Project description:Age-standardized incidence rates for pancreatic cancer (PC) in men have increased by 25% from 1957 to 2011 in Finland. The average age of diagnosis for PC is 69 years in Nordic males, whereas the average age of diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis (CP) is 40-50 years, but the cases overlap in age. By radiology the evaluation of a pancreatic mass, i.e. the differential diagnosis between CP and PC is often difficult. Preoperative needle biopsies are difficult to obtain and are demanding to interpret. New blood based biomarkers are needed. The accuracy of the only established biomarker for PC, CA 19-9 is rather poor in differentiating between benign and malignant mass of the pancreas. In this study, we have performed mass spectrometry HDMSE analysis of serum samples from patients with chronic pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer. We have quantified 652 proteins and performed detailed statistical analysis such as principal component analysis, orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis and receiver operating curve analysis.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer has a dismal prognosis partly due to late diagnosis, where a reliable non-invasive diagnosis is urgently wanted. We here explored, whether serum-derived PaCa exosomes may provide a diagnostic means and microRNA may be advantageous. Exosomes were collected from the serum of 133 patients with pancreatic cancer, 22 patients with non-malignant pancreatic tumors, 25 patients with chronic pancreatitis and 20 healthy donors. Exosomes were isolated by ultracentrifugation and used qRT-PCR for miRNA quantification and miRCURY LNA microRNA Array for miRNA analysis.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is the fourth leading cause of cancer death. Lack of early detection technology for pancreatic cancer invariably leads to a typical clinical presentation of incurable disease at initial diagnosis. Oral fluid (saliva) meets the demand for non-invasive, accessible, and highly efficient diagnostic medium. The level of salivary analytes, such as mRNA and microflora, vary upon disease onset; thus possess valuable signatures for early detection and screening. In this study, we evaluated the performance and translational utilities of the salivary transcriptomic and microbial biomarkers for non-invasive detection of early pancreatic cancer. Two biomarker discovery technologies were used to profile transcriptome in saliva supernatant and microflora in saliva pellet. The Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array was used to discover altered gene expression in saliva supernatant. The Human Oral Microbe Identification Microarray (HOMIM) was used to investigate microflora shift in saliva pellet. Biomarkers selected from both studies were subjected to an independent clinical validation using a cohort of 30 early pancreatic cancer, 30 chronic pancreatitis and 30 healthy matched-control saliva samples. Two panels of salivary biomarkers, including eleven mRNA biomarkers and two microbial biomarkers were discovered and validated for pancreatic cancer detection. The logistic regression model with the combination of three mRNA biomarkers (ACRV1, DMXL2 and DPM1) yielded a ROC-plot AUC value of 0.974 (95% CI, 0.896 to 0.997; P < 0.0001) with 93.3% sensitivity and 90% specificity in distinguishing pancreatic cancer patients from healthy subjects. The logistic regression model with the combination of two bacterial biomarkers (Neisseria elongata and Streptococcus mitis) yielded a ROC-plot AUC value of 0.895 (95% CI, 0.784 to 0.961; P < 0.0001) with 96.4% sensitivity and 82.1% specificity in distinguishing pancreatic cancer patients from healthy subjects. Importantly, the logistic regression model with the combination of four biomarkers (mRNA biomarkers, ACRV1, DMXL2 and DPM1; bacterial biomarker, S. mitis) could differentiate pancreatic cancer patients from all non-cancer subjects (chronic pancreatitis and healthy control), yielding a ROC-plot AUC value of 0.949 (95% CI, 0.877 to 0.985; P < 0.0001) with 92.9% sensitivity and 85.5% specificity. This study comprehensively compared the salivary transcriptome and microflora between pancreatic cancer and control subjects. We have discovered and validated eleven mRNA biomarkers and two microbial biomarkers for early detection of pancreatic cancer in saliva. The logistic regression model with four salivary biomarkers can detect pancreatic cancer specifically without the complication of chronic pancreatitis. This is the first report demonstrating the value of multiplex salivary biomarkers for the non-invasive detection of a high impact systemic cancer. Keywords: Salivary biomarker, pancreatic cancer, early detection, salivary transcriptome, salivary microflora This study, which was approved by the UCLA Institutional Review Board, started sample collection in February 2006 and ended in April 2008. It had a discovery and verification phase, followed by an independent validation phase. All patients with clinically diagnosed early or locally advanced pancreatic cancer, chronic pancreatitis and matched healthy control were recruited from the UCLA Medical Center. The controls were matched for gender, age, ethnicity and smoking history. We chose early and locally advanced pancreatic cancers because they were considered early stage diseases. All patients were recently diagnosed with primary disease, and had not received any prior treatment in the form of chemotherapy, radiotherapy, surgery, or alternative remedies. No subjects had a history of prior malignancy, immunodeficiency, autoimmune disorders, hepatitis, or HIV infection. Written informed consent was obtained from all patients who agreed to serve as saliva donors. Unstimulated saliva samples were collected and processed as previously described. The saliva bank of pancreatic disease at the UCLA Dental Research Institute has collected 283 saliva samples since 2006. Of these, 114 samples, from 42 pancreatic cancer patients, 30 chronic pancreatitis patients and 42 healthy control subjects, met the following eligibility criteria: the disease subjectsâ?? samples were obtained immediately after primary diagnosis from patients without evidence of metastasis; the saliva sample was free of blood (Table 1 in accompanying manuscript). Of the 114 samples, 12 pancreatic cancer samples and 12 healthy control samples were chosen for the discovery and verification phase. The transcriptomic approach profiled the saliva supernatant samples from 12 pancreatic cancer patients and 12 healthy control subjects using the Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array platform.

