Abstract

The genetic landscape and molecular features of collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) of the kidney remain largely unknown. Herein, we performed whole exome sequencing (WES) and transcriptome sequencing (RNASeq) on 7 CDC samples (CDC1 -7). Among the 7 samples, 4 samples with matched non-tumor tissue were used for copy number analysis by SNP array data. No recurrent somatic SNVs were observed except for MLL, which was found to be mutated (p.V297I and p.F407C) in 2 samples. We identified somatic SNVs in 14 other cancer census genes including: ATM, CREBBP, PRDM1, CBFB, FBXW7, IKZF1, KDR, KRAS, NACA, NF2, NUP98, SS18, TP53, and ZNF521. SNP array data identified a CDKN2A homozygous deletion in 3 samples and SNV analysis showed a non-sense mutation of the CDKN2A gene with unknown somatic status. To estimate the recurrent rate of CDKN2A abnormalities, we performed FISH screening of additional samples and confirmed the frequent loss (62.5%) of CDKN2A expression. Since cisplatin based therapy is the common treatment option for CDC, we investigated the expression of solute carrier (SLC) family transporters and found 45% alteration. In addition, SLC7A11 (cystine transporter, xCT), a cisplatin resistance associated gene, was found to be overexpressed in 4 out of 5 (80%) cases of CDC tumors tested, as compared to matched non-tumor tissue. In summary, our study provides a comprehensive genomic analysis of CDC and identifies potential pathways suitable for targeted therapies.

Keywords: CDKN2A; collecting duct carcinoma; solute carrier family genes.

a. A representative Circos plot of CDC samples. The plot shows (from outer to inner circle) genes with somatic amino acid changes (red genes are in Cancer Census Genes), chromosomes, allele frequencies of mutations, copy number aberration (orange for gain and blue for loss), and LOH (red means LOH and grey means no LOH). b. Somatic CNV in 7 CDC samples and summary of CNVs in CDC, ccRCC, chRCC, and pRCC. Red color represents copy number gain and blue copy number loss. c. Somatic SNVs in 4 CDC samples and significantly mutated genes in ccRCC and chRCC. Green means missense mutation, red means non-sense, frameshift mutations, and orange means both. TCGA data of ccRCC and pRCC, including clinical information, somatic mutations, SNP array CNV calls, and normalized RNASeqV2, were downloaded from the TCGA data portal. Alternation status of CDKN2A was determined by somatic mutation calls and CNV segmentation results. If a segment overlapped with CDKN2A and had a logR ratio less than −0.4, CDKN2A was considered a loss in this sample. For gene expression data, the RSEM quantified and normalized data were first log2 transferred, followed by significant test. All statistical tests were performed using R statistical program followed by a significance test.

To determine human CDKN2A interacting proteins, STRING10 (http://string-db.org/) database which provides known and predicted protein interactions was used. Interaction views of confidence a., evidence b. and actions c. are shown using parameters of highest confidence (0.900) and no more than 5 interactions. Protein interaction data show that CDKN2A interacts with CDK4 and TP53 (listed top 5), E2F1 and EZH2, (listed top 20, data not shown), which were found overexpressed by RNASeq analysis (Figure 3d), suggesting the functional significance of CDKN2A deletion in CDC tumors.
