  1. Perspectives of metabolomicstowards personalized medicine Oliver Fiehn Genome Center, University of California, Davis fiehnlab.ucdavis.edu PI Prof Carsten Denkert, Charite, Berlin

  2. Metabolism is the endpoint of non-linear cellular regulation Genotype x Environment mRNA expression Background protein expression metabolite levels & fluxes temporal x spatial resolution phenotype Fiehn 2001 Comp. Funct. Genomics 2: 155

  4. Metabotypes: gate to personalized medicine “Intervention” Metabotype intensity Disease Background Healthy Time Metabotype = personal sum of metabolic data, e.g. biomarker panel. Analyzed over time or in response to treatment vd Greef et al. 2004 Curr. Opin.Chem.Biol. 8: 559

  7. But cancers are solely due to mutations? Background

  8. Cancer cell metabolism is linked to signaling and NADPH for rapid cell growth Background Thompson & Thompson 2004 J. Clin. Onc. 22: 4217 Sreekumar et al 2009 Nature 457: 910 Many tumors produce NADPH via glutamine gln glu  akg  succ  fum  mal  pyr  lactate Mutation in IDH1 in brain tumors leads to pro-oncogenic factor 2-hydroxyglutarate a-ketoglutarate + NADPH  2HO-glutarate + NADP+ NADP+ NADPH Dang et al 2009 Nature 462: 739

  9. Clinical validation of cancer biomarkers ….this was not claimed by Sreekumar et al. Background ….this was not claimed by Sreekumar et al. Sreekumar et al 2009 Nature 457: 910 Debate on: urine sediment vs supernatant, normalization to creatinine vs alanine vs….) • Lessons learned: • authors should disclose all data and metadata, not just graphs • biomarkers will be more robust as panel, not as single variable • validation should follow guidelines as given in the EDRN network of NCI

  10. How many platforms do we need? UC Davis Genome Center – Metabolomics Facility3,000 sq.ft. 6 GC-MS, 6 LC-MS (TOFs, QTOF, FTMS, QQQ, ion traps) ~15 staffkey card secured entrances, password-protected data pyGC-MS monomerslignin, hemicellulosecomplex lipids nanoESI-MS/MS polar & neutral lipidsUPLC-MS/MSphosphatidylcholines, -serines, -ethanolamines, -inositols, ceramides, sphingomyelins, plasmalogens, triglycerides Twister-GC-TOF volatilesterpenes, alkanes,FFA, benzenes Methods 70 100 ID 350 ID 200 ID 200 ID GCxGC-TOFprimary small metabolitessugars, HO-acids, FFA, amino acids, sterols, phosphates, aromatics UPLC-UV-MS/MS secondary metabolitesoxylipids, anthocyanins, flavonoids, pigmentsacylcarnitines, folates, glucuronidated & glycosylated aglycones

  18. Breast Cancer:Therapeutic success depends on hormonal receptor status • lifetime risk of breast cancer in the U.S. ~ 12% • lifetime risk of dying from breast cancer 3% • in U.S., around 200k invasive plus 60k in-situ breast cancers. • in U.S., around 40k deaths by breast cancer annually. • cancer grades (1, 2, 3) reflect lack of cellular differentiation ; indicate progression grade2 grade3 grade1 Background In combination with surgery, endocrine therapy can treat ER+ (estrogen), PR+ (progesteron) or HER+ (Herceptin) tumors • Tumors without expression of hormone receptors (‘Triple negative’) are more likely progress to invasive states; patients have higher 5y mortality

  19. Study Design (1) Can we identify metabolites or metabolic pathwaysthat are associated with breast cancer clinical parameters? (2) Once we have identified those metabolic aberrations, can we validate these in a fully independent study? First cohort284 samples Nov 2008 74 normal samples 210 tumors (20 grade 1, 101 grade 2, 71 grade 3) Second cohort 113 Samples Jan 2009 23 normal samples 90 tumors (10 grade 1, 46 grade 2, 30 grade 3) EU FP7, PI Prof Carsten Denkert, Berlin Methods
