Characterization of large-scale genomic differences in the first complete human genome. Genome Biol 2023; 24:157. [PMID: 37403156 PMCID: PMC10320979 DOI: 10.1186/s13059-023-02995-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/14/2022] [Accepted: 06/23/2023] [Indexed: 07/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The first telomere-to-telomere (T2T) human genome assembly (T2T-CHM13) release is a milestone in human genomics. The T2T-CHM13 genome assembly extends our understanding of telomeres, centromeres, segmental duplication, and other complex regions. The current human genome reference (GRCh38) has been widely used in various human genomic studies. However, the large-scale genomic differences between these two important genome assemblies are not characterized in detail yet. RESULTS Here, in addition to the previously reported "non-syntenic" regions, we find 67 additional large-scale discrepant regions and precisely categorize them into four structural types with a newly developed website tool called SynPlotter. The discrepant regions (~ 21.6 Mbp) excluding telomeric and centromeric regions are highly structurally polymorphic in humans, where the deletions or duplications are likely associated with various human diseases, such as immune and neurodevelopmental disorders. The analyses of a newly identified discrepant region-the KLRC gene cluster-show that the depletion of KLRC2 by a single-deletion event is associated with natural killer cell differentiation in ~ 20% of humans. Meanwhile, the rapid amino acid replacements observed within KLRC3 are probably a result of natural selection in primate evolution. CONCLUSION Our study provides a foundation for understanding the large-scale structural genomic differences between the two crucial human reference genomes, and is thereby important for future human genomics studies.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) is a RING domain ubiquitin ligase that plays an important role in nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling by regulating activation of the TAK1 and IKK complexes. However, the molecular mechanisms that regulate TRAF6 E3 activity remain unclear. Here, we found that ZDHHC11, a member of the DHHC palmitoyl transferase family, functions as a positive modulator in NF-κB signaling. ZDHHC11 overexpression activated NF-κB, whereas ZDHHC11 deficiency impaired NF-κB activity stimulated by IL-1β, LPS, and DNA virus infection. Furthermore, Zdhhc11 knockout mice had a lower level of serum IL6 upon treatment with LPS and D-galactosamine or HSV-1 infection than control mice. Mechanistically, ZDHHC11 interacted with TRAF6 and then enhanced TRAF6 oligomerization, which increased E3 activity of TRAF6 for synthesis of K63-linked ubiquitination chains. Collectively, our study indicates that ZDHHC11 positively regulates NF-κB signaling by promoting TRAF6 oligomerization and ligase activity, subsequently activating TAK1 and IKK complexes.

Abstract
Gastric carcinoma (GC) is a highly malignant and heterogeneous tumour. Long non-coding RNA CES4 is down-regulated in GC. However, whether CES4 can participate in GC remains unclear; we have carried out research on this topic. GC cells (HGC-27 and MKN-7) were treated with anti-tumour drugs: apatinib combined with Keytruda. Cell viability and apoptosis were detected by CCK-8 assay and flow cytometry. Gene and protein expression were examined by quantitative real-time PCR and western blot. Luciferase reporter assay was performed to verify the relationship among CES4, miR-616-5p and dual-specificity phosphatase-2 (DUSP2). CES4 was highly expressed in the apatinib combined with Keytruda-treated HGC-27 and MKN-7 cells. Apatinib combined with Keytruda treatment repressed cell viability and promoted apoptosis of HGC-27 and MKN-7 cells, which was abrogated by CES4 knockdown. Furthermore, CES4 promoted DUSP2 expression by sponging miR-616-5p in HGC-27 and MKN-7 cells. CES4 knockdown promoted cell viability and inhibited apoptosis of drug-treated HGC-27 and MKN-7 cells by regulating miR-616-5p/DUSP2 axis. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that apatinib combined with Keytruda treatment induces apoptosis of GC cells through CES4/miR-616-5p/DUSP2 axis. Thus, this work provides the experimental basis for the combination of apatinib and Keytruda as a treatment for GC.

Abstract
BACKGORUND Hepatoblastoma is the most common primary liver malignancy in young children. METHODS To identify predictors of the clinical outcomes of hepatoblastoma, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 45 children with hepatoblastoma in the National Taiwan University Hospital from 1998 to 2018. All of the children were classified as high risk according to the pretreatment extent of disease (PRETEXT) staging system. The patients' clinical data (sex, age at diagnosis, PRETEXT status, presence of metastasis or tumor rupture, tumor pathologic type, and clinical outcomes) were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 45 children with high-risk hepatoblastoma were diagnosed at an average age of 3.2 years. The survival analysis showed that the event-free survival duration was significantly longer in patients aged ≤1.25 years at diagnosis than those >1.25 years (hazard ratio = 2.86, p = 0.036). The absence of initial tumor rupture was associated with longer event-free survival (hazard ratio = 2.74, p = 0.039). Diagnosis at age >1.25 years was correlated with the presence of multifocal liver tumors (p = 0.0002) and tumor rupture at diagnosis (p = 0.02). There was no significant difference in event-free survival between the groups classified as intermediate versus high risk according to the Children's Hepatic tumors International Collaboration hepatoblastoma stratification system (p = 0.13). CONCLUSIONS Diagnosis at ≤ 1.25 years of age and absence of initial tumor rupture were predictive of a good clinical prognosis in Taiwanese children with hepatoblastoma.

