    Abstract Background/aim: Functional and bioinformatic studies provide strong evidence that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) can alter the molecular mechanisms of cancer through their interactions with DNA, RNAs, and proteins. This study aimed to evaluate the role of H19 and LINC00675 lncRNAs in colorectal cancers (CRCs) in terms of clinicopathological features.
    Materials and methods: Tumor and tumor-free surrounding tissue samples were obtained from 51 CRC cases. Total RNA isolation and cDNA synthesis were performed. qPCR was performed using the TaqMan non-coding lncRNA assay specific for H19 and LINC00675. Preoperative levels of plasma markers, lncRNA expression, and clinicopathological characteristics of the cases were evaluated statistically.
    Results: Expression of H19 in tumor tissue was found to be 2.11 times higher than that of tumor-free surrounding tissue (p<0.001). LINC00675 levels were found to be approximately three times higher in colon tumors than tumors with rectal involvement (p=0.019). There was a correlation between H19 expression and creatinine (r=0.408; p=0.003). In addition, correlations were detected between LINC00675 with albumin (r=0.303; p=0.03), and between LINC00675 with globulin (r=0.332; p=0.02).
    Conclusion: H19 is a candidate biomarker that can be evaluated in terms of prognosis and antineoplastic treatment response, while LINC00675 may be an important marker of the microenvironment of advanced stage tumors, especially in tumors with rectal involvement.

    Abstract Background/aim: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of leading cancers in terms of incidence and mortality. Interaction of tumor cells with the surrounding microenvironment plays a crucial role in the development and progression of CRC. Many pathways such as the kynurenine pathway, OX40/OX40L-mediated signaling and microRNAs targeting PD-L1 may be involved in CRC development by affecting T cell activation, thus creating an immune-deficient microenvironment. Herein, our goal was to assess the association between plasma levels of tryptophan (TRP), kynurenine (KYN), KYN/TRP ratio, soluble OX40 (sOX40) and PD-L1-targeting miR-138-5p and CRC risk.
    Patients and methods: Plasma concentrations of TRP and KYN were determined by HPLC; sOX40 was measured by ELISA whereas circulating miR-138-5p was measured by quantitative PCR in pathologically confirmed CRC patients and colonoscopy-verified CRC-free controls without polyps (control group 1) and with polyps (control group 2).
    Results: We found significantly lower plasma levels of TRP in CRC patients compared to control groups which resulted in significantly higher KYN/TRP ratio in CRC patients than in the controls (p=0.007). Plasma levels of sOX40 did not significantly differ between groups. The levels of circulating miR-138-5p were significantly lower in CRC patients (relative median value 0.02) than in the control groups (relative median values 0.2 and 4.29, respectively) (p=0.03). Plasma levels of KYN and sOX40 were considerably higher in patients with no tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) than those with TILs whereas circulating miR-138-5p had opposite expression pattern in plasma.
    Conclusion: The kynurenine pathway and miR-138-5p are associated with CRC risk and plasma levels of KYN, sOX40 and miR-138-5p are related to TILs, making them possible target molecules in possible immunotherapeutic targets for CRC.

    Abstract NORAD, non-coding RNA activated by DNA damage, is a Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) transcript that modulates genome stability and has been reported to be dysregulated in different cancers. Although it has been reported to be upregulated in tumor cells mostly for solid organ cancers, it has also been reported to be downregulated in some cancers. Although the pathophysiological mechanism is not fully understood, a negative correlation between NORAD and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) has been shown in experimental models, but this situation has not been evaluated in terms of cancer. We aimed to evaluate the potential roles of these two biomarker candidates together and separately in the clinicopathological axis in Laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) in a case-control study setting. The interactions of NORAD and ICAM1 at the RNA level were evaluated interactively by the RIblast program. sICAM1 (soluble intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1) levels were determined by ELISA in one hundred and five individuals (forty-four LSCC, sixty-one control) and lncRNA NORAD expression in eighty-eight tissues (forty-four LSCC tumors, forty-four tumor-free surrounding tissues) was determined by Real-time PCR. While the energy treesholud was - 16 kcal/mol between NORAD and ICAM1, the total energy was 176.33 kcal/mol, and 9 base pair pairings from 4 critical points were detected. NORAD expression level was found to be higher in tumor surrounding tissue compared to tumor tissue, and sICAM1 was higher in the control group compared to LSCC (p = 0.004; p = 0.02). NORAD discreminte tumor surrounding tissue from tumor (AUC: 0.674; optimal sensitivity:87.50%; optimal specificity 54.55%; cut-off point as >1.58 fold change; P = 0.034). The sICAM1 level was found to be higher in the control (494,814 ± 93.64 ng/L) than LSCC (432.95 ± 93.64 ng/L) (p = 0.02). sICAM1 discreminte control group from LSCC (AUC: 0.624; optimal sensitivity 68,85%; optimal specificity 61,36%; cut-off point ≤115,0 ng/L; (p = 0.033). A very strong negative correlation was found between NORAD expression and patients' sICAM1 levels (r = -.967; n = 44; p = 0.033). sICAM1 levels were found to be 1.63 times higher in NORAD downregulated subjects compared to upregulated ones (p = 0.031). NORAD was 3.63 times higher in those with alcohol use, and sICAM 1 was 5.77 times higher in those without distant organ metastasis (p = 0.043; 0.004). The increased NORAD expression in the tumor microenvironment in LSCC, the activation of T cells via TCR signaling, and the decrease of sICAM in the control group in correlation with NORAD suggests that ICAM1 may be needed as a membrane protein in the tumor microenvironment. NORAD and ICAM1 may be functionally related to tumor microenvironment and immune control in LSCC.

