Project description:Most of the breast cancer samples used in clinical research contain multiple cell types other than epithelial cells alone. The non-epithelial cell types have have a substantial effect on the gene expression-profile, which is used to define molecular subtypes of the tumours. The purpose of this data set is to retrieve gene-expression profile within tumour epithelial cells. We collected 9 breast cancer epithelial cell lines and 5 tumour sampes from which epithelial cells were sorted and enriched using BerEp4 antibody coated beads. We profiled the mRNA expression level of these samples and classified probe sets into epithelial genes which were those genes with present calls in at least 50% of the samples. Then we derived an 23-gene signature based on only the epithelial genes to stratify breast cancer.

Project description:Breast cancer is a molecularly, biologically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders. Understanding this diversity is essential to improving diagnosis and optimising treatment. Both genetic and acquired epigenetic abnormalities participate in cancer, but information is scant on the involvement of the epigenome in breast cancer and its contribution to the complexity of the disease. Here we used the Infinium Methylation Platform to profile at single-CpG resolution (over 14,000 genes interrogated) the methylomes of 119 breast tumours. It emerges that many genes whose expression is linked to the ER status are epigenetically controlled (or/ we show that the two major phenotypes of breast cancers determined by ER status are widely involving epigenetic regulatory mechanisms), offering the prospect of a novel approach to treating ER-positive tumours. We have distinguished methylation-profile-based tumour clusters, some coinciding with known “expression subtypes” but also new entities that may provide a meaningful basis for refining breast tumour typology. We show that methylation patterns may reflect the cellular origins of tumours. Having highlighted an unexpectedly strong epigenetic component in the regulation of key immune pathways, we show that a set of immune genes have high prognostic value in specific tumour categories. By laying the ground for better understanding of breast cancer heterogeneity and improved tumour taxonomy, the precise epigenetic portraits drawn here should contribute to better management of breast cancer patients. 92 bgene expression profiling reast cancer patients. Study of epigenetic variation (methylation) linked to gene expression. No replicate, no reference sample. Two samples (Breast tumor from patient P_64 and Normal breast tissue N6) were of poor quality and were not processed for a final of 90 gene expression Samples.

Project description:This is a genomic analysis of breast cancer metastasis using array based CGH and is part of a large study investigating the patterns and evolution of metastases from breast cancer using autopsy material accumulated over the last 50 years from a single institution. The samples used in the genomic profiling comprise the primary breast tumour and multiple matched metastases from each patient. The data demonstrate both the clonal nature of metastatic progression and the role of clonal evolution during progression. This study comprises six patients who died of metastatic breast cancer. For some patients the breast primary tumour and lymph node metastasis was obtained from previous surgical excision, otherwise material was obtained from a resulting autopsy. Each patient set of samples involves the primary breast tumour and multiple metastases, including from lung, liver, lymph node, adrenal gland, brain etc. DNA was extracted from formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks and analysed for DNA copy number alterations using an Agilent aCGH platform.

Project description:Background: Recently a 76-gene prognostic signature able to predict distant metastases in lymph node-negative (N-) breast cancer patients was reported. The aims of this study conducted by TRANSBIG were to independently validate these results and to compare the outcome with clinical risk assessment. Materials and Methods: Gene expression profiling of frozen samples from 198 N- systemically untreated patients was performed at the Bordet Institute, blinded to clinical data and independent of Veridex. Genomic risk was defined by Veridex, blinded to clinical data. Survival analyses, done by an independent statistician, were performed with the genomic risk and adjusted for the clinical risk, defined by Adjuvant!Online. Results: The actual 5- and 10-year time to distant metastasis (TDM) were 98% (88%-100%) and 94% (83%-98%) respectively for the good profile group and 76% (68%- 82%) and 73% (65%-79%) for the poor profile group. The actual 5- and 10-year overall survival (OS) were 98% (88%-100%) and 87% (73%-94%) respectively for the good profile group and 84% (77%-89%) and 72% (63%-78%) for the poor profile group. We observed a strong time-dependency of this signature, leading to an adjusted HR of 13.58 (1.85-99.63) and 8.20 (1.10-60.90) at 5 years, and 5.11 (1.57-16.67) and 2.55 (1.07-6.10) at 10 years for TDM and OS respectively. Conclusion: This independent validation confirmed the performance of the 76-gene signature and adds to the growing evidence that gene expression signatures are of clinical relevance, especially for identifying patients at high risk of early distant metastases. Experiment Overall Design: dataset of microarray experiments from primary breast tumors used to validate the 76-gene signature (VERIDEX). No replicate, no reference sample.

Project description:Tumour buds undergo phenotype switching while detaching from the main tumour, as they acquire more migratory characteristics and tend to stop proliferating. Simultaneously, an EMT-like signature is observed in the tumour buds under the form of active WNT, TGF and receptor tyrosine kinase signalling. In addition, FOXA2 and RUNX2 well known transcription factors in other cancer types were also differentially expressed in the buds compared to the main tumour mass, hinting at the potential role in tumour budding and initiation of metastasis in colorectal cancer.

