Definitions
- This invention concerns the identification of a tumor suppressor gene designated PTEN and its use in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer.
- Cancer cells have multiple genomic alterations not found in normal host DNA. These include point mutations, insertions, deletion, chromosomal rearrangements, amplifications (which increase gene copy number) , as well as a variety of karyotypic abnormalities (such as aneuploidy, supernumary chromosomes and losses of parental chromosomes) . Specific genomic changes are known to alter two main categories of cancer-related proteins: oncoproteins, which become activated or over- expressed; and tumor suppressor proteins, which become inactivated or diminished in expression. Loss of genetic information in cancer cells, a particular form of genomic alteration which is relevant here, is often characterized by loss of heterozygosity (LOH) , in which alleles from one parent are found missing, and homozygous deletion
- LHO heterozygosity
- HD tumor suppressor genes
- the presence of a particular genetic lesion can be used to detect the presence of cancer cells, useful when the physician wants to monitor the patient's progress and response to therapy.
- such hallmarks could be employed to screen for the presence of cancer cells in otherwise asymptomatic patients.
- the example of the c-abl/bcr fusion resulting from the chromosome 9/21 rearrangement illustrates both of the first two uses. The presence of this alteration is used to diagnose chronic myelogenous leukemia, and to monitor recurrence .
- oncoproteins which are found altered in cancers can be the target of therapeutic discovery and intervention.
- Several clinical trials are now underway to test drugs that inhibit RAS function, ERB2 function, and CDK4 function.
- Many drug discovery programs are targeting the tyrosine kinase type oncogene .
- tumor suppressor proteins which are mutated in cancers can be the target of therapeutic discovery and intervention.
- gene therapy experiments in animal models are underway to test the efficacy of restoring a tumor suppressor gene (p53) to cancer cells that have mutated p53.
- the tumor suppressor protein is an extracellular protein, it may be replaceable therapeutically .
- one may induce the expression of a tumor suppressor gene by chemical agents, or restore function to a mutated protein, or elevate activity of an attenuated protein, or activate another gene product of similar function.
- altered oncoproteins or tumor suppressor proteins may be the target for immunotherapy and vaccination.
- Detection of mutated genes is desirable, clinically, for the diagnosis of the mutation in patients, and, for research purposes, for the verification that a candidate oncogene or tumor suppressor gene is such.
- a variety of techniques have been employed to detect mutation. These fall into two categories: the analysis of the gene itself and the analysis of the gene product .
- the gene of a cancer cell may be sequenced and compared to the normal sequence. This can proceed by directly cloning, or producing by PCR, the subject gene from the cancer cell, and analyzing either the cDNA corresponding to the expressed mRNA or the genomic sequences in which the expressed sequences are embedded.
- the presence of specific mutations within specific genes can be determined by oligonucleotide hybridization. Most recently, this has been accomplished by "chip" technology, wherein the subject oligonucleotide is placed on a solid surface, and then contacted with single- stranded DNA derived from the cancer cell. The thermal stability of the duplex formed is measured and used to detect the presence of mutation.
- chip technology is that it allows for miniaturization and multiple queries in a high throughput format.
- the protein When antibodies directed to the gene product are available, the protein can be examined directly from the cancer cell. Its level of expression may be assayed by immuno-cytochemistry, or, following its purification from the cancer cell, its altered electrophoretic mobility, or even its enzymatic function may be assessed. Antibodies to the subject gene-product can be obtained once the gene sequence is known by methods standard in the art.

- PTEN tumor suppressor gene
- LOH heterozygosity
- RDA representational difference analysis
- BAC bacterial artificial chromosome
- the phosphatase domain of PTEN contained the critical (I/V) -H-C-X-A-G-X-X-R- (S/T) -G motif found in tyrosine and dual -specificity phosphatases ( 15) .
- the phosphatase domain exon mapped within all four BACs and was deleted in all of the homozygously deleted samples with the exception of DBTRG-05MG, thus placing this exon within the region of homozygous deletion near JL25 and AFMA086WG9 (Fig 2B) .
- the phosphatase domain of encoded by PTEN is most related in sequence to those of CDC14, Phosphatase of Regenerating Liver (PRL-1) , and Baculovirus PTP (BVP) (Fig. 4B) .
- CDC14 and BVP are dual-specificity phosphatases that remove phosphate groups from tyrosine as well as serine and threonine ( 16) . These phosphatases can be distinguished from the more well characterized VHl-like enzymes by their sequence differences outside of the core conserved domain.
- PRL-1 and CDC14 are involved in cell growth, and CDC14 appears to play a role in the initiation of DNA replication ( 17) . In contrast to PTEN, these phosphatases do not have extensive homology to tensin and auxilin.
