To describe the genetic variants that may be associated with the development of head and neck cancer (HNC) and functionally validating the molecular implications.
A prospective observational study was carried out on a family of 3 generations in which 3 members had developed HNC. Peripheral blood sample was taken in a routine procedure for exome sequencing in one relative and genotyping in the remaining twelve relatives. For the functional analysis all-trans retinoic acid (atRA) was extracted from saliva and serum and measured using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS). The presence of HPV-DNA.
None of the patients smoked or consumed alcohol. The presence of HPV DNA was not detected in any of the biopsied samples. A total amount of 6 members out of 13 (46.15%) carried out the same mutation of CYP26B1 (2p13.2; G>T). The mean plasma concentration of atRA was 3.3109 ± 1.4791 pg/mL for the study family and 4.7370 ± 1.5992 pg/mL for the controls (p = 0.042).
Lower levels of atRA were confirmed in the study family, which may open the way to the possible relationship between the polymorphism CYP26B1 (2p13.2; G>T) and HNC.
描述可能与头颈部癌症(HNC)发展相关的遗传变异,并对其分子影响进行功能验证。
对一个有 3 代家族进行了前瞻性观察研究,其中有 3 名成员患有 HNC。对 1 名亲属进行常规外周血样本采集,用于外显子组测序,对其余 12 名亲属进行基因分型。为了进行功能分析,从唾液和血清中提取全反式视黄酸(atRA),并使用超高效液相色谱-串联质谱(UPLC-MS/MS)进行测量。检测 HPV-DNA 的存在。
所有患者均不吸烟或饮酒。在任何活检样本中均未检测到 HPV DNA 的存在。在 13 名成员中,共有 6 名(46.15%)携带 CYP26B1(2p13.2;G>T)的相同突变。研究家族的 atRA 平均血浆浓度为 3.3109±1.4791pg/mL,对照组为 4.7370±1.5992pg/mL(p=0.042)。
研究家族中 atRA 水平较低,这可能为 CYP26B1(2p13.2;G>T)多态性与 HNC 之间的可能关系提供了依据。
