insulin like growth factor and SLC12A7 dysregulation a novel signaling hallmark of non functional adrenocortical carcinoma
Journal of The American College of Surgeons, 2019Co-Authors: Taylor C. Brown, Reju Korah, Christofer C Juhlin, Adam Stenman, Norman G Nicolson, Courtney E Gibson, Glenda G Callender, Tobias CarlingAbstract:Background Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) dysregulation and gene copy number variations (CNV) are hallmarks of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC). The contribution of IGF CNVs in adrenal carcinogenesis has not been studied previously. In addition, studies demonstrating an association between SLC12A7 gene amplifications and enhanced metastatic behavior in ACC, as well as reported IGF-SLC12A7 signaling interactions in other cancers, suggest a potential IGF-SLC12A7 signaling circuitry in ACC. Here we investigate the potential complicity of IGF-SLC12A7 signaling in ACC. Study Design Insulin-like growth factor CNVs were determined by whole-exome sequencing analysis in an exploratory cohort of ACC. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction methods determined IGF1 and IGF2 expression levels and were evaluated for correlation with SLC12A7 expression and tumor characteristics. Insulin-like growth factor CNVs and expression patterns were compared with The Cancer Genome Atlas. In vitro studies determined the relationship of IGF and SLC12A7 co-expression in 2 ACC cell lines, SW-13 and NCI-H295R. Immunohistochemistry assessed IGF1 receptor (IGF1R) activation. Results The IGF1 gene was amplified in 9 of 19 ACC samples, similar to findings in The Cancer Genome Atlas database. The IGF1 overexpression was observed in 5 samples and was associated with SLC12A7 overexpression and non-functional, early-stage tumors (p Conclusions These findings indicate that IGF1 overexpression, caused in part by gene amplifications, is correlated with SLC12A7 overexpression in non-functional, early-stage ACCs, suggesting a potentially targeted IGF1-SLC12A7 therapeutic opportunity for these tumors.

SLC12A7 alters adrenocortical carcinoma cell adhesion properties to promote an aggressive invasive behavior
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2018Co-Authors: Taylor C. Brown, Timothy D. Murtha, Jill C. Rubinstein, Reju Korah, Tobias CarlingAbstract:Background Altered expression of Solute Carrier Family 12 Member 7 (SLC12A7) is implicated to promote malignant behavior in multiple cancer types through an incompletely understood mechanism. Recent studies have shown recurrent gene amplifications and overexpression of SLC12A7 in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC). The potential mechanistic effect(s) of SLC12A7 amplifications in portending an aggressive behavior in ACC has not been previously studied and is investigated here using two established ACC cell lines, SW-13 and NCI-H295R. Methods SW-13 cells, which express negligible amounts of SLC12A7, were enforced to express SLC12A7 constitutively, while RNAi gene silencing was performed in NCI-H295R cells, which have robust endogenous expression of SLC12A7. In vitro studies tested the outcomes of experimental alterations in SLC12A7 expression on malignant characteristics, including cell viability, growth, colony formation potential, motility, invasive capacity, adhesion and detachment kinetics, and cell membrane organization. Further, potential alterations in transcription regulation downstream to induced SLC12A7 overexpression was explored using targeted transcription factor expression arrays. Results Enforced SLC12A7 overexpression in SW-13 cells robustly promoted motility and invasive characteristics ( p

dna copy amplification and overexpression of SLC12A7 in adrenocortical carcinoma
Surgery, 2016Co-Authors: Taylor C. Brown, Jill C. Rubinstein, Reju Korah, Christofer C Juhlin, James M Healy, Adam Stenman, Tobias CarlingAbstract:Background Overexpression of Solute carrier family 12 member 7 (SLC12A7) promotes tumor aggressiveness in various cancers. Previous studies have identified the 5p15.33 region, containing the SLC12A7 locus, as being amplified frequently in adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC). Copy number amplifications (CNAs) may alter gene expression levels and occur frequently in ACC; however, SLC12A7 gene amplifications or expression levels have not been studied in ACC. Methods Fifty-five cases of clinically well-characterized ACCs were recruited for this study. Whole-exome sequencing was used to predict CNAs in 19 samples. CNA analysis was performed on an expanded cohort of 26 samples with the use of TaqMan Copy Number Assays. SLC12A7 mRNA expression was analyzed in 32 samples with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and protein expression was assessed by immunohistochemistry. SLC12A7 CNAs and expression patterns were evaluated for correlation with patient and tumor characteristics. Results Whole-exome sequencing and TaqMan Copy Number Assays demonstrated SLC12A7 amplifications in 68.4% and 65.4% of ACCs tested, respectively. Furthermore, SLC12A7 copy gains were associated with increased gene expression ( P P P Conclusion SLC12A7 gene amplification and overexpression occurs frequently in ACCs and may represent a novel molecular event associated with ACC.
