IDH1 mutations in oligodendroglial tumors: comparative analysis of direct sequencing, pyrosequencing, immunohistochemistry, nested PCR and PNA-mediated clamping PCR.

ABSTRACT: Mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) are found in a high proportion of glial tumors and have a significant prognostic impact. Although direct sequencing has been considered to be the gold-standard method to detect this mutation, the sensitivity of this technique has been questioned especially because specimens from glial tumors may contain large numbers of non-tumor cells. We screened 141 cases of oligodendroglial tumors for IDH1 mutations using peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-mediated clamping polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and compared the results with the results of direct sequencing, pyrosequencing, and immunohistochemistry (IHC). Nested PCR was only performed in cases having mutant IDH1 only discovered by clamping PCR. Using dilution experiments mixing IDH1 wild-type and mutant DNA samples, clamping PCR detected mutations in samples with a 1% tumor DNA composition. Using PNA clamping PCR, we detected 138 of 141 (97.9%) cases with mutant IDH1 in our series, which is significantly higher (P = 0.016; PNA clamping vs. direct sequencing) than those of direct sequencing (74.5%), pyrosequencing (75.2%) and IHC (75.9%). From our results, almost all oligodendroglial tumors have IDH1 mutations, and this suggests that IDH1 mutation is an early and common event especially in the development of oligodendroglial tumors.

Non-Small-Cell Lung Cancer-Sensitive Detection of the p.Thr790Met EGFR Alteration by Preamplification before PNA-Mediated PCR Clamping and Pyrosequencing.

Project description:Targeted therapies and, more precisely, EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been a major improvement in the therapeutic management of EGFR-mutated non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLCs). Earlier administration of these TKIs throughout tumor progression is imperative to improve patient outcomes. Consequently, studies have focused on refining the characterization of biomarkers, especially concerning the resistance mutation p.Thr790Met of EGFR. Herein, we developed peptide nucleic acid (PNA)-mediated PCR clamping followed by pyrosequencing, favoring enrichment of the mutated fraction. A preamplification step was first added to increase the amplifiable DNA fraction. Throughout the application of our method on DNA extracted from FFPE samples of 46 patients with NSCLC who had relapsed under first-generation EGFR TKI, we evaluated a sensitivity of 93.3% and a specificity of 100%. All 19 patients who were positive for the p.Thr790Met mutation with NGS were also found to be positive with our protocol. The only discordant case was a sample with no mutation detected with NGS, but which was positive with PNA. This protocol allows for the detection of the p.Thr790Met mutation with a sensitivity of 0.5% which will permit earlier detection and an improvement of therapeutic management.

Clonal analysis in recurrent astrocytic, oligoastrocytic and oligodendroglial tumors implicates IDH1- mutation as common tumor initiating event.

Project description:BackgroundTo investigate the dynamics of inter- and intratumoral molecular alterations during tumor progression in recurrent gliomas.Methodology/principal findingsTo address intertumoral heterogeneity we investigated non-microdissected tumor tissue of 106 gliomas representing 51 recurrent tumors. To address intratumoral heterogeneity a set of 16 gliomas representing 7 tumor pairs with at least one recurrence, and 4 single mixed gliomas were investigated by microdissection of distinct oligodendroglial and astrocytic tumor components. All tumors and tumor components were analyzed for allelic loss of 1p/19q (LOH 1p/19q), for TP53- mutations and for R132 mutations in the IDH1 gene. The investigation of non-microdissected tumor tissue revealed clonality in 75% (38/51). Aberrant molecular alterations upon recurrence were detected in 25% (13/51). 64% (9/14) of these were novel and associated with tumor progression. Loss of previously detected alterations was observed in 36% (5/14). One tumor pair (1/14; 7%) was significant for both. Intratumoral clonality was detected in 57% (4/7) of the microdissected tumor pairs and in 75% (3/4) of single microdissected tumors. 43% (3/7) of tumor pairs and one single tumor (25%) revealed intratumoral heterogeneity. While intratumoral heterogeneity affected both the TP53- mutational status and the LOH1p/19q status, all tumors with intratumoral heterogeneity shared the R132 IDH1- mutation as a common feature in both their microdissected components.Conclusions/significanceThe majority of recurrent gliomas are of monoclonal origin. However, the detection of divertive tumor cell clones in morphological distinct tumor components sharing IDH1- mutations as early event may provide insight into the tumorigenesis of true mixed gliomas.

