Whole genome expression data from human urinary bladder cancer

ABSTRACT: At diagnosis approximately 75% of bladder urothelial carcinomas are non muscle invasive bladder cancers (Ta, T1 and Tis), 20% are muscle invasive bladder cancer (T2-T4) and 5% are already metastatic. Non muscle invasive bladder cancers are characterized by tumor recurrence in 60% to 85% of cases and, therefore, long-term followup is needed. The current standard methods to detect and monitor bladder cancer are cystoscopy and cytology. Cystoscopy is an invasive method and cytology is hampered by low sensitivity, especially for low grade tumors. So there is need to develop reliable and noninvasive methods to detect and predict bladder cancer biological behavior. So we have performed high density oligonucleotide microarray for discovery of new molecular markers to diagnose and predict the outcome of bladder cancer.

Project description:This study aimed to identify the genetic signatures associated with disease prognosis in bladder cancer. We used 165 primary bladder cancer samples, 23 recurrent non-muscle invasive tumor tissues, 58 normal looking bladder mucosae surrounding cancer and 10 normal bladder mucosae for microarray analysis. Hierarchical clustering was used to stratify the prognosis-related gene classifiers. For validation, real-time reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) of top-ranked 14 genes was performed. On unsupervised hierarchical clustering using prognosis related gene-classifier, tumors were divided into 2 groups. The high risk gene signatures had significantly poor prognosis compared to low risk gene signatures (P<0.001 by the log-rank test, respectively). The prognosis-related gene classifiers correlated significantly with recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (hazard ratio, 4.09; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.94 to 8.64; P<0.001), and progression (hazard ratio, 23.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.91 to 114.30; P<0.001), cancer-specific survival (hazard ratio, 29.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.47 to 246.98; P=0.002) and overall survival (hazard ratio, 23.33; 95% confidence interval [CI], 4.97 to 109.50; P<0.001) of muscle invasive bladder cancer (p < 0.001, respectively). No patient with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer experienced cancer progression in low risk gene signature group. Prognosis-related gene classifiers validated by RT- PCR showed identical results. Prognosis related gene-classifiers provided strong predictive value for disease outcome. These gene classifiers could assist in selecting patients who might benefit from more aggressive therapeutic intervention or surveillance. Keywords: Gene expression, Bladder cancer, Prognosis 165 primary bladder cancer samples and 23 recurrent non-muscle invasive tumor tissues from 14 patients were taken in the Chungbuk National University Hospital. Only histologically verified transitional cell carcinoma samples were selected. Simultaneously 58 normal looking bladder mucosae surrounding cancer were obtained during the operation, which were histologically confirmed normal. Also, 10 normal bladder mucosae were obtained from patients with benign disease. The normal controls were determined to be free of cancer after revealing no malignant cells on urine cytology and no observable bladder cancer on cystoscopic examination during operation for their diseases, and were histologically reconfirmed normal.
