Polymorphisms of Genes Encoding Drug Transporters Or Cytochrome P450 Enzymes and Association with Clinical Response in Cancer Patients: a Systematic Review Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology (2019) 84:959–975 https://doi.org/10.1007/s00280-019-03932-0 REVIEW ARTICLE Polymorphisms of genes encoding drug transporters or cytochrome P450 enzymes and association with clinical response in cancer patients: a systematic review Inthuorn Kulma1,2 · Kanyarat Boonprasert1,2 · Kesara Na‑Bangchang1,2,3 Received: 6 May 2019 / Accepted: 20 August 2019 / Published online: 4 September 2019 © Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature 2019 Abstract Purpose Not all patients respond well to cancer chemotherapy. One of the most important factors contributing to treatment response (efcacy and toxicity) is genetic determinant. The current systematic review aims to provide current status of the information on the genetic contribution of genes encoding drug transport proteins and drug metabolizing enzyme, cytochrome P450 (CYP), and relationship with clinical outcomes of cancer chemotherapy. Methods The literature search was performed through PubMed and ScienceDirect databases. One hundred and four research articles that fulflled the inclusion criteria and had none of the exclusion criteria were included in the analysis. Results Various studies reported conficting results for the polymorphisms of the major genes and association with treatment outcomes in patients with various types of cancer. Nevertheless, among the investigated gene polymorphisms, it appears that the 1236C>T, 3435C>T and 2677 G>T/A SNPs of the drug transporter gene ABCB1 were the most promising determinants of clinical outcomes. Although both 1236C>T and 3435C>T polymorphism are synonymous SNPs, several studies have demonstrated that not all synonymous SNPs are silent. Therefore, using the haplotype (1236C>T, 2677G>T, and 3435C>T) analysis rather than a single SNP may be a more useful approach for phenotype prediction. Some of the patients with variants of CYP genes were associated with unsatisfactory treatment response (efcacy and toxicity), suggesting that these variants may be associated with either reduction or absence of CYP enzyme activity. Conclusions The controversial results may be due to several factors including diference in populations studied, sample size, tumor sites and stages, chemotherapeutic drug regimens, and evaluation parameters for efcacy and/or toxicity. Before the information can be successfully applied to individualized cancer chemotherapy, further studies should be focused on these promising genetic markers and their association with clinical outcomes using standardized protocols.

  • Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Mce1 Protein Complex Initiates Rapid Induction of Transcription of Genes Involved in Substrate Trafficking
    Genes and Immunity (2012) 13, 496–502 & 2012 Macmillan Publishers Limited All rights reserved 1466-4879/12 www.nature.com/gene ORIGINAL ARTICLE Mycobacterium tuberculosis Mce1 protein complex initiates rapid induction of transcription of genes involved in substrate trafficking R Stavrum1, H Valvatne1,8, A-K Stavrum2,3, LW Riley4, E Ulvestad5, I Jonassen3,6, TM Doherty7,9 and HMS Grewal1,5 The mammalian cell entry (Mce)1 protein complex has an important role during the initial phase of a Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tuberculosis) infection. Murine macrophages were infected with M. tuberculosis H37Rv or D-mce1 H37Rv, and total RNA was isolated from the host cells at 15, 30 and 60 min, and 4 and 10 h post-infection. With the aim of studying the role for the Mce1 protein complex on host gene expression, the RNA was hybridized onto 44 K whole-genome microarrays. Selected genes were verified by reverse-transcriptase quantitative PCR (RT-QPCR). ‘Transport’ was the most overrepresented biological process during the first hour post H37Rv infection. Five genes (Abca1 (21.0-fold), Slc16a10 (3.1-fold), Slc6a12 (17.9-fold), Slc6a8 (2.3-fold) and Nr1h3, (5.5-fold)) involved in substrate trafficking were verified by RT-QPCR to be upregulated by 42-fold 1 h post H37Rv infection. By 1 h post D-mce1 H37Rv infection, only Abca1 and Slc6a12 were upregulated by 42-fold. A number of other genes, which may be directly involved in substrate trafficking or share the same transcription, were found to have expression profiles similar to the genes involved in substrate trafficking.

