Genomic data from 48 Asian gastric patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models, 7 Asian gastric patient tumors and the 8 corresponding normal tissues

ABSTRACT: There is a strong need to develop patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumor models for studying new treatment options for gastric cancer (GC). With low engraftment success, few collections of GC PDX have been reported and molecular basis of the model establishment remain largely unknown. Here we established n=27 PDX models from n=100 GC tumors and compared their characteristics to GC patient tumors based on the recent work done by ACRG and TCGA, to evaluate the representativeness and relevance of the collection for drug testing. We show that MSI, CIN and MSS/TP53- tumors were preferentially established as PDX, while MSS/EMT and EBV not and that PDX models retained histology and molecular subtypes of parental tumors. By using synapse database, we identified 48 druggable alterations that could be investigated with the collection. Counting alterations for these 48 genes in PDX compared to TCGA tumors revealed models frequently classified with heavily altered tumors but well preserved genomic alteration patterns specific of each GC subtype. The molecular analysis of n=8/27 tumors and corresponding PDX at passage P1, P2 and P3 revealed variations in somatic alteration content both at single nucleotide and chromosomal level in highly unstable MSI and CIN tumors, with changes occurring mainly at P1. In two cases, we show likely emergence of rare subclones carrying known oncogenic alterations in KRAS and PIK3CA. Significance. This study presents a resource of fully annotated GC PDX models for anticancer agent testing. We show that beside close resemblance of PDX with parental tumors, not all subtypes are established, and that the clonal selection plays a key role the establishment of certain tumors. This may have a bearing on translation of observations into the clinic and underline the need to frequently survey the molecular characteristics of the PDX models.

Project description:We compared the expression of genes related to inflammatory cytotoxic functions between MSI and MSS (HLA class I negative and positive) gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas (GIACs), seeking evidence of differences in inflammatory mediators and cytotoxic T-cell responses. Twenty-two GIACs were divided into three study groups as a function of HLA class I expression and MSI phenotype. Comparison between eight high-level MSI (MSI-H) and 8 MSS/HLA+ (control) cancers identified 2170 differentially expressed genes (p< 0.05) after microarray analysis on the Affymetrix HG-U133-Plus-PM plate. We grouped genes in Gene Ontology functional categories: apoptotic programme (119 genes, p=5.1·10-7), leukocyte activation (32 genes, p=0.01), T cell activation (20 genes, p= 0.01), and cytokine production (19 genes, p= 0.04). Real-time RT-PCR and immunohistochemical evaluation were used to confirm some microarray data, finding that increased mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines and cytotoxic mediators were associated with greater infiltration by CD8+ T lymphocytes in the MSI-H group (p<0.001). Finally, tumours with immunohistochemical HLA class I negative pattern were not grouped together but rather in accordance with features of the gene expression profile of MSI or MSS tumours. As expected, genes associated with antigen processing machinery and MHC class I molecules (TAP2, B2m) were downregulated in MSS/HLA-ABC negative CRCs. In conclusion, microarray and immunohistochemical data may be useful to comprehensively assess tumour-host interactions and differentiate MSI from MSS cancers. The two types of tumours, MSI/HLA- and MSS/HLA-, showed marked differences in the composition and intensity of infiltrating leukocytes, suggesting that their immune escape strategies involve distinct pathways. Case-control study. Samples were selected according to immunological criteria: those with total loss of HLA antigens and those without alterations in the expression of HLA molecules. In addition, the microsatellite instability genotype of all the samples was also analyzed, resulting in microsatellite stability (MSS) and microsatellite instability (MSI) samples. Therefore, three groups of samples were selected: MSS/HLA+, MSS/HLA-, and MSI. The MSS/HLA+ group was used as the control.

Project description:Samples were taken from colorectal cancers in surgically resected specimens in 33 colorectal cancer patients. The expression profiles were determined using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. Comparison between the sample groups allow to identify a set of discriminating genes that can be used for molecular markers for CIN phynotype Specimens from 33 consecutive stage II and stage III patients who had undergone surgical resection of CRC were studied. Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis and HNPCC were excluded from the study. Specimens from tumors and corresponding normal tissues in surgically resected specimens were snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80degreesC until use. Parallel tumor specimens were formalin fixed and paraffin embedded for histological examination. DNA and RNA was extracted from paired tumor and normal tissue using frozen samples. The patients provided written, informed consent to the collection of specimens, and the local Ethics Committee approved the study protocol. MSI and LOH phenotype analysis were done as follows; Using DNA, we performed the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and determined the MSI status. In addition to five microsatellite markers recommended by the National Cancer Institute workshop, we also used TP53, D18S46, D18S363 and D18S474.9 We determined LOH status in non–MSI-high tumors, because LOH is rare in MSI-high tumors and also interpretation of LOH is difficult in MSI-high tumors. We defined LOH at each locus as a 50% reduction in the height of one of two allele peaks in tumor DNA relative to non-neoplastic control DNA. LOH was defined as present if any of the markers on the same chromosome show LOH. In order to evaluate the severity of chromosomal instability based on the actual frequency of LOH among evaluable loci, we defined the LOH Ratio (%) as: LOH Ratio (%) = Total number of chromosomes with LOH / Total number of chromosomes that could be evaluated for LOH × 100. Depending on the LOH Ratio, we classified tumors as having high levels of chromosomal instability (CIN-high) (33% < LOH Ratio < 100%) or low levels of chromosomal instability (CIN-low) (0% < LOH Ratio <33%). Furthermore, CIN-high tumors were divided into two subgroups; CIN-high (mild type) (33% < LOH Ratio < 75%) and CIN-high (severe type) (75% < LOH Ratio <100%).
