Machine Learning Reveals Lipidome Dynamics in a Mouse Model of Ovarian Cancer

ABSTRACT: Ovarian cancer (OC) is one of the deadliest cancers affecting the female reproductive system. It presents little or no symptoms at the early stages, and typically unspecific symptoms at later stages. Of the OC subtypes, high-grade serous carcinoma (HGSC) is responsible for most OC deaths. However, very little is known about the metabolic course of this disease. In this longitudinal study, we investigated the temporal course of lipidome changes in a Dicer-Pten Double-Knockout (DKO) HGSC mouse model using machine and statistical learning approaches. Early progression of HGSC was marked by increased levels of phosphatidylcholines and phosphatidylethanolamines. In contrast, later stages were marked by more diverse lipids alterations, including fatty acids and their derivatives, triglycerides, ceramides, hexosylceramides, sphingomyelins, lysophosphatidylcholines, and phosphatidylinositols. These alterations provided evidence of perturbations in cell membrane stability, proliferation, and survival and candidates for early-stage and prognostic markers in humans.

Molecular analysis of normal oviduct, STIC and invasive serous cancer

Project description:High-grade serous cancer (HGSC) progresses to advanced stages without symptoms and the 5-year survival rate is a dismal 30%. Recent studies of ovaries and fallopian tubes in patients with BRCA mutations revealed that pre-metastatic HGSC is found almost exclusively in the fallopian tube in a lesion termed “serous tubal intraepithelial carcinoma” or STIC. We have performed laser captured microdissection (LCM) of normal oviduct, STIC and invasive serous cancer from each patient. A whole-genome transcriptome analysis comparing between normal oviduct, STIC and invasive serous cancer were performed. We demonstrated a clear molecular progression from normal to STIC, which shared the gene expression patterns with invasive serous cancer, suggesting a new set of genes as basis of novel detection and therapeutic approaches to HGSC at its earliest stage.

Transformation of the Fallopian Tube Secretory Epithelium Leads to High-grade Serous Ovarian Cancer in BRCA/P53/PTEN Models

Project description:Our study presents the first genetic models of de novo high-grade serous carcinomas (HGSC) that originate in fallopian tube secretory epithelial cells and recapitulate the key genetic alterations and precursor lesions characteristic of human invasive ovarian cancer. Genomic copy number analysis, using array CGH, was performed on murine tumors in order to compare the overlap of copy number alterations between HGSC models and TCGA data. Array CGH was performed on genomic DNA isolated from murine HGSC tumors. Genomic DNA from three normal mouse fallopian tubes was pooled and used as the reference.

Whole brain transcriptome analysis of Shank2 knock-out mice

Project description:Autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) are thought to involve neurodevelopmental dysregulations that lead to visible symptoms at early stages of life. Many ASD-related mechanisms suggested by animal studies are supported by demonstrated improvement in autistic-like phenotypes in adult animals following experimental reversal of dysregulated mechanisms. However, whether such mechanisms also act at earlier stages to cause autistic-like phenotypes is unclear. Here, we show that early correction of a dysregulated mechanism in young mice prevents manifestation of autistic-like phenotypes in adult mice. Shank2–/– mice, known to display N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) hypofunction and autistic-like behaviors at post-weaning stages after postnatal day 21 (P21), show the opposite synaptic phenotype–NMDAR hyperfunction–at an earlier pre-weaning stage (~P14). Moreover, this NMDAR hyperfunction at P14 is rapidly shifted to NMDAR hypofunction after weaning (~P24). Chronic suppression of the early NMDAR hyperfunction by the NMDAR antagonist memantine (P7?21) prevents the NMDAR hypofunction and autistic-like behaviors from manifesting at later stages (~P28 and P56). These results suggest that early NMDAR hyperfunction leads to late NMDAR hypofunction and autistic-like behaviors in Shank2–/– mice, and that early correction of NMDAR function has the long-lasting effect of preventing autistic-like phenotypes from developing at later stages.

comparison of powdery mildew-induced gene expression between Col-0 and the edr1 mutant

Project description:The edr1 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana displays enhanced resistance to the powdery mildew Golovinomyces cichoracearum, resulting in cell death and an absence of visible disease symptoms. To better characterize and understand the defense response of edr1, a time course of early signaling responses was performed after inoculation with powdery mildew and compared to the responses of wild-type Col-0. These time points represent early stages in the infection process, before any signs of susceptibility or resistance are visible.

