Project description:Oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) may precede oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Early detection of OPMDs has a crucial role in OSCC prevention. DNA aneuploidy and chromosomal aberrations are markers of genomic DNA damage and chromosomal instability (CIN), which is involved in cancer development. We explored the relationship among genomic DNA copy number aberrations (CNAs), histological diagnosis and DNA aneuploidy in OPMDs/OSCCs. Samples from OPMDs and OSCCs were processed for high resolution DNA flow cytometry (hr DNA-FCM) to determine the relative DNA content expressed with the DNA index (DI). Additionally, on a subset of these samples, array-Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) analysis was performed on DNA obtained from diploid nuclei suspension or from aneuploid-enriched nuclei suspensions. DNA copy number aberrations were determined using high resolution arrays on 151 samples (2x105K, n=82 samples, and 4x180K, n=69 samples) (Agilent Technologies, Palo Alto, CA, USA). Labeling, hybridization, scanning and feature extraction were performed as previously described using the cross hybridization method previously described [Castagnola P, Malacarne D, Scaruffi P, Maffei M, Donadini A, et al. (2011) Chromosomal aberrations and aneuploidy in oral potentially malignant lesions: distinctive features for tongue. BMC Cancer 11: 445.].

Project description:The mucosae of the oral cavity are different at the histological level but are all exposed to common genotoxic agents. As a result of this exposure, changes in the mucosal epithelia develop giving rise to Oral Potentially Malignant Lesions (OPMLs), which with time may in turn progress to Oral Squamous Cell Carcinomas (OSCCs). Therefore, much effort should be devoted to identify features able to predict the likeliness of progression associated with an OPML. Such features may be helpful in assisting the clinician to establish both appropriate therapies and follow-up schedules. Here, we report a pilot study that compared the anatomical subsites of OPMLs development with occurrence of DNA aneuploidy and chromosomal copy number aberrations (CNAs). Multiple samples from histologically diagnosed OPMLs were processed for high resolution DNA flow cytometry (hr DNA-FCM) in order to determine the relative DNA content expressed by the DNA index (DI). Additionally, array-Comparative Genomic Hybridization (a-CGH) analysis was performed on FCM-sorted nuclei subpopulations based on DI values. Tongue OPMLs were more frequently associated with DNA aneuploidy and CNAs than OPMLs arising from all the other mucosal subsites. We suggest that the follow-up and the management of the patients with tongue OPMLs should receive a distinctive special attention. Clearly, this conclusion should be validated in a prospective clinical study. exposed to common genotoxic agents.

We analyzed: 19 samples (4 aneuploid and 15 diploid components) deriving from oral potentially malignant lesions without dysplasia obtained of 16 patients; 14 samples (2 aneuploid and 12 diploid components) deriving from oral potentially malignant lesions with dysplasia obtained from 11 patients (two patients had multiple dysplastic lesions); 2 samples from visually normal mucosa in the near field obtained from two patients with dysplastic lesions. All the aneuploid samples had a purity of at least 90%.

Project description:The aim of the study was to address the concept of field cancerization in oral cancer. The presence of genomic aberrations, indicative of chromosomal instability (CIN), in oral distant fields (ODFs) of visually normal and non-dysplastic mucosa at the mirror image from concomitant oral potentially malignant lesions (OPMLs) was investigated. This pilot study comprised 16 OPMLs (8 without dysplasia, nd-OPMLs; 8 with dysplasia, d-OPMLs) and 16 ODFs. DNA diploid (DNA Index, DI=1) and aneuploid (DIM-bM-^IM- 1) sublines were detected by high resolution DNA-flow cytometry (FCM) at (hr DNA-FCM) using DAPI stained nuclei suspensions. Nuclei with different DIs were FCM-sorted in order to enrich the epithelial component and to obtain genomic DNA for high resolution oligonucleotide array-Comparative Genomic Hybridization (a-CGH) analysis to provide a genome-wide measurement of DNA copy number aberrations (CNAs). The frequencies of DNA aneuploidy in ODFs and OPMLs were 6.2% and 43.8%, respectively (p=0.037). ODFs and nd-OPMLs were all near-diploid (DIM-bM-^IM- 1 and DIM-bM-^IM-$1.4), while d-OPMLs were also high-aneuploid (DI>1.4). CNA averages were 2.3 in ODFs (1.5 for nd-OPMLs and 3.1 for d-OPMLs), and 7.325 in OPMLs (3.0 in nd-OPMLs; 11.6 in d-OPMLs). CNAs were present in the DNA diploid sublines and often the same CNAs were observed in both ODFs and corresponding OPMLs DNA aneuploid sublines and CNAs in the present series of 16 ODFs are likely to represent early events of the natural history of oral carcinogenesis and to indicate an early onset of the field effect cancerization. Moreover, gains within 20q13.33-qter, 7p22.2-pter and 16p13.3-pter chromosomal regions in ODFs and in the relative OPMLs suggest that specific genes localized in these regions (RTEL1, MAD1L1 and TEL2) might contribute to the ODF/d-OPML transition. We analyzed: 8 samples of oral potentially malignant lesions with dysplasia, 8 samples of oral potentially malignant lesions without dysplasia and for each patient a corresponding oral distant field of visually normal mucosa.

Project description:Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a lethal disease and early death usually occurs as a result of local invasion and regional lymph node metastases. We used microarrays to identify down or upregulated genes in OSCCs compared with non-malignant controls. To identify genes whose transcription is deregulated in OSCC, the gene expression profiles of eight OSCC cell lines (H-series and M9) and three primary cultures of normal oral keratinocytes (NKs) were examined using Affymetrix HG-U133A and HG-U133 Plus 2.0 arrays.

Project description:Objectives: Earlier studies involving a priori gene selection have identified promoter regions deregulated by DNA methylation changes in oral squamous cell cancers (OSCCs) and precancers. Interrogation of global DNA methylation patterns for such specimens has not been reported, though such analyses are needed to uncover novel molecular factors driving disease. Materials and Methods: We evaluated global DNA methylation patterns for 30 biopsies obtained from 10 patients undergoing surgical removal of an OSCC or carcinoma in situ (CIS). From a disease field in each patient, we collected i) dysplastic, ii) CIS or OSCC, and iii) adjacent normal biopsies. DNA isolated from each biopsy was profiled for methylation status using the Illumina HumanMethylation27K platform. Results: Our data demonstrate that aberrant methylation of promoter CpG islands exists across oral precancer and OSCC genomes. Non-hierarchical clustering of all methylation data revealed distinct methylation patterns between the normal and the CIS/OSCC tissues (with results for dysplastic biopsies split between groups). Multiple genes exhibiting recurrent aberrant DNA methylation were found for both dysplastic and CIS/OSCC groups, and included enrichment for genes found in the WNT and MAPK signaling pathways. Conclusion: In identifying aberrant DNA methylation at the earliest stages of oral precancer and finding recurring epigenetic disruption of specific genes/pathways across our analyzed cohort, we conclude that CpG methylation changes are a hallmark of oral cancer progression and that global DNA methylation analyses are an essential component for wider studies seeking to derive biomarkers or potentially druggable targets for improving oral cancer outcomes. Bisulphite converted DNA from the 30 samples were hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 27k Human Methylation BeadChip v1.2. Total RNA from 30 oral cancer samples were hybridized to Agilent 4x44k gene expression microarray.
