Project description:The involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cancer and their potential as biomarkers of diagnosis, prognosis and response to therapy is becoming increasingly appreciated. The etiology of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is predominantly associated with the synergistic effects of tobacco and alcohol use, as well as Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection, which embodies a distinct clinical and biological phenotype. We sought to examine whether the profile of miRNAs in HNSCC varies based on HPV status, and to identify specific miRNAs altered in head and neck carcinogenesis. Total RNA was isolated from 16 HNSCC fresh frozen primary tumors, 5 fresh frozen non-diseased head and neck epithelial tissues, and 2 HNSCC cell lines. The miRNA profile of 662 individual miRNAs in these tissues was examined by microarray. 18 miRNAs are significantly altered in their expression between normal tissues and HNSCC tumors and 5 miRNAs are identified as significantly differentially expressed between HPV-positive (HPV+) and HPV-negative (HPV-) tumors. A striking difference in expression pattern of miRNA was also observed between primary tissues and cell lines. These data suggest that the pattern of miRNA expression may be reflective of disease etiology, and may be useful in the realm of diagnostic biomarkers defining broadly responsive prevention and treatment strategies for HNSCC. These data also suggest that cultured tumor cell lines may be inappropriate for novel miRNA biomarker identification.

Project description:Previously, we have shown that copy number gain of the chromosomal band 16q24.3 is associated with impaired clinical outcome of radiotherapy-treated head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) patients. We set out to identify a prognostic mRNA signature from genes located on 16q24.3 in radio(chemo)therapy-treated HNSCC patients of the TCGA (The Cancer Genome Atlas, n = 99) cohort. We applied stepwise forward selection using expression data of 41 16q24.3 genes. The resulting optimal Cox-proportional hazards regression model included the genes APRT, CENPBD1, CHMP1A, and GALNS. Afterward, the prognostic value of the classifier was confirmed in an independent cohort of HNSCC patients treated by adjuvant radio(chemo)therapy (LMU-KKG cohort). The signature significantly differentiated high- and low-risk patients with regard to overall survival (HR = 2.01, 95% CI 1.10-3.70; P = 0.02125), recurrence-free survival (HR = 1.84, 95% CI 1.01-3.34; P = 0.04206), and locoregional recurrence-free survival (HR = 1.87, 95% CI 1.03-3.40; P = 0.03641). The functional impact of the four signature genes was investigated after reconstruction of a gene association network from transcriptome data of the TCGA HNSCC cohort using a partial correlation approach. Subsequent pathway enrichment analysis of the network neighborhood (first and second) of the signature genes suggests involvement of HNSCC-associated signaling pathways such as apoptosis, cell cycle, cell adhesion, EGFR, JAK-STAT, and mTOR. Furthermore, a detailed analysis of the first neighborhood revealed a cluster of co-expressed genes located on chromosome 16q, substantiating the impact of 16q24.3 alterations in poor clinical outcome of HNSCC. The reported gene expression signature represents a prognostic marker in HNSCC patients following postoperative radio(chemo)therapy.

Project description:Distant metastasis is a major factor associated with poor prognosis in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), but little is known of its molecular mechanisms. New markers that predict clinical outcome, in particular the ability of primary tumors to develop metastatic tumors, are urgently needed. Here, we identified neurotensin, highly expressed in HNSCCs in comparison with normal tissues, as an invasion-promoting factor in HNSCC by using microarray analysis of clinical samples. Indeed, neurotensin overexpression associated with lymph node metastasis of neck, and tumors exhibiting neurotensin overexpression had a poor distant metastasis-free survival rate. In HNSCC cells which expressed neurotensin receptor 1 (NTSR1), neurotensin promoted cellular invasion, migration, and induction of matrix metalloproteinases transcripts. Disruption of NTSR1 signaling by silencing RNA caused the reversion of the invasion of HNSCC cells. By further microarray analysis using neurotensin-treated cells, neurotensin caused increased expression of genes implicated in tumor progression and metastasis including cell growth, migration, invasion, adhesion, angiogenesis, and apoptosis. Our findings have revealed a critical role of neurotensin/NTSR1 for invasion and migration in the metastatic process of HNSCC. This study raises the possibility that neurotensin/NTSR1 could be used as a possible predictive marker and a molecular therapeutic target in the antimetastatic strategies of HNSCC.

Keywords: Identification of a novel therapeutic target for head and neck squamous cell carcinomas A total of 21 primary HNSCC samples were obtained from patients who underwent tumor resection at Chiba University Hospital (Chiba, Japan). 21 samples of normal-appearing mucosa at the margin of the surgical resection several centimeters from the tumor were also collected and designated histologically normal mucosa. 21 HNSCCs and paired normal tissues were used for microarray experiment. The clinicopathological grade was classified according to the criteria of the Japan Society for Head and Neck Cancer. The Ethics Committee of Chiba University approved our study, and informed consent was obtained from all patients for use of their tissue samples and clinical data. Tissue samples were immediately snap frozen in liquid nitrogen and stored at -80°C until use.

Project description:Gene expression profiles of human HNSCC lines were compared with human normal keratinocytes by 24K cDNA microarray. The ten HNSCC analyzed are derived by the University of Michigan (UM-SCC), representing late stage SCC of different anatomic sites. Principle component analysis and hierarchical gene clustering classified ten cancer cell lines into two subsets, and associated each of the subsets with a distinctive p53 status.
