Identification of Rare Noncoding Variants in Familial Nonmedullary Thyroid Carcinoma.

BACKGROUND: Familial nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma (FNMTC) occurs when three or more family members are affected by usually papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), the most common form of NMTC. While the heritability to NMTC is among the highest of all cancers, the genetic determinants among NMTC families are not well understood. Here, we aim to understand the contribution of rare noncoding germline variants in the etiology of FNMTC. METHODS: We previously reported whole-genome sequencing (WGS) and linkage analysis in 17 PTC families and reported on 41 protein-coding variants in 40 genes that cosegregated with PTC in 11 of the families. Herein, we further leveraged our WGS data to include noncoding variants in our analysis for all 17 families. We hypothesized that most of the pathogenic noncoding variants would be located in theoretical or empirically determined regulatory regions that demonstrate at a minimum, basal thyroid expression, a positive family linkage score, and co-segregation among PTC-affected individuals. To test this hypothesis, we adopted a unique filtering strategy to identify variants that occurred in known DNA elements and transcription factor binding sites, near regions known to impact on gene expression or splicing in thyroid tissue, and/or in characterized thyroid enhancers. We annotated variants using two analyses (ENCODE and transcription factor binding site) within the BasePlayer software. We separately analyzed (1) expression quantitative trait loci, (2) splicing quantitative trait loci, and (3) thyroid enhancers. We then ranked variants according to predicted pathogenicity and performed Sanger sequencing in all individuals of each family. RESULTS: In total, 121 variants were selected based on in-silico prediction and our custom ranking analysis in each pedigree. Of these, 56 variants showed cosegregation among all PTC-affected individuals and were absent from unaffected individuals. This included candidate variants from five of the six PTC families for whom no protein-coding variants were previously found. CONCLUSION: Our data suggest that noncoding variants are important in the etiology of FNMTC and provide a framework for identifying noncoding germline variants using a novel approach. Further studies are needed to functionally characterize these variants to better understand the molecular mechanism of their pathogenicity.

AKT in thyroid tumorigenesis and progression.

AKT (protein kinase B) is a central signaling molecule in the phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase pathway that is frequently activated in human cancer. AKT activation regulates energy metabolism, apoptosis, proliferation, and migration in many cell systems. In thyroid cancer, AKT activation is involved in tumorigenesis, particularly in both inherited and sporadic forms of follicular thyroid cancer. Phosphatidyl inositol 3-kinase and AKT signaling also appear to play an important role in progression of both papillary and follicular cancers. In this review, the role of AKT in thyroid cancer development and progression are discussed with a focus on areas of current debate in the literature.

Phase II study of celecoxib in metastatic differentiated thyroid carcinoma.

CONTEXT: There is increased cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression in malignant thyroid nodules compared with nonneoplastic and benign thyroid tissue. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of celecoxib, a selective COX-2 inhibitor, in treating patients with progressive metastatic differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and to explore the relationship of clinical response to tumor COX-2 expression with immunohistochemistry in a subset of patients. DESIGN: The study was a prospective phase II trial with Fleming single-stage design powered at 80% with a 5% rejection error to detect more than 20% progression-free survival at 12 months. SETTING: Ambulatory patients were from tertiary referral academic medical centers. PATIENTS: Patients in the study had progressive metastatic DTC and had failed prior standard therapy. INTERVENTION: Patients were treated with celecoxib 400 mg orally twice a day for 12 months. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: The main outcome measure was progression-free survival at 12 months of treatment using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors and/or serum thyroglobulin. RESULTS: Twenty-three of 32 patients experienced progressive disease or stopped therapy due to toxicity, thus fulfilling the intent-to-treat study endpoint for celecoxib failure. One patient achieved partial response, and one patient completed 12 months of therapy progression-free. The patient with partial response was on therapy along with seven other patients when the study was terminated. CONCLUSIONS: Celecoxib 400 mg orally twice per day fails to halt progressive metastatic DTC in most patients.

BRAF mutation predicts a poorer clinical prognosis for papillary thyroid cancer.