- PTEN is also homologous to the protein tyrosine phosphatase domains of three ORFs
- PTEN is a tumor suppressor gene
- the PTEN allele retained in tumor cells with LOH should contain inactivating mutations.
- Two truncating mutations in PTEN were identified in the breast samples (Table 1) .
- MDA-MB-468 cells had a deletion of 44 bp at codon 70, which resulted in a frameshift on the amino terminal side of the tyrosine phosphatase domain.
- DBTRG-05MG cells had an in- frame deletion of 204 bp caused by the genomically deleted exon ET-1 (Fig. 5B)
- U373MG had a 2-bp insertion at codon 242
- U87MG had a frameshift at codon 54.
- Both of the prostate tumor cell lines had PTEN mutations: LNCaP cells had a 2-bp deletion at codon 6, leading to a frameshift (Fig. 5C)
- DBTRG-05MG*t Glioblastoma 274 - 342 delete 204 bp in-frame deletion
- DBTRG-05MG has a genomic deletion of 180 bp within exon ET-1, which includes nearly the entire exon and the splice donor site. Because of the genomic deletion in this cell line, th transcript contains an in-frame deletion of codons 274-342. tTumor cell lines. tPrimary tumors. SMutations are indicated in the sense orientation. All mutations in primary tumors were not found in matched blood DNA.
- P-TEN tumor suppressor as an enzyme that removes phosphate from tyrosines is intriguing, given that many oncoproteins function in the reverse process - to phophorylate tyrosines (22) .
- P-TEN and tyrosine kinase oncoproteins may share substrates and the tight control of these substrates through phophorylation is likely to regulate a critical pathway that is altered late in tumor development .
- the homology of P-TEN to tensin is also of interest. Tensin appears to bind actin filaments at focal adhesions - complexesy that contain intergrins, focal adhesion kinase (FAK) , Src, and growth factor receptors (23) .
- FAK focal adhesion kinase
- Integrins have been implicated in cell growth regulation (24) and in tumor cell invasion, angiogenesis, and metatasis (25) , so it is conceivable that PTEN regulates one or more of thes processes. Finally, the identification of P-TEN as a likely tumor suppressor raises the possibility that this protein and its substrates will be useful targets for the development of new therapeutics for cancer.
- RDA was performed as described in Lisitsyn et al . , Proc Natl Acad Sci 92, 151 (1995) . Diploid and aneuploid nuclei from primary breast cancer cells were separated with a fluorescence activated cell sorter. DNA (100 ng) from each fraction was digested with Bgl II and used to prepare amplicons for 12 separate RDA reactions.
- Probe CY17 was isolated from one of these reactions, was 236 bp long and was present in the diploid but not in the aneuploid amplicon from which it was derived. Hybridization of CY17 to normal genomic DNA samples digested with Bgl II revealed no evidence of restriction length polymorphism.
- Amplification conditions were 95 °C for 30 s, 56 °C for 1 min, 70 °C for 1 min, for 35 cycles.
- CEPH B library Research Genetics, Huntsville
- the forward PCR primer was labeled with ( 32 P) ATP and used to amplify 40 ng of genomic DNA (11) .
- the samples were then subjected to electrophoresis and autoradiography .
- the samples included 25 human breast tumor cell lines available from American Type Culture Collection (ATCC) as well as 40 human primary breast tumors xenografted into nude mice.

- BAC DNA was prepared using the Nucleobond kit (Nest Group, Southboro, MA) . BACs were digested with Not I and subjected to electrophoresis on a field inversion apparatus. BACs A, B, C, and D were 240, 200, 175, and 120 kb, respectively (see Fig. 2B) . A Not I site was present 20 kb from one end of BAC D. Twelve new STS sites were generated by sequencing both ends of BACs B, C, and D, and shotgun cloning Eco RI fragments. Plasmid DNA was prepared from the cloned Eco RI fragments. DNA was cycle sequenced with appropriate primers using a 33 P ddNTP cycle sequencing kit (Amersham, Cleveland) . STS primers were designed and the relative location of the STSs determined by testing for their presence in the BAC contig. Primer sequences are available upon request .
- the glioblastoma lines included U105, U118MG, A172, DBTRG-05MG, U373MG, T-98G, U-87MG, and U138MG and 34 glioblastoma xenografts.
- the prostate cancer cell lines tested were DU145, LNCaP, NCI H660, and PC-3. Microsatellite analysis was performed on the prostate lines and each was found to be unique. With the exception of U105, all lines were obtained from the ATCC.
