RESUMO

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is one of the deadliest forms of lung cancer, but few information exists regarding the role of genetics, particularly on Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS). The aim of the study is to explore the evidence available obtained through GWAS studies for SCLC using a systematic review. We performed a literature search in the main databases until July 31st, 2023. We included all human based studies on GWAS for lung cancer which presented results for SCLC. Only studies with participants diagnosed of SCLC with anatomopathological confirmation were included. Fourteen studies were identified; 8 studies showed a relationship between ASCL1 overexpression and SCLC, which may regulate CHRNA5/A3/B4 cluster, producing a consequent nAChR overexpression. Nine papers, including 8 of the previous, found a positive association between SNPs located in chromosome 15 and SCLC. The most important cluster of genes found is CHRNA5/A3/B4 but the mechanism for the role of these genes is unclear. Kyoto Encyclopaedia of Genes and Genome (KEGG) shows that these receptors were found to be overexpressed where nicotine, 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK) and N'-Nitrosonornicotine (NNN) acts, involving different routes in SCLC carcinogenesis.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) comprises 10-15% of all lung cancer cases and is the most aggressive histological type. Survival is poor and the molecular landscape of this disease is extraordinarily complex. The objective of this paper was to perform a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) of this disease using a case-control study specifically designed for small cell lung cancer (SCLC). METHODS: Incident cases were consecutively recruited from 8 hospitals from different regions of Spain. Controls were recruited from the same hospitals using a frequency sampling based on age and sex distribution of cases. Biological samples were obtained along with detailed information on cases and controls lifestyle, including tobacco and radon exposure. RESULTS: We included 271 SCLC cases and 557 controls. We found evidence (p-values<10-5) of an association in the complete dataset for several loci, while MAP4 showed a significant association in the gene-based analysis. Pathway analysis suggested that ATR, ATRIP, MCM4, MCM5, ORC4, RPA3 and CDC25A genes have a role on the onset of SCLC. CONCLUSION: This study provides biological evidence for pathways related to SCLC, offering novel loci for further research.

RESUMO

Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) comprises approximately 10% of all lung cancer cases. Tobacco is its main risk factor; however, occupation might play a role in this specific lung cancer subtype. The effect of occupation on SCLC risk has been hardly studied and therefore we aim to assess the role of occupation on the risk of SCLC. To do this, we designed a multicentric, hospital-based, case-control study. Cases consisted exclusively in SCLC patients and controls were recruited from patients having minor surgery at the participating hospitals. Face to face interviews emphasizing occupation and tobacco consumption were held and residential radon was also measured. Logistic regression models were adjusted with odds ratios with 95%CI as estimations of the effect. 423 cases and 905 controls were included. Smoking prevalence was higher in cases compared to controls. Those who worked in known-risk occupations for lung cancer showed an OR of 2.17 (95%CI 1.33; 3.52), with a similar risk when men were analysed separately. The results were adjusted by age, sex, smoking and indoor radon exposure. Those who worked in known-risk occupations and were moderate or heavy smokers had a SCLC risk of 12.19 (95%CI 5.68-26.38) compared with never or moderate smokers who had not worked in such occupations. Occupation is a relevant risk factor of SCLC, and it seems that its effect is boosted when tobacco smoking is present.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Tobacco consumption and radon exposure are considered the first and second most common causes of lung cancer, respectively. The aim of this study was to analyze both whether selected genetic polymorphisms in loci that are in DNA repair pathways, are related to non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and whether they may modulate the association between residential radon exposure and lung cancer in both smokers and never smokers. METHODS: A multicentre, hospital-based, case-control study with 826 cases and 1201 controls was designed in a radon-prone area. Genotyping was determined in whole blood and residential radon exposure was measured in participants' dwellings. RESULTS: Attending to tobacco exposure, the variant in the gene NBN (rs1805794) was associated with lung cancer in never smokers (OR 2.72; 95%1.44-5.2) and heavy smokers (OR 3.04; 95%CI 1.21-7.69). The polymorphism with the highest lung cancer association was OGG1 (rs125701), showing an OR of 8.04 (95%CI 1.64-58.29) for its homozygous variant genotype in heavy smokers. Attending to indoor radon exposure (>200Bq/m3), rs1452584, for its homozygous variant genotype, showed the highest association (OR 3.04 (95%CI 1.15-8.48). CONCLUSION: The genes analyzed seem to have no association with the fully adjusted model, but they might modulate lung cancer association when different categories of tobacco consumption are considered (i.e. heavy smokers). This association may similarly be elevated for those individuals having high indoor radon exposures, though at a minor extent.
