Project description:Cytogenetic abnormalities (CA) are important clinical parameters in various types of cancer, including multiple myeloma (MM). We developed a model to predict CA in patients with MM using gene expression profiling (GEP) and validated it by different cytogenetic techniques. The model was shown to have an accuracy up to 0.89. These results provide proof of concept for the hypothesis that GEP could serve as a one-stop data source for clinical molecular diagnosis and/or prognosis. 92 paired RNA-DNA samples were hybridized to Affy U133Plus2 and Agilent 244K aCGH arrays and used as training set. Another 23 paired samples as test set.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell tumor characterized by various chromosomal aberrations. From the aspect of epigenetics, hypomethylation of DNA repetitive elements has been considered to induce chromosomal instability. We therefore have been interested in how it is related to chromosomal aberrations in MM. To address this, methylation levels of repetitive elements (including LINE-1, Alu and Satellite-alpha) and copy number alterations were measured in clinical samples (N=85). Bisulfite-pyrosequencing (N=85) and array-based comparative genomic hybridization (N=73) were used for these measurement, respectively. As results, methylation levels of repetitive elements were linearly associated with the degree of malignancy of plasma cells. Combined with hierarchical clustering of the result of aCGH, hypomethylation of repetitive elements was well associated with frequent chromosomal deletions. In particular, methylation levels of LINE-1 was significantly higher in samples with chromosome 13 deletion than the other (36.1% vs. 44.0%, P=0.010). The number of deleted probes was significantly correlated with LINE-1 methylation levels (R=-0.531). Finally, we observed significantly poorer prognosis in the lower LINE-1 methylation group (HR=2.8, P=0.015, compared to the higher methylation group). In conclusion, DNA methylation levels of repetitive elements, especially of LINE-1, are associated with the frequency of chromosomal deletions and prognosis in MM. 67 MM samples and 6 monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) samples were analyzed, all samples were selected by CD138 sorting

Project description:Epidemiological data have suggested that African Americans (AA) are twice as likely to be diagnosed with multiple myeloma (MM) as compared to European Americans (EA). Here, we have analyzed a set of cytogenetic and genomic data derived from AA and EA MM patients. We have compared the frequency of IgH translocations in a series of data from 115 AA patients from three studies and EA patients from the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) studies E4A03 and E9487. We have also interrogated tumors from 45 AA and 196 EA MM patients for somatic copy number abnormalities associated with poor outcome. In addition, 35 AA and 178 EA patients were investigated for a transcriptional profile associated with high-risk disease. Overall, based on this cohort, genetic profiles were similar except for a significantly lower frequency of IgH translocations (40% vs. 52%; p=0.032) in AA patients. Frequency differences of somatic copy number aberrations were not significant after correction for multiple testing. There was also no significant difference in the frequency of high-risk disease based upon gene expression profiling. Our study represents the first comprehensive comparisons of the frequency and distribution of molecular alterations in MM tumors between AA and EA patients. This submission contains 27 of the 45 African American cases analyzed by aCGH. In addition, 196 samples from European American myeloma patients were also analyzed and compared to the 45 African American patients.

Project description:To date, little evidence of miRNA expression/deregulation in multiple myeloma (MM) has been reported. To characterize miRNA expression profiling of MM plasma cells (PCs) and integrate miRNA expression data with other molecular features of MM patients, global miRNA expression profiles were generated for PCs isolated from BM biopsies of 38 newly diagnosed MM, 2 plasma cell leukemia patients, and 3 healthy donors; the samples were also profiled for global gene expression, and nineteen of them underwent genome-wide DNA analysis using high-density SNP-microarrays. Differential miRNA expression patterns were mainly identified in association with the major IGH translocations: in particular, t(4;14) showed specific over-expression of let-7e, miR-125a-5p and miR-99b belonging to a cluster at 19q13.33. The occurrence of other lesions, such as 1q gain, 13q and 17p deletions, and hyperdiploidy, was less well characterized by specific miRNA signatures. Genome-wide analysis showed that some allelic imbalances led to the significantly altered expression of miRNAs located in the involved regions, such as let-7b at 22q13.31 loss and miR-142-3p at 17q22 gain. The integrative analysis based on computational target prediction, miRNA and mRNA profiling defined a network of putative functional miRNA-target regulatory relations supported by expression data. This series of microarray experiments contains the microRNA profiles of purified plasma cells (PCs) obtained from 3 normal donor (N), 38 multiple myeloma (MM) and 2 plasma cell leukemia (PCL) at diagnosis. PCs were purified from bone marrow specimens after red blood cell lysis with 0.86% ammonium chloride using CD138 immunomagnetic microbeads. The purity of the positively selected PCs was assessed by morphology and flow cytometry and was >90% in all cases. 500 nanograms of total RNA was processed in accordance with the manufacturer's protocols (Agilent Technologies) to generate Cy3-labeled RNA which were purified on chromatography columns (Micro Biospin 6, Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) and hybridized on an Agilent microarray (G4470B) at 55°C for 17 hr in a rotating oven. Images at 5 um resolution were generated using an Agilent scanner G2505B. The Feature Extraction 9.5 software (Agilent Technologies) was used to obtain the raw microarray data. The human miRNAs included in the platform were annotated according to Sanger miRBase Release 12.0. After discarding non-human miRNAs, the data were normalized using the Aroma Light package for Bioconductor. To overcome scaling biases due to background subtraction, the data were converted to obtain positive values throughout the dataset, at a minimum value of 1. The global gene expression raw data used in this study was originally deposited as GSE13591 and renormalized for this study. The genome wide profile (DNA) analysis was originally deposited as GSE16121.

