Project description:DNA aneuploid sublines in sporadic colorectal cancers (CRCs) are quite frequent (about 85%) and likely the consequence of chromosomal instability and DNA copy number aberrations (CNAs). In order to gain insight into the mechanisms of the diploid-aneuploid transition in CRCs, we compared the CNA status in both diploid and aneuploid sublines. We used fresh/frozen material from 17 aneuploid CRCs, which was separated into 17 DNA diploid and 17 aneuploid sublines using enrichment of the epithelial component by multiparameter flow cytometry and sorting. CNA status of both sublines was obtained by array comparative genomic hybridization. The DNA diploid sublines from the aneuploid CRCs showed already CNAs, in particular, gains at 20p and 20q. The same aberrations were detected at increased frequencies in the corresponding DNA aneuploid sublines. Moreover, the very frequent gains/losses of chromosomes 4, 7, 8, 13, 15, and 18 in the DNA aneuploid sublines were absent or rare in the DNA diploid sublines from the same sporadic aneuploid CRCs. The comparison of the DNA diploid and aneuploid sublines from aneuploid CRCs suggests that 20p and 20q gains may play a role in the diploid-aneuploid transition. The 20q chromosomal arm appears of particular interest since it harbors several genes implicated in chromosomal instability.

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) tend to acquire chromosomal aberrations in culture, which may increase their tumorigenicity. However, the cellular mechanism(s) underlying these aberrations are largely unknown. Here we show that the DNA replication in aneuploid hPSCs is perturbed, resulting in high prevalence of defects in chromosome condensation and segregation. Global gene expression analyses in aneuploid hPSCs revealed decreased levels of actin cytoskeleton genes and their common transcription factor SRF. Down-regulation of SRF or chemical perturbation of actin cytoskeleton organization in diploid hPSCs resulted in increased replication stress and perturbation of chromosome condensation, recapitulating the findings in aneuploid hPSCs. Altogether, our results revealed that in hPSCs DNA replication stress results in a distinctive defect in chromosome condensation, underlying their ongoing chromosomal instability. Our results shed a new light on the mechanisms leading to ongoing chromosomal instability in hPSCs, and may be relevant to tumor development as well.

Project description:We applied DNA content based flow cytometry methods to interrogate the genomes of clinical samples from 21 patients with early onset colorectal carcinoma (EOCRC). These included a fresh frozen sample obtained from a surgical resection and 20 archived formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples from a Mayo Clinic tissue bank. Our flow sorting methods are compatible with analyses of biopsies of interest including FFPE samples and frozen biopsies. Notably for this study we distinguished and sorted diploid and aneuploid tumors. We then profiled the exomes of tumor normal pairs for all 21 cases, the whole genome copy number for a subset of 6 samples, and telomere length in diploid and aneuploid nuclei from 9 cases. Additionally, we screened the 20 FFPE cases for EGFR expression with an established IHC assay.

Project description:Aneuploidy from chromosomal instability is frequently detected in the vast majority of sporadic colorectal cancer patients and is believed to be an early driving force in disease progression. Despite this observation, the cellular advantages conferred by these cytogenetic alterations are poorly understood. We have isolated and immortalized non-transformed human colonic epithelial cells (HCECs) from non-cancerous biopsy tissue from a previous CRC patient undergoing routine colonoscopy. While these cells maintain a diploid karyotype under 2% serum conditions, we have isolated derivatives in serum-free culture with an extra copy of chromosome 7 (+7), a non-random trisomy detected in over 40% of human colorectal adenomas and carcinomas. We report here that +7 HCECs were not detectable in the initial cell population and appeared from an originally diploid population under serum-free culture conditions. The emergence of +7 cells correlates with a slight growth advantage that may be attributed to aberrant regulation of the epidermal growth factor receptor. We also provide evidence that +7 HCECs have defects in cell migration. A subpopulation with trisomy 20, another non-random chromosomal alteration in CRC, emerged following stable knockdown of TP53 and expression of oncogenic K-RASV12 in +7 HCECs. We describe isogenic HCECs that represent non-random cytogenetic changes occurring in sporadic colorectal cancer progression. These unique cellular reagents may serve as useful in vitro models for studying chromosomal instability-mediated tumorigenesis and the discovery of novel chemopreventive strategies.

