Integrating whole-exome sequencing and scRNA-seq reveal the characteristic in one clear cell renal cell carcinoma sample arising in the setting of VHL disease

ABSTRACT: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) arising in the setting of von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) disease is a rare type of kidney cancer and features VHL germline mutation. This type of ccRCC is rarely characterised at the single-cell level. In this work, whole-exome sequencing and single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) were conducted on one ccRCC sample with VHL disease. Integrating scRNA-seq and whole-exome sequencing data by the Seurat package, we determined the relationship between single-cell transcriptome features and gene mutations. Immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were performed on one VHL germline mutation ccRCC and six non-VHL germline mutation ccRCC samples. We revealed the gene expression characteristics of ccRCC with VHL germline mutation. The frameshift mutations in OBP2A and BCR1, and the elevated expression of COX7A1 were most specific characteristics of ccRCC tumor cells with VHL mutation. And the extensive infiltration of exhausted T cells was the characteristic of tumor microenvironment. In addition, we discovered the relationship between genetic mutations and immune checkpoints. This work highlights the single-cell transcriptome and DNA-level information of this rare ccRCC and will provide more genetic insights and references into this rare disease.

DNA Copy-Number Alterations in clear-cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) Tumors and Tumorgrafts for samples deficient in BAP1 or PBRM1

Project description:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) exhibits some unusual features and genes commonly mutated in cancer are rarely mutated in clear-cell RCC (ccRCC), the most common type. The most prevalent genetic alteration in ccRCC is the inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene VHL. Using whole-genome and exome sequencing we discovered BAP1 as a novel tumor suppressor in ccRCC that shows little overlap with mutations in PBRM1, another recent tumor suppressor. Whereas VHL was mutated in 81% of the patients (142/176), PBRM1 was lost in 58% and BAP1 in 15% of the patients analyzed. All these tumor suppressor genes are located in chromosome 3p, which is partially or completely lost in most ccRCC patients. However, BAP1 but not PBRM1 loss was associated with higher Fuhrman grade and, therefore, poorer outcome. Xenograft tumors (tumorgrafts) implanted orthotopically in mice retained >92% of mutations and exhibited similar DNA copy number alterations to corresponding primary tumors. Thus, after inactivation of VHL, the acquisition of a mutation in BAP1 or PBRM1 defines a different program that might alter the fate of the patient. Our results establish the foundation for an integrated pathological and molecular genetic classification of about 70% of ccRCC patients, paving the way for subtype-specific treatments exploiting genetic vulnerabilities. The genomic DNA of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) primary tumors, tumors growing in immunodeficient mice (tumorgrafts), and normal samples were labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix SNP arrays 6.0.

CNV data from 133 ccRCC samples

Project description:Approximately 70% of clear cell renal cell carcinoma are characterised by the biallelic inactivation of VHL on chromosome 3p. ELOC-mutated renal cell carcinoma with biallelic ELOC inactivation on chromosome 8q are considered a novel subtype of renal cancer possessing a morphological overlap with ccRCC; however, the frequency and consequences of ELOC alterations in wtVHL and mutVHL is unclear. In this study, we characterise 123 renal tumours with clear cell morphology with known VHL mutation status to assess morphological and molecular consequences of ELOC inactivation. Using Oncoscan and whole exome sequencing we identify 18 ELOC deleted RCC, three of which contain ELOC mutations resulting in the biallelic inactivation of ELOC. Biallelic ELOC and biallelic VHL aberrations were mutually exclusive, although two ELOC-mutated RCC showed monoallelic VHL alterations. Using High Ambiguity Driven Biomolecular Docking we report a novel ELOC variant containing a duplication event disrupting ELOC-pVHL interaction alongside the frequently seen Y79C alteration. Using HRM mass spectrometry we show RCC with biallelic ELOC alterations have significantly reduced ELOC expression but similar CAIX and VEGFA expression when compared to classical ccRCC with VHL inactivation. These data demonstrate that RCC with ELOC and VHL alterations have comparable downstream effects with similar pathways to ccRCC tumourigenesis indicating that both entities are closely related.

