OvarianClearCellCarcinoma
TCGAidentifiedmutationsintheAT-richinteractivedomain 1A(ARID1A) in46–57%of clear cell carcinomas (141,142). ARID1A encodes a component of the SWItch/sucrose nonfermentable (SWI/SNF) chromatin remodeling complex, which alters nucleosome structure, enhances DNA accessibility, and is required for the transcriptional activation of genes normally repressed by densely packed chromatin. The SWI/SNF complex allows DNA-bindingproteinstoaccesstheDNA.TheARID1Aproteinhastwodomains.TheARID domain is a DNA-binding domain specifically binding AT-rich DNA sequences. The C­terminusdomainstimulatestheglucocorticoidreceptor–dependenttranscription.Thereby,the ARID1A protein may recruit the SWI/SNF complex to specific DNA sequences. ARID1A mutations may cause abnormalities in DNA transcription, replication and repair in endometriosis-associatedovariancarcinomas,thatis,clearcellcarcinomaandendometrioid carcinoma (141). Mutations in ARID1A have been noted in clear cell carcinomas and adjacentatypicalendometriosis,butnotindistantendometrioticlesions(141).
Furthermore, specific for endometriosis-associated carcinomas are high iron levels that induceoxidativestress. Hence,stressresponsegenesare oftenhighly expressedinpatients withclearcellcarcinomawhohadendometriosis,especiallyinthosewithstagesIIIandIV clearcellcarcinomas(143).
Phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate3-kinasecatalyticsubunitα(PIK3CA)mutationshave beenidentifiedin 33–50%ofclearcellcarcinomas anddeletionofphosphataseand tensin homolog(PTEN)in20%(144,145).ProteinkinaseB2(AKT2)geneamplificationwasseen in certain clear cell carcinomas (146). Thereby, the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathwayappearsfrequentlyalteredinclearcellcarcinoma.
OvarianEndometrioidCarcinoma
Similarto clear cell carcinomas,mutationsofARID1Ahavebeendetected in 30% of endometrioidcarcinomas,ofPIK3CAandPTENin20%,andofPPP2R1Ain10%(141).
Unlikeclearcellcarcinoma,cateninbeta-1(CTNNB1),alsoknownasβ-catenin,ismutated in30%ofendometrioidcancers.β-Cateninisabifunctionalprotein.Itisinvolvedincell
adhesion formation and maintenance and in gene transcription through the integration1/Wingless(Wnt)signalingpathway.Underphysiologic conditions,CTNNB1is mainly located at the cell membrane. Most mutations of CTNNB1 are in exon 3, which encodes the serine–threonine phosphorylation sites. Hypophosphorylated CTNNB1 is not degraded and accumulates in the cytoplasm and cell nucleus. CTNNB1 degradation is controlled by the so-called destruction complex, which comprises adenomatous polyposis coli(APC)andAXIN-1and2(147).Ifthoseproteins are mutated and inactive, CTNNB1
will not be degraded. The accumulated CTNNB1 in the cell nucleus combines with other transcription factors and activates gene transcription. In the mouse model, inactivation of bothpathways, theWntand thePI-3K pathway,resultsin endometriosisand endometrioid cancer(148).
MucinousOvarianCancer
Mucinousovariancancersarerare,comprisingonlyabout3%ofepithelialovariancancers, andhavethusbeendifficulttostudy.Inupto75%ofmucinousovariancancers,Kirsten
ratsarcoma(KRAS)mutationshavebeenidentified(149).KRASmutationsappeartobe presentinmucinouscystadenomasandmucinousborderlinetumorsaswell,supporting thehypothesisthatmucinouscystadenoma,mucinousborderlinetumors,andmucinous ovariancancersformacontinuumthatallowsprogression(150,151).
