Identification of an immune classification for cervical cancer and integrative analysis of multiomics data.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To understand the molecular mechanisms of the antitumour response, we analysed the immune landscape of cervical cancer to identify novel immune molecular classes.

Methods

We established a stable immune molecular classification using a nonnegative matrix factorization algorithm and validated the correlation in two validation sets of 249 samples.

Results

Approximately 78% of cervical cancers (CCs) (228/293) were identified to show significant enrichment in immune cells (e.g., CD8 T cells and macrophages), a type I IFN response, enhanced cytolytic activity and high PDCD1, and these CCs were referred to as the "immune class". We further identified two subtypes of the immune class: active immune and exhausted subtypes. Although the active immune subtype was characterized by enrichment of IFN signatures and better survival, the exhausted subtype expressed activated stroma, a wound healing signature, enhanced M2 macrophages and absence of CD8 T cells and the TGF-β response signature. Integrative analysis of multiomics data identified EGFR, JUN, MYC, FN1 and SERPINE1 as key modulators of the tumour immune microenvironment and potential targets for combination therapies which was validated in two validation sets.

Conclusions

Our study introduces a novel immune classification that might predict ideal candidates to receive immunotherapy or specific combination therapies.

Integrative multiomics-histopathology analysis for breast cancer classification.

Project description:Histopathologic evaluation of biopsy slides is a critical step in diagnosing and subtyping breast cancers. However, the connections between histology and multi-omics status have never been systematically explored or interpreted. We developed weakly supervised deep learning models over hematoxylin-and-eosin-stained slides to examine the relations between visual morphological signal, clinical subtyping, gene expression, and mutation status in breast cancer. We first designed fully automated models for tumor detection and pathology subtype classification, with the results validated in independent cohorts (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve ≥ 0.950). Using only visual information, our models achieved strong predictive performance in estrogen/progesterone/HER2 receptor status, PAM50 status, and TP53 mutation status. We demonstrated that these models learned lymphocyte-specific morphological signals to identify estrogen receptor status. Examination of the PAM50 cohort revealed a subset of PAM50 genes whose expression reflects cancer morphology. This work demonstrates the utility of deep learning-based image models in both clinical and research regimes, through its ability to uncover connections between visual morphology and genetic statuses.

A general framework for integrative analysis of incomplete multiomics data.

Project description:There is a tremendous current interest in measuring multiple types of omics features (e.g., DNA sequences, RNA expressions, methylation profiles, metabolic profiles, protein expressions) on a large number of subjects. Although genotypes are typically available for all study subjects, other data types may be measured only on a subset of subjects due to cost or other constraints. In addition, quantitative omics measurements, such as metabolite levels and protein expressions, are subject to detection limits in that the measurements below (or above) certain thresholds are not detectable. In this article, we propose a rigorous and powerful approach to handle missing values and detection limits in integrative analysis of multiomics data. We relate quantitative omics variables to genetic variants and other variables through linear regression models and relate phenotypes to quantitative omics variables and other variables through generalized linear models. We derive the joint-likelihood for the two sets of models by allowing arbitrary patterns of missing values and detection limits for quantitative omics variables. We carry out maximum-likelihood estimation through computationally fast and stable algorithms. The resulting estimators are approximately unbiased and statistically efficient. An application to a major study on chronic obstructive lung disease yielded new biological insights.

Integrative multiomics analysis highlights immune-cell regulatory mechanisms and shared genetic architecture for 14 immune-associated diseases and cancer outcomes.

Project description:Developing functional insight into the causal molecular drivers of immunological disease is a critical challenge in genomic medicine. Here, we systematically apply Mendelian randomization (MR), genetic colocalization, immune-cell-type enrichment, and phenome-wide association methods to investigate the effects of genetically predicted gene expression on ten immune-associated diseases and four cancer outcomes. Using whole blood-derived estimates for regulatory variants from the eQTLGen consortium (n = 31,684), we constructed genetic risk scores for 10,104 genes. Applying the inverse-variance-weighted MR method transcriptome wide while accounting for linkage disequilibrium structure identified 664 unique genes with evidence of a genetically predicted effect on at least one disease outcome (p < 4.81 × 10-5). We next undertook genetic colocalization to investigate cell-type-specific effects at these loci by using gene expression data derived from 18 types of immune cells. This highlighted many cell-type-dependent effects, such as PRKCQ expression and asthma risk (posterior probability = 0.998), which was T cell specific. Phenome-wide analyses on 311 complex traits and endpoints allowed us to explore shared genetic architecture and prioritize key drivers of disease risk, such as CASP10, which provided evidence of an effect on seven cancer-related outcomes. Our atlas of results can be used to characterize known and novel loci in immune-associated disease and cancer susceptibility, both in terms of elucidating cell-type-dependent effects as well as dissecting shared disease pathways and pervasive pleiotropy. As an exemplar, we have highlighted several key findings in this study, although similar evaluations can be conducted via our interactive web platform.

iPoLNG-An unsupervised model for the integrative analysis of single-cell multiomics data.

