    Abstract Lung cancer is one of the deadliest, most aggressive cancers. Abrupt changes in gene expression represent an important challenge to understand and fight the disease. Gene co-expression networks (GCNs) have been widely used to study the genomic regulatory landscape of human cancer. Here, based on 1,143 RNA-Seq experiments from the TCGA collaboration, we constructed GCN for the most common types of lung tumors: adenocarcinoma (TAD) and squamous cells (TSCs) as well as their respective control networks (NAD and NSC). We compared the number of intra-chromosome (

    Abstract Pituitary tumors (PT) are highly heterogeneous neoplasms, comprising functioning and nonfunctioning lesions. Functioning PT include prolactinomas, causing amenorrhea-galactorrhea in women and sexual dysfunction in men; GH-secreting adenomas causing acromegaly-gigantism; ACTH-secreting corticotrophinomas causing Cushing disease (CD); and the rare TSH-secreting thyrotrophinomas that result in central hyperthyroidism. Nonfunctioning PT do not result in a hormonal hypersecretion syndrome and most of them are of gonadotrope differentiation; other non-functioning PT include null cell adenomas and silent ACTH-, GH- and PRL-adenomas. Less than 5% of PT occur in a familial or syndromic context whereby germline mutations of specific genes account for their molecular pathogenesis. In contrast, the more common sporadic PT do not result from a single molecular abnormality but rather emerge from several oncogenic events that culminate in an increased proliferation of pituitary cells, and in the case of functioning tumors, in a non-regulated hormonal hypersecretion. In recent years, important advances in the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of PT have been made, including the genomic, transcriptomic, epigenetic, and proteomic characterization of these neoplasms. In this review, we summarize the available molecular information pertaining the oncogenesis of PT.

    Abstract Over 20 years ago, Hanahan and Weinberg published a seminal review that addressed the biological processes that underly malignant transformation. This classical review, along with two revisions published in 2011 and 2022, has remain a classic of the oncology literature. Since many of the addressed biological processes may apply to non-malignant tumorigenesis, we evaluated to what extent these hallmarks pertain to the development of pituitary adenomas.Some of the biological processes analyzed in this review include genome instability generated by somatic USP8 and GNAS mutations in Cushing's diseases and acromegaly respectively; non-mutational epigenetic reprograming through changes in methylation; induction of angiogenesis through alterations of VEGF gene expression; promotion of proliferative signals mediated by EGFR; evasion of growth suppression by disrupting cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors; avoidance of immune destruction; and the promotion of inflammation mediated by alteration of gene expression of immune check points. We also elaborate further on the existence of oncogene induced senescence in pituitary tumors. We conclude that a better understanding of these processes can help us dilucidated why pituitary tumors are so resistant to malignant transformation and can potentially contribute to the development of novel anticancer treatments.

    Abstract Corticotroph cells give rise to aggressive and rare pituitary neoplasms comprising ACTH-producing adenomas resulting in Cushing disease (CD), clinically silent ACTH adenomas (SCA), Crooke cell adenomas (CCA) and ACTH-producing carcinomas (CA). The molecular pathogenesis of these tumors is still poorly understood. To better understand the genomic landscape of all the lesions of the corticotroph lineage, we sequenced the whole exome of three SCA, one CCA, four ACTH-secreting PA causing CD, one corticotrophinoma occurring in a CD patient who developed Nelson syndrome after adrenalectomy and one patient with an ACTH-producing CA. The ACTH-producing CA was the lesion with the highest number of single nucleotide variants (SNV) in genes such as

    Abstract Background: Pituitary adenomas (PA) are the second most common intracranial tumors and are classified according to hormone they produce, and the transcription factors they express. The majority of PA occur sporadically, and their molecular pathogenesis is incompletely understood.
    Methods: Here we performed transcriptome and proteome analysis of tumors derived from POU1F1 (GH-, TSH-, and PRL-tumors, N = 16), NR5A1 (gonadotropes and null cells adenomas, n = 17) and TBX19 (ACTH-tumors, n = 6) lineages as well as from silent ACTH-tumors (n = 3) to determine expression of kinases, cyclins, CDKs and CDK inhibitors.
    Results: The expression profiles of genes encoding kinases were distinctive for each of the three PA lineage: NR5A1-derived tumors showed upregulation of ETNK2 and PIK3C2G and alterations in MAPK, ErbB and RAS signaling, POU1F1-derived adenomas showed upregulation of PIP5K1B and NEK10 and alterations in phosphatidylinositol, insulin and phospholipase D signaling pathways and TBX19-derived adenomas showed upregulation of MERTK and STK17B and alterations in VEGFA-VEGFR, EGF-EGFR and Insulin signaling pathways. In contrast, the expression of the different genes encoding cyclins, CDK and CDK inhibitors among NR5A1-, POU1F1- and TBX19-adenomas showed only subtle differences. CDK9 and CDK18 were upregulated in NR5A1-adenomas, whereas CDK4 and CDK7 were upregulated in POUF1-adenomas.
    Conclusions: The kinome of PA clusters these lesions into three distinct groups according to the transcription factor that drives their terminal differentiation. And these complexes could be harnessed as molecular therapy targets.

