Abstract

Summary: This integrated, multiplatform PanCancer Atlas study co-mapped and identified distinguishing molecular features of squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) from five sites associated with smoking and/or human papillomavirus (HPV). SCCs harbor 3q, 5p, and other recurrent chromosomal copy-number alterations (CNAs), DNA mutations, and/or aberrant methylation of genes and microRNAs, which are correlated with the expression of multi-gene programs linked to squamous cell stemness, epithelial-to-mesenchymal differentiation, growth, genomic integrity, oxidative damage, death, and inflammation. Low-CNA SCCs tended to be HPV(+) and display hypermethylation with repression of TET1 demethylase and FANCF, previously linked to predisposition to SCC, or harbor mutations affecting CASP8, RAS-MAPK pathways, chromatin modifiers, and immunoregulatory molecules. We uncovered hypomethylation of the alternative promoter that drives expression of the ΔNp63 oncogene and embedded miR944. Co-expression of immune checkpoint, T-regulatory, and Myeloid suppressor cells signatures may explain reduced efficacy of immune therapy. These findings support possibilities for molecular classification and therapeutic approaches. : Campbell et al. reveal that squamous cell cancers from different tissue sites may be distinguished from other cancers and subclassified molecularly by recurrent alterations in chromosomes, DNA methylation, messenger and microRNA expression, or by mutations. These affect squamous cell pathways and programs that provide candidates for therapy.

Abstract

Aberrant DNA methylation disrupts normal gene expression in cancer and broadly contributes to oncogenesis. We previously developed MethylMix, a model-based algorithmic approach to identify epigenetically regulated driver genes. MethylMix identifies genes where methylation likely executes a functional role by using transcriptomic data to select only methylation events that can be linked to changes in gene expression. However, given that proteins more closely link genotype to phenotype recent high-throughput proteomic data provides an opportunity to more accurately identify functionally relevant abnormal methylation events. Here we present a MethylMix analysis that refines nominations for epigenetic driver genes by leveraging quantitative high-throughput proteomic data to select only genes where DNA methylation is predictive of protein abundance. Applying our algorithm across three cancer cohorts we find that using protein abundance data narrows candidate nominations, where the effect of DNA methylation is often buffered at the protein level. Next, we find that MethylMix genes predictive of protein abundance are enriched for biological processes involved in cancer including functions involved in epithelial and mesenchymal transition. Moreover, our results are also enriched for tumor markers which are predictive of clinical features like tumor stage and we find clustering using MethylMix genes predictive of protein abundance captures cancer subtypes., Author summary To elucidate the molecular basis of cancer we examine the variation and dynamics characterizing the flow of information from epigenome to the transcriptome and proteome. Conducting the first genome wide analysis of epigenome-proteome associations, we present a MethylMix analysis that leverages protein abundance data taking advantage of recent high-throughput proteomic data generated using mass-spectrometry technology to elucidate the role of DNA methylation in cancer. By integrating across molecular data types, we confirm the benefit of using protein abundance data to provide additional insights into pathways and processes involved in oncogenesis and how they manifest as clinical phenotypes. Applying our method across three large cancer cohorts including breast cancer, ovarian cancer and colorectal cancer, MethylMix identifies key genes and describes molecular features and subtypes in these cancers.

Abstract

Chromatin modifying enzymes are frequently mutated in cancer, resulting in widespread epigenetic deregulation. Recent reports indicate that inactivating mutations in the histone methyltransferase NSD1 define an intrinsic subtype of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) that features pronounced DNA hypomethylation. Here, we describe a similar hypomethylated subtype of lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) that is enriched for both inactivating mutations and deletions in NSD1. The 'NSD1 subtypes' of HNSC and LUSC are highly correlated at the DNA methylation and gene expression levels, featuring ectopic expression of developmental transcription factors and genes that are also hypomethylated in Sotos syndrome, a congenital disorder caused by germline NSD1 mutations. Further, the NSD1 subtype of HNSC displays an 'immune cold' phenotype characterized by low infiltration of tumor-associated leukocytes, particularly macrophages and CD8+ T cells, as well as low expression of genes encoding the immunotherapy target PD-1 immune checkpoint receptor and its ligands. Using an in vivo model, we demonstrate that NSD1 inactivation results in reduced T cell infiltration into the tumor microenvironment, implicating NSD1 as a tumor cell-intrinsic driver of an immune cold phenotype. NSD1 inactivation therefore causes epigenetic deregulation across cancer sites, and has implications for immunotherapy. Fil: Brennan, Kevin. University of Stanford; Estados Unidos Fil: Shin, June Ho.

Abstract

Chilling and heat requirements for breaking dormancy and flowering were studied in 63 nectarine and118 peach genotypes (Prunus persica (L.) Batsch) for seven years. We compared two methods for estima-tion of requirements and four models for calculation of chill accumulation: Chilling Hours (CH), ChillingUnits (CU), Positive Chilling Units (PCU) and Dynamic, while heat accumulations were estimated in grow-ing degree hours (GDH). Additionally, correlations between chilling requirements, heat requirements andflowering date were established. Our results suggest that the Luedeling model is better than the Alonsomodel to estimate chilling and heat requirements in our field conditions. Moreover, it is recommend-able to calculate the chill accumulation in accordance with the Chilling Hours or Positive Utah models.Additionally, since chilling requirements were positively correlated with flowering dates, they seem tobe important to regulate blooming in nectarine and peach genotypes.
