Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE32079: Mutations in IDH1 and IDH2 are associated with DNA hypermethylation in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas GSE32283: Mutations in IDH1 are associated with DNA hypermethylation in glioblastomas Refer to individual Series
Project description:We compared the DNA methylation profiles of 12 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas harboring mutations in the genes encoding isocitrate dehydrogenase, IDH1 and IDH2, with 28 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas without these mutations. We profiled these samples with the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip, and characterized over 2,000 genes that were hypermethylated in tumors with mutations in IDH1 or IDH2.

We profiled these samples with the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip, and characterized over 2,000 genes that were hypermethylated in tumors with mutations in IDH1 or IDH2. Genomic DNA from fresh frozen tumors was bisulfite converted with the Zymo Research EZ DNA Methylation kit, then hybridized to the Illumina HumanMethylation450 Beadchip.
Project description:Mutations of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 or 2 occur in 10-30% of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (ICCs). However, their functional roles in biliary carcinogenesis are still unknown. We used microarrays to investigate how mutant IDH1 affect the gene expression of intrahepatic biliary organoids generated from normal murine liver.
Project description:Differentiating intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (iCCA) from hepatic metastases of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is difficult. We hypothesized that DNA-methylation based machine-learning algorithms may be able to perform this task. We assembled genome-wide DNA-methylation data for iCCA, PAAD, and normal bile from publicly available sources. We used an internal cohort consisting of 72 samples to test our classifier.
Project description:To determine the transcriptomic similarity of undifferentiated carcinomas (UDCs) and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas (iCCAs) generated from primary human hepatocytes (phHeps) by oncogene expression and transplantation into immue-deficient mice with liver injury to iCCAs and hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) resected from patients.
Project description:Through exomic sequencing of 32 intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas, we discovered frequent inactivating mutations in multiple chromatin remodeling genes (including BAP1, ARID1A, and PBRM1) – mutation in one of these genes occurred in almost half of the carcinomas sequenced. We also identified frequent mutations at previously reported hotspots in genes encoding the metabolic enzymes IDH1 and IDH2 in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas. In contrast, TP53 was the most frequently altered gene in a series of nine gallbladder carcinomas. These studies highlight the importance of dysregulation of chromatin remodeling in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinomas.