CONTEXT: Use of BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) has the potential to improve risk stratification of this cancer. OBJECTIVE: The objective of the study was to investigate the prognostic value of BRAF mutation in patients with PTC. DESIGN, SETTING, AND SUBJECTS: In a multicenter study of 219 PTC patients, data on their clinicopathological characteristics and clinical courses between 1990 and 2004 were retrospectively collected, and their tumor BRAF mutation status was determined. Associations of BRAF mutation with initial tumor characteristics and subsequent recurrence were analyzed. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Relationships between the BRAF mutation status and clinicopathological outcomes, including recurrence, were measured. RESULTS: We found a significant association between BRAF mutation and extrathyroidal invasion (P < 0.001), lymph node metastasis (P < 0.001), and advanced tumor stage III/IV (P = 0.007) at initial surgery. This association remained significant on multivariate analysis, adjusting for conventional clinicopathological predictors of recurrence excluding the histological PTC subtype, but was lost when the tumor subtype was included in the model. BRAF mutation was also significantly associated with tumor recurrence, 25 vs. 9% with and without mutation, respectively (P = 0.004), during a median of 15 (interquartile range, 3-29) months of follow-up. This association remained significant on multivariate analysis adjusting for conventional clinicopathological predictors of recurrence, even including the PTC subtype (odds ratio, 4.0; 95% confidence interval, 1.1-14.1; P = 0.03). BRAF mutation was even an independent predictor of recurrence in patients with stage I/II disease, 22 vs. 5% with and without BRAF mutation, respectively (P = 0.002). BRAF mutation was also more frequently associated with absence of tumor I-131 avidity and treatment failure of recurrent disease. CONCLUSIONS: In patients with PTC, BRAF mutation is associated with poorer clinicopathological outcomes and independently predicts recurrence. Therefore, BRAF mutation may be a useful molecular marker to assist in risk stratification for patients with PTC.

A mouse model of albright hereditary osteodystrophy generated by targeted disruption of exon 1 of the Gnas gene.

Albright hereditary osteodystrophy is caused by heterozygous inactivating mutations in GNAS, a gene that encodes not only the alpha-chain of Gs (Galphas), but also NESP55 and XLalphas through use of alternative first exons. Patients with GNAS mutations on maternally inherited alleles are resistant to multiple hormones such as PTH, TSH, LH/FSH, GHRH, and glucagon, whose receptors are coupled to Gs. This variant of Albright hereditary osteodystrophy is termed pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a and is due to presumed tissue-specific paternal imprinting of Galphas. Previous studies have shown that mice heterozygous for a targeted disruption of exon 2 of Gnas, the murine homolog of GNAS, showed unique phenotypes dependent on the parent of origin of the mutated allele. However, hormone resistance occurred only when the disrupted gene was maternally inherited. Because disruption of exon 2 is predicted to inactivate Galphas as well as NESP55 and XLalphas, we created transgenic mice with disruption of exon 1 to investigate the effects of isolated loss of Galphas. Heterozygous mice that inherited the disruption maternally (-m/+) exhibited PTH and TSH resistance, whereas those with paternal inheritance (+/-p) had normal hormone responsiveness. Heterozygous mice were shorter and, when the disrupted allele was inherited maternally, weighed more than wild-type littermates. Galphas protein and mRNA expression was consistent with paternal imprinting in the renal cortex and thyroid, but there was no imprinting in renal medulla, heart, or adipose. These findings confirm the tissue-specific paternal imprinting of GNAS and demonstrate that Galphas deficiency alone is sufficient to account for the hormone resistance of pseudohypoparathyroidism type 1a.

AKT activation promotes metastasis in a mouse model of follicular thyroid carcinoma.

