Project description:Solid-pseudopapillary neoplasm of pancreas (SPN), ductal adenocarcinoma (PCA), neuroendocrine tumor (NET) and non-neoplastic pancreas. comparison with gene expression of tumors and non-tumors To investigate the specific microRNA expression of SPN compared to other types of pancreatic tumor, we analyzed large-scale microRNA expressioin analysis to identify the molecular signature that may affect SPN tumorigenesis with mRNA expression profiles. Differentially expressed microRNAs were analyzed on SPNs, PCAs, NETs and Non-neoplastic tissues.

Project description:miRNAs are excellent tumor biomarkers because of their cell-type specificity and abundance. However, many miRNA detection methods, such as real-time (RT)-PCR, obliterate valuable visuospatial information in tissue samples. To enable miRNA visualization in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues, we developed multicolor miRNA fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). For proof-of-concept, we differentiated two skin tumors, namely Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) and Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), with overlapping histologic features but distinct cellular origins. Using sequencing-based miRNA profiling and discriminant analysis, we identified tumor-specific miRNAs (miR-205 and miR-375) in BCC and MCC respectively. We addressed three major shortcomings in miRNA FISH, identifying optimal conditions for miRNA fixation and rRNA retention using model compounds and HPLC analyses, enhancing signal amplification and detection by increasing probe-hapten linker lengths, and improving probe specificity using shortened probes with minimal rRNA sequence complementarity. We validated our method on 4 BCC and 12 MCC tumors. Amplified miR-205 and miR-375 signals were normalized against directly detectable reference rRNA signals. Tumors were classified using pre-defined cut-off values; all were correctly identified in blinded analysis. We established a reliable miRNA FISH technique for parallel visualization of differentially expressed miRNAs in FFPE tumor tissues 6 MCC samples 2 normal skin samples were profiled with Agilent miRNA array platform

Project description:We attempt to catalog the microRNA (miRNA) expression profile according to the response of combination therapy in order to predict the outcome of drug-response before administration and clarify the relationship between aberrant expression of miRNAs and chronic liver disease. We quantified expression profile of 474 mature miRNAs by microarray in the liver biopsy specimen from 99 CH patients without history of anti-viral therapy.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have important roles in gene regulation. Dysregulation of miRNAs has been associated with tumorigenesis. Recent studies suggest miR-193b is a tumor suppressor gene. In a previous study, we reported that miR-193b represses cell proliferation and regulates cyclin D1 (CCND1) in melanoma. Now we demonstrate that miR-193b regulates myeloid cell leukemia sequence 1 (Mcl-1) in melanoma cells. miRNA microarray profiling revealed the miR-193b level in malignant melanomas was significantly downregulated compared to benign nevi, while a tissue microarray demonstrated overexpression of Mcl-1 in malignant melanoma. The Mcl-1 expressions were inversely correlated with the miR-193b levels in melanoma tissue samples, suggesting a potential regulatory role of miR-193b. Overexpression of miR-193b repressed Mcl-1 in melanoma cell lines. It is well known that Mcl-1 knockdown confers cell sensitivity to ABT-737, a small molecular inhibitor of Bcl-2, Bcl-XL and Bcl-w. We found miR-193b, through repressing Mcl-1 expression, could also sensitize melanoma cells that were refractory to ABT-737. Furthermore, miR-193b directly regulates Mcl-1 by targeting the 3â untranslated region (3âUTR) of Mcl-1 mRNA. Interestingly, miR-193b may recognize sequences on the 3âUTR that do not base pair with its seed region. In conclusion, our study suggests the downregulation of miR-193b could be an early event during melanoma progression, and demonstrates miR-193b directly regulates Mcl-1 by targeting both seed and seedless sequences of the 3â UTR. 15 primary melanoma samples, 8 metastatic melanomas and 8 benign nevi samples were profiled on Agilent miRNA array platform

