Somatic HIF2A Gain-of-Function Mutations in Paraganglioma with Polycythemia
Open accessAbstract
Sum m a r yHypoxia-inducible factors are transcription factors controlling energy, iron metabolism, erythropoiesis, and development.When these proteins are dysregulated, they contribute to tumorigenesis and cancer progression.However, mutations in genes encoding α subunits of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF-α) have not previously been identified in any cancer.Here we report two novel somatic gain-of-function mutations in the gene encoding hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF2A) in two patients, one presenting with paraganglioma and the other with paraganglioma and somatostatinoma, both of whom had polycythemia.The two mutations were associated with increased HIF-2α activity and increased protein half-life.H ypoxia-inducible factors, originally described by Wang et al., 1 are transcription factors that respond to changes in tissue oxygen concentration.These highly conserved proteins are composed of α and β subunits.The HIF-β subunit is constitutively expressed, whereas the α subunits are inducible by hypoxia and are associated with aggressive, treatment-refractory tumors.2,3 Under normoxic conditions, HIF-1α, HIF-2α, and HIF-3α are hydroxylated on specific prolyl residues, allowing for recognition by the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumorsuppressor protein, ubiquitination, and rapid degradation through the proteasome.4 Under hypoxic conditions, prolyl hydroxylation of HIF-α proteins is reduced, resulting in their stabilization and, in turn, transcription of genes involved in the hypoxia response, including angiogenesis, glycolysis, apoptosis, proliferation, and growth.5,6 Paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas are catecholamine-producing tumors derived from the chromaffin cells of extraadrenal paraganglia and the adrenal medulla.7 The pioneering work of Neumann et al. 8 showed that about one fourth of these tumors were hereditary, a fraction that was subsequently estimated to be closer to one third, on the basis of the identification of mutations in several additional genes, including SDHA, SDHAF2, TMEM127, and MAX. 9 The identification of these genetic drivers led to the demonstration of HIF-α stabilization and dysregulation in paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas harboring mutations in VHL and succinate dehydrogenase (SDH).10,11 Somatostatinomas are somatostatin-producing neuroendocrine tumors believed to originate from neural-crest cells.They are occasionally diagnosed in patients with the VHL syndrome, multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1 or 2, or neurofibromatosis type 1. 12

“Somatic gain-of-function mutations in HIF2A have been discovered in pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (Zhuang et al., 2012;Comino-Mendez et al., 2013;Lorenzo et al., 2013;Taieb et al., 2013;Toledo et al., 2013;Yang et al., 2013), while high HIF-2α expression is associated with poor survival in patients with neuroblastoma (Holmquist-Mengelbier et al., 2006).”

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.
