Abstract 2783: Common functional mechanisms underlying pleiotropy at the 19p13.1 breast and ovarian cancer cusceptibility locus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several susceptibility regions that confer risk of two or more cancers. A region at 19p13 is associated with both breast and ovarian cancer risk in the general population as well as in BRCA1/BRCA2 mutation carriers. Using the iCOGs custom genotyping array, we analyzed 438 SNPs in this region in 7,435 ER-negative breast cancer cases and 42,599 controls from BCAC, and 15,347 ovarian cancer cases and 30,845 controls from OCAC and 15,252 BRCA1 mutation carriers. We identified two significant peaks of association. Peak 1, consisting of 13 highly correlated SNPs (r2>0.95), spans a 19.4kb region harboring the BABAM1, ANKLE1 and ABHD8 genes. Peak 1 SNPs are associated with serous ovarian cancer (top hit rs4808075, P = 9.2×10-20), ER-negative breast cancer (rs61494113, P = 1.1×10-13) and breast cancer in BRCA1 mutation carriers (rs61494113, P = 7.7×10-16). Peak 2 spans over 100kb and contains 7 SNPs associated with breast cancer in BRCA1 mutation carriers only (rs4464206, P = 8.9×10-8). Multiple assays were used to establish the putative functional roles of risk SNPs and candidate susceptibility genes in this region. Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analyses identified significant genotype-gene expression correlations between genotype at the Peak 1 SNP rs480816 and ABHD8 expression in ovarian tumors (P = 3.0×10-5) and normal breast tissues (P = 2.8×10-3). The Peak 2 SNP, rs7246243, was significantly associated with BABAM1 expression (P = 5×10-3) in normal breast tissue only. Overexpression of BABAM1 in normal ovarian and breast cells did not modulate neoplastic phenotypes, whereas overexpression of ABHD8 induced a significant reduction in migration in both cell types in vitro. Differentially expressed genes in ABHD8 models, identified by RNAseq, were associated with cellular movement (P<1.82×10-44). Chromosome conformation capture (3C) identified an interaction between the ABHD8 promoter and a region containing 4 risk SNPs (rs4808075, rs10419397, rs56069439 and rs4808076) in breast and ovarian normal and cancer cells but only rs56069439 coincides with epigenetic enhancer marks in breast and ovarian cells. CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing was used to delete a 57bp region containing rs56069439 and expression of BABAM1, ANKLE1 and ABHD8 were measured. Taken together, these data suggest a common functional mechanism underlying risk of breast and ovarian cancer at this locus, mediated by rs56069439 variants differentially regulating expression of ABHD8, a gene involved in cell motility.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
