Previously, we have found that individual susceptibility to esophageal cancer in Taiwan was closely related to the consumption of tobacco, alcohol and areca. These factors exerted a synergistic effect on the risk for esophageal cancer. On the other hand, the genetic variation was also found important in determining the individual susceptibility to esophageal cancer. Genetic polymorphisms of the xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes, GSTP1, GSTT1, and CYP1A1, tumor suppressor gene, p53, or DNA repair enzymes, XRCC1 or hOGG1, can significantly influence the risk of esophageal cancer. Given that the DNA damage is the common form induced by the environmental carcinogens and the main contributor to esophageal carcinogenesis, the individual variation in the repairing capacity for damaged DNA would play a important role in determine the tendency for individual carcinogenesis of the esophagus. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate whether the genetic alteration of the DNA repair genes, hOGG1, and XRCC1 can modify the individual risk to esophageal cancer. Previously, we have developed the technique of laser capture microdissection (LCM) to obtain pure tumor DNA for analysis. Using this technique, we have alleotyping the hOGG1 on intron 4 and exon 7, where the genetic polymorphisms locates. We also genotyped the patients of esophageal cancer for the hOGG1 Ser 326 Cys genetic polymorphism on intron 7. The expression of the hOGG1 in tumor was also examined by immunohistochemical staining. Totally, we evaluated the status of LOH in tumor from 90 patients. Sixty-seven of them further received immunohistochemical staining for the hOGG1 expression. 204 patients and 266 normal control received genotyping for the hOGG1 polymorphisms. We found that, the risk for the esophageal cancer was enhanced by the presence of the hOGG1 326 Cys allele in the males who did not regularly consume tobacco, alcohol, or areca nut, with ORs(95% CI) being 3.09 (1.22-7.81) for the non-smokers, 2.40 (1.08-5.31) for the non-alcohol drinkers, and 1.86 (0.99-3.49) for the non-areca chewers. We also found the allelic loss in genetic locus of hOGG1 is a very common episode with 62.2% of cases on the intron 4 and 56.7% of cases on the exon 7. The expression of the hOGG1 in the tumor tissue were also reduced, with 82% of the patients having tumor without expressing or expressing only a very low level of hOGG1 (less than 10% of the tumor cells). This implies that repair of the oxidative damaged DNA, 8-oxoG, is an important mechanism for prevention of neoplasm in the esophagus. Through the genetic variation produced by the polymorphism, the function of the hOGG1 might have a further detriment once allele was lost under the continuous challenge of the DNA damage. Therefore hOGG1 is an important tumor suppressor gene for the esophageal carcinogenesis. |