The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/AKT pathway is crucial to many cell functions, and its dysregulation in tumors is a common finding. The molecular basis of follicular thyroid cancer metastasis is not well understood but may also be influenced by AKT activation. We previously created a knockin mutant mouse that expresses a mutant thyroid hormone receptor-beta gene (TRbetaPV mouse) that spontaneously develops thyroid cancer and distant metastasis similar to human follicular thyroid cancer. In this study, we investigated whether our mouse model exhibits similar AKT activation as human follicular thyroid cancer. Western blot analysis on thyroids from both wild-type and TRbeta(PV/PV) mice revealed elevation of activated AKT in TRbeta(PV/PV) mice. Immunohistochemistry and confocal microscopy reveal activated AKT in both the thyroid and metastatic lesions of TRbeta(PV/PV) mice. Whereas all three AKT isoforms were overexpressed in primary tumors from TRbeta(PV/PV) mice in the cytoplasm of thyroid cancer cells, only AKT1 was also found in the nucleus, matching the localization of activated AKT in a pattern similar to human follicular thyroid cancer. In the metastases, all AKT isoforms correlated with phosphorylated AKT nuclear localization. We created primary thyroid cell lines derived from TRbeta(PV/PV) mice and found reduction of phosphorylated AKT levels or AKT downstream targets diminishes cell motility. Activated AKT is common to both human and mouse follicular thyroid cancer and is correlated with increased cell motility in vitro and metastasis in vivo. Thus, TRbeta(PV/PV) mice could be used to further dissect the detailed pathways underlying the progression and metastasis of follicular thyroid carcinoma.

KiSS-1/G protein-coupled receptor 54 metastasis suppressor pathway increases myocyte-enriched calcineurin interacting protein 1 expression and chronically inhibits calcineurin activity.

OBJECTIVE: Tumor metastasis is a critical determinant of death from cancer. Metastin, a product of the KiSS-1 gene, is an endogenously expressed metastasis suppressor that is the ligand for G protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54), a Gq/11-coupled receptor. In the present study, our goal was to define the basis of GPR54 action using thyroid cancer cells as a model. DESIGN AND RESULTS: We used GPR54-null thyroid cancer cells to create a stable GPR54 overexpression model. Cell growth and cell migration of the GPR54-expressing lines were inhibited by recombinant metastin, and metastin stimulated the protein kinase C, ERK, and phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase pathways. To identify metastin-regulated genes, we performed microarray analyses using RNA isolated from GPR54 stable transfectants before and after 1 and 24 h of metastin stimulation. Consistent increases in expression of the gene encoding myocyte-enriched calcineurin interacting protein 1 (MCIP-1), an inhibitor of calcineurin, were identified and confirmed using real-time RT-PCR and Western blot. Functionally, metastin treatment of GPR54-expressing cells initially increased calcineurin activity, followed by a prolonged reduction in calcineurin activity for 24 and 48 h, consistent with the pattern of MCIP-1 expression. In addition, treatment with cyclosporin A, a calcineurin inhibitor, blocked cell migration. Lymph node metastasis in papillary thyroid cancers demonstrated loss of MCIP-1 expression in comparison with primary tumors. CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest a role for MCIP-1 and calcineurin inhibition in GPR54-mediated metastasis suppression in human cancers.

Akt1 contains a functional leucine-rich nuclear export sequence.

Nuclear Akt1 expression and Akt activation are common in cancer invasion. However, the mechanisms for this association and its causal role in invasion are uncertain. In an effort to identify potential mechanisms for regulating Akt subcellular localization, we analyzed the Akt gene sequences and identified a highly conserved leucine-rich potential nuclear export sequence (NES). Initial experiments demonstrated that leptomycin B induced nuclear Akt1 localization. Transient expression experiments demonstrated that, in comparison to wild-type Akt1, NES-mutated (AKT/NES) Akt1 has reduced interactions with CRM-1 and persistent nuclear localization. Subsequent stable transfection experiments in Akt1-/- fibroblasts confirmed that expression of AKT/NES resulted in persistent nuclear localization and activation1. Finally, stable expression of AKT/NES in Akt1-/- fibroblasts was sufficient to enhance cell migration in vitro. Thus, Akt1 contains a functional NES and mutation of the NES results in nuclear-predominant Akt1 activation that is sufficient to induce migration.

