MOLECULAR EVENTS IN LUNG CARCINOGENESIS 225
MOLECULAR ANALYSIS OF PREMALIGNANT
LESIONS
Dysplastic squamous epithelium consists of only a few layers of
epithelial cells. Biopsies typically contain not only regions of dysplastic
epithelium but also histologically normal epithelium and supporting
connective tissue. Therefore, analysis of biopsies by techniques that do
not either physically separate dysplastic epithelium from the remainder
of the specimen or detect mutant gene products from within a mixture
of mutant and wild type alleles is fruitless. Microdissection of dysplastic
epithelium has been useful in providing purified tissue for analysis (Fig.
3). The resulting DNA can be analyzed by polymerase chain reaction
(PCR)-based methods.
Several classes of genetic alteration can be detected in this material.
Point mutations affecting specific target genes, such as ras or p53, can be
documented by a variety of techniques, including direct sequence analy-
sis of PCR products (Fig. 4) or single-strand conformational polymor-
phism analysis of PCR products followed by sequence analysis. Genes
in which mutations occur at one or a few codonsmfor example, activat-
ing ras mutations--are more easily analyzed than genes with many
possible mutation sites, such as p53. Chromoso~nal deletions are detected
at a molecular level by loss of heterozygosity for polymorphic markers
in dysplastic tissue (Fig. 5). The extent of deletion can be assessed by
analyzing several allelic markers at different locations on the chromo-
some of interest. To conserve dysplastic material, genomic DNA is best
initially analyzed on each individual to determine which markers are
informative. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) can provide simi-
lar information on individual cells (Figure 6). Unstable short nucteotide
repeats may undergo expansion in malignancy. These are detected by
the presence of multiple PCR products of varying size when tumor or
dysplastic DNA is amplified using primers that flank the region of
repeats, a phenomenon referred to as microsatellite instability.~4 DNA
methylation, one mechanism of gene inactivation, can be detected by a
technique involving chemical modification followed by PCR.3
Rabbitts and colleagues~3 were among the first to apply molecular
methods to the analysis of dysplastic respiratory epithelium. They de-
tected loss of heterozygosity for chromosome 3p markers in dysplastic
tissue found in proximity to lung cancer resection specimens. More
recently, Hung and coworkers34 have performed an analysis in six resec-
tion specimens. Dysplastic lesions exhibited loss of heterozygosity for
chromosome 3p markers, always losing the same allele as for the
adjacent tumor. These two seminal studies have supported the concept
that lung cancers arise from a field of abnormal epithelium harboring
one or more mutations. Similar findings have been reported for loss of
heterozygosity of chromosome 9p, another site of known or suspected
tumor suppressor genes important in lung cancer.4° p53 point mutations
have been inferred by immunohistochemistry and confirmed bv molecu-
lar means in dysplasias adjacent to tumors.~, ~-~ Recent studi~s suggest

Figure 5. Allelic loss is typically determined by amplification of polymorphic nucleotide
dimedc, trimeric or tetrameric repeat sites which exist throughout the human genome.
Polymorphism at these sites consists of variability in the length of the repeats. Repeat sites
in DNA from both target cells and normal control cells are amplified by PCR as diagrammed
(top frame) for decimeric and dodecimeric CA repeats• Strands from both alleles are
separated by non-denaturing polyacryiamide get electrophoresis. Strands of differing
lengths have differing mobilities. Possible results (bottom frame) include retention of both
alleles (Case 1), the presence of only one allele in both normal and target DNA (unihforma-
tive result, Case 2), loss of one allele (loss of heterozygosity, Case 3), loss of both alleles
(homozygous deletion, Case 4). In some cases, a small amount of normal DNA may
contaminate DNA from target cells in which case a weak band in both alleles but normal
intensity of control alleles may indicate homozygous deletion, particularly in the presence
of allelic loss in flanking regions (Case 5). Amplification may be multiplexed as a control
for quality and quantity of DNA in each amplification reaction. (Bottom frame, probe 1 is
site of potential deletion, probe 2 is a non-deleted control region.)

