Abstract

To provide a systematic and quantitative summary of dietary factors and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) risk. A systematic review and meta-analysis included prospective cohort studies from 2000 to 2024 reporting relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for RA incidence relating to 32 different dietary exposures. Linear and non-linear dose–response analyses were conducted. Thirty studies were included, involving 2,986,747 participants with 9,677 RA cases. Linear dose–response analysis suggested that each 2-unit per week increase in total alcohol intake was linked to 4% risk reduction (RR (95%-CI), heterogeneity (I2), NutriGrade score: 0.96 (0.94, 0.98), 58%, moderate certainty), and beer consumption was associated with a 10% reduction per 2 units/week increase (0.90 (0.84, 0.97), 0%, very low certainty). Each 2-unit/week increase in total alcohol intake was associated with a 3% decrease in seropositive RA risk (0.97 (0.96, 0.99), 28%, moderate certainty). Increased intakes of fruit (per 80 g/day) and cereals (per 30 g/day) were associated with 5% (0.95 (0.92, 0.99), 57%, moderate certainty) and 3% (0.97 (0.96, 0.99), 20%, moderate certainty) reduced risk, respectively. Conversely, tea consumption showed a 4% increased risk per additional cup/day (1.04 (1.02, 1.05), 0%, moderate certainty). Non-linear associations were observed for total coffee, vegetables, oily fish, and vitamin D supplementation. Data on dietary patterns and specific micronutrients were limited. The findings suggest that moderate alcohol consumption and a higher intake of fruits, oily fish, and cereals are associated with a reduced risk of RA, while tea and coffee may be linked to an increased risk. Optimising dietary intake of certain food components may reduce RA risk, despite moderate-quality evidence. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

19. The effects of dietary vitamins, lipids and temperature on teleost immunity

Abstract

Singular or dual dietary depletions of vitamins C and E in Atlantic salmon parr increased susceptibility to Aeromonas salmonicida challenge. An array of immune parameters were evaluated to identify the involvement of these vitamin depletions on the immune response. Dietary vitamin E levels in salmon had no impact on haematological parameters, total serum protein or lysozyme levels. Similarly, dietary vitamin E levels did not affect leucocyte antibody production, macrophage activating factor (MAF) release and respiratory burst (RB) phenomena. However, haemolytic and opsonic properties of complement were compromised in vitamin E depleted salmon. Parenteral administration of vitamin E to vitamin E depleted carp did not elevate phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) lymphocyte proliferation responses or complement activity. In vitro additions of vitamin E to lymphocytes from carp fed a commercial diet did not elevate PHA proliferation responses either. The increased disease susceptibility provoked by dietary vitamin C restriction in Atlantic salmon was not correlated with serum protein levels, differential leucocyte numbers or phagocyte functions as tested by RB activity or phagocytosis by macrophages. Lymphocyte functions were operational in these fish as examined by MAF secretion and antibody production. Analogous to vitamin E depletion, dietary vitamin C restriction in salmon compromised complement haemolytic activity. Elevating the vitamin C content of diets above normal levels enhanced complement activity in salmon. Vitamin C was a potent modulator of rainbow trout leucocyte functions. In vitro supplementation of vitamin C in the sodium (NaAsc) or polyphosphate (PPAsc) form was required for PHA-proliferation responses. MAF secretion was also augmented by in vitro additions of NaAsc to leucocytes obtained from vitamin C depleted trout. Injecting NaAsc into depleted fish elevated PHA proliferation responses compared with saline-injected controls. Leucocytes from the latter group could recover proliferative responses to levels associated with NaAsc-injected fish with in vitro additions of 1x10-3 and 1x10-4M PPAsc. Increased disease susceptibility, reduced complement activity and haematocrit values were symptomatic of combined dietary vitamin C and E depletion in salmon parr. Total and differential leucocyte numbers, or serum parameters including antiprotease activity and total protein level were unaffected by this dietary regime. Although poorly adherent, macrophages obtained from dually depleted salmon had similar RB values and expressed greater responsiveness to a MAF-containing supernatant than vitamin sufficient counterparts. Lymphocyte functions were impervious to dual vitamin depletion as antibody and MAF production responses were intact. In vitro additions of NaAsc and PPAsc were shown to elevate RB responses in macrophages from vitamin-restricted and -adequate salmon. MAF secretion was demonstrated to be a temperature-dependent phenomenon in rainbow trout leucocytes. After 48h acclimation at low in vitro temperatures (6 C), leucocytes obtained from trout at 14C expressed impoverished MAF production. Acclimation of trout to 7 C did riot rescue MAF production. Also, normal RB activity was reduced in macrophages obtained from fish at 14 C after 48h at 6 C in vitro. However, if allowed to acclimate, these macrophages become more responsive to MAF and recovered RB activity to levels associated with macrophages held at 10 and 18C. RB responses of macrophages from fish at 7 C functioned equally well across a wide range of in vitro temperature regimes. Phagocytic activity of macrophages obtained from fish at 14 C and placed at 6 C in vitro for 48h expressed temperature sensitivity. This was especially apparent in fish fed a dietary ?-3/?-6 fatty acid ratio of 2.0. However, this dietary regime also elevated phagocytic activity of these macrophages to such an extent, that their response surpassed that of macrophages from fish fed commercial diets or ?-3/?-6 ratios of 0.5 and 1 even at low in vitro temperatures.

