Pre-therapeutic molecular biomarkers of pathological response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy in gastric and esophago-gastric junction adenocarcinoma: A systematic review and meta-analysis. Adv Med Sci 2023; 68:138-146. [PMID: 36944288 DOI: 10.1016/j.advms.2023.02.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/10/2022] [Revised: 11/06/2022] [Accepted: 02/27/2023] [Indexed: 03/23/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE Multimodal treatment is the standard of care in patients with locally advanced gastric cancer. Unfortunately, the response rate after neoadjuvant treatment remains limited. The ability to predict the response has a potential to improve patient outcomes by promoting a more individualized approach. We sought to describe the current state of research in pre-treatment molecular biomarkers of response to neoadjuvant therapy in gastric adenocarcinoma available for testing before the initiation of treatment and to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis in order to summarize and evaluate the potential methods. METHODS A systematic MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL literature search was conducted to extract articles on potentially predictive molecular biomarkers of pathological response to neoadjuvant therapy in patients with gastric- and esophago-gastric junction adenocarcinoma. Fixed and random effects models were used to undertake the meta-analysis when appropriate. RESULTS Data on predictive biomarkers was reported in 38 studies. These articles described 47 biomarkers showing statistical significance. After evaluation of all reported biomarkers, 3 of them met the inclusion criteria for meta-analysis. The meta-analysis results indicate that >5 ng/mL pre-therapeutic serum concentration of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA; norm <5 ng/mL) is significantly associated with tumor response (RR = 5.13, 95% CI 2.53-10.43, P = 0.026). CONCLUSION Previous studies describe a large number of candidate biomarkers. Our meta-analysis indicated pre-therapeutic serum concentration of CEA >5 ng/mL as a potential and easy-accessible biomarker available for use before initiation of treatment. However, it could be only an additional tool for complex qualification for neoadjuvant therapy.

Abstract
Nowadays, drug resistance (DR) in gastrointestinal (GI) cancers, as the main reason for cancer-related mortality worldwide, has become a serious problem in the management of patients. Several mechanisms have been proposed for resistance to anticancer drugs, including altered transport and metabolism of drugs, mutation of drug targets, altered DNA repair system, inhibited apoptosis and autophagy, cancer stem cells, tumor heterogeneity, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition. Compelling evidence has revealed that genetic and epigenetic factors are strongly linked to DR. Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) interferences are the most crucial epigenetic alterations explored so far, and among these ncRNAs, circular RNAs (circRNAs) are the most emerging members known to have unique properties. Due to the absence of 5' and 3' ends in these novel RNAs, the two ends are covalently bonded together and are generated from pre-mRNA in a process known as back-splicing, which makes them more stable than other RNAs. As far as the unique structure and function of circRNAs is concerned, they are implicated in proliferation, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, metastasis, and DR. A clear understanding of the molecular mechanisms responsible for circRNAs-mediated DR in the GI cancers will open a new window to the management of GI cancers. Hence, in the present review, we will describe briefly the biogenesis, multiple features, and different biological functions of circRNAs. Then, we will summarize current mechanisms of DR, and finally, discuss molecular mechanisms through which circRNAs regulate DR development in esophageal cancer, pancreatic cancer, gastric cancer, colorectal cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Abstract
Neurocognitive impairments are common in people living with HIV. Some conditions, such as chronic inflammation, astrocyte infection and an impaired blood-brain barrier (BBBi), along with host genetic variants in transporter genes, may affect antiretroviral (ARV) exposure in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The aim of this study was to evaluate ARV CSF penetration according to compartmental inflammation, BBB permeability and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in drug transporter encoding genes. CSF neopterin (ELISA), plasma and CSF ARV concentrations (HPLC) and host genetic variants in ABCC2, HNF4α, SLCO1A2 and SLC22A6 (real-time PCR) were measured. Bi- and multivariate analyses were performed for single ARV and classes. We included 259 participants providing 405 paired plasma and CSF samples. CSF/plasma ratios (CPR) showed an increase for NRTIs and nevirapine with low penetrations for the majority of ARVs. At bi-variate analysis, several associations, including the effect of BBBi (emtricitabine, raltegravir), age (zidovudine and darunavir), and high CSF neopterin (NRTIs and border-line for PIs) were suggested. An association was found between genetic variants and integrase strand transfer (ABCC2 and HNF4α), non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (SLCO1A2), and protease inhibitors (SLC22A6). At multivariate analysis age, gender, BMI, and altered BBB were independent predictors of nucleoside reverse transcriptase CSF concentrations; age (for protease inhibitors) and body mass index and altered BBB (integrase strand transfer inhibitors) were also associated with ARV CSF exposure. We describe factors associated with CSF concentrations, showing that demographic, BBB integrity and, partially, genetic factors may be predictors of drug passage in the central nervous system.

