| Popis: | Background: Low global methylation levels measured in post-diagnostic case compared to healthy control blood DNA have been associated with elevated bladder cancer risk. Objective: To examine this association using blood DNA collected prior to bladder cancer diagnosis. Methods: Cases (n=437) and controls (N=847) were selected from the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, Ovarian Cancer Screening Trial (PLCO). A replication case-control study was conducted among males from the Alpha-Tocopherol, Beta-Carotene Cancer Prevention (ATBC) cohort (391 cases/778 controls). LINE-1 percent 5-methyl-cytosine (LINE-1 %5-MeC) levels were quantified using bisulfite treated blood DNA and pyrosequencing. Cancer risk was assessed in deciles (D1-D10: 10-100%) and quartiles (Q1-Q4:25-100%) of methylation levels based on controls. Logistic regression was used to evaluate individual and pooled study data. Findings: In PLCO, significantly lower bladder cancer risk was associated with the lowest LINE-1 %5-MeC decile (D1) compared to D2-D10 subjects adjusted for sex and pack-years of smoking (OR=0.35; 95% CI: 0.18-0.68, p=0.002). Findings were corroborated in the ATBC study, (D1 vs. D2-D10: OR=0.31;95% CI:0.17-0.57, p Interpretation: Findings observed in two independent studies using pre-diagnostically collected bladder cancer case/control subject DNA support that higher methylation levels may reflect higher bladder cancer risk prior to diagnosis. Associations using pre-diagnostically collected blood DNA were opposite to those from previous case-control studies using post-diagnostic DNA, suggesting changes in methylation levels associated with the carcinogenic process. Additional prospective studies evaluating LINE1 and gene-specific CpG methylation levels are needed to replicate and extend these findings. This proffered talk is also presented as Poster 11.
