    Abstract: Introduction: Amplification of chromosome 11q13 is the most common DNA aberration in human papilloma virus negative (HPV-) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. (HSNCC). The 11q13 region encodes various genes known to enhance invasion and drive tumor progression. CORO1B (coronin 1B) flanks the core 11q13 region and is amplified in 7-14% of HNSCC cases. Coronin 1B governs cell motility in fibroblasts by negatively regulating the ability of the Arp 2/3 nucleator cortactin to stabilize the actin cytoskeleton during mesenchymal cell migration. This study seeks to determine the impact of CORO1B amplification and protein overexpression in driving HNSCC progression. Experimental Procedures: Two patient cohorts were used to assess the impact of CORO1B amplification or overexpression on patient outcome. In addition, HNSCC cell lines lacking or overexpressing coronin 1B were assayed for invadopodia function using gelatin degradation assays. Three-dimensional invasion was analyzed using tumor spheroid and organotypic assays. Invasive and cervical lymph node metastatic potential of CORO1B was evaluated using knockdown and overexpression cells in orthotopic tongue models. Data Summary: CORO1B amplification and overexpression in patient tumors correlates with enhanced patient decline. Coronin 1B-null cell lines display decreased invadopodia function, with a 30-60% decrease in extracellular matrix-mimicking gelatin degradation. HNSCC tumor spheroids lacking coronin 1B expression decreased 3D invasion in native collagen I, while overexpression enhanced invasive capabilities in both tumor spheroids and organotypic cultures. Coronin 1B knockdown cells show decreased lymph node metastasis, while mice with tumors overexpression coronin 1B have enhanced lymph node metastasis and decreased survival. CORO1B amplification protein overexpression predict poor overall patient survival. Conclusion: The identification of coronin 1B overexpression as an important mediator in promoting HNSCC invasive processes may define a novel aggressive subset of locoregional involved HNSCC, warranting enhanced clinical intervention.

    Abstract: Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is highly invasive cancer type that occurs with greater incidence in West Virginia and the rest of Appalachia. The chromosome 11q13 region is amplified in approximately 30% of late stage HNSCC cases and is associated with a poor patient prognosis. The core 11q13 region encodes the well-studied tumor genes CCND1 (cyclin D1) and CTTN (cortactin). The CORO1B (coronin 1B) gene flanks the 11q13 core and is amplified in 9-14% of all HNSCC, but how CORO1B amplification contributes to HNSCC is unknown. Coronin 1B governs cell motility by negatively regulating F-actin stability through displacement of cortactin at actin related protein 2/3 (Arp 2/3) branch points, generating dynamic turnover of Arp2/3-F-actin networks required for productive cell movement. Kaplan-Meier analysis of two independent patient cohorts indicates that HNSCC cases with CORO1B amplification have significantly reduced overall survival. Cox hazard ratios also indicate the CORO1B amplification is strongly associated with increased mortality in both cohorts. Automated quantitative analysis (AQUA) of coronin 1B expression in HNSCC tissue microarrays indicates that coronin 1B overexpression decreases median survival of HNSCC patients from 81 to 29 months. Reduced expression of coronin 1B by RNAi-mediated knockdown in established HNSCC cell lines decreases several actin-mediated invasive processes, including invadopodia formation and extracelluar matrix degradation. Collectively these results suggest that elevated coronin 1B expression levels in HNSCC function to enhance tumor invasion, potentially through accelerated downregulation of cortactin stabilizing activity at Arp2/3-F-actin junctions. Importantly, CORO1B amplification and coronin 1B expression status may serve a role as a precision biomarker for identification of a subset of late-stage HNSCC patients that would benefit from more aggressive forms of initial clinical treatment.