SmallCellCarcinomaoftheOvary—HypercalcemicType(SCCOHT)
Thisrareovariancancerofyoungadults(152)hasbeenshowntobeassociatedwithsomatic andgermlineSMARCA4 mutations (SWI/SNF related, matrix associated, actin dependent regulatorofchromatin,subfamilya,member4)(153155).SMARCA4isalsoknownasthe transcriptionactivatorBRG1.ItispartoftheATP-dependentchromatinremodelingcomplex SWI/SNF(switch/sucrosenon-fermentable)andthoughttoregulatetranscriptionbyaltering chromatinstructureandmakinggenesmoreaccessibletothetranscriptionmachinery.BRG1 mutations mostly affect the ATPase sequences of the ATP-binding pocket or the DNA­bindingsurfacechangingenhancersandpromotors.ThereisevidencethatBRG1mutations resultinmodulationofmyelocytomatosis(myc)expression(156).
HereditaryOvarianCancer
Approximately 8–13% of ovarian cancers are hereditary. A significant proportion of thesearecausedbygermlinemutationsinthebreastcancergenes1and2(BRCA1-2), but also other components of the homologous recombination pathway and the DNA mismatch repair system. In the following, we describe different germline mutations
includingthosewiththus-farinconsistentevidence.
BRCA1andBRCA2
Inherited BRCA1 pathogenic variants confer a 20- to 40-fold increased risk of ovarian cancer, that is, the risk of developing ovarian cancer by age 70 is 39–46% (157160) compared to a general population lifetime risk for ovarian cancer of 1–2%. Inherited BRCA2pathogenicvariantsconfera10-to20-foldincreasedriskofovariancancer,thatis, theriskforovariancancerbytheage70is10–27%(157160).BRCA1-2 playacritical role in maintaining genomic integrity. Under physiologic conditions, DNA double-stand breaks are repaired by RAD51-dependent homologous recombination (HR; see section on double-strand break repair above) in which both BRCA1 and BRCA2, are involved.
Homologous recombination implies the use of homologous sequences elsewhere in the genome, preferably from the sister chromatid, as a template to facilitate DNA repair in S phase.BeyondtheirroleinHR,BRCA1-2proteinsinthecytoplasmhavebeenfoundtobe criticalintheregulationofcelldivision.
About 500 different mutations have been identified for BRCA1 and about 300 for BRCA2.BRCA1-2 mutationsshow a huge diversityin various populationsandmany have
notyetbeenshowntohaveclinicalsignificance.Inthegeneralpopulation,theBRCA1-2 mutation frequency is about 1:300 to 1:800. In certain populations that have been founded by a small ancestral group, such as the Ashkenazi Jews, French Canadians, and Icelanders, specific mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 are more frequent; these specific mutations are the so-called founder mutations. In the United States, 1 in 40 AshkenaziJewscarriesoneofthreefoundermutations(161,162):
(i) 5382insC,whichoriginatedfromacommonEuropeanancestor400to500years
ago. This mutation results in a C-terminally truncated BRCA1 protein. It has been
hypothesizedthatthedeletionoftheBRCTtransactivationdomainsmayleadtoloss intranscriptionalactivationofseveralgenes,whicheventuallymayresultinlossof apoptoticcelldeathandtherebycontributetocancerdevelopment(163)(Fig.1.5).
(ii) 185delAG,anotherBRCA1foundermutation,showsafrequencyof16.4%inthe
AshkenaziJewishandIndianpopulations.Twonucleotidesaredeletedinexon2of BRCA1, which results in a functionally null, truncated protein which is 39 amino acidslong(Fig.1.5).
(iii) C61GisamissenseandfoundermutationinthePolishpopulation.Incontrastto
theaforementionedtwofoundermutations,thismutationdoesnotresultintruncated BRCA1proteinsbutinsteadinthefulllengthBRCA1proteinwithapointmutation. This mutation leads to an alteration of the zinc-ligating residues in the really
interestingnewgene(RING)domain(Fig.1.5).
