm the relationship between SERBP1 polymorphism and IS risk.

Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the associations between genome-wide association studies (GWAS)-important single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and knee osteoarthritis (KOA) among Europeans of Russia. The present replicative study ("patient-control" design has been used) was carried out on 1000 DNA samples from KOA (n = 500) and KOA-free (n = 500) participants. Ten GWAS-important for KOA SNPs of eight candidate genes (LYPLAL1, GNL3, GLT8D1, SBNO1, WWP2, NFAT5, TGFA, GDF5) were studied. To assess the link between SNPs and KOA susceptibility, logistic regression (to establish independent SNP effects) and MB-MDR (to identify SNP-SNP interactions) were used. As a result of this genetic analysis, the associations of individual SNPs with KOA have not been proven. Eight loci out of ten tested SNPs interacted with each other (within twelve genetic models) and determined susceptibility to KOA. The greatest contribution to the disease development were made by three polymorphisms/genes such as rs6976 (C>T) GLT8D1, rs56116847 (G>A) SBNO1, rs6499244 (T>A) NFAT5 (each was included in 2/3 [8 out 12] KOA-responsible genetic interaction models). A two-locus epistatic interaction of rs56116847 (G >A) SBNO1 × rs6499244 (T>A) NFAT5 determined the maximum percentage (0.86%) of KOA entropy. KOA-associated SNPs are regulatory polymorphisms that affect the expression/splicing level, epigenetic modification of 72 genes in KOA-pathogenetically significant organs such as skeletal muscles, tibial arteries/nerves, thyroid, adipose tissue, etc. These putative KOA-effector genes are mainly involved in the organization/activity of the exoribonuclease complex and antigen processing/presentation pathways. In conclusion, KOA susceptibility among Europeans of Russia is mediated by intergenic interactions (but not the main effects) of GWAS-important SNPs.

Abstract
The present study was designed to examine whether sex hormone polymorphisms proven by GWAS are associated with endometriosis risk. Unrelated female participants totaling 1376 in number (395 endometriosis patients and 981 controls) were recruited into the study. Nine single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) which GWAS correlated with circulating levels of sex hormones were genotyped using a TaqMan allelic discrimination assay. FSH-lowering, and LH- and testosterone-heightening polymorphisms of the FSHB promoter (allelic variants A rs11031002 and C rs11031005) exhibit a protective effect for endometriosis (OR = 0.60-0.68). By contrast, the TT haplotype loci that were GWAS correlated with higher FSH levels and lower LH and testosterone concentrations determined an increased risk for endometriosis (OR = 2.03). Endometriosis-involved epistatic interactions were found between eight loci of sex hormone genes (without rs148982377 ZNF789) within twelve genetic simulation models. In silico examination established that 8 disorder-related loci and 80 proxy SNPs are genome variants affecting the expression, splicing, epigenetic and amino acid conformation of the 34 genes which enrich the organic anion transport and secondary carrier transporter pathways. In conclusion, the present study showed that sex hormone polymorphisms proven by GWAS are associated with endometriosis risk and involved in the molecular pathophysiology of the disease due to their functionality.

