Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is a cytokine with a key role in proinflammation and multiple diseases, including cancer. The gene encoding TNF-α is located within a highly polymorphic region on chromosome 6p21.3; two polymorphisms -308G/A (rs1800629) and -238G/A (rs361525) have been associated with occurrence of human diseases. There is a debate in recent meta-analyses that reached discrepant conclusions regarding the potential role of TNF-α polymorphisms in multiple myeloma (MM) risk. The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis is to investigate the association between the aforementioned two polymorphisms with the risk and survival of MM. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eligible articles were identified through an extensive search in PubMed database (end of search: June 18, 2020). The pooled effect estimates were calculated following the random-effects models by Der Simonian and Laird. Separate analyses were conducted by ethnicity. Between-study heterogeneity was quantified, and the deviation of genotype frequencies in controls from the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium was evaluated. RESULTS Eighteen studies (2934 cases, 4291 controls) have been included in the quantitative synthesis examining risk and 5 studies for survival (557 cases). No association was found between -308G/A and -238G/A TNF-α polymorphisms and MM susceptibility in all genetic models for both Caucasian and East Asian populations. There was no association between -308G/A and -238G/A TNF-α polymorphisms and survival (overall or progression-free) of MM. CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis did not reveal a significant effect of -308G/A and -238G/A TNF-α polymorphisms upon risk or survival of MM.

Associations of interleukin-4 and interleukin-4 receptor loci with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility. Int Immunopharmacol 2021; 97:107659. [PMID: 33895482 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2021.107659] [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: 12/13/2020] [Revised: 04/02/2021] [Accepted: 04/03/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
Some functional polymorphisms in immune-regulating genes could affect the development of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). We enrolled 721 patients with ESCC and 1,208 healthy controls to explore the roles of rs2227282 (C > G) and rs2243283 (C > G) loci in the interleukin-4 (IL4) gene and rs1801275 loci in the interleukin-4 receptor (IL4R) gene for the occurrence of ESCC. As for IL4, the single nucleotide polymorphism rs2227282 (C > G) conferred an overall decreased risk for ESCC (adjusted P = 0.005, power = 0.816 in GG vs. CC genetic models). A stratification analysis of IL4 rs2227282 (C > G) and rs2243283 (C > G) and IL4R rs1801275 (A > G) loci with the ESCC risk revealed that the IL4 rs2243283 (C > G) polymorphism was a protective factor for the susceptibility to ESCC in some subgroups (women: power = 0.932 in CG vs. CC and 0.956 in CG/GG vs. CC; subjects aged ≥63 years: power = 0.844 in CG/GG vs. CC; never-smokers: power = 0.893 in CG vs. CC and 0.882 in CG/GG vs. CC; never-drinkers: power = 0.904 in CG vs. CC and 0.862 in CG/GG vs. CC). We also investigated the association of IL4 rs2227282 and rs2243283 and IL4R rs1801275 loci with the lymph node status. However, a null relationship was found. In conclusion, the present study highlighted that IL4 rs2227282 (C > G) and rs2243283 (C > G) loci are protective factors for the occurrence of ESCC.

Deep MRD profiling defines outcome and unveils different modes of treatment resistance in standard- and high-risk myeloma. Blood 2021; 137:49-60. [PMID: 32693406 DOI: 10.1182/blood.2020006731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 74] [Impact Index Per Article: 24.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients with multiple myeloma (MM) carrying standard- or high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities (CAs) achieve similar complete response (CR) rates, but the later have inferior progression-free survival (PFS). This questions the legitimacy of CR as a treatment endpoint and represents a biological conundrum regarding the nature of tumor reservoirs that persist after therapy in high-risk MM. We used next-generation flow (NGF) cytometry to evaluate measurable residual disease (MRD) in MM patients with standard- vs high-risk CAs (n = 300 and 90, respectively) enrolled in the PETHEMA/GEM2012MENOS65 trial, and to identify mechanisms that determine MRD resistance in both patient subgroups (n = 40). The 36-month PFS rates were higher than 90% in patients with standard- or high-risk CAs achieving undetectable MRD. Persistent MRD resulted in a median PFS of ∼3 and 2 years in patients with standard- and high-risk CAs, respectively. Further use of NGF to isolate MRD, followed by whole-exome sequencing of paired diagnostic and MRD tumor cells, revealed greater clonal selection in patients with standard-risk CAs, higher genomic instability with acquisition of new mutations in high-risk MM, and no unifying genetic event driving MRD resistance. Conversely, RNA sequencing of diagnostic and MRD tumor cells uncovered the selection of MRD clones with singular transcriptional programs and reactive oxygen species-mediated MRD resistance in high-risk MM. Our study supports undetectable MRD as a treatment endpoint for patients with MM who have high-risk CAs and proposes characterizing MRD clones to understand and overcome MRD resistance. This trial is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01916252.

