Project description:BRAFV600E mutation is the most frequent molecular event in papillary thyroid carcinoma. The relation of this genetic alteration with the factors od poor prognosis has been reported as well as its influence on PTC gene signature. However human material disables distinction of cancer causes from its effect. We used our transgenic mouse model of papillary thyroid carcinoma induced by the BRAFV600E mutation to select BRAFV600E-specifi gene signature which was than compared to human material

However human material disables distinction of cancer causes from its effect. We used our transgenic mouse model of papillary thyroid carcinoma induced by the BRAFV600E mutation to select BRAFV600E-specifi gene signature which was than compared to human material The human microarray data were obtained for: 27 papillary thyroid carcinomas including 18 BRAF(+), 8 RET(+), 1 RAS(+); 18 apparently healthy thyroids. In order to find BRAFV600E-specific gene signature data obtained from our transgenic mouse model of PTC were compared to human material. The analyses were performed taking into account not only the BRAF mutation but also other PTC initiating events including RET rearrangements and RAS poin mutations. Morover the microarray data were validated with the QPCR reaction.

However human material disables distinction of cancer causes from its effect. We used our transgenic mouse model of papillary thyroid carcinoma induced by the BRAFV600E mutation to select BRAFV600E-specific gene signature The transgenic mouse model was obtained by the microinjection of the transgene, composed of the human BRAF cDNA with V600E mutation under the control of bovine thyroglobulin, into the ferilized mice egg cells. Three lines were derived and mice after 4-24 months were sacrificed and histopathological evaluation of thyroids was carried out. In order to find BRAFV600E-specific gene signature microarray analysis was performed. The analysis invloved 38 mice thyroid samples: 10 mice papillary thyroid carcinomas, 10 borderline lesions (all being BRAF-positive), 10 apparently asymptomatic thyroids (5 BRAF-positive and 5 BRAF-negative) and 8 benign hyperplastic lesions (4 BRAF-positive and 4 BRAF-negative). Multofactoral analyses were performed in order to define some additional factors that could have impact on the gene expression profile.

Project description:BRAFV600E mutation frequently occurs in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). β-catenin, encoded by CTNNB1, is a key downstream component of canonical Wnt signaling pathway and is often overexpressed in PTC. BRAFV600E-driven PTC tumors rely on Wnt/β-catenin signaling to sustain their growth and progression. In the present study, we investigated the tumorigenicity of thyroid cancer cells derived from BrafV600E PTC mice after Ctnnb1 ablation (BVE-Ctnnb1null). Remarkably, the tumorigenic potential of BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells was lost in nude mice. RNA-Seq analysis of the BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells showed up-regulation of NKG2D receptor activating ligands (H60a, H60b, H60c, Raet1a, Raet1b, Raet1c, Raet1d, Raet1e and Ulbp1) and down-regulation of inhibitory MHC class I molecules H-2L and H-2K2 in the BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells. In vitro cytotoxicity assay demonstrated that BVE-Ctnnb1wt tumor cells were resistant to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity whereas BVE-Ctnnb1null tumor cells were sensitive to NK cell-mediated killing. Furthermore, overexpression of any one of these NKG2D ligands in the BVE-Ctnnb1wt cell line resulted in significant reduction of tumor growth in nude mice. Our results indicate that active β-catenin signaling inhibits NK cell-mediated immune response against thyroid cancer cells. Targeting β-catenin signaling pathway may have significant therapeutic benefit for thyroid cancer by not only inhibiting tumor growth but also enhancing host immune surveillance.

