Chromothripsis drives DNA amplification in cancer cells developing drug resistance

ABSTRACT: Gene amplification leading to increased oncogene expression or anticancer drug resistance is a frequent event in cancer. Cytogenetic, genomic, and transcriptomic analyses were used to determine the initiating events of gene amplification in a tunable cell culture system developing resistance to chemotherapy. Chromosome shattering (chromothripsis) was found to be a major resistance driver through the production of extra-chromosomal double minutes either directly or subsequent to formation of a homogenous staining region (HSR). Formation and maintenance of double minutes were enhanced by PARP and DNA-PK activities. Double minutes were found to be highly dynamic, undergoing structural evolution to produce increased drug tolerance or re-integration into ectopic chromosomes under conditions of DNA damage. Genome rearrangement profiles produced through acquired drug resistance are similar to human cancer examples with oncogene amplification. Thus, chromothripsis is a driver of genome evolution that enables rapid acquisition of tolerance to altered growth conditions.

Genome sequencing of childhood medulloblastoma brain tumors links chromothripsis with TP53 mutations

Project description:Genomic rearrangements typically occur progressively during tumor development. Recent findings, however, suggest an alternative mechanism, involving chromosome shattering and reshuffling ('chromothripsis'), for which no genetic basis has yet been described. Whole-genome sequencing of a Sonic-Hedgehog medulloblastoma (SHH-MB) brain tumor from a patient with a germline TP53 mutation (Li-Fraumeni syndrome) revealed massive, complex rearrangements resulting from chromothripsis. Integrating TP53 status with genomic rearrangement data in additional medulloblastomas revealed a striking association between TP53 mutation and chromothripsis in SHH-MBs. Unexpectedly, five seemingly sporadic SHH-MB patients with chromothripsis harbored TP53 germline mutations – findings relevant for clinical management. Analysis of additional tumor entities substantiated a link between TP53 mutation and chromothripsis, beyond general genomic instability. Among these, we observed a strong association between somatic TP53 mutations and chromothripsis in acute myeloid leukemia. These findings implicate p53 in the initiation of, or cellular reaction to, chromothripsis – a novel role for the 'guardian of the genome'.

Analysis of copy number changes in primary and metastatic colorectal cancer samples

Project description:Structural rearrangements form a major class of somatic variation in cancer genomes. Local chromosome shattering, termed chromothripsis, is a mechanism proposed to be the cause of clustered chromosomal rearrangements and was recently described to occur in a small percentage of tumors. The significance of these clusters for tumor development or metastatic spread is largely unclear. We used genome-wide long mate-pair sequencing and SNP array profiling to reveal that chromothripsis is a widespread phenomenon in primary colorectal cancer and metastases. We find large and small chromothripsis events in nearly every colorectal tumor sample and show that several breakpoints of chromothripsis clusters and isolated rearrangements affect cancer genes, including NOTCH2, EXO1 and MLL3. We complemented the structural variation studies by sequencing the coding regions of a cancer exome in all colorectal tumor samples and found somatic mutations in 24 genes, including APC, KRAS, SMAD4 and PIK3CA. A pairwise comparison of somatic variations in primary and metastatic samples indicated that in many chromothripsis clusters, isolated rearrangements and point mutations are exclusively present in either the primary tumor or the metastasis and may affect cancer genes in a lesion-specific manner. We conclude that chromothripsis is a prevalent mechanism driving structural rearrangements in colorectal cancer and show that a complex interplay between point mutations, simple copy number changes and chromothripsis events drive colorectal tumor development and metastasis.

Genome Position and Gene Amplification

Project description:Amplifications, regions of focal high level copy number change, lead to overexpression of oncogenes or drug resistance genes in tumors. Their presence is often associated with poor prognosis; however the use of amplification as a mechanism for overexpression of a particular gene in tumors varies. To investigate the influence of genome position on propensity to amplify, we integrated a mutant form of DHFR into different positions in the human genome, challenged cells with methotrexate and then studied the genomic alterations arising in drug resistant cells. We observed site specific differences in methotrexate sensitivity, organization of amplicons and amplification frequency. One site was uniquely associated with a significantly enhanced propensity to amplify and recurrent amplicon boundaries, possibly implicating a rare folate sensitive fragile site in initiating amplification. Hierarchical clustering of gene expression patterns and subsequent gene enrichment analysis revealed two clusters differing significantly in expression of MYC target genes independent of integration site. These studies suggest that genome context together with the particular challenges to genome stability experienced during the progression to cancer contribute to the propensity to amplify a specific oncogene or drug resistance gene, whereas the overall functional response to drug (or other) challenge may be independent of the genomic location of an oncogene. Keywords: Gene amplification, array CGH, chromosomal fragile sites

Chromothripsis is a frequent event and underlies typical genetic changes in early T-cell precursor lymphoblastic leukemia in adults [SNP]

Project description:Chromothripsis is a mitotic catastrophe that arises from multiple double strand breaks and incorrect re-joining of one or a few chromosomes. We report on incidence, distribution, and features of chromothriptic events in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (T-ALL). Chromothripsis was detected in 11.6% of analyzed T-ALL and occurred only in adult cases with an immature phenotype (30%). It affected 1 to 4 chromosomes, and recurrently involved chromosomes 1, 6, 7, and 17. Abnormalities of genes typically associated with T-ALL were found at breakpoints of chromothripsis. In addition, it gave rise to new/rare alterations, such as, the SFPQ::ZFP36L2 fusion, reported in pediatric T-ALL, deletions of putative suppressors, such as IKZF2 and CSMD1, and amplification of the BCL2 gene. Compared to negative cases, chromothripsis positive T-ALL had a significantly higher level of MYCN expression, and a significant downregulation of RGCC, which is typically induced by TP53 in response to DNA damage. Furthermore we identified mutations and/or deletions of DNA repair/genome stability genes in all cases, and an association with NUP214 rearrangements in 33% of cases.