Abstract
Previous researches exploring associations between multiple myeloma (MM) and genetic polymorphisms showed controversial results. In this investigation, we aimed to make a meta-analysis to assess the association between MM risk and genetic polymorphisms. We searched for articles on genetic polymorphism and MM risk in Web of Science and PubMed databases from 1951 to August 2019. We computed the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) extracted from included articles. The meta-analysis showed no significant associations between MM risks and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α (rs1800629/rs361525/rs1799724), interleukin (IL)-6 (rs1800795), multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) (rs1045642), Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) (rs1801131/rs1801133) polymorphisms. In summary, the study shows that the TNF-α (rs1800629/rs361525/rs1799724), IL-6 (rs1800795), MDR1 (rs1045642), and MTHFR (rs1801131/rs1801133) polymorphisms may not be associated with MM susceptibility. Thus, we do not need more expensive and useless studies to explore the associations between MM risks and these genetic polymorphisms.

Abstract
The present study performed a retrospective observational study in order to investigate the relationship between the interleukin family gene polymorphisms and risk of multiple myeloma (MM), based on sixteen case-control studies that contained 2,597 patients with MM and 3,851 controls. The results demonstrated that the genotypes IL-6 and IL-1 GG increased the risk of MM by approximately 40.8 and 80.2% compared with the genotypes AA and CC [odds ratio (OR)=1.14, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.88-1.47, and OR=1.16, 95% CI, 0.61-2.19; respectively]. The results also revealed a significant association between T:C polymorphism of the IL-6 and IL-10 and the risk of MM (TC/CC: OR=1.37, 95% CI, 0.88-2.16 and TT/CC: OR=1.26, 95% CI, 0.77-2.06, respectively). Additionally, no significant association was identified between the C:A polymorphisms of the IL-6 (rs8192284) and IL-10 (rs1800872) receptors and the overall risk of MM (P>0.05). G:C polymorphisms of the IL-1β1464G>C and IL-6572G>C significantly increased the risk of MM (P<0.05). However, it has been determined that there is a significant association between the C:T polymorphism of the IL-1α-889C>T and IL-1β-3737C>T and the risk of MM (P<0.001). Subgroup analysis revealed that the detection of G:A polymorphisms in the IL-6 promoter (OR=1.05, 95% CI, 0.78-1.44) is more accurate in MM samples of the Asian population (OR=1.24, 95% CI, 0.92-1.74). In addition, no significant association was identified between the IL gene polymorphisms in MM samples categorized by ethnicity and the IL family type (P=0.27). These single nucleotide polymorphism loci may be the appropriate gene markers for gene screening and a promising therapeutic strategy in the prognostics of patients with MM.

Abstract
B-cell lymphomas can be classified as Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (NHL). The incidence of NHL is variable and affected by age, gender, racial, and geographic factors. There is strong evidence that the immune-regulatory cytokines have a major role in hematologic malignancies. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between seven single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in two selected cytokines (IL-6 rs1800795G > C, rs1800796G > C, rs1800797G > A, IL-10 rs1800871G > A, rs1800872G > T, rs1800890A > T, rs1800896T > C) and the risk and overall survival of DLBCL patients in a Jordanian Arab population. One hundred and twenty-five DLBCL patients diagnosed at King Abdullah University Hospital (KAUH) from the period 2013–2018 and 238 matched healthy controls were included in the study. Genomic DNA was extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues. Genotyping of the genetic polymorphisms was conducted using a sequencing protocol. Our study showed no significant differences in the distribution of all studied polymorphisms of DLBCL between patients and controls. The IL-6 rs1800797 was the only SNP to show significant survival results, DLBCL subjects with the codominant model (GG/AG/AA) genotypes and recessive model (AA genotype in comparison with the combined GG/GA genotype) had worse overall survival (p = 0.028 and 0.016, respectively).

