Random forest-based modelling to detect novel biomarkers for prostate cancer progression

ABSTRACT: The clinical course of prostate cancer (PCa) is highly variable, demanding an individualized approach to therapy and robust prognostic markers for treatment decisions. We here present a random forest-based classification model to predict aggressive behaviour of PCa. DNA methylation changes between PCa cases with good or poor prognosis (discovery cohort with n=78) were used as input. The model was validated with data from two independent PCa cohorts from ICGC and TCGA. Ranking of cancer progression-related DNA methylation changes allowed selection of candidate genes for additional validation by immunohistochemistry. We identified loss of ZIC2 protein expression as a promising novel prognostic biomarker for PCa in >12,000 tissue micro-array tumors. The prognostic value of ZIC2 proved to be independent from established clinico-pathological variables including Gleason, stage, nodal stage and PSA. In summary, we have developed a PCa classification model which either directly or via expression analyses of the identified top ranked candidate genes might help in decision making related to the treatment of prostate cancer patients.

Characterization of the human urine proteome in Prostate Cancer

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most prevalent cancers among men and the fifth leading cause of cancer-related death in men. Currently, PCa suspicion is based on abnormal digital rectal examination and/or raised PSA serum levels, with prostate needle biopsy being required for a definitive diagnosis. Histopathological classification of tumours based on GS grading, cancer staging and PSA levels are used to predict the indolent or aggressive progression of the tumour as well as the likelihood of disease recurrence. These diagnosis and prognosis tools for PCa have revealed limited usefulness, especially PSA testing, which despite organ-specificity is not cancer-specific, being associated with low specificity. In this vein, new markers have been proposed in order to increase the accuracy of PCa detection, most of them proteins. Despite the significant efforts that have been undertaken for discovering other biomarkers for PCa management, few were translated into clinical practice. The simple and non-invasive nature of urine collection along with its proteome stability and storing many secreted proteins of prostate origin, makes the identification of PCa urinary biomarkers an attractive approach. With this in mind, we aimed to compare the urinary proteome profile of PCa patients with non-cancer patients in order to identify non-invasive candidate biomarkers for PCa prediction. To fulfil this task, we followed a shotgun LC-MS/MS approach using an Orbitrap instrument. A combination of two different software packages, MaxQuant and Proteome Discover was used to increase the robustness of analysis and enhance the search for new biomarkers. Proteins quantification was based on a label-free quantification approach (false discovery rate (FDR) 1%). The present dataset was used to disclosure potential markers in PCa management.

Transcriptomic profiling of urine extracellular vesicles reveals alterations of CDH3 in prostate cancer

Project description:One of the challenges of current research in prostate cancer is to improve the differential non-invasive diagnosis of prostate cancer (PCa) and benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH). Extracellular vesicles (EV) are emerging structures with promising properties for intercellular communication. In addition, the characterization of EV in biofluids is an attractive source of non-invasive diagnostic, prognostic and predictive biomarkers. Here we show that urinary EV (uEV) from prostate cancer patients exhibit genuine and differential physical and biological properties. Importantly, transcriptomics characterization of uEVs led us to define the decreased abundance of Cadherin 3, type 1 (CDH3) transcript in uEV from PCa patients. Tissue and cell line analysis strongly suggested that the status of CDH3 in uEVs is a distal reflection of changes in the expression of this cadherin in the prostate tumor. Our results reveal that uEVs could represent a non-invasive tool to inform about the molecular alterations in prostate cancer. RNA extraction was performed in 10 ultracentrifuge-isolated-uEVs samples (4 BPH, 6 Pca)

DNA methylation profiling across six histological states of prostate cancer

Project description:In spite of its prevalence as one of the world’s leading malignancies, prostate cancer (PCa) continues to evade molecular taxonomic sub-classification. However, gross clinical differences are observed within the umbrella term ‘prostate adenocarcinoma’; the majority of tumors appear indolent in nature, whilst a subset manifest aggressively. Contributing factors towards this resistance to molecular classification are an atypically low mutation frequency and a poorly delineated pathobiology. Conversely, epigenetic changes are evidenced to be amongst the earliest and most-widespread aberrations in PCa . We thus hypothesized that delineating epigenomic alterations during the stepwise progression of PCa would improve our understanding of the disease pathobiology and the molecular underpinning of indolent and aggressive tumors. Herein, we report the first epigenomic roadmap of prostate tumorigenesis, in which we dissected DNA methylation and microRNA expression in enriched epithelial cells across the entire trajectory of PCa, through tumor initiation, primary disease and metastatic dissemination. Infinium Human Methylation450K Beachip (Illumina) technology was employed to assess the methylation status of >485,000 CpG sites throughout the genome across six histological stages of prostate cancer (PCa) tumorigenesis: benign (n=10), proliferative inflammatory atrophy (PIA; n=7), high grade prostatic intra-epithelial neoplasia (HGPIN; n=6), indolent PCa (PCI, n=7), agressive PCa (PCA; n=8) and lethal metastatic PCa (PCM; n=6). Three peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) samples were also included for control purposes.

Expression profiling of prostate cell lines by miRNA array

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignant carcinoma that develops in men in Western countries. Up to 30% of patients continue to suffer from disease progression following radical prostatectomy. Therefore, better prognostic markers and molecular targets for cancer treatment are needed. MicroRNA (miRNA) has the potential to be used as biomarkers and as a therapeutic target for the treatment of various cancers, including PCa. Here, to determine how miRNA is involved in PCa progression, we investigated the miRNA expression profiles of 3 PCa cell lines, namely PC3, DU145, and LNCaP, and 2 normal prostate cell lines, namely RWPE-1 and PrSc, using miRNA microarrays. We investigated miRNA genes that were significantly upregulated in PCa cell lines (PC3, DU145, LNCaP) compared with normal cell lines (RWPE-1, PrSc).

Multi-omic diagnostics of prostate cancer in the presence of benign prostatic hyperplasia

Project description:There is an unmet need for improved diagnostic testing and risk prediction for cases of prostate cancer (PCa) to improve care and reduce overtreatment of indolent disease. Here we have analysed the serum proteome and lipidome of 262 study participants by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, including participants with a diagnosis of PCa, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), or otherwise healthy volunteers, with the aim of improving biomarker specificity. Although a two-class machine learning model was able to separate PCa from controls with sensitivity of 0.82 and specificity of 0.95, adding BPH resulted in a statistically significant decline in specificity for prostate cancer to 0.76, with half of BPH cases being misclassified by the model as PCa. A small number of biomarkers differentiating between BPH and prostate cancer were identified, including proteins in MAP Kinase pathways, as well as in lipids containing oleic acid; these may offer a route to greater specificity. These results highlight, however, that whilst there are opportunities for machine learning, these will only be achieved by use of appropriate training sets that include confounding comorbidities, especially when calculating the specificity of a test.
