Project description:Pathogenic germline variants in the protection of telomeres 1 gene (POT1) have been associated with predisposition to a range of tumor types, including melanoma, glioma, leukemia and cardioangiosarcoma. We sequenced all coding exons of the POT1 gene in 2,929 European-descent melanoma cases and 3,298 controls, identifying 43 protein-changing genetic variants. We performed functional studies on each of these variants and explored their possible contribution to disease risk.

Project description:Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) in inherited bone marrow failure (BMF) is disease-specific but has been poorly characterized in telomere biology disorders (TBD).We studied the architecture, trajectories, and impact of CH in a cohort of 207 TBD patients and assessed the clinical relevance of molecular signatures linked to telomere dysfunction. Most patients (92%) had known germline mutations in TBD genes. CH was rare in asymptomatic but present in 46% of symptomatic patients, recurrently in PPM1D, POT1, TERT promoter (TERTp), and U2AF1. CH frequency increased with age and was significantly higher than in age- matched controls. CH in PPM1D/TERTp was enriched in TERT patients while CH in POT1 was enriched in TINF2 patients. CH in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)-related genes, most commonly splicing factors, was enriched in TERT/TERC patients. CH in TERTp, TP53 ̧ and MDS- related genes associated with poorer survival. Chromosome 1q (Chr1q) gain, and splicing factor gene (dominated by U2AF1S34/Q157R) or TP53 mutations increased the risk of MDS/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) development, regardless of allele burden. Trajectories with successive acquisition of MDS-related CH driven by U2AF1S34/Q157R were maladaptive, while adaptive CH involved branched POT1/PPM1D/TERTp trajectories. U2AF1S34/Q157R compensated aberrant TP53 and interferon-γ pathway activation that contribute to hematopoietic stem cell exhaustion in TBD.

Project description:Background: Familial melanoma accounts for 10% of cases, withCDKN2A being the main high-risk gene. However, the mechanisms underlying melanomagenesis in individuals at high risk of developing melanoma remain poorly understood. Objective: To analyze the transcriptome of melanocyte/keratinocyte co-cultures derived from healthy skin from familial melanoma patients vs. controls, to comprehend melanoma development. Methods: Primary melanocyte-keratinocyte co-cultures were established from healthy skin biopsies from 16 unrelated familial melanoma patients (8 CDKN2A mutant, 8 CDKN2A wild-type) and from 7 healthy controls. Whole transcriptome was captured using the SurePrint G3 Human Microarray. Transcriptome analyses included: differential gene expression, functional enrichment, and protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Results: We identified a gene profile associated with familial melanoma independently of CDKN2A germline status. Functional enrichment analysis of this profile showed a downregulation of pathways related to DNA repair and immune response in familial melanoma (P < 0.05). In addition, the PPI network analysis revealed a network that consisted of double stranded DNA repair genes (including BRCA1, BRCA2, BRIP1, and FANCA), immune response genes and regulation of chromosome segregation. The hub gene was BRCA1. Conclusion: The constitutive deregulation of BRCA1 pathway genes and immune response in healthy skin could be a mechanism related with melanoma risk.

Project description:Mounting evidence suggests that copy number variations (CNVs) can contribute to cancer susceptibility. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the role of germline CNVs in melanoma predisposition in high-risk melanoma families. We used genome-wide tiling comparative genomic hybridization and SNP arrays to characterize CNVs in 335 individuals (240 melanoma cases) from American melanoma-prone families (22 with germline CDKN2A or CDK4 mutations). We found that the global burden of overall CNVs (or deletions or duplications separately) was not significantly associated with case-control or CDKN2A/CDK4 mutation status after accounting for the familial dependence. However, we identified several rare CNVs that either involved known melanoma genes (e.g. PARP1, CDKN2A) or co-segregated with melanoma (duplication on 10q23.23, 3p12.2 and deletions on 8q424.3, 2q22.1) in families without mutations in known melanoma high-risk genes. Some of these CNVs were correlated with expression changes in disrupted genes based on RNASeq data from a subset of melanoma cases included in the CNV study. These results suggest that rare co-segregating CNVs may influence melanoma susceptibility in some melanoma-prone families and genes found in our study warrant further evaluation in future genetic analyses of melanoma.

