MiRNA expression in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC)

ABSTRACT: The involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in cancer and their potential as biomarkers of diagnosis, prognosis and response to therapy is becoming increasingly appreciated. The etiology of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is predominantly associated with the synergistic effects of tobacco and alcohol use, as well as Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) infection, which embodies a distinct clinical and biological phenotype. We sought to examine whether the profile of miRNAs in HNSCC varies based on HPV status, and to identify specific miRNAs altered in head and neck carcinogenesis. Total RNA was isolated from 16 HNSCC fresh frozen primary tumors, 5 fresh frozen non-diseased head and neck epithelial tissues, and 2 HNSCC cell lines. The miRNA profile of 662 individual miRNAs in these tissues was examined by microarray. 18 miRNAs are significantly altered in their expression between normal tissues and HNSCC tumors and 5 miRNAs are identified as significantly differentially expressed between HPV-positive (HPV+) and HPV-negative (HPV-) tumors. A striking difference in expression pattern of miRNA was also observed between primary tissues and cell lines. These data suggest that the pattern of miRNA expression may be reflective of disease etiology, and may be useful in the realm of diagnostic biomarkers defining broadly responsive prevention and treatment strategies for HNSCC. These data also suggest that cultured tumor cell lines may be inappropriate for novel miRNA biomarker identification. Keywords: miRNA; Disease-state analysis

Integration of p16/HPV DNA status with a 24-miRNA-defined molecular phenotype improves clinically relevant stratification of head and neck cancer patients

Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) driven by human papillomavirus (HPV) generally have a more favourable prognosis. We hypothesized that HPV-positive HNSCC may be identified based on a miRNA signature according to their specific molecular pathogenesis and are characterized by a unique transcriptome compared to HPV-negative HNSCC. We characterized the miRNA-expression patterns of the tumors from 229 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients by Agilent miRNA microarrays in order to define a HPV-predicting miRNA signature.

Identification of a subgroup of head and neck cancers lacking numerical chromosomal aberrations

Project description:ABSTRACT Two major subgroups of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) are currently distinguished based on etiology and pattern of genetic alterations; tumors with biologically active human papillomavirus (HPV) and tumors without. It is at present unclear whether additional genetically distinct subgroups exist within HPV-negative HNSCC. Aim of this study is to genetically classify HNSCC without HPV involvement and to correlate the genetically defined classes to tumor and patient characteristics. By means of array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) we determined DNA copy number variation in thirty-nine HPV-negative, but further unselected HNSCC. Unsupervised analysis of aCGH data distinguished two genetic groups in HPV-negative HNSCC, one characterized by a low level of chromosomal alterations (N=9), and another by a high level of chromosomal alterations (N=30). Absence of chromosomal aberrations was significantly associated with wild-type TP53, a low level of alcohol consumption, a female gender and a better prognosis. The tumors were negative for microsatellite instability. The discovery of this new class of HNSCC with unique genetic and clinical characteristics has important consequences for future basic and clinical studies. All DNAs are isolated from fresh frozen HNSCC specimen. All tissue specimens were microdissected to obtain at least 90% tumor DNA. All sampels are hybridized against a pool of reference DNA of normal individuals of the opposite gender.

MiRNA array based, miRNA expression profiles of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma patients

Project description:MiRNA expression profiles were successfully examined through expression profiling of a total of 656 miRNAs between 2 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tissues (C) and their paired adjacent normal mucousal tissues (AN). In the study presented here, 2 head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tissues (C) and their paired adjacent normal mucousal tissues (AN) were examined by miRNA array

Expression data from HPV(-) and HPV(+) squamous cell carcinoma cell lines

Project description:Oncogenic human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are associated with nearly all carcinomas of the uterine cervix and have also become an increasingly important factor in the etiology of a subset of oropharyngeal tumors. HPV-associated head and neck cancers (HNSCCs) have a distinct risk profile and appreciate a prognostic advantage compared to HPV-negative HNSCC. We analyzed the genome-wide expression patterns in two HPV(+) and two HPV(-) squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) cell lines. The Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array platform was used to assess genome-wide expression differences between the HPV(+) and HPV(-) cell lines utilizing the RMA normalization package available for R. Cell lines analyzed: UM-SCC-4, UM-SCC-47, UM-SCC-74A, and CaSki.

Gene expression profiling of HPV-negative oropharyngeal cancers and Normal benign uvula, tonsil

Project description:Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the fifth most common malignancy worldwide with an annual mortality rate of 200,000. About 90% of HNC can be classified as head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), of which approximately 75% are attributed to alcohol and tobacco consumption and 25 are associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), predominantly HPV16. HPV-associated OPC have better prognosis and a more favorable response to therapy as compared to HPV-negative tumors. Differences in risk factors, age of presentation, clinical behavior and gene expression profiles indicate that HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors develop via different molecular mechanisms and are biologically distinct. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPC) and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues and determine what biological processes and pathways are affected in HPV-negative OPCs. ANALYSIS 6: Two-condition, one-color experiment: HPV-negative oropharyngeal tumor samples and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues. Biological replicates: 16 HPV negtive samples and 4 Normal samples.
