Metabolic Signature of Healthy Lifestyle and HCC
Metabolic Signature of Healthy Lifestyle and Its Relationship With Risk of Hepatocellular Carcinoma in a Large European Cohort

Detailed Description
Studies using metabolomic data have identified metabolites from several compound classes that are associated with disease-related lifestyle factors. This study identified metabolic signatures reflecting lifestyle patterns and related them to hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) risk in the EPIC cohort. Partial Least Squares (PLS) analysis related seven modified Healthy Lifestyle Index variables (diet, BMI, physical activity, lifetime alcohol, smoking, diabetes, hepatitis) to 132 targeted serum-measured metabolites, and a liver function score in a nested study of HCC with 147 case-control pairs. The association between the resulting PLS scores and HCC risk was examined in multivariable conditional logistic regression models where odds ratios (OR) and their 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) were computed. The PLS-derived lifestyle component reflected a high propensity towards healthy behaviours. Its metabolic counterpart was positively related to the following metabolites: SM(OH) C14:1, C16:1 and C22:2, and negatively to glutamate, hexoses, and PC aaC32:1. The lifestyle and metabolomics components were inversely associated with HCC risk with OR for a 1-SD increase in scores equal to 0.49(95%CI=0.35 to 0.68) and 0.28(0.18 to 0.43).
Measuring a specific metabolites panel may identify strata of the population at higher risk for HCC and can add substantial discrimination compared to questionnaire data

Study Population
Over 520,000 healthy men and women aged 25-85 were enrolled between 1992 and 2000 across 23 EPIC administrative centres in 10 European countries including Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom.
This analysis focused on a nested case-control study of 147 cases of HCC and 147 matched controls with available biological samples.
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- Aged 30-70
- Healthy volunteers residing within defined geographical areas (where study centers are located). Different settings by centre; mostly general population with some exceptions: women of a health insurance company for teachers and school workers (France), women attending breast cancer screening (Utrecht-The Netherlands, and Florence-Italy), mainly blood donors (most centers in Italy and Spain) and a cohort consisting predominantly of vegetarians (the 'health-conscious' group in Oxford, UK)

Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Time Frame: Follow-up started at date of entry to the study and finished at date of diagnosis, death or last completed follow-up (from December 2004 up to June 2010). Cancer incidence was determined through population cancer registries or through active follow-up.
|
Incident HCC cases were defined as first primary invasive tumours and identified through the 10th Revision of International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injury and Causes of Death (ICD10) as C22.0 with morphology codes ICD-O-2 "8170/3"and "8180/3"
