Cancer genomes frequently contain somatic copy number alterations (SCNA) that can significantly perturb the expression level of affected genes and thus disrupt pathways controlling normal growth. In melanoma, many studies have focussed on the copy number and gene expression levels of the BRAF, PTEN and MITF genes, but little has been done to identify new genes using these parameters at the genome-wide scale. Using karyotyping, SNP and CGH arrays, and RNA-seq, we have identified SCNA affecting ge ...[more]

Project description:All cancers are diseases of the genome. A combination of somatic point mutations, focal amplifications and deletions, and chromosome level aberrations conspire to disrupt gene expression and the interplay between signaling pathways that control normal growth and tissue homeostasis. Here we investigate somatic copy number abberations in metastatic melanomas. A metastatic melanoma was assayed on Affymetrix SNP arrays to detect copy number abberations. 7 cutaneous melanomas as well as their matched control ( peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) or Epstein-Barr virus transformed lymphoblastoid cell lines ) and 2 control melanocytes were assayed on Illumina SNP arrays. 7 metastatic melanomas were hybridized on Agilent CGH arrays using donor matched control as reference.

Project description:Lung cancer is a highly heterogeneous disease in terms of both underlying genetic lesions and response to therapeutic treatments. We performed deep whole genome sequencing and transcriptome sequencing on 19 lung cancer cell lines and 3 lung tumor/normal pairs (provisional dbGaP accession number; phs000299.v2.p1). Overall, our data show that cell line models exhibit similar mutation spectra to human tumor samples. Taken together, these data present a comprehensive genomic landscape of a large number of lung cancer samples and further demonstrate that cancer specific alternative splicing is a widespread phenomenon that has potential utility as therapeutic biomarkers. Nineteen non-small cell lung cancer cell lines were assayed for genotype, copy number and LOH using Illumina Omni2.5-4 arrays, GenomeStudio V2011.1, and a modified version of the PICNIC (PMID 19837654) algorithm.

Project description:Development of a new carcinoma cell line (HC-AFW1) derived from a pediatric liver tumor The cell line HC-AFW1 was derived from a 4 year old boy suffering from HCC through culturing and passage into immuno-deficient mice. The cell line is stable now for over 8 months of culture with a doubling time of 40 h. The tumor cells show an epithelial histology and express hepatoma proteins such as Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), Glypican 3, E-cadherin, CD10, CD326, HepPar1, Vimentin and Desmin. Catenin beta shows a deletion of 49 amino acids in the exon 3 involving the phosphorylation sites of GSK3 and is detectable in the cell nuclei. Cytogenetic analysis revealed large anomalies in the chromosomal map including chromosomal aberrations found in hepatoblastoma as well as in adult HCC. Copy number analysis of two different passages of HC-AFW1 cells Two tumor specimens were used for tissue culture and xenotransplantation into NSG mice. Tumor cells derived from xenografts were cultured and designated as HC-AFW1. DNA was analyzed from the passage 2 (2P2). HC-AFW2 was derived from tissue culture without transfer in to mice. Primary tissue samples were minced into pieces of 3x3 mm and cultured on 6 well plates (Becton Dickenson, Frankfurt, Germany) in DMEM (GIBCO BRL, Carlsbad, CA) supplemented with 10% FCS (growth medium). Cell cultures were maintained in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 at 37°C. For subculturing cells were detached from the culture surface using accutase in Dulbecco´s PBS containing 0.5mM EDTA (PAA Laboratories GmbH, Cölbe, Germany) for 2-3 minutes at 37°C. A sub-cultivation ratio of 1:4 and 1:6 was performed twice per week. Cells were stored in liquid nitrogen as a suspension in complete growth medium with 10% DMSO. DNA from patient blood and tumor samples was isolated with the QiaAmp DNA mini Kit according to manufacturer's instructions (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany). Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and copy number polymorphism (CNP) genotyping were performed using the Genome-Wide Human SNP Array 6.0 and Genotyping Console (GTC) software (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA).

Project description:Follicular lymphoma (FL) constitutes the second most common non-Hodgkin lymphoma in the Western world. FL carries characteristic recurrent structural genomic aberrations. However, information regarding the coding genome in FL is still evolving. Here, we describe the results of massively parallel exome sequencing and high-resolution SNP 6.0 array profiling of 12 highly purified FL cases and validation of mutations in an expansion cohort of 45 cases. In addition to confirming high-frequency mutations in MLL2, CREBBP and BCL2, we report identification of 18 recurrently mutated genes in FL. These include novel mutations in MCL1, IRF8 and POU2FA/OCT2, and high-frequency mutations in various components of the linker histone HIST1H1. Further, multiple novel mutated genes located within regions of acquired uniparental disomy (aUPD) are identified, providing candidate genes for this common lesion type in FL. In aggregate, these data substantially broaden our understanding of the types and frequency of recurrently mutated genes and pathways in FL Twelve paired normal and tumor follicular lymphoma cases were profiled by SNP array for this study. However, in addition the data from 125 CEL files derived from the DNA of flow-sorted CD3+ cells from 125 CLL patients (122 CEL files from GSE30777) were used to firmly establish a normal copy number baseline for the dChip software to compute all subsequent normal and tumor DNA copy number values.

Project description:A diploid 46(XX) human embryonic stem cell (HESC) line affected by Spinal muscular atrophy type 1 (SMA) due to homozygosity for a common deletion in the SMN1 gene was derived. By characterizing the methylation status of three different imprinted loci (MEST, SNRPN and H19) and carrying out genome-wide SNP analysis, we provide evidence that this cell line was established from the activation of a mutant haploid oocyte through parthenogenesis, resulting in homozygote diploidization of the entire genome. Affymetrix CytoScan 750K array analysis was performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from tissue culture. Copy number and LOH analysis of the Affymetrix CytoScan 750K array was performed for the SMA HESC line.

