Mice Lacking a Myc Enhancer Element that Includes Human SNP rs6983267 Are Resistant to Intestinal Tumors

ABSTRACT: Multiple cancer-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been mapped to conserved sequences within a 500 kilobase region upstream of the MYC oncogene on human chromosome 8q24. These SNPs may affect cancer development through altered regulation of MYC expression, but this hypothesis has been difficult to confirm. We generated mice deficient in Myc-335, a putative MYC regulatory element that contains rs6983267, a SNP accounting for more human cancer- related morbidity than any other genetic variant or mutation. In Myc-335 null mice, Myc transcripts were expressed in the intestinal crypts in a pattern similar to that in wild-type mice but at modestly reduced levels. The mutant mice displayed no overt phenotype but were markedly resistant to intestinal tumorigenesis induced by the APCmin mutation. These results establish that a cancer-associated SNP identified in human genome-wide association studies has a functional effect in vivo.

Colorectal cancer susceptibility loci as predictive markers of rectal cancer prognosis after surgery

Project description:To understand the molecular mechanism of rectal cancer and develop markers for disease prognostication, we generated and explored a dataset from 243 rectal cancer patients by gene expression microarray analysis of cancer samples and matched controls, and SNP-arrays of germline DNA. We found that two of the loci most strongly linked with colorectal cancer (CRC) risk, 8q24 (upstream of MYC) and 18q21 (in the intron of SMAD7), as well as 20q13 (in the intron of LAMA5), are tightly associated with the prognosis of rectal cancer patients. For SNPs on 18q21 (rs12953717 and rs4464148) and 20q13 (rs4925386), alleles that correlate with higher risk for the development of CRC are associated with shorter disease free survival (DFS). However, for rs6983267 on 8q24, the low risk allele is associated with a higher risk for recurrence and metastasis after surgery, and importantly, is strongly correlated with the resistance of CRC cell lines to chemoradiotherapy (CRT). We also found that although MYC expression is dramatically increased in cancer, patients with higher levels of MYC have a better prognosis. The expression of SMAD7 is weakly correlated with DFS. Notably, the presence of the 8q24 and 18q21 SNP alleles is not correlated with expression levels of MYC and SMAD7. rs4464148, and probably rs6983267 and rs4925386, are linked with overall survival time of patients. In conclusion, we show that several CRC risk SNPs detect subpopulations of rectal cancer patients with poor prognosis, and that rs6983267 probably affects prognosis through interfering with the resistance of cancer cells to CRT.

RNA expression at chromosome 8q24 in human colon

Project description:An inherited variant on chromosome 8q24, rs6983267, is significantly associated with cancer pathogenesis. We present evidence that this region is a transcriptional enhancer, that the risk region physically interacts with the MYC proto-oncogene, and that the alleles of rs6983267 differentially bind transcription factor 7-like 2 (TCF7L2). These data provide strong support for a biological mechanism underlying this non-protein coding risk variant.

Cancer-associated rs6983267 SNP and its accompanying long non-coding RNA CCAT2 induce myeloid malignancies via unique SNP-specific RNA mutations

Project description:The cancer-risk associated rs6983267 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and the accompanying long non-coding RNA CCAT2 in the highly amplified 8q24.21 region has been implicated in cancer predisposition, though causality has not been established. Here, using allele-specific CCAT2 transgenic mice, we demonstrate that CCAT2 overexpression leads to spontaneous myeloid malignancies. CCAT2 is overexpressed in bone marrow and peripheral blood of myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms (MDS/MPN) patients. CCAT2 induces global deregulation of gene expression by downregulating EZH2 in vitro and in vivo in an allele-specific manner. We also identified a novel disease-specific RNA mutation (named DNA-to-RNA allelic imbalance, DRAI) at the SNP locus in MDS/MPN patients and CCAT2-transgenic mice. The RNA transcribed from the SNP locus in malignant hematopoietic cells have different allelic composition from the corresponding genomic DNA, a phenomenon rarely observed in normal cells. Our findings provide fundamental insights into the functional role of rs6983267 SNP and CCAT2 in myeloid malignancies. We performed genome-wide microarray expression profiling to study the genetic landscape alterations induced by CCAT2 and DRAI

The 8q24 Enhancer Region including rs6983267 Directly Interacts with Promoter of Oncogenic LncRNA CARLo-5

Project description:The mechanism by which rs6983267 at 8q24.21 increases cancer risk is unclear for the lack of protein?coding genes in the region although the variant is strongly associated with cancer pathogenesis. Here we identify long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) near the 8q24 region and show that expression of lncRNA CARLo-5 is significantly correlated with the risk allele of the cancer-associated variant rs6883267. We further report that the 8q24 enhancer region including the variant directly interacts with active regulatory region of the lncRNA CARLo-5 promtoer. Finally, we demonstrate that CARLo-5 has an oncogenic function by regulating cell proliferation and cell-cycle. Our data provide new insight of disease-related variants in a gene desert.

Transcription factor-SNP interactome for colorectal cancer risk loci

Project description:A core task to understand the consequences of non-coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) is to identify their genotype specific binding of transcription factor (TF). Here, we generate a large-scale TF-SNP interaction map for a selection of 116 colorectal cancer (CRC) risk loci and validated TF binding to 10 putatively functional SNPs. Our data further revealed TF binding complexity adjacent to the 116 risk loci, adding an additional layer of understanding to regulatory networks associated with CRC relevant loci.