Project description:BACKGROUND & AIMS: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is usually incurable. Contrary to genetic mechanisms involved in PDAC pathogenesis, epigenetic alterations are ill defined. Here we determine the contribution of epigenetically silenced genes to the development of PDAC. METHODS: We investigated methylated DNAs from PDACs, chronic pancreatitis and normal pancreatic tissues using Methyl-CpG immunoprecipitation followed by microarray hybridization. Promoter methylation of selected genes was confirmed with the Epityper assay. Expression levels were evaluated by quantitative RT-PCR. WNK2 was further investigated in tissue microarrays, methylation analysis of early pancreatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PanINs), mouse models for PDAC and pancreatitis, re-expression studies after demethylation, and cell growth assays using WNK2 overexpression. RESULTS: A total of 3.8% of 27.800 interrogated CpG islands were hypermethylated in PDAC versus normal and chronic pancreatitis tissues. Hypermethylation was confirmed in 12 out of 13 selected islands and was associated with gene silencing in 4 of them. The most prominently hypermethylated gene, WNK2, was further investigated. Demethylation assays confirmed the link between methylation and expression. WNK2 hypermethylation was higher in pancreatic tumor cells than in surrounding inflamed tissues and was observed in PanIN lesions as well as in a PDAC mouse model. WNK2 mRNA and protein expression were lower in PDAC and chronic pancreatitis compared to normal tissues both in patients and mouse models. Overexpression of WNK2 led to a reduced cell growth and WNK2 expression in tissues correlated negatively with the expression of pERK1/2, a downstream target of WNK2 responsible for cell proliferation. CONCLUSIONS: WNK2 is downregulated by promoter hypermethylation early in PDAC pathogenesis and may support tumor cell growth via the ERK-MAPK pathway. 3 types of pancreatic tissue samples: 5 normals, 2 chronic pancreatitis, 7 tumors (PDAC)

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is one of the most lethal cancers, with a 5 year-survival rate below 5%. Lack of curative treatment and failure of targeted therapies urge the need to identify novel efficient therapeutic strategy. Achievement of this goal will be obtained through the identification of diagnosis and prognosis biomarkers, identification of novel therapeutic targets and the knowledge of resistance mechanisms induced by these targeted therapies. PI3K/Akt/mTOR signalling, one of the most altered in cancers, is overactivated in pancreatic cancer and correlated with poor prognosis. In the Vertebrates, the family of class I phosphoinoitide-3-kinase (PI3K) includes four isoforms: p110α, p110β, p110δ and p110γ. Although they all perform the same biochemical reaction (phosphorylation of PIP2 in PIP3, a membrane lipid messenger), each isoform were demonstrated to have specific physiological roles. Global PI3K inhibitors are currently being tested in phase I/II clinical trials in advanced solid cancers, but show at maximal doses tolerated a limited therapeutic benefit. Isoform-selective PI3K inhibitors are currently the most promising agents because, at low doses, they are more efficient to inhibit one PI3K isoform, and thus, less toxic than pan-PI3K inhibitors. The objectives of this thesis are to determine isoform-specific PI3K roles and the therapeutic interest to target one or more isoforms in pancreatitis and PDAC, by the identification of isoform-specific pathways and the study of adaptive responses induced by targeting of one or all isoforms of PI3K. In a first part, my work has highlighted, validated and completed results obtained in the team, to demonstrate the significance of PI3K/Akt signalling in two physiological processes: chronic pancreatitis and initiation of pancreatic carcinogenesis. Precisely, the overactivation of PI3K/Akt pathway measured on human and murine chronic pancreatitis samples is correlated with a specific p110α activation gene expression signature. Moreover, genetic and pharmacologic inactivation of p110α during pancreatic chronic inflammation or cancerogenesis (by oncogenic Kras) prevents the formation of acino-ductal metaplasia, structures at the origin of pancreatic carcinogenesis initiation. Development of in vitro acino-ductal transdifferentiation protocol allowed me to demonstrate that only p110α is necessary at this initial step of pancreatic carcinogenesis by the regulation of Rho small GTPases, further regulating actin remodelling. In the second part, by a phosphoproteomic-based approach, I quantified PI3K downstream phosphorylation-regulated targets in a pancreatic cancer cell line treated or not by a pan- or selective PI3K inhibitor at different times. I demonstrated for the first time existence of targets, signalling pathways and adaptive responses regulated by each PI3K isoform. To conclude, all these results demonstrate the rational of combinatorial use of isoform-specific PI3K inhibitors in patients with pancreatic cancer for better clinical response

Project description:Autoimmune pancreatitis (AIP) is a recently identified disease of the pancreas with unknown etiology and antigens. The aim of this study was to determine new target antigens and differentially regulated genes and proteins by means of transcriptomics and proteomics and to validate them in patients with autoimmune pancreatitis. Here we report a distinct downregulation at the RNA and protein level of pancreatic proteases (anionic trypsinogen, cationic trypsinogen, mesotrypsinogen, elastase IIIB) and pancreatic stone protein in autoimmune pancreatitis in comparison to alcohol-induced chronic pancreatitis.

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most important histological subtype of pancreatic cancer, accounting for approximately 90% of all pancreatic cancers.Acinar to ductal metaplasia (ADM) is a recently recognized, yet less well-studied, precursor lesion of PDAC developed in the setting of chronic pancreatitis. Through digital spatial mRNA profiling, we compared ADM and adjacent PDAC tissues from patient samples to unveil the bridging genes, bridging signaling pathway and bridging molecular function during the malignant transformation of pancreatitis.
