Project description:A Cartes d'Identité des Tumeurs (CIT) project from the french Ligue Nationale Contre le Cancer (http://cit.ligue-cancer.net) | Affymetrix HG-U133 Plus 2.0 : 188 tumor samples |Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are neuroendocrine tumors occuring in the context of inherited cancer syndromes in approximately 30% of cases, linked to germline mutations in VHL, RET, NF1, SDHA, SDHB, SDHC, SDHD, SDHAF2 or TMEM127 genes. Although progress has been made with regard to tumorigenesis mechanisms in pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma thanks to genome-wide expression studies, the question of a putative molecular distinction between VHL- and SDHx- on one hand, and RET- and NF1-related tumors on the other hand, remained to be addressed as well as the characterization of genetic events in sporadic tumors. With this purpose, 202 pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas, including 75 hereditary tumors, were investigated by expression profiling, array CGH and somatic mutation screening. The systematic characterization of somatic genetic events associated with tumor suppressor gene germline mutations in tumor tissues reveals a majority of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) but also point mutations and copy neutral LOH. Gene-expression signature defined the hereditary tumors according to their genotype. Especially, a complete sub-separation between SDHx- and VHL-related tumors was observed. Moreover, guided by the transcriptome classification and the LOH profile, somatic mutations in VHL or RET genes were identified in 14% of sporadic pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas. A genetic cause was found in 45.5% (92/202) of the large series of pheochromocytomas/paragangliomas analyzed. Regarding mutated genes, specific molecular pathways involved in tumorigenesis mechanisms are showed. Altogether, these new findings suggest that somatic mutation analysis would give important clues for personalized molecular target therapies.

Project description:Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) are neuroendocrine tumours affecting a range of body sites and have the highest degree of heritability of any cancer type. SDHA, SDHB, SDHC, SDHD and SDHAF2 (collectively SDHx) code for subunits of succinate dehydrogenase, an enzyme complex in the tricarboxylic cycle that converts succinate to fumarate. Mutations in all SDHx genes play a role in PPGL pathogenesis and completely abolish succinate dehydrogenase enzymatic activity causing intracellular accumulation of oncometabolites which competitively inhibit 2-oxoglutarate-dependent oxygenases. This is a family of enzymes includes TET DNA demethylases and Jumonji C (JmjC) domain-containing histone demethylates. We and others have found that the inhibition of DNA demethylation leads to profound global DNA hypermethylation which influences expression of genes responsible for important clinical characteristics of these tumours but cannot explain the full spectrum of transcriptomic changes. We profiled histone PMTs to complement DNA methylation data and fully characterise the epigenome of these tumours.

Project description:Pheochromocytomas are neural crest-derived tumors that arise from inherited or sporadic mutations in at least six independent genes: RET, VHL, NF1, and subunits B, C and D of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH). The proteins encoded by these multiple genes regulate distinct functions. To identify molecular interactions between the distinct pathways we performed expression profiling of a large cohort of pheochromocytomas. We show here a functional link between tumors with VHL mutations and those with disruption of the genes encoding for succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) subunits B (SDHB) and D (SDHD). A transcription profile of reduced oxidoreductase is detected in all three of these tumor types, together with an angiogenesis/hypoxia profile typical of VHL dysfunction. The oxidoreductase defect, not previously detected in VHL-null tumors, is explained by suppression of the SDHB protein, a component of mitochondrial complex II. The decrease in SDHB is also noted in tumors with SDHD mutations. Gain-of-function and loss-of-function analyses show that the link between hypoxia signals (via VHL) and mitochondrial signals (via SDH) is mediated by HIF1?. These findings explain the shared features of pheochromocytomas with VHL and SDH mutations and suggest an additional mechanism for increased HIF1? activity in tumors.

Project description:Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL) are rare neuroendocrine, usually benign tumors. Currently, for these neoplasms the only reliable criterion of malignancy is the presence of metastases. The aim of the present study was to identify molecular markers that can distinguish malignant from benign PPGL. An mRNA expression array was performed on 40 benign and 11 malignant PPGL. Genes showing a significantly different expression between benign and malignant PPGL with a ratio ? 4 were selected. Differentially expressed genes were confirmed by qRT-PCR and subsequently tested in an independent validation series (4 benign and 4 malignant) by qRT-PCR. Finally, immunohistochemistry was performed for the validated genes on Tissue Micro Arrays, which included 100 PPGL (87 benign and 13 malignant). Ten genes, which were significantly differentially expressed between benign and malignant tumors (False Discovery Rates <0.05), were selected from the mRNA expression array data. Differential expression of Interleukin 13 Receptor Alpha 2 and Contactin 4 was confirmed (p<0.05) and validated by qRT-PCR. However, at the protein level, only Contactin 4 appeared to be significantly overexpressed in malignant tumors (58% in malignant versus 17% in benign; p<0.05). No difference in the immunohistochemical staining for Interleukin 13 Receptor Alpha 2 was observed between benign and malignant PPGL. Contactin 4 expression appears to be associated with malignancy in pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas, and may be predictive of malignant behavior.