Detection of K-Ras mutations in tumour samples of patients with non-small cell lung cancer using PNA-mediated PCR clamping.

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC), in particular adenocarcinoma, are often mixed with normal cells. Therefore, low sensitivity of direct sequencing used for K-Ras mutation analysis could be inadequate in some cases. Our study focused on the possibility to increase the detection of K-Ras mutations in cases of low tumour cellularity. Besides direct sequencing, we used wild-type hybridisation probes and peptide-nucleic-acid (PNA)-mediated PCR clamping to detect mutations at codons 12 and 13, in 114 routine consecutive NSCLC frozen surgical tumours untreated by targeted drugs. The sensitivity of the analysis without or with PNA was 10 and 1% of tumour DNA, respectively. Direct sequencing revealed K-Ras mutations in 11 out of 114 tumours (10%). Using PNA-mediated PCR clamping, 10 additional cases of K-Ras mutations were detected (21 out of 114, 18%, P<0.005), among which five in samples with low tumour cellularity. In adenocarcinoma, K-Ras mutation frequency increased from 7 out of 55 (13%) by direct sequencing to 15 out of 55 (27%) by clamped-PCR (P<0.005). K-Ras mutations detected by these sensitive techniques lost its prognostic value. In conclusion, a rapid and sensitive PCR-clamping test avoiding macro or micro dissection could be proposed in routine analysis especially for NSCLC samples with low percentage of tumour cells such as bronchial biopsies or after neoadjuvant chemotherapy.

Detection of Ki-ras mutations in tissue and plasma samples of patients with pancreatic cancer using PNA-mediated PCR clamping and hybridisation probes.

Project description:In the present study, we combined the PCR-clamping approach with melting curve analysis using mutant specific hybridisation probes and wild-type specific peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) to determine the genotypes of the most frequent point mutation in codon 12 of the proto-oncogene Ki-ras in tissue and plasma samples of patients with pancreatic cancer. The sensitivity of our assay was 1-5 x 10(-5). The melting curve analysis of tissue samples of four patients revealed two valine mutations, one none-valine mutation and one wild-type sequence. Ki-ras alterations were found in 28% of DNAs (18 out of 64) of nonrelated plasma samples of 10 patients with ductal adenocarcinoma of the pancreas. The valine mutation was the predominantly detected gene alteration (83%). Out of ten patients investigated, four patients (40%) became positive during clinical observation with respect to Ki-ras mutation. All four patients exhibited progressive disease and high levels of tumour marker CA 19-9. In conclusion, the one-step procedure discribed may be a useful clinical tool for analysing Ki-ras point mutations in tissue and plasmas samples. In addition, this method can be adapted for simultanous detection of multiple mutations and quantitation.

A low-frequency variant at 8q24.21 is strongly associated with risk of oligodendroglial tumors and astrocytomas with IDH1 or IDH2 mutation.

Project description:Variants at 8q24.21 have been shown to be associated with glioma development. By means of tag SNP genotyping and imputation, pooled next-generation sequencing using long-range PCR and subsequent validation SNP genotyping, we identified seven low-frequency SNPs at 8q24.21 that were strongly associated with glioma risk (P=1×10(-25) to 1×10(-14)). The most strongly associated SNP, rs55705857, remained highly significant after individual adjustment for the other top six SNPs and two previously published SNPs. After stratifying by histological and tumor genetic subtype, the most significant associations of rs55705857 were with oligodendroglial tumors and gliomas with mutant IDH1 or IDH2 (odds ratio (OR)=5.1, P=1.1×10(-31) and OR=4.8, P=6.6×10(-22), respectively). Strong associations were observed for astrocytomas with mutated IDH1 or IDH2 (grades 2-4) (OR=5.16-6.66, P=4.7×10(-12) to 2.2×10(-8)) but not for astrocytomas with wild-type IDH1 and IDH2 (smallest P=0.26). The conserved sequence block that includes rs55705857 is consistently modeled as a microRNA.

