Project description:We aimed to provide a molecular description of Lynch syndrome-associated urothelial cancer in relation to molecular subtypes of sporadic bladder cancer. Whole genome mRNA expression profiles of 41 tumors and immunohistochemical stainings against FGFR3, KRT5, CCNB1, RB1, and CDKN2A (p16) of 37 tumors from Lynch syndrome patients were generated. Pathological data, microsatellite instability, anatomic location, and overall survival data was analyzed and compared with data from sporadic bladder cancer.

Project description:Lynch syndrome confers an increased risk for urothelial carcinoma (UC). Molecular subtypes may be relevant to prognosis and therapeutic possibilities, but have to date not been defined in Lynch syndrome-associated urothelial cancer. We aimed to provide a molecular description of Lynch syndrome-associated UC. Thus, Lynch syndrome-associated UCs of the upper urinary tract and the urinary bladder were identified in the Danish hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) register and were transcriptionally and immunohistochemically profiled and further related to data from 307 sporadic urothelial carcinomas. Whole-genome mRNA expression profiles of 41 tumors and immunohistochemical stainings against FGFR3, KRT5, CCNB1, RB1, and CDKN2A (p16) of 37 tumors from patients with Lynch syndrome were generated. Pathological data, microsatellite instability, anatomic location, and overall survival data were analyzed and compared with sporadic bladder cancer. The 41 Lynch syndrome-associated UC developed at a mean age of 61 years with 59% women. mRNA expression profiling and immunostaining classified the majority of the Lynch syndrome-associated UC as urothelial-like tumors with only 20% being genomically unstable, basal/SCC-like, or other subtypes. The subtypes were associated with stage, grade, and microsatellite instability. Comparison to larger datasets revealed that Lynch syndrome-associated UC shares molecular similarities with sporadic UC. In conclusion, transcriptomic and immunohistochemical profiling identifies a predominance of the urothelial-like molecular subtype in Lynch syndrome and reveals that the molecular subtypes of sporadic bladder cancer are relevant also within this hereditary, mismatch-repair defective subset.

Project description:[original title] Combined gene expression and genomic profiling define two intrinsic molecular subtypes of urothelial carcinoma and gene signatures for molecular grading and outcome. In the present investigation we sought to refine the classification of urothelial carcinoma by combining information on gene expression, genomic, and gene mutation levels. For these purposes we performed gene expression analysis of 144 carcinomas, and whole genome array-CGH analysis and mutation analyses of FGFR3, PIK3CA, KRAS, HRAS, NRAS, TP53, CDKN2A, and TSC1, in 103 of these cases. Hierarchical cluster analysis identified two intrinsic molecular subtypes, MS1 and MS2, which were validated and defined by the same set of genes in three independent bladder cancer data sets. The two subtypes differed with respect to gene expression and mutation profiles, as well as with the level of genomic instability. The data shows that genomic instability was the most distinguishing genomic feature of MS2 tumors, and that this trait was not dependent on TP53/MDM2 alterations. By combining molecular and pathological data it was possible to distinguish two molecular subtypes of Ta and T1 tumors, respectively. In addition, we define gene signatures validated in two independent data sets that classify urothelial carcinoma into low (G1/G2) and high grade (G3) tumors as well as non-muscle and muscle-invasive tumors with high precisions and sensitivities, suggesting molecular grading as a relevant complement to standard pathological grading. We also present a gene expression signature with independent prognostic impact on metastasis and disease specific survival. We conclude that the combination of molecular and histopathological classification systems may provide a strong improvement for bladder cancer classification and produce new insights into the development of this tumor type.

We conclude that the combination of molecular and histopathological classification systems may provide a strong improvement for bladder cancer classification and produce new insights into the development of this tumor type. 144 bladder cancer tumor samples and 12 normal samples were analyzed on 2-color cDNA or oligo microarrays using the Stratagene Universal Human Reference RNA as the common reference sample. 24 samples are hybridized to both the cDNA and oligo platform and these were used for merging of data from the two different gene expression platforms into a single expression matrix and for subsequent evaluation steps. The merged gene expression matrix used for analyses is supplied as a supplementary file (at the foot of this record). 103 of the samples were also analyzed on a BAC array containing ~32 000 BAC clones. Arrays were produced at the Swegene Centre for Integrative Biology at Lund University (SCIBLU).

Project description:For patients with muscle-invasive bladder cancer, there are no biomarkers in clinical use that can identify patients that are sensitive or resistant to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. This study investigates how molecular subtypes impact pathological response and survival in 149 patients receiving preoperative cis-platin based chemotherapy by tumor classification using transcriptomic profiling and a 13-marker immunostaining panel. Furthermore, we explored to what extent gene expression signatures can predict chemotherapy response beyond molecular subtypes. We observed improved pathological response rates and survival outcomes for patients presenting with genomically unstable (GU) and urothelial-like (Uro) subtypes compared to the basal-squamous (BASQ) subtype following neoadjuvant chemotherapy and radical cystectomy. Also, SPP1, coding for osteopontin, displayed a clear subtype-dependent effect on chemotherapy response, confirmed at the protein level. Based on our findings, we hypothesize that urothelial cancer of the luminal-like GU- and Uro-subtypes are more responsive to cisplatin-based chemotherapy which may influence patient selection pending further research.

