Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Lung cancer is globally the leading cause of cancer death with the estimated number of the annual deaths as around 1.4 million. Cigarette smoking is a predominant etiological factor of lung carcinogenesis. Further attention has been paid to a growing number of lung carcinomas occurring in never-smokers, suggesting a biologically different disease with a genetic susceptibility. In this regard, the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) gene mutation is more frequent in lung adenocarcinomas of never smokers. In this study, we acquired two 2-generational pedigrees containing more than 2 family members affected with lung adenocarcinoma with EGFR gene mutations, and performed exome capture and sequencing of whole-blood DNA. A de novo mutation was identified in lung cancer patients, but was not in two control subjects. The mutation alters the amino acid sequence, and confers dominant-negative activity that potentially underlies the pathogenesis of EGFR-mutated lung adenocarcinoma.