Abstract
Protein S-palmitoylation is a reversible post-translational modification that alters the localization, stability, and function of hundreds of proteins in the cell. S-palmitoylation is essential for the function of both oncogenes (e.g., NRAS and EGFR) and tumor suppressors (e.g., SCRIB, melanocortin 1 receptor). In mammalian cells, the thioesterification of palmitate to internal cysteine residues is catalyzed by 23 Asp-His-His-Cys (DHHC)-family palmitoyl S-acyltransferases while the removal of palmitate is catalyzed by serine hydrolases, including acyl-protein thioesterases (APTs). These enzymes modulate the function of important oncogenes and tumor suppressors and often display altered expression patterns in cancer. Targeting S-palmitoylation or the enzymes responsible for palmitoylation dynamics may therefore represent a candidate therapeutic strategy for certain cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hepatoblastoma, a leading primary hepatic malignant tumor in children, is originated from primitive hepatic stem cells. We aimed to elucidate the relationships between the histological distribution of β-catenin and hepatic stem cell markers with the clinical outcomes of hepatoblastoma. METHODS Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect β-catenin and hepatic stem cell markers expression in 31 hepatoblastoma tumors. We analyzed the relationship between the stem cell markers and the clinical course of hepatoblastoma. RESULTS Thirty-one hepatoblastoma patients were diagnosed at a mean age of 2.58 ± 3.78 years, and 7 (22.58%) died. A lack of anticipated decrease in alpha-fetal protein levels after neoadjuvant chemotherapy indicated a higher mortality rate. Nuclear β-catenin expression was significantly associated with membranous epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) expression in hepatoblastoma tumor specimens. The co-expression of nuclear β-catenin and membranous EpCAM together with an age at diagnosis ≤1.25 years were predictive of an alpha-fetoprotein level < 1200 ng/mL after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (P < 0.05). An alpha-fetoprotein level < 1200 ng/mL after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and age at hepatoblastoma diagnosis ≤1.25 years are both predictors of better overall and native liver survival in hepatoblastoma patients. CONCLUSIONS Presence of membranous EpCAM with nuclear β-catenin and younger diagnostic age of hepatoblastoma are predictive of serum alpha-fetoprotein levels drop after chemotherapy. Younger diagnostic age and lower alpha-fetoprotein levels after neoadjuvant chemotherapy and are predictive of better overall and native liver survival in hepatoblastoma patients.

Circumventing intratumoral heterogeneity to identify potential therapeutic targets in hepatocellular carcinoma. J Hepatol 2017; 67:293-301.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Identifying target genetic mutations in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) for therapy is made challenging by intratumoral heterogeneity. Circulating cell-free DNAs (cfDNA) may contain a more complete mutational spectrum compared to a single tumor sample. This study aimed to identify the most efficient strategy to identify all the mutations within heterogeneous HCCs. METHODS Whole exome sequencing (WES) and targeted deep sequencing (TDS) were carried out in 32 multi-regional tumor samples from five patients. Matched preoperative cfDNAs were sequenced accordingly. Intratumoral heterogeneity was measured using the average percentage of non-ubiquitous mutations (present in parts of tumor regions). Profiling efficiencies of single tumor specimen and cfDNA were compared. The strategy with the highest performance was used to screen for actionable mutations. RESULTS Variable levels of heterogeneity with branched and parallel evolution patterns were observed. The heterogeneity decreased at higher sequencing depth of TDS compared to measurements by WES (28.1% vs. 34.9%, p<0.01) but remained unchanged when additional samples were analyzed. TDS of single tumor specimen identified an average of 70% of the total mutations from multi-regional tissues. Although genome profiling efficiency of cfDNA increased with sequencing depth, an average of 47.2% total mutations were identified using TDS, suggesting that tissue samples outperformed it. TDS of single tumor specimen in 66 patients and cfDNAs in four unresectable HCCs showed that 38.6% (26/66 and 1/4) of patients carried mutations that were potential therapeutic targets. CONCLUSIONS TDS of single tumor specimen could identify actionable mutations targets for therapy in HCC. cfDNA may serve as secondary alternative in profiling HCC genome. LAY SUMMARY Targeted deep sequencing of single tumor specimen is a more efficient method to identify mutations in hepatocellular carcinoma made from mixed subtypes compared to circulating cell-free DNA in blood. cfDNA may serve as secondary alternative in profiling HCC genome. Identifying mutations may help clinicians choose targeted therapy for better individual treatments.