Polymorphisms of hypertension susceptibility genes as a risk factors of preeclampsia in the Caucasian population of central Russia. Placenta 2022; 129:51-61. [PMID: 36219912 DOI: 10.1016/j.placenta.2022.09.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/28/2022] [Revised: 08/18/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION The study was designed to assess the effects of hypertension (HT) susceptibility genes polymorphisms in the development of preeclampsia (PE) in Caucasians from Central Russia. METHODS PE patients (n = 452) and women control group (n = 498) were genotyped for 10 polymorphisms of HT/blood pressure (BP) susceptibility genes (according to the previously published GWAS in Caucasian populations) including AC026703.1 (rs1173771), HFE (rs1799945), BAG6 (rs805303), PLCE1 (rs932764), OBFC1 (rs4387287), ARHGAP42 (rs633185), CERS5 (rs7302981), ATP2B1 (rs2681472), TBX2 (rs8068318) and RGL3 (rs167479). A logistic regression method was applied to search for associations between SNPs and PE. The relationship between SNP-SNP interactions and PE risk was analyzed by performing MB-MDR. RESULTS The rs1799945 gene in HFE significantly independently increased the risk of developing PE (OR = 2.24) and rs805303 in BAG6 was associated with a reduced risk in the occurrence of PE (OR = 0.55-0.78). Among the 10 SNPs examined, nine SNPs were associated with PEs within the 10 most significant SNP-SNP interaction models. Loci rs7302981 CERS5, rs805303 BAG6 and rs932764 PLCE1 contributed to the largest number of epistatic models (50% or more). DISCUSSION The present study is the first to report an association between polymorphisms of HT/BP susceptibility genes important for GWAS and the risk of PE in Caucasians from Central Russia. Our pathway-based functional annotation of the PE risk variants highlights the potential regulatory function (epigenetic/eQTL/sQTL/non-synonymous) that nine genetic risk markers and their 115 highly correlated variants exert on 155 genes. The study shows that these genes may function cooperatively in key signaling pathways in PE biology.

Matrix Metalloproteinase Gene Polymorphisms Are Associated with Breast Cancer in the Caucasian Women of Russia. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232012638. [PMID: 36293492 PMCID: PMC9604098 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232012638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/18/2022] [Revised: 10/14/2022] [Accepted: 10/15/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
We conducted this study to explore the association between matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) gene polymorphisms and breast cancer (BC) risk in the Caucasian women of Russia. In total, 358 affected (BC) and 746 unaffected (cancer-free) women were included in this case-control retrospective study. From BC-related genes in previous studies, ten single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in five MMP genes (MMP1, 2, 3, 8, 9) were genotyped. The BC risk was calculated by logistic regression (to evaluate the SNPs’ independent effects) and model-based multifactor dimensionality reduction (MB-MDR) (to identify SNP−SNP interactions) methods. The allelic variants’ distribution of c.836 A > G (rs17576) and c. 1721 C > G (rs2250889) MMP9 was significantly different between BC and cancer-free women: for G minor alleles, these SNPs manifested disorder protective effects (OR 0.82 and OR 0.67−0.71, respectively, pperm ≤ 0.035). Eleven haplotypes of six SNPs MMP9 were involved in BC risk (nine haplotypes) and protective (two haplotypes) effects. All 10 SNPs of the MMP genes examined were associated with BC within the 13 SNP−SNP interaction simulated models, with a pivotal role of the two-locus (rs17577 × rs3918242) MMP9 epistatic interaction (defined as 1.81% BC entropy within more than 60% of the genetic models). Under in silico bioinformatics, BC susceptibility MMP polymorphic loci are located in functionally active genome regions and impact genes expression and splicing “regulators” in the mammary gland. The biological pathways of BC MMP candidate genes are mainly realized due to metalloendopeptidase activity and extracellular matrix organization (structure, disassembly, metabolic process, etc.). In conclusion, our data show that MMP gene polymorphisms are related to BC susceptibility in the Caucasian women of Russia.

