RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Renal cancer ranks 10th in the mortality structure of the Russian Federation. The introduction of checkpoint inhibitors has changed the paradigm of treatment of patients with malignant neoplasms. METHOD: Data from clinical trials have shown good progression-free median and median overall survival. Each cancer center has been accumulating its own experience in treating patients with renal cell cancer by applying modern target drugs and immunotherapy. RESULT: In routine clinical practice, oncologists do not get the results that have been demonstrated in clinical trials when evaluating the effectiveness of the therapy. CONCLUSION: In this single-center clinical study, we discuss the results of using nivolumab as mono-therapy and the combination of nivolumab with ipilimumab in metastatic renal parenchyma cancer patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The mitochondrial genome is substantially susceptible to mutations and has high polymorphism due to structural features, location, and lack of recombinant variability, as its inheritance is strictly maternal. All of these events can be accompanied by the accumulation of mitochondrial single nucleotide polymorphisms (mtSNPs) in the sperm. The aim of this research was to analyze the influence of mutations in the MT-CYB gene on sperm quality. METHODS AND RESULTS: We conducted a case‒control study to identify mutations in the mitochondrial cytochrome B (MT-CYB) gene in men with asthenoteratozoospermia (89 cases) and oligoasthenoteratozoospermia (65 cases). The comparison group consisted of 164 fertile men. Somatic cell lysis followed by mtDNA extraction was conducted to analyze three mtDNA polymorphisms, rs28357373 (T15629C (Leu295=), rs527236194 (T15784C (p.Pro346=), rs2853506 (A15218G, p.Thr158Ala). Detection and genotyping of polymorphic loci in the MT-CYB gene was performed using the TaqMan allelic discrimination assay. To verify mutations in the MT-CYB gene, automated Sanger DNA sequencing was used. We found that rs527236194 was associated with asthenoteratozoospermia. rs28357373 in the MT-CYB gene did not show any polymorphism in the analyzed groups, which indicates a rare frequency of the TT genotype in our region. Rs28357373 and rs2853506 are not associated with male sperm abnormalities in the Volga-Ural region. CONCLUSION: The association of the rs527236194 polymorphic variant with sperm parameter alterations suggests its role in the pathophysiology of male infertility and requires further investigation in larger samples.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Renal cell carcinoma represents 3% of all adult malignancies. MicroRNAs exhibit specific functions in various biological processes through their interaction with cellular mRNA involved in apoptosis and cell cycle control. Recent studies have reported the potential association of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in miRNA-binding sites of VHL-HIF1α pathway genes with renal cancer development and progression. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to investigate SNPs invoking an alteration in the nature of interaction with miRNA binding sites of VHL-HIF1α pathway genes. PATIENTS & METHODS: Total 450 cases of histologically and clinically verified ccRCC and 490 controls were included in our study. Genotyping was performed using a TaqMan PCR allelic discrimination method. Kaplan-Meier method of statistical analysis was implemented to analyze the overall patient survival rate. RESULTS: Polymorphism rs10491534 in TSC1 gene was significantly associated with risk of developing advanced ccRCC. Allele G of rs1642742 in VHL gene was significantly prevalent in ccRCC compared with control group aged 55 and older (OR = 1.5566; CI [1.1532-2.1019]). Results from the dominant model combining individuals with AG or AA genotype showed that the A allele bearers of CDCP1 rs6773576 exhibited higher risk of death compared to GG carriers (HR 3.93, 95% CI 1.76-17.21, log-rank P = 0.0033). CONCLUSION: The present study delineated the association of miRNA binding site variants in VHL-HIF1α pathway genes with the ccRCC risk, which may affect clinical outcome.

RESUMO

The aim of this study is to analyse the of expression levels of microRNA-200 family members in patients with metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Analysis of microRNA expression was performed on 23 paired DNA samples extracted from kidney tumour tissue and the surrounding normal renal parenchyma. MicroRna-200c was found to have significantly lower expression (in kidney tumour tissue compared to normal renal parenchyma. No other microRna-200 family members showed statistically significant differences in expression levels between tumour and normal kidney tissue. Recent data suggest that the role of microRNA-200c in tumour pathogenesis is rather contradictory, and the underlying mechanisms by which microRNA-200c affects the carcinogenic potential of malignant cells remains unclear and requires further investigation at the molecular level.

RESUMO

Hearing impairment is one of the most common disorders of sensorineural function and the incidence of profound prelingual deafness is about 1 per 1000 at birth. GJB2 gene mutations make the largest contribution to hereditary hearing impairment. The spectrum and prevalence of some GJB2 mutations are known to be dependent on the ethnic origin of the population. This study presents data on the carrier frequencies of major GJB2 mutations, c.35delG, c.167delT and c.235delC, among 2308 healthy persons from 18 various populations of Eurasia: Russians, Bashkirs, Tatars, Chuvashes, Udmurts, Komi-Permyaks and Mordvins (Volga-Ural region of Russia); Belarusians and Ukrainians (East Europe); Abkhazians, Avars, Cherkessians and Ingushes (Caucasus); Kazakhs, Uighurs and Uzbeks (Central Asia); and Yakuts and Altaians (Siberia). The data on c.35delG and c.235delC mutation prevalence in the studied ethnic groups can be used to investigate the prospective founder effect in the origin and prevalence of these mutations in Eurasia and consequently in populations around the world.
