Project description:Learn about the transcriptome profiling of zona glomerulosa (ZG), zona fasciculata (ZF) and aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA) in human adrenals 21 pairs of zona fasciculata (ZF) and zona glomerulosa (ZG), and 14 paired aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) from 14 Conn’s syndrome patients and 7 phaeochromocytoma patients were assayed on the Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array. Laser capture microdissection was used to acquire samples of ZF, ZG and APA as previously described (Azizan EA, et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2012;97:E819-E829). For differentiation of ZG from ZF, sections were stained with cresyl violet using the LCM Staining Kit (AM1935, Ambion, USA). Data processing and analysis was performed using AffymetrixGeneChip Command Console Software and PartekGenomicSuite 6.5 (Partek Inc., St. Louis, MO). Gene expressions were portrayed as the summarized log-signal of the Robust Multichip Average (RMA) with quantilenormalisation and median polish for probe set summarisation. Validation by qPCR was performed on genes >10 fold up-regulated in zona glomerulosa (compared to zona fasciculata) and >10 fold up-regulated in aldosterone-producing adenomas (compared to zona glomerulosa).

Project description:Primary aldosteronism (PA) is the most common endocrine hypertension comprising 10% of hypertensive patients. A recent series of transcriptome analyses using DNA microarray has shown that neumerous genes are differentially expressed between aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) and its adjacent adrenal gland (AAG) tissue from the same patient. However, the molecular mechanism(s) of pathogenesis of APA has not yet been fully clarified. Although growing body of evidence has shown that epigenetic abnormalities including DNA methylation play a key role in tumorigenesis, there are few studies with regard to DNA methylation in APA. In the present study, to elucidate the pathogenic relationship between gene expression and DNA methylation in PA, we conducted an integrated analysis of transcriptome and methylome data for paired APA-AAG samples from the same patient. Adrenal specimens were obtained from 7 Japanese patients with APA, who underwent adrenalectomy at Tokyo Medical and Dental University. RNA and DNA samples were extracted from those 7 paired APA and AAG tissues. Gene expression and genome-wide DNA methylation profiles were obtained using SurePrint G3 Human GE 8x60K Microarray (Agilent) and Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip (Illumina), respectively. Transcriptome anlaysis identified 244 significantly (2 fold<) upregulated genes in APA compared to AAG. The upregulated genes include the previously studied genes such as PCP4, ALDH1A2, and CYP11B2, and other genes that have not been previously studied, such as HOXA9, HOXA11, and HOXB9. Gene ontology (GO) analysis for these upregulated genes identified the calcium signaling pathway to be most significantly enriched with the upregulated genes (8 genes). Methylome analysis revealed that APA was globally hypomethylated compared to AAG regardless of gene feature groups, namely, TSS1500, TSS200, 5’UTR, 1stExon, gene body, and 3’UTR. GO analysis for the genes showing hypomethylation at TSS1500/TSS200 regions in APA identified the term “cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction” to be most significantly enriched with hypomethylated genes (37 genes). Integrated analysis of gene expression and genome-wide DNA methylation profiles identified 18 genes that are upregulated and whose TSS1500/TSS200 regions are hypomethylated in APA compared to AAG. These genes include CYP11B2 and MC2R (ACTH receptor). In conclusion, this is the first genome-wide study for PA that integrated transcriptome and methylome data. Global DNA hypomethylation in APA and concordant transcriptional up-regulation of some key genes, such as CYP11B2 and MC2R, may play crucial roles in the pathophysiological significance in PA.

Project description:Microarray study of aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA) and their adjacent normal adrenal glands
| PRJNA659530 | ENA
Project description:The source of aldosterone in 30 to 40 % of patients with primary hyperaldosteronism (PA) is unilateral aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA). The mechanisms causing elevated aldosterone production in APA are unknown. Herein, we examined expression of G-protein coupled receptors (GPCR) in APA and demonstrate that compared to normal adrenals there is a general elevation of certain GPCR in many APA and/or ectopic expression of GPCR in others. RNA samples from normal adrenals (n = 5), APAs (n = 10), and cortisol-producing adenomas (CPAs) (n=13) were used on 15 genomic expression arrays, each of which included 223 GPCR transcripts presented in at least one out of 15 of the independent microarrays. The array results were confirmed using real-time RT-PCR (qPCR). Four GPCR transcripts exhibited a statistically significant increase that was greater than 3-fold compared to normal adrenals, suggesting a general increase in expression compared to normal adrenal glands. Four GPCR transcripts exhibited a greater than 15-fold increase of expression in one or more of the APA samples compared to normal adrenals. qPCR analysis confirmed array data and found the receptors with the highest fold increase in APA expression to be luteinizing hormone receptor (LH-R), serotonin receptor 4 (HTR4), gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor (GnRHR), glutamate receptor metabotropic 3 (GRM3), endothelin receptor type B-like protein (GPR37), and ACTH receptor (MC2R). There are also sporadic increased expressions of these genes in the CPAs. Together, these findings suggest a potential role of altered GPCR expression in many cases of PA and provide candidate GPCR for further study. Keywords: disease state analysis

Project description:Primary aldosteronism is frequently caused by an adrenocortical aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) carrying a somatic mutation that drives aldosterone overproduction. APAs with a mutation in KCNJ5 (APA-KCNJ5MUT) are characterized by heterogeneous CYP11B2 (aldosterone synthase) expression, a particular cellular composition and larger tumor diameter than those with wild-type KCNJ5 (APA-KCNJ5WT). Here, we used spatial transcriptomics profiling of adrenal tissue cryosections to define the role of transcriptomic reprogramming in APA pathophysiology. Our findings advance the understanding of the transcriptional context of inter- and intra-tumoral APA heterogeneity and provide novel insight into the genotype-dependent tumor expansion capabilities of APAs.

Project description:Analysis of aldosterone-producing adenoma (APA) samples from patients with primary hyperaldosteronism. These APAs have a somatic mutation in either KCNJ5, CACNA1D, or ATP1A1. Results provide insight into the different mechanisms each mutation may cause leading to elevated aldosterone production in APA. In this dataset, we include expression data from aldosterone-producing adenomas (APAs) with a somatic mutation in either KCNJ5, CACNA1D, or ATP1A1. These data are used to obtain differentially expressed genes between KCNJ5 mutant APAs and CACNA1D/ATP1A1 mutant APAs.
