Abstract

Background

Turcot's syndrome is characterized clinically by the concurrence of a primary brain tumor and multiple colorectal adenomas. We attempted to define the syndrome at the molecular level.

Methods

Fourteen families with Turcot's syndrome identified in two registries and the family originally described by Turcot and colleagues were studied. Germ-line mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene characteristic of familial adenomatous polyposis were evaluated, as well as DNA replication errors and germ-line mutations in nucleotide mismatch-repair genes characteristic of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. In addition, a formal risk analysis for brain tumors in familial adenomatous polyposis was performed with a registry data base.

Results

Genetic abnormalities were identified in 13 of the 14 registry families. Germ-line APC mutations were detected in 10. The predominant brain tumor in these 10 families was medulloblastoma (11 of 14 patients, or 79 percent), and the relative risk of cerebellar medulloblastoma in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis was 92 times that in the general population (95 percent confidence interval, 29 to 269; P<0.001). In contrast, the type of brain tumor in the other four families was glioblastoma multiforme. The glioblastomas and colorectal tumors in three of these families and in the original family studied by Turcot had replication errors characteristic of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. In addition, germ-line mutations in the mismatch-repair gene hMLH1 or hPMS2 were found in two families.

Conclusions

The association between brain tumors and multiple colorectal adenomas can result from two distinct types of germ-line defects: mutation of the APC gene or mutation of a mismatch-repair gene. Molecular diagnosis may contribute to the appropriate care of affected patients.

Article

In 1959, Turcot and colleagues described two teenaged siblings with numerous adenomatous polyps of the colorectum in whom malignant tumors of the central nervous system developed.1 One patient had a medulloblastoma involving the spinal cord (the brain was not examined at autopsy) and adenocarcinomas of the sigmoid colon and rectum. His sister had a cerebral glioblastoma multiforme and a pituitary adenoma. Ten years earlier, Crail had described a patient with adenomatous polyposis, medulloblastoma of the brain stem, and papillary carcinoma of the thyroid gland,2 but the eponym “Turcot's syndrome” denotes the syndrome of colorectal polyposis and a primary tumor of the central nervous system. More than 120 cases resembling those of Turcot and Crail have been reported.3,4 They encompass a broad spectrum of colorectal findings, from a single adenoma to typical adenomatous polyposis, as well as various histopathologic types of central nervous system tumors. The mode of inheritance of Turcot's syndrome is controversial; some authors support autosomal recessive inheritance, and others an autosomal dominant pattern.3-9

Two major inherited syndromes with colorectal neoplasia can now be characterized at the molecular genetic level: familial adenomatous polyposis and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (or Lynch syndrome). In familial adenomatous polyposis there is a germ-line alteration of the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene10-18; mutations of the gene can be detected in about 80 percent of families with familial adenomatous polyposis.17 The condition has an autosomal dominant inheritance, but up to one third of cases appear without a positive family history.19 Typically, hundreds to thousands of colorectal adenomas develop in familial adenomatous polyposis, although in some families only small numbers occur.20 A variety of benign and malignant extracolonic manifestations have been reported in this condition.7,21-30

In hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, a germ-line mutation occurs in one of a group of genes involved in DNA nucleotide mismatch repair, including hMSH2 (human mutS homologue 2),31-34 hMLH1 (human mutL homologue 1),35-37 and hPMS1 and hPMS2 (human postmeiotic segregation 1 and 2).38 The DNA in cancers of patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer has characteristic errors of replication, also termed microsatellite instability, that are due to the uncorrected mispairing of nucleotides and resultant misalignment of DNA strands.39-42 This condition, like familial adenomatous polyposis, is autosomal dominant, but it is difficult to recognize clinically because the colorectal and extracolonic cancers are not distinctive.43,44

Previous genetic analysis of a few patients with Turcot's syndrome has not revealed the molecular pathogenesis.45-53 We therefore evaluated 14 families and one of the patients originally described by Turcot and colleagues1 for genetic evidence of familial adenomatous polyposis and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. We also carried out a formal risk analysis for brain tumors in a registry of patients with familial adenomatous polyposis. Our findings have implications for the care of patients as well as the classification of the diseases.

