Head and neck cancer is a frequent malignancy with a complex, and up to now not clear etiology. Therefore, despite of improvements in diagnosis and therapy, the survival rate with head and neck squamous-cell carcinomas is poor. For a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms behind the process of tumorigenesis and tumor progression, we have analyzed changes of protein expression between microdissected normal pharyngeal epithelium and tumor tissue by ProteinChip technology. For this, cryostat sections from head and neck tumors (n = 57) and adjacent mucosa (n = 44) were laser-microdissected and analyzed on ProteinChip arrays. The derived mass spectrometry profiles exhibited numerous statistical differences. One peak significantly higher expressed in the tumor (p = 0.000029) was isolated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and identified as annexin V by in-gel proteolytic digestion, peptide mapping, tandem mass spectrometry analysis, and immuno-deplete assay. The relevance of this single marker protein was further evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Annexin-positive tissue areas were re-analyzed on ProteinChip arrays to confirm the identity of this protein. In this study, we could show that biomarker in head and neck cancer can be found, identified, and assessed by combination of ProteinChip technology, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and immunohistochemistry. In our experience, however, such studies only make sense if a relatively pure microdissected tumor tissue is used. Only then minute changes in protein expression between normal pharyngeal epithelium and tumor tissue can be detected, and it will become possible to educe a tumor-associated protein pattern that might be used as a marker for tumorigenesis and progression. 相似文献

At present, the molecular mechanisms of hepatocellular carcinogenesis are not well-understood, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) stays one of the most frequent and high-risk metastatic visceral neoplasms worldwide. For the identification of tumor-relevant proteins, we analyzed microdissected cells from nontumorous liver tissue (n = 28) and tissue derived from hepatic tumor center (n = 25), as well as tumor margin (n = 23). We unequivocally identified 53 proteins from hepatic tumor tissues by peptide fingerprint mapping and SELDI mass spectrometry that were separated using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Among a number of signals that were detected as significantly different in the protein profiling analysis, we identified for the first time ferritin light subunit (FLS) and adenylate kinase 3 alpha-like 1 (AK3), showing decreased expressions in hepatic tumor, as well as biliverdin reductase B (BVRB) that was upregulated in HCC. The use of ProteinChip technology in combination with tissue microdissection gives insight of the complex changes occurring at the protein level in hepatocellular cancer associated with tumor development and progression and resulted in three new potential diagnostically useful markers. 相似文献

MOTIVATION: On the histological level the differentiation of normal epithelial tissues is well known. The phenomenon of dedifferentiation, which occurs as cells develop towards malignancy is also well described. To identify an epithelial tumor-specific proteomic profile as well as to measure the proximities between we used data from tumor tissue and adjacent normal tissue microdissected from head and neck and colon cancer samples which were analyzed using ProteinChip technology and performed a bioinformatic meta-analysis on the resulting four complex datasets. RESULTS: All four groups could be identified based on their proteomic signatures and the tumor tissues were found to be more similar to one another than to the normal epithelial tissue from which they progressed. This study shows at the proteomic level that changes in the histological features of tumors as compared to the tissues from which they arise are reflected in the convergence of proteomic pattern during the development to cancer. 相似文献

We initiated the present study to identify new genes associated with colorectal cancer. In a previously published microarray study an EST (W80763), later identified as the gene hFKBP10 (NM_021939), was found to be strongly expressed in tumors while absent in the normal mucosa. Here we describe this gene hFKBP10 together with its encoded protein hFKBP65 as a novel marker associated with colorectal cancer. Analysis of 31 colorectal adenocarcinomas and 14 normal colorectal mucosa by RealTime PCR for hFKBP10 showed a significant up-regulation in tumors, when compared with normal mucosa. Immunohistochemical analysis of 26 adenocarcinomas and matching normal mucosa, as well as benign hyperplastic polyps and adenomas, using a monoclonal anti-hFKBP65 antibody, showed that the protein was not present in normal colorectal epithelial cells, but strongly expressed in the tumor cells of colorectal cancer. The protein was also expressed in fibroblasts of both normal mucosa and tumor tissue. Western blot analysis of matched tumors and normal mucosa supported the finding of increased hFKBP65 expression in tumors compared with normal mucosa, in addition to identifying the molecular mass of hFKBP65 to approximately 72 kDa. Cellular localization and glycosylation studies revealed the hFKBP65 protein to be localized in the endoplasmic reticulum, and to be N-glycosylated. In conclusion, the protein hFKBP65 is associated with colorectal cancer, and we hypothesize the protein to be involved in fibroblast and transformed epithelial cell-specific protein synthesis in the endoplasmic reticulum. 相似文献