Project description:Even though urothelial cancer (UC) is the fourth common tumor type among males, progress in treatment development has been deficient. Pathological assessment provides the urologists with only a broad classification, complicated by frequent disagreement among pathologist and the co-existence of different grading systems. Consequently, there is a great need for an objective, reproducible and biologically relevant classification system to make treatment more efficient. In the present investigation we present a molecular taxonomy for UC stratification based on integrated genomics. We used gene expression profiles from 308 UC to define seven molecular subtypes using step-by-step partitions and a bootstrap approach. Results were validated in three independent and publically available data sets. The subtypes differ significantly with respect to expression of cell cycle genes, of receptor tyrosine kinases particularity FGFR3, ERBB2 (HER2), and EGFR, of an FGFR3 associated gene expression signature, of cytokaratins, and of cell adhesion genes. The subtypes also differ significantly with respect to FGFR3, PIK3CA, and TP53 mutations. The expression of key proteins was validated by IHC on TMA. A further inspection indicated that the subtypes could be reduced to four major types of UC; Urobasal/D-driven, Genomically unstable/E-driven, Evolved urobasal, and Basal/SCC like, with characteristic and highly divergent molecular phenotypes. We show that the molecular subtypes cut across pathological classification and that tumors classified as one subtype maintain their characteristic molecular phenotype irrespective of pathological stage and grade. Available data from the Drugbank database and the Cochrane central registry of controlled trials indicate that susceptibility to specific drugs is more likely to be associated with the molecular stratification than with pathological classification. The presented molecular taxonomy stratifies UC into subtypes with distinct molecular phenotypes and biological properties. We anticipate that the molecular taxonomy will be a useful tool in future clinical investigations. Total RNA from fresh-frozen resection samples of 308 urothelial carcinomas was hybridized to the Illumina HumanHT-12 V3.0 expression beadchip arrays (Illumina Inc) at the SCIBLU Genomics Centre at Lund University Sweden (http://www.lth.se/sciblu). Supplementary files: GSE32894_non-normalized_308UCsamples.txt file = Raw intensity values for 308 UC (urothelial tumor) samples subjected only to background correction.

This dataset partly overlaps with Series GSE32549. Names of the overlapping sample names are the same, but the title of each sample is unique to the hybridization.

Project description:Lynch syndrome, known as hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC), is an autosomal-dominant familial cancer syndrome with an increased risk for urothelial cancer (UC). Mismatch repair (MMR) deficiency, due to pathogenic variants in MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2, and microsatellite instability, are known for development of Lynch syndrome (LS) associated carcinogenesis. UC is the third most common cancer type in LS-associated tumors. The diversity of germline variants in the affected MMR genes and their following subsequent function loss might be responsible for the variation in cancer risk, suggesting an increased risk of developing UC in MSH2 mutation carriers. In this review, we will focus on LS-associated UC of the upper urinary tract (UUT) and bladder, their germline profiles, and outcomes compared to sporadic UC, the impact of genetic testing, as well as urological follow-up strategies in LS. In addition, we present a case of metastatic LS-associated UC of the UUT and bladder, achieving complete response during checkpoint inhibition since more than 2 years.

Project description:Heredity is a major cause of ovarian cancer. Lynch syndrome is associated with 10-12% risk of ovarian cancer, diagnosis at young age and a predilection for endometrioid and clear cell tumors. Global gene expression profiling applied to 25 Lynch syndrome-associated and 42 sporadic ovarian cancers revealed 335 differentially expressed genes and involvement of the mTOR and the MAPK/ERK pathways. The clear cell tumors had distinct expression profiles with upregulation of HER2 and apoptosis signaling pathways. The distinct expression profiles provide clues relevant for hereditary tumorigenesis and may be relevant for therapeutic strategies and refined diagnostics in ovarian cancer linked to Lynch syndrome. Ovarian cancers linked to Lynch syndrome (n=25) were compared to a matched series of sporadic ovarian cancers (n=42), selected from a population-based consecutive series in which hereditary was excluded based on family history, normal MMR protein staining and lack of mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2.

Project description:Colorectal carcinomas arising in the context of Lynch syndrome, the most common inherited cancer syndrome, typically show deficiency of the DNA MMR (mismatch repair) system. Lack of functional MMR leads to accumulation of frameshift mutations at micosatellites (microsatellite instability, MSI). High load of highly immunogenic tumor-specific frameshift neoantigens results in strong immune response against Lynch syndrome MSI cancers. Previous studies have shown systemic immune responses against frameshift neoantigens in Lynch syndrome carriers long before tumor manifestation. In the present study, we analyzed the immune profile of normal colorectal mucosa in Lynch syndrome carriers without current or previous cancer history and in Lynch syndrome colorectal cancer patients, as well as of Lynch syndrome colorectal carcinomas. The unsupervised cluster analysis of gene expression data revealed a sharp differentiation between normal mucosa from Lynch syndrome individuals with and without manifest cancer as well as between normal mucosa in general and Lynch syndrome cancer tissue. Deconvolution analysis for predicting the prevalence of immune cell population among the three groups revealed 10 out of 14 investigated populations to be significantly different between the three tissue types (FDR=10%). In contrast to normal mucosa samples, tumor tissue showed overrepresentation of immune-suppressive cell populations, such as regulatory T cells and neutrophils. Taken together with the quantitative T cell density analysis on the basis of immunohistochemical T cell stainings, our data show strong immune infiltration of the normal colorectal mucosa in Lynch syndrome individuals even in the absence of a manifest cancer.