VHL Substrate Transcription Factor ZHX2 As An Oncogenic Driver In Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma

Project description:Inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) E3 ubiquitin ligase protein is a hallmark of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). Identifying how pathways affected by VHL loss contribute to ccRCC remains challenging. We used a genome-wide in vitro expression strategy to identify proteins that bound VHL only when hydroxylated. Zinc fingers and homeoboxes 2 (ZHX2) was found as a VHL target and its hydroxylation allowed VHL to regulate its protein stability. Tumor cells from ccRCC patients with VHL loss-of-function mutations usually had increased ZHX2 amount and nuclear localization. Functionally, depletion of ZHX2 inhibited VHL-deficient ccRCC cell growth in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, integrated ChIP-Seq and microarray analysis showed that ZHX2 promoted NF-kB activation. These studies reveal ZHX2 as a potential therapeutic target for ccRCC.

Gene expression changes in response to VHL-reintroduction in metastatic 786-M1A cells.

Project description:Inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor gene, VHL, is an archetypical tumor-initiating event in clear cell renal carcinoma (ccRCC) that leads to the activation of hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIFs). However, VHL mutation status in ccRCC is not correlated with clinical outcome. Here we show that during ccRCC progression, cancer cells exploit diverse epigenetic alterations to empower a branch of the VHL-HIF pathway for metastasis, and the strength of this activation is associated with poor clinical outcome. By analyzing metastatic subpopulations of VHL-deficient ccRCC cells, we discovered an epigenetically altered VHL-HIF response that is specific to metastatic ccRCC. Focusing on the two most prominent pro-metastatic VHL-HIF target genes, we show that loss of polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2)-dependent histone H3 Lys27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) activates HIF-driven chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4 (CXCR4) expression in support of chemotactic cell invasion, whereas loss of DNA methylation enables HIF-driven cytohesin 1 interacting protein (CYTIP) expression to protect cancer cells from death cytokine signals. Thus, metastasis in ccRCC is based on an epigenetically expanded output of the tumor-initiating pathway. Gene expression data from metastatic 786-M1A cells with and without reintroduced HA-VHL. The empty vector, pBabe-puro, was used as control.

IGR_VHL_GE

Project description:VHL is a tumor suppressor gene involved in the oxygen-sensing pathway whose germline mutations predispose to distinct phenotypes. Heterozygous mutations predispose to von Hippel-Lindau disease characterized by the development of multiple tumors (including hemangioblastomas, renal cell carcinomas and pheochromocytomas)1-3. More recently, a specific VHL-R200W mutation was shown to be responsible for Chuvash Polycythemia in homozygous carriers whereas heterozygous individuals have no clinical manifestation4. We report here a family carrying, on the same allele, VHL mutations characteristics of the two types of disease (a Chuvash polycythemia-R200W mutation and a von Hippel-Lindau disease-R161Q mutation). Genotyping, modeling analysis and functional studies, including transcriptomic profile of the distinct mutants validated for the first time on direct HIF target genes, show a gradual capacity of the VHL mutants to regulate the hypoxia responsive pathway that correlate with the severity of the developed phenotype. Our study provide original results that illuminate genotype/phenotype correlations in von Hippel-Lindau disease.

RNAseq transcriptome analysis of THP-1 macrophages activated by VHL-deficient kidney tubule cells

Project description:Clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most prevalent subtype of renal cell carcinoma (up-to 70% of all RCC types). There is a very close causal correlation between ccRCC and inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) located on chromosome 3p25‐26. Up to 80% of sporadic ccRCC carry genomic mutations or epigenetic inactivation of VHL and nearly 100% familial ccRCC (in VHL disease) contain VHL deficiency. Accumulating evidence has indicated that ccRCC arises at the site of chronic inflammation and this solid tumor contains a substantial number of infiltrated immune cells. This indicates that ccRCC may be induced by the interaction between kidney tubule cells carrying inactivated VHL gene and the inflammatory microenvironment. In this study we characterized the interaction between VHL-deficient kidney tubule cells and macrophages with relevance to ccRCC formation, and found that human macrophages induced by VHL-deficient kidney tubule cells exhibit distinct gene expression program containing the signatures of tumor-associated macrophages that can promote ccRCC progression.
