The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 450,000 CpGs in oral rinse samples. Bisulphite lsconverted DNA from the 82 oral rinse samples were hybridized to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip
Project description:Epigenome-wide association study (EWAS) of oral rinse samples from a case-control study of 154 cases and 72 controls. The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 450,000 CpGs in oral rinse samples.
Project description:DNA methylation profiling of heterogeneous head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cohorts has been reported to predict patient outcome. We investigated if a prognostic DNA methylation profile could be found in tumour tissue from a single uniform subsite, the oral tongue. The methylation status of 83 comprehensively annotated oral tongue squamous cell carcinoma (OTSCC) formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples from a single institution were examined with the Illumina HumanMethylation450K (HM450K) array.

Project description:Oral cavity squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is a disease with extensive morbidity and mortality and few useful molecular targets. Multiplatform integrated genomic analysis was performed in order to identify genomic drivers and molecularly discernible tumor subtypes. mRNA, miRNA and methylation data are all submitted to GEO We measured methylation of 42 OSCC tumors, 2 normal oral epithelial tissues, and 2 normal blood samples with Illumina HumanMethylation450 arrays
Project description:This study aims to compare the DNA methylome across a large cohort of oral squamous cell carcinoma and matched normal samples. DNA from 44 OSCCs and paired normal mucosa were analysed using Illumina GoldenGate methylation array. This data was correlated with extracapsular spread (extracapsular spread), Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) status, recurrence and 5-year survival.

Project description:The hypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME) is a common hallmark of solid cancers, including oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Hypoxia is predominantly regulated by the hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) and can alter the histone acetylation and methylation profile involved in drug resistance and possible therapeutic options for solid cancer. Vorinostat (suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid, SAHA) is a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) that targets HIF-1α stability, whereas PX-12 (1-methylpropyl 2-imidazolyl disulfide) is a thioredoxin-1 (Trx-1) inhibitor that prevents HIF-1α accumulation. Although HDACi are efficient in cancer treatment, they are accompanied by several adverse effects and increased resistance. This can be averted by combining HDACi with a Trx-1 inhibitor, as both inhibitors are connected by interlinked inhibitory pathways. HDACi inhibit Trx-1, leading to elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation and death in cancerous cells; consequently, utilizing a Trx-1 inhibitor can boost the efficacy of HDACi. Previously, we investigated a synergistic interaction between vorinostat and PX-12 in an oral squamous carcinoma (OSCC) cell line under hypoxia. Here, we report to determine the effect of both inhibitors on histone acetylation and methylation expression levels under hypoxia in the CAL 27 cell line using mass spectrometry. We found several crucial histone marks, such as H3K4me1, H3K9ac, H3K9me, H3K14ac, H3K27me, H3K36me, H4K12Ac, and H4K16ac. The global analysis for histone acetylation and methylation and on specific residue shows their expression level was altered differentially by individual and combined inhibitor treatment. Our results provide an implication to investigate the underlying epigenetic mechanisms of histone acetylation and methylation levels in oral squamous cell carcinoma for a better understanding of developing drugs for cancer therapy.
