2. 1. Histologic- to a genetic-based level.
2. Somatic genetic alterations are legitimate targets for therapy.
3. Tumor genotyping is helping clinicians individualize treatments
by matching patients with the best treatment for their
tumors.
4. Tumor-specific DNA alterations represent highly sensitive biomarkers for
disease detection and monitoring.
5. Finally, the ongoing analyses of multiple cancer genomes will
identify additional targets, whose pharmacologic exploitation
will undoubtedly result in new therapeutic approaches.
10. Inducing angiogenesis
• VEGF A- ( three receptors R1-R3)
upregulated by Hypoxia and Oncogenes
• Thrombospondin 1 ( Tsp-1)
• Fibroblast growth factor (FGF)
• It also contribute to microscopic premalignant
phase of neoplastic progression
• Intensity of angiogeneisis is variable
21. • Driver Mutation : - functional role in
malignant transformation
• Passenger Mutation : - Neutral / No functional
role
- incorporate the signature of previous
exposure
27. • Cancer genes are broadly grouped into
oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes.
• Mutations in oncogenes typically occur at specific
hotspots, often affecting the same codon or
clustered at neighboring codons in different
tumors.
• mutations in oncogenes are almost always
missense,
• Affect only one allele, making them
heterozygous.
28. • tumor suppressor genes are usually mutated
throughout the gene; a large number of the
mutations may truncate the encoded protein
and
• generally affect both alleles, causing loss of
heterozygosity (LOH).
32. DNA Sequencing
• DNA sequencing is the process of determining
the precise order of nucleotides within a DNA
molecule.
33. First Gen Sequence
• Maxam-Gilbert sequencing
.
• Chain-termination methods
The chain-termination method developed by Frederick
Sanger and coworkers in 1977
.
• The Sanger method, in mass production form, is the
technology which produced the first human genome in
2001, ushering in the age of genomics. However, later
in the decade, radically different approaches reached
the market, bringing the cost per genome down from
$100 million in 2001 to $10,000 in 2011
34.
35. Ingredients for Sanger sequencing
• Sanger sequencing involves making many copies of a target
DNA region.
Its ingredients are similar to those needed for DNA replication
in an organism, or for polymerase chain reaction (PCR),
which copies DNA in vitro. They include:
• A DNA polymerase enzyme
• A primer, which is a short piece of single-stranded DNA
that binds to the template DNA and acts as a "starter" for
the polymerase
• The four DNA nucleotides (dATP, dTTP, dCTP, dGTP)
• The template DNA to be sequenced
36.
37. Human Genome Project
• The sequencing of the human genome was
completed in 2003, after 13 years of
international collaboration and investment of
USD 3 billion.
• The Human Genome Project used Sanger
sequencing
• Haplotype Map of human Genome
38. • A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP,
pronounced snip) is a DNA sequence variation
occurring when a single nucleotide adenine
(A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), or guanine (G])
in the genome (or other shared sequence)
differs between members of a species or
paired chromosomes in an individual.
39. • A SNP in which both forms lead to the same
polypeptide sequence is
termed synonymous (sometimes called a
silent mutation) — if a different polypeptide
sequence is produced they
are nonsynonymous. A nonsynonymous
change may either be missense or nonsense,
40. NGS
Next generation methods of DNA sequencing
have three general steps:
• Library preparation: libraries are created
using random fragmentation of DNA, followed
by ligation with custom linkers
• Amplification: the library is amplified using
clonal amplification methods and PCR
• Sequencing: DNA is sequenced using one of
several different approaches
41.
42. DNA is fragmented either enzymatically or by sonication (excitation using ultrasound)
to create smaller strands.
Adaptors (short, double-stranded pieces of synthetic DNA) are then ligated to these
fragments with the help of DNA ligase, an enzyme that joins DNA strands.
The adaptors enable the sequence to become bound to a complementary
counterpart.
47. Third generation sequencing
single molecule sequencing and single real time sequencing,
removing the need for clonal amplification.
reduces errors caused by PCR,
simplifies library preparation and,
gives a much higher read length using higher throughput platforms.
SMRT (single molecule real time)
sequencing

49. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA)
TCGA is a joint effort of the National Cancer
Institute (NCI) and the National Human
Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), which
are both part of the National Institutes of
Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services.
Started in 2006
• brain (glioblastoma), lung, and ovarian.

subtypes which are of clinical and societal
importance across the globe.
