Project description:Purpose: To gain molecular insights of HBV integration that may contribute to HCC tumorigenesis, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing and whole genome copy number profiling of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) samples from 50 Chinese patients. Results: We identified a total of 33 HBV-human integration sites in 16 of 44 HBV-positive HCC tissues, which were enriched in HBV genotype C-infected patients. In addition, significantly recurrent HBV-MLL4 integration (18%). This dataset is part of the TransQST collection.

Results: We identified a total of 33 HBV-human integration sites in 16 of 44 HBV-positive HCC tissues, which were enriched in HBV genotype C-infected patients. In addition, significantly recurrent HBV-MLL4 integration (18%; 8/44) was found in this cohort of patients. Conclusions: This is the first report on the molecular basis of the MLL4 integration driving MLL4 over-expression. HBV-MLL4 integration occurred frequently in Chinese HCC patients, representing a unique molecular segment for HCC with HBV infection.

Project description:<p>Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major risk factor for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). In this study we sequenced the whole genome (~80X) and transcriptome of tumor and non-tumor samples from four HCC patients and identified over two hundred HBV integration sites. We found significant clonal expansion of HBV-integrated hepatocytes specifically in the tumor samples. We observed a diverse collection of genomic perturbations near viral integration sites, including gene disruption, viral promoter-driven human transcription, viral-human transcript fusion and DNA copy number alteration. We also sequenced one patient at ultra-high coverage (~240X) to build the most comprehensive HBV-integration landscape yet attempted. Our data suggest that the viral integration significantly expands carcinogenic opportunities in HBV-infected individuals.</p>

Project description:Purpose: Chronic Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection leads to liver fibrosis which is a major risk factor in Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and an independent risk factor of recurrence after HCC tumor resection. HBV genome can be inserted into human genome, and chronic inflammation may trigger somatic mutations. Several studies characterized HBV integration sites in HCC patients with regard to frequently occurring hotspots. However, how HBV integration and other genomic changes contribute to the risk of tumor recurrence with regard to different degree of liver fibrosis is not clearly understood. In this study, we aim to find potential molecular mechanisms underlying tumor recurrence of HBV-associated HCC (HBV-HCC) with different degree of liver fibrosis. Methods: We performed RNA sequencing of 21 pairs of tumor and non-neoplastic liver tissues of HBV-HCC patients and performed comprehensive genomic analysis of our RNAseq data and public available sequencing data related to HBV-HCC. We developed a robust pipeline for sensitively identifying HBV integration sites based on sequencing data. Simulations with sequencing data showed that our method outperformed existing methods. We also compared SNPs of each sample with SNPs in cancer census database and inferred patient’s pathogenic SNP loads in tumor and non-neoplastic liver tissues. Conclusions: The HBV-integration and pathogenic SNP load patterns for HCC recurrence risk vary depending on liver fibrosis stage, suggesting potentially different tumorigenesis mechanisms for low and high liver fibrosis patients.

We profiled 50 Chinese Hepatocellular Carcinoma patients and 14 adjacent tissues using Agilent 244K array CGH technology. 50 Tumor samples also did RNASeq profiling.

Project description:Here we report 16s rRNA data in gut microbiota of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with HBV induced HCC (HBVC) and non-HBV induced HCC (NHBVC) compared with healthy volunteers. A total of 2047 operational taxonomic units (OTUs) were identified in the sequence data. Our data shows that the NHBVC patients harbor lower anti-inflammatory bacteria and more pro-inflammatory bacteria, while the HBVC patients harbor more anti-inflammatory bacteria.

Project description:Purpose: Aberrantly methylated DNA are hallmarks for many cancers, HCC included. Tumor shed its DNA into circulation stream, and serum DNA methylation analysis is a less-invasive and accessable way to judge the primary tumor status. The goals of this study are to compare DNA methylation profiling in serum cell-free DNA from different stages of HCC progression including healthy control, chronic HBV carrier, HBV-related liver Cirrhosis and HCC, to establish HCC development-related aberrnat DNA methylation patterns. Methods: MBD methylCap/seq was carried out to screen differentially methylated CpG islands in serum cell-free DNA on four different stage of HBV-related HCC development. MSP and multiplex-BSP validation was performed using independent serum DNA or tumor and adjacent tissues. Results: Using a MBD methylCap/seq platform, we produced 33- to 37- million raw reads per sample and mapped them, in about half of the raw reads, to human genome(build h19) in the serum cf DNA of healthy control, HBV carrier, HBV cirrhosis and HCC. The mapped reads formed 180k to 260k peaks per sample, with 160 k common peaks shared by four samples. After subtraction of the common peaks, there left 51k, 107k and 78 k DMRs representing hypermethylations, in HBV carrier, HBV cirrhosis and HCC, respectively. We define those DMRs as early, middle and late when these DMRS occurred and maintained in HBV carrier, HBV cirrhosis and HCC, which including 27k, 24k and 19k DMRs, corresponding to 1,416, 1,337, 1,006 genes. GO analysis of them revealed gene categories and pathways associated with tumorogenenisis related process Conclusions: Our study represents the first detailed analysis of serum cf-DNA methylation profiling in the progression of HBV related HCC development. The processed data analysis here offers a comprehensive evaluation of DNA methylation in serum cf DNA. We conclude that MBD methylCap/seq based methylation profiling would benefit epigenetic research in HCC.

Project description:Here, we generated full-length single cell transcriptome data for ~9,000 cells from clinical samples of 11 liver cancer patients to delineate cellular relationships of diverse malignant, immune and stromal cells. We identified an immunomodulatory fibroblast population, FAP+CCL19+CCL21+ CAFs, that expressed signatures of fibroblastic reticular cells and was associated with favorable prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). These CAFs exhibited the potential to recruit NK cells and regulate tumor-associated macrophages, and appeared to be regulated by CXCL12+ endothelial cells in tumors through specific ligand-receptor interaction. Further, we uncovered clonal HBV integration events enriched in tumor cells, and trajectory analysis on tumor cells with clonal HBV integration events revealed that hepatoblast-like cells differentiated into a terminal state with high expression of an immune-resistance program. The intercellular crosstalks between CAFs and cancer cells, macrophages, and NK cells, combined with HBV-based lineage tracing, provide a better understanding for functional roles of CAFs in the HCC microenvironment, and the relationship between HBV integration and liver malignancies.
