Global gene expression analysis of primary head and neck cancer cases

ABSTRACT: This study addressed the assumption that in addition to somatic mutations epigenetic silencing of cancer-related genes by promoter hyper-methylation is a common event in head and neck cancer. A multi-scale omics approach based on whole-exome sequencing, global DNA methylation and gene expression profiling data derived from tumor samples of the HIPO-HNC cohort was conducted and new findings were confirmed with data from TCGA-HNC. Results provide experimental evidence that the ryanodine receptor 2 (RYR2) exhibits variable promoter methylation and expression in both tumor samples and HNSCC cell lines. Moreover, immunohistochemical staining of tissue sections unraveled a gradual loss of RYR2 expression from normal mucosa via dysplastic lesions to cancer, and indicated that reduced RYR2 expression in adjacent tissue and precancer lesions might serve as a risk factor for unfavorable prognosis and upcoming malignant conversion.

Heart failure-induced cognitive dysfunction is mediated by intracellular Ca2+ leak through ryanodine receptor type 2.

Project description:Cognitive dysfunction (CD) in heart failure (HF) adversely affects treatment compliance and quality of life. Although, ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) has been linked to cardiac muscle dysfunction, its role in CD remains unclear. Here, we show in hippocampal neurons from patients and mice with HF that the ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2)/intracellular Ca 2+ release channels were post-translationally modified (PTM) and leaky. RyR2 PTM was caused by hyper-adrenergic stress and activation of the transforming growth factor (TGF-β) pathway. HF mice treated with either a RyR2 stabilizer drug (S107), beta-blocker (propranolol) or TGF-β inhibitor (SD-208), or mice insensitive RyR2 Ca 2+ leak (RyR2-S2808A), were protected against HF-induced CD. Taken together, we propose that HF is a systemic illness that include cardiogenic dementia, and intracellular Ca 2+ leak is a common effector in multiple components of HF.

Effect of high-dose cyclophosphamide gene expression profiles in cardiomyocytes of C57BL/6J mice

Project description:To clarify the mechanisms of cyclophosphamide (CY)-induced myocardial damage, we have analyzed the genome-wide expression profiles of C57BL/6J mice received CY, one of CY metabolites acrolein, and CY with N-acetyl cysteine (NAC). The microarray analysis revealed that the gene expression of L-type calcium channel (DHPR), ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2), and Troponin C (TnC) were suppressed by CY administration. DHPR, RyR2 and TnC are responsible for control of intracellular calcium ion concentration and important for myocardial contraction. On the other side, the gene expression profiles after administration of acrolein differed from CY administration. Furthermore, the gene expression profiles after administration of NAC and CY, NAC did not inhibit the DHPR, RyR2 and TnC gene expression suppression.

Enhancing calmodulin binding to cardiac ryanodine receptor completely inhibits pressure-overload induced hypertrophic signaling

Project description:Purpose: Cardiac hypertrophy is a well-known major risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with cardiovascular diseases. Dysregulation of intracellular Ca2+ is involved in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy. However, the precise mechanism underlying cardiac hypertrophy remains elusive. Here, we investigated whether pressure-overload induced hypertrophy can be induced by destabilization of cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) through calmodulin (CaM) dissociation and subsequent Ca2+ leakage, and whether it can be genetically rescued by enhancing the binding affinity of CaM to RyR2. Methods: To examine the role of CaM-RyR2 complex in the development of pressure-overload induced cardiac hypertrophy, whole transcriptome analysis using RNA-seq analysis in the hearts from WT and homozygous RyR2V3599K/V3599K (V3599K) mice with or without transverse aortic constriction (TAC) was performed to elucidate the RyR2 signaling pathway in the heart. Results: Gene expression increased in WT (+TAC) hearts compared to WT (-TAC) hearts; however, this increase was not observed in V3599K (+TAC) hearts. Conclusions: Enhanced CaM binding to RyR2 decreased expression of hypertrophy-related genes.