Genetic classification of benign and malignant thyroid follicular neoplasia based on a three-gene combination.

Thyroid carcinoma is a common endocrine cancer with a favorable prognosis if subjected to timely treatment. However, the clinical identification of follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) among patients with benign thyroid nodules is still a challenge. Preoperative fine needle aspiration-based cytology cannot always differentiate follicular carcinomas from benign follicular neoplasias. Because current methods fail to improve preoperative diagnosis of thyroid nodules, new molecular-based diagnoses should be explored. We conducted a microarray-based study to reveal the genetic profiles unique to FTC and follicular adenomas (FAs), to identify the most parsimonious number of genes that could accurately differentiate between benign and malignant follicular thyroid neoplasia. We confirmed our data by quantitative RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry in two independent validation sets with a total of 114 samples. We were able to identify three genes, cyclin D2 (CCND2), protein convertase 2 (PCSK2), and prostate differentiation factor (PLAB), that allow the accurate molecular classification of FTC and FA. Two independent validation sets revealed that the combination of these three genes could differentiate FTC from FA with a sensitivity of 100%, specificity of 94.7%, and accuracy of 96.7%. In addition, our model allowed the identification of follicular variants of papillary thyroid carcinoma with an accuracy of 85.7%. Three-gene profiling of thyroid nodules can accurately predict the diagnosis of FTC and FA with high sensitivity and specificity, thus identifying promising targets for further investigation to ultimately improve preoperative diagnosis.

Thyrocytes express a functional toll-like receptor 3: overexpression can be induced by viral infection and reversed by phenylmethimazole and is associated with Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroiditis.

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) initiate an innate immune response. TLR3 on dendritic cells recognize double-stranded (ds) RNA and then signal increases in cytokines and recognition molecules important for immune cell interactions. In this report, we demonstrate TLR3 mRNA and protein are expressed on Fisher rat thyroid cell line-5 (FRTL-5) thyroid cells and are functional because incubating cells with polyinosine-polycytidylic acid causes 1) transcriptional activation of both the nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB)/Elk1 and interferon (IFN) regulatory factor-3/IFN-beta signal paths, 2) posttranscriptional activation of NF-kappaB and ERK1/2, and 3) increased IFN-beta mRNA. TLR3 can be overexpressed, along with dsRNA-dependent protein kinase, major histocompatibility complex-I or II, and IFN regulatory factor-1, by transfecting dsRNA into the cells, infection with Influenza A virus, or incubation with IFN-beta, but not by incubation with dsRNA or IFNgamma, or by dsDNA transfection. A methimazole (MMI) derivative, phenylmethimazole, to a significantly greater degree than MMI, prevents overexpression by inhibiting increased transcriptional activation of IRF-3 and of IFN-stimulated response elements, phosphorylation of signal transducers and activation of transcription (STAT-1), but not NF-kappaB activation. TLR3 can be functionally overexpressed in cultured human thyrocytes by dsRNA transfection or IFN-beta treatment. Immunohistochemical studies show that TLR3 protein is overexpressed in human thyrocytes surrounded by immune cells in 100% of patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis examined, but not in normal or Graves' thyrocytes. We conclude that functional TLR3 are present on thyrocytes; TLR3 downstream signals can be overexpressed by pathogen-related stimuli; overexpression can be reversed by phenylmethimazole to a significantly greater extent than MMI by inhibiting only the IFN regulatory factor-3/IFN-beta/signal transducers and activation of transcription arm of the TLR3 signal system; and TLR3 overexpression can induce an innate immune response in thyrocytes, which may be important in the pathogenesis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis and in the immune cell infiltrates.

Dystrophin glycoprotein complex dysfunction: a regulatory link between muscular dystrophy and cancer cachexia.