Project description:MicroRNAs are a family of 19- to 25-nucleotides noncoding small RNAs that primarily function as gene regulators. Aberrant microRNA expression has been described for several human malignancies, and this new class of small regulatory RNAs has both oncogenic and tumor suppressor functions. Despite this knowledge, there is little information regarding microRNAs in blood especially because microRNAs in blood, if exist, were thought to be digested by RNase. Recent studies, however, have revealed that microRNAs exist and escape digestion in serum and plasma. Thus, we performed microRNA microaray to obtain insight into microRNA deregulation in the plasma of a leukemia patient. Here, we have revealed that microRNA-638 (miR-638) is stably present in human plasmas, and miR-92a dramatically decreased in the plasmas of acute leukemia patients. Our data indicate that the ratio of miR-92a/miR-638 in plasma has strong potential for clinical application as a novel biomarker for detection of leukemia. Seven normal samples and two acute leukemia samples ware profiled and compared.

Project description:Cutaneous melanoma is an increasingly common form of skin cancer. The molecular mechanisms regulating melanoma progression are not completely understood. We speculated that specific miRNAs may be involved in melanoma development. We compared the miRNA expression profiles of benign nevi and metastatic melanomas. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering demonstrated a distinct miRNA expression pattern in metastatic melanomas compared to nevi. We identified miRNAs that were differentially expressed in melanoma. Notably, miR-193b was significantly down-regulated in the melanoma tissue examined. Using functional studies we demonstrated that over-expression of miR-193b significantly reduced melanoma cell proliferation, and arrested cell at G1 phase. Further gene expression analysis revealed that miR-193b regulated targets involved in cell cycle. Cyclin D1 was down-regulated by miR-193b at both the mRNA and protein level. This is the first study to show that the miR-193b may reduce cell proliferation by directly repressing cyclin D1. Overall, our study suggests that miRNAs are dysregulated in metastatic melanoma, and that miR-193b may play an important role in melanoma. 8 benign nevi and 8 metastatic melanoma tissue samples were profiled by Agilent MicroRNA Microarray (V1.5).

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that repress gene expression at the post transcriptional level via an antisense RNA-RNA interaction. Generally, miRNAs derived from snap frozen or fresh samples are used for array based profiling. Since tissues in most pathology departments are available only in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded state, we sought to evaluate the miRNA derived from formalin fixed and paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples for microarray analysis. In this study, miRNAs extracted from matched snap frozen and FFPE samples were profiled using the Agilent miRNA array platform. Each miRNA sample was hybridized to arrays containing probes interrogating 470 human miRNAs. A total of seven cases were compared in either duplicate or triplicate. Intrachip and interchip analyses demonstrated that the processes of miRNA extraction, labeling and hybridization from both frozen and FFPE samples are highly reproducible and add little variation to the results, as technical replicates showed high correlations (Kendall tau=0.722-0.853, Spearman rank correlation coefficient=0.891-0.954). Our results showed consistent high correlation between matched frozen and FFPE samples (Kendall tau=0.669-0.815, Spearman rank correlation coefficient=0.847-0.948), supporting the use of FFPE-derived miRNAs for profiling. Keywords: formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) miRNA profiling 7 matched frozen and FFPE lymphoid hyperplasia tissues were profiled and compared. Triplicate arrays were performed for two pairs of hyperplasia samples and duplicate arrays for three pairs of hyperplasia samples.

Project description:In the last decades platinum-based neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) has been recognized as a reliable therapeutic strategy in patients with un-resectable advanced epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). However, the molecular changes induced by NACT at miRNA level, and their prognostic role has not been clarified until now. In order to uncover miRNAs that are altered in EOC tumor which received NACT, we performed whole-miRNA analysis on 82 FIGO Stage IIIC-IV high-grade serous (HGS) tumors, whose samples had been collected at complete primary debulking (PDS) and at interval-debulking surgery (IDS) after fter 4 courses of NACT.
