Project description:Epithelial ovarian cancer is morphologically and clinically heterogeneous. Transcriptional profiling has revealed molecular subtypes (referred to as M-bM-^@M-^\C-signaturesM-bM-^@M-^]) that correlate to biological as well as clinical features. We aimed to determine gene expression differences between malignant, benign and borderline serous ovarian tumors, and to investigate similarities to the intrinsic molecular subtypes of breast cancer. Global gene expression profiling was performed using Illumina's HT12 Bead Arrays and applied to 59 fresh-frozen ovarian tumors. SAM analysis revealed enrichment of cell cycel processes among the malignant tumors, in line with malignant tumors being highly proliferative. The borderline tumors were split between the malignant and benign tumor clusters, indicating that borderline tumors have both malignant and benign features. Furthermore, nearest centroid classification was performed applying previously published gene profiles for the ovarian cancer C-signatures and the intrinsic breast cancer subtypes, respectively, and showed significant correlations between the malignant serous tumors and the highly aggressive C1, C2 and C4 ovarian cancer signatures, and the basal-like breast cancer subtype. The benign and borderline serous tumors together were significantly correlated to the normal-like breast cancer subtype and the ovarian cancer C3 signature. The borderline tumors, on the other hand, correlated significantly to the Luminal A breast cancer subtype. These findings remained when analyzed in a large, independent dataset. The data in this study link the transcriptional profiles of serous ovarian cancer to the intrinsic molecular subtypes of breast cancer, in line with the shared clinical and molecular features between high-grade serous ovarian cancer and basal-like breast cancer, including an aggressive phenotype, frequent TP53 mutations and a high degree of genomic instability, and suggest that biomarkers and targeted therapies may overlap between these subsets of ovarian and breast cancers. Finally, the link between benign and borderline ovarian cancer and luminal breast cancer may indicate endocrine responsiveness in a subset of ovarian cancers.

Project description:Background - The malignant potential of serous ovarian tumors, the most common ovarian tumor subtype, varies from benign to low malignant potential (LMP) tumors to frankly invasive cancers. Given the uncertainty about the relationship between these different forms, we compared their patterns of gene expression. Methods - Expression profiling was carried out on samples of 7 benign, 7 LMP and 28 invasive (moderate and poorly differentiated) serous tumors and surface epithelium of four normal whole ovaries using oligonucleotide microarrays representing over 21,000 genes. Results - We identified 311 transcripts that distinguished invasive from benign tumors, and 20 transcripts that were significantly differentially expressed between invasive and LMP tumors at p < 0.01 (with multiple testing correction). Five genes that were differentially expressed between invasive and either benign or normal tissues were validated by real time PCR in an independent panel of 46 serous tumors (4 benign, 7 LMP, 35 invasive). Overexpression of SLPI and WNT7A and down-regulation of C6orf31, PDGFRA and GLTSCR2 were measured in invasive and LMP compared with benign and normal tissues. Over-expression of WNT7A in an ovarian cancer cell line led to increased migration and invasive capacity. Conclusions - These results highlight several genes that may play an important role across the spectrum of serous ovarian tumorigenesis.

Project description:Ovarian cancer is characterized by multiple structural aberrations; most are passenger alterations which do not confer tumor growth. Like many cancers, it is a heterogeneous disease and till date, the histotype-specific copy number landscape has been difficult to elucidate. To dissect the heterogeneity of ovarian cancer and understand the pathogenesis of its various histotypes, we developed an in silico hypothesis-driven workflow to identify histotype-specific copy number aberrations across multiple datasets of epithelial ovarian cancer. In concordance with previous studies on global copy number changes, our study showed similar alterations. However, when the landscape was de-convoluted into histotypes, distinct alterations were observed. We report here a comprehensive histotype-specific copy number landscape of ovarian cancer and showed that there is genomic diversity between the histotypes; some involving well known cancer genes and some novel potential driver genes. Besides preferential occurrence of alterations in some histotypes, opposite trends of alteration were observed; such as ERBB2 amplification in mucinous but deletion in serous tumors. The landscape highlights the need for identifying histotype-specific aberrations in ovarian cancer and present potential to tailor management of ovarian cancer based on molecular signature of histotypes. 56 samples containing the 4 histotypes were used for this study. It contained 12 clear cell carcinoma, 6 endometrioid adenocarcinoma, 2 mucinous adenocarcinoma, 5 mucinous-borderline tumors, 26 serous adenocarcinoma, and 5 serous-borderline tumors. Data was pre-processed and normalized with Hapmap JPT using the Affymetric Genotyping Console.