The Modifying Effect of Obesity on the Association of Matrix Metalloproteinase Gene Polymorphisms with Breast Cancer Risk. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10102617. [PMID: 36289879 PMCID: PMC9599943 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10102617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2022] [Revised: 10/10/2022] [Accepted: 10/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: We investigated the possible modifying effect of obesity on the association of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) gene polymorphisms with breast cancer (BC) risk. Methods: A total of 1104 women divided into two groups according to their body mass index (BMI): BMI ≥ 30 (119 BC, and 190 control) and BMI < 30 (239 BC, and 556 control) were genotyped for specially selected (according to their association with BC in the previous study) 10 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) of MMP1, 2, 3, 8, and 9 genes. Logistic regression association analysis was performed in each studied group of women (with/without obesity). Functional annotation of BC-correlated MMP polymorphic variants was analyzed by in silico bioinformatics. Results: We observed significant differences in the involvement of MMP SNPs in BC in obese and non-obese women. Polymorphic loci MMP9 (c.836 A > G (rs17576) and c. 1721 C > G (rs2250889)) were BC-protective factors in obese women (OR 0.71, allelic model, and OR 0.55, additive model, respectively). Genotypes TT MMP2 (c.-1306 C > T,rs243865) and AA MMP9 (c. 1331-163 G > A,rs3787268) determined BC susceptibility in non-obese women (OR 0.31, and OR 2.36, respectively). We found in silico substantial multidirectional influences on gene expression in adipose tissue BC-related polymorphic loci: BC risk allele A-rs3787268 in non-obese women is associated with low expression NEURL2, PLTP, RP3-337O18.9, SPATA25, and ZSWIM1, whereas BC risk allele A-rs17576 in obese women is associated with high expression in the same genes in visceral and/or subcutaneous adipose. Conclusions: our study indicated that obesity has a significant modifying effect on the association of MMP genes with BC risk in postmenopausal women.

Abstract
The purpose of this pilot study was to explore whether polymorphisms in genes encoding the catalytic (GCLC) and modifier (GCLM) subunits of glutamate-cysteine ligase, a rate-limiting enzyme in glutathione synthesis, play a role in the development of ischemic stroke (IS) and the extent of brain damage. A total of 1288 unrelated Russians, including 600 IS patients and 688 age- and sex-matched healthy subjects, were enrolled for the study. Nine common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the GCLC and GCLM genes were genotyped using the MassArray-4 system. SNP rs2301022 of GCLM was strongly associated with a decreased risk of ischemic stroke regardless of sex and age (OR = 0.39, 95%CI 0.24−0.62, p < 0.0001). Two common haplotypes of GCLM possessed protective effects against ischemic stroke risk (p < 0.01), but exclusively in nonsmoker patients. Infarct size was increased by polymorphisms rs636933 and rs761142 of GCLC. The mbmdr method enabled identifying epistatic interactions of GCLC and GCLM gene polymorphisms with known IS susceptibility genes that, along with environmental risk factors, jointly contribute to the disease risk and brain infarct size. Understanding the impact of genes and environmental factors on glutathione metabolism will allow the development of effective strategies for the treatment of ischemic stroke and disease prevention.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the role of functionally significant loci of the matrix metalloproteinases genes 1, 3, 9 (MMP1, MMP3, and MMP9) in the development of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) in Caucasians of the Central region of Russia. METHODS In total 604 participants were recruited for the study, including 208 patients with POAG and 396 healthy controls. They were genotyped at eight single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the three MMP genes. The association was analyzed using logistic and log-linear regression. POAG-associated loci and their proxies were in silico assessed for their functional prediction. RESULTS Variant allele G*rs2250889 of MMP9 was significantly associated with higher risk of POAG (ORcov = 1.57-1.71). Haplotype CCA [rs3918242-rs3918249-rs17576] of the MMP9 gene was associated with lower risk of POAG (ORcov = 0.33). Allele А*rs3787268 of MMP9 was associated with the low intraocular pressure in the POAG patients (βcov = -0.176 - -0.272), and so were haplotypes AA [rs17576-rs3787268] (βcov = -0.577) and AAC [rs17576-rs3787268- rs2250889] (βcov = -0.742) of the same gene, whereas allele 2G*rs1799750 of MMP1 was associated with the earlier onset of the disease (βcov = -0.112 - -0.218). In silico analysis of the polymorphisms suggested the functionality of POAG-associated SNPs and their proxies (epigenetic potential, expression and alternative splicing effects for several genes). CONCLUSIONS The MMP9 gene polymorphisms are associated with POAG and intraocular pressure in POAG patients; rs1799750 of MMP1 was associated with the earlier age of manifestation of the disease symptoms.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To investigate the association of eight variants of four matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) genes with ischemic stroke (IS) and whether interactions among these single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) increases the risk of IS. METHODS Among 547 patients with ischemic stroke and 350 controls, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry was used to examine eight variants arising from four different genes, including MMP-1 (rs1799750), MMP-2 (rs243865, rs2285053, rs2241145), MMP-9 (rs17576), and MMP-12 (rs660599, rs2276109, and rs652438). Gene-gene interactions were employed using generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) methods. RESULTS The frequency of rs17576 was significantly higher in IS patients than in controls (p = .033). Logistic regression analysis revealed the AG and GG genotypes of rs17576 to be associated with a higher risk for IS, with the odds ratio and 95% confidence interval being 2.490 (1.251-4.959) and 2.494 (1.274-4.886), respectively. GMDR analysis showed a significant SNP-SNP interaction between rs17576 and rs660599 (the testing balanced accuracy was 53.70% and cross-validation consistency was 8/10, p = .0107). Logistic regression analysis showed the interaction between rs17576 and rs660599 to be an independent risk factor for IS with an odds ratio of 1.568 and a 95% confidence interval of 1.152-2.135. CONCLUSION An MMP-9 rs17576 polymorphism is associated with increased IS risk in the Han Hakka population and interaction between MMP-9 rs17576 and MMP-12 rs660599 is associated with increased IS risk as well.