Ras mutations, which occur in a subset of NSCLC, are not frequently
found in adjacent dysplasias and are therefore thought to be later
events23 Aneuploidy has also been reported in preinvasive airway epi-
thelial lesions.~ Finally, increased cytosine DNA methyltransferase ex-
pression has been demonstrated in an animal model of lung carcinogene-
sis and may lead to the inactivation of growth regulatory genes.3
MECHANISMS OF FIELD CARCINOGENESIS
The term field carcinogenesis was originally used to describe the
occurrence of multiple carcinomas arising in patients with oral squa-
mous cell carcinomaZ7 The lower respiratory epithelium is also suscepti-
ble to the development of multiple primary carcinomas. The mechanism
of field carcinogenesis is currently not clear. One possibility is that the
massive exposure of the respiratory epithelium to the carcinogens pres-
ent in tobacco smoke results in the independent initiation of multiple
epithelial cells. Sozzi and colleagues~° have recently reported the analysis
of several pairs of independent primary lung cancers. Different carcino-
mas from the same individual did not share p53 point mutations or loss |'

that carcinomas arise from an area of mutated epithelium, but it does
not show shared mutation by different tumors.
We have recently studied a patient with extensive airway epithelial
dysplasia but no overt carcinoma.~ Identical p53 point mutations were
identified at multiple sites in both lungs. The presence of a germline p53
mutation or PCR artifact was ruled out. This case demonstrates that an
airway epithelial cell clone with a mutation can expand and populate
widespread areas of the lungs. A precedent for this has been reported
in the bladder, with multiple primary lesions sharing an identical p53
mutation, but this mechanism has not been previously shown to occur
prior to the development of carcinoma.73 Because p53 mutation is not
currently thought to be a common early event in lung carcinogenesis,
this case likely represents an unusual target gene, but perhaps a frequent
mechanism (i.e., expansion of a mutated epithelial clone) of field carcino-
genesis. When the most common early mutations in lung carcinogenesis
are defined, it will be possible to determine with what frequency epithe-
lial clones with mutation expand.
SUMMARY AND CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS
Many critical issues remain to be resolved in terms of the molecular
analysis of premalignant lesions:
(1) What is the usual order of mutational events in hmg carcinogenesis?
Because premalignant dysplasias adjacent to tumors frequently harbor
some of the mutations found in the tumor, a comparison of mutations
in the dysplasia and the tumor should at least be able to define which
events are "late" events, that is, found in tumor and not in dysplasia.
The technical problems inherent in analyzing small amounts of material
simultaneously for many mutations has delayed the elucidation of the
order of mutational events in lung carcinogenesis. Up to 25 loci may be
analyzed per lesion for loss of heterozygosity using multiplex PCI~, so
this information can now be obtained. This is currently an area of intense
investigation.
(2) What are the early mutational events in hmg carcinogenesis? The
vast majority of genetic analysis of dysplastic lesions has been restricted
to lesions that were discovered in resection specimens containing tu-
mors. These mutations cannot be considered to be "early" in the same
sense as mutations in a premalignant colonic polyp. Longitudinal studies
in high-risk individuals are needed to determine which mutations pre-
cede the development of lung cancer. These studies will need to incorpo-
rate either as yet to be developed improved methods of detecting muta-
tions in sputum or serial bronchoscopy and biopsy of abnormal
epithelium.
(3) What are the correlates between histologic dysplasia and mutation?
Some early experience suggests that histotogic dysplasia is not necessary
for epithelium to harbor mutated clones.-~-~

230 " MILLER & FRANKLIN
(4) What is the biologic consequence of the presence of mutated airway
epithelial clones? Several groups have now found frequent mutations
shared by numbers of airway epithelial cells. These studies have been
performed largely in subjects with lung cancer, chronic obstructive pul-
monary disease, or abnormal sputum cytology. Thus, it is unclear if these
changes are associated with smoking alone or with the development of
smoking-induced lung disease.
It is likely that our knowledge of the different molecular events
involved in lung carcinogenesis, their usual sequence, their biologic
consequences, and their prognostic meaning will advance significantly
in the near future. This will allow the better definition of extremely
high-risk individuals, as well as new and earlier endpoints for treatment.
Other than smoking cessation, we have no validated interventions for
premalignancy in the lung. Promising new approaches to the treatment
of bronchial premalignancy, including local ablative measures, dietary
modification, and chemopreventive agents, need to be developed and
validated.
