Background: Genetic variations among genes regulating neuronal function, neurotransmission and plasticity may contribute to varying risk of CACI. In order to fully elucidate the complex genetic structure underlying CACI, a GWAS meta-analysis was performed to identify genetic variants associated with CACI among ESBC patients. Methods: A GWAS meta-analysis of two independent cohorts totaling 266 chemotherapy-receiving ESBC patients (mean age: 51.0 ± 9.2 years; 80.8% Chinese) was performed. Patients’ self-perceived cognitive function was assessed using the validated FACT-Cog (v.3). Genome-wide genotyping was performed using the Illumina HumanOmniExpress-24 version 1.1 BeadChips kits. Each beadchip contains over 700,000 genetic markers. Covariates included in the meta-analysis were the first two dimensions of the multi-dimensional scaling. Results: After applying stringent quality control measures and removing four population outliers, data from 546,399 SNPs were available for 84 cases and 170 controls. In the meta-analysis, two SNPs (rs6443264 and rs4686371) exceeded the suggestive threshold of P< 1×10-5 (Table). Following adjustment for the first two MDS dimensions in the meta-analysis, both SNPs remained as top two SNPs with P< 1×10-4. Both rs6443264 and rs4686371 are located in chromosome 3p25 and lie in the intronic regions encoding OGG1 and ARPC4 genes, respectively. Alteration of the OGG1 gene could compromise the functions of downstream neuronal genes, and modification of the ARPC4 gene could affect the formation of the actin-related protein 2/3 complex and impair memory formation. Conclusions: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first GWAS meta-analysis to identify two loci, namely rs6443264 and rs4686371 that are suggestive of genome-wide association with CACI among Asian ESBC patients.
