Project description:The heterogeneous composition of solid tumors is known to impact disease progression and response to therapy. Malignant cells coexist in different regulatory states that can be accessed transcriptomically by RNA sequencing, but single-cell methods have many caveats related to sensitivity, noise, and sample handling. We revised a statistical fluctuation analysis called stochastic profiling to combine with 10-cell RNA sequencing, which was designed for laser-capture microdissection (LCM) and extended here for immuno-LCM. When applied to a cohort of late-onset, early-stage luminal breast cancers, the integrated approach identified thousands of candidate regulatory heterogeneities. Intersecting the candidates from different tumors yielded a relatively stable set of 710 recurrent heterogeneously expressed genes (RHEGs) that were significantly variable in >50% of patients. RHEGs were not confounded by dissociation artifacts, cell cycle oscillations, or driving mutations for breast cancer. Rather, we detected RHEG enrichments for epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition genes and, unexpectedly, the latest pan-cancer assembly of driver genes across all cancer types. Heterogeneous transcriptional regulation conceivably provides a faster, reversible mechanism for malignant cells to sample the effects of potential oncogenes or tumor suppressors on cancer hallmarks.

Intersecting the candidates from different tumors yielded a relatively stable set of 710 recurrent heterogeneously expressed genes (RHEG), which were significantly variable in >50% of patients. RHEGs were not strongly confounded by dissociation artifacts, cell-cycle oscillations, or driving mutations for breast cancer. Rather, RHEGs were enriched for epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition genes and, unexpectedly, the latest pan-cancer assembly of driver genes across cancer types other than breast. These findings indicate that heterogeneous transcriptional regulation conceivably provides a faster, reversible mechanism for malignant cells to evaluate the effects of potential oncogenes or tumor suppressors on cancer hallmarks. SIGNIFICANCE: Profiling intratumor heterogeneity of luminal breast carcinoma cells identifies a recurrent set of genes, suggesting sporadic activation of pathways known to drive other types of cancer.See related articles by Schaff and colleagues, p. 1853 and Sutcliffe and colleagues, p. 1868.

Project description:Gene expression profiling of 82 patients with cervical cancer was performed. The expression data were correlated with copy number alterations of the same patients, as assessed with array CGH in a separate study, in order to identify drivers of cervical cancer carcinogenesis. In total, 82 patients with cervical cancer, stage 1b bulky through 4a, were included. Pretreatment biopsies were taken from the tumors and analyzed with Illumina gene expression BeadArrays (Human WG-6 v3).

Project description:Critical developmental “master transcription factors” (MTFs) can be subverted during tumorigenesis to control expression of oncogenic transcriptional programs. Current approaches to identify MTFs rely on chromatin immunoprecipitation-sequencing data, which is currently unavailable for many cancer types. We developed the CaCTS (Cancer Core Transcription factor Specificity) algorithm to prioritize candidate MTFs using pan-cancer RNA-sequencing data. CaCTS identified candidate MTFs across 34 tumor types and 140 subtypes, including known MTFs. We also made novel predictions, including for cancer types/subtypes for which MTFs are unknown. This included PAX8, SOX17, and MECOM as candidate MTFs in ovarian cancer (OV). In OV cells, these factors are required for viability, lie proximal to super-enhancers, co-occupy regulatory elements globally and co-bind at critical gene loci encoding OV biomarkers. Identification of tumor MTFs, especially for tumor types with limited understanding of transcriptional drivers, paves the way to therapeutic targeting of MTFs in a broad spectrum of cancers.

Project description:We developed a computational framework that integrates chromosomal copy number and gene expression data for detecting aberrations that promote cancer progression. We demonstrate the utility of this framework using a melanoma dataset. Our analysis correctly identified known drivers of melanoma and predicted multiple novel tumor dependencies. Two dependencies, TBC1D16 and RAB27A, confirmed empirically, suggest that abnormal regulation of protein trafficking contributes to proliferation in melanoma. Together, these results demonstrate the ability of integrative Bayesian approaches to identify novel candidate drivers with biological, and possibly therapeutic, importance in cancer. Effects of knockdown of two genes -TBC1D16 and RAB27A - were tested on four cell lines each, each of them with two different hairpins. As a control, we used a hairping targeting GFP. shGFP experiments were done in biological duplicates or more. The second WM1976-shGFP sample was identified as an outlier by a PCA analysis and was excluded from our analysis.

Project description:LSD1 (KDM1A) is a histone demethylase that plays both oncogenic and tumor suppressor roles in breast cancer. However, the exact contexts under which it plays these opposite roles remain largely elusive. By characterizing its role in normal and cancerous luminal mammary epithelial cells (MECs), here we show that LSD1 is essential for maintaining differentiation and survival of luminal cells. LSD1-inhibition by both genetic and pharmacological approaches increases invasion of luminal breast cancer cells. Mechanistically, we find LSD1 interacts with GATA3 and their common target genes are highly related to breast cancer. LSD1 positively regulates GATA3 expression and represses that of TRIM37, a histone H2A ubiquitin ligase and breast cancer oncoprotein. LSD1-loss leads to reduced expression of several cell junction genes (e.g., CDH1, VCL, CTNNA1), possibly via TRIM37-mediated repression. Collectively, our data suggest LSD1 largely plays a tumor suppressor role in luminal breast cancer and the increased MEC invasiveness associated with LSD1-inhibition can be blocked via TRIM37-inhibition.
