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 one of the most aggressive malignancy and accounts for the majority of thyroid cancer-related deaths. Despite intensive research, there remains no effective treatment for patients with ATC. Here, we identify THZ1, a covalent inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7), as a potent anti-ATC compound by high-throughput chemical screening. ATC cells, but not papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) cells, are exceptionally sensitive to CDK7 inhibition. Analyzing both gene expression profiles and super enhancer (SE) features reveals that the SE-mediated oncogenic transcriptional amplification renders the vulnerability of ATC cells to THZ1 treatment. Combining this integrative analysis with functional assays discovers a number of novel cancer genes of ATC, including PPP1R15A, SMG9 and KLF2. Inhibition of PPP1R15A with Guanabenz (GBZ) or Sephin1 greatly suppresses ATC growth. Significantly, the expression level of PPP1R15A is correlated with CDK7 expression in ATC tissue samples. Elevated expression of PPP1R15A and CDK7 are both associated with poor clinical prognosis in ATC patients. Importantly, GBZ or THZ1 treatment sensitizes ATC cells to conventional chemotherapy. Taken together, these findings demonstrate transcriptional addiction in ATC pathobiology and identify CDK7 and PPP1R15A as potential biomarkers and therapeutic targets for ATC.

Project description:Thyroid cancer ranks as the ninth most common cancer type in terms of incidence worldwide. Furthermore, the global incidence of thyroid cancer has been on the rise over the past decades.Spatial transcriptomics technology systematically profiles gene expression across tissue space by combing high-throughput RNA sequencing and imaging techniques. The applications of ST have revealed high-resolution spatial architecture and cellular crosstalk in many tumor types, advancing the discovery of new targets for diagnosis and therapy. However, the spatial architecture in thyroid cancer and the structural differences in the TME among papillary thyroid cancer (PTC), locally advanced thyroid cancer (LPTC), and Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) have been little investigated. Herein , we applied ST and scRNA-seq data to reveal the spatial difference of TME in PTC, LPTC, and ATC samples.
