Sci Rep 2022; 12:3574. [PMID: 35246549 PMCID: PMC8897451 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-05198-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/03/2021] [Accepted: 01/03/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Genetic and epigenetic modifications of genes involved in the key regulatory pathways play a significant role in the pathophysiology and progression of multifactorial diseases. The present study is an attempt to identify single nucleotide variations (SNVs) at CpG sites of promoters of ACAT1, APOB, APOE, CYBA, FAS, FLT1, KSR2, LDLR, MMP9, PCSK9, PHOX2A, REST, SH2B3, SORT1 and TIMP1 genes influencing CpG island (CGI) existence and size associated with the pathophysiology of Diabetes mellitus, Coronary artery disease and Cancers. Promoter sequences located between -2000 to + 2000 bp were retrieved from the EPDnew database and predicted the CpG island using MethPrimer. Further, SNVs at CpG sites were accessed from NCBI, Ensembl while transcription factor (TF) binding sites were accessed using AliBaba2.1. CGI existence and size were determined for each SNV at CpG site with respect to wild type and variant allele by MethPrimer. A total of 200 SNVs at CpG sites were analyzed from the promoters of ACAT1, APOB, APOE, CYBA, FAS, FLT1, KSR2, LDLR, MMP9, PCSK9, PHOX2A, REST, SH2B3, SORT1 and TIMP1 genes. Of these, only 17 (8.5%) SNVs were found to influence the loss of CGI while 70 (35%) SNVs were found to reduce the size of CGI. It has also been found that 59% (10) of CGI abolishing SNVs are showing differences in binding of TFs. The findings of the study suggest that the candidate SNVs at CpG sites regulating CGI existence and size might influence the DNA methylation status and expression of genes involved in molecular pathways associated with several diseases. The insights of the present study may pave the way for new experimental studies to undertake challenges in DNA methylation, gene expression and protein assays.

Abstract
Myeloid sarcoma (MS) is a type of malignant tumor that originates in the bone marrow. This study reports on the treatment of an 11-year-old Uygur girl with a 15-day history of fever and paroxysmal cough, accompanied by right hip pain. During treatment, fatigue and anemia developed, physical strength decreased, and a few petechiae were seen in the lower extremities. Multiple enlarged lymph nodes were palpable in the neck, with slight congestion in the pharynx. Routine blood screening showed three major myeloid lineage abnormalities. Pathological examination revealed the presence of CD10 (-), CD99 (+), CD20 (+), CD3 (-), CD117 (weak+), CD34 (unclear location), TdT (-), Pax5 (-), Ki-67 (50%+), MPO (-), and CD43 (+). The patient was eventually diagnosed with isolated MS. After chemotherapy, no small particles were observed in bone marrow morphology. Complete remission was confirmed by flow cytometric detection of minimal residual disease. Genomic DNA was subjected to targeted sequencing of 236 gene panels to detect somatic mutations and the MSH6 c.3953_3954insAA p.R1318fs germline mutation. Unfortunately, the patient was subsequently lost to follow-up. To our knowledge, an MSH6 germline mutation had not previously been reported in children with MS, and we speculated that an MSH6 germline mutation led to genomic instability, triggering a somatic mutation in multiple genes and ultimately led to the development of MS in this patient. It is suggested that rare base abnormalities may be involved in the development of isolated myeloid sarcomas (IMS).