Cachexia contributes to nearly a third of all cancer deaths, yet the mechanisms underlying skeletal muscle wasting in this syndrome remain poorly defined. We report that tumor-induced alterations in the muscular dystrophy-associated dystrophin glycoprotein complex (DGC) represent a key early event in cachexia. Muscles from tumor-bearing mice exhibited membrane abnormalities accompanied by reduced levels of dystrophin and increased glycosylation on DGC proteins. Wasting was accentuated in tumor mdx mice lacking a DGC but spared in dystrophin transgenic mice that blocked induction of muscle E3 ubiquitin ligases. Furthermore, DGC deregulation correlated positively with cachexia in patients with gastrointestinal cancers. Based on these results, we propose that, similar to muscular dystrophy, DGC dysfunction plays a critical role in cancer-induced wasting.

Papillary and follicular variant of papillary carcinoma of the thyroid: Initial presentation and response to therapy.

INTRODUCTION: The 2 most common histologic variants of papillary carcinoma are pure papillary carcinoma (PTC) and follicular variant of papillary thyroid carcinoma (FVPTC). The purpose of this study is to compare the presentation and short-term response to therapy of these variants and to determine if FVPTC is a more aggressive form of thyroid cancer that warrants intensive therapy. METHODS: A retrospective chart review of patients treated for PTC and FVPTC between 1996 and 1999 was performed. Clinical variables were compared with the Wilcoxon Rank-Sum test or the Fischer's Exact Test. RESULTS: Of 160 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma included, 114 (71%) had PTC and 46 (29%) had FVPTC. Mean follow-up was 38.6 months. FVPTC presented with larger tumors (median 1.5 cm vs 1.0 cm, P = 0.007) and higher tumor stage than PTC. PTC patients were more likely to present with local invasion and to have local recurrence (9.65% vs 0% for both variables). There were no significant differences in patient age, gender, vascular invasion, lymph node or distant metastases, surgical treatment, radioactive iodine therapy, remission, or mortality. CONCLUSION: FVPTC presented with larger original tumor size and higher tumor stage but a lower local invasion rate and recurrence rate than patients with PTC despite similar therapies. These data suggest that FVPTC and PTC carry similar prognoses in early stages and that FVPTC may have a reduced predilection for local invasion. Although further studies with longer follow-up are required, these results do not suggest that FVPTC warrants more aggressive therapy than PTC.

Chronic expression of RET/PTC 3 enhances basal and insulin-stimulated PI3 kinase/AKT signaling and increases IRS-2 expression in FRTL-5 thyroid cells.

The RET/PTC3 oncogene is a genetically rearranged and constitutively activated tyrosine kinase receptor that is common in papillary thyroid cancer. Because RET/PTC3 is chronically overexpressed in these thyroid cancer cells, and RET/PTC3-expressing tumors are associated with overactivity of tyrosine kinase signaling pathways and a more aggressive clinical course, we questioned whether chronic RET/PTC3 expression enhances cellular responses to thyroid mitogens in vitro. We stably transfected FRTL-5 cells with the RET/PTC3 gene; transfected and control cell lines were cultured without insulin, TSH, or serum. Thymidine incorporation into DNA was enhanced in the RET/PTC3 cells, but transformation was not observed. RET/PTC3 cells demonstrated higher basal and insulin-stimulated levels of activated Akt, both of which were reduced by LY294002, a PI3 kinase inhibitor, but not PD98059, a MEK inhibitor. By contrast, mitogen activated protein kinase (MAP kinase) was only minimally activated in RET/PTC3 cells before and after stimulation. Consistent with preferential activation of PI3 kinase, increased levels of total and phosphorylated IRS2 protein, relative activation of PDK-1, and enhanced IRS2-p85 interactions were identified in RET/PTC3-expressing cells. RET/PTC3 cells were also sensitized to insulin-induced thymidine incorporation; this effect was blocked by PI3 kinase (LY294002) rather than MEK 1/2 (PD98059) inhibitors. In summary, we have demonstrated that RET/PTC3 expression enhances basal and insulin-stimulated DNA synthesis through PI3 kinase, cooperatively activates Akt with insulin via PI3 kinase, and preferentially activates the Akt rather than MAP kinase pathway in FRTL-5 cells.

