Relationship between head and neck cancer therapy and some genetic endpoints

Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the sixth most common human malignancy worldwide. The main forms of treatment for HNC are surgery, radiotherapy (RT) and chemotherapy (CT). However, the choice of therapy depends on the tumor staging and approaches, which are aimed at organ preservation. Because of systemic RT and CT genotoxicity, one of the important side effects is a secondary cancer that can result from the activity of radiation and antineoplastic drugs on healthy cells. Ionizing radiation can affect the DNA, causing single and double-strand breaks, DNA-protein crosslinks and oxidative damage. The severity of radiotoxicity can be directly associated with the radiation dosimetry and the dose-volume differences. Regarding CT, cisplatin is still the standard protocol for the treatment of squamous cell carcinoma, the most common cancer located in the oral cavity. However, simultaneous treatment with cisplatin, bleomycin and 5-fluorouracil or treatment with paclitaxel and cisplatin are also used. These drugs can interact with the DNA, causing DNA crosslinks, double and single-strand breaks and changes in gene expression. Currently, the late effects of therapy have become a recurring problem, mainly due to the increased survival of HNC patients. Herein, we present an update of the systemic activity of RT and CT for HNC, with a focus on their toxicogenetic and toxicogenomic effects.

Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Markers in Aedes aegypti Populations in Brazil

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were investigated in eighteen genes of sixteen populations of Aedes aegypti in Brazil. Eight SNP markers were selected in nine genes and surveyed in A. aegypti populations of three localities in different geographical locations. SNPs revealed significant genetic differentiation among populations recently analyzed by mitochondria DNA (mtDNA) and represented by a single genetic group (lineage). Results suggest that a haplotype derived from mtDNA analysis could be represented by different Aedes lineages revealed by SNP characterization. Genetic distances (pairwise F(ST)), AMOVA and cluster analyses indicated a high genetic structure for the A. aegypti populations investigated by SNPs. This set of SNP markers represents a useful tool for genetic studies in A. aegypti populations
