Clinical Performance of a Stool RNA Assay for Early Detection of Precancerous Adenomas and Colorectal Cancer

ABSTRACT: Background and Aims: RNA biomarkers derived from sloughed enterocytes would provide an ideal, non-invasive method for early detection of colorectal cancer (CRC) and precancerous adenomas. To realize this goal, a highly reliable method to isolate preserved human RNA from stool samples is needed. Here we develop a protocol to identify RNA biomarkers associated with CRC to assess the use of these biomarkers for noninvasive screening of disease. Methods: Stool samples were collected from 454 patients prior to a colonoscopy. A nucleic acid extraction protocol was developed to isolate human RNA from 330 stool samples and transcript abundances were estimated by microarray analysis. This 330-patient cohort was split into a training set of 265 individuals to develop a machine learning model and a testing set of 65 individuals to determine the model’s ability to detect colorectal neoplasms. Results: Analysis of the transcriptome from 265 individuals identified 200 transcript clusters as differentially expressed (p<0.03). These transcripts were used to build a Support Vector Machine (SVM) based model to classify 65 individuals within the testing set. This SVM algorithm attained a 95% sensitivity for precancerous adenomas and a 65% sensitivity for CRC (stage I-IV). The machine learning algorithm attained a specificity of 59% for healthy individuals and an overall accuracy of 72.3%. Conclusions: We developed an RNA-based neoplasm detection model that is sensitive for CRC and precancerous adenomas. The model allows for non-invasive assessment of tumors and could potentially be used to provide clinical guidance for individuals within the screening population for colorectal cancer.

Gene expression profiling of colorectal normal mucosa, adenoma and adenocarcinoma tissues

Project description:Approximately two decades ago, Vogelstein and Fearon proposed the adenoma-carcinoma sequence of sporadic CRC development and illustrated the accumulation of genetic alterations during the stepwise progression, thereby providing a guideline for clinical practice. Although the detection and excision of precancerous lesions could prevent colorectal cancer and reduce mortality, 6% of adenomas will ultimately develop into colorectal cancer. Thus, this genetic model for colorectal tumorigenesis may not completely reflect the complex essence of the disease and whether the mode of initiation of the events in the multistep progression affects the outcome of CRC is still unknown. In this study, mRNA and miRNA expression profiling was performed with human colorectal tissues, including normal mucosa, adenoma and adenocarcinoma. Then, an integrated approach was adopted to establish the regulatory interaction networks that were correlated with colorectal carcinogenesis. Finally, a 55-gene signature whose expression was down-regulated in precancerous lesions compared to normal tissue was identified as a potential early indicator of CRC survival. The results suggested that genes related to immunity and homeostasis played a critical role in protection against adenoma initiation and that the altered molecular events that influence colorectal cancer prognosis may be set in an early, precancerous stage. Four types of human colorectal tissues were selected by colonoscopic resection or colorectal surgery, including 12 normal mucosae, 21 low-grade adenomas (mild or moderate atypical hyperplasia), 30 high-grade adenomas (severe atypical hyperplasia or carcinoma in situ) and 25 adenocarcinomas. Gene expression profiling analysis of these samples was performed using Agilent 4x44K human whole genome gene expression microarray (G4112F).

Novel stool-based protein biomarkers for improved colorectal cancer screening

Project description:Fecal immunochemical tests (FIT) detecting hemoglobin in stool are widely used for non-invasive colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, but their sensitivity leaves room for improvement. Our aim is to identify novel protein biomarkers in stool that outperform or complement hemoglobin in detecting CRCs and advanced adenomas (AAs). Stool samples (one series of 12 CRCs and 10 controls, and a second series of 81 CRCs, 40 AAs, 43 non-advanced adenomas and 129 controls) were analyzed by mass-spectrometry and searched for human proteins. Classification and regression tree and logistic regression analyses were performed to identify protein combinations that differentiated CRCs and/or AAs from controls. Antibody-based assays for four selected proteins were performed on an independent series of FIT samples (14 CRCs, 16 AAs, 18 non-advanced adenomas and 24 controls) Results: In total, 834 human proteins were identified, of which 29 were significantly enriched in CRCs versus controls in both stool sample series. Combinations of four proteins reached sensitivities of 80% and 45% for detecting CRCs and AAs, at 95% specificity, which was higher than hemoglobin alone.

Functionally relevant prediction model for colorectal cancer

Project description:Filtered selection coupled with support vector machines generate functionally relevant prediction model for colorectal cancer. In this study, we built a model that uses Support Vector Machine (SVM) to classify cancer and normal samples using Affymetrix exon microarray data obtained from 90 samples of 48 patients diagnosed with CRC. From the 22,011 genes, we selected the 20, 30, 50, 100, 200, 300 and 500 genes most relevant to CRC using the Minimum-Redundancy–Maximum-Relevance (mRMR) technique. With these gene sets, an SVM model was designed using four different kernel types (linear, polynomial, radial basis function and sigmoid).

Altered fecal small RNA profiles in colorectal cancer reflect gut microbiome composition in stool samples

Project description:Dysbiotic configurations of the human gut microbiota have been linked with colorectal cancer (CRC). Human small non-coding RNAs are also implicated in CRC and recent findings suggest that their release in the gut lumen contributes to shape the gut microbiota. Bacterial small RNAs (bsRNAs) may also play a role in carcinogenesis but their role is less explored. Here, we performed small RNA and shotgun sequencing on 80 stool specimens of patients with CRC, or adenomas, and healthy subjects collected in a cross-sectional study to evaluate their combined use as a predictive tool for disease detection. We reported a considerable overlap and correlation between metagenomic and bsRNA quantitative taxonomic profiles obtained from the two approaches. Furthermore, we identified a combined predictive signature composed by 32 features from human and microbial small RNAs and DNA-based microbiome able to accurately classify CRC from healthy and adenoma samples (AUC= 0.87). In summary we reported evidence that host-microbiome dysbiosis in CRC can be observed also by altered small RNA stool profiles. Integrated analyses of the microbiome and small RNAs in the human stool may provide insights for designing more accurate tools for diagnostic purposes.

Single-cell analyses define a continuum of cell state and composition changes in the malignant transformation of polyps to colorectal cancer [scRNA-seq]

Project description:To chart cell composition and cell state changes that occur during the transformation of healthy colon to precancerous adenomas to colorectal cancer (CRC), we generated single-cell chromatin accessibility profiles and single-cell transcriptomes from polyps, normal tissues, and CRCs collected from patients with or without germline APC mutations. We find that a large fraction of polyp and CRC cells exhibit a stem-like phenotype, and we define a continuum of epigenetic and transcriptional changes occurring in these stem-like cells as they progress from homeostasis to CRC.

Transcriptome profile of human colorectal adenomas.

Project description:Background: Colorectal cancers are believed to arise predominantly from adenomas. Although these precancerous lesions have been subjected to extensive clinical, pathological, and molecular analyses, little is currently known about the global gene expression changes accompanying their formation. Results: To characterize the molecular processes underlying the transformation of normal colonic epithelium, we compared the transcriptomes of 32 prospectively collected adenomas with those of normal mucosa from the same individuals. Important differences emerged not only between the expression profiles of normal and adenomatous tissues, but also between those of small and large adenomas. A key feature of the transformation process was the remodeling of the Wnt pathway reflected in patent over- and underexpression of 78 known components of this signaling cascade. Conclusions: Our transcriptomic profiles of normal colonic mucosa and colorectal adenomas shed new light on the early stages of colorectal tumorigenesis. Keywords: tissue comparison
