Somatic Mutation Profiling of Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma: Comparison between Primary and Metastasis Tumor Tissues.

ABSTRACT: Introduction:Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) exhibited increasing incidence and mortality around the world, with a 35% five-year survival rate. In this study, the genetic alteration of primary ICC and metastasis ICC was exhibited to discover novel personalized treatment strategies to improve the clinical prognosis. Methods:Based on 153 primary and 49 metastasis formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded ICC samples, comprehensive genomic profiling was carried out. Results:In primary tumor samples (PSs) and metastasis tumor samples (MSs), the top alteration genes were TP53 (41.8% vs 36.7%), KRAS (30.7% vs 36.7%), and ARID1A (22.2% vs 14.2%). In the top 20 most frequent alteration genes, BRAF showed lower mutation frequency in MSs as compared to PSs (0 vs 11.1%, P=0.015), while LRP1B exhibited opposed trend (22.4% vs 10.4%, P=0.032). In PSs, patients with MSI-H showed all PDL1 negative, and patients with PDL1 positive exhibited MSS both in PSs and MSs. It was found that the Notch pathway had more alteration genes in MSI-H patients (P=0.027). Furthermore, the patients with mutated immune genes in PSs were more than that in MSs (28.8% vs 8.2%, P=0.003, odd ratio?=?0.2). Interestingly, the platinum drug resistance pathway was only enriched by mutated genes of MSs. Conclusions:In this study, the identification of two meaningful mutated genes, BRAF and LRP1B, highly mutated immune gene harbored by primary ICC patients. Both in PSs and MSs, no patients with MSI-H showed PDL1 positive. The Notch pathway had more alteration genes in patients with MSI-H. And the enrichment of the platinum drug resistance pathway in MSs might offer reference for the novel therapeutic strategy of ICC.

Project description:BackgroundIntrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (iCCA) is a highly lethal malignancy of the biliary tract. Analysis of somatic mutational profiling can reveal new prognostic markers and actionable treatment targets. In this study, we explored the utility of genomic mutation signature and tumor mutation burden (TMB) in predicting prognosis in iCCA patients.MethodsWhole-exome sequencing and corresponding clinical data were collected from the ICGC portal and cBioPortal database to detect the prognostic mutated genes and determine TMB values. To identify the hub prognostic mutant signature, we used Cox regression and Lasso feature selection. Mutation-related signature (MRS) was constructed using multivariate Cox regression. The predictive performances of MRS and TMB were assessed using Kaplan-Meier (KM) analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC). We performed a functional enrichment pathway analysis using gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) for mutated genes. Based on the MRS, TMB, and the TNM stage, a nomogram was constructed to visualize prognosis in iCCA patients.ResultsThe mutation landscape illustrated distributions of mutation frequencies and types in iCCA, and generated a list of most frequently mutated genes (such as Tp53, KRAS, ARID1A, and IDH1). Thirty-two mutated genes associated with overall survival (OS) were identified in iCCA patients. We obtained a six-gene signature using the Lasso and Cox method. AUCs for the MRS in the prediction of 1-, 3-, and 5-year OS were 0.759, 0.732, and 0.728, respectively. Kaplan-Meier analysis showed a significant difference in prognosis for patients with iCCA having a high and low MRS score (P < 0.001). GSEA was used to show that several signaling pathways, including MAPK, PI3K-AKT, and proteoglycan, were involved in cancer. Conversely, survival analysis indicated that TMB was significantly associated with prognosis. GSEA indicated that samples with high MRS or TMB also showed an upregulated expression of pathways involved in tumor signaling and the immune response. Finally, the predictive nomogram (that included MRS, TMB, and the TNM stage) demonstrated satisfactory performance in predicting survival in patients with iCCA.ConclusionsMutation-related signature and TMB were associated with prognosis in patients with iCCA. Our study provides a valuable prognostic predictor for determining outcomes in patients with iCCA.

Project description:BackgroundConsiderable evidence shows that circular RNAs (circRNAs) play an important role in tumor development. However, their function in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) metastasis and the underlying mechanisms are incompletely understood.MethodscircNFIB (hsa_circ_0086376, termed as cNFIB hereafter) was identified in human ICC tissues through circRNAs sequencing. The biological role of cNFIB was determined in vitro and in vivo by gain or loss of functional experiments. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), RNA immunoprecipitation (RIP) and RNA pull-down assays were conducted to analyze the interaction of cNFIB with dual specificity mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase1 (MEK1). Duolink in situ proximity ligation assay (PLA) and coimmunoprecipitation (co-IP) assay were used to investigate the effects of cNFIB on the interaction between MEK1 and mitogen-activated protein kinase 2 (ERK2). Finally, a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments were performed to explore the influences of cNFIB on the anti-tumor activity of trametinib (a MEK inhibitor).ResultscNFIB was significantly down-regulated in human ICC tissues with postoperative metastases. The loss of cNFIB was highly associated with aggressive characteristics and predicted unfavorable prognosis in ICC patients. Functional studies revealed that cNFIB inhibited the proliferation and metastasis of ICC cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, cNFIB competitively interacted with MEK1, which induced the dissociation between MEK1 and ERK2, thereby resulting in the suppression of ERK signaling and tumor metastasis. Moreover, we found that ICC cells with high levels of cNFIB held the potential to delay the trametinib resistance. Consistently, in vivo and in vitro studies demonstrated that cotreatment with trametinib and lentivirus vector encoding cNFIB showed greater inhibitory effect than isolated trametinib treatment.ConclusionsOur findings identified that cNFIB played a key role in ICC growth and metastasis by regulating MEK1/ERK signaling. Given the efficacy of cNFIB modulation on ICC suppression and trametinib sensitivity, cNFIB appears to be a potential therapeutic molecule for ICC treatment.