Profiles of genomic instability in high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSC) predict treatment outcome

Project description:Profiling of loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in HGSC, subcrouping HGSC by LOH-based clustering and comparing to the LOH profiles of triple-negative breast cancer [previously submitted; GSE19594]. Study for the correlation of LOH burdern and LOH-based subgroups to clinical response to platinum-based chemotherapy in patients suffered from HGSC. SNP data (Affymetrix GenChip 250K SNP Nsp) from 47 high grade serous ovarian cancer were generated and used for LOH and copy number analysis, LOH-based hierarchical clustering to subclassify HGSC, and comparison to the chromosomal alterations in high grade brest cancer. The associstion between LOH-based subgroups and LOH burden and clinical resposne to platinum-based chemotherapy was investigated. The results were validated in two independent public opening datasets.

Profiling of serum N-glycome in ovarian cancer by MALDI-MS

Project description:Ovarian cancer (OC) is the one of the most common gynecological tumors with high morbidity and mortality. Alterations in serum N-glycosylation have been observed in many diseases, and specific N-glycans of serum could be used for disease diagnosis or prognosis. However, the association between serum N-glycome profiles and OC progression remains unclear. Herein, high-throughput mass spectrometry was applied to characterize serum N-glycome profile in individuals with healthy controls, benign neoplasm and different stages of OC patients. It was observed that high-mannosylation, neutral bisection and agalactosylation of serum glycoproteins were uniformly increased in the initiation and development of OC, but sialylation was substantially changed on an opposite trend. Additionally, agalactosylation, high-mannosylation and sialylation gained at least moderately accurate merit for diagnosis of both OC and benign neoplasm. Notably, serum N-glycome profile could accurately discriminate OC patients from benign cohorts, with a comparable or even higher diagnostic score compared with CA125 and HE4. Furthermore, bioinformatics verified the differential expression of glycogens in OC progression. Significantly, strong correlations were found between CA 125 and high-mannosylation, galactosylation and sialylation. These findings demonstrated the great potential of serum N-glycome for OC diagnosis and precancerous lesion prediction, paving a new way for OC screening and monitoring.

SOD1 is a possible predictor of COVID-19 progression as revealed by plasma proteomics

Project description:The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a worldwide health emergency. Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 present with diverse symptoms relating to the severity of the disease. Determining the proteomic changes associated with these diverse symptoms and in different stages of infection is beneficial for clinical diagnosis and management. Here, we performed a Tandem Mass Tag (TMT)-labeling proteomic study on the plasma of healthy controls and COVID-19 patients, including those with asymptomatic infection (NS), mild syndrome (MS), and severe syndrome in the early phase (SSEP) and the later phase (SSLP). While the number of patients included in each group is low, our comparative proteomic analysis revealed that complement and coagulation cascades, cholesterol metabolism and glycolysis-related proteins were affected after infection with SARS-CoV-2. Compared to healthy controls, ELISA analysis confirmed that SOD1, PRDX2 and LDHA levels were increased in the patients with severe symptoms. Both gene set enrichment analysis and receiver operator characteristic analysis indicated that SOD1 could be a pivotal indicator for the severity of COVID-19. Our results indicated that plasma proteome changes differed based on symptoms and disease stages and SOD1 could be a predictor protein for indicating COVID-19 progression. These results may also provide new understanding for COVID-19 diagnosis and treatment.

Mouse myoblast fusion - Separating myoblast differentiation from muscle cell fusion using IGF-I and the p38 MAP kinase inhibitor SB202190

Project description:The p38 MAP kinases play critical roles in skeletal muscle biology, but the specific processes that they regulate remain poorly defined. Here we find that activity of p38α/β is important not only for early phases of myoblast differentiation, but also in later stages of myocyte fusion and myofibrillogenesis. By treating C2 myoblasts with the pro-myogenic growth factor, IGF-I, we were able to overcome the early block in differentiation imposed by co-incubation with the p38 chemical inhibitor, SB202190. Yet, IGF-I could not overcome the later impairment of muscle cell fusion, as marked by the nearly complete absence of multinucleated myofibers. Removal of SB202190 from the medium of differentiating myoblasts showed that the fusion block was reversible, as multinucleated myofibers were detected several hours later, and reached ~90% of the culture within 30 hours. Analysis by quantitative mass spectroscopy of proteins that changed in abundance following removal of the inhibitor revealed a cohort of up-regulated muscle-enriched molecules that may be important for both myofibrillogenesis and fusion. We have thus developed a model system that allows separation of myoblast differentiation from muscle cell fusion, which should be useful in identifying specific steps regulated by p38 MAP kinase-mediated signaling in myogenesis.
