Abstract
Glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK-3β) plays an important role in the development of neurodegenerative diseases. However, the underlying effect of GSK-3β polymorphism on chemobrain in cancer survivors is unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the correlation between GSK-3β polymorphism and chemotherapy-associated retrospective memory deficits in breast cancer survivors. The difference in GSK-3β gene expression between breast cancer patients and healthy controls was confirmed using bioinformatics technology. All participants (197 with breast cancer and 40 healthy controls) underwent prospective and retrospective memory tests, and five single-nucleotide polymorphism loci of GSK-3β (rs3107669, rs1154597, rs334543, rs334558 and rs3755557) were genotyped from peripheral blood. Breast cancer survivors had memory impairment after chemotherapy (P<0.0001). The expression difference of the GSK-3β gene was determined through bioinformation analysis, and a genotype frequency difference of GSK-3β rs3107669 was found between the breast cancer and healthy control groups. GSK-3β rs3107669 was a genetic risk in comparison to the healthy controls (OR=0.382; 95% CI=0.186-0.786; P=0.009). Breast cancer with the GSK-3β rs3107669 (C/A+A/A) genotype was a protective factor for chemobrain (Beta=-0.306; 95% CI=-5.556~-2.145; P<0.0001) from multiple linear regression. The C/A+A/A genotype carrier performed better on the retrospective memory test than the C/C genotype (z=-4.302, P<0.0001). Breast cancer patients with chemotherapy who also carried the GSK-3β rs3107669 (C/C) genotype more easily presented cognitive deficits. The GSK-3β rs3107669 polymorphism was a feasible genetic risk factor for chemotherapy-associated retrospective memory impairments in breast cancer survivors.

Abstract
ObjectiveChemotherapy-related brain impairments and changes can occur in patients with lung cancer after platinum chemotherapy and have a substantial impact on survivors’ quality of life. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the brain neuropathological alterations and response mechanisms to provide a theoretical basis for rehabilitation strategies. This study aimed to investigate the related brain morphological changes and clarified their correlation with clinical and pathological indicators in patients with lung cancer after platinum chemotherapy.MethodsOverall, 28 patients with chemotherapy, 56 patients without chemotherapy, and 41 healthy controls were categorized in three groups, matched for age, sex, and years of education, and included in the cross-sectional comparison of brain volume and cortical thickness. 14 matched patients before and after chemotherapy were subjected to paired comparison for longitudinal observation of brain morphological changes. Three-dimensional T1-weighted images were acquired from all participants, and quantitative parameters were calculated using the formula of the change from baseline. Correlation analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between abnormal morphological indices and clinical information of patients.ResultsBrain regions with volume differences among the three groups were mainly distributed in frontal lobe and limbic cortex. Additionally, significant differences in cerebrospinal fluid were observed in most ventricles, and the main brain regions with cortical thickness differences were the gyrus rectus and medial frontal cortex of the frontal lobe, transverse temporal gyrus of the temporal lobe, insular cortex, anterior insula, and posterior insula of the insular cortex. According to the paired comparison, decreased brain volumes in the patients after chemotherapy appeared in some regions of the frontal, parietal, temporal, and occipital lobes; limbic cortex; insular cortex; and lobules VI-X and decreased cortical thickness in the patients after chemotherapy was found in the frontal, temporal, limbic, and insular cortexes. In the correlation analysis, only the differentiation degree of the tumor and duration after chemotherapy were significantly correlated with imaging indices in the abnormal brain regions.ConclusionsOur findings illustrate the platinum-related brain reactivity morphological alterations which provide more insights into the neuropathological mechanisms of patients with lung cancer after platinum chemotherapy and empirical support for the details of brain injury related to cancer and chemotherapy.

Abstract
Previous findings have indicated that catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) may be a genetic risk factor for chemobrain. However, the mediation of chemobrain by COMT polymorphisms in breast cancer patients with various levels of Ki-67 remains unknown. The current research assessed the genetic risk across COMT genotypes for chemobrain in breast cancer patients with various levels of Ki-67. Breast cancer patients (65 with Ki-67<14%, 75 with Ki-67>14%) completed cognitive tests before and after adjuvant chemotherapy, and three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of COMT (rs165599, rs4680, rs737865) were genotyped from peripheral blood. Lower cognitive test results in breast cancer patients were displayed in those before chemotherapy. Furthermore, the event-based prospective memory (EBPM) scores of patients in the Ki-67>14% group were worse than those in the patients in the Ki-67<14% group after chemotherapy (z=-7.51, P<0.01), but the time-based prospective memory (TBPM) scores of the two groups were not significantly different. The COMT rs737865 A/G genotype was associated with memory protection (codominant model: adjusted odds ratio (OR)=0.135, 95% CI=0.026-0.706, P=0.018), and A/G genotype carriers exhibited better performance on the EBPM test than the A/A genotype. Levels of Ki-67 were likely to be associated with EBPM decline in breast cancer patients. Taken together, COMT rs737865 polymorphisms are a potential genetic risk factor for chemobrain in breast cancer patients with various levels of Ki-67.

