Project description:Spontaneous canine head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) represents an excellent model of human HNSCC but is greatly understudied. To better understand and utilize this valuable resource, we performed a pilot study that represents its first genome-wide characterization by investigating 12 canine HNSCC cases, of which 9 are oral, via high density array comparative genomic hybridization and RNA-seq. The analyses reveal that these canine cancers recapitulate many molecular features of human HNSCC. These include analogous genomic copy number abnormality landscapes and sequence mutation patterns, recurrent alteration of known HNSCC genes and pathways (e.g., cell cycle, PI3K/AKT signaling), and comparably extensive heterogeneity. Amplification or overexpression of protein kinase genes, matrix metalloproteinase genes, and epithelial–mesenchymal transition genes TWIST1 and SNAI1 are also prominent in these canine tumors. This pilot study, along with a rapidly growing body of literature on canine cancer, reemphasizes the potential value of spontaneous canine cancers in HNSCC basic and translational research.

Project description:Tumors frequently found in dogs include canine oral tumors, either cancerous or noncancerous. The bloodstream is an important route for tumor metastasis, particularly for late-stage oral melanoma (LOM) and late-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (LOSCC). The present study aimed to investigate serum peptidome-based biomarkers of dogs with early-stage oral melanoma, LOM, LOSCC, benign oral tumors, chronic periodontitis and healthy controls, using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry.

Project description:To identify the activated tyrosine kinase signaling pathways in HNSCC, we carried out phosphotyrosine profiling using a panel of HNSCC cell lines compared to a normal oral keratinocyte. A total of 61 unique phosphosites were identified across these cell lines. Dual-specificity tyrosine-(Y)-phosphorylation regulated kinase 1A (DYRK1A) was one of the kinases hyperphosphorylated at Y321 in all the HNSCC cell lines compared to the normal oral cell line OKF6/TERT1. Inhibition of DYRK1A using its specific siRNA and inhibitor resulted in a decrease in the invasion and colony formation ability of the HNSCC cell lines. Further, the treatment of mice bearing HNSCC xenograft tumors with DYRK1A inhibitor (harmine) showed regression of tumor growth. Our results demonstrate that DYRK1A could be a novel therapeutic target in HNSCC.

Project description:Spontaneously occurring canine mammary cancer represents an excellent model of human breast cancer, but is greatly understudied. To better use this valuable resource, we performed whole-genome sequencing, whole-exome sequencing, RNA-seq, and/or high-density arrays on twelve canine mammary cancer cases, including seven simple carcinomas and four complex carcinomas. Canine simple carcinomas, which histologically match human breast carcinomas, harbor extensive genomic aberrations, many of which faithfully recapitulate key features of human breast cancer. Canine complex carcinomas, which are characterized by proliferation of both luminal and myoepithelial cells and are rare in human breast cancer, seem to lack genomic abnormalities. Instead, these tumors have about 35 chromatin-modification genes downregulated and are abnormally enriched with active histone modification H4-acetylation, whereas aberrantly depleted with repressive histone modification H3K9me3. Our findings indicate the likelihood that canine simple carcinomas arise from genomic aberrations, whereas complex carcinomas originate from epigenomic alterations, reinforcing their unique value. Canine complex carcinomas offer an ideal system to study myoepithelial cells, the second major cell lineage of the mammary gland. Canine simple carcinomas, which faithfully represent human breast carcinomas at the molecular level, provide indispensable models for basic and translational breast cancer research.

Project description:This study represents a proteomic resource for HNSCC and SQCLC with quantitative protein expression data for 7800 proteins and provides a proteomic diagnostic signature for classification for undetermined secondary lung tumors in HNSCC patients. By quantitative mass-spectrometry-based proteomics, we characterized a cohort of 63 squamous cell carcinomas of the lung (SQCLC), 49 of the head and neck region (HNSCC) and 51 HNSCC-correlated lung tumors with squamous cell histology that evolved in the course of the disease.

Project description:Aberrant activation of splicing regulators contributes to oncogenic transformation of cells by modulating the alternative splicing events of key oncogenes. Phosphorylation of splicing factors affects subcellular localization and activity of these proteins. Studies have shown a close association between altered phosphorylation of molecules involved in splicing machinery and cancer. We carried out proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines using tandem mass tag (TMT) labeling approach followed by titanium dioxide-based phosphopeptides enrichment method. LC-MS/MS analysis resulted in the identification of 4,920 phosphosites corresponding to 2,288 proteins in six HNSCC cell lines compared to a normal oral cell line; OKF6/TERT1. Among the proteins identified, 23 kinases were found to be hyperphosphorylated in all HNSCC cell lines compared to the normal oral cell line.

Project description:While hyperthermia has been shown to be an effective adjuvant anti-tumor treatment to radiotherapy, we still do not completely understand effects thermoradiotherapy on tumor phenotype or how these effects vary among different tumors. Here, we performed gene expression analysis in 22 spontaneous canine sarcomas before and after the first hyperthermia treatment that was administered as an adjuvant to radiotherapy. Diffusion weighted MRI (DWI) was done prior to the treatment course and at the end of therapy. Using supervised analysis, we identified significant correlation of DWI with several genes involved in VEGF signaling, telomerase, Wnt pathways and fatty acid synthesis. When the change of gene expression caused by treatment was examined, we found that thermoradiotherapy led to the induction of well known cycle regulators p21 and mdm2 and reduced cellular proliferation in most treated tumors. We also identified two tumor subtypes with dramatic differences in the gene expression response and treatment response at the end of therapy. In the subtype with strong expression and increase in DWI, the mRNA level of hsp70, POT1 and centrosomal proteins was significantly higher. In the other subtype with modest response to hyperthermia, levels of CD31, vWF and transferrin was noted to be significantly higher. It is also possible to build a predictive model based on the pre-treatment gene expression to predict the likely treatment response of the tumors. The differential expression between the two tumor subtypes was used to interrogate connectivity map and identify linkages to an HDAC inhibitor and geldanamycin, an HSP90 inhibitor. Both HDAC inhibitors and hsp90 inhibitor geldanamycin are shown to synergerize with thermoradiotherapy in reducing cell survival in clonogenic assays. Taken together, the gene expression studies of hyperthermia-treated spontaneous canine tumors shed mechanistic insights into the heterogeneity of thermoradiotherapy response and identified pathway-targeting compounds with synergistic potential to enhance its therapeutic benefits. To our knowledge, this is one of the first successful attempts to link genomic and functional imaging changes together. This is the first demonstration of using such associations to understand the connection between cellular and physiologic responses to treatment. gene expression analysis in 22 spontaneous canine sarcomas before and after the first hyperthermia treatment that was administered as an adjuvant to radiotherapy.