Hediger1 Received: 4 March 2020 /Revised: 24 June 2020 /Accepted: 2 July 2020 / Published online: 7 August 2020 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Sodium glucose transporters (SGLTs) belong to the mammalian solute carrier family SLC5. This family includes 12 different members in human that mediate the transport of sugars, vitamins, amino acids, or smaller organic ions such as choline. The SLC5 family belongs to the sodium symporter family (SSS), which encompasses transporters from all kingdoms of life. It furthermore shares similarity to the structural fold of the APC (amino acid-polyamine-organocation) transporter family. Three decades after the first molecular identification of the intestinal Na+-glucose cotransporter SGLT1 by expression cloning, many new discoveries have evolved, from mechanistic analysis to molecular genetics, structural biology, drug discovery, and clinical applications. All of these advances have greatly influenced physiology and medicine. While SGLT1 is essential for fast absorption of glucose and galactose in the intestine, the expression of SGLT2 is largely confined to the early part of the kidney proximal tubules, where it reabsorbs the bulk part of filtered glucose. SGLT2 has been successfully exploited by the pharmaceutical industry to develop effective new drugs for the treatment of diabetic patients. These SGLT2 inhibitors, termed gliflozins, also exhibit favorable nephroprotective effects and likely also cardioprotective effects.

Brandes1,2 Oxidized phospholipids (oxPAPC) induce endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis. Here we show that oxPAPC induce a gene network regulating serine-glycine metabolism with the mitochondrial methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase (MTHFD2) as a cau- sal regulator using integrative network modeling and Bayesian network analysis in human aortic endothelial cells. The cluster is activated in human plaque material and by atherogenic lipo- proteins isolated from plasma of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD). Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within the MTHFD2-controlled cluster associate with CAD. The MTHFD2-controlled cluster redirects metabolism to glycine synthesis to replenish purine nucleotides. Since endothelial cells secrete purines in response to oxPAPC, the MTHFD2- controlled response maintains endothelial ATP. Accordingly, MTHFD2-dependent glycine synthesis is a prerequisite for angiogenesis. Thus, we propose that endothelial cells undergo MTHFD2-mediated reprogramming toward serine-glycine and mitochondrial one-carbon metabolism to compensate for the loss of ATP in response to oxPAPC during atherosclerosis.

    Supplemental Information SI Methods Animal studies Heterozygote mice (B6;129.Cg-Gt(ROSA)26Sor tm20(CAG-Ctgf-GFP)Jsd) were crossed with female Foxd1Cre/+ heterozygote mice 1, and experimental mice were selected as Foxd1Cre/+; Rs26CIG/+. In some studies Coll-GFPTg or TCF/Lef:H2B-GFPTg mice or Foxd1Cre/+; Rs26tdTomatoR/+ mice were used as described 2; 3. Left kidneys were subjected to ureteral obstruction using a posterior surgical approach as described 2. In some experiments recombinant mouse DKK1 (0.5mg/kg) or an equal volume of vehicle was administered by daily IP injection. In the in vivo ASO experiment, either specific Lrp6 (TACCTCAATGCGATTT) or scrambled negative control ASO (AACACGTCTATACGC) (30mg/kg) (Exiqon, LNA gapmers) was administered by IP injection on d-1, d1, d4, and d7. In other experiments anti-CTGF domain-IV antibodies (5mg/kg) or control IgG were administered d-1, d1 and d6. All animal experiments were performed under approved IACUC protocols held at the University of Washington and Biogen.

This study was performed to produce a transcrip- 5% of all human genes are associated with transporters which tional database of the intestinal transporters of beagle dogs. is consistent with the biological significance of transporters Total RNA was isolated from the duodenum and the expres- and their roles in cell homeostasis.
