Abstract

PurposesMost molecular-based published studies on breast cancer do not adequately represent the unique and diverse genetic admixture of the Latin American population. Searching for similarities and differences in molecular pathways associated with these tumors and evaluating its impact on prognosis may help to select better therapeutic approaches.Patients and MethodsWe collected clinical, pathological, and transcriptomic data of a multi-country Latin American cohort of 1,071 stage II-III breast cancer patients of the Molecular Profile of Breast Cancer Study (MPBCS) cohort. The 5-year prognostic ability of intrinsic (transcriptomic-based) PAM50 and immunohistochemical classifications, both at the cancer-specific (OSC) and disease-free survival (DFS) stages, was compared. Pathway analyses (GSEA, GSVA and MetaCore) were performed to explore differences among intrinsic subtypes.ResultsPAM50 classification of the MPBCS cohort defined 42·6% of tumors as LumA, 21·3% as LumB, 13·3% as HER2E and 16·6% as Basal. Both OSC and DFS for LumA tumors were significantly better than for other subtypes, while Basal tumors had the worst prognosis. While the prognostic power of traditional subtypes calculated with hormone receptors (HR), HER2 and Ki67 determinations showed an acceptable performance, PAM50-derived risk of recurrence best discriminated low, intermediate and high-risk groups. Transcriptomic pathway analysis showed high proliferation (i.e. cell cycle control and DNA damage repair) associated with LumB, HER2E and Basal tumors, and a strong dependency on the estrogen pathway for LumA. Terms related to both innate and adaptive immune responses were seen predominantly upregulated in Basal tumors, and, to a lesser extent, in HER2E, with respect to LumA and B tumors.ConclusionsThis is the first study that assesses molecular features at the transcriptomic level in a multicountry Latin American breast cancer patient cohort. Hormone-related and proliferation pathways that predominate in PAM50 and other breast cancer molecular classifications are also the main tumor-driving mechanisms in this cohort and have prognostic power. The immune-related features seen in the most aggressive subtypes may pave the way for therapeutic approaches not yet disseminated in Latin America.Clinical Trial RegistrationClinicalTrials.gov (Identifier: NCT02326857).

Abstract

Molecular profile of breast cancer in Latin-American women was studied in five countries: Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Mexico, and Uruguay. Data about socioeconomic characteristics, risk factors, prognostic factors, and molecular subtypes were described, and the 60-month overall cumulative survival probabilities (OS) were estimated. From 2011 to 2013, 1,300 eligible Latin-American women 18 years or older, with a diagnosis of breast cancer in clinical stage II or III, and performance status ≦̸1 were invited to participate in a prospective cohort study. Face-to-face interviews were conducted, and clinical and outcome data, including death, were extracted from medical records. Unadjusted associations were evaluated by Chi-squared and Fisher’s exact tests and the OS by Kaplan–Meier method. Log-rank test was used to determine differences between cumulative probability curves. Multivariable adjustment was carried out by entering potential confounders in the Cox regression model. The OS at 60 months was 83.9%. Multivariable-adjusted death hazard differences were found for women living in Argentina (2.27), Chile (1.95), and Uruguay (2.42) compared with Mexican women, for older (≥60 years) (1.84) compared with younger (≤40 years) women, for basal-like subtype (5.8), luminal B (2.43), and HER2-enriched (2.52) compared with luminal A subtype, and for tumor clinical stages IIB (1.91), IIIA (3.54), and IIIB (3.94) compared with stage IIA women. OS was associated with country of residence, PAM50 intrinsic subtype, age, and tumor stage at diagnosis. While the latter is known to be influenced by access to care, including cancer screening, timely diagnosis and treatment, including access to more effective treatment protocols, it may also influence epigenetic changes that, potentially, impact molecular subtypes. Data derived from heretofore understudied populations with unique geographic ancestry and sociocultural experiences are critical to furthering our understanding of this complexity.

Abstract

Sugar industry and sugar cane cropping is one of the main economic and social activities in the northwestern region of Argentina. The goal of this study was to analyze the growth dynamic and productivity of three varieties grown in two agro-ecological regions of Tucumán, Argentina. Two trials were established in different locations where EEAOC's sugar cane nurseries were established (plot 11-15 and Los Trejos). From the beginning of sprout emergence, periodic measurements of stalk population dynamics and stalk height were carried out. At the end of the cycle, cane and sugar yield per hectare (TSCH and TAH) was estimated. Plot 11-15 presented higher tiller population, between 44 and 40 stalks m-1 for LCP 85-384 and TUC 97-8 respectively. TUC 95-10 registered 30 stalks m-1 in both locations. Final number of stalks per linear meter (FN) did not evidence differences between locations, but a significant interaction location*variety was determined. In this case, LCP 85-384 registered 20 stems m-1 in Los Trejos. Individual variables stalk weight showed significant differences between locations and the highest value was observed in Los Trejos even though no significant interaction location*variety was determined. TSCH was significantly higher in Los Trejos where TUC 95-10 produced 113 t ha-1, presenting significant differences between the rests of the interactions. TUC 95-10 showed better adaptation to different agro-ecological conditions, presenting high sugar cane yields in both considered regions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

During the green harvesting system of sugarcane, a large amount of agricultural harvest residue is produced that can be left as mulch on the soil, removed from the field or incorporated into the profile, depending on the agroecological characteristics of each area. It is important to rapidly decompose the cover crop residue in areas where it is detrimental to sugarcane production. One of the alternatives to accelerate the natural decomposition of the residue is the use of lignocellulolytic fungi. The objective of this work was to isolate autochthonous fungal strains from sugarcane ARH, select and characterize culturally, morphologically and molecularly those with the greatest potential to accelerate the decomposition of the green harvest residue of the sugarcane field. Five autochthonous fungal strains were isolated from fragments of freshly harvested residue. Cellulolytic and ligninolytic activity was evaluated in vitro, using carboxymethylcellulose and guaiacol as substrates, respectively. Strain HR5E3 was the only strain able to decompose cellulose and lignin. This strain was culturally, morphologically and molecularly characterized as Trichocladium pyriforme and produced enzymes of the lignin peroxidase group, polyphenol oxidases and laccases. In solid substrate fermentation bioassays, this strain accelerated the decomposition of the residue by di-auxic growth with glucose. Trichocladium pyriforme HR5E3 could be used as a bioinoculant capable of degrading lignocellulose, and avoid the detrimental effects that the unaltered cover of the agricultural residue could have on the development of sugarcane.
