Genome-wide gene expression profiles of clear cell renal cell carcinoma; Identification of molecular targets for treatment of renal cell carcinoma

ABSTRACT: In order to clarify the molecular mechanism involved in renal carcinogenesis, and identify molecular targets for diagnosis and treatment, we analyzed genome-wide gene expression profiles of 15 surgical specimens of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC), compared to normal renal cortex, using a combination of laser microbeam microdissection (LMM) with a cDNA microarray representing 27,648 genes. Tissue samples of surgically-resected clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and their corresponding clinical information were obtained from patients with written informed consent. The total of 15 cancer patients (6 women and 9 men; median age, 66; range, 36-75 years) that had been confirmed histologically as ccRCC were selected for this study. Two to three pieces of cancer tissue had been taken from each patient at the time of radical nephrectomy. Normal tissue had been obtained from the distant region from cancer area in the resected kidney tissue. These samples were immediately embedded in TissueTek OCT compound (Sakura, Tokyo, Japan), frozen, and stored at -80°C. The frozen tissues were sliced into 8-μm sections using a cryostat (Sakura) and then stained with H&E for histological examination. We used LMM technology to collect pure populations of ccRCC cells as well as non-cancerous renal cortex. A mixture of normal renal cortex cells in kidney tissues from 11 patients was prepared as a universal control. Experiments were performed using 6 sets of slides (slide set 1-6 corresponding to ID_REF 1-27648).

Project description:The significance of borderline changes (BL) in kidney allograft biopsies is widely debated. We examined differences in gene expression patterns between early clinical biopsy tissue and 3-month protocol biopsy tissue, all of which had histological BL changes and identified specific molecular BL patterns associated with poor graft outcome. The expression profiles were analyzed in training set of patients and next data were validated in validation cohort using RT-qPCR. Using the Illumina microarray technology, we observed greater expression of immunity- and inflammation-related genes in tissues from early clinical biopsies compared to 3-month protocol biopsies with BL findings. In tissues with early clinically manifested BL changes, graft deterioration within 24 months due to chronic rejection was associated with increased activation of immune, defense, and inflammatory processes, specifically with higher donor age and expression of macrophage receptor CLEC5A. In the 3-month protocol biopsies with BL changes, graft dysfunction was associated with increased expression of fibrinogen complex transcripts. This study highlights the molecular differences between clinical and subclinical biopsies with similar histological findings. The data also support a recommendation for frequent patient monitoring, especially in those who received grafts from expanded criteria donors (ECDs). The experiments were performed with total RNA derived from the renal graft biopsy samples of 28 different patients who had undergone a kidney transplantation. Only the patients with diagnosis of borderline changes early (M-bM-^IM-$2 months) or protocolar (3 months) were included in the study. RNA profiles of patients with stable and deteriorated graft function during 2 years after transplantation were compared. As microarray platform, Illumina HumanHT-12 v4.0 Expression BeadChips (Illumina) was used. The chip scanning was performed with a BeadStation 500 instrument (Illumina Inc), and the raw data were extracted with the BeadStudio Data Analysis Software (Illumina). The R software lumi package was used to further process the raw data. The quantile method was used for normalization.
