    • We have sequenced the genomes of 110 small cell lung cancers (SCLC), one of the deadliest human cancers. In nearly all the tumours analysed we found bi-allelic inactivation of TP53 and RB1, sometimes by complex genomic rearrangements. Two tumours with wild-type RB1 had evidence of chromothripsis leading to overexpression of cyclin D1 (encoded by the CCND1 gene), revealing an alternative mechanism of Rb1 deregulation. Thus, loss of the tumour suppressors TP53 and RB1 is obligatory in SCLC. We discovered somatic genomic rearrangements of TP73 that create an oncogenic version of this gene, TP73Dex2/3. In rare cases, SCLC tumours exhibited kinase gene mutations, providing a possible therapeutic opportunity for individual patients. Finally, we observed inactivating mutations in NOTCH family genes in 25% of human SCLC. Accordingly, activation of Notch signalling in a pre-clinical SCLC mouse model strikingly reduced the number of tumours and extended the survival of the mutant mice. Furthermore, neuroendocrine gene expression was abrogated by Notch activity in SCLC cells. This first comprehensive study of somatic genome alterations in SCLC uncovers several key biological processes and identifies candidate therapeutic targets in this highly lethal form of cancer.

  • Immunoglobulin gene segment usage, location and immunogenicity in mutated and unmutated chronic lymphocytic leukaemia
  • 2005
  • Ingår i: British Journal of Haematology. - : Blackwell Publishing. - 0007-1048 .- 1365-2141. ; 129:4, s. 499-510
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The mutational status of the variable region of the immunoglobulin heavy chain gene (IgV(H)) is an important prognostic marker in B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL), with mutated patients having improved outcome. To examine the impact of mutational status on V(H), D(H), and J(H) gene segment location and immunogenicity, we analysed 375 IgH sequences from 356 patients with B-CLL. Although V(H) and D(H) gene usage was different in mutated compared to unmutated patients, there was no impact of gene location on frequency of use or clinical outcome. Surprisingly, somatic mutations did not increase the immunogenicity of the Ig, as assessed by predicted binding affinity of Ig-derived peptides to major histocompatibility Class I and Class II molecules. Even excluding patients using V(H)1-69, cases using the V(H)1 gene family had a poor outcome. Both mutated and unmutated CLL patients demonstrated evidence of antigen selection. The worst outcome was seen in the subset of 14 unmutated patients with similar HCDR3 amino acid sequence using V(H)1-69, D(H)3-3 and J(H)6, suggesting an antigen-driven process modulating the clinical course.