- DNA (10 (g) was digested with Eco RI , resolved on a 1% agarose gel and transferred to nylon. The JL25 3-kb probe and the 2-kb contol probe were randomly labelled and hybridized to the blot consecutively.
- BACs C and D were digested with Bam HI, Bgl II, or both enzymes and ligated into the trapping vector pSPL3. Libraries were transfected into C0S1 cells with lipofectamine and poly(-A) + RNA was extracted after 2 days .
- An exon trapping kit was purchased from GIBCO/BRL.
- the map panel #2 monochromosome panel was purchased from the National Institute of General Medical Science (NIGMS) Human Mutant Genetic Cell Repository.
- Randomly primed cDNA was prepared from each of the cell lines studied. Reverse transcription-PCR reactions were performed with 2 overlapping primer pairs to screen the entire ORF . Primer pairs were as follows :
- RT-PCR products that produced truncated proteins were directly cycle sequenced (20 ng each) to identify potential mutations. All mutations were verified by repeating the RT-PCR and mutation analysis. cDNA primer sequences are available from upon request . 21. STSs Not-5', PTPD and ET-1 were amplified from primary glioblastoma and blood DNA and the exonic regions sequenced.
- Cowden disease is an autosomal dominant cancer predisposition syndrome associated with an elevated risk for tumours of the breast, thyroid, and skin (1,2) .
- Lhermitte-Duclos disease cosegregates with a subset of CD families and is associated with macrocephaly, ataxia, and dysplastic cerebellar gangliocytomatosis (3,4) .
- the common feature of these diseases is a predisposition to hamartomas, benign tumours containing differentiated but disorganised cells indigenous to the tissue of origin. Linkage analysis has determined that a single locus within chromosome 10q23 is likely to be responsible for both of these diseases (5) .
- a candidate tumour suppressor gene ( PTEN) within this region is mutated in sporadic brain, breast, and prostate cancer
- Another group has independently isolated the same gene, which they call MMAC1 , and also found somatic mutations throughout the gene in advanced sporadic cancers (7) .
- Cowden disease [MIM 158350]
- MIM 158350 Cowden disease
- breast cancers develop in approximately 30-50% of affected women and thyroid cancers are found in 10% of affected individuals (9,10) .
- One-third of CD patients have macrocephaly; and brain tumours, especially meningiomas, are noted as well (9-11) .
- LDD LDD-CD (4,11)
- CD families and families with both CD and LDD were found to be linked to this region.
- the PTEN open reading frame contains a putative protein tyrosine phosphatase domain as well as a region of homology to tensin, a protein that interacts with focal adhesions. Somatic frameshift and nonsense mutations were found throughout the gene in the tumours. In addition, two missense mutations were identified that are predicted to cause amino acid substitutions at codons 129 and 134 within the phosphatase domain. Based on its location on 10q23 and the identification of mutations in sporadic breast and brain tumours, we decided to examine the potential role of PTEN in CD.
- exon 5 was amplified from an additional 28 unrelated individuals and subjected to restiction digestion analysis using the enzyme BsmFI .
- This restriction site is lost (GGGAC to GGAAC) in the presence of the missense alteration at codon 129 found in families 2053 and BH. All of these control samples yielded two digestion products, while heterozygous loss of the restriction site was evident in samples from affected members of families 2053 and BH (data not shown) .
- the mutations in families 2053, BH, C, and D fall within the putative tyrosine phosphatase domain of the gene and would be expected to disrupt its function (12) .
- the codon G129E missense mutations observed in familes 2053 and BH occurred within the signature sequence found in all protein tyrosine phosphatases and dual-specificity phosphatases (13) . This motif is present within the catalytic core of these enzymes.
- the glycine at codon 129 is typically conserved in protein tyrosine phosphatases but not in dual-specificity phosphatases, which have serine and threonine as their substrates.
- PTEN Because germline mutations of PTEN predispose to a breast and thyroid cancer syndrome, and somatic mutations are found in sporadic breast cancer, PTEN becomes an obvious candidate for non-CD breast cancer predisposition. Molecular epidemiologic studies of PTEN in apparently sporadic breast and thyroid cancer cases will be useful to determine if PTEN plays a role as a common low penetrance susceptibility gene. The results of these studies may have important consequences in altering the management of patients with such common cancers as those of the breast and the thyroid.
- CD cardinal phenotype of CD could hint at PTEN' s physiological function.
- Multiple hamartomas are the sine qua non of CD; these are disorganised masses composed of cells and tissues normally found in the organ of origin. Therefore, PTEN may act in normal tissues to guide the development of cellular interactions such that cells, tissues, and organs are properly formed with respect to one another.
