Project description:Insights into oncogenesis derived from cancer susceptibility loci (single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNP) hold the potential to facilitate better cancer management and treatment through precision oncology. However, therapeutic insights have thus far been limited by our current lack of understanding regarding both interactions of these loci with somatic cancer driver mutations and their influence on tumorigenesis. For example, while both germline and somatic genetic variation to the p53 tumor suppressor pathway are known to promote tumorigenesis, little is known about the extent to which such variants cooperate to alter pathway activity. Here we hypothesize that cancer risk-associated germline variants interact with somatic TP53 mutational status to modify cancer risk, progression, and response to therapy. Focusing on a cancer risk SNP (rs78378222) with a well-documented ability to directly influence p53 activity as well as integration of germline datasets relating to cancer susceptibility with tumor data capturing somatically-acquired genetic variation provided supportive evidence for this hypothesis. Integration of germline and somatic genetic data enabled identification of a novel entry point for therapeutic manipulation of p53 activities. A cluster of cancer risk SNPs resulted in increased expression of pro-survival p53 target gene KITLG and attenuation of p53-mediated responses to genotoxic therapies, which were reversed by pharmacological inhibition of the pro-survival c-KIT signal. Together, our results offer evidence of how cancer susceptibility SNPs can interact with cancer driver genes to affect cancer progression and identify novel combinatorial therapies.

Project description:A novel heterozygous germline variant, c.547G>A (p.Gly183Ser), in the paired box protein encoding gene, PAX5, was found to segregate with disease in two unrelated kindreds with autosomal dominant pre-B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Leukemic cells from both families exhibited 9p deletion, with loss-of-heterozygosity and retention of the mutant PAX5 allele at 9p13. Two additional sporadic ALL cases with 9p loss demonstrated PAX5 Gly183 substitution in the leukemic cells. Functional and gene expression analysis of the PAX5 germline variants demonstrated reduced transcriptional activity. These data extend the role of PAX5 alterations in the pathogenesis of pre-B ALL, and implicate PAX5 in a novel syndrome of germline susceptibility to pre-B cell neoplasia. We analyzed 40 samples comprising sevenfold replicates of transductions with empty vector, wild type PAX5 and 4 mutant PAX5 constructs

We analyzed 10 samples of J558 murine myeloma cells infected with MSCV-Puro-IRES-GFP (PIG) empty vector (EV; three independent replicates), MSCV-PIG Pax5 WT (WT; three independent replicates), and MSCV-PIG Pax5 G183S (Mut; four independent replicates). Cells were selected with puromycin after infection for 5-7 days, subsequently cells were sorted for GFP and IgM expression by FACS.

Project description:We identified pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants in 17.8% of the patients within a wide range of cancer types. In particular, mesothelioma, ovarian cancer, cervical cancer, urothelial cancer, and cancer of unknown primary origin displayed high frequencies of pathogenic variants. In total, 22 BRCA1 and BRCA2 germline variant were identified in 12 different cancer types, of which 10 (45%) variants were not previously identified in these patients. Pathogenic germline variants were predominantly found in DNA repair pathways; approximately half of the variants were within genes involved in homologous recombination repair. Loss of heterozygosity and somatic second hits were identified in several of these genes, supporting possible causality for cancer development. A potential treatment target based on pathogenic germline variant could be suggested in 25 patients (4%).
