Molecular Signature of Saudi Thyroid Cancer Using whole exome sequencing

ABSTRACT: In Saudi Arabia, thyroid cancer ranked second only to breast cancer among females, eleventh among males and this increased incidence is prevalent in other Gulf Council Countries also. Differentiated thyroid cancer, which includes papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and follicular subtypes, accounts for 90% of all thyroid malignancies. Currently, there are no clinical or molecular diagnostic tools to predict recurrence and aggressiveness of a subset of PTC. With the goal of better understanding the pathobiology of thyroid carcinogenesis we will use Whole Exome Sequencing to decipher the molecular and genetic signature of Saudi PTC based on International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC) Guidelines. The study will provide a better understanding of PTC and should have important clinical implications in the development of new and better strategies for targeted therapeutic intervention for the treatment of Saudi Arabian PTC

Transcriptomic analysis of breast cancer

Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of fresh breast cancer tissue versus normal tissues. The Study comprising 45 Saudi-Arabian subjects was designed to take advantage of transcriptomics to prospectively explore the roles of lifestyle and genetic susceptibility in the occurrence of breast cancer. Total RNA isolated from 45 surgically resected breast cancer tissues and 8 healthy breast tissues (3 from Affymetrix) and purified, labeled, and hybridized to Affymetrix Human Gene 1.0 ST Array.

Genomic Profiling of Thyroid Cancer Reveals a Role for Thyroglobulin in Metastasis -Part II

Project description:Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) has a wide geographic variation in incidence, being highest in Saudi Arabia where it is only second to breast cancer as the most common cancer among females. Genomic profiling of PTC from Saudi Arabia has not been attempted previously. We performed whole-exome sequencing of 101 PTC samples and the corresponding genomic DNA to identify genes with recurrent somatic mutations, followed by sequencing of these genes using a next-generation gene panel approach in further 785 samples. In addition to BRAF, N-RAS and H-RAS, which have previously been shown to be recurrently mutated in PTC, our analysis highlights additional genes, including thyroglobulin (TG), which harbored somatic mutations in 3% of the entire cohort. Surprisingly, although TG mutations were not exclusive to mutations in the RAS-MAP kinase pathway, their presence was associated with a significantly worse clinical outcome, which suggests a pathogenic role beyond driving initial oncogenesis. Analysis of metastatic PTC tissue revealed significant enrichment for TG mutations (p<0.001), including events of apparent clonal expansion. Our results suggest a previously unknown role of TG somatic mutations in the pathogenesis of PTC and its malignant evolution.

Dissecting the transcriptomic landscape of the human papillary thyroid carcinoma by single cell RNA-sequencing

Project description:Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common malignant phenotype of thyroid cancer, with a rapidly increasing number of new cases globally. Multifocality is a common phenomenon in patients with PTC. The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in cancer progression in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), yet the composition and phenotype of cells within TME in bilateral PTCs are poorly understood.

Microarray Expression Analysis of Circular RNAs in papillary thyroid carcinoma.

Project description:CircRNA deregulation could be a crucial event in thyroid carcinoma. To investigate circRNA signatures present in several papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) patients to complement our understanding of PTC pathogenesis. Using microarray technology, we screened the circRNA profiles in 3 pairs of PTC tumors and matching adjacent normal tissues. This study evaluated circRNAs expression profiles and their ability to serve as reliable biomarkers and new potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets for PTC

In-depth analysis of differential protein expression in patients greater than 45 years old with papillary thyroid cancer through quantitative proteomics

Project description:Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) accounts for the predominant histological types of all thyroid cancers. Additionally, 15% PTC with LNM are unfortunately associated with increased radioiodine resistance, distant metastasis, recurrence and increased mortality. Additionally, 15% PTC with LNM are unfortunately associated with increased radioiodine resistance, distant metastasis, recurrence and increased mortality.Two proteomics research has been implemented to investigate the molecular mechanisms involved in pathogenesis of PTC patients younger than 45 years with LNM and identified several candidate biomarker.However, until now there is no study to comprehensively investigate the differential expressed proteins (DEPs) in PTC patients older than age 45 years.

MiRNA expression patterns in anaplastic thyroid cancer and papillary thyroid cancer cell lines

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a rare but deadly thyroid cancer. In contrast, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is common and highly curable. Minimally invasive biomarkers are needed to distinguish ATC and PTC. Here, by small RNA-seq we show the differential expression levels of several miRNAs, which include miR-34a and miR-210 in ATC compared to PTC cell lines.