- disruptive germline mutations in PTEN are associated with CD, one can postulate that heterozygous mutation, in combination with LOH of the wild type allele, could cause a proliferative and disorganisational tendency, leading to hamartoma formation. This cellular proliferation and disorganisation would be the background on which malignant transformation could occur due to somatic mutation of other tumour suppressor genes and oncogenes .
- Families 0014, 2053, BH, C, and D are classic CD families that meet the consensus operational diagnostic criteria of the International Cowden Consortium (5,10). Families 0014, 2053, C, and D have been described previously (9,10,14) .
- Family BH comprises two brothers, both of whom have multiple hamartomas of the skin, lung, kidney, follicular adenoma of the thyroid and hamarto atous polyps of the colon.
- Genotyping Fourteen dinucleotide repeat markers located on lOq encompassing the Cowden critical interval were used for fine structure typing of Cowden family 0014: D10S537, D10S580 , D10S219 , D10S573 , D10S215, D10S541 , D10S2177, D10S2281 , D10S1739, D10S1615, D10S1571 , D10S1442 , D10S1753 , D10S564 .
- Each forward primer was 5 'labelled with fluorescent dyes HEX or 6-FAM (Genosys Biotechnologies, Inc., The Woodlands, TX, USA). PCR and electrophoresis conditions as well as data analysis have been described previously (15) .
- Intronic primers were designed for amplifying six exons of the PTEN gene (Table 3) .
- Cycle sequencing was performed directly on PCR products using a nested sequencing primer and the 33 P- dideoxy-labelled terminators kit (Amersham, Cleveland, OH, USA) and the ABI Prism Dye Terminator Cycle Sequencing Ready Reaction Kit.
- the products of cycle sequencing were electrophoresed on standard 6% acrylamide gels or analysed on an ABI 373A or 377 automated DNA sequencer (Perkin-Elmer Corp, Norwalk, CT, USA) . All mutations were independently confirmed ' using both sequencing methods .
- Cowden disease gene marker studies and measurements of epidermal growth factor. Am. J. Hum . Genet . 38, 908-917 (1986) . 10. Starink, T.M. et al . The Cowden syndrome: a clinical and genetic study in 21 patients. Clnical Geneti cs . 29, 222-233 (1986) .
- 34 consecutive glioblastomas were studied in detail. Sequencing each of the nine exons amplified from tumor DNA revealed 11 mutations. Analysis of polymorphic markers within and surrounding the PTEN gene identified an additional four homozygous deletion mutations. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) was observed in 25 of 34 (74%) cases. All mutations occurred in the presence of LOH. PTEN was mutated in 44% (15/34) of all glioblastomas studied and 60% (15/25) of tumors with LOH on lOq. Thus, PTEN appears to be the major target of inactivation on chromosome lOq in glioblastoma multiforme.
- Glioblastoma multiforme is the most aggressive form of glioma, and patients diagnosed with glioblastoma typically survive less than two years (1) .
- Genetic analysis of glioblastoma tumorigenesis has identified alterations of pl5/pl6/Rb/CDK4 , p53/MDM2 and EGFR
- the PTEN gene a tumor suppressor recently discovered on chromosome 10q23, contains a phosphatase domain, and its protein product has phosphatase activity (13-15) . Mutations of this gene have been detected in glioblastoma cell lines and tumors (13,14) . In addition, other types of cancer and the inherited predisposition to cancer, Cowden disease, are associated with PTEN mutations (13,14,16). To determine the frequency of PTEN alterations in glioblastomas, 34 normal-tumor pairs were investigated. The results showed that 74% (25/34) of glioblastomas demonstrated LOH at the PTEN locus, and 60%
- BAC clone D that contains the 5' end of the gene was also included in the analysis (13) .
- Each forward primer was labeled with ( ⁇ -32P) ATP by T4 polynucleotide kinase
- Intronic primer pairs were designed to amplify and sequence each exon, including the splice junctions (16) .
- Forward and reverse primer sequences for exon 2 are 5 ' - GTTTGATTGCTGCATATTTCAG- 3 ' and 5' -GGCTTAGAAATCTTTTCTAAATG-3' , respectively, for exon 3, 5 ' - AATGACATGATTACTACTCTA - 3 ' and 5' -TTAATCGGTTTAGGAATACAA-3 ' , respectively, and for exon 4 , 5 ' - CATTATAAAGATTCAGGCAATG - 3 ' and 5' -GACAGTAAGATACAGTCTATC-3' , respectively.
- the sequencing primer for exon 2 is 5' -TCTAAATGAAAACACAACATGAA-3' (antisense), for exon 4, 5' -GATTCAGGCAATGTTTGTTAG-3' (sense).
