| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The BAP1 gene, one of the histone modifiers, on 3p21.1 is frequently deleted or mutated in the malignant mesothelioma (MM) cell lines established from sporadic Japanese cases. We established the MLPA method to detect its deletion. Using whole exome analysis of eight MM cell lines, we picked up 312 genes with biallelic deletions and/or variants with protein damaging. Gene annotation analysis revealed that 302 genes belong to the family genes of histone modifier, chromatin remodeling (especially mSWEI/SNF), transcription factors and their co-factors. We also detected several MM cells were resistant to HDAC-inhibitors. Since HDAC-inhibitors lead to growth arrest and differentiation through histone modifiers, they were not effective to MM cells without these factors. We also detected that several somatic variants detected by whole exome analysis were derived from germline, suggesting that these germline variants may be useful markers to detect MM susceptibility.