Abstract
Conventional chemotherapy plays a key role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) treatment, however, with intrinsic or acquired chemoresistance being a major constraint. Here, we aimed to identify potential target to reverse such chemoresistance. In the present study, we found significant difference in uridine monophosphate synthetase (UMPS) expression between 5-FU resistant and sensitive HCC cell lines and the overexpression or downregulation of UMPS impacted 5-FU response in HCC cells. We further found that inhibition of UMPS activity with uric acid at concentration present in human plasma decreased the 5-FU sensitivity of HCC cells, while reduction of uric acid levels with uricase improved the 5-FU sensitivity of HCC cells as well as colorectal cancer cells. In vivo studies also suggested that modulation of uric acid levels did affect 5-FU sensitivity of tumors. These data indicated that UMPS was correlated with the 5-FU resistance in HCC cells and uricase sensitized cancer cells to 5-FU through uricase-uric acid-UMP synthase axis, which provided a potential strategy to improve the efficacy of 5-FU-based chemotherapy for human cancers.

Abstract
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) significantly improved the prognosis of patients
with locally advanced resectable gastric cancer but, despite important
progresses, relapse-related death remains a major challenge. Therefore, it
appears crucial to understand which patients will benefit from peri-operative
treatment. Biomarkers such as human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2),
microsatellite instability (MSI), and Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV) have been widely
studied; however, they do not yet guide the choice of perioperative treatment in
clinical practice. We performed a narrative review, including 23 studies,
addressing the value of tissue- or blood-based biomarkers in the neoadjuvant
setting. Ten studies (43.5%) were prospective, and more than half were conducted
in East-Asia. Biomarkers were evaluated only post-NAC (on surgical samples or
blood) in seven studies (30.4%), only pre-NAC (on endoscopic specimens or blood)
in 10 studies (43.5%), and both pre- and post-NAC (26.1%) in six studies. Among
the high variety of investigated biomarkers, some of these including MSI-H or
enzymatic profile (as TS, UGT1A1, MTHFR, ERCC or XRCC) showed promising results
and deserve to be assessed in methodologically sound clinical trials. The
identification of molecular biomarkers in patients treated with NAC for locally
advanced resectable gastric or EGJ cancer remains crucial.

Abstract
The ATP binding-cassette superfamily corresponds the mostly transmembrane transporters family found in humans. These proteins actively transport endogenous and exogenous substrates through biological membranes in body tissues, so they have an important role in the regulation of many physiological functions necessary for human homeostasis, as well as in response regulation to several pharmacological substrates. The development of multidrug resistance has become one of the main troubles in conventional chemotherapy in different illnesses including cancer, being the increased efflux of antineoplastic drugs the main reason for this multidrug resistance, with a key role of the ABC superfamily. Likely, the interindividual variability in the pharmacological response among patients is well known, and may be due to intrinsically factors of the disease, genetic and environmental ones. Thus, the understanding of this variability, especially the genetic variability associated with the efficacy and toxicity of drugs, can provide a safer and more effective pharmacological treatment, so ABC genes are considered as important regulators due to their relationship with the reduction in pharmacological response. In this review, updated information about transporters belonging to this superfamily was collected, the possible role of these transporters in cancer, the role of genetic variability in their genes, as well as some therapeutic tools that have been tried to raise against main transporters associated with chemoresistance in cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to test whether CES1, UMPS, DPYS and TPYS polymorphisms influence the outcomes of gastroenteric cancer patients. METHODS We consecutively enrolled 338 patients who were diagnosed with colorectal and gastric cancer from January 2016 to December 2018 at the Harbin Medical University Cancer Hospital, China. RESULTS We found that the patients with CES1 rs7187684 CC genotype had a higher proportion of stage III-IV and relapse rate significantly compared with CT/TT genotype, and the patients with rs7187684 CC genotype had a higher level of CA199 than CT/TT genotype after adjusted for tumor stage, and medication, age, sex, smoking, and drinking. Moreover, the patients with rs7187684 CC genotype had shorter event-free survival (EFS) than CT/TT genotype, and a significant shorter EFS was also found in the patients with rs2244613 TT genotype than GG or GT genotype. Subset analysis results showed that the male, less-drinking or gastric cancer patients with rs7187684 CC genotype had shorter EFS than the patients with CT/TT genotype. Compared with the patients with CES1 rs2244613 TT genotype, the stage I-II patients with GG/GT genotype had longer progression-free survival (PFS), and the male patients with GG/GT genotype had longer EFS. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that stage III-IV and tumor metastasis could reduce the patients' PFS and EFS. CONCLUSIONS The identified CES1 polymorphisms might provide guide for the identification of gastroenteric cancer patients who were likely to benefit from capecitabine-based chemotherapy.