Project description:We report mapping of the PAX8 cistrome in three high grade serous ovarian cancer cell lines (KURAMOCHI, OVSAHO, and JHOS4) compared to three benign immortalized fallopian tube cell lines (FT33, FT194, and FT246). We identified a highly conserved PAX8 binding pattern common across benign fallopian tube cell lines that was distinct from the unique PAX8 binding patterns seen in each cancer cell line. Comparison of benign and malignant Mullerian cell lines.

Project description:We used microarray CGH analysis with a tiling path BAC DNA microarray to profile DNA copy number alterations in 164 serous ovarian adenocarcinomas. Survival probabilities modelled by proportional hazards were used to stratify cases into good, intermediate or poor survival groups. Comparison of aCGH data from these groups was used to identify genomic alterations associated with patient survival.

Project description:Introduction: Serous ovarian cancer is the leading cause of gynecological cancers, with a 5-year survival rate below 45% due in part to the nonspecific symptoms and lack of accurate screening for early detection. In comparison, patients diagnosed at an early stage have a five-year survival rate of 92%, demonstrating the urgent need for biomarkers for the early detection of disease. Serum from patients with serous ovarian cancer contain antibodies to tumor antigens that are potential biomarkers for early detection. The purpose of this study is to identify a panel of novel serum autoantibody (AAb) biomarkers for the early diagnosis of serous ovarian cancer. Methods: To detect AAb we probed high-density programmable protein microarrays (NAPPA) containing 10,247 antigens with sera from patients with serous ovarian cancer (n = 30 cases/ 30 healthy controls) and measured bound IgG. We identified 735 promising tumor antigens using cutoff values of 10% sensitivity at 95% specificity and K-value>0.8, as well as visual analysis and evaluated these with an independent set of serous ovarian cancer sera (n = 30 cases/ 30 benign disease controls/ 30 heathy controls). Thirty-nine potential tumor autoantigens were identified with sensitivities ranging from 3 to 39.7% sensitivity at 95% specificity and were retested using an orthogonal programmable ELISA assay. A total of 13 potential tumor antigens were identified for further validation using an independent ovarian cancer sera set (n = 44 cases/ 34 healthy controls). Sensitivities at 95% specificity were calculated and a serous ovarian cancer classifier was constructed. In addition, we evaluated a longitudinal study using blinded serous pre-diagnostic ovarian cancer sera (n = 9 cases/ 90 controls) to examine the value of three (CTAG1, CTAG2, and p53) of these AAb in comparison to CA 125. Results: We identified 11-AAbs (ICAM3, CTAG2, p53, STYXL1, PVR, POMC, NUDT11, TRIM39, UHMK1, KSR1, and NXF3) that distinguished serous ovarian cancer cases from healthy controls with a combined 45% sensitivity at 100% specificity. In our longitudinal analysis, p53- and CTAG-AAb were detected up to 9 months prior to ovarian cancer diagnosis and increased with CA 125 levels. Conclusion: These are potential circulating biomarkers for the early detection of serous ovarian cancer, and warrant confirmation in larger clinical cohorts. In addition, p53- and CTAG1/2-AAb are detected in a subset of women with ovarian cancer up to 9 months prior to clinical diagnosis. Their utility as a biomarker for early detection, beyond CA 125, warrant further investigation.
