Project description:Introduction Mammographic density (MD), as assessed from film screen mammograms, is determined by the relative content of adipose, connective and epithelial tissue in the female breast. In epidemiological studies, a high percentage of MD confers a four to six fold risk elevation of developing breast cancer, even after adjustment for other known breast cancer risk factors. However, the biologic correlates of density are little known. Methods Gene expression analysis using whole genome arrays was performed on breast biopsies from 143 women; 79 women with no malignancy (healthy women) and 64 newly diagnosed breast cancer patients, both included from mammographic centres. Percent MD was determined using a previously validated, computerized method on scanned mammograms. Significance analysis of microarrays (SAM) was performed to identify genes influencing MD and generalized regression models were used to assess the independent contribution from different variables to MD. Results SAM-analysis identified 24 genes differentially expressed between samples from breasts with high and low MD. These genes included three uridine 5'-diphospho-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) genes and the oestrogen receptor gene (ESR1). These genes were down-regulated in samples with high MD compared to those with low MD. The UGT gene products, which are known to inactivate oestrogen metabolites, were also down-regulated in tumour samples compared to samples from healthy individuals. Several single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the UGT genes associated with the expression of UGT and other genes in their vicinity were identified. Conclusions Three UGT enzymes were lower expressed both in breast tissue biopsies from healthy women with high MD and in biopsies from newly diagnosed breast cancers. The association was strongest among young women and women using hormonal therapy. UGT2B10 predicts MD independently of age, hormone therapy and parity. Our results indicate that down-regulation of UGT genes in women exposed to female sex hormones is associated with high MD and might increase the risk of breast cancer. Gene expression analysis of breast biopsies from 143 women, 79 non-cancer (healthy women with no cancer who had a mammogram taken) and 64 breast cancer.

Project description:Genetics of Mammographic Density in Ashkenazi Jewish Women

Project description:Although high mammographic density (MD) is considered one of the strongest risk factors for invasive breast cancer, the genes involved in modulating this clinical feature are unknown. Histologically, areas of high MD are associated with low adipocyte content and high matrix content, both stromal phenotypes. We hypothesized that fibroblasts purified from low and high MD tissues would show gene expression differences responsible for these histologic differences. Fibroblasts were purified from disease-free breast tissue from 6 women with low MD (MD quartile 2) and 7 women with high MD (MD quartile 4). The fibroblasts were cultured for 3 to 6 passages before cells pellets were collected for this study.

Project description:High mammographic density (MD) is associated with a 4-6 times increase in breast cancer risk. MD often decreases over time, but little is known about the corresponding biological mechanisms. We obtained biopsies from breasts of healthy women at two different time points years apart. After RNA isolation, Agilent Sureprint G3 Human Gene Expression 8x60K microarrays were performed. Mammographic density was calculated based on mammograms. We explored associations between clinical parameters, MD and gene expression and performed microenvironment tissue subtyping. Gene expression data from previous biopsies are deposited separately.

Project description:Low-grade ovarian serous carcinomas are believed to arise via an adenoma-serous borderline tumor-serous carcinoma sequence. In this study, we found that advanced-stage, low-grade ovarian serous carcinomas both with and without adjacent serous borderline tumor shared similar regions of loss of heterozygosity. We then analyzed 91 ovarian tumor samples for mutations in TP53, BRAF, and KRAS. TP53 mutations were not detected in any serous borderline tumors (n = 30) or low-grade serous carcinomas (n = 43) but were found in 73% of high-grade serous carcinomas (n = 18). BRAF (n = 9) or KRAS (n = 5) mutation was detected in 47% of serous borderline tumors, but among the low-grade serous carcinomas (39 stage III, 2 stage II, and 2 stage I), only one (2%) had a BRAF mutation and eight (19%) had a KRAS mutation. The low frequency of BRAF mutations in advanced-stage, low-grade serous carcinomas, which contrasts with previous findings, suggests that aggressive, low-grade serous carcinomas are more likely derived from serous borderline tumors without BRAF mutation. In addition, advanced-stage, low-grade carcinoma patients with BRAF or KRAS mutation have a better apparent clinical outcome. However, further investigation is needed.

Gene expression analysis was performed on five serous borderline tumors with BRAF mutation and five serous borderline tumors without BRAF mutation randomly. RNA was extracted from microdissected tumor cells. Expression profiling was carried out with Affymetrix GeneChip Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 arrays