We analyzed 74 cryostat sections of central gastric tumor, tumor margin, and normal gastric epithelium using ProteinChip Arrays and SELDI-TOF MS. One peak was significantly down-regulated in tumor tissue (P = 1.43 x 10(-6)) and identified as pepsinogen C using MS/MS analysis and immunodepletion. This signal was further characterized by immunohistochemistry. This work demonstrates that differentially expressed signals can be identified and assessed using a proteomic approach comprising tissue-microdissection, protein profiling, and immunohistochemistry. 相似文献

Tissue-specific microdissection coupled with ProteinChip array technologies: applications in cancer research 总被引:52,自引:0,他引:52

Analysis of whole genomes to monitor specific changes in gene activation or changes in gene copy number due to perturbation has recently become possible using DNA chip technologies. It is now becoming apparent, however, that knowing the genetic sequence encoding a protein is not sufficient to predict the size or biological nature of a protein. This can be particularly important in cancer research where posttranslational modifications of a protein can specifically lead to the disease. To address this area, several proteomic tools have been developed. Currently the most widely used proteomics tool is two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE), which can display protein expression patterns to a high degree of resolution. However, 2D-PAGE can be time consuming; the analysis is complicated and, compared with DNA techniques, is not very sensitive. Although some of these problems can be alleviated by using high-quality homogeneous samples, such as those generated using microdissection techniques, the quantity of sample is often limited and may take several days to generate sufficient material for a single 2D-PAGE analysis. As an alternative to 2D-PAGE, a preliminary study using a new technique was used to generate protein expression patterns from either whole tissue extracts or microdissected material. Surface-enhanced laser desorption and ionization allows the retention of proteins on a solid-phase chromatographic surface or ProteinChip Array with direct detection of retained proteins by time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Using this system, we analyzed tumor and normal tissue from head and neck cancer and microdissected melanoma to determine differentially expressed proteins. In particular, comparisons of the protein expression patterns from microdissected normal and tumor tissues indicated several differences, highlighting the importance of extremely defined tissue lysates for protein profiling. 相似文献

The identification of specific biomarkers for colorectal cancer would provide the basis for early diagnosis, prognosis, therapy,
as well as clues for understanding the molecular mechanisms governing cancer progression. This study was designed to use comparative
proteomics technology to find the differentially expressed proteins between human colorectal carcinoma and the corresponding
normal tumor-adjacent colorectal tissues. We have used the highly sensitive two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) coupled
with matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF–MS) for the identification of
proteins differentially expressed in tumoral and neighboring normal mucosa. We have detected differences in abundance of 42
proteins with statistical variance of the tumor versus normal spot volume ratio within the 95th confidence level (Student’s
t-test; P < 0.05). 10 out of 42 analyzed proteins were unambiguously identified by MS coupled with database interrogation as being
differentially expressed in colorectal cancer. Of the 10 newly implicated proteins, HSP27 was chosen for detailed analysis.
Preliminary studies demonstrated that the differentially expressed proteins found by 2-DE could be confirmed and validated
by western blotting and immunohistochemistry analyses in those few cases. The results suggest that HSP27 might be a potential
biomarker for early diagnosis, prognosis, monitoring in the therapy of colorectal carcinoma. 相似文献

