摘要

Esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC), with its precursorlesion Barrett’s esophagus (BE), accounts for 2% of allcancer-related deaths and has a very poor prognosis witha median survival of less than one year. In addition, theprevalence of BE is rapidly rising in the Western World,resulting in a large number of individuals “at risk” forthis disease. However, a major limitation for defining thisrisk population is the absence of reliable biomarkers,which also affects the development of surveillance strategiesand chemoprevention therapies for BE and EAC.The development of BE has been thought to arise largelybecause of chronic esophageal inflammation and the subsequentthe expansion of some sort of an altered stemcell population due to alteration of stromal niche factors.This also leads to epigenetic alterations, which are commonin cancer initiation and progression, such aschanges in DNA methylation. Many genes show greatpromise as specific DNA methylation biomarkers, whichoffer several advantages, as they are easy accessible inbody fluids such as blood, sputum, or urine and the DNAcontaining the methylation information can be isolatedfrom formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue aswell; the positive methylation signal can also be detectedin the presence of huge amounts of material from normalcells giving a negative signal. We measured two DNAmethylation markers, DKK1 (a WNT antagonist, knownto be methylated in colorectal and gastric cancer whichhas a function tumor cell niche formation) and TFAP2E(a novel biomarker for nonresponse towards 5FU incolon cancer) in a retrospective cohort of patients withEAC collected at the Institute of Pathology at the TUMunich (FFPE material), using Methylspecific-HRM-PCRfollowed by pyrosequencing.ResultsIn a cohort of 60 EAC patients (primary resections), DKK1methylation was associated with overall survival (ROCanalysis, AUC 0.69, 95% CI, p < 0,001) as well as diseasefree survival (AUC 0.63, 95% CI, p < 0,01). In anothercohort of 55 patients who received neoadjuvant chemotherapy(5FU, cisplatin, folinic acid) TFAP2E methylationwas found also to be associated with overall survival(AUC 0.64, 95% CI, p < 0,05) but less so if patients whodid not receive 5FU (taxol, cisplatin) were included (AUC0.62,95% CI, p < 0,05).