- the reverse PCR primer for exon 3 was used as a sequencing primer for the same exon. All primers used in this study were purchased from DNAgency (Malvern, PA) . 10-50 ng of genomic DNA were amplified at 94°C for 30 sec, 54 °C for 1 min and 72 °C for 1 min for 35 cycles.
- PCR products Prior to sequencing reactions, PCR products were treated with 10 units of exonuclease I and 2 units of shrimp alkaline phosphatase for 25 min at 37 °C and incubated at 80 °C for 15 min. Cycle sequencing (Amersham Life Science) was performed for 25 cycles. Sequencing reactions were resolved on 5% polyacrylamide gels buffered with taurine . Each mutation has been verified independently at least 2 times.
- Glioblastoma multiforme samples from 34 tumor cases were sequenced throughout all 9 exons of the PTEN gene, and mutations were found in 11 cases (Table 4) .
- Frameshift mutations (Fig. 8A) that resulted in premature translational termininations were detected in three cases (2, 19 and 21) .
- case 2 an A insertion at cysteine 136 resulted in a subsequent termination at codon 146; in case 19, an AT deletion at nucleotide positions 227-228 converted tyrosine 76 to a stop codon; in case 21, a 4-bp deletion from nucleotide positions 1011-1014 at codon 337 resulted in a subsequent termination at codon 343.
- Nonsense mutations were detected at tyrosine 225, arginine 335 and tyrosine 336 in cases 10, 6, and 8, respectively (Fig. 8B) .
- Five missense mutations were found (Fig. 8C) .
- a G to T mutation in case 26 resulted in a glutamate 107 to tyrosine alteration, and a G to C change in case 30 resulted in alanine 121 to proline.
- Glycine 129 and glycine 165 were mutated to arginine in case 20 and case 15, respectively.
- leucine 345 was mutated to glutamine . No mutations were detected in the blood-derived DNA, indicating that all mutations were somatic.
- Mutated nucleotides are in boldface type. Positions refer to the deduced PTEN protein sequence (13); fs, frameshift
- D10S532, D10S1687, D10S541 and D10S583 were initially used to evaluate allelic loss in this locus (Fig. 9) .
- the frequency of LOH was 83% (19/23) for D10S532, 81% (17/21) for D10S1687, 57% (12/21) for D10S541 and 64% (18/28) for D10S583.
- Tumors with microsatellite instability were detected in two cases (7 and 18) . Further, there were 8 cases with no detectable chromosomal lesions.
- a BAC spanning the 5' end was probed with a poly(CA)n oligonucleotide to identify novel CA repeats.
- a highly polymorphic marker, PTENCA was obtained that is located within the PTEN gene. This marker was informative for 82% (28/34) of samples. LOH was detected in 68% (19/28) of the samples and all these cases were also hemizygously deleted in at least one of the flanking loci.
- a point mutation polymorphism in intron eight of PTEN demonstrated LOH in 68% (15/22) of informative samples.
- 25 cases (74%) showed loss of heterozygosity at two or more of these loci (Fig. 9) .
- LOH frequency on chromosome lOq ranges from 83%- 95% with the epicenter of loss located at 10q24-25 (9-11) .
- the epicenter of LOH on 10q24-25 may be a summation of deletions targeting PTEN and random partial chromosomal losses distal to the PTEN locus.
- all examples of LOH indicate chromosomal break points that are centromeric to PTEN (Fig. 9) . These data indicate that LOH in this region typically includes the PTEN gene. Alternatively, another tumor suppressor may exist distal to PTEN.
- glial tumor development clearly implicates chromosome lOq and therefore PTEN in the transition from anaplastic astrocytoma to glioblastoma multiforme (2) .
- chromosome lOq PTEN in the transition from anaplastic astrocytoma to glioblastoma multiforme (2) .
- p53 is altered in all grades of astrocytoma-derived tumors, suggesting that p53 inactivation is an early step in glial tumor formation (6) .
- Progression to anaplastic astrocytoma is associated with mutations of pl5/pl6/Rb/CDK4 (4,5) .
- the transition to glioblastoma correlates with loss of chromosome lOq and an increase in the freqency of alterations affecting the cyclin D pathway (4,5) .
- glioblastomas are diagnosed in the absence of a prior lower grade glial tumor, however.
- p53 mutations are not commonly observed, rather EGFR amplifications are seen at high frequency along with alterations of lOq and the cyclin D pathway.
- p53 and EGFR alterations are not found in the same tumor (8) .
- individual tumors accumulate alterations in the cyclin D regulatory pathway, chromosome lOq, for which PTEN is the likely target, and either p53 or EGFR.
