Review of Literature exposures including environmental factors could contribute to the development of UADT MPN. 2.5 Single nucleotide polymorphism and genetic susceptibility to UADT MPN Presently much emphasis has been laid on understanding effect of gene polymorphisms in terms of their associations with risk of various cancers. The genetic component influencing susceptibility to cancer includes gene falling mainly in important carcinogenesis pathways of DNA repair, carcinogen metabolism, cell cycle regulation and cell death control. Variation in any of these mechanisms may result in accumulation of cell with genetic alteration in critical genes leading to tumourigenesis 9 . So far no single gene mutation/ variation has been attributed to be the cause of UADT MPN. Hence cumulative effects of low penetrance genes are likely to contribute susceptibility to such cancers. Evidences from various studies analyzing cumulative polymorphisms suggest aberrant gene-environment interactions to be an important etiological factor in carcinogenesis. A large number of case control studies have attempted to establish the role of polymorphisms in critical regulatory pathway genes with susceptibility to development of second primary tumours 7, 12, 40-44 . Studies from our own group describe the involvement of single nucleotide polymorphisms and genetic susceptibility in etiology of UADT MPN in Indian population. In studies done by Jhavar et al., GSTM1 and GSTT1 gene null genotype has been found to confer risk for developing UADT MPN in Indian males using tobacco and females with paired occurrence of cancers in UADT and genital region 7, 45 . In another case-control study and meta-analysis of SULT1A1 Arg 213 His polymorphism from our group, UADT MPN patients showed significant risk association with SULT1A1 gene polymorphism 12 . As risk assessment for cancer risk is moving toward a multigenic pathway-based approach in a recent report from our lab in an attempt to understand collective effect of a panel of SNPs, an association of polymorphisms in genes falling in major carcinogenesis pathways was observed in MPN patients with tobacco habit 40 . These studies emphasise the role of genetic predisposition in UADT MPN and importance of undertaking studies evaluating a cumulative effect of panel of important gene SNPs. 34
Review of Literature 2.6 Genotype phenotype correlation studies Since last few decades a number of studies have reported association of gene polymorphisms with cancer risk. However the real implication of these gene polymorphisms with increased cancer risk can only be interpreted if they have any functional significance. Therefore undertaking genotype-phenotype correlation studies is extremely important to understand the functional significance of the gene polymorphisms. Numerous studies have been conducted during last one decade to evaluate the functional significance of gene polymorphisms in normal individuals 46-48 . This approach of understanding effect of gene polymorphisms at functional level has been phenomenal and has been applied to deduce the functional significance of genetic predisposition in cancer risk 49-52 . One of such reports describes alteration in the apoptotic capacity to be a risk factor for lung cancer development and the risk was observed to be modulated by the Fas -A 670 G polymorphism 51 . Similarly, variations in p53 gene have been associated with apoptosis and DNA repair and in turn with lung cancer risk 53 . On the contrary XPA gene polymorphism, a DNA binding protein in the nucleotide excision repair pathway, has been observed to modulate repair capacity and is associated with decreased lung cancer risk, especially in the presence of exposure to tobacco carcinogens 52 . Other than lung cancer, analogous reports are available for breast cancer also where polymorphisms in nucleotide excision repair genes and DNA repair capacity phenotype has been with breast cancer risk 54, 55 . In another report by Minard et al. evaluation of glutathione S-transferase polymorphisms and mutagen sensitivity as risk factors for the development of second primary tumours in 303 patients previously diagnosed with early-stage head and neck cancer has been done 49 . These studies demonstrate the functional significance of genetic variation in different individuals and then their probable implication on various phenotypes and eventually cancer risk, hence emphasizing the importance of undertaking genotype-phenotype correlation studies in understanding UADT MPN pathogenesis. 2.7 Model system: Epstein Barr virus transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines In order to understand the etiology of UADT MPN there is a need to undertake genotype phenotype correlation studies. However, one of the prime requisites for performing long term genotype-phenotype correlation studies is the continuous supply of starting parent material. This can be overcome to some extent by establishing 35
