Here, we investigated how the St Gallen breast molecular subtypes displayed distinct histone H3 profiles.
PATIENTS & METHODS: 192 breast tumors divided into five St Gallen molecular subtypes (luminal A, luminal B HER2-, luminal B HER2+, HER2+ and basal-like) were evaluated for their histone H3 modifications on gene promoters.
ANOVA analysis allowed to identify specific H3 signatures according to three groups of genes: hormonal receptor genes (ERS1, ERS2, PGR), genes modifying histones (EZH2, P300, SRC3) and tumor suppressor gene (BRCA1). A similar profile inside high-risk cancers (luminal B [HER2+], HER2+ and basal-like) compared with low-risk cancers including luminal A and luminal B (HER2-) were demonstrated.
The H3 modifications might contribute to clarify the differences between breast cancer subtypes.
在此,我们研究了圣加仑乳腺癌分子亚型如何呈现出不同的组蛋白H3谱。
对192例分为五种圣加仑分子亚型(腔面A型、腔面B型HER2阴性、腔面B型HER2阳性、HER2阳性和基底样型)的乳腺肿瘤进行基因启动子上组蛋白H3修饰的评估。
方差分析能够根据三组基因确定特定的H3特征:激素受体基因(雌激素受体1、雌激素受体2、孕激素受体)、修饰组蛋白的基因(EZH2、P300、SRC3)和肿瘤抑制基因(BRCA1)。与包括腔面A型和腔面B型HER2阴性在内的低风险癌症相比,高风险癌症(腔面B型HER2阳性、HER2阳性和基底样型)呈现出相似的特征。
H3修饰可能有助于阐明乳腺癌亚型之间的差异。
