RESUMO

The outcome of stage II-III colorectal cancer (CRC) is highly variable and therapeutic choice is currently based on TNM staging with a few additional biomarkers. However, studies show that some stage III patients have a better prognosis than some stage II patients. A promising consensus molecular (CMS) classification with prognostic relevance has been developed, but it is not used in daily practice. Our team developed CINSARC, a 67-gene expression prognostic signature, whose prognostic value has been demonstrated in many cancer types. It is applicable to formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) blocks using NanoString® technology. We investigated whether it could predict outcome in stage II-III CRC. We established the CINSARC classification on the TCGA retrospective cohort comprising 297 stage II-III CRC patients using RNA sequencing and on a second independent cohort comprising 169 cases using NanoString® technology. We compared its recurrence-free and overall survival prognostic value with TNM staging and CMS classification. In the TCGA cohort, we showed that CINSARC significantly splits the population of stage II-III CRC into two groups with different progression-free interval (P = 1.68 × 10-2; HR = 1.87 [1.11-3.16]) and overall survival (P = 3.73 × 10-3; HR = 2.45 [1.31-4.59]) and is a strong prognostic factor in multivariate analysis, outperforming TNM staging and CMS classification. We validated these results in the second cohort by applying CINSARC on FFPE samples with Nanostring® technology. CINSARC is a ready-to-use tool with a robust independent prognostic value in stage II-III CRC.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To investigate the use of PTEN biomarker to improve prognostic stratification in patients with localized gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). METHODS: PTEN expression and genomic analysis were performed on two independent GIST-60 (n = 60) and GIST-100 (n = 100) cohorts, respectively. RESULTS: PTEN expression was significantly lower in patients with local and metastatic recurrent tumor compared with those with no recurrence (P = .004). PTEN low expression was significantly associated with poor disease-free survival (DFS) compared with PTEN high expression (43.73 v 117.95 months; P = .0084) and distant metastatic-free survival (DMFS; 57.95 v 117.95 months; P = .0032). PTEN heterozygous loss was observed in approximately 10% of the patients in each cohort and was associated with poor DFS compared with patients with PTEN normal status (27.56 months v not reached [NR]; P < .001) and DMFS (27.56 months v NR; P < .001). Multivariate analysis revealed that PTEN expression was an independent clinical prognosis factor besides tumor size, mitosis index, and location (hazard ratio for DFS: 3.8; P = .033; hazard ratio for DMFS 5.7, P = .01). Furthermore, PTEN low expression was independently associated with poor DMFS in clinically high-risk patients (mDMFS: 42.28 v 65.61 months; P = .0166). In addition, PTEN heterozygous loss was independently associated with poor DMFS in patients at either low/intermediate risk (mDMFS: 18.05 months for PTEN loss v NR for PTEN normal status; P < .001) or at high risk (mDMFS: 27.19 months for PTEN loss v 105.36 months for PTEN normal status; P = .044). CONCLUSION: PTEN low expression/gene loss is an independent significant prognostic factor and a promising component to strengthen the clinical prognostic tools in patients with localized GIST.

RESUMO

Upon activation, naive CD4+ T cells differentiate into distinct T cell subsets via processes reliant on epigenetically regulated, lineage-specific developmental programs. Here, we examined the function of the histone methyltransferase SETDB1 in T helper (Th) cell differentiation. Setdb1-/- naive CD4+ T cells exhibited exacerbated Th1 priming, and when exposed to a Th1-instructive signal, Setdb1-/- Th2 cells crossed lineage boundaries and acquired a Th1 phenotype. SETDB1 did not directly control Th1 gene promoter activity but relied instead on deposition of the repressive H3K9me3 mark at a restricted and cell-type-specific set of endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) located in the vicinity of genes involved in immune processes. Refined bioinformatic analyses suggest that these retrotransposons regulate Th1 gene cis-regulatory elements or act as Th1 gene enhancers. Thus, H3K9me3 deposition by SETDB1 ensures Th cell lineage integrity by repressing a repertoire of ERVs that have been exapted into cis-regulatory modules to shape and control the Th1 gene network.
