Breast Cancer Methylomes Establish an Epigenomic Foundation for Metastasis

ABSTRACT: Cancer-specific changes in DNA methylation can alter genetic stability, genomic structure, and gene expression. Promoter CpG island methylation can result in transcriptional silencing and plays an important role in the oncogenic process. We used genome-wide analysis to characterize the methylomes of breast cancers with diverse metastatic behavior. Here, we describe the identification of novel groups of breast tumors characterized by the presence or absence of coordinate hypermethylation at a large number of genes, demonstrating the existence of a breast-CpG island methylator phenotype (B-CIMP). B-CIMP imparts a distinct epigenomic profile and is a strong determinant of metastatic potential.

Gene Expression Samples (GSM647057-GSM647077): Twenty-one breast cancer primary samples were analyzed. There are 10 CIMP positive and 11 CIMP negative samples. Methylation Profiling Samples (GSM651372-GSM651410): Thirty-nine breast cancer primary samples were analyzed. There are 17 CIMP positive and 22 CIMP negative samples.

Methylated CpG island amplification (MCA) microarray analysis of human colorectal tumors

Project description:The concept of the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) in colorectal cancer (CRC) is widely accepted, though the timing of its occurrence and its interaction with other genetic defects are not fully understood. Our aim in this study was to unravel the molecular development of CIMP cancers by dissecting their genetic and epigenetic signatures in precancerous and malignant colorectal lesions.

Array CGH analysis of human colorectal tumors

Project description:The concept of the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) in colorectal cancers (CRCs) is widely accepted, though the timing of its occurrence and its interaction with other genetic defects early during carcinogenesis remains largely unknown. Our aim was to uncover the molecular evolution of CIMP CRCs through integrative analysis of endoscopic, histological and molecular signatures in precancerous and malignant colorectal lesions.

DNA methylation instability by BRAF-mediated TET silencing and lifestyle-exposure divides colon cancer pathways [BrafV637E knock-in ]

Project description:Promoter hypermethylation divides colon cancers into subtypes with and without a CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP). Here, we performed genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of colonic normal and tumor tissues to dissect development of CpG hypermethylation in colon carcinogenesis. This identified age-environment related versus genetically driven CpG hypermethylation, the latter being associated with CIMP cancers. We found a strong association between BRAFV600E mutation and downregulation of the DNA demethylases TET1 and TET2. Expression of BRAFV600E in CIMP cancer cells suppressed TET1 transcription, which was sufficient to establish hypermethylation at CIMP genes promoters, including that of TET2. This phenotype was reverted by the BRAFV600E inhibitor vemurafenib. Thus, BRAFV600E, via impairment of cytosine de-methylation, is a genetic driver of CIMP in colon tumorigenesis.
