Colorectal Cancer and Genetic
Polymorphism in Key Regulatory Low
Penetrance Genes

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the major solid tissue malignancies affecting
the worldwide population. CRC is the third most common cancer and fourth
among the major contributors of cancer-related mortality worldwide. CRC inci-
dence rate exhibits a considerable variation with geographical location and with
race and ethnicity. The variation in CRC incidence with geographical location is
so conspicuous that CRC is regarded as the marker of the socioeconomic devel-
opment of nations. The role played by the genetic variants especially SNPs in
modulating the risk of CRC is of very diverse nature. In this chapter, we would be
discussing the effects of SNPs in the low penetrance genes depending upon the
type of pathways these genes are involved in. Numerous pathways, which are
known to get affected by genetic variations, can be categorized as: cell cycle
regulatory, transcription regulatory, DNA repair, folate metabolism, fat metabo-
lism, xenobiotic and inflammatory pathways.

5.1 Introduction
Colorectal cancer (CRC) encompasses the cancers of colon, rectum, and appendix.
CRC affects both the genders considerably, is one of the most common cancers
worldwide, and represents nearly 10% of all the cancer cases diagnosed and cancer-
related deaths reported, annually (Dekker et al. 2019; Kuipers et al. 2015).

5.1.1 Epidemiology
5.1.1.1 Etiology
The emergence of colorectal tumors is multifarious and varies from benign growths
to belligerently invasive tumors. As with origin, presentation is also varied and
ranges from non-neoplastic polyps to neoplastic polyps (adenomatous polyps,
adenomas) or to full-blown cancers. Most of the colorectal tumors (almost 95%)
are adenomas (benign form) or adenocarcinomas (malignant form), which originate
from epithelium derived intestinal glands. Colorectal tumors may also arise as
carcinoid tumors, whi ch are derived from gastr ointestinal neuroendocrine cells,
mostly in the small intestine and appendix and only occasionally in the rectum.
The other colorectal tumor types include gastrointestinal stromal tumors, which
originate from gastrointestinal tract (GIT) resident interstitial cell of Cajal (ICC)
and lymphomas, which are predominantly derived from lymphatic syst em but may
rarely arise or develop in the colon and rectum as colorectal lymphomas (O’Brien
et al. 2004; Zauber et al. 2002).
Colorectal tumors are multifarious in their etiology also and may be sporadic,
inherited, or familial in their origin and occurrence (Fig. 5.1). Sporadic CRC, as the
name indicates, occurs randomly without any manifestation of being or having an
association with an inherited disorder. Sporadic CRC results from somatic (point)
gene mutations that arise due to or are associated with normal aging, exposure to
environmental factors and lifestyle including dietary habits, acting alone or in a
cumulative manner (Dekker et al. 2019; Sameer 2013a). Multiple and diverse genes
may be targeted by these mutations, which forms the basis of complex heteroge-
neous nature of this disease especially with regard to molecular pathogenesis.
However, in most cases of sporadic CRC, about 70%, a specific set of genes undergo
mutations in a specific progression and manifest initially as benign to precancerous
morphological changes, which gradually develop into cancer. The mutations
Fig. 5.1 Etiological types of CRC and penetrance pattern of genes involved
122 M. Z. Banday et al.
https://t.me/medicina_free
responsible for sporadic CRC may arise in low penetrance genes or may be
low-penetrance mutated variants of high-penetrance genes. Sporadic CRC
represents 70–75% of all the cases of colorectal cancer and usually occurs in
individuals aged more than 50 years (Mármol et al. 2017).
Inherited (hereditary) CRC represents such cases of colorectal cancer, which arise
from or are associated with specific inherited disorders, which have well-defined
predisposition to CRC. These inherited disorders are usually associated with
inherited (germline) high-penetrance gene mutations in one of the two alleles of
the targeted gene and contribute to CRC predisposition through creation of a
scenario where somatic (point) mutations in the other allele of the targeted (mutated)
gene may trigger morphological changes, which may gradually manifest as colorec-
tal tumor. Further, these inherited disorders present clinically with either preponder-
ant polyposis (colonic polyps present) or preponderant non-polyposis (colonic
polyps absent) and colorectal cancers resulting from these disorders are known as
hereditary polyposis colorectal cancer (HPCC) and hereditary non-polyposis colo-
rectal cancer (HNPCC), respectively. About 5–10% of all the cases of CRC are
inherited colorectal tumors (Calvert and Frucht 2002; Power et al. 2010;Mármol
et al. 2017). The inherited disorders associated with CRC are of very rare occurrence
but exhibit a diverse clinico-pathological presentation, which allows an extensive
mechanistic understanding of almost all colorectal cancer types.
Hereditary polyposis disorders, which may result in hereditary polyposis colo-
rectal cancer (HPCC) can be grouped into two main types—adenomatous polyposis
syndromes (APS) and hamartomatous polyposis syndromes (HPS). Adenomatous
polyposis syndromes (APS) include familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP), Gardner
syndrome, Turcot syndrome type II, and attenuated forms of familial adenomatous
polyposis (Buecher 2016). Hamartomatous polyposis syndromes (HPS) include
familial juvenile polyposis syndrome or juvenile polyposis syndrome (FJPS/JPS),
PTEN hamartoma tumor syndro mes [Bannayan-Riley-Ruvalcaba syndrome
(BRRS), Cowden syndrome (CS), and Proteus Syndrome (PS)], Peutz-Jeghers
Syndrome (PJS), and hereditary mixed polyposis syndrome (HMPS, a variant
form of JPS characterized by the presence of both adenomatous and hamartomatous
polyps) (Daniel and Howe 2008; Jelsig et al. 2014). Hereditary polyposis colorectal
cancer (HPCC) represents 3–5% of all cases of colorectal cancer.
Hereditary non-polyposis disorders, which may result in hereditary
non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) include Lynch syndrome, Muir-Torre
syndrome (MTS), and Turcot syndrome type I. Lynch syndrome is the most com-
mon cause of HNPCC with 2–4% of all CRC cases attributed to it and hence is often
synonymously used with this type of colorectal cancer. HNPCC represents 1.7–4.2%
of all cases of colorectal cancer (Carethers and Stoffel 2015; Lee et al. 2017).
Familial CRC represents a heterogeneous group of colorectal cancers with largely
unknown molecular etiology and affects individuals with a family history of CRC
but without any apparent association with specific inherited disorders. Familial
incidence of CRC in such cases is too high to be classified as sporadic CRC and
as it does not follow Mendelian or any other specific genetic pattern of inheritance, it
cannot be classified as inherited CRC either. Familial CRC possibly results from

