Project description:We report the in vivo androgen receptor (AR) binding sites in murine prostate, epididymis and kidney in response to physiological androgen testosterone using ChIP-sequencing and gene expression profiling by microarray. From AR cistrome analysis, we identified tissue-specific collaborating factors i.e. FoxA1 in prostate, Hnf4a in kidney and AP2a in epididymis and validated by ChIP-seq. The ChIP experiments have been performed using antibodies specific to AR, FoxA1, Hnf4a, AP-2a and IgG non-specific antibody as a negative control. Expression profiling by microarray of mouse androgen responsive tissues, prostate, kidney and epididymis castrated and treated with vehicle or testosterone for 3 days or 12 or 24 hours after single testosterone-injection.

Project description:We report the dual role of FoxA1 in androgen receptor recruitment to the chromatin of androgen responsive prostate cancer cell line LNCaP-1F5 using ChIP-sequencing. Depletion of FoxA1 reprograms both androgen and glucocorticoid receptor recruitment and subsequent gene expression. The ChIP-seq has been performed using AR, FoxA1, GR, H3K4me2 antibodies. We have also mapped the DNaseI-hypersensitive sites (DHS) using deep sequencing. LNCaP-1F5 cells were depleted of FoxA1 using siRNAs. Parental cells and FoxA1 depleted cells (siFoxA1) were treated with vehicle or 100 nM DHT or (100 nM DEX) for 24 hours followed by RNA isolation and hybridization to Illumina arrays. All the experiments have been performed in biological duplicates. Parental cells treated with DHT (or DEX) were analyzed for differentially expressed genes compared to vehicle treated parental cells. Similarly siFoxA1 cells treated with DHT (or DEX) were analyzed for differentially expressed genes compared to vehicle treated siFoxA1 cells.

Project description:B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a common type of leukemia, characterized by the progressive accumulation of CD5+ “mature” monoclonal B lymphocytes in peripheral blood, bone marrow and lymphoid tissues. Although circulating CLL cells are non-dividing cells, prone to spontaneous apoptosis, their progressive accumulation is the result of a dynamic balance between cell death and proliferation and a high turn-over rate has been related to a poor prognosis. Indeed, CLL cells are protected from apoptosis and proliferate in specific niches within the lymphoid tissues and the bone marrow. CLL cells show variable expression of IL-21R that can be up-regulated by cell activation via CD40. CD40-activated CLL cells phosphorylate STAT-1 and STAT-3 and undergo apoptosis in response to IL-21 stimulation. By gene-expression profiling we found out that IL-21 modulates the expression of several genes including cytokine and chemokine genes and genes involved in cell survival and apoptosis in CD40-activated CLL cells. PBMCs were isolated from heparinized blood obtained from 13 untreated patients diagnosed with CLL on the basis of clinical and immunophenotypic criteria. PBMCs were isolated by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and characterized by immunofluorescence and FACS analysis. When residual non B-cells exceeded 10%, B cells were enriched by negative selection with antibody-coated magnetic beads (CD2-beads, Dynal, Oslo, Norway) to obtain a >95% pure CD19+/CD5+ B cell population. B-CLL cells were pre-activated on adherent CD40L-transduced L cells for 48-36h and then stimulated with IL-21 or medium only for additional 18h. Total RNA was isolated from samples using TriZol (Invitrogen) reagent.

Project description:The effect of folic acid (FA) on breast cancer (BC) risk is uncertain. We hypothesised that this uncertainty may be due, in part, to differential effects of FA between BC cells with different phenotype. To test this we investigated the effect of treatment with FA concentrations within the range of unmetabolised FA reported in humans on the expression of the transcriptomes of non-transformed (MCF10a) and cancerous (MCF7 and Hs578T) BC cells. Total RNA obtained from three breast cancer cell lines (MCF10a, MCF7, Hs578T) treated with 100nmoles/l folic acid untreated control cells. Six replicates per treatment group.

Project description:First line chemotherapy with platinum and cetuximab is usually offered to RM-HNSCC pts. In the Extreme trial a median progression free survival (PFS) time of 5.6 months was reported. However, a small fraction of pts achieves a prolonged PFS (> than 12 months). Till now, no recognized predictive biological factor has been identified. A group of 14 cases treated with a first line platinum and cetuximab with a PFS exceeding 12 months (long PFS) and a group of 26 pts with a PFS less than 5.6 months (short PFS) were selected. The 2 groups were well balanced in regard to recognized prognostic factors (performance status, weight loss, prior radiotherapy, tumor grade, site of primary tumor, residual disease at primary tumor site). Tumor specimens of the recurrence or, if not available, of the primary tumor were collected. In order to identify molecular profiles deregulated between the 2 groups, a gene expression microarray analysis was performed using the Whole-Genome DASL assay and HumanHT-12_v4 BeadArray chips (lllumina). Gender: male=0; female=1. Age: years at diagnosis Site of primary: oral cavity=0; oropharynx=1; hypopharynx=2; larynx=3. Stage of T at first diagnosis according to AJCC 8th edition Grading according to WHO: well differentiated=1; moderately differentiated=2; scarcely differentiated=3. Radiotherapy (RT) prior to recurrence: No=0; Yes=1. Progression Free Survival (PFS): Long (>12 months); Short(<5 months).

Project description:A set of 45 surgical specimens has been profiled for miRNA expression to validate miRNA alterations associated to early relapse in advanced stage ovarian cancer patients. Fresh frozen samples were collected from a series of consecutive patients with high-grade advanced stage ovarian cancer who underwent primary surgery at INT-Milan. After surgery all patients received postoperative platinum-based chemotherapy. All patients signed an Institutional Review Board approved consent for bio-banking, clinical data collection and molecular analysis. Clinical codes: Histotype: according to WHO classification guidelines Stage: according to International Federation of Gynecological and Obstetrics (FIGO) guidelines Grading: according to WHO classification guidelines Debulking: NED: not evident disease; mRD: minimal residual disease; GRD: gross residual disease Therapy code: P: Platinum without taxanes; PT: Platinum/paclitaxel

Project description:Trastuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody directed to the HER2 protein, is the standard-of-care treatment for patients with HER2 positive breast cancer, reducing the risk of relapse and death in patients. Nonetheless, some patients do not benefit from this treatment, underscoring the need to identify patients for whom chemotherapy + trastuzumab is adequate versus patients requiring additional drugs. The series comprised 24 incisional biopsies of breast carcinomas derived from patients that received neoadjuvant trastuzumab based therapy. Gene expression profiling was performed using RNA from frozen core biopsies from 24 patients with primary HER2-positive (HER2+) tumors treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy and trastuzumab.