Methods

Study Patients

We studied 14 families that each included a patient with a primary brain tumor and either multiple colorectal adenomas or a family history of adenomatous polyposis (Figure 1Figure 1Association between the Change in Body Weight after the Age of 25 and the Risk of Hip Fracture. and Table 1Table 1Clinical Characteristics of the Study Patients with Turcot's Syndrome.). (When two members of the same family had brain tumors, they were designated A and B, as shown in Figure 1 and Table 1.) A 15th family was identified, but specimens were not available for study. The families were identified through 1993 from the Bowel Tumor Working Group Registry at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore and the Familial Gastrointestinal Cancer Registry at Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto. Adenomatous polyposis was defined by the presence of more than 100 colorectal adenomas.54 Hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer was defined according to the criteria of the International Collaborative Group.55

The Hopkins registry contained 368 families with adenomatous polyposis, 102 with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, and 517 with familial aggregation of colorectal adenomas and carcinomas. Eleven families with Turcot's syndrome were identified (Families 1 through 8, 11, 13, and 14). Peripheral-blood leukocytes were obtained for the analysis of mutations by venipuncture from the family member with a brain tumor or from another affected member after informed consent was given. Six of the patients (Patients 1A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 8, and 11) have been described previously.53,56,57 The Toronto registry included 230 families, among which 4 with Turcot's syndrome were identified. A sample of peripheral blood was obtained from three (Families 9, 10, and 12), but not from Family 15. Two families (Families 9 and 12) have been described previously.58,59

The Family Described by Turcot et Al.

The two siblings described by Turcot et al. were identified in the pathology records of l'Hôtel-Dieu de Québec and l'Hôpital de l'Enfant-Jésus in Quebec from the dates reported in the original publication.1 A review of the histopathologic sections confirmed the published findings, except for the presence at autopsy in Subject 2 of a 3-cm hepatic adenoma not described in the case report. The photographs of the colorectal specimens1 were subjected to image processing (Adobe Photoshop, Mountain View, Calif.). Subject 1 had 8 large polyps (2 to 5 cm) and about 33 small polyps (0.5 to 1 cm) in the descending and sigmoid colon. Subject 2 had 6 large polyps and about 17 small polyps in the cecum, ascending colon, and proximal transverse colon. The total number of colorectal polyps could not be ascertained. No “microadenomas” of the type seen in familial adenomatous polyposis were identified histopathologically in the colorectal mucosa of either subject. No affected member of the family was known to be living.

Molecular Genetic Analysis

The germ-line status of the APC gene, which is mutated in familial adenomatous polyposis, was determined in peripheral-blood-leukocyte DNA from at least one affected member of all 14 study families. The APC gene was analyzed by a ribonuclease (RNase) protection assay (reported previously for Families 2, 5, 6, 7, and 10),16 by an in vitro synthesized-protein assay,17 or by cloning and sequencing of the entire coding region of the APC gene.11

The APC gene in the medulloblastoma of Patient 1B was analyzed with DNA from cryostat sections to minimize contamination by nonneoplastic cells.60 We used an in vitro synthesized-protein assay in this analysis.17

Replication errors in DNA from brain and colorectal tumors were identified by the analysis of simple repeated genomic sequences (microsatellites) isolated from routine histopathological sections (Table 2Table 2Molecular Genetic Characterization of Turcot's Syndrome.).61 DNA from the surgical specimens of the subjects originally described with Turcot's syndrome1 was unsatisfactory because the specimens had been fixed in Bouin's solution; only the slides of specimens obtained at autopsy from Subject 2 could be analyzed. Polymerase-chain-reaction (PCR) methods for the amplification of microsatellite sequences were used as described.39,61 The minimal criterion for an error in replication was that at least one of the five markers tested contain a band in the tumor PCR product that was not found in the nonneoplastic PCR product. Because sporadic tumors positive for replication errors do occur,39,62-65 the finding of such an error in more than one tumor from a single patient was taken as evidence of a germ-line, rather than a somatic, mutation of a mismatch-repair gene.