Project description:Well-differentiated tumours (WDT) of the thyroid gland can be difficult to diagnose. Focal nuclear clearing can be suggestive of a papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), while questionable vascular or capsular penetration may raise the possibility of diagnosis of a follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC). The recently proposed term “thyroid tumours of uncertain malignant potential” (TT-UMP) defines cases showing inconclusive morphological evidence of malignancy. We use microRNA (miRNA) expression profiling to analyze 42 well differentiated thyroid tumours including 7 follicular tumours of uncertain malignant potential (FT-UMP), 6 well differentiated tumours of uncertain malignant potential (WDT-UMP), 7 follicular thyroid adenomas (FTA), 5 follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FV-PTC) 6 follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC), and 11 conventional papillary thyroid carcinoma (C-PTC) with 6 C-PTC mutated for BRAFV600E (C-PTC-mut) and 5 not mutated: wild type (C-PTC-wt). Comparison of these 13 tumours of uncertain malignant potential (7 FT-UMP and 6 WDT-UMP) with those obtained from 16 PTC (11 C-PTC and 5 FV-PTC), 6 FTC and 7 FTA is performed in order to clarify the relationships between TT-UMP and the morphologically well characterized categories of thyroid tumours (i.e. C-PTC, FV-PTC, FTC and FTA). In first, each pathological sample (“L” for Lesional tissue) is compared with its matched control (“S” for Safe tissue) for the 42 patients (84 miRNA microarray slides). This control was taken from the same patient at a large distance from the tumour. Secondly, the perilesional tissue from the same patients but 2 (1 PTC and 1 adenoma, without enough RNA left) is compared to normal thyroid tissue (safe tissue reference) obtained from a patient who underwent total thyroidectomy for a laryngeal carcinoma that partially invaded the thyroid gland, to search for microRNA signatures of perilesional tissues (80 miRNA microarray slides).Experiments is performed with a miRNA microarray, referenced in GEO under the accession number GPL4717 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GPL4717). 42 Patients: 7 FT-UMP, 6 WDT-UMP, 7 FTA (+1 duplicate sample), 5 FV-PTC, 6 FTC (+ 2 duplicate samples), and 11 C-PTC. 44 dye-swap pairs and 1 with no dye swap pair for a total of 89 samples.

Project description:The purposes of this study were to compare and analyze the expression differences of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) induced by BrafV600E after knockdown of miR-31 deletion. And in order to gain insights into global gene expression regulated by miR-31 in human PTC cells, RNA-Seq experiments were performed in K1 cells with knockdout of miR-31.

Project description:Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) has among the worst prognosis of any solid malignancy. The low incidence of the disease has in part precluded systematic clinical trials and tissue collection, and there has been little progress in developing effective therapies. BRAF and TP53 mutations co-occur in a high proportion of ATC, particularly those associated with a precursor papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). In order to develop an adult-onset model of BRAF-mutant anaplastic thyroid carcinoma, we generated a novel thyroid-specific CreER transgenic mouse. We utilize a Cre-regulated BrafV600E mouse and a conditional Trp53 allelic series to demonstrate that p53 constrains progression from papillary to anaplastic thyroid carcinoma. Gene expression and immunohistochemical analyses of murine tumors identified the cardinal features of human ATC including loss of differentiation, local invasion, distant metastasis and rapid lethality. We employed small animal ultrasound imaging to monitor autochthonous tumors, and show that treatment with the selective BRAF inhibitor PLX4720 improved survival, but did not lead to tumor regression or suppress signaling through the MAPK pathway. Combination of PLX4720 and the MEK inhibitor PD0325901 more completely suppressed MAPK pathway activation in mouse and human ATC cell lines, and improved the structural response and survival of ATC-bearing animals. This model expands the limited repertoire of autochthonous models of clinically aggressive thyroid cancer, and these data suggest that small molecule MAPK pathway inhibitors hold clinical promise in the treatment of advanced thyroid carcinoma. Total RNA from five murine papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) tumors and five murine anaplastic thyroid carcinoma (ATC) tumors was analyzed.

Project description:Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common malignant phenotype of thyroid cancer, with a rapidly increasing number of new cases globally. Multifocality is a common phenomenon in patients with PTC. The tumor microenvironment (TME) plays a pivotal role in cancer progression in papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), yet the composition and phenotype of cells within TME in bilateral PTCs are poorly understood.