Identification of differentially expressed proteins in colorectal cancer by proteomics: down-regulation of secretagogin 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
To identify proteins with colorectal cancer-specific regulation, comparative 2-DE of individual-matched normal and neoplastic colorectal tissue specimens was performed. We found 15 protein spots with concordantly increased and 20 protein spots with concordantly decreased intensity in tumor tissue (expression regulation more than fivefold). Nine of these proteins were identified by MS/MS. Interestingly, one of the proteins, which exhibited a marked down-regulation in colorectal cancer tissues, was the recently identified endocrine cell-expressed protein secretagogin. The reduction of the secretagogin content in colorectal cancer tissues was confirmed by comparative immunoblotting (n = 17) and RT-PCR (n = 22) as well as by immunohistochemistry (n = 45) of individual-matched neoplastic and normal colorectal tissue specimens. Immunohistochemistry revealed absence of secretagogin-expressing cells in most of the colorectal cancer tissue specimens. However, some colorectal cancers were characterized by secretagogin-expressing cells. In normal mucosa, positively stained cells exhibited a neuroendocrine cell-characteristic morphology and mucosal location. In colorectal cancer tissues, secretagogin-expressing cells were characterized by a malignant morphology. Our findings might represent the basis for the clinical application of secretagogin as a biomarker for a distinct subgroup of colorectal cancers. 相似文献

Background
Lung cancer is the number one cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States and worldwide. The complex protein changes and/or signature of protein expression in lung cancer, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has not been well defined. Although several studies have investigated the protein profile in lung cancers, the knowledge is far from complete. Among early studies, mucin5B (MUC5B) has been suggested to play an important role in the tumor progression. MUC5B is the major gel-forming mucin in the airway. In this study, we investigated the overall protein profile and MUC5B expression in lung adenocarcinomas, the most common type of NSCLCs.Methods
Lung adenocarcinoma tissue in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) blocks was collected and microdissected. Peptides from 8 tumors and 8 tumor-matched normal lung tissue were extracted and labeled with 8-channel iTRAQ reagents. The labeled peptides were identified and quantified by LC-MS/MS using an LTQ Orbitrap Velos mass spectrometer. MUC5B expression identified by iTRAQ labeling was further validated using immunohistochemistry (IHC) on tumor tissue microarray (TMA).Results
A total of 1288 peptides from 210 proteins were identified and quantified in tumor tissues. Twenty-two proteins showed a greater than 1.5-fold differences between tumor and tumor-matched normal lung tissues. Fifteen proteins, including MUC5B, showed significant changes in tumor tissues. The aberrant expression of MUC5B was further identified in 71.1% of lung adenocarcinomas in the TMA.Discussions
A subset of tumor-associated proteins was differentially expressed in lung adenocarcinomas. The differential expression of MUC5B in lung adenocarcinomas suggests its role as a potential biomarker in the detection of adenocarcinomas. 相似文献11.
Rapid discovery and identification of a tissue-specific tumor biomarker from 39 human cancer cell lines using the SELDI ProteinChip platform 总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29

Useful biomarkers are needed for early detection of cancers. To demonstrate the potential diagnostic usefulness of a new proteomic technology, we performed Expression Difference Mapping analysis on 39 cancer cell lines from 9 different tissues using ProteinChip technology. A protein biomarker candidate of 12kDa was found in colon cancer cells. We then optimized the purification conditions for this biomarker by utilizing Retentate Chromatography mass spectrometry (RC-MS). The optimized purification conditions developed "on-chip" were directly transferred to conventional chromatography to purify the biomarker, which was identified as prothymosin-alpha by ProteinChip time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOF MS) and ProteinChip-Tandem MS systems. The relative expression level of prothymosin-alpha between colon cancer cells and normal colon mucosal cells was evaluated on the same ProteinChip platform. Prothymosin-alpha expression in colon cancer cells was clearly higher than in normal colon cells. These results indicate that prothymosin-alpha could be a potential biomarker for colon cancer, and that the ProteinChip platform could perform the whole process of biomarker discovery from screening to evaluation of the identified marker. 相似文献

