Project description:Cytologically normal airway epithelial samples were collected during bronchoscopy of current and former smokers. Subjects enrolled in this study were either under suspicion of having lung cancer, had dysplasia in their airway, or were a healthy current, former or never smoker. We supplemented existing GEO series (GSE4115 and GSE7895) with the samples in this study to explore PI3K pathway activity in the these cohorts. This study contains: 2 arrays from smokers with COPD (no lung cancer), 1 array from smoker without COPD (no lung cancer); 2 samples from patients with lung cancer, 2 samples from patients without lung cancer; 20 samples from 10 matched individuals with airway dysplasia before and after treatment with myo-inositol, 6 additional samples from individuals with airway dysplasia; 27 samples from mammary epithelial cells used in oncogenic pathway analysis that have either the PI3K pathway activated, the Np63 pathway activated, or are a GFP control.

Project description:Prior microarray studies of smokers at high risk for lung cancer have demonstrated that heterogeneity in bronchial airway epithelial cell gene expression response to smoking can serve as an early diagnostic biomarker for lung cancer. This study examines the relationship between gene expression variation and genetic variation in a central molecular pathway (NRF2-mediated antioxidant response) associated with smoking exposure and lung cancer. We assessed global gene expression in histologically normal airway epithelial cells obtained at bronchoscopy from smokers who developed lung cancer (SC, n=20), smokers without lung cancer (SNC, n=24), and never smokers (NS, n=8). Functional enrichment showed that the NRF2-mediated antioxidant response pathway differed significantly among these groups. Keywords: Global mRNA expression profiling

Project description:Down-regulation of the Notch Differentiation Pathway in the Human Airway Epithelium in Normal Smokers and Smokers with Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease; In cigarette smokers, the toxic components of smoke place the epithelium under the constant stress of a variety of mechanisms of injury, with consequent modulation of airway epithelial regeneration and disordered differentiation. Based on the underlying hypothesis that these airway epithelial changes must involve quantitative changes in genes involved with the regulation of differentiation, we assessed the expression of the Notch pathway, a signaling pathway known to play a fundamental role in the embryonic lung as a gatekeeper for differentiation, in the small airway epithelium of non-smokers, normal smokers, and smokers with COPD. Microarray analysis demonstrated that 45 of the 55 Notch pathway-related genes are expressed in the human adult small airway epithelium and TaqMan quantitative PCR confirmed the expression of key genes in the pathway. TaqMan quantitative PCR analysis of the normal small airway epithelium demonstrated that Delta-like ligand 1 is the most highly expressed Notch ligand, Notch2 and 3 the most highly expressed receptor genes, and Hes1 the predominant downstream effector gene. TaqMan PCR was used to compare gene expression in nonsmokers vs healthy smokers vs smokers with COPD. The data show that some key genes in the ligands, receptors and downstream effectors in the Notch pathway are differentially expressed in smokers, with significant downregulation of a greater number of Notch-related genes in smokers with COPD compared to healthy smokers. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that the Notch pathway, known to play an important role in lung morphogenesis, also likely plays a role in the adult human airway epithelium, with at least some of the Notch pathway gene expression dysregulated in association with smoking and its related disorder, COPD. Experiment Overall Design: Gene expression in airway epithelial cells of normal non-smokers.

Project description:Using primary human bronchial epithelial cells collected at bronchoscopy, we have perturbed signaling pathways important in regulation of response to tobacco smoke exposure and cancer development: ATM, BCL2, GPX1, NOS2, IKBKB, and SIRT1 Using gene expression profiles generated for each pathway and four independent gene expression datasets, we show that SIRT1 activity is significantly up-regulated in cytologically normal airway epithelial cells from active smokers compared to non-smokers; and in contrast, this activity is strikingly down-regulated in non-small cell lung cancer.

Project description:Rationale: Even after quitting smoking, the risk of the development of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer remains significantly higher compared to never-smokers. Objectives: Based on the knowledge that COPD and most lung cancers start in the small airway epithelium (SAE), we hypothesized that smoking modulates miRNA expression in the SAE linked to the pathogenesis of smoking-induced airway disease, and that some of these changes persist after smoking cessation. Methods: SAE was collected from 10th to 12th order bronchi using fiberoptic bronchoscopy. Affymetrix miRNA 2.0 arrays were used to assess miRNA expression in the SAE from 10 healthy never-smokers and 10 healthy smokers, before and after they quit for 3 months. Smoking status was determined by urine nicotine and cotinine measurement. Results: There were significant differences in the expression of 34 miRNAs between healthy smokers and healthy never-smokers (p<0.01, fold-change >1.5), with functions associated with lung development, airway epithelium differentiation, inflammation and cancer. After quitting smoking for 3 months, 12 out of the 34 miRNAs did not return to normal levels, with Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway the top enriched pathway of the target genes of the persistent deregulated miRNAs. Conclusions: In the context that many of these persistent smoking-dependent miRNAs are associated with differentiation, inflammation diseases or lung cancer, it is likely that persistent smoking-related changes in small airway epithelium miRNAs play a role in the subsequent development of these disorders. MicroRNA profiling identified 34 miRNAs up-regulated by cigarette smoking in human small airway epithelium. Even after quitting smoking for 3 months, 12 miRNAs didnât return to normal level.

Project description:RNA was obtained from histologically normal bronchial epithelium of smokers during time of clinical bronchoscopy from relatively accessible airway tissue. Gene expression data from smokers with lung cancer was compared with samples from smokers without lung cancer. This allowed us to generate a diagnostic gene expression profile that could distinguish the two classes. This profile could provide additional clinical benefit in diagnosing cancer amongst smokers with suspect lung cancer. Keywords: Disease state analysis

Project description:We comprehensively characterized the gene expression alterations occurring during squamous lung cancer development. Fresh frozen human bronchial biopsies (N=122) at successive morphological stages of lung squamous carcinogenesis were obtained by fluorescence bronchoscopy and analyzed using gene expression microarrays. A total of 122 biopsies from 77 individuals, 35 former and 42 current smokers, were included. The 122 biopsies were distributed according to histology and fluorescence status as follows: 13 biopsies with normal histology and normofluorescent (8/5 biopsies from former/current smokers), 14 with normal histology and hypofluorescent (8/6), 15 hyperplasia (7/8), 15 metaplasia (5/10), 13 mild dysplasia (8/5), 13 moderate dysplasia (7/6), 12 severe dysplasia (2/10), 13 carcinoma in situ (5/8) and 14 squamous cell carcinoma (SCC, 5/9). In addition, normal bronchial biopsies from 16 never-smokers were collected and pooled for use as reference RNA.
