Interactions of PVT1 and CASC11 on Prostate Cancer Risk in African Americans

©2019 American Association for Cancer Research..

BACKGROUND: African American (AA) men have a higher risk of developing prostate cancer than white men. SNPs are known to play an important role in developing prostate cancer. The impact of PVT1 and its neighborhood genes (CASC11 and MYC) on prostate cancer risk are getting more attention recently. The interactions among these three genes associated with prostate cancer risk are understudied, especially for AA men. The objective of this study is to investigate SNP-SNP interactions in the CASC11-MYC-PVT1 region associated with prostate cancer risk in AA men.

METHODS: We evaluated 205 SNPs using the 2,253 prostate cancer patients and 2,423 controls and applied multiphase (discovery-validation) design. In addition to SNP individual effects, SNP-SNP interactions were evaluated using the SNP Interaction Pattern Identifier, which assesses 45 patterns.

RESULTS: Three SNPs (rs9642880, rs16902359, and rs12680047) and 79 SNP-SNP pairs were significantly associated with prostate cancer risk. These two SNPs (rs16902359 and rs9642880) in CASC11 interacted frequently with other SNPs with 56 and 9 pairs, respectively. We identified the novel interaction of CASC11-PVT1, which is the most common gene interaction (70%) in the top 79 pairs. Several top SNP interactions have a moderate to large effect size (OR, 0.27-0.68) and have a higher prediction power to prostate cancer risk than SNP individual effects.

CONCLUSIONS: Novel SNP-SNP interactions in the CASC11-MYC-PVT1 region have a larger impact than SNP individual effects on prostate cancer risk in AA men.

IMPACT: This gene-gene interaction between CASC11 and PVT1 can provide valuable information to reveal potential biological mechanisms of prostate cancer development.
