Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs), non-coding RNAs regulating gene expression, are frequently aberrantly expressed in human cancers. Next-generation deep sequencing technology enables genome-wide expression profiling of known miRNAs and discovery of novel miRNAs at unprecedented quantitative and qualitative accuracy. Deep sequencing was performed on 22 fresh frozen clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), 11 non-tumoral renal cortex (NRC) samples and 2 ccRCC cell lines (n=35). The 22 ccRCCs patients belonged to 3 prognostic sub-groups, i.e. Those without disease recurrence, with recurrence and with metastatic disease at diagnosis Deep sequencing was performed on 22 fresh frozen clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), 11 non-tumoral renal cortex (NRC) samples and 2 ccRCC cell lines (n=35). The 22 ccRCCs patients belonged to 3 prognostic sub-groups, i.e. Those without disease recurrence, with recurrence and with metastatic disease at diagnosis.

Project description:Background/Objective: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a pivotal role in cancerogenesis and cancer progression, but their specific role in metastasis of clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs) as so-called metastamirs is still limited. Based on microRNA microarray analyses from normal (n=12) and cancerous (n=12) samples of ccRCC specimens and from bone metastases (n=9) of ccRCC patients, we identified a set of 57 differentially expressed microRNAs between those three sample groups of ccRCC. A selected panel of 33 miRNAs, including miRNAs reported in the literature as differentially expressed in non-metastatic RCC, was validated by RT-qPCR on 57 clinical samples. 30 of the 33 examined miRNAs were confirmed to be deregulated. A stepwise down-regulated miRNA expression from normal over primary tumor to metastatic tissue samples was found to be typical. 23 miRNAs (miR-10b/-19a/-19b/-20a/-29a/-29b/-29c/-100/-101/-126/-127/-130/-141/-143/-145/-148a/-192/-194/-200c/-210/-215/-370/-514) were down-regulated in metastatic tissue samples in comparison to normal tissue. This down-regulated expression in metastatic tissue was also present in 21 miRNAs except for miR-127 and miR-370. The altered miRNA profiles including the newly identified metastasis-associated miRNAs, the compiled predicted miRNA-target interactions, and the significant correlations of miRNAs which were either lost or newly appeared in the studied sample groups afford a solid basis for further functional analyses of individual miRNAs. In this study, microarray-based profiling was performed from 9 bone metastatic tissue samples from 9 patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). For controls, 2 bone metastatic samples from two patients with prostate carcinoma and 5 total RNA pools (2 different pools of total RNAs isolated from malignant renal tissue samples derived from different ccRCC patients; 1 pool from non-malignant renal tissue of ccRCC patients; 2 pools of total RNA both from malignant and non-malignant prostate cancer tissue) were used. In addition, matched malignant (e.g., malignant NC2) and non-malignant (e.g., non-malignant NN1) samples from two independent 12 ccRCC sets were profiled (these samples were previously analyzed on a different Platform in GSE12105). The 2002 TNM System and the 2004 WHO classification was used for staging and grading.

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCC) are characterized by arm-wide chromosomal alterations. Loss at 14q is associated with disease aggressiveness in ccRCC, which responds poorly to chemotherapeutics. The 14q locus contains one of the largest miRNA clusters in the human genome; however, little is known about the contribution of these miRNAs to ccRCC pathogenesis. In this regard, we investigated the expression pattern of selected miRNAs at the 14q32 locus in TCGA kidney tumors and in ccRCC cell lines. We validated that the miRNA cluster is downregulated in ccRCC (and cell lines) as well as in papillary kidney tumors relative to normal kidney tissues and primary renal proximal tubule epithelial (RPTEC) cells. We demonstrated that agents modulating expression of DNMT1 (e.g., 5-Aza-deoxycytidine) could modulate miRNA expression in ccRCC cell lines. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, a Lysophospholipid mediator elevated in ccRCC) not only increased labile iron content but also modulated expression of 14q32 miRNAs. Through an overexpression approach targeting a subset of 14q32 miRNAs (specifically at subcluster A: miR-431, miR-432, miR-127, and miR-433) in 769-P cells, we uncovered changes in cellular viability and claudin-1, a tight junction marker. A global proteomic approach was implemented using these miRNA overexpressing cell lines which uncovered ATXN2 as a highly downregulated target, which has a role in chronic kidney disease pathogenesis. Collectively, these findings support a contribution of miRNAs at 14q32 in ccRCC pathogenesis.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) expression profiles are widely investigated in the major cancers, but their specific roles and functions in cancers have not yet to be fully elucidated. We investigated expression profiles of miRNAs in clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs) and in matched normal kidney tissues (NCTs) by using a miRNAs microarray platform which covers a total of 851 human miRNAs. Tumor tissue samples were immediately snap-frozen in liquid nitrogen after surgery, and then stored in a deep freezer at -80°C. Total RNA was extracted from 5 ccRCC tissues and paired NCTs and expression profiles of miRNAs were screened by using a miRNA microarray platform.