Project description:Single-cell multiomics technologies, where the transcriptomic and epigenomic profiles are simultaneously measured in the same set of single cells, pose significant challenges for effective integrative analysis. Here, we propose an unsupervised generative model, iPoLNG, for the effective and scalable integration of single-cell multiomics data. iPoLNG reconstructs low-dimensional representations of the cells and features using computationally efficient stochastic variational inference by modelling the discrete counts in single-cell multiomics data with latent factors. The low-dimensional representation of cells enables the identification of distinct cell types, and the feature by factor loading matrices help characterize cell-type specific markers and provide rich biological insights on the functional pathway enrichment analysis. iPoLNG is also able to handle the setting of partial information where certain modality of the cells is missing. Taking advantage of GPU and probabilistic programming, iPoLNG is scalable to large datasets and it takes less than 15 min to implement on datasets with 20,000 cells.

Integrative Modeling of Multiomics Data for Predicting Tumor Mutation Burden in Patients with Lung Cancer.

Project description:Immunotherapy has been widely used in the treatment of lung cancer, and one of the most effective biomarkers for the prognosis of immunotherapy currently is tumor mutation burden (TMB). Although whole-exome sequencing (WES) could be utilized to assess TMB, several problems prevent its routine clinical application. To develop a simplified TMB prediction model, patients with lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) were randomly split into training and validation cohorts and categorized into the TMB-high (TMB-H) and TMB-low (TMB-L) groups, respectively. Based on the 610 differentially expressed genes, 50 differentially expressed miRNAs and 58 differentially methylated CpG sites between TMB-H and TMB-L patients, we constructed 4 predictive signatures and established TMB prediction model through machine learning methods that integrating the expression or methylation profiles of 7 genes, 7 miRNAs, and 6 CpG sites. The multiomics model exhibited excellent performance in predicting TMB with the area under curve (AUC) of 0.911 in the training cohort and 0.859 in the validation cohort. Besides, the significant correlation between the multiomics model score and TMB was observed. In summary, we developed a prognostic TMB prediction model by integrating multiomics data in patients with LUAD, which might facilitate the further development of quantitative real time-polymerase chain reaction- (qRT-PCR-) based TMB prediction assay.

Multiomics Data Analysis and Identification of Immune-Related Prognostic Signatures With Potential Implications in Prognosis and Immune Checkpoint Blockade Therapy of Glioblastoma.

Project description:BackgroundIn recent years, glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) has been a concern of many researchers, as it is one of the main drivers of cancer-related deaths worldwide. GBM in general usually does not responding well to immunotherapy due to its unique microenvironment.MethodsTo uncover any further informative immune-related prognostic signatures, we explored the immune-related distinction in the genetic or epigenetic features of the three types (expression profile, somatic mutation, and DNA methylation). Twenty eight immune-related hub genes were identified by Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA). The findings showed that three genes (IL1R1, TNFSF12, and VDR) were identified to construct an immune-related prognostic model (IRPM) by lasso regression. Then, we used three hub genes to construct an IRPM for GBM and clarify the immunity, mutation, and methylation characteristics.ResultsSurvival analysis of patients undergoing anti-program cell death protein 1 (anti-PD-1) therapy showed that overall survival was superior in the low-risk group than in the high-risk group. The high-risk group had an association with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), high immune cell infiltration, immune activation, a low mutation number, and high methylation, while the low-risk group was adverse status.ConclusionsIn conclusion, IRPM is a promising tool to distinguish the prognosis of patients and molecular and immune characteristics in GBM, and the IRPM risk score can be used to predict patient sensitivity to checkpoint inhibitor blockade therapy. Thus, three immune-related signatures will guide us in improving treatment strategies and developing objective diagnostic tools.

An Integrative Multiomics Framework for Identification of Therapeutic Targets in Pulmonary Fibrosis.

Project description:Pulmonary fibrosis (PF) is a heterogeneous disease with a poor prognosis. Therefore, identifying additional therapeutic modalities is required to improve outcome. However, the lack of biomarkers of disease progression hampers the preclinical to clinical translational process. Here, this work assesses and identifies progressive alterations in pulmonary function, transcriptomics, and metabolomics in the mouse lung at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after a single dose of oropharyngeal bleomycin. By integrating multi-omics data, this work identifies two central gene subnetworks associated with multiple critical pathological changes in transcriptomics and metabolomics as well as pulmonary function. This work presents a multi-omics-based framework to establish a translational link between the bleomycin-induced PF model in mice and human idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis to identify druggable targets and test therapeutic candidates. This work also indicates peripheral cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1 R) antagonism as a rational therapeutic target for clinical translation in PF.