mutations in predisposition genes or may arise from exposures to common environ-
mental factors among the members of a family or both genetic and environmental
factors may act in combination. The predisposition genes, which undergo mutations
in familial CRC, may be lowly penetrant, moderatel y penetrant, or highly penetrant.
Familial CRC represents 20–25% of all the cases of colorectal cancer (Calvert and
Frucht 2002; Power et al. 2010; Armelao and de Pretis 2014; Stoffel and Kastrinos
2014).
5.1.1.2 Incidence, Mortality and Changing Trends
CRC ranks third amongst the most common cancers, after cancers of lung and breast
and fourth among the major contributors of cancer-related mortality, with about
900,000 deaths per year (Dekker et al. 2019; Bray et al. 2018; Ferlay et al. 2018a).
CRC ranks second amongst the most common cancers in women (~9.5% of all cases
of cancer) with breast cancer being the foremost common. It ranks third amongst the
most common cancers in men (`10.9% of all cases of cancer) with lung cancer being
the foremost common and prostate cancer being the second most common (Ferlay
et al. 2018b; Torre et al. 2017).
With regard to CRC incidence and CRC related mortality, 1.8 million new cases
of colorectal cancer (1,096,000 colon cancer cases and 704,000 rectal cancer cases)
and 881,000 deaths were reported worldwide in the year 2018. These numbers are
expected to increase to 2.5 million new CRC cases and 1.1 million deaths by the year
2035 (Dekker et al. 2019; Ferlay et al. 2018a). CRC incidence and CRC related
mortality in females is almost 25% lower than in males (Dekker et al. 2019). CRC
incidence expressed in terms of age-standardized (world) [ASR (world)] incidence
rates per 100,000 of population has been reported to be 23.6 for males and 16.3 for
females. Overall ASR (world) incidence and mortality rates per 100,000 of popula-
tion have been reported to be 19.7 and 8.9, respectively (Ferlay et al. 2018b).
CRC incidence rate exhibits a considerable variation with geographical location
and with race and ethnicity. The variation in CRC incidence with geographical
location is so conspicuous that CRC is regarded as the marker of the socioeconomic
development of nations. CRC incidence in developed nations has been reported to be
3–4 times more in comparison with developing nations and variations in incidence
up to 8 times for colon cancer and 6 times for rectal cancer have been reported across
different regions globally. Many countries where significant developmental progress
is taking place, as evident from increasing human development index (HDI), a
uniform increase in CRC incidence rates have been observed. The increase in
CRC incidence rates with increasing HDI has been attributed to increased life span
and change in environmental factors including such lifestyle and dietary habits,
which have been associated with increased risk of CRC (Arnold et al. 2017). ASR
(world) incidence rates per 100,000 of population for males and females in countries
with high-HDI are 30.1 and 20.9, respectively, and for males and females in
countries with low-HDI, these values are 8.4 and 5.9, respectively (Ferlay
et al. 2018b, Bray et al. 2018). CRC related mortality in developed nations has
been reported to be 2–3 times more in comparison with developing nations. ASR
mortality rate (ASRm) per 100,000 of population for males and females in countries