Project description:Lenalidome is a drug especially effective in low risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) with isolated 5q deletion. However, 25% of the patients did not respond. TP53 mutations have been described to play a role in the disease progression, and karyotypic complexity also has an important impact in the outcome. We selected 53 MDS patients with 5q deletion and treated with lenalidomide and we studied by the following techniques: conventional G-banding cytogenetics (CC), single nucleotide polymorphism arrays (SNP-A) and sequencing, in order to assess their impact on treatment response and disease progression. Low karyotypic complexity (by CC), a high baseline platelet count (>280x103/L) and TP53 unmutated gene status are associated with the achievement of hematological response (P=0.005, P=0.008 and P=0.057, respectively). In a multivariate model, the most important predictors for lenalidomide failure are karyotypic complexity (P=0.014) and a platelet count below 280x103/L (P=0.042). Additionally, none of the TP53 mutated cases achieved complete cytogenetics response. Nevertheless, inclusion of defects by SNP-A did not allow for a better separation of responders and non responders. These findings constitute a useful reference data to be considered before lenalidomide treatment enrollment. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from bone marrow or peripheral blood and, in some cases, also lymphocytes CD3 isolated from peripheral blood samples. Copy number analyses of Affymetrix 250K and 6.0 SNP arrays were performed for 53 MDS with 5q deletion samples. There are also 30 samples from lymphocytes CD3 isolated from peripheral blood, which were used as germ-line DNA (control).

Project description:Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an asbestos-related malignancy. Discrimination between MM and reactive mesothelial hyperplasia (RM) is often difficult. MM cells have a broad histological spectrum, and consist mainly of epithelioid, sarcomatoid, and biphasic cell types. The prognosis of MM is generally poor, but better prognosis has been reported with the epithelioid type of MM than the non-epithelioid type. We applied a genome-wide analysis to the identification of new markers that may aid in differentiating the epithelioid type of MM from other histological types and from RM cells. Array-based comparative genomic hybridization analysis was performed on malignant mesothelioma (MM) primary cell cultures, reactive mesothelial hyperplasia (RM) primary cell cultures; early passage of in vitro primary cell cultures to minimize acquisition of additional genomic changes. If available, matched peripheral blood was applied to analysis.

Project description:Human pluripotent stem cells commonly undergo adaptive changes during prolonged passaging in vitro. We have developed a new laminin-521 based method for self-renewal of human pluripotent stem cells. SNP6.0 array was used to assess genetic stability of several human ES cell lines cultured in the new system with two lines (H1 and HS401) cultured on feeders (standard conditions) Two main objectives in this study: To compare the number of the CNVs in human ES cells at early and late passages; for example, samples HS980 p6 and HS980 p31 represent HS980 cells at passages 6 and 31, respectively. The overall conclusion is that the observed number of CNVs is similar in the cells at early and late passages. This analysis can be remade without the reference samples. To compare the number of CNVs in control human ES cells (H1 and HS401) grown under standard protocol with that in cells (HS980, HS983a, HS999, HS916, and HS1001) grown under a new, developed by us, protocol. Because the cells were from different individuals, we could not compare them directly. Instead, we compared them to a set of samples from 75 healthy individuals, and then with each other. For the Reference These samples had been hybridized in the same lab as our samples, but for a different project; and the data were kindly provided by Prof. Kere. However, the same overall conclusion would result from an other sufficiently large dataset of healthy human individuals. Please note that 75 healthy individual samples had been hybridized in the same lab as our samples and the data were kindly provided by Prof. Kere, which is linked as a Series supplementary file ('75_samples_ref.REF'). It is a Reference Model File that Affymetrix Genotyping Console software has created based on data from 75 healthy individuals (i.e. processed file based on the CEL files of the 75 healthy individuals). The file derives from the "CN/LOH Reference Model File Creation and Analysis (Batch Sample Mode)" process according to the Genotyping Console manual. It contains SNP-wise information on the observed distribution of hybridization intensities of a set of samples that are assumed to be diploid in copy number (for most part of their genomes at least). This file is then used to compare the intensities observed in the CEL files of interest to infer deviations from the reference as CNVs. Thus, in combination with the CEL files (from each ES cell line), this file enables the exact replication of the CNV analyses done for the various human ES cell lines study. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted cultured human ES cells. Several lines were analysed at different time points of the experiment. The analysis was done using default parameters and comparing each sample against a reference set of 75 healthy individuals provided by Juha Kere.

Project description:Centrosome amplification has long been recognized as a feature of human tumors, however its role in tumorigenesis remains unclear. Centrosome amplification is poorly tolerated by non-transformed cells, and, in the absence of selection, extra centrosomes are spontaneously lost. Thus, the high frequency of centrosome amplification, particularly in more aggressive tumors, raises the possibility that extra centrosomes could, in some contexts, confer advantageous characteristics that promote tumor progression. Using a three-dimensional model system and other approaches to culture human mammary epithelial cells, we find that centrosome amplification triggers cell invasion. This invasive behavior is similar to that induced by overexpression of the breast cancer oncogene ErbB2 and indeed enhances invasiveness triggered by ErbB2. We show that, through increased centrosomal microtubule nucleation, centrosome amplification increases Rac1 activity, which disrupts normal cell-cell adhesion and promotes invasion. These findings demonstrate that centrosome amplification, a structural alteration of the cytoskeleton, can promote features of malignant transformation. genome-wide human SNP 6.0 arrays from Affymetrix was used to determine the copy number changes of MCF10A cells with extra centrosomes or depleted of MCAK after grown 4 days in 3-D cultures