Abstract
Polyamines are multivalent organic cations essential for many cellular functions, including cell growth, differentiation, and proliferation. However, elevated polyamine levels are associated with a slew of pathological conditions, including multiple cancers. Intracellular polyamine levels are primarily controlled by the autoregulatory circuit comprising two different protein types, Antizymes (OAZ) and Antizyme Inhibitors (AZIN), which regulate the activity of the polyamine biosynthetic enzyme ornithine decarboxylase (ODC). While OAZ functions to decrease the intracellular polyamine levels by inhibiting ODC activity and exerting a negative control of polyamine uptake, AZIN operates to increase intracellular polyamine levels by binding and sequestering OAZ to relieve ODC inhibition and to increase polyamine uptake. Interestingly, OAZ and AZIN exhibit autoregulatory functions on polyamine independent pathways as well. A growing body of evidence demonstrates the dysregulation of AZIN expression in multiple cancers. Additionally, RNA editing of the Azin1 transcript results in a "gain-of-function" phenotype, which is shown to drive aggressive tumor types. This review will discuss the recent advances in AZIN's role in cancers via aberrant polyamine upregulation and its polyamine-independent protein regulation. This report will also highlight AZIN interaction with proteins outside the polyamine biosynthetic pathway and its potential implication to cancer pathogenesis. Finally, this review will reveal the protein interaction network of AZIN isoforms by analyzing three different interactome databases.

Abstract
Previous studies have indicated that genetic variations in individuals may result in changes in gene expression and amino acids. The effect of these changes may lead to different responses to platinum-based chemotherapy. A vast response rate interval and a short survival rate indicate that the efficacy and efficiency of the selection of chemotherapy have not been optimized. This article aims to illustrate the potential relationship of various genetic polymorphisms in response to platinum-based chemotherapy for several types of cancer. This review was conducted using articles from the last three- and five-year periods (2014-2019) that use gene polymorphism and its relationship to the efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy as their theme. A total of 26 out of 488 relevant articles were included based on specific criteria. Through various mechanisms, genes, including ERCC1, ERCC2/XPD, XPC, XPA, XRCC1, APE-1, PARP1, OGG1, ABCC2, MRP, GSTP1, GSTM1, GSTT1, MATE1, and OCT2, have been associated with patient response to platinum-based chemotherapy. We conclude that genetic polymorphism analysis is recommended for the management of cancer so that each patient can be administered therapy based on his or her genetic profile to achieve an effective and efficient outcome.

Abstract
Recently, proton pump inhibitors have become a hot research topic in the field of cancer drug research. However, the specific anti-tumor effect and underlying mechanisms of esomeprazole (ESO) in gastric cancer (GC) have remained elusive. In the present study, the toxic effects of ESO on the GC cell line AGS were investigated. MTT assays confirmed that ESO inhibited the proliferation of AGS cells and significantly enhanced their chemosensitivity. Transwell assays were performed to determine the anti-metastatic effects of ESO in AGS cells. Flow cytometry demonstrated that ESO induced cell apoptosis and caused cell cycle arrest in the S and G2/M phases. Furthermore, the differential expression of 948 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), 114 circular RNAs (circRNAs), 1,197 mRNAs and 199 microRNAs (miRNAs) was detected in AGS cells via microarray analysis and RNA-sequencing. The top 10 differently expressed genes were mostly located on chromosomes 10 and 19. In addition, Gene Ontology analysis indicated that the genes were accumulated in functional terms associated with DNA replication, the cell cycle and the apoptotic signaling pathway. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis revealed a variety of significantly dysregulated signaling pathways and targets, including the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance pathway, forkhead box O signaling pathway, p53 signaling pathway and platinum drug resistance pathway. Subsequently, the interactions of microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2) and ankyrin 2 (ANK2) were noted in a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, which may be important targets of ESO, exerting an anti-tumor effect in AGS cells. Collectively, ESO affects the proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis and chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells by regulating long non-coding RNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA networks.

