Project description:Scientific evidence indicates that genetic factors may contribute to differences in lung cancer risk for individuals with similar levels of tobacco exposure, which is the main environmental risk factor of lung cancer. Moreover, lung cancer patients show large differences in clinical staging and survival; these differences seem to be attributable, at least partially, to the genetic background. The analysis of the molecular properties (e.g., germline variations and genome-wide expression levels) of non-involved tissue from lung cancer patients may contribute in the identification of genetic factors involved in the development and progression of this pathology. To this aim, we analyzed two series (discovery series, n = 204, and validation series, n = 78) of non-tumor lung tissue samples from smokers that underwent surgical lobectomy for adenocarcinoma in Milan, Italy. First, we examined the whole transcriptome of these two series to define the candidate genes and pathways associated with either lung cancer risk or prognosis in this cohort. Moreover, as sex and age are known to strongly influence the pathophysiology of human lungs, we used transcriptome data from the same samples to identify sex- and age-related transcriptional differences in lung. Samples of non-involved (apparently normal) lung parenchyma excised from patients who underwent lobectomy for lung adenocarcinoma in the area around Milan, Italy. The samples were analyzed in two sets: a discovery series (n = 204) and a validation series (n = 78).

Project description:Alteration of gene expression profile of target organs may signal exposure of that organ to toxic chemicals. We analyzed the transcriptome of the non-involved lung tissue, excised from 176 surgically treated lung adenocarcinoma patients, to identify genes whose expression levels were altered by individual habit to cigarette smoking. Of 17.097 genes analyzed, 357 resulted to be differentially expressed between never smokers and ever smokers (FDR <0.05). The gene that resulted to be the most significantly differentially expressed was MYO1A (FDR = 6.9 x 10-4 and ever versus never smokers fold change of 1.42). We compared our results with those of five independent datasets and found that more than one third (38.6%) of the transcripts associated with smoking habit in our dataset overlapped with at least one of the other datasets, with 7 genes (KMO, CD1A, SPINK5, TREM2, CYBB, DNASE2B, FGG) resulting significantly differentially expressed between ever and never smokers in all five datasets, with concordant higher expression in ever smokers than in never smokers. Most of the genes that we found significantly differentially expressed between ever and never smokers participate in pathways/networks that are directly or indirectly associated with immunity and inflammation, in particular, the most significantly enriched pathway was that of eicosanoid signaling. Overall, present results further points to the inflammatory condition that characterize the lung tissue of smokers.

Project description:Epigenetic alterations are widespread in cancer and can complement genetic alterations to influence cancer progression and treatment. To better understand the potential contribution of DNA methylation alterations to tumor phenotype in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in both smoker and never-smoker patients, we performed a comprehensive, genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation in 17 primary non-small cell lung cancer and 10 matched normal lung samples using the complementary methylation assays MeDIP-seq and MRE-seq. Compared to patient-matched non-malignant lung tissue, we report recurrent methylation changes of several gene promoters, many previously implicated in cancer, including FAM83A and SEPT9 (hypomethylation), and PCDH7, NKX2-1, and SOX17 (hypermethylation). Although smoker and never-smoker patients shared many methylation changes, several were specific and recurrent within a particular smoking status. In particular, never-smokers displayed a greater proportion of hypoDMRs and exhibited a greater number of recurrently hypomethylated promoters, including the promoter of the oncogene ASPSCR1, and others previously linked to cancer, including TOP2A, DPP9, and USP39. Methylation changes outside of promoters were also widespread and often recurrent, particularly the loss of methylation over repetitive elements, highly enriched for ERV1 subfamilies. Recurrent hypoDMRs were also enriched for several transcription factor (TF) binding motifs, often for genes involved in signaling and cell proliferation, including 71% encoding a binding site of NKX2-1, which was found to be significantly upregulated in TCGA LUAD samples. Furthermore, the overwhelming majority of DMRs identified in this study were found to reside in an active chromatin state in at least one tissue profiled using the Roadmap Epigenome data, suggesting that methylation changes may contribute to altered regulatory programs through the adaptation of cell type-specific expression programs.

Project description:Approximately 15% of lung cancer cases are not associated with smoking and show molecular and clinical characteristics distinct from those in smokers. Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutations, which are correlated with sensitivity to EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs), are more frequent in never-smoker lung cancers. In this study, microRNA (miRNA) expression profiling of 28 never-smoker lung cancer cases identified aberrantly expressed miRNAs, which were much fewer than in lung cancers of smokers and included miRNAs previously identified (e.g., upregulated miR-21) and unidentified (e.g., downregulated miR-138) in those smoker cases. The changes in expression of some of these miRNAs were more remarkable in cases with EGFR mutations than in those without: the most upregulated miRNA, miR-21, was more abundant in cancers with EGFR mutation. A significant correlation between phosphorylated-EGFR (p-EGFR) and miR-21 levels in lung carcinoma cell lines and the suppression of miR-21 by an EGFR-TKI, AG1478, suggested that the EGFR signaling pathway positively regulated miR-21 expression. In a never-smoker-derived lung adenocarcinoma cell line H3255 with mutant EGFR and high levels of p-EGFR and miR-21, antisense inhibition of miR-21 enhanced AG1478-induced apoptosis. In a never-smoker-derived adenocarcinoma cell line H441 with wild-type EGFR, the antisense miR-21 not only showed the additive effect with AG1478 but also induced apoptosis by itself. These results suggest that aberrantly increased expression of miR-21, which is further enhanced by the activated EGFR signaling pathway, plays a critical role in lung carcinogenesis in never-smokers and is a potential therapeutic target in both EGFR mutant and wild-type cases.

Twenty-eight pairs of lung cancer tissues and corresponding noncancerous lung tissues were obtained from never-smokers who had undergone surgical resection from 2000 to 2004 at the University of Maryland Medical Center (n=15), Mayo Clinic (n=7) in United States and Hamamatsu University School of Medicine (n=6) in Japan.

Project description:One of the most fertile applications of next generation sequencing will be in the field of cancer genomics. Here, we report a high-throughput multi-dimensional sequencing study of primary non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma tumors and adjacent normal tissues of 6 never-smoker Korean female patients. Our data encompass results from exome-seq, RNA-seq, small RNA-seq, and MeDIP-seq. We identified and validated novel genetic aberrations including 47 somatic mutations and 20 fusion transcripts. We also characterized gene expression profiles which we sought to integrate with genomic aberrations and epigenetic regulations into functional networks. Importantly, among others the gene network module governing G2/M cell check point emerged as the primary source of disturbance in these patients. In addition, our study strongly suggests that microRNAs make key regulatory inputs into this gene network module. Our study offers a paradigm for integrative genomics analysis and proposes potential target pathways for the control of non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma. Study of primary non-small cell lung adenocarcinoma tumors and normal tissues of 6 patients.