Identification of genetic determinants of breast cancer immune phenotypes by integrative genome-scale analysis.

Project description:Cancer immunotherapy is revolutionizing the clinical management of several tumors, but has demonstrated limited activity in breast cancer. The development of more effective treatments is hindered by incomplete knowledge of the genetic determinant of immune responsiveness. To fill this gap, we mined copy number alteration, somatic mutation, and expression data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA). By using RNA-sequencing data from 1,004 breast cancers, we defined distinct immune phenotypes characterized by progressive expression of transcripts previously associated with immune-mediated rejection. The T helper 1 (Th-1) phenotype (ICR4), which also displays upregulation of immune-regulatory transcripts such as PDL1, PD1, FOXP3, IDO1, and CTLA4, was associated with prolonged patients' survival. We validated these findings in an independent meta-cohort of 1,954 breast cancer gene expression data. Chromosome segment 4q21, which includes genes encoding for the Th-1 chemokines CXCL9-11, was significantly amplified only in the immune favorable phenotype (ICR4). The mutation and neoantigen load progressively decreased from ICR4 to ICR1 but could not fully explain immune phenotypic differences. Mutations of TP53 were enriched in the immune favorable phenotype (ICR4). Conversely, the presence of MAP3K1 and MAP2K4 mutations were tightly associated with an immune-unfavorable phenotype (ICR1). Using both the TCGA and the validation dataset, the degree of MAPK deregulation segregates breast tumors according to their immune disposition. These findings suggest that mutation-driven perturbations of MAPK pathways are linked to the negative regulation of intratumoral immune response in breast cancer. Modulations of MAPK pathways could be experimentally tested to enhance breast cancer immune sensitivity.

Biomarker Identification through Multiomics Data Analysis of Prostate Cancer Prognostication Using a Deep Learning Model and Similarity Network Fusion.

Project description:This study is to identify potential multiomics biomarkers for the early detection of the prognostic recurrence of PC patients. A total of 494 prostate adenocarcinoma (PRAD) patients (60-recurrent included) from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) portal were analyzed using the autoencoder model and similarity network fusion. Then, multiomics panels were constructed according to the intersected omics biomarkers identified from the two models. Six intersected omics biomarkers, TELO2, ZMYND19, miR-143, miR-378a, cg00687383 (MED4), and cg02318866 (JMJD6; METTL23), were collected for multiomics panel construction. The difference between the Kaplan-Meier curves of high and low recurrence-risk groups generated from the multiomics panel achieved p-value = 5.33 × 10-9, which is better than the former study (p-value = 5 × 10-7). Additionally, when evaluating the selected multiomics biomarkers with clinical information (Gleason score, age, and cancer stage), a high-performance prediction model was generated with C-index = 0.713, p-value = 2.97 × 10-15, and AUC = 0.789. The risk score generated from the selected multiomics biomarkers worked as an effective indicator for the prediction of PRAD recurrence. This study helps us to understand the etiology and pathways of PRAD and further benefits both patients and physicians with potential prognostic biomarkers when making clinical decisions after surgical treatment.

Multiomics integrative analysis reveals antagonistic roles of CBX2 and CBX7 in metabolic reprogramming of breast cancer.

Project description:Striking similarity exists between metabolic changes associated with embryogenesis and tumorigenesis. Chromobox proteins-CBX2/4/6/7/8, core components of canonical polycomb repressor complex 1, play essential roles in embryonic development and aberrantly expressed in breast cancer. Understanding how altered CBX expression relates to metabolic reprogramming in breast cancer may reveal vulnerabilities of therapeutic pertinence. Using transcriptomic and metabolomic data from breast cancer patients (N > 3000 combined), we performed pathway-based analysis and identified outstanding roles of CBX2 and CBX7 in positive and negative regulation of glucose metabolism, respectively. Genetic ablation experiments validated the contrasting roles of two isoforms in cancer metabolism and cell growth. Furthermore, we provide evidence for the role of mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 signaling in mediating contrary effects of CBX2 and CBX7 on breast cancer metabolism. Underpinning the biological significance of metabolic roles, CBX2 and CBX7 were found to be the most up- and downregulated isoforms, respectively, in breast tumors compared with normal tissues. Moreover, CBX2 and CBX7 expression (not other isoforms) correlated strongly, but oppositely, with breast tumor subtype aggressiveness and the proliferation markers. Consistently, genomic data also showed higher amplification frequency of CBX2, not CBX7, in breast tumors. Highlighting the clinical significance of findings, disease-specific survival and drug sensitivity analysis revealed that CBX2 and CBX7 predicted patient outcome and sensitivity to FDA-approved/investigational drugs. In summary, this work identifies novel cross talk between CBX2/7 and breast tumor metabolism, and the results presented may have implications in strategies targeting breast cancer.