Abstract
Gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) is the most common histological type of gastric cancer, the fifth according to the frequency and the third among the deadliest cancers. GAC high mortality is due to a combination of factors, such as silent evolution, late clinical presentation, underlying genetic heterogeneity, and effective mechanisms of chemoresistance (MOCs) that make the available antitumor drugs scarcely useful. MOCs include reduced drug uptake (MOC-1a), enhanced drug efflux (MOC-1b), low proportion of active agents in tumor cells due to impaired pro-drug activation or active drug inactivation (MOC-2), changes in molecular targets sensitive to anticancer drugs (MOC-3), enhanced ability of cancer cells to repair drug-induced DNA damage (MOC-4), decreased function of pro-apoptotic factors versus up-regulation of anti-apoptotic genes (MOC-5), changes in tumor cell microenvironment altering the response to anticancer agents (MOC-6), and phenotypic transformations, including epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the appearance of stemness characteristics (MOC-7). This review summarizes updated information regarding the molecular bases accounting for these mechanisms and their impact on the lack of clinical response to the pharmacological treatment currently used in GAC. This knowledge is required to identify novel biomarkers to predict treatment failure and druggable targets, and to develop sensitizing strategies to overcome drug refractoriness in GAC.

Abstract
Despite the significant recent advances in clinical practice, gastric cancer (GC) represents a leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the world. In fact, occurrence of chemo-resistance still remains a daunting hindrance to effectiveness of the current approach to GC therapy. There is accumulating evidence that a plethora of cellular and molecular factors is implicated in drug-induced phenotypical switching of GC cells. Among them, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), autophagy, drug detoxification, DNA damage response and drug target alterations, have been reported as major determinants. Intriguingly, resistant GC phenotype may be the result of GC cell-induced tumor microenvironment (TME) remodeling, which is currently emerging as a key player in promoting drug resistance and overcoming cytotoxic effects of drugs. In this review, we discuss the possible mechanisms of drug resistance and their involvement in determining current GC therapies failure.

Abstract
Background: The role of glutathione s-transferase genes (GSTP1, GSTM1 and GSTT1) variants and the GSTP1 expression level on chemotherapy efficacy of gastrointestinal cancer (GIC) patients were inconsistent. Methods: A meta-analysis about GSTP1, GSTM1 and GSTT1 variants and the GSTP1 expression level on chemotherapy efficacy of GIC patients was performed using data from PubMed, PMC, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Wanfang database. Results: Our meta-analysis enrolled 50 publications including 6518 patients. We found that patients with GIC harboring GSTP1 (IIe105Val) Val locus had higher objective response rates (ORR) than the IIe/IIe genotypic patients (odds ratio (OR) = 1.580, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.159-2.154, P = 0.004). Significant associations were found between the Ile105Val variant and overall survival of Caucasian GIC patients (IIe/Val vs. IIe/IIe: OR = 0.797 (0.674-0.944), P = 0.009). Caucasian GIC patients and gastric cancer patients with GSTT1 null genotype had worse response rates compared to GSTT1 present patients (OR = 0.530 (0.356-0.789), P = 0.002; OR = 0.643 (0.463-0.895), P = 0.009, respectively). Conclusion: This meta-analysis illustrates that GSTP1 IIe105Val and GSTT1 null/present variants could be useful predictors of chemotherapy efficacy in patients with gastrointestinal cancer.

Abstract
Oxaliplatin is important for the clinical treatment of colorectal cancer and other gastrointestinal malignancies, but tumour resistance is limiting. Several oxaliplatin transporters were previously identified but their relative contributions to determining oxaliplatin tumour responses and gastrointestinal tumour cell sensitivity to oxaliplatin remains unclear. We studied clinical associations between tumour expression of oxaliplatin transporter candidate genes and patient response to oxaliplatin, then experimentally verified associations found with MRP2 in models of human gastrointestinal cancer. Among 18 oxaliplatin transporter candidate genes, MRP2 was the only one to be differentially expressed in the tumours of colorectal cancer patients who did or did not respond to FOLFOX chemotherapy. Over-expression of MRP2 (endogenously in HepG2 and PANC-1 cells, or induced by stable transfection of HEK293 cells) decreased oxaliplatin accumulation and cytotoxicity but those deficits were reversed by inhibition of MRP2 with myricetin or siRNA knockdown. Mice bearing subcutaneous HepG2 tumour xenografts were sensitised to oxaliplatin antitumour activity by concurrent myricetin treatment with little or no increase in toxicity. In conclusion, MRP2 limits oxaliplatin accumulation and response in human gastrointestinal cancer. Screening tumour MRP2 expression levels, to select patients for treatment with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy alone or in combination with a MRP2 inhibitor, could improve treatment outcomes.

