Early and advanced gastric cancer genomes
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Early gastric cancers (EGC) precede advanced gastric cancers (AGC) with a favorable clinical outcome compared to advanced gastric cancers (AGC). To understand the progression mechanisms of EGC to AGC, it is required to disclose the EGC and AGC genomes in terms of the the mutational and evolutionary perspectives. In this study, we performed whole-exome sequencing and copy number profiling of nine microsatellite (MS)-unstable (MSI-H) (5 EGC and 4 AGC) and eight MS-stable (MSS) gastric cancers (4 EGC and 4 AGC). Unexpectedly, we observed no substantial differences in the number, sequence composition and functional consequences (potential driver mutations and affected pathways) of the mutations and CNAs between EGC and AGC genomes in both MSI-H and MSS cases.
