Discovery of Novel Melanoma Predisposing Mutations by Exome Sequencing

ABSTRACT:

Melanoma risk shows clear heritability, but the inherited genetic factors remain largely unknown. Rare high risk mutations in CDKN2A, CDK4, BAP1 and TERT have been described but these variants, in aggregate, account for less than 50% of the kindreds reporting a family history of melanoma. This project will seek to identify new genes which may confer melanoma susceptibility. Identifying melanoma predisposing mutations can provide new biological insights and may impact important clinical decision making regarding treatment, surveillance and preventive approaches. Hereditary melanoma patients (defined as those individuals with multiple primary melanomas and those patients with a family history of melanoma) were collected from melanoma clinics at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston and the A. Sygrous Hospital in Athens, Greece.

All exome sequencing was performed at the Broad Institute of Harvard and MIT; samples sequence capture was performed using Agilent SureSelect Human All Exon Kit v2 and sequencing was performed on an Illumina HiSeq 2000 or 2500.

Human serum LC-MS/MS for long-term persistent COVID-19 patients

Project description:The emergence of a new type of COVID-19 patients, who were retested positive after hospital discharge with long-term persistent SARS-CoV-2 infection but without COVID-19 clinical symptoms (hereinafter, LTPPs), poses novel challenges to COVID-19 treatment and prevention. Why was there such a contradictory phenomenon in LTPPs? To explore the mechanism underlying this phenomenon, we performed quantitative proteomic analyses using the sera of 12 LTPPs (Wuhan Pulmonary Hospital), with the longest carrying history of 132 days, and mainly focused on seven LTPPs without hypertension (LTPPs-NH).

Capturing the biological impact of the melanoma susceptibility genes CDKN2A and MC1R in cocultured keratinocytes and melanocytes

Project description:Germline mutations in CDKN2A and/or red hair colour variants in MC1R genes are associated with an increased susceptibility to develop cutaneous melanoma. To investigate the impact of germinal p.G101W CDKN2A mutation and MC1R variants on gene expression and transcription profiles associated to skin cancer and melanoma in particular, we set-up primary skin cultures from twins belonging to the melanoma prone-families with and without these genomic features. were analyzed using expression array methodology. Overall, 1535 transcripts were deregulated in CDKN2A mutated cells, finding overexpression of immunity-related genes (HLA-DPB1, CLEC2B, IFI44, IFI44L, IFI27, IFIT1, IFIT2, SP110 and IFNK) and downregulation of genes playing a role in the Notch signaling pathway. 3570 transcripts were deregulated in carriers of MC1R variants. In this case, upregulated genes were involved in oxidative stress and DNA damage pathways as well as in neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s, Alzheimer and Huntington. In contrast, downregulated genes were associated with pigmentation synthesis/transport and angiogenesis. By using a coculture system, this study identified key molecular functions and/or pathways that are deregulated due to alterations in melanoma susceptibility genes which in turn, could be involved in initiation/progression of the disease. 12 samples total. Several experimental groups: with and without genomic features (CDKN2A, MC1R).

Proteomics of murine melanoma tumor cells upon sphingosine kinase-1 inhibition

Project description:In order to assess the impact of sphingosine kinase-1 (SK1) expression on melanoma growth, stable SK1 knockdown cells were generated by shRNA, using Yumm 1.7 cells derived from spontaneous murine melanoma driven by Braf activation as well as Pten and Cdkn2a inactivation. Two cell lines silenced for SK1 (shSK1(1) and shSK1(2)) were obtained.

Rare germline copy number variations and disease susceptibility in familial melanoma

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.

Leukocytes methylome of melanoma patients with and without CDKN2A mutations

Project description:We investigated if the presence of germline CDKN2A mutations or the occurrence of cutaneous melanoma could induce constitutive genome-wide DNA methylation changes. We analyzed the leukocytes’ methylomes of eight patients carrying CDKN2A mutations, eight sporadic melanoma patients and compared them with healthy controls (n=8). The genome-wide DNA methylation profiling was obtained using the Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip platform (Illumina).

Affymetrix SNP array data for Non-Smoking Female Lung Cancer in Taiwan

Project description:Genome-Wide Screening of Genomic Alterations and Transcriptional Modulation in Non-Smoking Female Lung Cancer in Taiwan Sixty-one pairs of cancer and normal lung tissue specimens from non-smoking females were collected at National Taiwan University Hospital and Taichung Veterans General Hospital. The selection criteria of clinical specimens depend on pathology report, physical examination and cigarette-smoking history. Surgical lung tissue specimens were immediately snap-frozen in liquid N2 and stored at -80 °C. Surgical specimens would be further processed for RNA and DNA extraction. Only those samples passed quality controls were processed for gene expression profiling analysis and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis respectively.

Genome-wide linkage analysis in Spanish melanoma-prone families [Round2]

Project description:The main genetic factors for familial melanoma remain unknown in more than 75% of families. CDKN2A is mutated in around 20% of melanoma-prone families. Other high-risk melanoma susceptibility genes explain less than 3% of families studied to date. We performed the first genome-wide linkage analysis in CDKN2A-negative Spanish melanoma-prone families to identify novel melanoma susceptibility loci. We included 68 individuals from 2, 3 and 6 families with 2, 3 and at least 4 melanoma cases. We detected a locus with significant linkage evidence at 11q14.1-q14.3, with a maximum het-TLOD of 3.449 (rs12285365:A>G), using evidence from multiple pedigrees. The genes contained by the subregion with the strongest linkage evidence were: DLG2, PRSS23, FZD4 and TMEM135. We also detected several regions with suggestive linkage evidence (TLOD>1.9) (1q, 6p, 7p, 11q, 12p, 13q) including the region previously detected in melanoma-prone families from Sweden at 3q29. The family specific analysis revealed three loci with suggestive linkage evidence for family #1: 1q31.1-q32.1 (max. TLOD 2.447), 6p24.3-p22.3 (max. TLOD 2.409) and 11q13.3-q21 (max. TLOD 2.654). Future next generation sequencing studies of these regions may allow the identification of new melanoma susceptibility genetic factors.
