Project description:There is a strong need to develop patient-derived xenograft (PDX) tumor models for studying new treatment options for gastric cancer (GC). With low engraftment success, few collections of GC PDX have been reported and molecular basis of the model establishment remain largely unknown. Here we established n=27 PDX models from n=100 GC tumors and compared their characteristics to GC patient tumors based on the recent work done by ACRG and TCGA, to evaluate the representativeness and relevance of the collection for drug testing. We show that MSI, CIN and MSS/TP53- tumors were preferentially established as PDX, while MSS/EMT and EBV not and that PDX models retained histology and molecular subtypes of parental tumors. By using synapse database, we identified 48 druggable alterations that could be investigated with the collection. Counting alterations for these 48 genes in PDX compared to TCGA tumors revealed models frequently classified with heavily altered tumors but well preserved genomic alteration patterns specific of each GC subtype. The molecular analysis of n=8/27 tumors and corresponding PDX at passage P1, P2 and P3 revealed variations in somatic alteration content both at single nucleotide and chromosomal level in highly unstable MSI and CIN tumors, with changes occurring mainly at P1. In two cases, we show likely emergence of rare subclones carrying known oncogenic alterations in KRAS and PIK3CA. Significance. This study presents a resource of fully annotated GC PDX models for anticancer agent testing. We show that beside close resemblance of PDX with parental tumors, not all subtypes are established, and that the clonal selection plays a key role the establishment of certain tumors. This may have a bearing on translation of observations into the clinic and underline the need to frequently survey the molecular characteristics of the PDX models.

Project description:Gastric cancer is the most common cancer in Asia and most developing countries. To identify the molecular underpinnings of gastric cancer in the Asian population, we applied an RNA-sequencing approach to gastric tumor and noncancerous specimens to quantitatively characterize the entire transcriptome of gastric cancer (including mRNAs and microRNAs). A multi-layer analysis was then developed to identify multiple types of transcriptional aberrations associated with different stages of gastric cancer, including differentially expressed mRNAs, recurrent somatic mutations and key differentially expressed microRNAs. Through this approach, we identified the central metabolic regulator AMPK-α as a potential functional target in Asian gastric cancer. Further, we experimentally demonstrated the translational relevance of this gene as a potential therapeutic target for early-stage gastric cancer in Asian patients. Together, our findings not only provide a valuable information resource for identifying and elucidating the molecular mechanisms of Asian gastric cancer, but also represent a general integrative framework to develop more effective therapeutic targets.

A multi-layer analysis was then developed to identify multiple types of transcriptional aberrations associated with different stages of gastric cancer, including differentially expressed mRNAs, recurrent somatic mutations and key differentially expressed microRNAs. Through this approach, we identified the central metabolic regulator AMPK-M-NM-1 as a potential functional target in Asian gastric cancer. Further, we experimentally demonstrated the translational relevance of this gene as a potential therapeutic target for early-stage gastric cancer in Asian patients. Together, our findings not only provide a valuable information resource for identifying and elucidating the molecular mechanisms of Asian gastric cancer, but also represent a general integrative framework to develop more effective therapeutic targets. Using Life Technologies SOLiDM-bM-^DM-" sequencing platform, we performed transcriptome-wide profiling of gastric cancer samples from 30 anonymous, unrelated Asians of both sexes. Included were six noncancerous gastric tissue samples and 24 gastric tumor samples that represented stages I through IV of tumor development. From the WT-seq protocol we generated a WT-seq dataset of 2.1 billion 50-nt short reads from the 30 samples; Applying the second small RNA-seq protocol to 19 gastric tumor samples (5 of the original 24 yielded insufficient sample amounts) and 6 noncancerous gastric tissue samples resulted in a small RNA-seq dataset.

Project description:Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) of pancreatic islets have reported on α- and β-cell gene expression in mice and subjects of predominantly European ancestry. We aimed to assess these findings in East-Asian islet-cells. 448 islet-cells were captured from three East-Asian non-diabetic subjects for scRNA-seq. Hierarchical clustering using pancreatic cell lineage genes was used to assign cells into cell-types. Differentially expressed transcripts between α- and β-cells were detected using ANOVA and in silico replications of mouse and human islet cell genes were performed. We identified 118 α, 105 β, 6 δ endocrine cells and 47 exocrine cells. Besides INS and GCG, 26 genes showed differential expression between α- and β-cells. 10 genes showed concordant expression as reported in rodents, while FAM46A was significantly discordant. Comparing our East-Asian data with data from primarily European subjects, we replicated several genes implicated in nuclear receptor activations, acute phase response pathway, glutaryl-CoA/tryptophan degradations and EIF2/AMPK/mTOR signaling. Additionally, we identified protein ubiquitination to be associated among East-Asian β-cells. We report on East-Asian α- and β-cell gene signatures and substantiate several genes/pathways. We identify expression signatures in East-Asian β-cells that perhaps reflects increased susceptibility to cell-death and warrants future validations to fully appreciate their role in East-Asian diabetes pathogenesis.

Project description:As Asians are underrepresented across many omics databases limiting the potential of precision medicine of the global population. It is thus important for multi-omics derived quantitative trait loci (QTLs) to fill the knowledge gap of complex traits in the Asian ancestry. Integrating omics data from genomics and epigenomics (including DNA methylation and RNA-seq from blood), we developed iMOMdb, an open-acesss database to enhance disease prediction models and precision medicine outcomes in Asian pregnant women.
