This study aims to perform a comprehensive genomic analysis to assess the influence of overexpression of MYO1E in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) and whether there are differences in survival and mortality risk in NSCLC patients depending on both DNA methylation and RNA expression of MYO1E. The DNA methylation probe cg13887966 was inversely correlated with MYO1E RNA expression in both LUAD and LUSC subpopulations showing that lower MYO1E RNA expression was associated with higher MYO1E DNA ...[more]

Project description:DNA Polymerase Theta (POLQ) is a DNA polymerase involved in error-prone translesion DNA synthesis (TLS) and error-prone repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs). In the present study, we examined whether abnormal POLQ expression may be involved in the pathogenesis of lung adenocarcinoma (LAC). First, we found overexpression of POLQ at both the mRNA and protein levels in LAC, using data from the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database and by immunohistochemical analysis of our LAC series. POLQ overexpression was associated with an advanced pathologic stage and an increased total number of somatic mutations in LAC. When H1299 human lung cancer cell clones overexpressing POLQ were established and examined, the clones showed resistance to a DSB-inducing chemical in the clonogenic assay and an increased frequency of mutations in the supF forward mutation assay. Further analysis revealed that POLQ overexpression was also positively correlated with Polo Like Kinase 4 (PLK4) overexpression in LAC, and that PLK4 overexpression in the POLQ-overexpressing H1299 cells induced centrosome amplification. Finally, analysis of the TCGA data revealed that POLQ overexpression was associated with an increased somatic mutation load and PLK4 overexpression in diverse human cancers; on the other hand, overexpressions of nine TLS polymerases other than POLQ were associated with an increased somatic mutation load at a much lower frequency. Thus, POLQ overexpression is associated with advanced pathologic stage, increased somatic mutation load, and PLK4 overexpression, the last inducing centrosome amplification, in LAC, suggesting that POLQ overexpression is involved in the pathogenesis of LAC.

Project description:BackgroundANLN has been identified as an actin-binding protein and previous studies have suggested that ANLN is associated with actin cytoskeletal dynamics. Lung adenocarcinoma is a poor prognosis tumor. Metastasis is a very common complication and is regarded as the main cause for an unsatisfactory treatment outcome. Whether ANLN is involved in the metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma is unknown.MethodsWe performed immunohistochemical staining and analyzed the correlation between the expression level and pathological parameters. We tested the migration and invasion of A549 and PC9 cell after interference with ANLN expression by Transwell and scratch wound healing assays. Protein expression of E-cadherin, vimentin and N-cadherin were detected using Western blotting and immunofluorescence staining. The same experiment was also tested after overexpression of ANLN.ResultsThe metastasis of patients with high expression of ANLN was significantly more than that of patients with low expression of ANLN. In vitro, after interfering with ANLN expression, E-cadherin and vimentin expression were increased and N-cadherin expression was decreased in A549 and PC9 cells. Migration and invasion ability of A549 and PC9 cells were decreased,vice versa.ConclusionOur study suggests that the expression of ANLN in lung adenocarcinoma is associated with metastasis of cancer cells. ANLN may be involved in the metastasis of lung adenocarcinoma by promoting epithelial mesenchymal transformation of tumor cells.

Project description:IntroductionRBM10 is one of the frequently mutated genes in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD). Previous studies have confirmed that RBM10 could suppress the disease progression and cell proliferation in LUAD, but its loss-of-function mutations are more frequent in early-stage disease and decrease with the advancement of the clinical stage. This is contradictory to its role of tumor suppressor. Here, we conducted a systematic analysis to elucidate whether there was other potential biological significance of RBM10 deficiency during the progression of LUAD.Materials and methodsThe whole exome sequencing data of 39 tumor samples from early-stage LUADs (GGN cohort) and genomic and transcriptome data of the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) LUAD cohort (TCGA_LUAD cohort) and a Chinese LUAD cohort (CHOICE_ADC cohort) were first obtained. Systematic bioinformatic analyses were then conducted to determine gene expression signature, immune infiltration levels and predicted immunotherapy response. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was also conducted to validate the result of immune infiltration.ResultsThe mutation rate of RBM10 was significantly higher in the GGN cohort than that in the TCGA_LUAD and CHOICE_ADC cohorts. In both TCGA_LUAD and CHOICE_ADC cohorts, multiple immune related pathways were markedly enriched in RBM10 deficient group. Further analyses showed that tumors with RBM10 mutations displayed higher TMB, and LUADs with RBM10 deficiency also showed higher HLA expression levels, including many HLA class I and II molecules. Additionally, many immune cells, including myeloid dendritic cells, macrophages, neutrophils and CD8+T cells, showed higher infiltration levels in LUADs with RBM10 deficiency. Finally, some immune checkpoint molecules, such as PD-L1 and TIM-3, were highly expressed in RBM10 deficient population and the predicted immunotherapy response was calculated through TIDE algorithm, showing that IFNG expression, MSI score and CD8 expression were higher in RBM10 deficient group, while MDSC and M2 macrophage were lower in RBM10 deficient group.ConclusionOur study demonstrates that RBM10 deficient LUADs show higher HLA expression and immune cell infiltration, and some immune checkpoint molecules are also highly expressed. In brief, RBM10 deficiency could enhance anti-tumor immunity in LUAD.

