Project description:Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality worldwide. The initial treatment of lung cancer depends on the definition of the tumor type and its staging. The most common treatment is chemotherapy, and the first-line treatment is a combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel. Although this treatment has good efficacy, there is a high prevalence of adverse reactions, especially hematological reactions. Studies on new biomarkers related to these adverse reactions, such as circulating miRNAs, are very important for optimizing the quality of life of patients. miRNAs have high stability in several biological fluids and they have specific expressions in different tissues or pathologies. Thus, this study aimed to verify the relationship between circulating miRNAs and adverse hematologic reactions caused by treatment with carboplatin and paclitaxel in patients with lung cancer. miRNAs were extracted from samples collected from six patients without anemia and six patients with anemia using the miRNeasy Serum/Plasma Kit (Qiagen, cat no. 217184). After miRNA extraction, microarray analysis was performed. The samples went through processes of marking, insertion in the chips, hybridization for 18 h, washing, and scanning. All procedures were performed using the Affymetrix multi-user platform®, and were in accordance with the user guide of the commercial kit MicroArrayFlashTag™Biotin HSR RNA Labeling Kit Genechip®4.0 (ThermoFisher, Cat No. /ID: 902445,900720,900454).

Project description:Crohn's disease (CD) is a debilitating inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), that, like all complex disorders, emerges on a background of many genetic and environmental factors. miRNAs can play an important role in the induction of autoimmune diseases and IBD. The aim of our study was to identify, besides the differentially expressed miRNAs, miRNAs with an altered activity on transcriptome in CD tissues as a consequence of the aforementioned modifications.

Project description:Synovial sarcomas account for approximately 10% of all soft-tissue tumors and occur most frequently in young adults. A specific translocation in this sarcoma induces fusion of the SYT gene on chromosome 18 to the SSX genes on chromosome X, leading to proliferation of the tumor cells. The need for non-invasive biomarkers indicating recurrence and activity of this disease has sparked research into short non-coding RNA known as microRNA (miRNA). Patients and Methods: Blood samples of patients with active synovial sarcoma and of healthy donors were collected. Whole blood RNA was extracted and analyzed using an Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA Array v. 4.0. Results: Hierarchical clustering of all covered human mature miRNAs and human pre-miRNAs separated sarcoma samples from control samples. Following hierarchical clustering, the array results were narrowed own to deregulated miRNAs with a fold change > |3.0|, a p-value <0.005, a q-value (FDR-corrected p-value) <0.2 and a similar deregulation of related miRNAs with the same base sequence throughout the array. Unsupervised hierarchical clustering of the panel of miRNAs that met these criteria could again separate sarcoma patients from healthy controls. Conclusion: Our results have identified a specific whole blood miRNA signature that may serve as an independent biomarker for the diagnosis of local recurrence or distant metastasis of synovial sarcoma.

Project description:Background: Liposarcoma constitute about 13% of all soft tissue sarcoma and are associated with a high risk of metastases. As the preoperative differentiation between benign and malign lipomatous tumors is restricted to magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography and biopsy, we performed a miRNA array to distinguish liposarcoma patients from healthy controls and lipoma patients. Workflow: Blood samples of patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma, healthy controls and lipoma patients were collected. Whole blood RNA was extracted and samples of patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma (n=6) and of healthy donors (n=4) were analyzed using an Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA Array v. 4.0. qRT-PCR was carried out to confirm the most differentially expressed miRNA; being further analyzed in an independent cohort of healthy controls as well as in lipoma patients. Results: As shown by the microarray, two miRNAs (miR-4668-5p and miR-3613-3p) were shown to be significantly upregulated (fold change: >2.5; p<0.05) in patients with dedifferentiated liposarcoma (n=6) as compared to healthy controls (n=4). miR-4668-5p was further validated by qRT-PCR to be significantly upregulated in liposarcoma patients compared to an independent cohort of healthy controls (n=3) and lipoma patients (n=6). Conclusion: We identified a specific whole blood miRNA (miR-4668-5p) that may serve to distinguish between lipoma and liosarcoma patients, thus potentially serving as a specific biomarker for dedifferentiated liposarcoma.

Project description:Comparison between hemophilia (HA) patients and non-hemophilic (no HA) patients on different cell culture passages. This allows to see if there are epigenetic changes in fibroblasts like synoviocytes when there is blood in the joint. We compared five patients: two no-HA and three HA patients. The replicates were made on different cell culture passages. The cells were activated by LPS to make an inflammatory reaction.

Project description:High yielding dairy cattle undergo a state of NEB (negative energy balance) during the post-partum period when energy demand for lactation and maintenance exceeds energy intake. During this period in order to counteract NEB the liver under goes extensive metabolic and physiological change resulting in alteration in hepatic genes and miRNAs expression. We used Affymetrix Multispecies miRNA-2_0 Array with miRBase version 15 coverage to assess the liver miRNA expression in SNEB (severe NEB) and MNEB (mild NEB) Holstein Friesian cattle during the post-partum period. A NEB model of Holstein Friesian was established such that 12 post-partum cattle were randomly assigned to MNEB and SNEB groups depending on different feeding and milking regimes

Patients and Methods: Serum samples of patients with active synovial sarcoma, healthy donors and leiomyosarcoma patients were collected. Cell-free serum was obtained by differential centrifugation steps and analyzed using an Affymetrix GeneChip miRNA Array v. 4.0. qRT-PCR was carried out to confirm a panel of miRNAs which where differentially expressed in the miRNA array.
