    Abstract Spatiotemporal patterns of gene expression depend on enhancer elements and other factors during individual development and disease progression. The rapid progress of high-throughput techniques has led to well-defined enhancer chromatin properties. Various genome-wide methods have revealed a large number of enhancers and the discovery of three-dimensional (3D) genome architecture showing the distant interacting mechanisms of enhancers that loop to target gene promoters. Whole genome sequencing projects directed at cancer have led to the discovery of substantial enhancer dysfunction in misregulating gene expression and in tumor initiation and progression. Results from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) combined with functional genomics analyses have elucidated the functional impacts of many cancer risk-associated variants that are enriched within the enhancer regions of chromatin. Risk variants dysregulate the expression of enhancer variant-associated genes via 3D genomic interactions. Moreover, these enhancer variants often alter the chromatin binding affinity for cancer-relevant transcription factors, which in turn leads to aberrant expression of the genes associated with cancer susceptibility. In this review, we investigate the extent to which these genetic regulatory circuits affect cancer predisposition and how the recent development of genome-editing methods have enabled the determination of the impacts of genomic variation and alteration on cancer phenotype, which will eventually lead to better management plans and treatment responses to human cancer in the clinic.

    Abstract Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer in men and is a highly heritable disease that affects millions of individuals worldwide. Genome-wide association studies have to date discovered nearly 270 genetic loci harboring hundreds of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that are associated with PCa susceptibility. In contrast, the functional characterization of the mechanisms underlying PCa risk association is still growing. Given that PCa risk-associated SNPs are highly enriched in noncoding cis-regulatory genomic regions, accumulating evidence suggests a widespread modulation of transcription factor chromatin binding and allelic enhancer activity by these noncoding SNPs, thereby dysregulating gene expression. Emerging studies have shown that a proportion of noncoding variants can modulate the formation of transcription factor complexes at enhancers and CTCF-mediated 3D genome architecture. Interestingly, DNA methylation-regulated CTCF binding could orchestrate a long-range chromatin interaction between PCa risk enhancer and causative genes. Additionally, one-causal-variant-two-risk genes or multiple-risk-variant-multiple-genes are prevalent in some PCa risk-associated loci. In this review, we will discuss the current understanding of the general principles of SNP-mediated gene regulation, experimental advances, and functional evidence supporting the mechanistic roles of several PCa genetic loci with potential clinical impact on disease prevention and treatment.

    Abstract CRISPR/Cas9 is an efficient, accurate, and optimizable genome-editing tool. Here, we present a modified CRISPR/Cas9 genome-editing protocol for single nucleotide mutation in adherent cell lines. The protocol was adapted to focus on ease of use and efficiency. The protocol here describes how to generate a single nucleotide mutation in cultured 22Rv1 cells. We have also used the protocol in other adherent cell types. Thus, the protocol can be applied to assessing the effect of non-coding single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a variety of cell types. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Gao et al. (2018).

    Abstract Genome-wide association studies along with expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) mapping have identified hundreds of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and their target genes in prostate cancer (PCa), yet functional characterization of these risk loci remains challenging. To screen for potential regulatory SNPs, we designed a CRISPRi library containing 9133 guide RNAs (gRNAs) to target 2,166 candidate SNP sites implicated in PCa and identified 117 SNPs that could regulate 90 genes for PCa cell growth advantage. Among these, rs60464856 was covered by multiple gRNAs significantly depleted in the screening (FDR<0.05). Pooled SNP association analysis in the PRACTICAL and FinnGen cohorts showed significantly higher PCa risk for the rs60464856 G allele (pvalue=1.2E-16 and 3.2E-7). Subsequent eQTL analysis revealed that the G allele is associated with increased

    Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) is a common malignancy and remains the fourth-leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Oncogenic potential of SDC2 has been implicated in multiple types of cancers, yet its role and underlying molecular mechanisms in GC remain unknown. Here, we found that SDC2 was highly expressed in GC and its upregulation correlated with poor prognosis in GC patients. Depletion of SDC2 significantly suppressed the growth and invasive capability of GC cells, while overexpressing SDC2 exerts opposite effects. Combined bioinformatics and experimental analyses substantiated that overexpression of SDC2 activated the AKT signaling pathway in GC, mechanistically through the interaction between SDC2 and PDK1-PH domain, thereby facilitating PDK1 membrane translocation to promote AKT activation. Moreover, SDC2 could also function as a co-receptor for FGF2 and was profoundly involved in the FGF2-AKT signaling axis in GC. Lastly, we revealed a mechanism on the USP14-mediated stabilization of SDC2 that is likely to contribute to SDC2 upregulation in GC tissues. Furthermore, we showed that IU1, a potent USP14 inhibitor, decreased the abundance of SDC2 in GC cells. Our findings indicate that SDC2 functions as a novel GC oncogene and has potential utility as a diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for GC.

    Abstract With the development of advanced genomic methods, a large amount of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has been found to be important for cancer initiation and progression. Given that most of the genome-wide association study (GWAS)-identified cancer risk SNPs are located in the noncoding region, the expression and function of lncRNAs are more likely to be affected by the SNPs. The SNPs may affect the expression of lncRNAs directly through disrupting the binding of transcription factors or indirectly by affecting the expression of regulatory factors. Moreover, SNPs may disrupt the interaction between lncRNAs and other RNAs or proteins. Unveiling the relationship of lncRNA, protein-coding genes, transcription factors and miRNAs from the angle of genomics will improve the accuracy of disease prediction and help find new therapeutic targets.
