Abstract 3258: Genomic analyses define molecular subtype of lung squamous cell carcinoma
Cancer Research(2017)
Abstract
Abstract Lung squamous cell carcinoma, which account for 25 percent of all lung cancers, have not been well characterized owing to a lack of systematic understanding of molecular pathogenesis. We performed the whole-exome and transcriptome sequencing from 101 tumors and matched normal samples from Korean patients. Somatic mutations and gene expression defined two intrinsic subtypes: (1) classical subtype; (2) immunogenic subtype. Classical subtype displayed upregulation of cell cycle related genes and enriched for gene mutations (TP53, NAV3, NFE2L2, CDKN2A, PIK2CA, KEAP1 and RB1) involved in cell proliferation, squamous differentiation and oxidative stress. Immunogenic subtype had more tumor-infiltrating immune cells than classical type. More proportion of adaptive immune cells was also detected in immunogenic subtype. Immune genes, involved in adaptive immune response, were also upregulated in immunogenic subtype. Taken together, our finding revealed that each subtype has different immune mechanisms in lung squamous cell carcinoma and provides potential opportunities for therapeutic development.