Project description:The aim of the study was to address the concept of field cancerization in oral cancer. The presence of genomic aberrations, indicative of chromosomal instability (CIN), in oral distant fields (ODFs) of visually normal and non-dysplastic mucosa at the mirror image from concomitant oral potentially malignant lesions (OPMLs) was investigated. This pilot study comprised 16 OPMLs (8 without dysplasia, nd-OPMLs; 8 with dysplasia, d-OPMLs) and 16 ODFs. DNA diploid (DNA Index, DI=1) and aneuploid (DIM-bM-^IM- 1) sublines were detected by high resolution DNA-flow cytometry (FCM) at (hr DNA-FCM) using DAPI stained nuclei suspensions. Nuclei with different DIs were FCM-sorted in order to enrich the epithelial component and to obtain genomic DNA for high resolution oligonucleotide array-Comparative Genomic Hybridization (a-CGH) analysis to provide a genome-wide measurement of DNA copy number aberrations (CNAs). The frequencies of DNA aneuploidy in ODFs and OPMLs were 6.2% and 43.8%, respectively (p=0.037). ODFs and nd-OPMLs were all near-diploid (DIM-bM-^IM- 1 and DIM-bM-^IM-$1.4), while d-OPMLs were also high-aneuploid (DI>1.4). CNA averages were 2.3 in ODFs (1.5 for nd-OPMLs and 3.1 for d-OPMLs), and 7.325 in OPMLs (3.0 in nd-OPMLs; 11.6 in d-OPMLs). CNAs were present in the DNA diploid sublines and often the same CNAs were observed in both ODFs and corresponding OPMLs DNA aneuploid sublines and CNAs in the present series of 16 ODFs are likely to represent early events of the natural history of oral carcinogenesis and to indicate an early onset of the field effect cancerization. Moreover, gains within 20q13.33-qter, 7p22.2-pter and 16p13.3-pter chromosomal regions in ODFs and in the relative OPMLs suggest that specific genes localized in these regions (RTEL1, MAD1L1 and TEL2) might contribute to the ODF/d-OPML transition. We analyzed: 8 samples of oral potentially malignant lesions with dysplasia, 8 samples of oral potentially malignant lesions without dysplasia and for each patient a corresponding oral distant field of visually normal mucosa.

Project description:Details of the series are available in the publication Cardoso J. et al., âChromosomal instability in MYH- and APC-mutant adenomatous polypsâ, Cancer Research, accepted for publication. Abstract of the publication: âThe vast majority of colorectal cancers display genetic instability, either in the chromosomal (CIN) or microsatellite (MIN) forms. While CIN tumors are per definition aneuploid, MIN colorectal cancers, caused by loss of mismatch repair function, are usually near-diploid. Recently, bi-allelic germline mutations in the MYH gene, were found to be responsible for MAP (MYH associated polyposis), an autosomal recessive predisposition to multiple colorectal polyps, often indistinguishable from the dominant FAP (familial adenomatous polyposis) syndrome caused by inherited APC mutations. Here, we analyzed MYH- and APC-mutant polyps by combining laser-capture microdissection, isothermal genomic DNA amplification, and array-CGH (comparative genomic hybridization). Smoothed quantile regression methods were applied to the MAP and FAP genomic profiles to discriminate chromosomes predominantly affected by gains and losses. Up to 80% of the MAP polyps showed aneuploid changes, which is significantly higher than the 60% found among FAP polyps. Both MAP and FAP adenomas were characterized by frequent losses at chromosome 1p, 17, 19 and 22, and gains affecting chromosome 7 and 13. The observation that aneuploidy is already detectable at early stages of MYH-driven tumorigenesis raises the possibility that CIN may contribute significantly to accelerated tumor progression, increased cancer risk, and poor prognosis in MAP.â Details of the series are available in the publication Cardoso J. et al., âChromosomal instability in MYH- and APC-mutant adenomatous polypsâ, Cancer Research, accepted for publication.
