Title: | Synergism of Adipocytokine Profile and ADIPOQ/TNF-α Polymorphisms in NAFLD-associated MetS Predict Colorectal Liver Metastases Outgrowth. |
Abstract: | BACKGROUND/AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate whether the altered profile of adipocytokine and genetic fingerprint in NAFLD-associated metabolic syndrome "cluster" represents synergistic risk factors predicting onset of liver colorectal cancer metastases. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 165 colorectal cancer patients were enrolled, 56,3% were with metabolic syndrome/NAFLD. Serum samples were assayed for ADIPOQ, leptin and TNF-a levels by ELISA. ADIPOQ rs266729 C/G and TNF-308 A/G genotypes were analyzed in DNA isolated from whole blood. RESULTS: Reduction in adiponectin levels and increase in leptin and TNF-α was shown in patients with liver metastases. This trend was influenced by BMI, MetS/NAFLD, and insulin resistance. ADIPOQ G rs266729 and TNF- 308 A allele are associated with obesity, MetS/NAFLD and insulin resistance. ADIPOQ CG/GG and GA/AA TNF-alpha genotypes confer susceptibility to liver metastases. CONCLUSION: Obesity and hepatic steatosis significantly favor the development of colorectal cancer liver metastases and the individual adipocytokines genetic profile may play an important predictive role. |