Project description:BackgroundThe cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 3 (CDKN3) has been perceived as a tumour suppressor. Paradoxically, CDKN3 is often overexpressed in human cancer. It was unclear if CDKN3 overexpression is linked to alternative splicing variants or mutations that produce dominant-negative CDKN3.MethodsWe analysed CDKN3 expression and its association with patient survival in three cohorts of lung adenocarcinoma. We also examined CDKN3 mutations in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Moffitt Cancer Center's Total Cancer Care (TCC) projects. CDKN3 transcripts were further analysed in a panel of cell lines and lung adenocarcinoma tissues. CDKN3 mRNA and protein levels in different cell cycle phases were examined.ResultsCDKN3 is overexpressed in non small cell lung cancer. High CDKN3 expression is associated with poor overall survival in lung adenocarcinoma. Two CDKN3 transcripts were detected in all samples. These CDKN3 transcripts represent the full length CDKN3 mRNA and a normal transcript lacking exon 2, which encodes an out of frame 23-amino acid peptide with little homology to CDKN3. CDKN3 mutations were found to be very rare. CDKN3 mRNA and protein were elevated during the mitosis phase of cell cycle.ConclusionsCDKN3 overexpression is prognostic of poor overall survival in lung adenocarcinoma. CDKN3 overexpression in lung adenocarcinoma is not attributed to alternative splicing or mutation but is likely due to increased mitotic activity, arguing against CDKN3 as a tumour suppressor.

Project description:BackgroundThis study was conducted to evaluate the prognostic and recurrent impact of EGFR mutation status in resected pN0M0 lung adenocarcinoma with consideration of the histological subtype.MethodsFollowing retrospective analysis of whole 474 consecutive pathological N0M0 lung adenocarcinoma patients, the prognostic significance of EGFR mutation status was evaluated in limited 394 subjects. Overall survival and recurrence-free interval (RFI) were estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using a log-rank test. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using Cox proportional hazard models.ResultsThe five-year RFI was 85.7% and 93.3% for EGFR positive (n = 176) and negative (n = 218) cases, respectively (hazard ratio [HR] 1.992, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.005-3.982; P = 0.048). Following the exclusion of specific subtypes free from recurrence or EGFR mutation (adenocarcinoma in situ, minimally invasive adenocarcinoma, and invasive mucinous adenocarcinoma), the five-year RFI was obviously poorer in EGFR positive compared to negative cases (80.7% and 92.1%, respectively; HR 2.163, 95% CI 1.055-4.341; P = 0.035). Multivariate analysis excluding the specific subtypes confirmed that male sex, age, current or Ex-smoking status, pleural invasion, and EGFR-positive status were independently associated with shorter RFI. No significant differences in five-year overall survival were found between the EGFR mutation positive and negative groups (88.7% and 93.7%, respectively; HR 1.630, 95% CI 0.787-3.432; P = 0.2).ConclusionEGFR mutations are associated with recurrence in pN0M0 lung adenocarcinoma. EGFR mutation status and histological subtype should be considered when evaluating the risk of recurrence in resected lung adenocarcinoma patients.