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the most common type of renal cancer is often associated with inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene von-Hippel Lindau (VHL), leading to stable expression of hypoxia inducible factors, HIF1α and HIF2α. Although HIF1α functions as a tumor suppressor gene, majority of ccRCCs constitutively express HIF1α, stratifying VHL-deficient ccRCCs into groups which express either both HIF1α and HIF2α (H1H2) or HIF2α exclusively (H2). MicroRNA (miRNA) profiling performed in these two ccRCC subtypes to identify novel molecular mechanisms. ccRCCs were classified into H1H2 and H2 subtypes by immunohostochemical staining of H1F1α and H1F2α expression. Five H1H2 tumor samples and eight H2 tumor samples were used for the study. Matched adjacent normal renal tissues were used as respective controls.

Project description:About 30% of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) patients undergoing nephrectomy experience disease recurrence. This study aimed to profile microRNAs (miRNAs) that are dysregulated in clear cell RCC (ccRCC) tumor tissues and predictive of recurrence. The expression levels of 800 miRNAs were assessed in paired tumor and normal tissues from a discovery cohort of 18 ccRCC patients via the NanoString assay platform. MiRNAs found to be differentially expressed were further examined in a validation set of 205 patients using quantitative real-time PCR. Tumor-normal data from 64 patients in The Cancer Genome Atlas were used for external validation. Results showed 28 miRNAs were consistently dysregulated in tumor tissues. Dichotomized analyses indicated patients with high levels of miR-155-5p and miR-210-3p displayed increased risk of ccRCC recurrence (HR, 2.64; 95% CI, 1.49-4.70; P=0.0009 and HR, 1.8; 95% CI, 1.04-3.12; P=0.036, respectively) and shorter median recurrence-free survival times than patients with low levels (log rank test P<0.01). A risk score was generated based on expression levels of miR-155-5p and miR-210-3p, and the trend test was significant (P for trend=0.005). Pathway analysis revealed target genes regulated by miR-155-5p and miR-210-3p were mainly enriched in inflammation-related pathways. In summary, we identified and validated multiple miRNAs dysregulated in ccRCC tissues. MiR-155-5p and miR-210-3p were predictive of ccRCC recurrence pointing to potential utility as biomarkers and underlying biological mechanisms.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Intra-tumor heterogeneity (ITH) is a key feature in clear-cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs) which impacts outcomes such as aggressiveness, response to treatments or recurrence. In particular, it may explain tumor relapse after surgery in clinically low-risk patients who did not benefit from adjuvant therapy. Recently, single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) has emerged as a powerful tool to unravel expression intra-tumor heterogeneity (eITH) and might enable better assessment of clinical outcomes in ccRCC. OBJECTIVE: To explore eITH in ccRCC with a focus on malignant cells (MCs), and assess its relevance to improve prognosis for low-risk patients. RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS: We analyzed 54,812 cells and identified 35 cell subpopulations. The eITH analysis revealed that each tumor contained various degrees of clonal diversity. The transcriptomic signatures of MCs in one particularly heterogeneous sample were used to design a deconvolution-based strategy which allowed to risk-stratify 310 low-risk ccRCC patients.

Project description:Previously, we have reported that genomic loss of 14q occurs more frequently in high grade clear cell renal cell carcinomas (ccRCCs) than low grade ones and shows a significant impact on the expression levels of genes located on this region, suggesting that the genes located on the region and downregulated by the loss may be involved in the malignant transformation of ccRCCs. Here, among the genes located on the minimal common region of 14q loss, we found that 6 were significantly downregulated in high grade ccRCCs due to copy number loss. Using the data set from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network, downregulation of one out of the 6 genes, WDR20, was significantly associated with poorer prognosis for the patients with ccRCC, suggesting that downregulation of WDR20 may be involved in the malignant transformation of ccRCC. In functional assays, exogeneous WDR20 significantly inhibited growth and induced apoptosis in RCC cell lines. Interestingly, the phosphorylation levels of ERK and AKT, which reportedly contribute to the malignant phenotype of RCC cells, were clearly reduced by the exogeneous expression of WDR20. Thus, our data suggest that downregulation of WDR20 due to 14q loss may be involved in the malignant transformation of ccRCCs in part through the activation of ERK and AKT pathways. Downregulated expression levels of genes in minimal common region due to 14q loss. Expression levels of 6 genes were determined by microarray analysis and compared between normal kidney tissues (normal, n=16), low grade (low, n=16) and high grade (high, n=16) ccRCCs. The expression level (log2) normalized by the median expression level for the 16 normal samples.
