DNA methylation profiling of human adrenocortical tumors (ACTs)


ABSTRACT: A Cartes d'Identite des Tumeurs (CIT) project from the french Ligue Nationale Contre le Cancer (http://cit.ligue-cancer.net) | Transcriptome analysis led to the unsupervised classification of carcinomas in two groups, associated with different outcomes {de Reynies, 2009 ; Giordano, 2009}. Subsequently, we have shown that unsupervised clustering further classified the tumors of the poor prognosis group in three different subgroups, two of them harbouring a cardinal molecular alteration {Ragazzon, 2010}. One is associated with p53 inactivation, the second with ?-catenin activation. No molecular defect has been identified in the third group so far. The aim is to describe the genome-wide methylome of adrenocortical tumors, and to assess the link with previously established molecular classifications. Experimental design: Genome-wide methylation patterns of 84 adenomas and 51 carcinomas were obtained with the Infinium HumanMethylation27 beadchip (Illumina). | Submitter : Olivia Barreau | Project leader : Jerome Bertherat

<h4>Purpose</h4>DNA methylation is a mechanism for gene expression silencing in cancer. Limited information is available for adrenocortical tumors. Abnormal methylation at the IGF2/H19 locus is common in adrenocortical carcinomas. Our aim was to characterize the methylation in adrenocortical carcinomas at a whole-genome scale and to assess its clinical significance and its impact on gene expression.<h4>Experimental design</h4>Methylation patterns of CpG islands in promoter regions of 51 adrenoco  ...[more]