Similarly, founder mutations have been described in BRCA2. 6174delT is a common
BRCA2mutationintheAshkenaziJewishpopulation.Itisaframeshiftmutation,which producesatruncated protein with only 2,002 amino acids insteadof3,418.Thistruncated proteinloses the BRCrepeat domains, DNA binding,C-terminalRAD51bindingdomains, andthenuclearlocalizationsignal.ThisresultsindefectiveDNArepairmachinerywhichis unabletoformRAD51fociinthecellnucleus.Reversionmutationof6174delTrestoresthe openreadingframeofBRCA2andhasbeenshowntobeamechanismofpoly-ADPribose­polymerase (PARP)-inhibitor resistance (164). If a patient is heterozygous for both
BRCA1andBRCA2mutations,theovariancancerphenotypeisgenerallythoughttobe similarto those with BRCA1 mutation only,although there are some data to suggest that ovarian cancermay develop at an earlier age and the course of disease may be moresevere(165,166).
RAD51C/D
HumanRADproteinsarehighlyconservedandshowhighsimilaritytoproteinsinyeastand bacteria.RAD51C(167)andRAD51D(168)aretwooffiveRAD51 paralogs,which areall required for efficient DNA double-strand break repair by homologous recombination. RAD51C and RAD51D form a complex with other proteins, which is critical early in the processofhomologouspairingbetweensingle-anddouble-strandedDNA(Figs.1.4and1.5). Theriskofovariancancerisincreasedtwo-tothreefoldifagermlinemutationoccurs.
BRIP1(BRCA1-InteractingProtein1)
BRCA1-interactingprotein1(BRIP1)(169) encodes the Fanconi anemia group J protein, a helicasethatinteractswithBRCA1viaitsBRCTrepeatsandisimportantinthedouble-strand breakrepairfunctionofBRCA1(Figs.1.4and1.5).BRIP1germlinemutationincreasesthe
riskforovariancancertwo-tothreefold.
MMRProteins(MismatchRepairProteins)
Germlinemutationsinthemismatchrepairsystem(Lynchsyndrome)increasetherisk forovarian cancer5-to 10-fold (see section on hereditary endometrial cancer). Elevated
ovariancancerriskisestablishedforMLH1(5–20%),MSH2(10–38%),andMSH6(1–11%), whileitisnotestablishedforPMS2(100,102,170).
Gene mutations that show inconsistent or only insufficient evidence to support increasedovariancancerriskareasfollows:
ATM(AtaxiaTelangiectasiaMutated)
Ataxiatelangiectasiamutated(ATM)isaserine/threonineproteinkinaseandinparticulara DNA damage response kinase, which is recruited by DNA double-strand breaks. It phosphorylates key DNA damage checkpoint proteins, including BRCA1 and Checkpoint kinase2(CHEK2),andtherebyinitiatescellcyclearrest.
NBN(Nibrin)
Nibrin (NBN) is involved in double-strand break repair and is a member of the MRN complex(MRE11/RAD50/NBN) double-strand break repair complex. NBN mutations may
lead to the Nijmegen breakage syndrome characterized by DNAdouble-strand breaks and chromosomalinstability.Ithasaroleinthemicrohomology-mediatedendjoining(MMEJ) repairofdouble-strandbreaks,whichisinherentlyinaccurate;thereby,theoverexpressionof NBNmaygiverisetocancerdevelopment.
PALB2(PartnerandLocalizerofBRCA2)
PartnerandlocalizerofBRCA2(PALB2)permitsstableintranuclearlocalizationofBRCA2. Itbindssingle-strandedDNAanddirectlyinteractswiththerecombinaseRAD51(171).
TP53(GeneEncodingp53TumorProtein)
TherehasbeenanunresolveddisputewhethergermlineTP53pathogenicvariantspredispose toovariancancer.Fewcaseshavebeenreported.Theevidencethusfarisinconsistent.
Othergenes,includingCheckpointkinase2(CHEK2),atumorsuppressorgenethatencodes aDNAdamageresponsekinase,donotappeartoincreasetheriskofovariancancer.
