<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Focusing diagnostics and therapeutics on those most likely to benefit is a key to successful intervention&nbsp;at both the public health and clinical levels. The translational goal of the Spivack laboratory is to identify individuals at particularly high risk for lung malignancy, and selected non-malignant lung diseases, upon whom to focus smoking/toxin exposure cessation (primary prevention), chemoprevention (secondary prevention), and early disease detection efforts (disease screening, tertiary prevention).</p>
<p>The laboratory is currently exploring individual Gene x Environment signatures as susceptibility markers by exploring quantitative gene (mRNA) expression phenotypes, and the DNA sequence, methylation, microRNA, and other epigenetic features potentially underlying these expression phenotypes, <em>in vitro</em> and in human populations. This is performed in the setting of defined tobacco, diet, and other exposures. There are both mechanistic and translational components to the studies.&nbsp;</p>
<p><br /><strong>Mechanistically</strong>, the role of epigenetic variation in promoter regions in the 5' and 3' regulatory regions of carcinogenesis and oxidant pathway genes is being explored <em>in vitro</em>, using human genomic DNA reporter constructs, and native gene regulation models. High resolution technologies include the realtime quantitation of native mRNA and microRNA by the laboratory's RNA-specific strategy (<em>patented</em>); the&nbsp;tagged-bisulfite genomic sequencing strategy to determine single base resolution CpG methylation status (tBGS, <em>patented</em>);&nbsp;&nbsp;an experimental strategy for assaying microRNA binding to mRNA, for determining the role of miRNA in candidate gene regulation&nbsp;(<em>patented</em>); and evaluation of functional consequences of DNA&nbsp;methylation detail, using a novel patch reporter construct (<em>patented</em>).&nbsp; A new method to engineer methyl-cytosines into the epigenome has recently been developed.</p>
<p>Whole (epi)genome approaches to identify molecular events unique to lung cancer&nbsp;are being completed, which will represent one of the initial cross-platform 'omics level discovery examinations of&nbsp;lung&nbsp;tissues.&nbsp; The execution of each individual discovery platform involves&nbsp;expert local collaborators and cores&nbsp;in (epi)genetics and genomics, and the "integromics" is critically reliant on Einstein strengths in informatics and biostatistical analyses.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>Translationally</strong>, human lung carcinogenesis biomarkers are being established by pairing laser capture microdissected lung with several unique, non-invasively collected surrogate specimens developed in the laboratory. These include mRNA expression signatures from brush-exfoliated buccal mucosa cells, microRNAs detected in exhaled breath condensate representing first reports for a new exhaled airway biomarker class, and exhaled metabolomic signatures. These airway-derived specimens continue to accrue from a sampling (currently n&gt;1000) of a population assembled in a lung cancer case-control context.&nbsp; The specimens are being studied with a view toward developing non-invasive assays in populations.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The overall aim is to develop informative non-invasive risk profiling, preventive, and early disease detection strategies for the lung in human populations.</p>