    Abstract Glioma is the most prevalent and lethal type of primary tumor of central nervous system. The regulatory role of calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D3, has been determined in various cellular processes including cell survival and apoptosis. To study the impact of AKT-pathway inhibition with or without calcitriol combination on glioma cell viability, the effects of AT7867 (AKT-pathway inhibitor) and calcitriol on cell viability and apoptosis were investigated in glioma C6 cell-line. Optimal doses of calcitriol and AT7867 were determined by MTT- and xCELLigence-assays. Both agents (alone/in combination) effectively suppressed the proliferation of C6 cells. While AT7867 inhibited glioma cell viability more effectively than calcitriol, this inhibitory action of AT7867 was not significantly increased by calcitriol combination. The expression levels of vitamin D receptor(VDR)-triggered molecules, AKT-pathway components and apoptosis factors were compared between calcitriol-, AT7867- and calcitriol + AT7867-treated and non-treated cells. CYP24A1 gene was upregulated and DBP, CYP1A1, CYP27B1, EGFRvIII, AKT-pathway (AKT1, MTOR, CREB, PTEN), apoptosis (BAD, CYC-C, CASP3, APAF-1, BCL2) and MMP3 genes were downregulated by calcitriol treatment.AT7867 treatment induced CYP27B1 upregulation, reduced VDR and AKT-pathway (PI3K, MTOR, CREB, PTEN) gene expression levels but showed a relatively less pronounced effect on apoptosis-related gene levels. The combination of calcitriol and AT7867 treatment generated an effect that was similar to that induced by calcitriol alone. Our results demonstrate that calcitriol and AT7867 have differing actions on AKT- and apoptotic-pathways of C6 glioma cell-line. Calcitriol has a lesser viability reducing impact than AT7867 putatively due to its apoptosis inhibiting action.

    Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the possible relationship between galectin-3 gene variants, serum level, gene expression level, and the risks and survivals of resectable non-small cell lung cancer patients.
    Methods: The rs4644 and rs4652 variants of galectin-3 were genotyped by TaqMan single nucleotide polymorphism assay using genomic deoxyribonucleic acid isolated from the peripheral blood of 65 (54 males, 11 females; mean age: 60.1±11.9 years; range, 34 to 83 years) with Stage IA-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer who underwent primary surgical treatment and 95 healthy individuals (48 males, 47 females; mean age: 53.9±13.5 years; range, 32 to 87 years) between March 2017 and September 2018. Circulating galectin-3 levels in serum samples of the patient and control groups were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Messenger ribonucleic acid expression of galectin-3 in tumor and surrounding tissues of the patient group was examined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Both predictive and prognostic significance of the results were analyzed.
    Results: The presence of angiolymphatic invasion was significant in the patients with rs4652 AA genotype (p=0.04). Serum galectin-3 levels were significantly higher in the patients than the controls (p<0.0001). The patients with rs4644 CA/CC (p<0.0001 and p<0.0001) and rs4652 AA/AC (p=0.001 and p<0.0001) genotypes had higher serum galectin-3 levels than their corresponding controls. Serum galectin-3 levels increased in the presence of vascular invasion in patients with both rs4644 AC (p=0.03) and rs4652 AC (p=0.019) genotypes. The receiver operating characteristic curve suggested serum galectin-3 level as a strong predictive marker for the patient group with a cut-off value of 17.089 ng/mL (area under the curve: 0.910±0.04; 95% confidence interval: 0.832-0.988; p<0.001). Univariate analysis revealed the association of lower serum galectin-3 levels with better survival (p=0.048). Multivariate survival analysis showed that only high serum galectin-3 levels tended to be related to survival of the patients (hazard ratio: 5.106; 95% confidence interval: 0.956-27.267; p=0.056).
    Conclusion: The presence of galectin-3 gene variants may lead to histopathological differences among patients with non-small cell lung cancer. Serum galectin-3 level may be a valuable diagnostic biomarker and be associated with survival of these patients.