    Abstract: The United States Appalachian region harbors a higher cancer burden than the rest of the nation, with disparate incidence of head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), including oral cavity and pharynx (OC/P) cancers. Whether elevated HNSCC incidence generates survival disparities within Appalachia is unknown. To address this, HNSCC survival data for 259,737 tumors from the North American Association for Central Cancer Registries 2007–2013 cohort were evaluated, with age-adjusted relative survival (RS) calculated based on staging, race, sex, and Appalachian residence. Tobacco use, a primary HNSCC risk factor, was evaluated through the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System from Appalachian states. Decreased OC/P RS was found in stage IV Appalachian white males within a subset of states. The survival disparity was confined to human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated oropharyngeal cancers, specifically the oropharynx subsite. This correlated with significantly higher smoking and male smokeless tobacco use in most Appalachian disparity states. Lower survival of Appalachian males with advanced-stage HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancers suggests pervasive tobacco consumption likely generates more aggressive tumors at HPV-associated oropharynx subsites than national averages. Comprehensive tobacco and HPV status should therefore be evaluated prior to considering treatment de-intensification regimens for HPV-associated oropharyngeal cancers in populations with high tobacco consumption.

    Abstract: The chr12q24.13 locus encoding OAS1–OAS3 antiviral proteins has been associated with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) susceptibility. Here, we report genetic, functional and clinical insights into this locus in relation to COVID-19 severity. In our analysis of patients of European ( n  = 2,249) and African ( n  = 835) ancestries with hospitalized versus nonhospitalized COVID-19, the risk of hospitalized disease was associated with a common OAS1 haplotype, which was also associated with reduced severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) clearance in a clinical trial with pegIFN-λ1. Bioinformatic analyses and in vitro studies reveal the functional contribution of two associated OAS1 exonic variants comprising the risk haplotype. Derived human-specific alleles rs10774671-A and rs1131454 -A decrease OAS1 protein abundance through allele-specific regulation of splicing and nonsense-mediated decay (NMD). We conclude that decreased OAS1 expression due to a common haplotype contributes to COVID-19 severity. Our results provide insight into molecular mechanisms through which early treatment with interferons could accelerate SARS-CoV-2 clearance and mitigate against severe COVID-19.

    Abstract: Malregulation of the actin cytoskeleton enhances tumor cell motility and invasion. The actin-binding protein cortactin facilitates branched actin network formation through activation of the actin-related protein (Arp) 2/3 complex. Increased cortactin expression due to gene amplification is observed in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and other cancers, corresponding with elevated tumor progression and poor patient outcome. Arp2/3 complex activation is responsible for driving increased migration and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation by governing invadopodia formation and activity. Although cortactin-mediated activation of Arp2/3 complex and invadopodia regulation has been well established, signaling pathways responsible for governing cortactin binding to Arp2/3 are unknown and potentially present a new avenue for anti-invasive therapeutic targeting. Here we identify casein kinase (CK) 2α phosphorylation of cortactin as a negative regulator of Arp2/3 binding. CK2α directly phosphorylates cortactin at a conserved threonine (T24) adjacent to the canonical Arp2/3 binding motif. Phosphorylation of cortactin T24 by CK2α impairs the ability of cortactin to bind Arp2/3 and activate actin nucleation. Decreased invadopodia activity is observed in HNSCC cells with expression of CK2α phosphorylation-null cortactin mutants, shRNA-mediated CK2α knockdown, and with the CK2α inhibitor Silmitasertib. Silmitasertib inhibits HNSCC collective invasion in tumor spheroids and orthotopic tongue tumors in mice. Collectively these data suggest that CK2α-mediated cortactin phosphorylation at T24 is critical in regulating cortactin binding to Arp2/3 complex and pro-invasive activity, identifying a potential targetable mechanism for impairing HNSCC invasion. Implications: This study identifies a new signaling pathway that contributes to enhancing cancer cell invasion. Visual Overview: http://mcr.aacrjournals.org/content/molcanres/17/4/987/F1.large.jpg.

    Abstract: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) have been implicated in many diseases, including cancer. Although these disease-associated effects have been mostly attributed to the ability of lncRNAs to function as regulatory noncoding transcripts, there is growing evidence that lncRNAs may also encode functional micropeptides. In the current issue of Cancer Research, Wu and colleagues report a micropeptide encoded by a Y chromosome–linked lncRNA that may explain the higher incidence of esophageal cancer in male smokers. Furthermore, this report provides broader insights related to the molecular epidemiology of male-dominant and smoking-driven cancers and may also help explain some cancer-related associations with mosaic Y chromosome loss.