Project description:Using array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH), a large number of deleted genomic regions have been identified in human cancers. However, subsequent efforts to identify target genes selected for inactivation in these regions have often been challenging. We integrated here genome-wide copy number data with gene expression data and non-sense mediated mRNA decay rates in breast cancer cell lines to prioritize gene candidates that are likely to be tumour suppressor genes inactivated by bi-allelic genetic events. The candidates were sequenced to identify potential mutations. This integrated genomic approach led to the identification of RIC8A at 11p15 as a putative candidate target gene for the genomic deletion in the ZR-75-1 breast cancer cell line. We identified a truncating mutation in this cell line, leading to loss of expression and rapid decay of the transcript. We screened 127 breast cancers for RIC8A mutations, but did not find any pathogenic mutations. No promoter hypermethylation in these tumours was detected either. However, analysis of gene expression data from breast tumours identified a small group of aggressive tumours that displayed low levels of RIC8A transcripts. Real-time PCR analysis of 38 breast tumours showed a strong association between low RIC8A expression and the presence of TP53 mutations (P=0.006). We demonstrate a data integration strategy leading to the identification of RIC8A as a gene undergoing a classical double-hit genetic inactivation in a breast cancer cell line, as well as in vivo evidence of loss of RIC8A expression in a subgroup of aggressive TP53 mutant breast cancers. Gene expression data: Samples GSM388181-GSM388198. The experiment utilized six breast cancer cell lines: MDA-MB-468, MDA-MB-231, ZR-75-1, MCF7, BT-474 and T-47D, and three non-malignant cell lines: HMECs (non-malignant human mammary epithelial cells), IMR90 (normal lung fibroblasts) and WS1 (normal skin fibroblasts). All cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection and grown in accordance with the distributor's instructions. Both malignant and non-malignant cell lines were treated with the translation inhibitor emetine dihydrochloride hydrate. For each cell line, parallel cell cultures were grown in 175 cm2 flasks until 70-80 % confluence. Half of the subconfluent cultures were treated with 100 μg ml-1 of emetine dihydrochloride hydrate while the other half were left as untreated controls. Genome-wide copy number data: Samples GSM388211-GSM388216. The experiment utilized six breast cancer cell lines; MDA-MB-468, MDA-MB-231, ZR-75-1, MCF7, BT-474 and T-47D. All cell lines were obtained from American Type Culture Collection and grown in accordance with the distributor's instructions. All samples were hybridized once on 44k Agilent Human Genome CGH microarrays according to manufacturers instructions. Genomic DNA pooled from healthy female donors was used as a reference in all hybridizations. DNA from cell line samples were labeled with Cy5 and DNA from reference were labeled with Cy3.

Project description:SWATH-MS enables accurate and reproducible label-free quantification of proteomes including in extensively studied model organisms such as the mouse. Here we present a comprehensive mouse reference spectral library (MouseRefSWATH) that allows quantification of up to 10,597 proteins (62.2% of mouse proteome) by SWATH-MS. We exploit MouseRefSWATH to develop an analytical pipeline for species-specific deconvolution of proteomic alterations in human tumour xenografts (XenoSWATH). This method overcomes the challenge of high protein sequence similarity between the mouse and human, facilitating the study of host microenvironment-tumour interactions from ‘bulk tumour’ measurements. We apply XenoSWATH to characterise a xenograft model of breast ductal carcinoma in-situ and uncover complex regulation of cell migration pathways that is not restricted to the tumour cells but also operates in the mouse stromal upon progression to invasive disease. MouseRefSWATH and XenoSWATH opens new possibilities for in-depth proteomic assessment to address wide-ranging biological questions involving this important model organism.

Project description:PURPOSE: Validated biomarkers predictive of response/resistance to anthracyclines in breast cancer are currently lacking. The neoadjuvant TOP trial, in which patients with estrogen receptor (ER)-negative tumors were treated with anthracycline (epirubicin) monotherapy, was specifically designed to evaluate the predictive value of topoisomerase IIα (TOP2A) and to develop a gene expression signature to identify those patients who do not benefit from anthracyclines. METHODS: The TOP trial included 149 patients, of which 141 were evaluable for response prediction analyses. The primary endpoint was pathological complete response (pCR). TOP2A and gene expression profiles were evaluated using pre-epirubicin biopsies. Gene expression data from ER-negative samples of the EORTC 10994/BIG 00-01 and MDACC 2003-0321 neoadjuvant trials were used for validation purposes. RESULTS: A pCR was obtained in 14% of the evaluable TOP patients. TOP2A amplification, but not protein overexpression, was significantly associated with pCR (p=0.001 and 0.22). We developed an “anthracycline-based score (A-Score)” that combines three signatures: a TOP2A gene signature and two previously published signatures related to tumor invasion and immune response. The A-Score was characterized by a high negative predictive value (NPV=0.98 [95% CI: 0.90-1.00]) overall, and in the HER2-negative and HER2-positive subpopulations. Its performance was independently confirmed in the anthracycline-based (FAC/FEC) arms of the two validation trials (BIG 00-01: 0.80 [0.61-0.92] and MDACC 2003-0321: 1.00 [0.80-1.00]). CONCLUSION: Given its high NPV, the A-Score could become, if further validated, a useful clinical tool to identify those patients who do not benefit from anthracyclines and could therefore be spared the non-negligible side effects. Predicting the efficacy of anthracyclines (epirubicin) in breast cancer (BC) patients (TOP trial) 120 microarray experiments from primary ER-negative breast tumors of anthracycline-treated patients. No replicate, no reference sample.