Global analysis of DNA methylation changes during progression of oral tumorigenesis

Project description:Objectives: Earlier studies involving a priori gene selection have identified promoter regions deregulated by DNA methylation changes in oral squamous cell cancers (OSCCs) and precancers. Interrogation of global DNA methylation patterns for such specimens has not been reported, though such analyses are needed to uncover novel molecular factors driving disease. Materials and Methods: We evaluated global DNA methylation patterns for 30 biopsies obtained from 10 patients undergoing surgical removal of an OSCC or carcinoma in situ (CIS). From a disease field in each patient, we collected i) dysplastic, ii) CIS or OSCC, and iii) adjacent normal biopsies. DNA isolated from each biopsy was profiled for methylation status using the Illumina HumanMethylation27K platform. Results: Our data demonstrate that aberrant methylation of promoter CpG islands exists across oral precancer and OSCC genomes. Non-hierarchical clustering of all methylation data revealed distinct methylation patterns between the normal and the CIS/OSCC tissues (with results for dysplastic biopsies split between groups). Multiple genes exhibiting recurrent aberrant DNA methylation were found for both dysplastic and CIS/OSCC groups, and included enrichment for genes found in the WNT and MAPK signaling pathways. Conclusion: In identifying aberrant DNA methylation at the earliest stages of oral precancer and finding recurring epigenetic disruption of specific genes/pathways across our analyzed cohort, we conclude that CpG methylation changes are a hallmark of oral cancer progression and that global DNA methylation analyses are an essential component for wider studies seeking to derive biomarkers or potentially druggable targets for improving oral cancer outcomes. Bisulphite converted DNA from the 30 samples were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 27k Human Methylation BeadChip v1.2. Total RNA from 30 oral cancer samples were hybridized to Agilent 4x44k gene expression microarray.

FoxP3-mediated blockage of ryanodine receptor 2 is the molecular basis for the contact-based suppression by regulatory T cells

Project description:The suppression mechanism of regulatory T cells (Tregs) is an intensely investigated topic. As our focus has shifted towards a model centered on indirect inhibition of dendritic cells, a universally applicable effector mechanism controlled by the transcription factor forkhead box P3 (FoxP3) expression has not been found. Here, we report that FoxP3 blocks the transcription of ER Ca2+-release channel ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2). Reduced RyR2 shuts down basal Ca2+ oscillation in Tregs, which reduces m-Calpain activities that is needed for T cells to disengage from DCs, suggesting a persistent blockage of DC antigen presentation. RyR2 deficiency renders the CD4+ T cell pool to become immune suppressive, and behave in the same manner as FoxP3+ Tregs in viral infection, asthma, hypersensitivity, colitis and tumor development. In the absence of FoxP3, RyR2-deficient CD4+ T cells (CKO) rescue the systemic autoimmunity associated with Scurfy mice. Therefore, FoxP3-mediated Ca2+ signaling inhibition may be a central effector mechanism of Treg immune suppression.

Microbiome biomarkers for Improved Screening of Anal Cance

Project description:Anal cancer is a leading neoplasia in people with immune impartments populations, and the lack of an accurate screening test challenges its prevention. Because the bacteria living in the anal epithelium the anal microbiota seems to influence and be influenced by cancer development, specific patterns of anal microbes could help in the diagnosis of precancerous anal lesions. We aimed to discover microbial biomarkers of anal precancer in high-risk populations. We discovered 12 proteins, previously reported to be associated with cancer progression, that were more abundant in the anal bacterial from subjects with precancerous lesions.

Spatiotemporally Deciphering the Unknown Role of Persistent HPV Infection in Precancer to Cervical Cancer Progression: Integrating Single-Cell RNA-Sequencing Landscape and Spatial Transcriptomics Atlas [Spatial Transcriptomics]

Project description:The mechanism underlying the cervical carcinogenesis mediated by persistent HPV infection remains elusive. Here we pioneeringly deciphered both temporal transition and spatial distribution of the cellular subsets during the disease progression from normal cervix, precancer lesions to cervical cancer by integrating scRNA-seq with ST. We not only identified three ‘HPV-related epithelial clusters’ unique to normal, HSIL and cervical cancer respectively, but also discovered node genes which potentially determined the disease progression. Moreover, we observed a gradual transition of multiple immune cells from positive immune response to dysregulation and exhaustion, to an immune-suppressive microenvironment during the malignant program. Besides, the cellular interaction analysis further verified a ‘homeostasis-balance-malignancy’ change within cervix microenvironment during disease escalation. Together, these findings not only deciphered mysterious persistent HPV infection spatiotemporally from the process of precancer to cervical cancer but also provided unprecedented possibilities for accurate diagnosis, precise treatment and prognosis evaluation for precancer and cervical cancer.