Abstract

Background: Over 20 susceptibility single-nucleotide poly-morphisms (SNP) have been identified for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and its precursor, Barrett esophagus (BE), explaining a small portion of heritability.Methods: Using genetic data from 4,323 BE and 4,116 EAC patients aggregated by international consortia including the Barrett's and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Consortium (BEACON), we conducted a comprehensive transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) for BE/EAC, leveraging Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) gene-expression data from six tissue types of plausible relevance to EAC etiology: mucosa and muscularis from the esophagus, gastroesophageal (GE) junction, stomach, whole blood, and visceral adipose. Two analytical approaches were taken: standard TWAS using the predicted gene expression from local expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL), and set-based SKAT association using selected eQTLs that predict the gene expression. Results: Although the standard approach did not identify significant signals, the eQTL set-based approach identified eight novel associations, three of which were validated in independent external data (eQTL SNP sets for EXOC3, ZNF641, and HSP90AA1). Conclusions: This study identified novel genetic susceptibility loci for EAC and BE using an eQTL set-based genetic association approach.Impact: This study expanded the pool of genetic susceptibility loci for EAC and BE, suggesting the potential of the eQTL set-based genetic association approach as an alternative method for TWAS analysis.

Abstract

Previous Mendelian randomization (MR) studies on 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)D) and cancer have typically adopted a handful of variants and found no relationship between 25(OH)D and cancer; however, issues of horizontal pleiotropy cannot be reliably addressed. Using a larger set of variants associated with 25(OH)D (74 SNPs, up from 6 previously), we perform a unified MR analysis to re-evaluate the relationship between 25(OH)D and ten cancers. Our findings are broadly consistent with previous MR studies indicating no relationship, apart from ovarian cancers (OR 0.89; 95% C.I: 0.82 to 0.96 per 1 SD change in 25(OH)D concentration) and basal cell carcinoma (OR 1.16; 95% C.I.: 1.04 to 1.28). However, after adjustment for pigmentation related variables in a multivariable MR framework, the BCC findings were attenuated. Here we report that lower 25(OH)D is unlikely to be a causal risk factor for most cancers, with our study providing more precise confidence intervals than previously possible.

Abstract

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and its precursor, Barrett's esophagus (BE), have uncovered significant genetic components of risk, but most heritability remains unexplained. Targeted assessment of genetic variation in biologically relevant pathways using novel analytical approaches may identify missed susceptibility signals. Central obesity, a key BE/EAC risk factor, is linked to systemic inflammation, altered hormonal signaling and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) axis dysfunction. Here, we assessed IGF-related genetic variation and risk of BE and EAC. Principal component analysis was employed to evaluate pathway-level and gene-level associations with BE/EAC, using genotypes for 270 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in or near 12 IGF-related genes, ascertained from 3295 BE cases, 2515 EAC cases and 3207 controls in the Barrett's and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Consortium (BEACON) GWAS. Gene-level signals were assessed using Multi-marker Analysis of GenoMic Annotation (MAGMA) and SNP summary statistics from BEACON and an expanded GWAS meta-analysis (6167 BE cases, 4112 EAC cases, 17 159 controls). Global variation in the IGF pathway was associated with risk of BE (P = 0.0015). Gene-level associations with BE were observed for GHR (growth hormone receptor; P = 0.00046, false discovery rate q = 0.0056) and IGF1R (IGF1 receptor; P = 0.0090, q = 0.0542). These gene-level signals remained significant at q < 0.1 when assessed using data from the largest available BE/EAC GWAS metaanalysis. No significant associations were observed for EAC. This study represents the most comprehensive evaluation to date of inherited genetic variation in the IGF pathway and BE/EAC risk, providing novel evidence that variation in two genes encoding cell-surface receptors, GHR and IGF1R, may influence risk of BE.

Abstract

Background: Over 20 susceptibility single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) have been identified for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) and its precursor, Barrett esophagus (BE), explaining a small portion of heritability. Methods: Using genetic data from 4,323 BE and 4,116 EAC patients aggregated by international consortia including the Barrett's and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Consortium (BEACON), we conducted a comprehensive transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) for BE/EAC, leveraging Genotype Tissue Expression (GTEx) gene-expression data from six tissue types of plausible relevance to EAC etiology: mucosa and muscularis from the esophagus, gastroesophageal (GE) junction, stomach, whole blood, and visceral adipose. Two analytical approaches were taken: standard TWAS using the predicted gene expression from local expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL), and set-based SKAT association using selected eQTLs that predict the gene expression. Results: Although the standard approach did not identify significant signals, the eQTL set-based approach identified eight novel associations, three of which were validated in independent external data (eQTL SNP sets for EXOC3, ZNF641, and HSP90AA1). Conclusions: This study identified novel genetic susceptibility loci for EAC and BE using an eQTL set-based genetic association approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Funder: The Swedish Esophageal Cancer Study was funded by grants (R01 CA57947-03) from the National Cancer Institute he California Tobacco Related Research Program (3RT-0122; and; 10RT-0251) Marit Peterson Fund for Melanoma Research. CIDR is supported by contract HHSN268200782096C, Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is caused by gastric acid entering the esophagus. GERD has high prevalence and is the major risk factor for Barrett’s esophagus (BE) and esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA). We conduct a large GERD GWAS meta-analysis (80,265 cases, 305,011 controls), identifying 25 independent genome-wide significant loci for GERD. Several of the implicated genes are existing or putative drug targets. Loci discovery is greatest with a broad GERD definition (including cases defined by self-report or medication data). Further, 91% of the GERD risk-increasing alleles also increase BE and/or EA risk, greatly expanding gene discovery for these traits. Our results map genes for GERD and related traits and uncover potential new drug targets for these conditions.

Abstract

Researchers have investigated the postnatal development of the leptin system in the rat in order to establish the stage of development at which the potential for energy balance regulation by leptin first arises. This involved taking white adipose tissue from rats aged between one day and 28 days. It was found that the leptin system is operational shortly after birth in the rat in terms of ob gene expression and leptin production.
