Project description:Heredity is a major risk factor for ovarian cancer, but many families escape detection. Refined diagnosis of ovarian cancers linked to the breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC) syndrome and the hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) syndrome would allow cancer prevention in high risk families. In order to delineate genetic profiles of hereditary ovarian cancer, we applied genome wide array comparative genomic hybridization to 24 sporadic tumors, 12 HBOC associated tumors (BRCA1 mutations) and eight HNPCC associated tumors (mismatch repair gene mutations). Unsupervised cluster analysis identified two distinctive clusters related to genetic complexity. Most sporadic and HBOC associated tumors had complex genetic profiles with multiple gains and losses with an average of 41% of the genome altered, whereas mismatch repair defective tumors had stable genetic profiles, with an average of 18% of the genome altered. Losses of 4q34, 13q12-q32 and 19p13 were overrepresented in the HBOC subset, gains of chromosomes 17 and 19 characterized the HNPCC tumors and gains of 20q11 were more common in the sporadic tumors. The genetic distinction between HBOC and HNPCC associated ovarian cancer suggests that genetic profiles can be applied for refined classification of hereditary cases and reflects tumor development along different genetic pathways.

Project description:The challenge of preventing colorectal cancer (CRC) is the early identification of individuals whose apparently normal colorectal mucosa will develop cancer, because of inherited trait or environmental exposure. We sought to use genome-wide expression profiling of endoscopic biopsies to detect a signature of propensity for cancer. We performed oligonucleotide microarray analysis of normal appearing mucosa of the following cases: healthy individuals, disease-free carriers predisposed to HNPCC (hereditary non-polyposis CRC), disease-free patients who underwent curative large bowel resection for CRC 1 to 15 years earlier and patients with CRC. This profiling is based on the analysis of 4 donors who underwent curative large bowel resection for CRC from 1 to 19 years before (M-CRC samples), 4 disease-free carriers of mutations in the mismatch repair system genes, who are predisposed to develop HNPCC (HNPCC samples) and 4 endoscopy-negative, asymptomatic individuals (NOR samples)

Project description:Background: Causative genes for autosomal dominantly inherited familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) and hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) have been well characterized. There is, however, another 10-15 % early onset colorectal cancer (CRC) whose genetic components are currently unknown. In this study, we used DNA chip technology to systematically search for genes differentially expressed in early onset CRC. Keywords: disease state analysis

We sought to use genome-wide expression profiling of endoscopic biopsies to detect a signature of propensity for cancer. We performed oligonucleotide microarray analysis of normal appearing mucosa of the following cases: healthy individuals (NOR), disease-free carriers predisposed to HNPCC (hereditary non-polyposis CRC), disease-free patients who underwent curative large bowel resection for CRC 1 to 15 years earlier and patients with CRC (MCRC) (GSE23011). As test set we run on affymetrix arrays an independent set of mucosal biopsies of MCRC and NOR samples.

Project description:Among women with HNPCC, this study will assess:
1. Knowledge of screening recommendations for endometrial and ovarian cancers.
2. Perceived risk and cancer worries regarding endometrial, ovarian and colorectal cancers.
3. Adherence to screening recommendations for endometrial, ovarian and colon cancers.
4. Perceived benefits,supports and barriers to endometrial and ovarian cancer screening.
5. Patterns of communication about endometrial and ovarian cancer risk within families with HNPCC and with health care providers.
6. Patient preferences for potential cancer screening and cancer prevention strategies related to HNPCC-associated cancers.

Project description:The purpose of this study is to establish the HNPCC related information in Taiwan, and to characterize relevant susceptibility genes related to colorectal cancer to provide better disease control for the high-risk people. To accomplish this objective, we will collect detailed information of the HNPCC patients and their families from the collaborative hospitals and relate the information to the risk of CRC in order to provide sound disease control system in Taiwan.
