2月13日,发表在《临床肿瘤学杂志》(Journal of Clinical Oncology)上的一项前瞻性研究显示,一种遗传性疾病——林奇综合征患者易患多种类型癌症,尤其是乳腺癌和胰腺癌风险均显著增加。
林奇综合征是一种常染色体显性遗传病,约占所有结直肠癌的5%~15%,既可见于癌症患者,也可见于尚无癌症者。该综合征定义为由错配修复(MMR)基因突变引起的对结直肠癌及某些其他癌症(如子宫内膜癌、胃癌)的遗传易感性。这些MMR基因突变以常染色体显性方式遗传,主要包括MLH1、MSH2、MSH6及PMS2基因突变,前二者较多见。
在化验血液时发现的这种常染色体显性遗传疾病是由4个DNA错配修复(MMR)基因(MLH1、MSH2、MSH6或PMS2)中的一个突变引起的。估计人群中携带频率为1/360~1/3,010,数值取决于计算中纳入所有4个特异性突变,还是纳入少于4个特异性突变。已知这种综合征可使多种类型癌症的风险增高,包括结肠癌。通常建议患者在较低年龄开始进行结肠镜检查,并以较一般人群更高的频率重复检查。但无突变的家庭成员无癌症风险增高,也不需要进行较一般人群更密集的筛查,原因尚未完全阐明。
研究者对1997-2010年间结肠癌家庭注册数据库中的446例突变携带者和1,029非携带者亲属进行了随访。几乎所有研究受试者(96%)为白人,女性比例略高于一半。入选时,不同亚组的平均年龄介于40~50岁之间。注册数据库包括来自美国、加拿大、澳大利亚和新西兰的受试者。
结果显示,经过中位数为5年的随访发现,突变携带者结肠癌、子宫内膜癌、卵巢癌、肾癌、胃癌和膀胱癌的风险分别为一般人群的20、31、19、11和10倍。乳腺癌和胰腺癌的风险分别增加了4倍和11倍。对于每种癌症类型,突变携带者的风险增加均具有高度统计学意义,P值介于0.009~<0.001之间。另外,林奇综合征患者通常在较一般人群更低的年龄被诊断出癌症(J. Clin. Oncol)。
研究者认为,对于MMR基因突变携带者的某些特殊部位癌症风险,应进行恰当的临床管理,如筛查性结肠镜检、预防性全子宫切除和双侧输卵管卵巢切除可能降低结直肠癌、子宫内膜癌和卵巢癌风险。

Purpose To determine whether cancer risks for carriers and noncarriers from families with a mismatch repair (MMR) gene mutation are increased above the risks of the general population.
Patients and Methods We prospectively followed a cohort of 446 unaffected carriers of an MMR gene mutation (MLH1, n = 161; MSH2, n = 222; MSH6, n = 47; and PMS2, n = 16) and 1,029 their unaffected relatives who did not carry a mutation every 5 years at recruitment centers of the Colon Cancer Family Registry. For comparison of cancer risk with the general population, we estimated country-, age-, and sex-specific standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) of cancer for carriers and noncarriers.
Results Over a median follow-up of 5 years, mutation carriers had an increased risk of colorectal cancer (CRC; SIR, 20.48; 95% CI, 11.71 to 33.27; P < .001), endometrial cancer (SIR, 30.62; 95% CI, 11.24 to 66.64; P < .001), ovarian cancer (SIR, 18.81; 95% CI, 3.88 to 54.95; P < .001), renal cancer (SIR, 11.22; 95% CI, 2.31 to 32.79; P < .001), pancreatic cancer (SIR, 10.68; 95% CI, 2.68 to 47.70; P = .001), gastric cancer (SIR, 9.78; 95% CI, 1.18 to 35.30; P = .009), urinary bladder cancer (SIR, 9.51; 95% CI, 1.15 to 34.37; P = .009), and female breast cancer (SIR, 3.95; 95% CI, 1.59 to 8.13; P = .001). We found no evidence of their noncarrier relatives having an increased risk of any cancer, including CRC (SIR, 1.02; 95% CI, 0.33 to 2.39; P = .97).
Conclusion We confirmed that carriers of an MMR gene mutation were at increased risk of a wide variety of cancers, including some cancers not previously recognized as being a result of MMR mutations, and found no evidence of an increased risk of cancer for their noncarrier relatives.