Project description:BackgroundAs a fundamental process internalizing molecules from the plasma membrane, endocytosis plays a crucial role in podocyte biology. Our previous study has identified that overexpression of Myole may enhance podocyte endocytosis. However, its potential mechanism has been not well understand. Thus, we aimed to analyze whether albumin endocytosis by mouse glomerular podocytes is dependent on Myo1e expression. Also, we aimed to elucidate whether the underlying mechanism is mediated by Dynamin.MethodsFirstly, mouse podocyte cells (MPC5) were treated with different concentrations of FITC-bovine serum albumin (BSA). The fluorescence intensity and cell viability were detected by flow cytometry and MTT assays, respectively. Afterwards, the optimal concentration of FITC-BSA was determined. Secondly, MPC5 cells were treated with Myole overexpression or knockdown. Cell morphology was observed under microscope. Immunofluorescence assay was used to determine the expression of F-actin. The protein expression of nephrin and podocin was detected by western blot. Flow cytometry was used to detect MPC5 cell apoptosis with annexin V. Finally, MPC5 cells were treated with Myole overexpression and/or Dynasore (a GTPase inhibitor of Dynamin). The fluorescence intensity was detected using flow cytometry assay.ResultsMPC5 endocytosis BSA was elevated with a concentration-dependent manner. MTT results showed that MPC5 cell viability was inhibited with a concentration-dependent manner. Myo1e overexpression promoted podocyte endocytic FITC-BSA, which was contrary to its knockdown. Under microscope, after inhibition of Myo1e, podocyte foot process fusion was observed. Myo1e overexpression promoted the expression of cytoskeleton F-actin and podocyte-specific molecules (nephrin and podocin) in podocyte endocytic FITC-BSA. Furthermore, we found that Myo1e promoted the apoptosis of podocytes. Dynasore attenuated the increase in endocytosis of FITC-BSA induced by Myo1e overexpression, suggesting that podocytes might mediate albumin endocytosis via Myo1e-Dynamin-Albumin.ConclusionOur findings revealed that overexpression of Myo1e promotes albumin endocytosis in mouse glomerular podocyte endocytic albumin mediated by Dynamin.

Project description:The roles and mechanisms of T-cell receptor (TCR)-associated transmembrane adaptor 1 (TRAT1) in lung adenocarcinoma (LAC) have not yet been reported in the relevant literature. Therefore, this study aimed to understand the roles and mechanisms of TRAT1 in LAC using bioinformatics and in vitro experiments. TRAT1 expression levels in LAC samples were analysed using various databases. TRAT1 co-expressed genes were acquired by the correlation analysis of LAC tissues. The functional mechanisms and protein network of TRAT1 co-expressed genes were analysed using bioinformatics analysis. The expression of TRAT1 was activated in LAC cells, and the roles of TRAT1 overexpression in the growth and migration of cancer cells was investigated using flow cytometry, Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8), and migration and invasion assays. The relationship between TRAT1 overexpression, the immune microenvironment, and RNA modification was evaluated using correlation analysis. TRAT1 expression levels were significantly abnormal at multiple mutation sites and were related to the prognosis of LAC. TRAT1 co-expressed genes were involved in cell proliferation, adhesion, and differentiation, and TRAT1 overexpression significantly inhibited cell viability, migration, and invasion and promoted apoptosis of A549 and H1299 cells, which might be related to the TCR, B cell receptor (BCR), MAPK, and other pathways. TRAT1 expression levels were significantly correlated with the ESTIMATE, immune, and stromal scores in the LAC microenvironment. Additionally, TRAT1 expression levels were significantly correlated with the populations of B cells, CD8 T cells, cytotoxic cells, and other immune cells. TRAT1 overexpression was significantly correlated with the expression of immune cell markers (such as PDCD1, CD2, CD3E) and genes involved in RNA modification (such as ALKBH1, ALKBH3, ALKBH5). In conclusions, TRAT1 overexpression inhibited the growth and migration of LAC cells, thereby delaying cancer progression, and was correlated with the LAC microenvironment and RNA modifications.