Direct amplification of single-stranded DNA for pyrosequencing using linear-after-the-exponential (LATE)-PCR.

Project description:Pyrosequencing is a highly effective method for quantitatively genotyping short genetic sequences, but it currently is hampered by a labor-intensive sample preparation process designed to isolate single-stranded DNA from double-stranded products generated by conventional PCR. Here linear-after-the-exponential (LATE)-PCR is introduced as an efficient and potentially automatable method of directly amplifying single-stranded DNA for pyrosequencing, thereby eliminating the need for solid-phase sample preparation and reducing the risk of laboratory contamination. These improvements are illustrated for single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping applications, including an integrated single-cell-through-sequencing assay to detect a mutation at the globin IVS 110 site that frequently is responsible for beta-thalassemia.

PNA Clamping in Nucleic Acid Amplification Protocols to Detect Single Nucleotide Mutations Related to Cancer.

Project description:This review describes the application of peptide nucleic acids (PNAs) as clamps that prevent nucleic acid amplification of wild-type DNA so that DNA with mutations may be observed. These methods are useful to detect single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in cases where there is a small amount of mutated DNA relative to the amount of normal (unmutated/wild-type) DNA. Detecting SNPs arising from mutated DNA can be useful to diagnose various genetic diseases, and is especially important in cancer diagnostics for early detection, proper diagnosis, and monitoring of disease progression. Most examples use PNA clamps to inhibit PCR amplification of wild-type DNA to identify the presence of mutated DNA associated with various types of cancer.

Radiation therapy and grade II/III oligodendroglial tumors.

Project description:Radiotherapy has been a longstanding treatment option for low-grade glioma. Improvements in tumor control and radiation-related toxicity may be attributed to advances in neuroimaging as well as radiotherapy planning and delivery. The discovery of various molecular prognostic factors have aided in patient selection for radiotherapy. These prognostic and predictive factors may also play a key role in determining which patients are likely to benefit most from combined systemic therapy and radiation.

Epidermal growth factor receptor expression in oligodendroglial tumors.

Project description:A series of 13 oligodendrogliomas (WHO grade II) and 20 anaplastic oligodendrogliomas (WHO grade III) was studied for gene amplification and expression of the epidermal growth factor receptor gene (EGFR). EGFR gene amplification was found in only one case of anaplastic oligodendroglioma, which additionally showed a deletion/rearrangement at the 5' end of the gene. Northern blot analysis, however, revealed increases of EGFR mRNA expression relative to non-neoplastic control brain in 6 of 13 oligodendrogliomas and 10 of 18 anaplastic oligodendrogliomas. All cases with increased mRNA expression showed strong immunoreactivity for EGFR protein. Our findings thus indicate that increased expression of EGFR mRNA and protein is common in low-grade and high-grade oligodendroglial tumors and in the vast majority of cases is not caused by gene amplification.

Generation of oligodendroglial cells by direct lineage conversion.

Project description:Transplantation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) is a promising potential therapeutic strategy for diseases affecting myelin. However, the derivation of engraftable OPCs from human pluripotent stem cells has proven difficult and primary OPCs are not readily available. Here we report the generation of induced OPCs (iOPCs) by direct lineage conversion. Forced expression of the three transcription factors Sox10, Olig2 and Zfp536 was sufficient to reprogram mouse and rat fibroblasts into iOPCs with morphologies and gene expression signatures resembling primary OPCs. More importantly, iOPCs gave rise to mature oligodendrocytes that could ensheath multiple host axons when co-cultured with primary dorsal root ganglion cells and formed myelin after transplantation into shiverer mice. We propose direct lineage reprogramming as a viable alternative approach for the generation of OPCs for use in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.