Ovarian cancers with germline or somatic BRCA1-2 mutations respond better to platinum-based chemotherapy because the tumor cells are not able to repair intrastrand crosslinks formed by crosslinking platinum agents. They have also been foundtorespondtotreatmentwithpoly-ADPribose-polymerase(PARP)inhibitors.The
poly(ADP-ribose)polymerasefamilyincludes17knownmembers.PARP1isthefounding member. Once activated, PARP1 synthesizes poly-ADP-ribose chains that are covalently bound to chromatin proteins and the PARP proteins themselves. Thereby, DNA repair proteins are rapidly recruited. PARP proteins contribute to a number of DNA repair pathways; the base excision repair has been most extensively studied. The base excision repairisinvolvedinrepairingsingle-strandbreaksor“nicks”intheDNA.
About 104 single-strand breaks (SSBs) occur every day. In the absence of PARP proteins, these SSBs persist. If gaps in a single strand are encountered by the DNA
replication fork, it may degenerate into double-strand breaks (DSBs). In the absence of BRCA1,these DSBs cannot be repaired, the replication forks cannot be restarted and they collapse(172,173).
PARP inhibition is the first example of targeting a nonessential DNA repair protein aloneto treatcancer. It has been described with the concept of synthetic lethality,which
wasoriginallyusedinthemodelorganismDrosophilabyCalvinBridgesin1922(174). In 1946,Dobzhansky(175)coinedtheterm“syntheticlethality.”Syntheticlethalitydescribes
therequirementfortwoindependentandcomplementarygenetichitsthataretolerated individuallybutresultincelldeathifoccurringtogether.
More recently, possible mechanisms of PARP-inhibitor resistance have been described. SomaticreversionmutationsinBRCA1-2appearcriticalandwerefirstreportedin2008,in pancreaticcancerandovariancancercelllines(164,176).Secondarymutationswerefoundto restore the BRCA1-2 open reading frame. These secondary mutations were more
frequently detected in ovarian cancers, which had been exposed to multiple chemotherapies,especiallyplatinum-resistantepithelialovariancancers.Mostsecondary
BRCA1-2mutationstakeplaceafterplatinumchemotherapy;thusfar,thereareonlylimited reports of secondary mutations after PARP inhibitor treatment. In autopsy studies, many distinct reversion events in the same patient have been identified, contributing to the intrapatientheterogeneityofovariancancer(177).
OvarianSexCordStromalTumors
STK11(Serine/ThreonineKinase11)LKB1(LiverKinaseB1)
Serine/threonine kinase 11 (STK11), or also called liver kinase B1 (LKB1), is directly
upstreamoftheadenosinemonophosphate–activatedproteinkinase(AMPK)andtherebya keyelementinthe regulation of cell metabolism. When nutrients are scarce, STK11/LKB1 suppressesgrowthandproliferation.Furthermore,itisinvolvedinmaintainingcellpolarity. With both functions, it acts as a tumor suppressor. Germline mutations have been associatedwithPeutz6–Jeghers7syndrome(PJS)(179,180).PJSisanautosomaldominant syndrome of variable penetrance that is characterized by intestinal polyps and mucocutaneous pigmentations as well as other neoplasms. PJS carriers have a two- to
threefoldincreasedriskfordeveloping sex cord stromaltumors with annulartubules (SCTAT). The tumors are usually bilateral, benign tumors, and 50% are associated with hyperestrogenism. In fact, one-third of patients with SCTATs have Peutz–Jeghers syndrome.However,largerunilateralSCTATtumorsaremorelikelysporadic.
FOXL-2(ForkheadBoxProteinL2)
ForkheadboxproteinL2(FOXL-2)isatranscriptionfactorinvolvedinsexdetermination,
ovarian development and function, and suppression of development of the testes. It is requiredforgranulosacelldifferentiation.Itsdefiningmotifistheforkheadbox, 80to100 aminoacids,thatbindsDNA.Thismotifappearslikeabutterflyinstructureandistherefore called the winged helix. Amissense mutation in the FOXL2 gene (C134W) is found in
mostofthegranulosacelltumorsoftheadulttype,someofthethecomasandrarelyin juvenile-typegranulosacelltumors(180).