Background: IFN regulatory factor 4-binding protein (IBP) is a novel type of activator of Rho GTPases. It has been linked with differentiation and apoptosis of lymphocytes, but its function in oncogenesis remains unclear. Here we studied the expression of endogenous IBP in four human colorectal cancer cell lines, normal, adenoma and tumor colorectal tissues. Methods: Molecular (Western blot and RT-PCR), and confocal analyses were used to investigate IBP expression in human colorectal cancer cell lines. Matched normal and tumor tissue sections of 63 patients and 15 adenoma tissue sections were analyzed for IBP expression by immunohistochemistry (IHC). Results: IBP was ubiquitely expressed in human colorectal cancer cell lines. The expression of IBP can be detected at both the mRNA and protein level in SW480, SW620 and HT29 cells. Clinically, IBP were elevated in human colorectal cancer specimens in comparison to normal colorectal tissues. Substantial high expression of IBP was observed in colorectal cancer tissues (67%), whereas corresponding normal tissues and 15 adenoma tissues showed consistently absent immunoreactivity of IBP. Moreover, IBP expression is correlated with the differentiation level of colorectal cancer cells (p < 0.05) and clinical stage of patients (p < 0.01). Conclusions: Our data show, for the first time, a dysregulated expression of IBP in human colorectal cancer, offering new perspectives for its role in cancer development and progression. IBP may be a novel tumor marker and a therapeutic target for colorectal cancer. 相似文献

Expression profiles represent new molecular tools that are useful to characterize the successive steps of tumor progression and the prediction of recurrence or chemotherapy response. In this study, we have used quantitative proteomic analysis to compare different stages of colorectal cancer. A combination of laser microdissection, OFFGEL separation, iTRAQ labeling, and MALDI-TOF/TOF MS was used to explore the proteome of 28 colorectal cancer tissues. Two software packages were used for identification and quantification of differentially expressed proteins: Protein Pilot and iQuantitator. Based on ~1,190,702 MS/MS spectra, a total of 3138 proteins were identified, which represents the largest database of colorectal cancer realized to date and demonstrates the value of our quantitative proteomic approach. In this way, individual protein expression and variation have been identified for each patient and for each colorectal dysplasia and cancer stage (stages I-IV). A total of 555 proteins presenting a significant fold change were quantified in the different stages, and this differential expression correlated with immunohistochemistry results reported in the Human Protein Atlas database. To identify a candidate biomarker of the early stages of colorectal cancer, we focused our study on secreted proteins. In this way, we identified olfactomedin-4, which was overexpressed in adenomas and in early stages of colorectal tumors. This early stage overexpression was confirmed by immunohistochemistry in 126 paraffin-embedded tissues. Our results also indicate that OLFM4 is regulated by the Ras-NF-κB2 pathway, one of the main oncogenic pathways deregulated in colorectal tumors. 相似文献

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play an important role in the cellular response to environmental stress and exert a cytoprotective effect. Especially HSP70 is an effective inhibitor of apoptosis, suggesting a role of HSP70 in carcinogenesis and tumor progression. To explore the relevance of HSP70 in renal cell carcinomas (RCCs), we analyzed nuclear and cytoplasmic HSP70 protein expression in formalin-fixed tissue from 145 clear cell RCCs by immunohistochemistry as well as Western blot analysis. Nuclear HSP70 expression was found in all RCCs and 75% of the tumors also exhibited a cytoplasmic HSP70 staining. Importantly, RCCs showed significantly reduced cytoplasmic (p=0.001) and combined nuclear/cytoplasmic (p=0.0022) HSP70 expression when compared with their cells of origin. A significant (p=0.0176) decrease of nuclear HSP70 expression became evident from well to poorly differentiated clear cell RCCs. Quite similarly, a trend (p=0.0558) for reduced combined nuclear/cytoplasmic HSP70 expression was shown from early (pT1) to advanced (pT3) tumor stages. Nevertheless, no correlation between HSP70 expression and patients survival became evident. In conclusion, our investigation demonstrates a significant decrease of antiapoptotic HSP70 protein expression during carcinogenesis and during progression from well (G1) to poorly (G3) differentiated clear cell RCCs. Our results suggest that HSP70-mediated inhibition of apoptosis seems to be of minor importance for carcinogenesis and tumor progression in RCCs. 相似文献

