DNA copy number changes in malignant mesothelioma

ABSTRACT: 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: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: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.