The germ-line status of the hMSH2, hMLH1, hPMS1, and hPMS2 genes, which are found to be mutated in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, was determined from RNA of peripheral-blood lymphocytes. An in vitro synthesized-protein assay and direct sequencing of the products of reverse transcription and PCR amplification were used as described.33,34,37,38

Risk Analysis

To determine whether familial adenomatous polyposis predisposes patients to brain tumors, patients and their first-degree relatives enrolled in the Hopkins registry were compared with the general U.S. population, as represented in the surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) data.26,29,30 None of the families in the registry were initially identified because of a proband who presented with a brain tumor. With a computer program for cohort analysis,66 person-years at risk were calculated according to age-, race-, and sex-specific categories, from birth to 89 years of age, in subsequent five-year periods of observation to account for any trends over time. The expected numbers of brain tumors (classifications 1910 through 1919 of the International Classification of Diseases, 9th Revision [ICD-9]) and cerebellar medulloblastomas (ICD-9 classifications 1916 and M94703) were calculated by multiplying the number of patient-years by the corresponding incidence rates obtained from the SEER data.67 The ratio of the number of observed cases to the expected number of cases was computed with a test of significance and a calculation of the 95 percent confidence intervals with the assumption of a Poisson distribution.

Results

Phenotypes of the Study Families

Twelve families met the clinical criteria for familial adenomatous polyposis54 (Families 1 through 12 in Figure 1 and Table 1). In all but one family (Family 12), more than one member was affected. Extraintestinal lesions included those typical of familial adenomatous polyposis, but one patient (Patient 12) and his affected sister had café au lait spots, which are not associated with familial adenomatous polyposis but have been reported with Turcot's syndrome.3 Two families (Families 13 and 14) had colorectal adenomas and carcinoma without evidence of polyposis, and Family 14 met the criteria for hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.55

Germ-Line Status of the APC Gene

We studied the APC gene in 14 families that included at least one affected member (Table 2). Among the 12 families classified as having polyposis, mutations were found in 10 (83 percent). All the mutated genes encoded truncated variants of the APC protein (Figure 2Figure 2Germ-Line and Somatic Alterations in the APC Gene.), as is true of the vast majority of patients with familial adenomatous polyposis.15,17 The mutations were heterogeneous in type and location (Table 2), and there was no association between specific mutations and the development of brain tumors. Two families with polyposis (Families 5 and 12) and both families without polyposis (Families 13 and 14) had no identifiable germ-line APC mutations.

Somatic Status of the APC Gene in a Brain Tumor

The medulloblastoma from Patient 1B, who had a germ-line mutation of the APC gene, was studied for a somatic mutation in the allele inherited from her unaffected parent. The in vitro synthesized-protein assay showed no wild-type APC gene product (Figure 2, lane M1B). This finding, which indicated that both copies of the gene had been inactivated, favored a direct role for the APC alterations in the pathogenesis of the brain tumor.

Phenotypic Characteristics of Patients with Germ-Line APC Mutations

In the 10 families with identified germ-line APC mutations, medulloblastoma predominated (in 11 patients, or 79 percent). Two patients had anaplastic astrocytomas, and one had an ependymoma. In 4 of the 10 families, two members had brain tumors. The clinical presentations of the patients varied. The brain tumor presented after the diagnosis of polyposis in four patients, but in six patients it was identified before polyposis was found. It is noteworthy that the brain tumors in Patients 3A and 3B in the same family were dramatically different: Patient 3A had an anaplastic astrocytoma at the age of 48, and Patient 3B had a medulloblastoma at the age of 6. The brain tumor was the cause of death in seven of the eight patients who died.

