Long non-coding RNAs lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 and lnc-GJA10-12:1 present as regulators of sentinel lymph node metastasis in breast cancer.

ABSTRACT: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) participate in various biological processed involved in tumorigenesis, metastasis and proliferation. The aim of the present study was to identify candidate long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) involved in sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastasis in breast cancer. Specimens of SLNs were collected from patients with SLN metastasis via punch biopsy. Total RNA was extracted and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was conducted. Differential expression profiles of mRNAs and lncRNAs were obtained via bioinformatics analysis, and Gene Oncology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analyses were performed on differentially expressed mRNAs. The expression levels of lncRNAs were analyzed via reverse transcription-quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), and the regulation network of the lncRNAs to downstream microRNAs (miRs) and mRNAs was predicted. Based on RNA-seq results, six differentially expressed candidate lncRNAs were identified in patients with and without SLN metastasis: lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3, lnc-GJA10-12:1, lnc-ACAN-2:1, lnc-ZPBP2-4:1, lnc-GATA3-16:1 and lnc-ACOX3-5:1. KEGG and GO analysis identified that the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and PI3K/Akt signaling pathways were the most enriched pathways. After RT-qPCR analysis, lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 and lnc-GJA10-12:1 exhibited expression patterns that were consistent with those from RNA-seq. Moreover, receiver operating characteristic curve analysis demonstrated that lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 and lnc-GJA10-12:1 expression levels had high sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of SLN metastasis, and that their expression levels were upregulated in patients with axillary lymph node metastasis. Further analysis revealed that lnc-GJA10-12:1 and lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 were commonly involved in regulating the miR-302 family, including miR-302d-3p and miR-302c-3p, which together targeted AKT1. Additionally, lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 was predicted to target miR-520b to regulate MAP3K2 expression. lnc-GJA10-12:1 was also predicted to target miR-34a-5p to regulate MAP2K1 and MAP3K9 expression levels, as well as miR-449a to regulate MAP2K1 expression. The results of the present study suggested that lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 and lnc-GJA10-12:1 may potentially serve a role in SLN metastasis of breast cancer by regulating the PI3K/Akt and MAPK signaling pathways via targeting the miR-302 family, miR-520a-3p, miR-34a-5p and miR-449a. Thus, lnc-ANGPTL1-3:3 and lnc-GJA10-12:1 in SLN may serve as potential markers of breast cancer metastasis.

Project description:BackgroundCurrent practice is to perform a completion axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) for breast cancer patients with tumor-involved sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs), although fewer than half will have non-sentinel node (NSLN) metastasis. Our goal was to develop new models to quantify the risk of NSLN metastasis in SLN-positive patients and to compare predictive capabilities to another widely used model.MethodsWe constructed three models to predict NSLN status: recursive partitioning with receiver operating characteristic curves (RP-ROC), boosted Classification and Regression Trees (CART), and multivariate logistic regression (MLR) informed by CART. Data were compiled from a multicenter Northern California and Oregon database of 784 patients who prospectively underwent SLN biopsy and completion ALND. We compared the predictive abilities of our best model and the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Breast Cancer Nomogram (Nomogram) in our dataset and an independent dataset from Northwestern University.Results285 patients had positive SLNs, of which 213 had known angiolymphatic invasion status and 171 had complete pathologic data including hormone receptor status. 264 (93%) patients had limited SLN disease (micrometastasis, 70%, or isolated tumor cells, 23%). 101 (35%) of all SLN-positive patients had tumor-involved NSLNs. Three variables (tumor size, angiolymphatic invasion, and SLN metastasis size) predicted risk in all our models. RP-ROC and boosted CART stratified patients into four risk levels. MLR informed by CART was most accurate. Using two composite predictors calculated from three variables, MLR informed by CART was more accurate than the Nomogram computed using eight predictors. In our dataset, area under ROC curve (AUC) was 0.83/0.85 for MLR (n = 213/n = 171) and 0.77 for Nomogram (n = 171). When applied to an independent dataset (n = 77), AUC was 0.74 for our model and 0.62 for Nomogram. The composite predictors in our model were the product of angiolymphatic invasion and size of SLN metastasis, and the product of tumor size and square of SLN metastasis size.ConclusionWe present a new model developed from a community-based SLN database that uses only three rather than eight variables to achieve higher accuracy than the Nomogram for predicting NSLN status in two different datasets.

Project description:To limit the potential short and long-term morbidity of lymphadenectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy has been proposed for endometrial cancer. The principle of sentinel lymph node biopsy relies on removal of a small number of lymph nodes that are the first drainage basins from a tumor and thus the most likely to harbor tumor cells. While the procedure may reduce morbidity, efficacy data are limited and little is known about how commonly the procedure is performed.We examined the patterns and predictors of use of sentinel lymph node biopsy and outcomes of the procedure in women with endometrial cancer who underwent hysterectomy.We used the Perspective database to identify women with uterine cancer who underwent hysterectomy from 2011 through 2015. Billing and charge codes were used to classify women as having undergone lymphadenectomy, sentinel lymph node biopsy, or no nodal assessment. Multivariable models were used to examine clinical, demographic, and hospital characteristics with use of sentinel lymph node biopsy. Length of stay and cost were compared among the different methods of nodal assessment.Among 28,362 patients, 9327 (32.9%) did not undergo nodal assessment, 17,669 (62.3%) underwent lymphadenectomy, and 1366 (4.8%) underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy. Sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed in 1.3% (95% confidence interval, 1.0-1.6%) of abdominal hysterectomies, 3.4% (95% confidence interval, 2.7-4.1%) of laparoscopic hysterectomies, and 7.5% (95% confidence interval, 7.0-8.0%) of robotic-assisted hysterectomies. In a multivariable model, more recent year of surgery was associated with performance of sentinel lymph node biopsy. Compared to abdominal hysterectomy, those undergoing laparoscopic (adjusted risk ratio, 2.45; 95% confidence interval, 1.89-3.18) and robotic-assisted (adjusted risk ratio, 2.69; 95% confidence interval, 2.19-3.30) hysterectomy were more likely to undergo sentinel lymph node biopsy. Among women who underwent minimally invasive hysterectomy, length of stay and cost were lower for sentinel lymph node biopsy compared to lymphadenectomy.The use of sentinel lymph node biopsy for endometrial cancer increased from 2011 through 2015. The increased use was most notable in women who underwent a robotic-assisted hysterectomy.