Abstract
Background Previous findings indicated that polymorphism in gene catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) had been linked to chemotherapy-related cognitive impairment (CRCI). Nevertheless, the motivation of COMT polymorphisms in regulating cognitive impairment in breast cancer survivors with disparate status of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) was still vague. Objective The current research aimed to evaluate the regulation of the risk by COMT genotype on CRCI in breast cancer survivors with disparate status of HER2. Methods Breast cancer survivors (103 with HER2− and 118 with HER2+) underwent neuropsychological tests before and after chemotherapy, containing event- and time-based prospective memory (EBPM and TBPM). Three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were estimated by providing peripheral blood, containing COMT (rs165599, rs737865, and rs4680). Results The EBPM and TBPM performances was lower as compared with these before chemotherapy (z = −7.712, z = −2.403, respectively, p < 0.01). Furthermore, the EBPM and TBPM performances of HER2− group survivors were lower than those of HER2+ group survivors after chemotherapy (z = −7.181, p < 0.01; z = −2.205 p < 0.05, respectively). The survivors with COMT (rs165599) A/A genotype carriers had a meaningfully poorer chance of memory descend [dominant model: adjusted, OR = 2.21, CI (95%) = 1.156–4.225, p = 0.016] and showed better on TBPM test, relative to G/G genotype. Patients with the COMT (rs737865) A/G and G/G genotype showed protective function than the patients with the A/A and performed better on MMSE and TBPM tests. Conclusion The types of HER2 may be correlated to chemotherapy-related prospective memory impairments in breast cancer survivors. Furthermore, the COMT (rs165599, rs737865) polymorphisms were correlated to the risk of TBPM decline scores and possibly be a potential genetic identifying for increasing risk of CRCI in breast cancer patients with disparate status of HER2.

Cross-Sectional Characterization of Local Brain Network Connectivity Pre and Post Breast Cancer Treatment and Distinct Association With Subjective Cognitive and Psychological Function. Front Neurol 2021; 12:746493. [PMID: 34777216 PMCID: PMC8586413 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2021.746493] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/23/2021] [Accepted: 10/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Objective: We aimed to characterize local brain network connectivity in long-term breast cancer survivors compared to newly diagnosed patients. Methods: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and subjective cognitive and psychological function data were obtained from a group of 76 newly diagnosed, pre-treatment female patients with breast cancer (mean age 57 ± 7 years) and a separate group of 80, post-treatment, female breast cancer survivors (mean age 58 ± 8; mean time since treatment 44 ± 43 months). The network-based statistic (NBS) was used to compare connectivity of local brain edges between groups. Hubs were defined as nodes with connectivity indices one standard deviation or more above network mean and were further classified as provincial (higher intra-subnetwork connectivity) or connector (higher inter-subnetwork connectivity) using the participation coefficient. We determined the hub status of nodes encompassing significantly different edges and correlated the centralities of edges with behavioral measures. Results: The post-treatment group demonstrated significantly lower subjective cognitive function (W = 3,856, p = 0.004) but there were no group differences in psychological distress (W = 2,866, p = 0.627). NBS indicated significantly altered connectivity (p < 0.042, corrected) in the post-treatment group compared to the pre-treatment group largely in temporal, frontal-temporal and temporal-parietal areas. The majority of the regions projecting these connections (78%) met criteria for hub status and significantly less of these hubs were connectors in the post-treatment group (z = 1.85, p = 0.031). Subjective cognitive function and psychological distress were correlated with largely non-overlapping edges in the post-treatment group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Widespread functional network alterations are evident in long-term survivors of breast cancer compared to newly diagnosed patients. We also demonstrated that there are both overlapping and unique brain network signatures for subjective cognitive function vs. psychological distress.

Abstract
Genetic polymorphisms involved in mercury toxicokinetics and toxicodynamics may be associated with severe mercury toxicity. This study aimed to investigate the impact of an ALAD polymorphism on chronic mercury exposure and the health situation of indigenous children from the Brazilian Amazon. One-hundred-and-three indigenous children (under 15 years old) were included and genotyped (rs1800435) using a TaqMan validated assay. The mean age was 6.6 ± 4.5 years old, 60% were female, 49% presented with anemia, and the mean hair mercury concentration was 7.0 ± 4.5 (1.4-23.9) µg/g, with 49% exceeding the reference limit (≥6.0 µg/g). Only two children were heterozygous ALAD, while the others were all wild type. Minor allele frequency (ALAD G) and heterozygous genotype (ALAD CG) were 1% and 2%, respectively. The two children (12 and 14 years old) with the ALAD polymorphism had mercury levels above the average as well as had neurological symptoms related to chronic mercury exposure, such as visual field alterations, memory deficit, distal neuropathy, and toe amyotrophy. Both children also reported frequent consumption of fish in the diet, at least three times a week. In conclusion, our data confirm that an ALAD polymorphism can contribute to mercury half-life time, harmful effects, and neuropsychological disorders in indigenous children with chronic mercury exposure to gold mining activity.