Diagnostic molecular markers in thyroid cancer.

The use of molecular assays to analyze clinical tissues in the diagnosis and management of thyroid cancer, similar to other tumors, will likely allow for more accurate characterization of the aggressiveness of individual tumors and may allow for the early diagnosis of recurrence. The application of these methods to thyroid nodules and nodal metastases is less encumbered by difficulties arising from amplification of transcripts in non-thyroid cells. For these tissues, these assays are likely to be used clinically in the near-future. New data arising from cDNA arrays identifying novel markers of malignancy or tumor aggressiveness make this a growing area of interest. The use of molecular assays in diagnosing distant metastases is more problematic due to issues with ectopic expression of either full length or splice variants of genes thought to be thyroid-specific. Assay quantitation is a complex problem owing to variability in the level of expression of "housekeeping" genes and the variety of phlebotomy and RT-PCR methods reported. Additional research in this area is clearly required before a recommendation can be given regarding clinically applicability of these tests.

17-Allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin activity against thyroid cancer cell lines correlates with heat shock protein 90 levels.

Heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is a molecular chaperone that stabilizes growth factor receptors and signaling molecules. Disruption of this action inhibits the MAPK and phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase cascades and can induce cancer cell death. The goal of this study was to determine whether thyroid cancer cells are sensitive to the cytotoxic effects of 17-allylamino-17-demethoxygeldanamycin (17-AAG), an Hsp90 inhibitor in clinical trials, and to determine predictors of this response. Papillary (NPA), follicular (WRO), and anaplastic (ARO) thyroid cancers were incubated with 17-AAG in vitro. Surprisingly, the ARO cells were most sensitive to the cytotoxic effects of this agent. Conversely, all cell lines displayed similar responses to specific blockers of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase and MAPK kinase (LY294002 and U0126, respectively). Western blot demonstrated that the NPA cells that were most resistant to 17AAG-induced cytotoxicity had the lowest levels of Hsp90 and were the only cells with persistent levels of Akt protein. Interestingly, even the WRO and ARO cell lines that were sensitive to 17-AAG-induced cell death did not undergo apoptosis. These data suggest that sensitivity of thyroid cancer cells to 17-AAG-induced cytotoxicity relates to Hsp90 levels rather than histological subtype and that thyroid cancer cells have a reduced apoptotic response to 17-AAG.

Thyroid follicular adenomas may display features of follicular carcinoma and follicular variant of papillary carcinoma.

Thyroid follicular adenomas (FA) are encapsulated tumors lacking vascular, capsular or lymphatic invasion and the typical nuclear features of papillary carcinoma (PC). However, some FA demonstrate nuclear atypia reminiscent of either follicular carcinomas (FC) or follicular variant of papillary carcinomas (FVPC), suggesting they may represent precursors of malignant transformation. We hypothesized that an objective evaluation of nuclear chromatin patterns could be used to define atypical follicular tumors (AFT) that are likely to be premalignant. To test this hypothesis, we used a computer-aided image analysis system to define the chromatin pattern of nuclei from thyroid tumors. To validate the system, we analyzed 3000 nuclei from 10 FA, 10 FC, and 10 FVPC samples and accurately distinguished between these classes of tumors. Then, we analyzed nine AFT and, in parallel, we analyzed the tumors for activating mutations of N2-RAS and over-expression of RET. The predominant chromatin pattern of AFT was of FA type in two cases, FC type in two cases, and PC type in three cases. One case contained similar numbers of FC and PC nuclei and one was comprised of a mixture of the three nuclear types. Neither RAS mutation nor RET overexpression were detected in FA. N2-RAS mutations were found in 33% of AFT, 20% of FC and 20% of FVPC without correlation with chromatin pattern. Over-expression of RET was detected in 45% of AFT, 20% of FC and 50% of FVPC and was correlated with PC nuclei. These results show that AFT are a heterogeneous group of tumors, containing genuine benign tumors and tumors that share morphological and molecular features with follicular and papillary carcinomas that might be precursors of both types of thyroid carcinomas.