Abstract
Ischemic stroke (IS) is one of the leading causes of death and disability resulting in inevitable burden globally. Ischemic injury initiates cascade of pathological events comprising energy dwindling, failure of ionic gradients, failure of blood brain barrier (BBB), vasogenic edema, calcium over accumulation, excitotoxicity, increased oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, inflammation and eventually cell death. In spite of such complexity of the disease, the only treatment approved by US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA). This therapy overcome blood deficiency in the brain along with side effects of reperfusion which are responsible for considerable tissue injury. Therefore, there is urgent need of novel therapeutic perspectives that can protect the integrity of BBB and salvageable brain tissue. Advancement in nanomedicine is empowering new approaches that are potent to improve the understanding and treatment of the IS. Herein, we focus nanomaterial mediated drug delivery systems (DDSs) and their role to bypass and cross BBB especially via intranasal drug delivery. The various nanocarriers used in DDSs are also discussed. In a nut shell, the objective is to provide an overview of use of nanomedicine in the diagnosis and treatment of IS to facilitate the research from benchtop to bedside.

[PMID: 34492072 PMCID: PMC8423286 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0257060] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/21/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
Background and purpose The study analyzed the association of functionally significant polymorphisms of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) genes with the development of gastric ulcer (GU) in Caucasians from Central Russia. Methods The 781 participants, including 434 patients with GU (196 Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori)-positive and 238 H. pylori-negative) and 347 controls (all H. pylori-negative) were recruited for the study. Ten SNPs of the MMP1 (rs1799750), MMP2 (rs243865), MMP3 (rs679620), MMP8 (rs1940475), and MMP9 (rs3918242, rs3918249, rs3787268, rs17576, rs17577, and rs2250889) genes were considered for association with GU using multiple logistic regression. The SNPs associated with GU and loci linked (r2≥0.8) to them were analyzed in silico for their functional assignments. Results The SNPs of the MMP9 gene were associated with H. pylori-positive GU: alleles C of rs3918249 (OR = 2.02, pperm = 0.008) and A of rs3787268 (OR = 1.60–1.82, pperm ≤ 0.016), and eight haplotypes of all studied MMP9 gene SNPs (OR = 1.85–2.04, pperm ≤ 0.016) increased risk for H. pylori-positive GU. None of the analyzed SNPs was independently associated with GU and H. pylori-negative GU. Two haplotypes of the MMP9 gene (contributed by rs3918242, rs3918249, rs17576, and rs3787268) increased risk for GU (OR = 1.62–1.65, pperm ≤ 0.006). Six loci of the MMP9 gene, which are associated with H. pylori-positive GU, and 65 SNPs linked to them manifest significant epigenetic effects, have pronounced eQTL (17 genes) and sQTL (6 genes) values. Conclusion SNPs of the MMP9 were associated with H. pylori-positive GU but not with H. pylori-negative GU in Caucasians of Central Russia.

