Genetic Analysis of D-Loop Region of Mitochondrial DNA Sequence in Iranian Patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP): A Case-Control Study

چکیده مقاله:
Background and Objectives: Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is an inherited disorder and a rare form of colorectal cancer. This disease appears equally in both sexes and its occurrence is more in the second or third decade of life. Mutations and alterations of the mitochondrial genome, especially the D-loop region, have been reported in various human tumors. But the exact role of these mutations in the pathogenesis and progression of tumors is still unclear. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the occurrence of mtDNA nucleotide mutations in the D-loop region, especially the hypervariable regions (HVR) in FAP patients. Materials and Methods: In this case-control study, 56 FAP patients were investigated for mutations in the mitochondrial D-loop region by Touchdown PCR, single-stranded conformation polymorphism (SSCP), and sequencing analysis. Fisher's exact statistical tool was used to find the relationship between these nucleotide changes and the risk of FAP disease. Results: Nineteen nucleotide changes were identified in the D-loop region of patients with FAP symptoms. Two of these nucleotide changes (C16335T and C16352T) were novel and not previously reported in any disease. The results of the statistical analysis of observed mutations showed a statistically significant difference between the patient's group and the control group (p<0.05). Conclusion: The findings of this study indicate a positive correlation of mtDNA mutations in the D-loop region in all FAP cases compared to the matched control groups. Therefore, the mutation in mitochondrial non-coding sequences may lead to the production of defective proteins in the respiratory chain by affecting the expression process of mitochondrial genes. Key words: Mitochondrial DNA, D-loop, Malignancy, Colorectal cancer, Familial adenomatous polyposis Funding: This study was funded by Yazd University, Yazd, Iran. Conflict of interest: None declared. Ethical approval: The Ethics Committee of Yazd University approved the study (IR.YAZD.REC.1401.053). How to cite this article: Heidari Mohammad Mehdi, Afkhami Elham, Khatami Mehri, Ghasemi Farzaneh.

Association of Pathogenic Missense and Nonsense Mutations in Mitochondrial COII Gene with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP)
Nuclear genetic mutations have been extensively investigated in solid tumors. However, the role of the mitochondrial genome remains uncertain. Since the metabolism of solid tumors is associated with aerobic glycolysis and high lactate production, tumors may have mitochondrial dysfunctions. Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) is a rare form of colorectal cancer and an autosomal dominant inheri...

BACKGROUND Duodenal cancer is one of the leading causes of death in familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) patients. An endoscopic surveillance programme was therefore initiated in 1988, the outcome of which is described in this paper. METHODS We report the 10 year follow up of 114 patients with FAP who were prospectively screened for the presence and severity of duodenal adenomas. RESULTS Si...
