Intraperitoneal administration of ferric nitrilotriacetate initiates a Fenton reaction in renal proximal tubules of rodents that ultimately leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after repeated treatments. We performed high-resolution microarray comparative genomic hybridization to identify characteristics in the genomic profiles of this oxidative stress-induced rat RCCs. The results revealed extensive large-scale genomic alterations with a preference for deletions. Deletions and amplifications were numerous and sometimes fragmented, demonstrating that a Fenton reaction is a cause of such genomic alterations in vivo. Frequency plotting indicated that two of the most commonly altered loci corresponded to a Cdkn2a/2b deletion and a Met amplification. Tumor sizes were proportionally associated with Met expression and/or amplification, and clustering analysis confirmed our results. Furthermore, we developed a procedure to compare whole genomic patterns of the copy number alterations among different species based on chromosomal syntenic relationship. Patterns of the rat RCCs showed the strongest similarity to the human RCCs among five types of human cancers, followed by human malignant mesothelioma, an iron overload-associated cancer. Therefore, an iron-dependent Fenton chemical reaction causes large-scale genomic alterations during carcinogenesis, which may result in distinct genomic profiles. Based on the characteristics of extensive genome alterations in human cancer, our results suggest that this chemical reaction may play a major role during human carcinogenesis.","tracks":[{"project":"Allie","denotations":[{"id":"SS1_22952676_2_0","span":{"begin":343,"end":363},"obj":"expanded"},{"id":"SS2_22952676_2_0","span":{"begin":365,"end":368},"obj":"abbr"}],"relations":[{"id":"AE1_22952676_2_0","pred":"abbreviatedTo","subj":"SS1_22952676_2_0","obj":"SS2_22952676_2_0"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"SS1_22952676_2_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"},{"subj":"SS2_22952676_2_0","pred":"source","obj":"Allie"}]},{"project":"PubmedHPO","denotations":[{"id":"T1","span":{"begin":343,"end":363},"obj":"HP_0005584"},{"id":"T2","span":{"begin":950,"end":955},"obj":"HP_0002664"},{"id":"T3","span":{"begin":1354,"end":1361},"obj":"HP_0002664"},{"id":"T4","span":{"begin":1381,"end":1403},"obj":"HP_0100001"},{"id":"T5","span":{"begin":1433,"end":1439},"obj":"HP_0002664"},{"id":"T6","span":{"begin":1674,"end":1680},"obj":"HP_0002664"}],"attributes":[{"subj":"T1","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"},{"subj":"T2","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"},{"subj":"T3","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"},{"subj":"T4","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"},{"subj":"T5","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"},{"subj":"T6","pred":"source","obj":"PubmedHPO"}]}],"config":{"attribute types":[{"pred":"source","value type":"selection","values":[{"id":"Allie","color":"#93ecc7","default":true},{"id":"PubmedHPO","color":"#ecad93"}]}]}}
