Project description:Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the fifth most common malignancy worldwide with an annual mortality rate of 200,000. About 90% of HNC can be classified as head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC), of which approximately 75% are attributed to alcohol and tobacco consumption and 25 are associated with human papillomavirus (HPV), predominantly HPV16. HPV-associated OPC have better prognosis and a more favorable response to therapy as compared to HPV-negative tumors. Differences in risk factors, age of presentation, clinical behavior and gene expression profiles indicate that HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors develop via different molecular mechanisms and are biologically distinct. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPC) and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues and determine what biological processes and pathways are affected in HPV-negative OPCs. ANALYSIS 6: Two-condition, one-color experiment: HPV-negative oropharyngeal tumor samples and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues. Biological replicates: 16 HPV negtive samples and 4 Normal samples.

Project description:Fundamental changes in the composition and distribution of lipids within the brain are believed to contribute to the cognitive decline associated with Alzheimerâs disease (AD). The mechanisms by which these changes in lipid composition affect cellular function and ultimately cognition are not well understood. Although âcandidate geneâ approaches can provide insight into the effects of dysregulated lipid metabolism they require a preexisting understanding of the molecular targets of individual lipid species. In this report we combine unbiased gene expression profiling with a genomewide chemogenomic screen to identify the mitochondria as an important downstream target of PC(O-16:0/2:0), a neurotoxic lipid species elevated in AD. Further examination revealed that PC(O-16:0/2:0) similarly promotes a global increase in ceramide accumulation in human neurons which was associated with mitochondrial-derived reactive oxygen species (ROS) and toxicity. These findings suggest that PC(O-16:0/2:0)-dependent mitochondrial dysfunction may be an underlying contributing factor to the ROS production associated with AD. This experiment contains 2 samples, 4 biological reps for each sample were hybridized. Cy3 one-color labelling was used for each sample.

Differences in risk factors, age of presentation, clinical behavior and gene expression profiles indicate that HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors develop via different molecular mechanisms and are biologically distinct. African American (AA) males have a higher incidence of HNC than any other racial/gender group, and a mortality rate almost three-fold that observed in European American (EA) males. Overall, AA patients tend to present with more HPV-negative OPC and have worse prognosis as compared to both HPV-positive and HPV-negative HNSCC in EA patients. Despite the unveiling of differential gene expression patterns, genetic and epigenetic profiles and the compilation of a mutational landscape along with preliminary TCGA data of HPV-related and unrelated HNC, the molecular determinants of the racial disparity in HNC are yet to be identified. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-negative HNSCC from AA and EA patients, and determine their biological differences. ANALYSIS 2: Two-condition, on-color experiment: African American (AA) vs European American (EA) HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinomas. Biological replicates: 8 African American and 8 European American.

HPV-associated OPC have better prognosis and a more favorable response to therapy as compared to HPV-negative tumors. Viral oncoproteins are capable of transforming primary human keratinocytes from either genital or oral epithelia in vitro and most likely play the same role in vivo, by disrupting cell-cycle regulatory pathways leading to a genetic progression to ano-genital cancer and OPC. However, the precise mechanisms by which HPV mediates malignant transformation of keratinocytes in the upper digestive tract epithelia are not entirely clear. HPV E7-mediated inactivation of pRb results in overexpression of p16INK4A, which is commonly used as a clinical surrogate marker for HPV positivity/activity. However, high p16INK4A alone has insufficient sensitivity and specificity as a biomarker of HPV positivity in different mucosal sub-sites of HNC. Therefore, increasing emphasis is being placed on the assessment of viral load and E7 oncogene expression, resulting in further classification of HPV positive OPC as HPV-active and HPV-inactive. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-inactive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPC) and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues from European American patients and determine what biological processes and pathways are affected in HPV-inactive OPCs in this ethnic group. ANALYSIS 7: Two-condition, one-color experiment: European American (EA) HPV-inactive oropharyngeal tumor samples and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues. Biological replicates: 4 EA HPV inactive samples and 4 EA Normal samples.

Differences in risk factors, age of presentation, clinical behavior and gene expression profiles indicate that HPV-positive and HPV-negative tumors develop via different molecular mechanisms and are biologically distinct. HPV has been characterized as a risk factor for OPC based on race, life style and sexual behavior, impacting survival outcomes for both African American (AA) and European American (EA) patients. According to some reports, the rate of HPV-associated tumors is much lower in AA patients as compared to EA patients in United States. In general, however, AA males have a higher incidence of HNC than any other racial/gender group, and a mortality rate almost three-fold that observed in EA males. Overall, AA patients tend to present with more HPV-negative OPC and have worse prognosis as compared to both HPV-positive and HPV-negative EA patients. This study aimed to compare the gene expression profiles of HPV-negative oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPC) and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues from European American patients and determine what biological processes and pathways are affected in HPV-negative OPCs in EA patients. Additional datasets in this study explore gene expression differences in HNC from EA and AA patients. ANALYSIS 8: Two-condition, one-color experiment: European American (EA) HPV-negative oropharyngeal tumor samples and normal benign uvula/tonsil tissues. Biological replicates: 8 EA HPV active samples and 4 EA Normal samples.

Project description:Adult renal stem/progenitor cells (ARPCs), first identified in the BowmanM-bM-^@M-^Ys capsule, were recently identified also in the tubular compartment and it was demonstrated that renal progenitors from both locations were positive for PAX-2, CD133 and CD24 and exhibited multipotent differentiation ability. Recent studies indicated that microRNAs (miRNAs), a class of noncoding small RNAs that participate in the regulation of gene expression, may play a key role in stem cell self-renewal and differentiation. Distinct sets of miRNAs are specifically expressed in pluripotent stem cells but not in adult tissues, suggesting a role for miRNAs in stem cell self-renewal. We compared miRNA expression profiles of renal progenitors with that of renal proximal tubular cells (RPTECs) and of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and found distinct sets of miRNAs that were specifically expressed both in tubular and glomerular ARPCs. In particular, the miR-1915 and miR-1225-5p regulated the expression of important markers of renal progenitors, such as CD133 and PAX-2, and important genes involved in the repair mechanisms of ARPCs, such as TLR2. We demonstrated that the expression of both the renal stem cell markers CD133 and PAX-2 depends, at least in part, on lower miR-1915 levels and showed that the increase of miR-1915 levels improved capacity of ARPCs to differentiate into adipocyte-like and epithelial-like cells. Finally, we found that the low levels of miR-1225-5p were responsible for high TLR2 expression in ARPCs. Therefore, together, the miR-1915 and the miR-1225-5p seems to regulate important trait of ARPCs: the stemness and the repair capacity. Sixteen samples consisting of 5 glomerular and tubular ARPCs each, 3 MSCs, and 3 RPTECS.