    Abstract Pituitary adenomas (PA) are the second most common intracranial tumors. These neoplasms are classified according to the hormone they produce. The majority of PA occur sporadically, and their molecular pathogenesis is incompletely understood. The present transcriptomic and methylomic analysis of PA revealed that they segregate into three molecular clusters according to the transcription factor driving their terminal differentiation. First cluster, driven by NR5A1, consists of clinically non-functioning PA (CNFPA), comprising gonadotrophinomas and null cell; the second cluster consists of clinically evident ACTH adenomas and silent corticotroph adenomas, driven by TBX19; and the third, POU1F1-driven TSH-, PRL- and GH-adenomas, segregated together. Genes such as CACNA2D4, EPHA4 and SLIT1, were upregulated in each of these three clusters, respectively. Pathway enrichment analysis revealed specific alterations of these clusters: calcium signaling pathway in CNFPA; renin-angiotensin system for ACTH-adenomas and fatty acid metabolism for the TSH-, PRL-, GH-cluster. Non-tumoral pituitary scRNAseq data confirmed that this clustering also occurs in normal cytodifferentiation. Deconvolution analysis identify potential mononuclear cell infiltrate in PA consists of dendritic, NK and mast cells. Our results are consistent with a divergent origin of PA, which segregate into three clusters that depend on the specific transcription factors driving late pituitary cytodifferentiation.

    Abstract Background: The SARS-CoV-2 is the etiological agent causing COVID-19 which has infected more than 2 million people with more than 200000 deaths since its emergence in December 2019. In the majority of cases patients are either asymptomatic or show mild to moderate symptoms and signs of a common cold. A subset of patients, however, develop a severe atypical pneumonia, with the characteristic ground-glass appearance on chest x-ray and computerized tomography, which evolves into an acute respiratory distress syndrome, that requires mechanical ventilation and eventually results in multiple organ failure and death. The Molecular pathogenesis of COVID-19 is still unknown.
    Aim of the study: In the present work we performed a stringent metanalysis from the publicly available RNAseq data from bronchoalveolar cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells to elucidate molecular alterations and cellular deconvolution to identify immune cell profiles.
    Results: Alterations in genes involved in hyaluronan, glycosaminoglycan and mucopolysaccharides metabolism were over-represented in bronchoalveolar cells infected by SARS-CoV-2, as well as potential lung infiltration with neutrophils, T CD4+ cell and macrophages. The blood mononuclear cells presented a proliferative state. Dramatic reduction of NK and T lymphocytes, whereas an exacerbated increase in monocytes.
    Conclusions: In summary our results revealed molecular pathogenesis of the SARS-CoV-2 infection to bronchoalveolar cells inducing the hyaluronan and glycosaminoglycan metabolism that could shape partially the components of the ground-glass opacities observed in CT. And the potential immune response profile in COVID-19.

    Abstract Background: Clinically non-functioning Pituitary Adenomas (NFPA) are among the most common neoplasms of the sellar region. They usually present with compressive symptoms such as headache and visual field defects and not infrequently, are found incidentally. NFPA are classified as gonadotropinomas, null cell adenomas, according to their immunohistochemical phenotype. The molecular alterations responsible for the development of these lesions are incompletely understood, and there is scarce information regarding the molecular alterations and markers.
    Objective: We carried out an in-silico analysis aimed at identifying the molecular alterations in NFPA and to discover new molecular markers.
    Methods: Twenty-three microarray libraries were analyzed. Fourteen correspond to NFPA and 9 to control tissue gland. They were analyzed using Partek Genomic Suite to identify differentially expressed genes and WebGestalt and Metascape to understand the meaning behind the gene lists.
    Results: Pituitary adenomas showed a markedly different transcriptome compared to the non-tumoral gland, regardless of their putative immunophenotype. Genes related to calcium metabolism such as CACNA2D4, immune-related CXCR4, and stem cell-related KLF8 and PITX2 were altered.
    Conclusions: Differentially expressed calcium metabolism and immune-related genes in NFPA represent attractive molecular markers and potential therapeutic targets.

    Abstract Corticotroph cells give rise to aggressive and rare pituitary neoplasms comprising ACTH-producing adenomas resulting in Cushing disease (CD), clinically silent ACTH adenomas (SCA), Crooke cell adenomas (CCA) and ACTH-producing carcinomas (CA). The molecular pathogenesis of these tumors is still poorly understood. To better understand the genomic landscape of all the lesions of the corticotroph lineage, we sequenced the whole exome of three SCA, one CCA, four ACTH-secreting PA causing CD, one corticotrophinoma occurring in a CD patient who developed Nelson syndrome after adrenalectomy and one patient with an ACTH-producing CA. The ACTH-producing CA was the lesion with the highest number of single nucleotide variants (SNV) in genes such as USP8 , TP53, AURKA, EGFR, HSD3B1 and CDKN1A . The USP8 variant was found only in the ACTH-CA and in the corticotrophinoma occurring in a patient with Nelson syndrome. In CCA, SNV in TP53, EGFR, HSD3B1 and CDKN1A SNV were present. HSD3B1 and CDKN1A SNVs were present in all three SCA, whereas in two of these tumors SNV in TP53, AURKA and EGFR were found. None of the analyzed tumors showed SNV in USP48, BRAF, BRG1 or CABLES1 . The amplification of 17q12 was found in all tumors, except for the ACTH-producing carcinoma. The four clinically functioning ACTH adenomas and the ACTH-CA shared the amplification of 10q11.22 and showed more copy-number variation (CNV) gains and single-nucleotide variations than the nonfunctioning tumors.
