Association Of T2285c Polymorphism In Parp1 Gene Coding Region With Its Expression, Activity And Nsclc Risk Along With Prognosis

Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP1), a DNA repair gene, is the crucial player in the maintenance of genome integrity. T2285C polymorphism in coding region of PARP1 has been reported to be associated with susceptibility to tumours. We explored the relationship and mechanism of T2285C polymorphism of PARP1 to its expression and activity along with risk and prognosis in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). mRNA expression was measured using quantitative RT-PCR assay or collected from TCGA dataset. Protein expression was examined with immunoblotting assay. Genotypes were determined by PCR- RFLP and sequencing approaches. PARP1 activity was determined with enzyme activity assay. Regulation of SIRT7 to PARP1 was determined by overexpression and small interference experiment. Association of PARP1 T2285C polymorphism with NSCLC risk was evaluated via multiple logistic regression analysis. Comparison of treatment response and progression-free survival (PFS) of NSCLC patients among different genotypes or regimens was made by chi-square test. Results indicated that mRNA and protein expression of PARP1 dramatically increased in NSCLC tissues in comparison with paired para-carcinoma tissues (P < 0.05). TC/CC mutant genotypes were associated with markedly enhanced PARP1 mRNA level compared with TT genotype (P = 0.011). No significant difference was discovered in PARP1 protein expression among TT, TC or CC genotypes (P > 0.05). Subjects with variant allele C had higher risk of NSCLC in comparison with allele T carriers [odds ratio = 1.560; P = 0.000]. NSCLC patients carrying mutational TC or CC genotypes were correlated with unfavourable response to platinum-based chemotherapy (TT vs. TC vs. CC, P = 0.010), and shorter PFS compared with TT genotype (TT vs. TC vs. CC, P = 0.009). T2285C mutation of PARP1 resulted in the enhancement of its mRNA, but the decrease of enzyme activity in tumour cell. Overexpression of SIRT7 attenuated PARP1 expression and activity. These findings suggest the variant allele C of T2285C polymorphism of PARP1 linked to an increase of NSCLC risk, and unfavourable efficacy and prognosis of NSCLC patients with platinum-based chemotherapy, which might be associated with enhancement of its mRNA expression and the diminishment of activity. Identification of PARP1 T2285C polymorphism and mRNA expression may be the promising way for the individualised treatment of NSCLC.
