New Amplified and Highly Expressed Genes Discovered in the ERBB2 Amplicon in Breast Cancer by cDNA Microarrays1

Laboratory of Cancer Genetics, Institute of Medical Technology, University of Tampere and Tampere University Hospital, FIN-33101 Tampere, Finland [P. K., M. B.], and Cancer Genetics Branch, National Human Genome Research Institute, NIH, Bethesda, Maryland 20892 [O. M., A. K.]

Amplification of the ERBB2 oncogene at 17q12 has been well documented in breast cancer and has been shown to contribute to a poor clinical outcome. However, systematic surveys of copy number and expression levels of all genes within the 17q12 region have not been performed. Here, we used cDNA and comparative genomic hybridization microarray technologies to undertake a broad survey of genes involved in the 17q12 amplification in breast cancer. A chromosomal region-specific cDNA microarray containing 217 expressed sequence tag (EST) clones from 17q12 was constructed and used for parallel analysis of gene copy numbers and expression levels in seven breast cancer cell lines allowing direct identification of genes whose expression is elevated because of an increase in copy number in this chromosomal region. The copy number and expression survey identified 12 transcripts that showed a consistent pattern of increased copy number and expression in three or more of the 17q12-amplified cell lines. As expected, these included ERBB2 as well as the GRB7 and MLN64 genes previously shown to be coamplified with ERBB2. In addition, five other known genes and four uncharacterized ESTs were also found to be consistently activated by amplification in these breast cancer cell lines. Amplicon mapping by fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed a minimal common region of amplification containing four highly expressed genes, ERBB2, GRB7, MLN64, and an uncharacterized EST 48582. Furthermore, several other genes, although not located in the minimal common region of amplification, showed a correlated pattern of amplification and expression indicating that they might play a role in breast cancers with the 17q12 amplification. In conclusion, parallel analysis of gene copy number and expression levels by cDNA microarray can be used to directly identify candidate target genes involved in amplifications. Our results show that the 17q12 amplification in breast cancer leads to the simultaneous elevation of expression levels of several genes.