The role of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in cancer has been studied extensively in vitro, but involvement of the EMT in tumorigenesis in vivo is largely unknown. We investigated the potential of microRNAs as clinical markers and analyzed participation of the EMT-associated microRNA-200–ZEB–E-cadherin pathway in cancer progression. Expression of the microRNA-200 family was quantified by real-time RT-PCR analysis of fresh-frozen and microdissected formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded primary colorectal tumors, normal colon mucosa, and matched liver metastases. MicroRNA expression was validated by in situ hybridization and after in vitro culture of the malignant cells. To assess EMT as a predictive marker, factors considered relevant in colorectal cancer were investigated in 98 primary breast tumors from a treatment-randomized study. Associations between the studied EMT-markers were found in primary breast tumors and in colorectal liver metastases. MicroRNA-200 expression in epithelial cells was lower in malignant mucosa than in normal mucosa, and was also decreased in metastatic compared to non-metastatic colorectal cancer. Low microRNA-200 expression in colorectal liver metastases was associated with bad prognosis. In breast cancer, low levels of microRNA-200 were related to reduced survival and high expression of microRNA-200 was predictive of benefit from radiotheraphy. MicroRNA-200 was associated with ER positive status, and inversely correlated to HER2 and overactivation of the PI3K/AKT pathway, that was associated with high ZEB1 mRNA expression. Our findings suggest that the stability of microRNAs makes them suitable as clinical markers and that the EMT-related microRNA-200 – ZEB – E-cadherin signaling pathway is connected to established clinical characteristics and can give useful prognostic and treatment-predictive information in progressive breast and colorectal cancers. 相似文献

Expression of heat shock proteins and heat shock protein messenger ribonucleic acid in human prostate carcinoma in vitro and in tumors in vivo 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are thought to play a role in the development of cancer and to modulate tumor response to cytotoxic therapy. In this study, we have examined the expression of hsf and HSP genes in normal human prostate epithelial cells and a range of prostate carcinoma cell lines derived from human tumors. We have observed elevated expressions of HSF1, HSP60, and HSP70 in the aggressively malignant cell lines PC-3, DU-145, and CA-HPV-10. Elevated HSP expression in cancer cell lines appeared to be regulated at the post-messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) levels, as indicated by gene chip microarray studies, which indicated little difference in heat shock factor (HSF) or HSP mRNA expression between the normal and malignant prostate cell lines. When we compared the expression patterns of constitutive HSP genes between PC-3 prostate carcinoma cells growing as monolayers in vitro and as tumor xenografts growing in nude mice in vivo, we found a marked reduction in expression of a wide spectrum of the HSPs in PC-3 tumors. This decreased HSP expression pattern in tumors may underlie the increased sensitivity to heat shock of PC-3 tumors. However, the induction by heat shock of HSP genes was not markedly altered by growth in the tumor microenvironment, and HSP40, HSP70, and HSP110 were expressed abundantly after stress in each growth condition. Our experiments indicate therefore that HSF and HSP levels are elevated in the more highly malignant prostate carcinoma cells and also show the dominant nature of the heat shock-induced gene expression, leading to abundant HSP induction in vitro or in vivo. 相似文献

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection has been identified as an etiologic agent for a subset of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) with increasing incidence. HPV DNA‐positivity may confer better prognosis but the related oncogenic mechanisms are unknown. For the identification of HPV relevant proteins, we analyzed microdissected cells from HPV DNA‐positive (n = 17) and HPV DNA‐negative (n = 7) OSCC tissue samples. We identified 18 proteins from tumor tissues by peptide fingerprint mapping and SELDI MS that were separated using 2‐DE. Among a number of signals that were detected as significantly different in the protein profiling analysis, we identified thioredoxin (TRX) and epidermal‐fatty acid binding protein as upregulated in HPV related tumor tissue. This study, investigating for the first time proteomic changes in microdissected HPV infected tumor tissue, provides an indication on the oncogenic potential of viruses. 相似文献
