Combination of cadherin-17 and SATB homeobox 2 serves as potential optimal makers for the differential diagnosis of pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma and metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma (PEAC), a rare type of non-small cell lung cancer, has similar histological and immunohistochemical morphology to colorectal adenocarcinoma. Cadherin-17 (CDH17) and SATB homeobox 2 (SATB2) immunoexpression have recently been demonstrated in colorectal adenocarcinoma. In this study, we evaluated the value of CDH17 and SATB2 in the diagnosis of pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma and metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma.A total of 13 PEAC cases and 27 metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma cases were enrolled in our cohort study. We analyzed the expressions of CK7, CK20, CDX-2, villin, cadherin-17 (CDH17), and SATB homeobox 2 (SATB2) using immunohistochemistry. Staining intensity and percentage of positive-staining cells were recorded. Sensitivity and specificity values for immunostains, individually and in combination, were computed and compared.Combining CDH17 and SATB2 resulted in high sensitivity (76.92%) and specificity (100%). In our study, the use of CK7+, napsin A+, TTF-1+, napsin A+TTF-1+ in combination with CDH17-/SATB2- had a higher area under the curve compared to the combination CDH17-/SATB2-. However, no significant differences were observed between the combination CDH17-/SATB2- and other combinations (P>0.05).In combination, CDH17 and SATB2 serve as potential optimal markers for the differential diagnosis of PEAC and metastatic colorectal adenocarcinoma.

Project description:Pulmonary enteric adenocarcinoma (PEAD) is a rare non-small cell lung cancer subtype. It is poorly characterized and cannot be distinguished from metastatic colorectal or upper gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas (ADCs) by means of routine pathological methods. As DNA methylation patterns are known to be highly tissue specific, we aimed to develop a methylation-based algorithm to differentiate these entities. To this end, genome wide methylation profiles of 600 primary pulmonary, colorectal and upper gastrointestinal ADCs obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database were used as a reference cohort to train a machine learning algorithm. The resulting classifier correctly classified all samples from a validation cohort consisting of 680 primary pulmonary, colorectal and upper gastrointestinal ADCs from TCGA and the GEO database, demonstrating the ability of the algorithm to reliably distinguish these three entities. We then analyzed DNA methylation data of 15 PEADs as well as four pulmonary metastases and four primary colorectal ADCs with the algorithm. All 15 PEADs were reliably classified as primary pulmonary tumors and all four metastases as well as all four primary colorectal ADC samples were identified as primary colorectal ADCs. In a t-distributed stochastic neighbor embedding analysis, the PEAD samples did not form a separate methylation subclass but rather diffusely intermixed with other pulmonary ADCs. Additional characterization of the PEAD series using fluorescence in-situ hybridization, next generation sequencing and copy number analysis revealed KRAS mutations in nine of 15 samples (60%) and a high number of structural chromosomal changes. Except for an unusually high rate of chromosome 20 gain (66.7%) the molecular data was mostly reminiscent of standard pulmonary ADCs. In conclusion, we provide sound evidence of the pulmonary origin of PEAD and in addition provide a publicly available machine learning based algorithm to reliably distinguish PEAD from metastatic colorectal cancer and upper gastrointestinal adenocarcinomas.
