This PhD thesis investigated pharmacogenetics of microRNAs and immune system genes in locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients treated with neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy. In 265 LARC patients, five SNPs were identified as predictive biomarkers of pathological response: DROSHA-rs10719 (OR=1.87, p=0.0274) and SMAD3-rs17228212 (OR=2.01, p=0.0049) were unfavorable, while SMAD3-rs744910 (OR=0.45, p=0.0153), SMAD3-rs745103 (OR=0.48, p=0.0471), and TRBP-rs6088619 (OR=0.39, p=0.0125) were protective. In 235 LARC patients, three prognostic biomarkers for 2-year disease-free survival were identified: IL17F-rs641701 (HR=3.23, p=0.003), IL17F-rs9463772 (HR=2.89, p=0.002), and STAT3-rs8069645 (HR=0.50, p=0.044).
About TGFBR2
The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane protein that has a protein kinase domain, forms a heterodimeric complex with TGF-beta receptor type-1, and binds TGF-beta. This receptor/ligand complex phosphorylates proteins, which then enter the nucleus and regulate the transcription of genes related to cell proliferation, cell cycle arrest, wound healing, immunosuppression, and tumorigenesis. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Marfan Syndrome, Loeys-Deitz Aortic Aneurysm Syndrome, and the development of various types of tumors. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2017]