Risk Analysis for Brain Tumors

To determine whether familial adenomatous polyposis predisposes patients to brain tumors, we used risk analysis to compare families with familial adenomatous polyposis with the general population. Of the 1390 subjects in the Hopkins registry (with 18,673 patient-years of follow-up), there were 604 white male subjects, 645 white female subjects, 76 black male subjects, and 65 black female subjects. The registry revealed five brain tumors in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis and their at-risk relatives during the study period: three medulloblastomas (in Patients 1A, 3B, and 6), one glioblastoma multiforme (in Patient 5), and one ependymoma (in Patient 7). No brain tumors were found among the black subjects.

The relative risk of brain tumor (Table 3Table 3Risk Analysis for Brain Tumors in Familial Adenomatous Polyposis.) was increased by a factor of 23 among the families with familial adenomatous polyposis in the group from birth to 29 years of age (P<0.001), and by a factor of 7 in the group as a whole (P<0.001). The corresponding relative risks of cerebellar medulloblastoma were 99 (P<0.001) and 92 (P<0.001), respectively. The absolute lifetime risk of brain tumor, however, was low: 1 in 3735 patient-years.

Replication Errors in Brain and Colorectal Tumors

DNA replication errors characteristic of the abnormal mismatch repair in tumors of patients with hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer were sought in 25 tumors from 10 patients with familial adenomatous polyposis and 5 affected relatives, representing nine families in the registry (Table 2 and Figure 3Figure 3Replication Errors in Brain and Colorectal Tumors (Upper Panels) and Germ-Line Mutations in Mismatch-Repair Genes (Lower Panels).). In three patients the tumors had replication errors (Patients 12, 13, and 14), and in each there were at least two such tumors. Intertumoral heterogeneity of replication errors was found in two patients (Patients 13 and 14): they had colonic adenomas without replication errors, as well as colorectal tumors with such errors (an adenoma and four carcinomas). The microsatellite instability was less pronounced in the glioblastomas than in the colorectal neoplasms. None of the tumors from families with germ-line APC mutations had DNA replication errors.

Both the glioblastoma multiforme and a rectal adenoma from the autopsy of Subject 2 described by Turcot et al.1 showed errors in DNA replication characteristic of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.

Germ-Line Status of DNA Mismatch-Repair Genes

Analysis of the hMSH2, hMLH1, hPMS1, and hPMS2 mismatch-repair genes, which are mutated in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, was carried out in the three patients with tumors that contained replication errors. Two had germ-line alterations: the hPMS2 gene was mutated in Patient 12, and hMLH1 was mutated in Patient 14 (Table 2 and Figure 3). No germ-line APC mutations were detected in these three patients.

Phenotypes of Patients with Brain and Colorectal Tumors Containing Replication Errors

The brain tumors in the three patients with tumors containing replication errors differed histopathologically from the brain tumors in patients with germ-line APC mutations. All three patients had glioblastoma multiforme, which was not found in any of the 10 families with identified APC gene mutations (P = 0.004). The glioblastoma presented before the colorectal neoplasms in two patients and afterward in one. The colorectal phenotypes and family histories of all three patients were atypical for familial adenomatous polyposis (Table 1). Patient 12 had café au lait spots.

One patient died of glioblastoma, but all three patients with DNA-replication errors had unusually long survival: Patient 13 lived for 36 months after diagnosis, and the other two remained alive 14 and 6 years after diagnosis. This long survival stands in contrast to the two-year survival rate of about 5 percent and the median survival of about eight months in the usual patients with glioblastoma multiforme.68

Discussion

Our results indicate that the syndrome of primary brain tumors and multiple colorectal adenomas, which has previously been termed Turcot's syndrome, can be associated with two different types of germ-line genetic defects: mutation of the APC gene that is usually found in familial adenomatous polyposis, or mutation of a mismatch-repair gene that is usually found in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. Moreover, we found molecular evidence of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer in the family originally described by Turcot and colleagues.

