Project description:Cancer cells can have different patterns of exon usage of individual genes when compared to normal tissue, suggesting that alternative splicing may play a role in shaping the tumor phenotype. The discovery and identification of gene variants has increased dramatically with the introduction of RNA-sequencing technology, which enables whole transcriptome analysis of known, as well as novel isoforms. Here we report alternative splicing and transcriptional events among subtypes of invasive ductal carcinoma in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Breast Invasive Carcinoma (BRCA) cohort. Alternative exon usage was widespread, and although common events were shared among three subtypes, ER+ HER2-, ER- HER2-, and HER2+, many events on the exon level were subtype specific. Additional RNA-seq analysis was carried out in an independent cohort of 43 ER+ HER2- and ER- HER2- primary breast tumors, confirming many of the exon events identified in the TCGA cohort. Alternative splicing and transcriptional events detected in five genes, MYO6, EPB41L1, TPD52, IQCG, and ACOX2 were validated by qRT-PCR in a third cohort of 40 ER+ HER2- and ER- HER2- patients, showing that these events were truly subtype specific.

Project description:Pulmonary large-cell neuroendocrine carcinomas (LCNECs) have similarities with other lung cancers, but their precise relationship has remained unclear. Here we perform a comprehensive genomic (n?=?60) and transcriptomic (n?=?69) analysis of 75 LCNECs and identify two molecular subgroups: "type I LCNECs" with bi-allelic TP53 and STK11/KEAP1 alterations (37%), and "type II LCNECs" enriched for bi-allelic inactivation of TP53 and RB1 (42%). Despite sharing genomic alterations with adenocarcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas, no transcriptional relationship was found; instead LCNECs form distinct transcriptional subgroups with closest similarity to SCLC. While type I LCNECs and SCLCs exhibit a neuroendocrine profile with ASCL1high/DLL3high/NOTCHlow, type II LCNECs bear TP53 and RB1 alterations and differ from most SCLC tumors with reduced neuroendocrine markers, a pattern of ASCL1low/DLL3low/NOTCHhigh, and an upregulation of immune-related pathways. In conclusion, LCNECs comprise two molecularly defined subgroups, and distinguishing them from SCLC may allow stratified targeted treatment of high-grade neuroendocrine lung tumors.

Project description:BackgroundThe majority of genetic biomarkers for human cancers are defined by statistical screening of high-throughput genomics data. While a large number of genetic biomarkers have been proposed for diagnostic and prognostic applications, only a small number have been applied in the clinic. Similarly, the use of proteomics methods for the discovery of cancer biomarkers is increasing. The emerging field of proteogenomics seeks to enrich the value of genomics and proteomics approaches by studying the intersection of genomics and proteomics data. This task is challenging due to the complex nature of transcriptional and translation regulatory mechanisms and the disparities between genomic and proteomic data from the same samples. In this study, we have examined tumor antigens as potential biomarkers for breast cancer using genomics and proteomics data from previously reported laser capture microdissected ER+ tumor samples.ResultsWe applied proteogenomic analyses to study the genetic aberrations of 32 tumor antigens determined in the proteomic data. We found that tumor antigens that are aberrantly expressed at the genetic level and expressed at the protein level, are likely involved in perturbing pathways directly linked to the hallmarks of cancer. The results found by proteogenomic analysis of the 32 tumor antigens studied here, capture largely the same pathway irregularities as those elucidated from large-scale screening of genomics analyses, where several thousands of genes are often found to be perturbed.ConclusionTumor antigens are a group of proteins recognized by the cells of the immune system. Specifically, they are recognized in tumor cells where they are present in larger than usual amounts, or are physiochemically altered to a degree at which they no longer resemble native human proteins. This proteogenomic analysis of 32 tumor antigens suggests that tumor antigens have the potential to be highly specific biomarkers for different cancers.

Project description:The aim of our study was to identify gene expression profiles of ductal and lobular carcinomas in relation to normal ductal and lobular cells. We examined ten mastectomy specimens from postmenopausal breast cancer patients. Ductal and lobular tumor and normal cells were microdissected from cryosections. Fifty nanograms of total RNA were amplified and labeled by PCR and in vitro transcription. GCOS pairwise comparison algorithm and rank products have identified multiple genes that are differentially expressed in comparisons between ductal and lobular tumor and normal cell types. The results suggest that these genes are involved in epithelial-mesenchymal transition, TGFbeta and Wnt signaling. These changes are present in both tumor types but appear to be more prominent in lobular carcinomas. Ten surgical specimens obtained by mastectomy from postmenopausal patients with invasive ductal (IDC) and lobular breast (ILC) carcinomas were investigated. Of these, 5 were IDCs and 5 were ILCs. Tumor and normal tissues from the same mammary gland were identified by an experienced pathologist, snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80ºC for further analysis. Microdissection, RNA isolation, amplification, labeling and microarray analysis are described in sample definitions. Samples from particular cell types (normal ductal, normal lobular, tumor ductal, tumor lobular - 10, 10, 5, 5 samples, respectively) were considered as biological replicates and were compared in between.

Project description:This set of experiments includes 38 IDCs, 21 ILCs, 2 lymphnode metastases, and 3 normal breast samples. It is designed to compare gene expression profiles of IDCs and ILCs. Total RNAs from all samples were isolated using TRIzol, amplified using optimized T7 linear amplification protocol, and labeled with Cy5. Stratagen Universal Human Reference RNA was amplified the same way and labeled with Cy3. Set of arrays organized by shared biological context, such as organism, tumors types, processes, etc. Keywords: Logical Set

Project description:Invasive lobular breast cancer (ILC) is the second most common histological sub-type of breast cancer. Although the majority of ILC are strongly hormone receptor positive and are of low-intermediate grade, they present a number of clinical challenges. These challenges include limitations in physical exam and breast imaging for early detection, decreased response to chemotherapy and prospective evidence for differences in the benefit from specific adjuvant endocrine treatment regimens when compared to invasive ductal cancer (IDC). In addition to loss of e-cadherin, ILCs possess genetic alterations that are suggestive of a unique estrogen receptor(ER) axis, including an increase in the frequency of FOXA1 mutations and decrease in GATA3 truncating mutations. We performed a randomized Phase II clinical trial, Palbociclib and Endocrine therapy for LObular breast cancer Preoperative Study (PELOP), in which patients were stratified by histological subtype and found that the magnitude of the difference between the benefit from letrozole compared tamoxifen is significantly higher in ILC versus IDC. To elucidate the mechanism underlying this divergent response we comprehensively studied the ER axis in experimental models of ILC and IDC and clinical samples and show that ILC harbors a unique ER transcriptional axis that stems from increased FOXA1 chromatin binding and an altered chromatin state. These findings provide insights to the unique pattern of response to endocrine treatment in ILC and mechanisms of resistance to endocrine treatment, and offer new treatment strategies to improve outcomes for patients with this breast cancer subtype."