DICER1
DICER1 mutations in the RNase IIIb domain have been described in about 30% nonepithelial ovarian cancers, especially sex cord stromal tumors. They have been
describedinupto60%ofSertoli–Leydigcelltumors(181).ThereportedDICER1mutations havebeenfoundtochangethetumor’smicroRNAprocessingabilitieswithoutcausingitto lose them entirely. It was hypothesized that these mutations may shift miRNAs to an oncogenicpattern.
OvarianGermCellTumors
Theexactmolecularmechanismofthemostcommonbenignovariangermcelltumor, the mature teratoma or dermoid, is not known. The most accepted theory on its developmentinvolvesparthenogenetic,thatis,asexualwithoutmalegamete,activation ofoocytes.Thekaryotypeis46,XXinalmostallmatureteratomas,andtheyarediploidwith
maternal chromosomes alone. This is, as it were, a maternal phenomenon similar to the
complete paternal karyotype which results in a complete mole (see section on Gestational TrophoblasticDiseasebelow).
There are little data available on genetic alterations and molecular mechanisms of the tumorigenesisofmalignantgermcelltumors.Dysgerminomasareknowntodevelopfrom dysgeneticgonads,howevertheexactmechanismisunknown.Therehavebeenreportson miRNAoverexpression(182),DICERmutations,andKITamplification(183,184),aswellas raregeneticalterationsinTP53andKRAS.
CervicalCancer
SporadicCervicalCancer
Cervicalcancerisaclassicexampleofvirus-inducedcarcinogenesis.Inthe1970s,human
papillomavirus(HPV)wassuspectedtoplayaroleincervicalcancer.Thefirstexperiments tosearchforpapillomavirusincervical cancer were performed by Harald zur Hausen and colleaguesin1974(185),andthefirststudytodemonstratearoleforHPVinfectioninmild dysplasia was published in 1976 (186). In 1983, HPV16 was the first human papillomavirustypetobedirectlyisolatedfromcervicalcancerbiopsies(187). Shortly thereafter,HPV18 was isolated(188). The mechanism of the virus-induced carcinogenesis wasdefinedinsubsequentstudiesincludingthedescriptionofE6/E7incervicalcancercells and specific HPV deletions after integration into the host-cell DNA(189). The first large epidemiologicstudyofHPVinfectionwaspublishedin1987(190).
HPVisbelievedtoinducecarcinogenesisbyintegrationofitsgenomeintothehostcell genome.Thetwo primaryoncoproteinsofhigh-riskHPVaretheproteinsE6andE7, earlygene6and 7, indicating that these two proteins are expressed early in the HPV life cycle. E6 (early gene 6) interacts with a 100-kDa cellular protein, E6AP (E6-associated protein), which functions as a ubiquitin ligase. The E6/E6AP complex binds the tumor
suppressorTP53leadingtoitsrapidubiquitinationanddegradationthroughproteasomes.E7 bindstothehypophosphorylatedformofpRb(retinoblastoma)leadingtoitsdegradationvia the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and thereby promoting progression of the cell into S phase. The E7/Rb interaction mimics the CDK-mediated phosphorylation, and renders the cellindependentofanycellcyclecontrol,resultingindisinhibitedcellproliferation.
HereditaryCervicalCancer
Minimaldeviationadenocarcinomaoradenomamalignumisarareentityaccountingfor1– 3% of all cervical adenocarcinomas. Its development is not related to HPV but appears associatedwithsporadicSTK11(serine/threoninekinase11)mutations;itcanbeassociated
withPeutz–Jegherssyndrome(seesectiononSTK11above).
VulvarCancer
Sporadic
HPV-relatedvulvarcancersarepresumedtofollowasimilarpathogenesistoallotherHPV­related carcinomas of the lower anogenital tract as outlined for cervical cancer. HPV-
independentvulvarcancersfollowadifferentcarcinogenesis,butlittleisknownabout themolecularmechanisms.Inearlierstudies,allelicimbalancesandlossofheterozygosity
were frequently described in HPV-independent carcinomas (191). Furthermore, HPV­independentprecursorlesions,thatis,differentiatedvulvarintraepithelialneoplasia(dVIN), aswell as vulvarsquamouscell carcinomas arisingfrom dVIN, showahigh rate ofTP53 mutations.TP53mutationshavebeenfoundinupto70%ofcasesofLichensclerosus,60% ofdVIN,and80%ofvulvarcancers(192,193).
