Insights on PRAME and osteosarcoma by means of gene expression profiling

ABSTRACT: Abstract BACKGROUND: Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most frequent bone tumor in children and adolescents. Tumor antigens are encoded by genes that are expressed in many types of solid tumors but are silent in normal tissues, with the exception of placenta and male germ-line cells. It has been proposed that antigen tumors are potential tumor markers. OBJECTIVES: The premise of this study is that the identification of novel OS-associated transcripts will lead to a better understanding of the events involved in OS pathogenesis and biology. METHODS: We analyzed the expression of a panel of seven tumor antigens in OS samples to identify possible tumor markers. After selecting the tumor antigen expressed in most samples of the panel, gene expression profiling was used to identify osteosarcoma-associated molecular alterations. A microarray was employed because of its ability to accurately produce comprehensive expression profiles. RESULTS: PRAME was identified as the tumor antigen expressed in most OS samples; it was detected in 68% of the cases. Microarray results showed differences in expression for genes functioning in cell signaling and adhesion as well as extracellular matrix-related genes, implying that such tumors could indeed differ in regard to distinct patterns of tumorigenesis. CONCLUSIONS: The hypothesis inferred in this study was gathered mostly from available data concerning other kinds of tumors. There is circumstantial evidence that PRAME expression might be related to distinct patterns of tumorigenesis. Further investigation is needed to validate the differential expression of genes belonging to tumorigenesis-related pathways in PRAME-positive and PRAME-negative tumors.

The tumor antigen PRAME is a substrate recognition subunit of a Cul2-based ubiquitin ligase and is associated with active NFY promoters

Project description:The human tumor antigen PRAME (Preferentially expressed antigen of melanoma) is frequently overexpressed in tumors. High PRAME levels correlate with poor clinical outcome of several cancers, but the mechanisms by which PRAME could be involved in tumorigenesis remain largely elusive. We applied protein-complex purification strategies and identified PRAME as a substrate recognition subunit of a Cullin2-based E3 ubiquitin ligase. Genome-wide chromatin immunoprecipitation experiments revealed that PRAME is specifically enriched at NF-Y promoters that are transcriptionally active, suggesting a role in gene activation. Our results are consistent with the involvement of the PRAME ubiquitin ligase complex in NF-Y-mediated transcriptional regulation. ChIP-seq binding profiles of PRAME (ChIP-seq using the preimmune serum was used as negative control), NFYA, and NFYB, and expression analysis by RNA-seq in K562 human leukemia cell line

Gene expression profiling of PRAME-positive and PRAME-negative osteosarcoma samples

Project description:Preferentially Expressed Antigen in Melanoma (PRAME) is frequently overexpressed in a wide variety of cancers and it has been proposed as prognostic marker for clinical outcome. It belongs to a class of non-mutated genes whose expression seems to be mostly restricted to tumor cells. Osteosarcoma is the most common primary malignant bone tumor in children and young adults. Despite advances in the diagnosis and management of osteosarcoma, long-term survival has not envolved substantially in the past decades, justifying efforts in finding effective therapeutic targets. In order to assess transcriptome characteristics that could contribute to further comprehend PRAME association with cancer, the technique of gene expression profiling was used to compare PRAME-positive and PRAME-negative osteosarcoma samples. Keywords: disease state analysis Six tumor samples representing distinct histological classes of osteosarcoma (telangiectatic, giant cell, anaplastic, osteoblastic and chondroblastic) were included in this study. They were obtained from individual patients ranging from 5 to 29 years old. Microarray experiments were carried out using the microarray platform CodeLink (GE Healthcare). This platform utilizes bioarrays consisting of 30-base, single pre-validated oligonucleotide probe per gene target. CodeLink UniSet Human I bioarrays, containing 10,000 human transcripts, were used for all experiments. Hybridization procedures strictly followed protocols provided by the manufacturer (GE Healthcare). A total of 12 arrays were hybridized, including 6 tumor samples (3 PRAME-positive and 3 PRAME-negative) and their respective technical replicates. Arrays were scanned following the recommended scanning procedure and settings for use with CodeLink bioarrays (GE Healthcare) on GenePix 4000B Array Scanner/GenePix Pro 4.0 software (Axon Instruments).

