Project description:We used machine-learning algorithms to identify a hypoxia-associated methylation signature in patients with HPV negative HNSCC in the TCGA-HNSCC cohort. This current submission forms the basis of the independent validation cohort used to test the Hypoxia-M classifier in our study.

Project description:The risk of locoregional or distant failure in advanced HPV-negative head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients is high. However, no suitable markers for stratification are clinically available. Thus, we aimed to identify a microRNA(miRNA)-signature predicting disease recurrence. For this purpose the miRNA profiles from 162 HNSCC samples were analysed with regard to identification of a low-complex porgnostic signature. The data set consists of a discovery dataset (n=85) and a validation dataset (n=77). The study resulted in a prognostic 5-miRNA signature significantly predicting the relevant clinical endpoint freedom from recurrence.

Project description:Human Papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been recently linked to a subset of cancers affecting the oral cavity. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying HPV-driven oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) onset and/ progression are poorly understood. Methods: We perform a MS-based proteomic profiling based on HPV status on OSCC in young patients, following biological characterization and cell assays to explore the proteome functional landscape. Results: Thirty-nine proteins are differentially abundant between HPV (+) and HPV (-) OSCC. Among them, COPS3, DYHC1, and S100A8 are unfavorable for tumor recurrence and survival in contrast to A2M and Serpine1, which low levels show association with better DFS. Remarkably, S100A8 is considered an independent prognostic factor for lower survival rate, and at high levels, it alters tumor-associated immune profiling, showing a lower proportion of M1 macrophages and dendritic cells. HPV (+) OSCC also displayed the pathogen-associated patterns receptor which, when activated, triggered S100A8 and NFκB inflammatory responses. Conclusion: HPV (+) OSCC has a peculiar microenvironment pattern, distinctively of HPV (-), involving expression of pathogen-associated pattern receptors, S100A8 overexpression, and NFκB activation and responses that had important consequences in prognosis and may guide therapeutic decisions.

Project description:Esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) is among the most common malignancies, but little is known about the spatial intratumor heterogeneity (ITH) and the temporal clonal evolutionary processes in this cancer. Interestingly, the epigenetic profiling also showed strong evidence of spatial ITH, and the phyloepigenetic trees were extremely similar with the phylogenetic ones, indicating the interplay and co-dependency of genetic and epigenetic alterations in ESCC. We found that several genes were both mutated and hypermethylated at their promoters, such as ASXL1 and EPHA7. Our integrated investigations of the spatial ITH and the temporal clonal evolution might provide insights into developing biomarkers for early diagnosis of ESCC, as well as personalized therapeutic targets for treating this malignancy. DNA methylation profiles of 12 tumor regions and 2 matched normal esophageal epithelial tissues from three M-WES-examined ESCC cases (ESCC01, ESCC03 and ESCC05) were performed using Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450K platform (Illumina, San Diego, CA) at the Epigenome Center of University of Southern California.

Project description:Background: Schizophrenia is a severe neuropsychiatric disorder that is hypothesized to result from disturbances in early brain development, and there is mounting evidence to support a role for developmentally-regulated epigenetic variation in the molecular etiology of the disorder. Here, we describe a systematic study of schizophrenia-associated methylomic variation in the adult brain and its relationship to changes in DNA methylation across human fetal brain development. Results: We profile methylomic variation in matched prefrontal cortex and cerebellum brain tissue from schizophrenia patients and controls, identifying disease-associated differential DNA methylation at multiple loci, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, and confirming these differences in an independent set of adult brain samples. Our data reveal discrete modules of co-methylated loci associated with schizophrenia that are enriched for genes involved in neurodevelopmental processes and include loci implicated by genetic studies of the disorder. Methylomic data from human fetal cortex samples, spanning 23 to 184 days post-conception, indicates that disease-associated differentially methylated positions are significantly enriched for loci at which DNA methylation is dynamically altered during human fetal brain development. Conclusions: Our data support the hypothesis that schizophrenia has an important early neurodevelopmental component, and suggest that epigenetic mechanisms may mediate these effects. 33 post-mortem brain (prefrontal cortex) samples (18 schizophrenia cases and 15 controls) were obtained from Douglas Bell-Canada Brain Bank (DBCBB), Montreal, Canada. Bisulfite converted DNA from these samples were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip v1.0.

Project description:Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disorder that is characterized by progressive neuropathology and cognitive decline. We performed a cross-tissue analysis of methylomic variation in AD using samples from three independent human post-mortem brain cohorts. We identified a differentially methylated region in the ankyrin 1 (ANK1) gene that was associated with neuropathology in the entorhinal cortex, a primary site of AD manifestation. This region was confirmed as being substantially hypermethylated in two other cortical regions (superior temporal gyrus and prefrontal cortex), but not in the cerebellum, a region largely protected from neurodegeneration in AD, or whole blood obtained pre-mortem from the same individuals. Neuropathology-associated ANK1 hypermethylation was subsequently confirmed in cortical samples from three independent brain cohorts. This study represents, to the best of our knowledge, the first epigenome-wide association study of AD employing a sequential replication design across multiple tissues and highlights the power of this approach for identifying methylomic variation associated with complex disease. For the first (discovery) stage of our analysis, we used multiple tissues from donors (N = 122) archived in the MRC London Brainbank for Neurodegenerative Disease. From each donor, we isolated genomic DNA from four brain regions (EC, superior temporal gyrus (STG), prefrontal cortex (PFC) and CER) and, where available, from whole blood obtained pre-mortem. Our analyses focused on identifying differentially methylated positions (DMPs) associated with Braak staging, a standardized measure of neurofibrillary tangle burden determined at autopsy.

Prefrontal cortex (PFC) and cerebellum samples were obtained from 46 brains archived in the London Brain Bank for Neurodegenerative Disorders (LBBND). Of these 22 were schizophrenia cases, ands of the cases 12 were male.