Project description:Primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) is a rare and very aggressive form of plasma cell dyscrasias. To date, no information of microRNA expression in pPCL has been reported. To investigate the role of miRNAs in pPCL, we analyzed global miRNA expression profiles of highly purified malignant plasma cells from 18 previously untreated patients included in a prospective clinical trial. MiRNA expression patterns were evaluated in the context of the molecular abnormalities of the disease and in comparison with a representative cohort of multiple myeloma (MM) patients. We identified a series of deregulated miRNAs in pPCL (42 up-regulated and 41 down-regulated) which may have a putative role in contributing to tumor progression in MM. Furthermore, we integrated miRNA and gene expression data with computational prediction of miRNA targets, finding that miRNAs differentially expressed between MM and pPCL could regulate genes with important functions in cancer. Overall, our study represents the first attempt to investigate the involvement of miRNAs in pPCL and may contribute to develop functional approaches to investigate the activity of deregulated miRNAs in aggressive forms of plasma cell dyscarsias and their possible role as novel therapeutic targets. This series of microarray experiments contains the microRNA profiles of purified plasma cells (PCs) obtained from 39 multiple myeloma (MM) and 18 primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) at diagnosis. PCs were purified from bone marrow specimens, after red blood cell lysis with 0.86% ammonium chloride, using CD138 immunomagnetic microbeads. The purity of the positively selected PCs was assessed by morphology and flow cytometry and was > 90% in all cases. 500 nanograms of total RNA was processed in accordance with the manufacturer's protocols (Agilent Technologies) to generate Cy3-labelled RNA, which were purified on chromatography columns (Micro Biospin 6, Bio-Rad, Hercules, CA) and then hybridized on an Agilent microarray (G4470B) at 55M-BM-!C for 17 hr in a rotating oven. Images at 5 um resolution were generated using an Agilent scanner G2505B. The Feature Extraction 10.7.3.1 software (Agilent Technologies) was used to obtain the microarray raw-data. The raw gTotalGeneSignal has been recalculated using the procedures described in Agilent Feature Extraction Software version 10.1 manual. Non-human probes, miRNAs flagged as M-CM-^RabsentM-CM-^S (i.e. expressed below background levels) throughout the whole dataset and miRNAs expired according to Sanger miRBase Release 15 (April 2010) were discarded, and a quantile normalization was applied on raw data using the aroma.light package for Bioconducor. The data were then converted to obtain positive values throughout the dataset, at a minimum value of 1, and log2 transformed.

Project description:The prime focus of the current therapeutic strategy for Multiple Myeloma (MM) is an early and deep tumour burden reduction; this characterizes and defines the complete response (CR). To date, no description of the characteristics of the plasma cells (PC) prone to achieve CR has been reported. This study aimed at the molecular characterization of PC derived from MM patients who achieved CR after bortezomib-thalidomide-dexamethasone (VTD) first line therapy. One hundred and eighteen MM primary tumours obtained from homogeneously treated patients were globally profiled both for gene expression and for single nucleotide polymorphism genotype. Genomic results were used to obtain a predictor of sensitivity to VTD induction therapy, as well as to describe both the transcription and the genomic profile of PC derived from patients with MM who will respond optimally to primary induction therapy. By analysing the gene profiles of CR patients, we identified a 5-gene signature predicting CR with an overall median accuracy of 75% (range: 72%-85%). In addition, we highlighted the differential expression of a series of genes, whose deregulation, accordingly to their reported functions, might explain the CR patientsâ?? sensitivity to VTD therapy. We also showed that a small copy number loss, covering 606Kb on chromosome 1p22.1 was the most significantly associated with CR patients. The study provides insights into the genomic landscape of PC obtained from newly diagnosed MM patients achieving CR after VTD and shows that patients might be accurately stratified according to their sensitivity to VTD. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from cryopreserved diagnostic CD138+ cell fractions obtained from bone marrow samples.
