Project description:Clinical heterogeneity of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) reflected in unequal outcome of treatment is poorly defined in molecular level, and molecular subtypes and their associated biomarkers have not been established to improve prognostification and treatment of HCC. Using microarray technologies, we analyzed gene expression profiling data from HCC patients, uncovered mesenchymal subtype, and identified gene expression signature associated with mesenchymal phenotype of HCC.

Project description:To explore the target genes of long noncoding RNA lncTCF7, we established lncTCF7-silenced HCC primary CSC cells and conducted transcriptome microarray analysis. We used microarrays to identify distinct gene expression underlying shCtrl and shlncTCF7 of hepatocellular carcinoma sample stem cells. We cultured shlncTCF7 and shCtrl cells from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) clinical sample, then hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to identify distinct target genes of lncTCF7 in liver cancer stem cells (CSCs).

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the most common malignancies worldwide. Understanding of the intratumoral heterogeneity of HCC is instructive for developing personalized therapy and molecular biomarkers. We applied whole exome sequencing to a total of 63 samples from 11 patients to resolve the genetic architecture and subclonal diversification. Notably, spatial genomic diversity was found in all 11 HCC cases, with 33% of the driver mutations being heterogeneous. Temporal dissection of mutational signatures suggested that exogenous and endogenous factors have different contributions in shaping the mutational spectrum during the development of HCC. Moreover, we observed extensive intratumoral epigenetic heterogeneity in HCC, and showed that integrative analysis of both genetic and epigenetic phylogenies could generate more robust resolution of clonal architecture than single profiling approach. Our results also demonstrated prominent epigenetic subclonal diversification even in a stable HCC genome. Together, these findings highlight the widespread intratumoral heterogeneity at both genomic and epigenomic levels in HCC, and provide important molecular foundation for better understanding of the biology and pathogenesis of this malignancy.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the main subtypes of primary liver cancer, which accounts for 75-85% of all cases [1]. Despite increasing availability of treatments for liver cancer, HCC clinical trials are not promising since most HCC patients are in an advanced stage of HCC at the time of diagnosis. Additionally, highly metastatic and recurrent phenotype aggravate poor prognosis of liver cancer [2]. Therefore, there is an urgent need to explore the underlying molecular mechanism in HCC progression.

Project description:Cancer stem cells (CSCs), a small population of cancer cells, have been considered to be the origin of cancer initiation, recurrence, and metastasis. Tumor microenvironment provides crucial signals for CSCs to maintain stem cell properties and promote tumorigenesis. Therefore, establishment of an appropriate cell culture system to mimic the microenvironment for CSC studies is an important issue. In this study, we grew colon and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells on chitosan membranes and evaluated the tumor progression by transwell migration, drug resistance, microarray, and RT-PCR analysis. We also evaluated the CSC properties by flow cytometry, sphere forming assay, luciferase reporter assay, western blot, and gene knockdown. Experimental results showed that culturing cancer cells on chitosan increased cell motility, drug resistance, quiescent population, self-renewal capacity, and the expression levels of stemness and CSC marker genes, such as OCT4, NANOG, CD133, CD44, and EpCAM. Furthermore, we demonstrated that chitosan might activate canonical Wnt/β-catenin-CD44 axis signaling in CD44positive colon cancer cells and noncanonical Wnt-STAT3 signaling in CD44negative HCC cells. In conclusion, chitosan as culture substrates activated the essential signaling of CSCs and promoted CSC properties. The chitosan culture system provides a convenient platform for the research of CSC biology and screening of anticancer drugs.

Using reverse phase protein arrays (RPPA) technologies, we analyzed protein expression profiling data from HCC patients, uncovered mesenchymal subtype, and identified gene expression signature associated with mesenchymal phenotype of HCC.

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) ranks sixth among the most common malignancies and fourth in mortality among all kinds of cancers in the world. Recent advances in early diagnosis and therapeutics have led to improved survival of HCC patients, but the recurrence and metastasis are still main reasons for the poor prognosis and high mortality of HCC. Many researches on the mechanism of HCC deterioration have uncovered the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) as a major trigger for HCC metastasis and invasion.In this study, in order to systematically investigate the dynamic site-specific glycosylation alterations associated with the EMT process of HCC, two hepatoma cell lines SMMC-7721 and HepG2 were treated using HGF and the cell proteins were harvested at six treatment time points. Using TMT-labeling, solid phase extraction and mass spectrometry, we not only detailly profiled N-glycoproteome of both cell lines at site-specific glycosylation level, but also dynamically quantified those intact glycopeptides among six increasing HGF-treated time points. By dynamically quantifying enriched glycopeptides and proteins among six HGF-treated time points in two cell lines, we identified 20 up-regulated intact glycopeptides during the process of EMT, with the majority changed at the glycosylation level instead of protein expression level. The site-specific glycosylation change of those glycoproteins was related to the process of EMT, which was further verified by a series of molecular biology methods, mass spectrometry, and migration and invasion assay in vitro.