Abstract
Chitinase 3-like 1 (CHI3L1) is a secreted glycoprotein that mediates inflammation, macrophage polarization, apoptosis, and carcinogenesis. The expression of CHI3L1 is strongly increased by various inflammatory and immunological conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, and several cancers. However, its physiological and pathophysiological roles in the development of cancer and neurodegenerative and inflammatory diseases remain unclear. Several studies have reported that CHI3L1 promotes cancer proliferation, inflammatory cytokine production, and microglial activation, and that multiple receptors, such as advanced glycation end product, syndecan-1/αVβ3, and IL-13Rα2, are involved. In addition, the pro-inflammatory action of CHI3L1 may be mediated via the protein kinase B and phosphoinositide-3 signaling pathways and responses to various pro-inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, and interferon-γ. Therefore, CHI3L1 could contribute to a vast array of inflammatory diseases. In this article, we review recent findings regarding the roles of CHI3L1 and suggest therapeutic approaches targeting CHI3L1 in the development of cancers, neurodegenerative diseases, and inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma, an incurable malignancy of the plasma cells in the bone marrow, has a complex pathogenesis due to clonal heterogeneity. Over the years, many clinical trials and researches have led to the development of effective myeloma treatments, resulting in survival prolongation. Molecular prognostic markers for risk-stratification to predict survival, and predictive markers for treatment response are being extensively explored. This review discusses the current risk-adaptive strategies based on genetic and molecular risk signatures that are in practice to predict survival and describes the future prognostic and predictive biomarkers across the fields of genomics, proteomics, and glycomics in myeloma. Gene expression profiling and next generation sequencing are coming to the forefront of risk-stratification and therapeutic-response prediction. Similarly, proteomic and glycomic-based platforms are gaining momentum in biomarker discovery to predict drug resistance and disease progression.

Abstract
Objective: Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) is an important cytokine involved in inflammation, immune response, and other biological processes. The association between polymorphism -308G/A in its promoter and the risk of multiple myeloma (MM) is not clear. Thus, we conducted a meta-analysis to clarify this question. Materials and Methods: Twelve eligible studies, which included 2204 MM cases and 3478 controls, were enrolled in our meta-analysis by searching the PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar databases up to December 2018. The effect of polymorphism -308G/A on MM risk was evaluated by calculating the pooled odds ratio (OR) and the 95% confidence interval (CI). Furthermore, the Q-test and I2 statistical analyses were used to estimate the degree of heterogeneity. Sensitivity analysis was conducted to test the robustness of the meta-analysis results. Publication bias was assessed by Egger’s test and visual inspection of a funnel plot. Results: In the dominant model, -308G/A polymorphism was associated with reduced MM risk (OR=0.80, 95% CI: 0.65-0.97), and it also demonstrated a significant protective effect with a pooled OR of 0.82 (95% CI: 0.68-0.99) in the Caucasian subgroup. Because of the limited number of individual studies with AA genotype carriers, only eight studies were included in the recessive model, and no significant difference was observed. Moreover, the meta-analysis of the allele frequency demonstrated that the A allele has a protective effect against MM risk with a pooled OR of 0.83 (95% CI: 0.69-0.99). Sensitivity analysis suggested that the synthesized effect size was not influenced by any individual study. Moreover, the Egger’s test statistical analysis suggested that publication bias was not obvious in the present analysis. Conclusion: Overall, the -308G/A polymorphism was associated with reduced MM risk in the dominant model and allele frequency. Further investigation is needed to gain better insight.
