Genotype-Environment Interaction Analysis of NQO1, CYP2E1, and NAT2 Polymorphisms and the Risk of Childhood Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Report From the Mexican Interinstitutional Group for the Identification of the Causes of Childhood Leukemia.

ABSTRACT: Background: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the main type of cancer in children. In Mexico and other Hispanic populations, the incidence of this neoplasm is one of the highest reported worldwide. Functional polymorphisms of various enzymes involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics have been associated with an increased risk of developing ALL, and the risk is different by ethnicity. The aims of the present study were to identify whether NQO1, CYP2E1, and NAT2 polymorphisms or some genotype-environmental interactions were associated with ALL risk in Mexican children. Methods: We conducted a case-control study including 478 pediatric patients diagnosed with ALL and 284 controls (children without leukemia). Ancestry composition of a subset of cases and controls was assessed using 32 ancestry informative markers. Genetic-environmental interactions for the exposure to hydrocarbons were assessed by logistic regression analysis. Results: The polymorphisms rs1801280 (OR 1.54, 95% CI 1.21-1.93), rs1799929 (OR 1.96, 95% CI 1.55-2.49), and rs1208 (OR 1.44, 95% CI 1.14-1.81) were found to increase the risk of ALL; being the risks higher under a recessive model (OR 2.20, 95% CI 1.30-1.71, OR 3.87, 95% CI 2.20-6.80, and OR 2.26, 95% CI 1.32-3.87, respectively). Gene-environment interaction analysis showed that NAT2 rs1799929 TT genotype confers high risk to ALL under exposure to fertilizers, insecticides, hydrocarbon derivatives, and parental tobacco smoking. No associations among NQO1, CYP2E1, and ALL were observed. Conclusion: Our study provides evidence for the association between NAT2 polymorphisms/gene-environment interactions, and the risk of childhood ALL in Mexican children.

Project description:Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common cancer in children around the globe. Mexico City has one of the highest incidence rates of childhood leukemia worldwide with 49.5 cases per million children under the age of 15 which is similar to that reported for Hispanic populations living in the United States. In addition, it has been noted a dismal prognosis in Mexican and Hispanic ALL pediatric population. Although ALL, like cancer in general, has its origins in endogenous, exogenous, and genetic factors, several studies have shown that the immune system also plays a deterministic role in cancer development. Among various elements of the immune system, T lymphocytes and NK cells seem to dominate the immune response against leukemia. The aim of the present study was to perform a phenotypic and functional characterization of NK cells in ALL Mexican children at the moment of diagnosis and before treatment initiation. A case-control study was conducted by the Mexican Interinstitutional Group for the Identification of the Causes of Childhood Leukemia (MIGICCL). 41 cases were incident ALL children younger than 17 years old and residents of Mexico City. 14 controls were children without leukemia, matched by age and sex with cases. NK cell function was evaluated by degranulation assays towards K562 cells and SLAM-associated protein (SAP) expression was measured by intracellular staining. All assays were performed using peripheral blood mononuclear cells from controls and patients. The results indicate that NK mediated cytotoxicity, measured by CD107a degranulation assays in response to K562 cells, was reduced in ALL patients compared to controls. Interestingly, an impaired NK cell killing of target cells was not equally distributed among ALL patients. In contrast to patients classified as high-risk, standard-risk patients did not display a significant reduction in NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Moreover, patients presenting a leukocyte count ≥ 50,000xmm3 displayed a reduction in NK-cell mediated cytotoxicity and a reduction in SAP expression, indicating a positive correlation between a reduced SAP expression and an impaired NK cell-mediated citotoxicity. In the present study it was observed that unlike patients with standard-risk, NK cells from children presenting high-risk ALL, harbor an impaired cytotoxicity towards K562 at diagnosis. In addition, NK cell function was observed to be compromised in patients with a leukocyte count ≥50,000xmm3, where also it was noticed a decreased expression of SAP compared to patients with a leukocyte count <50,000xmm3. These data indicate NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity is not equally affected in ALL patients, nevertheless a positive correlation between low SAP expression and decreased NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity was observed in ALL patients with a leukocyte count ≥50,000xmm3. Finally, an abnormal NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity may represent a prognostic factor for high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Project description:Background: The identification of genetic risk factors for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL), are increasingly urgent and necessary. Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the association of the genetic polymorphisms ABCC1 rs3743527, NCF4 rs1883112 and CBR3 rs1056892 with ALL. Methods: DNA samples were obtained in 71 children with ALL (from 2 to 18 years) and in 71 controls without ALL, to determine the polymorphisms by real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), using specific TaqMan probes in a StepOne® thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, United States). Results: The results of the Odds Ratio analysis show that in the rs1883112 polymorphism of the NCF4 gene, the heterozygous allele has a risk effect for ALL (OR = 3.1870, CI = 1.8880-7.9383 and p = 0.0002), in turn the mutated genotype (AA) is associated with a protective effect (OR = 0.26, 0.1248 to 0.5434 and p = 0.0003). On the other hand, the CBR3 rs1056892 polymorphism shows a significant association of risk to ALL, in the presence of the HT genotype (OR = 2.77, IC = 1.3837 to 5.5651 and p = 0.004) and the mutated genotype of this polymorphism has a significant association with protection to ALL in the HM genotype (OR = 0.52, IC = 0.2639 to 1.0304 and p = 0.05). While the inheritance models of the polymorphisms let us see that of the rs1883112 polymorphism of the NCF4 polymorphism; the HT genotype of the codominant model shows a protective effect against ALL (OR = 0.4117, IC = 0.1718 to 0.9866 and p = 0.04), the recessive model shows us and confirms what we already saw in table number 3, being that there is an association with protective effect in the HM genotype (OR = 0.2604, IC = 0.1248 to 0.5434 and p = 0.0003). In the polymorphism rs1056892 of the CBR3 gene, a protection association was found in the heterozygous allele of the codominant model (OR = 0.3448, IC = 0.1375 to 0.8896 and p = 0.0274). In addition, the recessive inheritance model for the HM genotype shows a protective effect to ALL, (OR = 0.52, CI = 0.9919 to 3.8638 and p = 0.05). Conclusion: There is an evident impact of the NCF4 rs1883112 and CBR3 rs1056892 polymorphisms with an increased risk of susceptibility to ALL; Likewise, through the codominant inheritance model, the effect of the variation of the CBR3 rs1056892 gene as a protective factor against ALL was evaluated.
