RNA-seq Analysis of Differential Gene Expression in Obese Compared with Non-Obese Breast Cancer Patients

ABSTRACT: Breast cancer (BC), the most common malignant tumor type, ranked top in incidence with high prevalence and mortality among females worldwide. Obesity poses a serious public health issue worldwide, it consider as one of BC risk factors. Obesity has profound effects on cancer cell transcriptome that can affect the outcome of cancer therapy. The information regarding the potential effects of obesity on BC transcriptome to identify novel transcripts biomarker and pathways related to disease progression are still elusive. Therefore, the RNA-seq analysis was performed to investigate the whole blood differential epressed genes profile in the blood liquid biopsy of obese compared with non-obese BC patients to provide a better understanding of the biological status and shed new insights into potential molecular mechanisms interaction and biomarkers in the relationship between obesity and BC.

Subcutaneous adipose tissue from lean and obese subjects

Project description:Obtaining adipose tissue samples are paramount to the understanding of human obesity. We have examined the impact of needle-aspirated and surgical biopsy techniques on the study of subcutaneous adipose tissue (scAT) gene expression in both obese and lean subjects. Biopsy sampling methods have a significant impact on data interpretation and revealed that gene expression profiles derived from surgical tissue biopsies better capture the significant changes in molecular pathways associated with obesity. We hypothesize that this is because needle biopsies do not aspirate the fibrotic fraction of scAT; which subsequently results in an under-representation of the inflammatory and metabolic changes that coincide with obesity. This analysis revealed that the biopsy technique influences the gene expression underlying the biological themes commonly discussed in obesity (e.g. inflammation, extracellular matrix, metabolism, etc), and is therefore a caveat to consider when designing microarray experiments. These results have crucial implications for the clinical and physiopathological understanding of human obesity and therapeutic approaches. Keywords: subject and tissue biopsy technique comparison Tissue samples from lean and obese subjects were analyzed: total of 36 hybridizations. The goal was to compare the effect of biopsy sampling methods on global subcutaneous adipose tissue gene expression analyses. The following subject groups were used for the analysis: 9 lean subjects: needle biopsy 9 lean subjects: surgical biopsy 9 obese subjects: needle biopsy 9 obese subjects: surgical biopsy

Changes in Pdgfra-positive mesenchymal progenitors during muscle regeneration under normal and obese condition.

Project description:Worldwide increases in obese and elderly populations synergistically enhance the incidence of sarcopenia. Accumulation of intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) is considered to be a major problem whereby obesity leads to sarcopenic obesity and thus is a promising target for treating this emerging pathological condition. However, while sarcopenic obesity-associated IMAT is suggested to be originated from PDGFRα+ mesenchymal progenitors, processes of their adipogenesis remain largely unexplored. Here we investigated intracellular changes associated with these processes using scRNA-Seq analysis.

Skeletal muscle tissue RNA-Seq and RRBS in T2D, Obese and Active subjects

Project description:We performed RNA-Seq on skeletal muscle tissue in Active individuals, indivduals with obesity (Obese) and individuals with obesity and T2D (T2D) (n =6 per group). PCA of top ranked contributing genes show clear separation of the Active group from Obese and T2D with considerable overlap between Obese and T2D. Over-representation analysis highlighted that Active had an upregulation of genes related to respiration/mitochondrial capacity in comparison to Obese and T2D. RRBS was performed on skeletal muscle tissue from a subset of participants from each group (n = 3). Data was analyzed to reveal (DMS) differentially methylated sites located at differentially expressed genes related to mitochondrial respiration/function. Out of a combined 488 DMS related to mitochondrial related differentially expressed genes, 11% were significantly positively correlated with gene expression and 12% were significantly negatively associated with gene expression. Significantly correlated DMS were mainly located in the promoter and 1st intron region

Expression profiling of human adipose tissue in obese subjects

Project description:The molecular mechanisms by which obesity increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases are poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to identify candidate biomarkers overexpressed in adipose tissue of obese subjects that could link expanded fat mass to atherosclerosis. We compared gene expression profile in subcutaneous adipose tissue (scWAT) of 28 obese and 11 lean subjects using microarray technology. This analysis identified 240 genes significantly overexpressed in scWAT of obese subjects. The genes were then ranked according to the correlation between gene expression and body mass index (BMI). In this list, the elastolytic cysteine protease cathepsin S was among the highly correlated genes. RT-PCR and Western blotting confirmed the increase in cathepsin S mRNA (P=0.006) and protein (P<0.05) in obese scWAT. The circulating concentrations of cathepsin S were also significantly higher in obese than in nonobese subjects (P<0.0001). Both cathepsin S mRNA in scWAT and circulating levels were positively correlated with BMI, body fat, and plasma triglyceride levels. In addition, we show that the proinflammatory factors, lipopolysaccharide, interleukin-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α increase cathepsin S secretion in human scWAT explants. This study identifies cathepsin S as a novel marker of adiposity. Since this enzyme has been implicated in the development of atherosclerotic lesions, we propose that cathepsin S represents a molecular link between obesity and atherosclerosis.

Expression data from murine colon tumors induced by azoxymethane. Tumors from control, obese, formerly obese, or sulindac-treated mice.