Abstract
Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) is a cerebrovascular disease of genetic origin affecting 0.5% of the population and characterized by abnormally enlarged and leaky capillaries that predispose to seizures, neurological deficits, and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). CCM occurs sporadically or is inherited as dominant condition with incomplete penetrance and highly variable expressivity. Three disease genes have been identified: KRIT1 (CCM1), CCM2 and CCM3. Previous results demonstrated that loss-of-function mutations of CCM genes cause pleiotropic effects, including defective autophagy, altered reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis, and enhanced sensitivity to oxidative stress and inflammatory events, suggesting a novel unifying pathogenetic mechanism, and raising the possibility that CCM disease onset and severity are influenced by the presence of susceptibility and modifier genes. Consistently, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in large and homogeneous cohorts of patients sharing the familial form of CCM disease and identical mutations in CCM genes have led to the discovery of distinct genetic modifiers of major disease severity phenotypes, such as development of numerous and large CCM lesions, and susceptibility to ICH. This review deals with the identification of genetic modifiers with a significant impact on inter-individual variability in CCM disease onset and severity, including highly polymorphic genes involved in oxidative stress, inflammatory and immune responses, such as cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP), matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), and Toll-like receptors (TLR), pointing to their emerging prognostic value, and opening up new perspectives for risk stratification and personalized medicine strategies.

Abstract
Dysregulation of the oxidant-antioxidant system contributes to the pathogenesis of cerebral stroke (CS). Epigenetic changes of redox homeostasis genes, such as glutamate-cysteine ligase (GCLM), glutathione-S-transferase-P1 (GSTP1), thioredoxin reductase 1 (TXNRD1), and myeloperoxidase (MPO), may be biomarkers of CS. In this study, we assessed the association of DNA methylation levels of these genes with CS and clinical features of CS. We quantitatively analyzed DNA methylation patterns in the promoter or regulatory regions of 4 genes (GCLM, GSTP1, TXNRD1, and MPO) in peripheral blood leukocytes of 59 patients with CS in the acute phase and in 83 relatively healthy individuals (controls) without cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. We found that in both groups, the methylation level of CpG sites in genes TXNRD1 and GSTP1 was ≤ 5%. Lower methylation levels were registered at a CpG site (chr1:94,374,293, GRCh37 [hg19]) in GCLM in patients with ischemic stroke compared with the control group (9% [7%; 11.6%] (median and interquartile range) versus 14.7% [10.4%; 23%], respectively, p < 0.05). In the leukocytes of patients with CS, the methylation level of CpG sites in the analyzed region of MPO (chr17:56,356,470, GRCh3 [hg19]) on average was significantly lower (23.5% [19.3%; 26.7%]) than that in the control group (35.6% [30.4%; 42.6%], p < 0.05). We also found increased methylation of MPO in smokers with CS (27.2% [23.5%; 31.1%]) compared with nonsmokers with CS (21.7% [18.1%; 24.8%]). Thus, hypomethylation of CpG sites in GCLM and MPO in blood leukocytes is associated with CS in the acute phase.

