- W2620578932 abstract "Abstract Recent evidence shows that mutations in several driver genes can cause aberrant methylation patterns, a hallmark of cancer. In light of these findings, we hypothesized that the landscapes of tumor genomes and epigenomes are tightly interconnected. We measured this relationship using principal component analyses and methylation-mutation associations applied at the nucleotide level and with respect to genome-wide trends. We found a few mutated driver genes were associated with genome-wide patterns of aberrant hypomethylation or CpG island hypermethylation in specific cancer types. We identified associations between 737 mutated driver genes and site-specific methylation changes. Moreover, using these mutation-methylation associations, we were able to distinguish between two uterine and two thyroid cancer subtypes. The driver gene mutation-associated methylation differences between the thyroid cancer subtypes were linked to differential gene expression in JAK-STAT signaling, NADPH oxidation, and other cancer-related pathways. These results establish that driver-gene mutations are associated with methylation alterations capable of shaping regulatory network functions. In addition, the methodology presented here can be used to subdivide tumors into more homogeneous subsets corresponding to their underlying molecular characteristics, which could improve treatment efficacy. Author summary Mutations that alter the function of driver genes by changing DNA nucleotides have been recognized as a key player in cancer progression. Recent evidence showed that DNA methylation, a molecular signature that is used for controlling gene expression and that consists of cytosine residues with attached methyl groups in the context of CG dinucleotides, is also highly dysregulated in cancer and contributes to carcinogenesis. However, whether those methylation alterations correspond to mutated driver genes in cancer remains unclear. In this study, we analyzed 4,302 tumors from 18 cancer types and demonstrated that driver gene mutations are inherently connected with the aberrant DNA methylation landscape in cancer. We showed that those driver gene-associated methylation patterns can classify heterogeneous tumors in a cancer type into homogeneous subtypes and have the potential to influence the genes that contribute to tumor growth. This finding could help us to better understand the fundamental connection between driver gene mutations and DNA methylation alterations in cancer and to further improve the cancer treatment." @default.
