Project description:A recent study by Castelo-Branco, P., et al. Methylation of the TERT promoter and risk stratification of childhood brain tumours: an integrative genomic and molecular study. Lancet Oncol 2013;14:534-542 found upstream of the transcription start site (UTSS) hypermethylation of TERT is associated with tumor progression and poor prognosis in paediatric brain tumours. They interpreted that the UTSS region of telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) gene is a potentially accessible biomarker for various cancers. This study, we aimed to explore the role of TERT in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to investigate whether the UTSS region of TERT promoter shows the same methylation pattern in HCC. We analyzed a methylation assay of TERT including the UTSS region in 125 paired HCC samples using Mass Array EpiTyper (Sequenom, SanDiego, CA, USA). To obtain the relationship between TERT promoter methylation status and TERT expression level, we analysed a validation group of 12 paired HCC samples and acquired the FPKM value of TERT gene.

Project description:We compared standard human reference genome GRCh38 and de novo assembled reference genome HX1 in precision medicine applications for specific ethnics. In order to quantify the HX1 misassembled genes and HX1-specific contigs, we performed RNA-seq and RNC-seq on hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines (MHCC97H, MHCCLM3 and MHCCLM6) which were derived from Chinese Han individuals. In which, RNC-seq datasets of MHCC97H and MHCCLM3 had been published. We found that a considerable fraction of HX1 misassembled genes was expressed in the Chinese Han samples. Furthermore, we found no HX1-specific contigs yielded more than 2.27 FPKM (minimun FPKM of 1 copy/cell transcript) in the Chinese Han sampels.

Project description:Point mutations within the TERT promoter are the most common recurrent somatic non-coding mutation identified across different cancer types, including glioblastoma, melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma and bladder cancer. They are most abundant at C146T and C124T and more rare at A57C, with the latter originally described as a familial case but subsequently shown also to occur somatically. All three mutations create de novo ETS (E-twenty-six specific) binding sites and result in the reactivation of the TERT gene, allowing cancer cells to achieve replicative immortality. Here, we employed a systematic proteomics screen to identify transcription factors preferentially binding to the C146T, C124T and A57C mutations. While we confirmed binding of multiple ETS factors to the mutant C146T and C124T sequences, we identified E4F1 a an A57C-specific binder and ZNF148 as a TERT WT binder that is excluded from the TERT promoter by the C124T allele. Both proteins are activating transcription factors that bind specifically to the A57C and wildtype (at position 124) TERT promoter sequence in corresponding cell lines and upregulate TERT transcription and telomerase activity.

Project description:Prior investigations have delineated the multifarious roles of EGFL7 within various cancer contexts. Nevertheless, the precise involvement of EGFL7 in the realm of human cervical carcinoma remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the relationship between EGFL7 polymorphisms and cervical cancer susceptibility in the Han Chinese population. Concurrently, we have scrutinized the expression patterns of EGFL7 in both the neoplastic cervical tissues and the cell lines HeLa and C33A. Furthermore, we explored the potential biological functions that EGFL7 may assume in the tumorigenesis of cervical cancer. Our findings manifest that the single nucleotide polymorphism rs9411260, ensconced within the transcriptional regulatory domain of EGFL7, is associated with cervical cancer risk in a Han Chinese population. Additionally, the mRNA expression of EGFL7 within cervical carcinoma tissues and the HeLa and C33A cell lines exhibits a marked reduction when compared with their adjacent normal counterparts and ECT1/E6E7 cells. Manipulation of EGFL7 expression precipitates alterations in the adhesion and migratory ability of cervical cancer cells. This investigation endows us with novel insights into the pathogenesis of cervical cancer.

Project description:Background: The number of red blood cells (RBCs) increases significantly in response to high-altitude hypoxic environments, and the RBC microRNA (miRNA) expression pattern is similar to that in whole blood. Studies have shown that miRNA in plasma can act as a circulating hypoxia-associated marker, but the effect of a high-altitude hypoxic environment on RBC-derived miRNAs has not yet been reported. Methods: Blood samples were collected from 20 Han Chinese individuals residing at 500 m (Sichuan Han), 10 migrant Han Chinese citizens residing at 3658 m (Tibet Han) and 12 native Tibetans, and RBC indices measurements and miRNA sequencing analyses were performed for the three sample groups. The levels of some markedly altered miRNAs at high altitude were subsequently measured from 5 randomly selected samples of each group by real-time PCR. Bioinformatic analyses was performed to determine the potential target genes of selected hypoxia-associated miRNAs. Results: Marked changes of several RBC indices were observed among the Tibet Han population, the Tibetan population and the Sichuan Han population. A total of 516 miRNAs derived from RBCs were initially identified by miRNA sequencing in the three sample groups. Compared with the Sichuan Han population, 49 miRNAs were differentially expressed in the Tibet Han population (17 upregulated and 32 downregulated). 12 upregulated and 21 downregulated miRNAs were observed in the Tibetan population compared with the Sichuan Han population. A total of 40 RBC miRNAs were differentially expressed in the Tibetan population (15 upregulated and 25 downregulated) compared with the Tibet Han population. Two significantly altered miRNAs with the highest expression levels (miRNA-144-5p and miR-30b-5p) were selected for real-time PCR analysis, and the results were consistent with those of miRNA sequencing. Furthermore, bioinformatic analyses showed that some potential target genes of miR-144-5p and miR-30b-5p are involved in the erythroid- hypoxia-, and nitric oxide (NO)-related signaling pathways in response to hypoxia. Conclusion: Our findings provide clear evidence, for the first time, that a high-altitude hypoxic environment significantly affects human RBC miRNA profiles.

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. 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. 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:Leprosy is a chronic granulomatous disease caused by infection with Mycobacterium leprae. Genetic association studies indicated that leprosy risk is strongly associated with variation within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region, but the full number of variants in this region has yet to be elucidated. To identify further susceptibility loci or loss of function variants for this disease, we performed fine-mapping analysis of the MHC region using a Han Chinese reference panel (n= 10,689 patients, 29,948 genetic markers) in the data sets from our previous leprosy studies. Then, a fixed-effect meta-analysis was carried out separately for Chinese (case=2,901, control=3,801) and North Chinese (case=1,983, control=2,635) participants. The meta-analysis of Chinese participants identified 10 HLA-type or amino acid variants with lower than the genome-wide significant susceptibility signal. Next, gene-by-gene step-wise conditional analysis was performed in the combined dataset of these cohorts. Finally, we identified four new independent susceptibility loci (HLA-DQA1, HLA-C, rs3129063, and rs58327373) and confirmed one previously reported locus (HLA-DRB1) that significantly associated with leprosy in the Chinese Han population. Thus the results of this study increase knowledge about leprosy risk variants and illustrate the value of HLA imputation for fine mapping of causal variants in the MHC.