Project description:Obesity is associated with an increased risk of colon cancer. Our current study examines whether weight loss and/or treatment with the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) sulindac suppresses the protumor effects of obesity in a mouse model of colon cancer. Azoxymethane-treated male FVB/N mice were fed a low-fat diet (LFD) or high-fat diet (HFD) for 15 weeks, then HFD mice were randomized to remain on HFD (obese) or switch to LFD (formerly obese (FOb-LFD)). Within the control (LFD), obese, and FOb-LFD groups, half the mice were also randomized to start sulindac treatment (140 ppm in the diet). All mice were euthanized seven weeks later. FOb-LFD mice had intermediate levels of body weight, lower than obese but higher than control mice (P<0.05). Sulindac did not affect body weight. Obese mice had greater tumor multiplicity and burden than all other groups (P<0.05). Transcriptomic profiling indicated that both weight loss and sulindac modulate the expression of tumor genes related to invasion and may promote a more anti-tumor immune landscape. Furthermore, the fecal microbes Prevotella and Akkermansia muciniphila, both known to be elevated in colorectal cancer patients, were positively correlated with tumor multiplicity and reduced by sulindac in obese mice. In sum, either moderate weight loss or sulindac treatment completely reversed the effects of chronic obesity on colon tumorigenesis. Our findings suggest that an investigation regarding the effects of NSAID treatment on colon cancer risk and/or progression in obese individuals is warranted, particularly for those unable to achieve moderate weight loss.

Differential blood biomarkers and PBMC transcriptome profiles in normal-weight and obese individuals

Project description:The aim of study was to investigate correlation bewteen peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) transcriptome profiles and plasma lipid profiles of Korean adult with varying BMI. In Korean, BMI cut-off points are 18.5~22.9 kg/m2 (normal range), M-bM-^IM-% 23 kg/m2 (overweight), M-bM-^IM-% 25 kg/m2 (obese), M-bM-^IM-% 30 kg/m2 (severely obese). Thus, the obese group was subdivided into mildly obese (BMI 25~27 kg/m2, OA) and highly obese (BMI 27~30 kg/m2, OB). This study indicates that lipid, glucose and inflammation metabolism-related gene expressions were altered according to cahnge of varing phenotype biomarkers such as BMI, plasma total-C, TG, FFA and HDL-C. Thus, blood biomarkers and PBMC gene expression profiles identified in this study may be useful as indicative biomarkers for obese susceptibility in Korean adult as well as response to various intervention for treating obesity. Total RNA of PBMCs was obtained from normal weight, obese person and mRNA expression was measured.

Differences in metabolic biomarkers in the blood and gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells among normal weight, mildly obese, and moderately obese subjects

Project description:Objectives: We compared metabolic biomarkers in the blood and PBMC gene expression profiles among normal weight, mildly obese, and moderately obese Korean adult men. Design: Subjects were classified as normal weight (BMI, 18.5~23 kg/m2), mildly obese (BMI, 25~27.5 kg/m2), and moderately obese (BMI, 27.5~30 kg/m2). Results: High leptin, lipids (except LDL- and HDL-cholesterol), and apolipoprotein B levels and low adiponectin and HDL-cholesterol levels were present in the plasma of both mildly and moderately obese subjects. Circulating levels of inflammatory cytokines (TNF-α and IL-6) and markers of insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and liver damage were altered in moderately obese subjects but not mildly obese subjects. PBMC transcriptome data showed enrichment of pathways involved in energy metabolism, insulin resistance, bone metabolism, cancer, inflammation, and fibrosis in both mildly and moderately obese subjects. Signaling pathways involved in oxidative phosphorylation; triglyceride synthesis; carbohydrate metabolism; insulin, mTOR, FOXO, RAP1, RAS, and TGF-β signaling; and ECM–receptor interaction were enriched only in moderately obese subjects, indicating that changes in PBMC gene expression profiles according to metabolic disturbances were associated with the development and/or aggravation of obesity. In particular, upregulation of 8 genes (FLT3LG, LTB, IL23A, CD19, CPT1B, AXIN2, CACNA1L, RPRM) and downregulation of 2 genes (CCL4L1, LPAR5) were observed only in mildly obese subjects. Six genes (CXCR5, NFKBIA, BIRC3, TNFAIP3, DDIT3, PDE4B) and 4 genes (CX3CR1, HSPA1A, CACNA2D3, APAF1) were up- and down-regulated, respectively, in both mildly and moderately obese subjects. These results suggested that these genes could be used as early or stable biomarkers for diagnosing and treating obesity-associated metabolic disturbance.

Immune checkpoint blockade reprograms systemic immune landscape and tumor microenvironment in obesity-associated breast cancer [tumor]

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) has improved outcomes in some cancers. A major limitation of ICB is that a majority of patients fail to respond, which is partly attributable to immunosuppression. Obesity appears to improve immune checkpoint therapies in some cancers but impacts on breast cancer (BC) remain unknown. In obese mice fed an obesogenic or lean controls on a low fat diet, mice are injected with BC cells andtreated with anti-PD-1 or control. Obesity leads to immunosuppression systemically in tumor-free mice that is exacerbated in tumor-bearing mice. Obesity augments tumor incidence and progression. Anti-PD-1 induces regression in lean mice and potently abrogates progression in obese mice. Anti PD-1 significantly reduces immunosuppressive cells and elevates anti-tumor immune cells. Lamb2, downregulated by anti-PD1, significantly predict patient survival. Last, we identify a microbial signature associated with anti-PD-1 efficacy. In sum, anti-PD-1 is highly efficacious in obese mice by reinvigorating durable antitumor immunity.