Abstract
PURPOSE The aim of this study was screening for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) in symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (sICAS) patients and exploring a possible connection in the genetic background between macrovascular disease and small vessel disease. METHODS There were 400 sICAS patients enrolled in the study. Fazekas scores were applied to WMH classification. Healthy controls were referred to 1,000 Genome Project and GeneSky company who provided 1,007 Chinese healthy controls. Fast target sequencing technology was used to select the SNPs of 102 genes related to the pathogenesis of sICAS in the sICAS patients. RESULTS The allele frequencies of 88 SNPs were significantly different between the sICAS group and the healthy controls (p < 0.05). The allele frequencies of 53 SNPs were significantly different between the sICAS patients with and without WMHs (p < 0.05). Further analysis found that matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) rs17576 was simultaneously related to sICAS and WMHs. The frequency of the rs17576 A allele was significantly lower in sICAS patients when compared to the normal controls (p = 0.03, OR [95% CI] = 0.75 [0.625-0.91]). Also, the frequency of the rs17576 genotypes was significantly different under codominant (p = 0.009), dominant (p = 0.014), and recessive (p= 0.023) models. The frequency of the rs17576 A allele was significantly higher in sICAS with WMH patients, compared to those without WMHs (p = 0.022, OR [95% CI] = 1.54 [1.06-2.22]); the frequency of the rs17576 genotypes was significantly different under codominant (p = 0.019) and recessive (p = 0.032) models. Logistic regression analysis showed that age, hypertension, and MMP9 rs17576 AA genotype were independent risk factors for sICAS with WMHs. CONCLUSION MMP9 rs17576 may be simultaneously associated with the risk of sICAS and WMHs.

Abstract
Data on the allele and genotype frequencies of the three functionally significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) genes (rs1799750 MMP1, rs3918242 and rs17576 MMP9) in Russian patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG), essential hypertension (EH) and peptic ulcer (PU) are presented. Association studies identified these SNPs as possible significant markers associated with many multifactorial disorders, including POAG, EH, and PU. The frequencies of alleles and genotypes of the three SNPs in Russian patients with POAG, EH, and PU were presented separately for the entire study sample, females, and males, respectively. The data can be used as a reference for the Russian population.

Abstract
Preterm birth or PTB (<37 weeks) is a heterogeneous phenotype with numerous biological pathways. The lack of explanation due to complex pathways, inconsistent observations indicates the need for employing the role of genetic determinants to anticipate the danger of PTB. In this present study, we investigated the possible gene-gene interaction of five SNPs with PTB and its association with total MMP-9 levels. A total of 510 recruitments (250 terms and preterm each) were made and were genotyped by Restriction Fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). Generalized Multifactor Dimensionality Reduction (GMDR) method was carried out for determining gene-gene interaction. ANOVA and t-test were used to identify the association of IL-6 polymorphism with PTB alone and correspondingly with PTB and low birth weight infants (i.e. < 2500 kg). The combination of IL-6 and MMP-9 and MMP-1, MMP-8 and MMP-9 polymorphism was selected through GMDR analysis concerning mothers with preterm and term birth (accuracy 0.5921 and 0.8030 with Cross-Validation Consistency (CVC) 10/10 respectively). Increased expression of MMP-9 was reported in cases in those mothers carrying IL-6 G allele, which was profoundly associated with PTB independently. IL-6 polymorphisms showed synergistic effects in terms of increased total MMP-9 levels in the present study.

Abstract
The metalloproteinase (MP) family of zinc-dependent proteases, including matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), a disintegrin and metalloproteases (ADAMs), and a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTSs) plays a crucial role in the extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and degradation activities. A wide range of substrates of the MP family includes ECM components, chemokines, cell receptors, and growth factors. Metalloproteinases activities are tightly regulated by proteolytic activation and inhibition via their natural inhibitors, tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs), and the imbalance of the activation and inhibition is responsible in progression or inhibition of several diseases, e.g., cancer, neurological disorders, and cardiovascular diseases. We provide an overview of the structure, function, and the multifaceted role of MMPs, ADAMs, and TIMPs in several diseases via their cellular functions such as proteolysis of other cell signaling factors, degradation and remodeling of the ECM, and other essential protease-independent interactions in the ECM. The significance of MP inhibitors targeting specific MMP or ADAMs with high selectivity is also discussed. Recent advances and techniques used in developing novel MP inhibitors and MP responsive drug delivery tools are also reviewed.