Project description:PurposeKRAS G12C is the most common KRAS mutation in primary lung adenocarcinoma. Phase I clinical trials have demonstrated encouraging clinical activity of KRAS G12C inhibitors in the metastatic setting. We investigated disease-free survival (DFS) and tumor genomic features in patients with surgically resected KRAS G12C-mutant lung adenocarcinoma.Experimental designPatients who underwent resection of stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma and next-generation sequencing (NGS) were evaluated. Exclusion criteria were receipt of induction therapy, incomplete resection, and low-quality NGS. Mutations were classified as KRAS wild-type (KRAS wt), G12C (KRAS G12C), or non-G12C (KRAS other). DFS was compared between groups using the log-rank test; factors associated with DFS were assessed using Cox regression. Mutual exclusivity and cooccurrence, tumor clonality, and mutational signatures were assessed.ResultsIn total, 604 patients were included: 374 KRAS wt (62%), 95 KRAS G12C (16%), and 135 KRAS other (22%). Three-year DFS was not different between KRAS-mutant and KRAS wt tumors. However, 3-year DFS was worse in patients with KRAS G12C than KRAS other tumors (log-rank P = 0.029). KRAS G12C tumors had more lymphovascular invasion (51% vs. 37%; P = 0.032) and higher tumor mutation burden [median (interquartile range), 7.0 (5.3-10.8) vs. 6.1 (3.5-9.7); P = 0.021], compared with KRAS other tumors. KRAS G12C mutation was independently associated with worse DFS on multivariable analysis. Our DFS findings were externally validated in an independent The Cancer Genome Atlas cohort.ConclusionsKRAS G12C mutations are associated with worse DFS after complete resection of stage I-III lung adenocarcinoma. These tumors harbor more aggressive clinicopathologic and genomic features than other KRAS-mutant tumors. We identified a high-risk group for whom KRAS G12C inhibitors may be investigated to improve survival.

Project description:The lung allocation score (LAS) was initiated in May 2005 to allocate lungs based on medical urgency and posttransplant survival. The purpose of this study was to determine if there is an association between an elevated LAS at the time of transplantation and increased postoperative morbidity and mortality.The United Network for Organ Sharing provided de-identified patient-level data. Analysis included lung transplant recipients aged >or= 12 years who received transplants between April 5, 2006, and December 31, 2007 (n = 3,836). Recipients were stratified into three groups: LAS < 50 (n = 3,161, 83.87%), LAS 50 to 75 (n = 411, 10.9%), and LAS >or= 75 (n = 197, 5.23%), referred to as low LAS (LLAS), intermediate LAS (ILAS), and high LAS (HLAS), respectively. The primary outcome was posttransplant graft survival at 1 year. Secondary outcomes included length of stay and in-hospital complications.HLAS recipients had significantly worse actuarial survival at 90 days and 1 year compared with LLAS recipients. When transplant recipients were stratified by disease etiology, a trend of decreased survival with elevated LAS was observed across all major causes of lung transplant. HLAS recipients were more likely to require dialysis or to have infections compared with LLAS recipients (P < .001). In addition, length of stay was higher in the HLAS group when compared with the LLAS group (P < .001).HLAS is associated with decreased survival and increased complications during the transplant hospitalization. Whereas the LAS has improved organ allocation through decreased waiting list deaths and waiting list times, lower survival and higher morbidity among HLAS recipients suggests that continued review of LAS scoring is needed to ensure optimal long-term transplant survival.

Project description:BackgroundEsophageal cancer is a deadly cancer with 5-year survival <20%. Although multiple risk factors for esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) including obesity, GERD and smoking have been identified, these risk factors do not fully explain the rising incidence of EAC. In this study, we evaluated the association between prior history of tonsillectomy and EAC. Our goal was to determine whether tonsillectomies were more frequent in patients with EAC (cases) than in our thoracic surgery controls.MethodsCases included 452 esophagectomy cases, including 396 with EAC and 56 who underwent esophagectomy for Barrett's esophagus (BE) with high grade dysplasia (HGD). 1,102 thoracic surgery patients with surgical indications other than dysplastic BE or esophageal cancer represented the controls for our analysis. The association of tonsillectomy and HGD/EAC were primarily evaluated by using univariate tests and then verified by logistic regression analysis. Baseline demographics, medical history, and thoracic surgery controls were compared by using χ2 tests or 95% CIs. Significant risk factors were considered as covariates in the multivariate models while evaluating the association between tonsillectomy and HGD/EAC. P-values or odds ratios were estimated with 95% confidence limits to identify significances which was more appropriate.ResultsTonsillectomy was more common in cases than controls and was found to have a significant association with esophageal cancer (19.9% vs. 12.7%; p-value = 0.0003). This significant association persisted after controlling for other known risk factors/covariates.ConclusionA prior history of tonsillectomy was significantly associated with HGD/EAC and may represent an independent risk factor for the development of EAC. However, the underlying biology driving this association remains unclear.