Gastric Cancer 2018; 21:977-987. [PMID: 29748876 DOI: 10.1007/s10120-018-0830-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2018] [Accepted: 04/25/2018] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to evaluate the new ypTNM staging system in Chinese gastric cancer patients. METHODS We conducted retrospective survival and regression analyses using a database of gastric cancer patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy at the Peking University Cancer Hospital and Institute from January 2007 to January 2015. RESULTS A total of 473 patients were included in the study with 28 pathological complete response (pCR) cases, 3 ypT0N1 cases, 65 stage I cases, 126 stage II cases, and 251 stage III cases. The pCR cases had similar survival to stage I patients (p > 0.05). The 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates of stage I, II and III patients were significantly different (3-year DFS: 89.0, 75.5, and 39.6%, p < 0.001; 5-year OS: 89.6, 65.5, and 36.5%, p = 0.001). Both ypT and ypN are independent predictors of patient survival, while further log-rank tests showed that the ypN stage is of better prognostic value than ypT. Subgrouping analysis revealed that stage III patients of ypT4b and ypN3 had worse survival compared to the rest of stage III cases (p < 0.001). The c-index values of the ypTNM stage and modified ypTNM stage (stage III divided into IIIa and IIIb) were 0.657 and 0.708, respectively (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our data showed significant differences in survival among gastric cancer patients at different ypTNM stages, indicating its prognostic value in the Chinese population. Further detailed analyses may facilitate the subgrouping of each stage to allow for a more accurate evaluation of disease prognosis in gastric cancer patients.

Abstract
Exposure times and dosage required for dietary components to modify DNA methylation patterns are largely unknown. AIM This exploratory research represents the first genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation changes during a randomized-controlled-trial (RCT) for dietary supplementation with broad spectrum vitamins, minerals and amino acids in humans. METHODS Genome-wide changes in methylation from paired, peripheral blood samples were assessed using the Infinium Methylation EPIC 850 K array. RESULTS Methylation increased at 84% of the most significant differentially methylated CpGs; however, none showed significance after adjustment for genome-wide testing. CONCLUSION Micronutrient supplementation is unlikely to have a substantial biological effect on DNA methylation over 10 weeks; however, the trend toward hypermethylation that we observed is likely to become more marked with longer exposure periods.

Abstract
Membrane transporters can be major determinants of the pharmacokinetic profiles of anticancer drugs. The associations between genetic variations of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) and solute carrier (SLC) genes and cancer survival were investigated through a meta-analysis and an association study in the Seoul Breast Cancer Study (SEBCS). Including the SEBCS, the meta-analysis was conducted among 38 studies of genetic variations of transporters on various cancer survivors. The population of SEBCS consisted of 1338 breast cancer patients who had been treated with adjuvant chemotherapy. A total of 7750 SNPs were selected from 453 ABC and/or SLC genes typed by an Affymetrix 6.0 chip. ABCB1 rs1045642 was associated with poor progression-free survival in a meta-analysis (HR = 1.33, 95% CI: 1.07-1.64). ABCB1, SLC8A1, and SLC12A8 were associated with breast cancer survival in SEBCS (Pgene < 0.05). ABCB1 rs1202172 was differentially associated with survival depending on the chemotherapy (Pinteraction = 0.035). Our finding provides suggestive associations of membrane transporters on cancer survival.

Abstract
Identifying single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that influence chemotherapy disposition may help to personalize cancer treatment and limit toxicity. Genome-wide approaches are unbiased, compared with candidate gene studies, but usually require large cohorts. As most chemotherapy is given cyclically multiple blood sampling is required to adequately define drug disposition, limiting patient recruitment. We found that carboplatin and paclitaxel disposition are stable phenotypes in ovarian cancer patients and tested a genome-wide association study (GWAS) design to identify SNPs associated with chemotherapy disposition. We found highly significant SNPs in ABCC2, a known carboplatin transporter, associated with carboplatin clearance (asymptotic P = 5.2 × 106, empirical P = 1.4 × 10−5), indicating biological plausibility. We also identified novel SNPs associated with paclitaxel disposition, including rs17130142 with genome-wide significance (asymptotic P = 2.0 × 10−9, empirical P = 1.3 × 10−7). Although requiring further validation, our work demonstrated that GWAS of chemotherapeutic drug disposition can be effective, even in relatively small cohorts, and can be adopted in drug development and treatment programs.
