The Key Role Of Mecom Complex Locus And Its Products In High-Grade Ovarian Carcinoma Pathogenesis And Clinical Outcomes
CANCER RESEARCH(2015)
摘要
The ecotropic virus integration site 1(Evi1) transcription factor, encoded in the MECOM complex locus, is implicated in several cancers, including ovarian cancer(OC). High-grade serous OC(HG-SOC) represents its most common and aggressive form. The pathobiological and clinical roles of MECOM and its products in HG-SOC are poorly understood. Here, across all HG-SOC stages and grades, our meta-analysis demonstrated MECOM amplification in about 80% and EVI1 overexpression in 100% HG-SOC samples, relative to normal controls. We observed that Evi1 directly promotes double-strand DNA breaks repair via binding to DNA recombination/repair protein complexes, including a novel Rad50 isoform. To elucidate the molecular basis and clinical significance of these findings, we studied genome-wide genome-wide Evi1-DNA binding, DNA copy number alterations, gene expression and proteome-scale Evi1 interactions, combining cell line and clinical meta-data and network/pathway analyses. Our experiments revealed major, previously unknown Evi1-binding DNA motifs specifying expression of 309 target genes, whose protein products were classified into eight functional and prognosis-significant modules implicated in embryogenesis, EMT, RNA metabolism, cancer cell survival, retinoic acid, anti-viral and therapeutic responses. The Evi1 pathway modules can collectively stratify the HG-SOC patients into four high-confidence post-surgery survival subgroups(P Starting from early stages of HG-SOC, MECOM/Evi1 amplifies genomic instability and activates the Evi1 pathway that promotes most cancer hallmarks. Thus, MECOM/Evi1 and the Evi1 pathway provide mechanistic means for HG-SOC re-classification, introduces high-confidence early diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers and perspective therapeutic targets.