Modeling tumor subtypes in vivo using lineage restricted transgenic shRNA

Project description:Expression analysis from two genetically engineered mouse models of osteosarcoma determine the expression profile of mouse osteosarcoma Human osteosarcoma (OS) is comprised of three different subtypes: fibroblastic, chondroblastic and osteoblastic. We previously generated a mouse model of fibroblastic OS by conditional deletion of p53 and Rb in osteoblasts. Here we report an accurate mouse model of the osteoblastic subtype using shRNA-based suppression of p53. Like human OS, tumors frequently present in the long bones and preferentially disseminate to the lungs; features less consistently modeled using Cre:lox approaches. Our approach allowed direct comparison of the in vivo consequences of targeting the same genetic drivers using different technology. This demonstrated that the effects of Cre:lox and shRNA mediated knock-down are qualitatively different, at least in the context of osteosarcoma. Through the use of complementary genetic modification strategies we have established a model of a distinct clinical subtype of OS that was not previously represented and more fully recapitulated the clinical spectrum of this human tumor. 4 primary tumors from Cre:lox OS model; 4 primary tumors from shRNA OS model.

PRAME and CTCFL-reactive TCRs for the treatment of ovarian cancer

Project description:Recurrent disease emerges in the majority of patients with ovarian cancer (OVCA). Adoptive T-cell therapies with T-cell receptors (TCRs) targeting tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) are considered promising solutions for less-immunogenic ‘cold’ ovarian tumors. In order to treat a broader patient population, more TCRs targeting peptides derived from different TAAs binding in various HLA class I molecules are essential. By performing a differential gene expression analysis using mRNA-seq datasets, PRAME, CTCFL and CLDN6 were selected as strictly tumor-specific TAAs, with high expression in ovarian cancer and at least 20-fold lower expression in all healthy tissues of risk. In primary OVCA patient samples and cell lines we confirmed expression and identified naturally expressed TAA-derived peptides in the HLA class I ligandome. Subsequently, high-avidity T-cell clones recognizing these peptides were isolated from the allo-HLA T-cell repertoire of healthy individuals. Three PRAME TCRs and one CTCFL TCR of the most promising T-cell clones were sequenced, and transferred to CD8+ T cells. The PRAME TCR-T cells demonstrated potent and specific antitumor reactivity in vitro and in vivo. The CTCFL TCR-T cells efficiently recognized primary patient-derived OVCA cells, and OVCA cell lines treated with demethylating agent 5-aza-2′-deoxycytidine (DAC). The identified PRAME and CTCFL TCRs are promising candidates for the treatment of patients with ovarian cancer, and are an essential addition to the currently used HLA-A*02:01 restricted PRAME TCRs. Our selection of differentially expressed genes, naturally expressed TAA peptides and potent TCRs can improve and broaden the use of T-cell therapies for patients with ovarian cancer or other PRAME or CTCFL expressing cancers.

Dataset #1 for genome-wide analysis of heritable dog osteosarcoma in 3 breeds

Project description:Osteosarcoma in dogs is a spontaneously occurring disease with a global tumor gene expression signature indistinguishable from human pediatric tumors and clinical progression is remarkably similar. Unlike human OS, canine OS is a highly heritable disease with some large and giant dog breeds at >10x increased risk. We did a genome wide association study of osteosarcoma using the Illumina CanineHD genotyping array in three breeds: greyhound (mortality from OS = 26%), rottweiler (17%) and Irish wolfhound (IWH, 21%) and identified 33 inherited risk loci explaining 55 to 85% of phenotype variance in each breed.
