Project description:The BRCA1 tumor suppressor gene encodes a multi-domain protein for which several functions have been described. These include a key role in homologous recombination repair (HRR) of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), which is shared with two other high-risk hereditary breast cancer suppressors, BRCA2 and PALB2. Although both BRCA1 and BRCA2 interact with PALB2, BRCA1 missense variants affecting its PALB2-interacting coiled-coil domain are considered sequence variants of uncertain clinical significance (VUS). Using genetically engineered mice, we now show that a BRCA1 coiled-coil domain VUS, Brca1 p.L1363P, disrupting the interaction with PALB2 leads to embryonic lethality and loss of breast cancer suppression. Brca1 p.L1363P mammary tumors develop with a similar latency as Brca1-null tumors, but show different histopathological features and more stable DNA copy number profiles. Nevertheless, Brca1 p.L1363P mammary tumors are HRR-incompetent and responsive to cisplatin and PARP inhibition.

Project description:Inhibitors of PARP (PARPis) represent the first clinically approved anticancer agents targeting the DNA damage response. They have been approved as monotherapy and/or in combination and maintenance settings in different tumor types, including high-grade ovarian carcinomas. Their efficacy was first underlined in cells with functional inactivation of BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes and this strong preclinical evidence prompted their clinical development in tumors with BRCA1/BRCA2 mutations. It was later demonstrated that PARPis were very effective in tumors displaying deficiency in homologous recombination (HR) repair beyond BRCA1 and BRCA2 loss of function. In addition, evidence from randomized clinical trials supports their efficacy also in tumors with intact HR repair, although to a lesser extent.

Project description:Approximately 5% of all breast cancers can be attributed to an inherited mutation in one of two cancer susceptibility genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2. We searched for genes that have the potential to distinguish healthy BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers from non-carriers based on differences in expression profiling. Using expression microarrays we compared gene expression of irradiated lymphocytes from BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers versus control non-carriers. We identified 137 probe sets in BRCA1 carriers and 1345 in BRCA2 carriers with differential gene expression. Gene Ontology analysis revealed that most of these genes relate to regulation pathways of DNA repair processes, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. Real-time PCR was performed on the 36 genes which were most prominently differentially expressed in the microarray assay; 21 genes were shown to be significantly differentially expressed in BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation carriers as compared to controls (p<0.05). Based on a validation study with 40 mutation carriers and 17 non-carriers, a multiplex model that included six or more coincidental genes of 18 selected genes was constructed in order to predict the risk of carrying a mutation. The results using this model showed sensitivity 95% and specificity 88%. In summary, our study provides insight into the biological effect of heterozygous mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes in response to ionizing irradiation induced DNA damage. We also suggest a set of 18 genes that can be used as a prediction and screening tool for BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutational carriers by using easily obtained lymphocytes. Using expression microarrays we compared gene expression of irradiated lymphocytes from BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutation carriers versus control non-carriers Fresh blood samples were obtained from 9 BRCA1 and 8 BRCA2 mutation carriers and 9 mutation-negative women. Lymphocytes were collected from fresh blood samples, and RNA was extracted one hour after γ-irradiation

Project description:Inactivating germline BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations confer a defect in homologous recombination DNA repair which was found to leave traces in tumor DNA copy number aberration (CNA) profiles. In analogy to previously trained breast cancer CNA classifiers that predicted association with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutated cancer and benefit of high dose double strand break inducing chemotherapy, we trained BRCA1 and BRCA2 classifiers on CNA profiles of 50 BRCA1 mutated, 10 BRCA2 mutated and 13 non-familial ovarian cancers and investigated whether tumor type and mutation type independent classifiers could be trained. The cross validated area under the curve of the receiver/operator characteristic curve of ovarian cancer BRCA1 and BRCA2 classifiers were 0.67 (95% CI: 0.55-0.78) and 0.91 (95% CI: 0.79-1). These classifiers identified the majority of the samples with germline and somatic BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations and BRCA1 promoter hypermethylation in the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset. Combining tumor type or mutated gene did not yield higher AUCs than single gene classifiers, although the ovarian BRCA1+BRCA2 classifier identified most BRCA1 and -2 mutated cases, including those in the TCGA dataset, and a combined breast and ovarian cancer BRCA1 classifier may improve response prediction to double strand break inducing chemotherapy.

Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide. TP53 tumor suppressor gene mutations occur in 50% of lung adenocarcinomas (LUADs) and are linked to poor prognosis, but how p53 suppresses LUAD development remains enigmatic. We show here that p53 suppresses LUAD by governing cell state, by promoting alveolar type 1 (AT1) differentiation. Using mice expressing oncogenic Kras and null, wild-type, or hypermorphic p53 alleles in alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells, we observed graded effects of p53 on LUAD initiation and progression. RNA-sequencing and ATAC-sequencing of LUAD cells uncovered a p53-induced AT1 differentiation program during tumor suppression in vivo through direct DNA binding, chromatin remodeling, and AT1 gene induction. Single-cell transcriptomics analyses revealed that during LUAD evolution, p53 promotes AT1 differentiation through action in a transitional cell state analogous to a transient intermediary seen during AT2-to-AT1 differentiation in alveolar injury repair. Notably, p53 inactivation resulted in the inappropriate persistence of these transitional cancer cells accompanied by upregulated growth signaling and divergence from lung lineage identity, characteristics associated with LUAD progression. Analysis of p53wt and p53-null mice showed that p53 also directs alveolar regeneration after injury, by regulating AT2 self-renewal and promoting transitional cell differentiation into AT1 cells. Collectively, these findings illuminate mechanisms of p53-mediated LUAD suppression, in which p53 governs alveolar differentiation, and suggest that tumor suppression reflects a fundamental role of p53 in orchestrating tissue repair after injury.
