Title:	GATA3 mutation of luminal-type breast cancer patients in Taiwan
Authors:	Tsai, SF
Contributors:	Institute of Molecular and Genomic Medicine
Abstract:	To investigate the mutation landscape of luminal-type breast cancer in Taiwan, we have conducted whole-genome sequencing on 20 cases of breast cancer, including 15 cases of those positive for estrogen receptor and 5 cases negative for estrogen receptor. Specifically, we searched for mutations in TP53, GATA3, and ESR1 genes. Additionally, we designed an amplificon sequencing scheme to interrogate the GATA3 coding sequences. GATA3 mutation has been previously reported to be correlated with suppression of proliferation upon aromatase inhibitor treatment. Also, the prevalence and clinical significance of GATA3 mutation-positive breast cancer differed between the TCGA cohort and the Fudan cohort. In our current series that focuses on breast cancer patients of Han Chinese living in Taiwan, we have identified 21 GATA3 mutations among 72 breast cancer tumor specimens screened by the amplicon sequence, and another 3 samples with GATA3 mutation by whole-genome sequencing. Notably, Pro409Alafs mutation occurred in six cases and this truncation mutation showed an average VAF of 0.155. A specific antibody was raised against the additional c-terminal amino acid sequence for the detection of the abnormally expressed proteins in these cases. As GATA3 is required for epithelial cell differentiation and as both normal breast luminal epithelium and estrogen-receptor-positive tumors showed high GATA3 expression, we are conducting further studies to demonstrate the clinical relevance of GATA3 mutation and the potential value of the Pro409Alafs as an outcome predictor for luminal-type breast cancer.