Project description:NGS-based multiple gene panel resequencing in combination with a high resolution CGH-array was used to identify genetic risk factors for hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer in 237 high risk patients who were previously tested negative for pathogenic BRCA1/2 variants. All patients were screened for pathogenic variants in 94 different cancer predisposing genes. We identified 32 pathogenic variants in 14 different genes (ATM, BLM, BRCA1, CDH1, CHEK2, FANCG, FANCM, FH, HRAS, PALB2, PMS2, PTEN, RAD51C and NBN) in 30 patients (12.7%). Two pathogenic BRCA1 variants that were previously undetected due to less comprehensive and sensitive methods were found. Five pathogenic variants are novel, three of which occur in genes yet unrelated to hereditary breast and/or ovarian cancer (FANCG, FH and HRAS). In our cohort we discovered a remarkably high frequency of truncating variants in FANCM (2.1%), which has recently been suggested as a susceptibility gene for hereditary breast cancer. Two patients of our cohort carried two different pathogenic variants each and ten other patients in whom a pathogenic variant was confirmed also harbored a variant of unknown significance in a breast and ovarian cancer susceptibility gene. We were able to identify pathogenic variants predisposing for tumor formation in 12.3% of BRCA1/2 negative breast and/or ovarian cancer patients.

Project description:Interethnic variability in chemotherapy response is becoming increasingly evident, making approaches for customizing chemotherapy treatment to different ethnic populations desirable. At the same time, significant genetic variation has also been observed between ethnic groups, including many germline and somatic pharmacogenetic variants involved in chemotherapy pharmacology. Recently, based on meta-analyses of studies on germline pharmacogenetic variant frequencies and clinical trials, the investigators found that chemotherapy outcomes between Asians and Caucasians colorectal cancer (CRC) patients could potentially be inferred from the frequencies of variants between the ethnic groups and their respective biological functions. In this study, the investigators seek to further clarify the validity of using pharmacogenetic variants to customize chemotherapy between ethnicities through the following specific aims: (1) To verify the differences observed in the frequency of germline pharmacogenetic variants related to chemotherapy between Asian and Caucasian CRC patients, (2) To test whether variations in the frequency of somatic pharmacogenetic gene mutations between Asian and Caucasian CRC patients could be used to infer differences in clinical outcomes between the two ethnicities. (3) (4) For Aim 1, DNA samples from approximately 1000 Asian and Caucasian CRC patients each will be analyzed for the frequency of a panel of germline pharmacogenetic variants identified in our meta-analyses using high-throughput methodology. For Aim 2, meta-analyses will be performed on pharmacogenetic studies and clinical trials to establish the relative frequencies of somatic variants and clinical outcomes in Asian and Caucasian CRC patients. These frequencies will be verified on the same series of DNA samples used in Aim 1. The clinical outcomes inferred from the frequency differences and biological functions will then be compared to those summarized from clinical trials. This data could provide a basis for developing a rational approach to customizing chemotherapy in non-Caucasian populations and improve assessment of drug feasibility in different ethnic populations.If validated, this working hypothesis would be of high clinical interest, giving the opportunity to use this as a DNA prognosis biomarker in CRC.
Pharmacogenetic frequencies could be a potentially useful approach for predicting likely chemotherapy outcomes in non-Caucasian populations

Project description:We identified pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in 17.8% of the patients within a wide range of cancer types. In particular, mesothelioma, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, urothelial cancer, and cancer of unknown primary origin displayed high frequencies of pathogenic variants. In total, 22 BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline variant were identified in 12 different cancer types, of which 10 (45%) variants were not previously identified in these patients. Pathogenic germline variants were predominantly found in DNA repair pathways; approximately half of the variants were within genes involved in homologous recombination repair. Loss of heterozygosity and somatic second hits were identified in several of these genes, supporting possible causality for cancer development. A potential treatment target based on pathogenic germline variant could be suggested in 25 patients (4%).

Project description:Within the frame of inherited cancer predisposition, single gene carriers of pathogenic variants (PVs) have been extensively represented in the literature, whereas the oligogenic coinheritance of heterozygous PVs in cancer-related genes is a poorly studied event. Currently, due to the increment of cancer survivors, the probability of presenting multiple primary cancers (MPC) is higher. This study included MPC patients ≤45 years without known PVs in common cancer predisposition genes. We used whole exome sequencing (WES) of germline and tumoral DNA, chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) on germline DNA (patient 1-7, and patient 9-10), and karyotype of patient 8to detect variants associated with the disease. The ten patients included in the study presented a mean of 3 cancers per patient. CMA showed two microduplications and one microdeletion, while WES of the germline DNA identified 1-3 single nucleotide variants of potential interest to the disease in each patient and two additional copy number variants. Most of the identified variants were classified as variants of uncertain significance. The mapping of the germline variants into their pathways showed a possible additive effect of these as the cause of the cancer. Twelve somatic samples from 5 patients were available for sequencing. All the germline variants were also present in the somatic samples, while no second hits were identified in the same genes. The sequencing of patients with early cancers, family history and multiple tumors is already a standard of care. However, the growing evidence suggests that patient´s assessment should not stop at the identification of one PV in a cancer predisposition gene.