    Abstract This study explores the machine learning-based assessment of predisposition to colorectal cancer based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). Such a computational approach may be used as a risk indicator and an auxiliary diagnosis method that complements the traditional methods such as biopsy and CT scan. Moreover, it may be used to develop a low-cost screening test for the early detection of colorectal cancers to improve public health. We employ several supervised classification algorithms. Besides, we apply data imputation to fill in the missing genotype values. The employed dataset includes SNPs observed in particular colorectal cancer-associated genomic loci that are located within DNA regions of 11 selected genes obtained from 115 individuals. We make the following observations: (i) random forest-based classifier using one-hot encoding and K-nearest neighbor (KNN)-based imputation performs the best among the studied classifiers with an F1 score of 89% and area under the curve (AUC) score of 0.96. (ii) One-hot encoding together with K-nearest neighbor-based data imputation increases the F1 scores by around 26% in comparison to the baseline approach which does not employ them. (iii) The proposed model outperforms a commonly employed state-of-the-art approach, ColonFlag, under all evaluated settings by up to 24% in terms of the AUC score. Based on the high accuracy of the constructed predictive models, the studied 11 genes may be considered a gene panel candidate for colon cancer risk screening.

    Abstract Immunomodulatory signals regulate the self-tolerance, activation, priming and survival processes of T cells. Programmed cell death protein 1 (PD1), Programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) inhibitory signals and CD27, CD28 costimulators have been detected for many solid organ cancers in tumor-infiltrating T cells. It was aimed to investigate the immune cell-based regulatory genetic variants in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) in terms of clinicopathological features. Genotyping was performed by PCR-RFLP method for PD-1 rs2227981, PD-L1 rs2890658, CD28 rs3116496, CD27 rs2267966 genetic variants from genomic DNAs extracted from peripheral blood samples in One Hundred Thirty-Six individuals (Sixty-one LSCC and seventy-five controls). Analysis of SNPs was carried out according to multiple inheritance models (co-dominant, dominant, recessive, over-dominant and log-additive). There was no difference between LSCC and control groups in genotype/allele distribution for PD-1 and PD-L1 (p > 0.05). In the PD-1 overdominant model, the CT genotype was found to be high (p = 0.036) in those without a family history. The frequency of C allele (AC+CC) in the PD-L1 dominant model was higher in alcohol users and those with reflux (p = 0.024; p = 0.001 respectively). In the Dominant model for PD-L1, the AA genotype was lower in moderately and well-differentiated tumors than in poorly differentiated tumors (p = 0.02). CD27 AT and CD28 CT genotypes were found to be higher in LSCC patients compared to the control group (p = 0.009; p = 0.01 respectively), while linkage disequilibrium (LD) was detected between CD27 and CD28 (p = 0.02). In the CD28 dominant model, C allele (CT+CC) carriage was found to be high in those with family history and in those without reflux and perineural invasion (p = 0.01; p = 0.01; p = 0.03 respectively). In LSCC, PD-L1 rather than PD-1 has a prognostic effect in terms of clinicopathology, and the LD and clinicopathological relationships detected between CD28 and CD27 genotypes suggest that the hereditary immune checkpoint-dependent T cell traffic may be pathophysiologically important.

    Abstract Background: Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) is a surface glycoprotein important for tumor invasion and angiogenesis. The present research is conducted to investigate whether specific gene polymorphism of ICAM-1 K469E (rs5498) and plasma redox status could be associated with laryngeal cancer (LC) development. Since there is no clear evidence which investigates the relationship between ICAM-1 polymorphism and ROS-mediated plasma protein oxidation in LC, our study is the first significant contribution for investigating the relationship.
    Methods: The study covered patients with primary LC and their age-matched healthy control subjects. Evaluation of ICAM-1 K469E (rs5498) gene polymorphism was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Plasma redox status was assessed with spectrophotometric methods.
    Results: In the current paper, we found that LC patients with GG genotype had a decreasing trend for the plasma oxidative damage biomarker levels when compared with all allele genotypes (AA and AG).
    Conclusion: We concluded that G allele of the ICAM-1 K469E gene plays a significant role in the optimal regulation of plasma redox homeostasis in patients with LC.

    Abstract This study explores the machine learning-based assessment of predisposition to colorectal cancer based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP). Such a computational approach may be used as a risk indicator and an auxiliary diagnosis method that complements the traditional methods such as biopsy and CT scan. Moreover, it may be used to develop a low-cost screening test for the early detection of colorectal cancers to improve public health. We employ several supervised classification algorithms. Besides, we apply data imputation to fill in the missing genotype values. The employed dataset includes SNPs observed in particular colorectal cancer-associated genomic loci that are located within DNA regions of 11 selected genes obtained from 115 individuals. We make the following observations: (i) random forest-based classifier using one-hot encoding and K-nearest neighbor (KNN)-based imputation performs the best among the studied classifiers with an F1 score of 89% and area under the curve (AUC) score of 0.96. (ii) One-hot encoding together with K-nearest neighbor-based data imputation increases the F1 scores by around 26% in comparison to the baseline approach which does not employ them. (iii) The proposed model outperforms a commonly employed state-of-the-art approach, ColonFlag, under all evaluated settings by up to 24% in terms of the AUC score. Based on the high accuracy of the constructed predictive models, the studied 11 genes may be considered a gene panel candidate for colon cancer risk screening.
