Prebiotics in Rectal Cancer

ABSTRACT: A significant racial disparity in the incidence and mortality of CRC exists in the U.S. with African Americans having CRC incidence and mortality rates that are 20% and 40% higher than the general U.S. population. It has been demonstrated that the gut microbiome impacts tumor development and progression through multiple mechanisms, including impacting the tumoral immune response. However, it is unknown if microbiome modulating treatment can have an impact on CRC outcomes.

Cardiac DNA Methylation Underlies Racial and Socioeconomic Disparities among Patients with End-Stage Heart Failure (MethylationEPIC array)

Project description:African Americans (AA) are 70% more likely than Caucasian Americans (CA) to die from heart failure (HF) even after adjusting for known causes. Although the causal factors responsible for this racial disparity remain unknown, it is theorized that environmental stressors This alarming health disparity represents an important challenge to U.S. healthcare as global prevalence of heart failure has already exceeded epidemic levels with a disease burden that disproportionately impacts members of ethnic and racial minorities. The current multicohort study of cardiac DNA methylation identifies the cardiac epigenome as a previously unrecognized syntax that encodes race-based environmental differences in the failing human heart.

Molecular Disparities in Colorectal Cancers of White Americans, Alabama African Americans, and Oklahoma American Indians

Project description:In the US, the majority of cancer samples analyzed are from white people, leading to biases in racial and ethnic treatment outcomes. Colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence and mortality rates are high in Alabama African Americans (AAs) and Oklahoma American Indians (AIs). We hypothesized that differences between racial groups may partially explain these disparities. Thus, we compared transcriptomic profiles of CRCs of Alabama AAs, Oklahoma AIs, and white people from both states. Compared to CRCs of white people, CRCs of AAs showed (a) higher expression of cytokines and vesicle trafficking toward modulated antitumor-immune activity, and (b) lower expression of the ID1/BMP/SMAD axis, IL22RA1, APOBEC3, and Mucins; and AIs had (c) higher expression of PTGS2/COX2 (an NSAID target/pro-oncogenic inflammation) and splicing regulators, and (d) lower tumor suppressor activities (e.g., TOB2, PCGF2, BAP1). Therefore, targeting strategies designed for white CRC patients may be less effective for AAs/AIs. These findings illustrate needs to develop optimized interventions to overcome racial CRC disparities.

Molecular Dysregulation Underlying Racial Disparity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC)

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a highly fatal disease with mortality running parallel to its incidence. For HCC patients, there is a statistically significant increase in incidence and mortality and a decrease in 5-year survival rates in African American (AA)/Black patients compared to non-Hispanic (white) patients. There is a gap of knowledge in our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying the HCC racial disparity between AA/Black and white patients. To address this issue, we analyzed existing RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data from HCC patients in the TCGA database, and performed RNA-seq in 14 white and 19 AA/Black HCC patients from Virginia Commonwealth University. In both analysis the only pathway which showed statistically significant activation in AA/Black patients, compared to white patients, was type I interferon (IFN-I) signaling. A four gene signature of IFN-I-stimulated genes (ISGs) showed increased expression in AA/Black HCC tumors compared to their white counterparts. HCC is a disease of chronic inflammation and IFN-I function as a pro-inflammatory and immunosuppressive cytokine. These findings suggest a potential role of IFN-I in conferring disparity in AA/Black HCC patients.

Gene expression profiling of African American vs European American HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas

Project description:Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the fifth most common malignancy worldwide with an annual mortality rate of 200,000. About 90% of HNC can be classified as head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), of which approximately 75% are attributed to alcohol and tobacco consumption and 25% are associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), predominantly HPV16. HPV-associated OPC have better prognosis and a more favorable response to therapy as compared to HPV-negative tumors. Differences in risk factors, age of presentation, clinical behavior and gene expression profiles indicate that HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors develop via different molecular mechanisms and are biologically distinct. African American (AA) males have a higher incidence of HNC than any other racial/gender group, and a mortality rate almost three-fold that observed in European American (EA) males. Overall, AA patients tend to present with more HPV-negative OPC and have worse prognosis as compared to both HPV-positive and HPV-negative HNSCC in EA patients. Despite the unveiling of differential gene expression patterns, genetic and epigenetic profiles and the compilation of a mutational landscape along with preliminary TCGA data of HPV-related and unrelated HNC, the molecular determinants of the racial disparity in HNC are yet to be identified. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-negative HNSCC from AA and EA patients, and determine their biological differences. ANALYSIS 2: Two-condition, on-color experiment: African American (AA) vs European American (EA) HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas. Biological replicates: 8 African American and 8 European American.

Expression data for tumor and normal tissue samples from deceased sepsis and non-sepsis colorectal cancer patients

Project description:The mortality risk from cancer-associated sepsis is differentially affected by individual cancer sites and host responses to sepsis are heterogenous. Native Hawaiians have a 2-fold higher mortality risk from cancer-associated sepsis than Whites and also higher mortality risk from colorectal cancer (CRC). We investigated this disparity by examining ethnic variation in the transcriptome of patients with CRC-associated sepsis and its relation to survival and genetic diversity. We conducted transcriptomic profiling of CRC tumors and adjacent non-tumor tissue obtained from adult patients of Native Hawaiian and Japanese ethnicity who died from cancer-associated sepsis. We examined differential gene expression in relation to patient survival and sepsis disease etiology.

Clinical Assay for the Early Detection of Colorectal Cancer Using Mass Spectrometric Wheat Germ Agglutinin Multiple Reaction Monitoring

Project description:Colorectal cancer (CRC) is currently the third leading cause of cancer related mortality in the world. U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approval circulating tumor markers, including carcinoembryonic antigen, carbohydrate antigen (CA) 19-9 and CA125, were used as prognostic biomarker of CRC that attributed to low sensitivity in diagnosis of CRC. Therefore, our purpose is to develop a novel strategy for novel clinical biomarker for early CRC diagnosis. We used mass spectrometry (MS) methods such as nanoLC-MS/MS, targeted LC-MS/MS, and stable iso-tope-labeled multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) MS coupled to machine learning algorithms and logistic regression to analyze plasma samples from patients with early-stage CRC, late-stage CRC, and healthy controls (HCs).

microRNA expression in serum exosomes from Caucasian and African American breast cancer patients

Project description:There is drastic racial disparities between Caucasian (CA) and African American (AA) for breast cancer. Circulating microRNAs exhibit stability and may serve as biomarkers in clinical settings. To discover potential microRNAs that mediate intercellular crosstalk and as biomarkers underlying the breast cancer racial disparity, serum exosomes from CA and AA were extracted and analyzed for its microRNA contents using small RNA sequencing.
