Comprehensive and Integrative Genomic Characterization of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Open accessAbstract
Liver cancer has the second highest worldwide cancer mortality rate and has limited therapeutic options. We analyzed 363 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cases by whole-exome sequencing and DNA copy number analyses, and we analyzed 196 HCC cases by DNA methylation, RNA, miRNA, and proteomic expression also. DNA sequencing and mutation analysis identified significantly mutated genes, including LZTR1, EEF1A1, SF3B1, and SMARCA4. Significant alterations by mutation or downregulation by hypermethylation in genes likely to result in HCC metabolic reprogramming (ALB, APOB, and CPS1) were observed. Integrative molecular HCC subtyping incorporating unsupervised clustering of five data platforms identified three subtypes, one of which was associated with poorer prognosis in three HCC cohorts. Integrated analyses enabled development of a p53 target gene expression signature correlating with poor survival. Potential therapeutic targets for which inhibitors exist include WNT signaling, MDM4, MET, VEGFA, MCL1, IDH1, TERT, and immune checkpoint proteins CTLA-4, PD-1, and PD-L1.

Human HCCs with CTNNB1 and ARID2 mutations from two independent studies also showed up-regulation of many of the same WNT pathway genes (NOTUM, AQP9, TBX3, ABCB11, GLUL) as observed in mouse models.
“Notably, human HCCs with CTNNB1 and ARID2 mutations from two independent studies (25, 35) also showed up-regulation of many of the same WNT pathway genes (NOTUM, AQP9, TBX3, ABCB11, GLUL) as observed in our mouse models (fig. S6B and table S4).”

The Results sections on Somatic Mutations and Other Signaling Pathways (pages unavailable) report CTNNB1 and ARID2 mutations in human HCC and frequent alterations in WNT signaling. They do not report that HCCs with those mutations up-regulate NOTUM, AQP9, TBX3, ABCB11, or GLUL. Searches for the named genes and their expression did not establish that part of the claim.

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredCpGs in CG-poor regions are generally methylated, while CpGs within CGIs remain unmethylated in normal cells and aberrantly hypermethylated in cancer.
“The CpGs in CG-poor regions are generally methylated, while CpGs within CGIs remain unmethylated in normal cells49 and aberrantly hypermethylated in cancer2,50.”

The Results (Methylation Profiling; page unavailable) report cancer-specific CpG hypermethylation in hepatocellular carcinoma compared with normal tissue. They do not establish that the hypermethylated CpGs are within CpG islands or that this pattern applies to cancer generally. The earlier claims about CG-poor regions and normal cells are not attached to this citation. (LLM, conf=0.86)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredRNA-seq analysis of the TCGA HCC dataset showed a strong negative correlation between BAAT, CYP7A1, CYP7B1, and CYP8B1 expression and CD8A, PDCD1, and IFNG expression.
“Furthermore, RNA-seq analysis of the HCC dataset from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Pan-Cancer Atlas (25) demonstrated a strong negative correlation between BAAT, CYP7A1, CYP7B1, and CYP8B1 expression and CD8A, PDCD1, and IFNG expression (Fig. 2M and fig. S6C),”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
