Molecular profiling of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas and actinic keratoses from organ transplant recipients

ABSTRACT: The risk of developing cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is markedly increased in organ transplant recipients (OTRs) compared to the normal population. Next to sun exposure, the immunosuppressive regimen is an important risk factor for the development of SCC in OTRs. Various gene mutations (e.g. TP53) and genetic alterations (e.g. loss of CDKN2A, amplification of RAS) have been found in SCCs. The aim of this genome-wide study was to identify pathways that are consistently involved in the formation of SCCs and their precursor lesions, actinic keratoses (AKs). To perform the analysis in an isogenic background, RNA and DNA were isolated from normal (unexposed) epidermis, benign AK, and SCC from each of 15 OTRs. Hierarchical cluster analysis of mRNA expression profiles showed SCC, AK and epidermal samples to separate into three distinct groups. Several thousand genes were differentially expressed between epidermis, AK and SCC; most upregulated in SCCs were genes related to hyperproliferation and stress markers, such as keratin 6 (KRT6), KRT16 and KRT17. Matching to oncogenic pathways revealed activation of downstream targets of RAS and cMYC in SCCs and of NFkappaB and TNF already in AKs.

Patients were selected from the group of OTRs that are regularly seen at the dermatology clinic of the Leiden University Medical Center. Patients with clinically suspected SCC were informed on the study and after informed consent was obtained, fresh frozen samples were obtained from SCCs (n=15), AKs (n=14) and NS (n=13). RNA was isolated and gene expression profiles were obtained using HumanWG-6 v2 Expression BeadChips (Illumina). The normalized expression data was analyzed for differences in expression between SCC, AK and NS, at single-gene level but also at geneset level.

Genome-wide SNP analysis of cutaneous squamous cell carcinomas and actinic keratoses from organ transplant recipients

Project description:The risk of developing cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is markedly increased in organ transplant recipients (OTRs) compared to the normal population. Next to sun exposure, the immunosuppressive regimen is an important risk factor for SCC development in OTRs. Various gene mutations (e.g. TP53) and genetic alterations (e.g. CDKN2A loss, RAS amplification) have been found in SCCs. The aim of this study was to identify genomic alterations that are consistently involved in the formation of SCCs and their precursor lesions, actinic keratoses (AKs). To perform the analysis in an isogenic background, DNA was isolated from SCC and AK from each of 13 OTRs. Tumor samples and their matching normal control (peripheral blood) were analyzed on the Illumina HumanHap550V3_duo genotyping beadchips. In contrast to previous studies, genome-wide SNP analysis showed very few copy number variations in AKs and SCCs, and these variations had no apparent relationship with observed changes in mRNA expression profiles (GSE32628). Other molecular mechanisms, such as DNA methylation or miRNA alterations, may affect gene expression in SCCs of OTRs. Patients were selected from the group of OTRs that are regularly seen at the dermatology clinic of the Leiden University Medical Center. Patients with clinically suspected SCC were informed on the study and after informed consent was obtained, fresh frozen samples were obtained from SCCs (n=15, including 2 repeats) and AKs (n=11). Peripheral blood was taken as normal control. DNA was isolated and SNP profiles were obtained using HumanHap550V3_duo Genotyping BeadChips (Illumina). Both the log R ratio and the B allele frequency (BAF) were investigated to identify copy number alterations and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) The tumor DNA samples are from the same tumor samples as the RNA samples in GSE32628.

Global microarray analysis of changes of gene expression in the epidermis of K14-caSmad1 mice

Project description:Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signalling plays a key role in the control of skin development and postnatal remodelling by regulating keratinocyte proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. To study the role of BMPs in wound-induced epidermal repair, we used transgenic mice overexpressing the BMP downstream component Smad1 under the control of a K14 promoter as an in vivo model, as well as ex vivo and in vitro assays. K14-caSmad1 mice exhibited retarded wound healing associated with significant inhibition of proliferation and increased apoptosis in healing wound epithelium. Furthermore, microarray and qRT-PCR analyses revealed decreased expression of a number of cytoskeletal/cell motility-associated genes including wound-associated keratins (Krt16, Krt17) and Myo5a, in the epidermis of K14- caSmad1 mice versus wild-type controls during wound healing. BMP treatment significantly inhibited keratinocyte migration ex vivo, and primary keratinocytes of K14-caSmad1 mice showed retarded migration compared to wild-type controls. Finally, siRNA-mediated silencing of Bmpr-1B in primary mouse keratinocytes accelerated cell migration and was associated with increased expression of Krt16, Krt17 and Myo5a compared to controls. Thus, this study demonstrates that BMPs inhibit keratinocyte proliferation, cytoskeletal organization and migration in regenerating skin epithelium during wound healing, and raises a possibility for using BMP antagonists for the management of chronic wounds. Two-condition experiment, Wild type vs. Smad1 overexpressing mice. Biological replicates: 2 replicates.