Cyclin-dependentkinaseinhibitor2A(CDKN2A) hasbeenreportedtobemutatedin upto 60%ofvulvarcancers(194),butnotinLichensclerosusordVIN(195).Otherstudieshave reported epigenetic changes including CDKN2A silencing by hypermethylation (196,197). The CDKN2A gene encodes for two proteins, p16INK4 (inhibitors of CDK4) and p14arf (alternatereadingframe),bothofwhicharetumorsuppressorgenes.p16inhibitsthecyclin­dependentkinases4and 6(CDK4and6),therebyactivatingpRb(retinoblastomaprotein), whichinturnblocksG1/Stransition.p14arfactivatesp53.

Nohereditaryformsofvulvarcancerareknown.
GestationalTrophoblasticDisease
SporadicGestationalTrophoblasticDisease
Complete hydatidiform moles are usually diploid and androgenetic in origin. Eighty percentresultfromtheduplicationofthehaploidgenomeofasinglesperm,andabout 20%fromdispermicfertilization.EitherwaythenuclearDNAispaternal,whileonlythe
mitochondrialDNA is of maternal origin. In contrast to complete moles, partialmolesare
almostalwaystriploid.Twospermfertilizeanormaloocyte,or,veryrarelyadiploidsperm fertilizesanormaloocyte.
No immunohistochemical or genetic markers are known that can help predict which gestational trophoblastic disease will persist. Thus, every patient with gestational trophoblastic disease needs clinical surveillance and monitoring of human chorionic gonadotropin(hCG)levels.Sincepostmolargestationaltrophoblasticneoplasiaisdiagnosed clinically and not pathologically,tissue is rarely available for genetic analysis, and where available,itreflectsthecausativepregnancy.
HereditaryGestationalTrophoblasticDisease
Recurrentmolesaccountfor2%ofallhydatidiformmoles.Someofthesemaybedueto a familial syndrome, the autosomal recessive familial recurrent hydatidiform mole syndrome (FRHM). These moles are biparental in genetic origin (diploid biparental complete hydatidiform moles [BiCHM]) in contrast to the usual androgenetic complete hydatidiformmoles(AnCHM).FRHMsyndromepredisposestopregnancylossandusually resultsinacompletemole.About55%ofthecasesarecausedbyamutationinNLRfamily pyrindomaincontaining7(NLRP7)(198201)andabout5%byaKHDC3Lmutation(KH domaincontaining3like,subcorticalmaternalcomplexmember)(202,203).
NLRP7 is a cytoplasmic protein that consists of an N-terminal pyrin domain (PYD), a NACHTdomain,aNACHT-associateddomain,andaC-terminalleucine-richrepeat(LRR) region.TheNACHTdomainisa highlyconserveddomainandfound inapoptotic proteins andproteinsregulatingmajorhistocompatibilitycomplexII(MHCII)transcription.Assuch, NLRP7isinvolvedinactivationofproinflammatorycaspasesandtheformationofso-called inflammasomes. The mechanism by which mutation in NLRP7 leads to a complete mole remains unknown. NLRP7 has no ortholog in mice, which makes studying its function difficult.ExpressionstudiesinhumansshowthatNLRP7ispresentinoocytesandallstages ofthepreimplantationembryo(204,205).KHDC3Lisspecificallyexpressedinoocytesand recentstudies suggestthat itmay functionas aregulatorofgenomicimprinting inoocytes (206).Whilethemajorityofwomenwithrecurrentandrogeneticcompletehydatidiform
moles(AnCHMs)benefitfrominvitrofertilization(IVF),womenwithFRHMwillhave anormalpregnancyonlythrougheggdonation.