The phenotypes of familial adenomatous polyposis and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer have been regarded as distinctive, hence the descriptor “nonpolyposis” in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer. However, attenuated forms of familial adenomatous polyposis with small numbers of adenomas have been reported in families with mutations in the 5' portion of the APC gene.20 Our findings also demonstrate the difficulty of distinguishing between these two genetically distinctive diseases on purely clinical grounds.3 Large numbers of colorectal adenomas, characteristic of familial adenomatous polyposis, occurred in two families that did not have the clinical criteria of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (Family 12 and the family originally described by Turcot et al.). Nonetheless, in both families there was evidence of a germ-line mutation in a DNA mismatch-repair gene, which is characteristic of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, rather than the APC mutation typical of familial adenomatous polyposis.

Thus, patients with Turcot's syndrome can be classified by testing for mutations of the APC gene and for mutant DNA mismatch-repair genes in peripheral-blood lymphocytes, and by evaluating tumor DNA for replication errors. The vast majority of cases should be definable by molecular genetics (13 of 14 families in our series; 95 percent confidence interval, 66 to 100 percent). This molecular approach will clarify the phenotypic spectrums of familial adenomatous polyposis and hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, which have been uncertain because of variations in the number and size of colonic adenomas.3 Our findings indicate that most patients with Turcot's syndrome who have small numbers of colorectal neoplasms, colorectal carcinoma in childhood or adolescence, glioblastoma, or café au lait spots3,48,69 have hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer rather than familial adenomatous polyposis.

This study sheds light on the mechanisms of tumorigenesis associated with the two different types of germ-line alterations. In patients with a germ-line mutation of APC, inactivation of the second copy of the gene appears to be a factor in brain tumorigenesis, as evidenced by Patient 1B. In a previous study, no mutation in the second copy of APC was found in the brain tumors of three patients with familial adenomatous polyposis,52 but this result could have been due to the technical difficulty of identifying alterations in the large APC gene. In addition, the markedly increased risk of brain tumor in our pedigrees with familial adenomatous polyposis (increased by a factor of 23 in the age range of birth to 29 years) is further strong evidence that the occurrence of brain tumors in familial adenomatous polyposis is not merely coincidental.70 Thus, brain tumors, especially medulloblastoma, for which the relative risk was 92, represent a pleiotropic manifestation of the germ-line APC mutation. Specific germ-line APC mutations do not appear to be associated with the development of brain tumors, as evidenced by the striking heterogeneity of the APC mutations in our patients (Table 2).

Genetic characterization of the two inherited conditions has implications for patient care. Symptoms or signs suggesting central nervous system tumor require prompt and careful investigation in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis, hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer, or multiple tumors with replication errors, and in at-risk offspring or siblings. At-risk members of families with familial adenomatous polyposis who present with brain tumors can be tested for a mutant APC gene17,18; they will require sigmoidoscopic surveillance for colorectal adenomas and colectomy if adenomas develop. We recommend vigilant neurologic evaluation of families with familial adenomatous polyposis in which a member has a brain tumor, because of familial clustering: 40 percent of the families we studied had two members with brain tumors.

Patients with brain tumors who have hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer or multiple tumors with replication errors require a different type of care than do patients with familial adenomatous polyposis. Data supporting firm recommendations are incomplete. The relative and absolute risks of brain tumors in patients with germ-line mutations of the various mismatch-repair genes are unknown.44 Routine genetic testing is not yet feasible. Nonetheless, complete colonoscopy, rather than sigmoidoscopy, should be used for surveillance, because of the predisposition to right-sided cancers in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.43 Surveillance of high-risk extracolonic sites in hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer (i.e., the endometrium in women44) may also be advisable.

The underlying germ-line genetic alteration may favorably influence the prognosis of patients with glioblastoma multiforme and colorectal neoplasia. Our series was too small to permit us to draw firm conclusions, but the length of survival of the four patients with glioblastoma was exceptional, with a minimum of three years until death. Long survival in similar cases has been reported.71 Improved stage-specific survival from colorectal cancer may be a feature of hereditary nonpolyposis colorectal cancer.43 The extensive genomic alterations due to microsatellite instability may modify the behavior of various neoplasms and also elicit an improved host resistance and response.