A molecular signature for rejuvenation characterizes lesional and non lesional skin following Metvix treatment in Actinic Keratosis patients.

Project description:Actinic keratoses (AK) are proliferations of pre-neoplastic keratinocytes in the epidermis that are the result of cumulative ultraviolet (UV) radiations from sun exposure. Lesions are commonly found on sites of sun-exposed skin such as the face, balding scalp, and back of the hand. AKs may present on a patient as a few detectable lesions and 5-10% of them are susceptible to transform into SCC. In contrast, Organ Transplant Recipients (OTR) are of increasing risk at developing cancers as a consequence of long-term immunosuppressive therapy. The molecular changes that occur in lesional and perilesional skin of OTR patients 18 weeks following of PDT with topical MAL treatment were investigated to better understand the effect of the therapeutic intervention on the AK lesions. Our data show the complete normalization of the skin biology in the treated areas, i. e restoration of normal proliferation related gene profiles, and correction of aberrantly expressed cancer associated genes. We were also able to uncover a transcriptional signature of a rejuvenation effect induced by MAL-PDT in photodamaged skin opening new avenues in the use of PTD for treating photodamaged skin and field cancerized areas.

Expression analyses of inducible c-Fos expressing kerationcytes

Project description:Expression analyses comparing c-Fos expressing keratinocytes vs non-expressing controls. Skin squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are the second most prevalent skin cancers. Chronic skin inflammation has been associated with the development of SCCs, but the contribution of skin inflammation to SCC development remains largely unknown. In this study we demonstrate that inducible expression of c-fos in the epidermis of adult mice is sufficient to promote inflammation-mediated epidermal hyperplasia leading to the development of pre-neoplastic lesions. Interestingly, c-Fos transcriptionally controls mmp10 and s100a7a15 expression in keratinocytes subsequently leading to CD4 T cell recruitment to the skin, thereby promoting epidermal hyperplasia. Combining inducible c-fos expression in the epidermis with a single dose of the carcinogen 7,12-Dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) leads to the development of highly invasive SCCs, which are prevented by using the anti-inflammatory drug Sulindac. Moreover, human SCCs display a correlation between c-FOS expression and elevated levels of MMP10 and S100A15 proteins as well as CD4 T cell infiltration. Our studies demonstrate a bidirectional crosstalk between pre-malignant keratinocytes and infiltrating CD4 T cells in SCC development. Therefore, targeting inflammation along with the newly identified targets, such as MMP10 and S100A15, represent promising therapeutic strategies to treat SCCs. 5 different time points measured in triplicate comparing Dox-treated vs untreated c-FostetON keratinocytes

Skin cancer-associated S. aureus downregulates DNA repair mechanisms, and promotes oxidative stress and DNA damage in human keratinocytes

Project description:Actinic keratoses (AK) are premalignant lesions common on photo-damaged skin that, over time, can progress to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). A high bacterial load of Staphylococcus aureus is associated with AK and SCC but it is unknown whether this has a direct impact on skin cancer development. To determine whether S. aureus is able to trigger pro-tumorigenic skin responses, we performed RNAseq and shotgun proteomics on primary human keratinocytes after challenge with sterile culture supernatant (‘secretome’) from S. aureus clinical strains isolated from AK and SCC. Certain S. aureus secretomes induced keratinocytes to overexpress SCC biomarkers that have been associated with skin carcinogenesis, and upregulate the expression of enzymes linked with reduced skin barrier function. Further, S. aureus secretomes downregulated DNA repair mechanisms and induced oxidative stress markers. Subsequent experiments confirmed that exposure to SCC-derived S. aureus secretomes lead to increased intracellular ROS levels and DNA damage in primary human keratinocytes. Altogether, this study reveal a novel mechanism for the pro-tumorigenic activity of S. aureus. Further studies are required to determine whether S. aureus products promote SCC development in vivo, which would have important implications for the treatment of AK and prevention of SCC.
