Project description:We profiled the gene expression of 11 anaplastic thyroid carcinomas (ATC), 49 papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) and 45 normal thyroids (N) We hibridized a series of anaplastic thyroid carcinomas (ATC) and papillary thyroid carcinomas (PTC) onto Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. ATCs were obtained from different hospitals in France and Belgium. Paired RNA samples of PTCs and non-tumoral thyroid tissues were obtained from Ukraine via the Chernobyl Tissue Bank (www.chernobyltissuebank.com). Diagnoses were confirmed by the members of the International Pathology Panel of the Chernobyl Tissue Bank.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is a rare but deadly thyroid cancer. In contrast, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is common and highly curable. Minimally invasive biomarkers are needed to distinguish ATC and PTC. Here, by small RNA-seq we show the differential expression levels of several miRNAs, which include miR-34a and miR-210 in ATC compared to PTC cell lines.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) has among the worst prognosis of any solid malignancy. The low incidence of the disease has in part precluded systematic clinical trials and tissue collection, and there has been little progress in developing effective therapies. BRAF and TP53 mutations co-occur in a high proportion of ATC, particularly those associated with a precursor papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). In order to develop an adult-onset model of BRAF-mutant anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, we generated a novel thyroid-specific CreER transgenic mouse. We utilize a Cre-regulated BrafV600E mouse and a conditional Trp53 allelic series to demonstrate that p53 constrains progression from papillary to anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. Gene expression and immunohistochemical analyses of murine tumors identified the cardinal features of human ATC including loss of differentiation, local invasion, distant metastasis and rapid lethality. We employed small animal ultrasound imaging to monitor autochthonous tumors, and show that treatment with the selective BRAF inhibitor PLX4720 improved survival, but did not lead to tumor regression or suppress signaling through the MAPK pathway. Combination of PLX4720 and the MEK inhibitor PD0325901 more completely suppressed MAPK pathway activation in mouse and human ATC cell lines, and improved the structural response and survival of ATC-bearing animals. This model expands the limited repertoire of autochthonous models of clinically aggressive thyroid cancer, and these data suggest that small molecule MAPK pathway inhibitors hold clinical promise in the treatment of advanced thyroid carcinoma. Total RNA from five murine papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) tumors and five murine anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) tumors was analyzed.

Project description:The E3 SUMO ligase PIAS2 is expressed at high levels in differentiated papillary thyroid carcinomas but at low levels in anaplastic thyroid carcinomas (ATC), an undifferentiated cancer with very high mortality. Double-stranded RNA–directed RNA interference (dsRNAi) targeting the PIAS2 isoform beta (PIAS2b) inhibits growth of ATC cell lines and patient primary cultures in vitro and orthotopic patient-derived xenografts (oPDX) in vivo, but not of thyroid cell lines or non-anaplastic primary thyroid cultures (differentiated carcinoma, benign lesions, or normal). PIAS2b-dsRNAi also has an anti-cancer effect on other anaplastic human cancers (pancreas, lung, and gastric). Mechanistically, PIAS2b is required for proper mitotic spindle and centrosome assembly, and it is a dosage-sensitive protein in ATC. Strikingly, PIAS2b-dsRNAi induces mitotic catastrophe at prophase. High-throughput proteomics revealed the proteasome (PSMC5) and spindle cytoskeleton as direct targets of PIAS2b SUMOylation at mitotic initiation. PIAS2b-dsRNAi is a promising therapy for ATC and other aggressive anaplastic cancers.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) is the most fatal and rapidly evolving endocrine malignancy invading the head and neck region and accounting for the majority of thyroid cancer-associated deaths. Deregulation of microRNA (miRNA) expression promotes thyroid carcinoma progression by modulating reorganization of the ATC transcriptome. Here, we applied comparative miRNA-/mRNA-sequencing in a cohort of 28 thyroid carcinomas to unravel the association of deregulated miRNA and mRNA expression. This identifies 85 miRNAs significantly deregulated in ATC. By establishing a new analysis pipeline we unravel 85 prime miRNA-mRNA interactions supporting the downregulation of candidate tumor-suppressors and upregulation of bona fide oncogenes like survivin (BIRC5) in ATC. This miRNA-dependent reprogramming of the ATC transcriptome provides a mRNA signature comprising 65 genes sharply distinguishing ATC from other thyroid carcinomas. Validation of deregulated protein expression in an independent thyroid carcinoma cohort demonstrates that miRNA-dependent oncogenes comprised in this signature, the transferrin receptor TFRC (CD71) and the E3-ubiquitin ligase DTL, are sharply upregulated in ATC. This upregulation is even sufficient to distinguish ATC from partially differentiated thyroid carcinomas (PDTC). In sum, these findings provide new diagnostic tools and a robust resource to explore key miRNA-mRNA regulation underlying the progression of thyroid carcinoma.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinomas (ATC) are rare, but represent the most lethal malignancy of the thyroid. Selective molecular markers and drivers distinguishing ATC from other thyroid carcinomas of follicular origin remain largely unknown, limiting advances in diagnosis and treatment. In a retrospective study, we analyzed gene expression in 36 ATC, 18 poorly-differentiated, 132 papillary and 55 follicular thyroid carcinoma, as well as 124 paired and un-paired normal thyroid tissues in three independent cohorts by RNA-sequencing and immunohistochemistry. RNA-sequencing data in the test cohort suggested selective ATC protein biomarkers. Evaluation of these revealed that ATCs are characterized by the de novo expression of various testis antigens, including melanoma-associated antigen A3 (MAGEA3), but most importantly the oncofetal IGF2 mRNA binding protein 1 (IGF2BP1). Shallow whole genome-sequencing essentially excluded, that IGF2BP1 upregulation results from gene copy number alterations. Immunohistochemical analyses in all three tumor cohorts confirmed selective de novo expression of IGF2BP1 protein in ATC. In sum, 75 % (27/36) of all tested ATC and 0.5 % (1/204) of poorly and well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma tissue samples were positive for IGF2BP1 protein. This indicates that IGF2BP1 protein expression identifies ATC with a diagnostic odds ratio of 612 (95 % CI: 74.6 to 5021). In addition, we found that MAGEA3 is exclusively, although less consistently upregulated in ATC, presenting with an odds ratio of 411 (95 % CI: 23.8 to 7098.7). Importantly, we provide confirmatory evidence that IGF2BP1 and MAGEA3 expression distinguishes ATC from partially differentiated thyroid carcinomas (PDTCs). IGF2BP1 furthermore identified ATC foci within low-grade follicular thyroid carcinoma. In conclusion, IGF2BP1 represents the most promising single-gene marker available for ATC, followed by MAGEA3, improving on current techniques. Robust markers are essential to help distinguish this high-grade malignancy from other thyroid carcinomas, to guide surgical decision making, therapy and post-resection/therapy monitoring strategies.
