Project description:Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is characterized by dismal prognosis. Consequently, dissection of the molecular mechanisms driving malignancy is of key importance. Here we investigate whether activating mutations in the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) gene promoter are present in MPM and associated with disease progression, cell immortalization, and genomic alteration patterns.

Project description:Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive tumor with a dismal overall survival (OS) and to date few molecular markers are available to guide patient management. This study aimed to identify a prognostic miRNA signature in MPM patients who did not undergo tumor resection. Whole miRNA profiling using a microarray platform was performed on 26 unresected MPM with distinct clinical outcome: 15 patients had aggressive disease (OS<12 months) and 11 patients indolent disease (OS>36 months). Three prognostic miRNAs (mir-99a, let-7c and miR-125b) encoded at the same cluster (21q21) were selected for further validation and tested on publicly available miRNA sequencing data (TCGA) from 72 MPM patients with survival data. A risk model was built based on these 3 miRNAs that was validated by quantitative PCR in an independent set of 30 MPM patients. High risk patients had shorter median OS (7.6 months) as compared with low-risk patients (median not reached). In the multivariate Cox model, a high risk score was an independently associated with shorter OS (HR=3.14; 95% CI, 1.18–8.34; P=0.022). Our study identified that the downregulation of the miR-99a/let-7/miR-125b miRNA cluster predicts poor outcome in unresected MPM.

Project description:Malignant mesothelioma (MpM) is an aggressive, fatal tumour, associated with asbestos exposure, for which there is no curative therapy and the mechanism of carcinogenesis is poorly understood. We use translational profiling to show that dysregulated post-transcriptional control makes a major contribution to aberrant cell growth in primary MpM cells, with elevated signalling through the mTOR axis activating mRNA translation initiation.

Project description:We analyzed the transcription response of human primary fibroblasts exposed (3 days) to a non blocking dose of HU (250µM). This dose of HU generates a replication stress, but the canonical DDR is not fully activated and the cells still proliferate and synthetize DNA; however, cells respond to such low stress (L-stress). Here we made a global analysis of the transcription response of cells to such low replication stress (non blocking).

Project description:Malignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive cancer that is often diagnosed at an advanced stage and is characterized by a long latency period (20-40 years between initial exposure and diagnosis) and prior exposure to asbestos. Currently accurate diagnosis of MPM is difficult due to the lack of sensitive biomarkers, and despite minor improvements in treatment, median survival rates do not exceed 12 months. Accumulating evidence suggests that aberrant expression of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play an important functional role in cancer biology. LncRNAs are a class of recently discovered non-protein coding RNAs >200 nucleotides in length with a role in regulating transcription. Here we used NCode long noncoding microarrays to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs potentially involved in MPM pathogenesis. High priority candidate lncRNAs were selected on the basis of statistical (P<0.05) and biological significance (>3-fold difference). Expression levels of 9 candidate lncRNAs were technically validated using RT-qPCR, and biologically validated in three independent test sets: (1) 57 archived MPM tissues obtained from extrapleural pneumonectomy patients, (2) 15 cryopreserved MPM and 3 benign pleura, and (3) an extended panel of 10 MPM cell lines. RT-qPCR analysis demonstrated consistent up-regulation of these lncRNAs in independent datasets. ROC curve analysis showed that two candidates were able to separate benign pleura and MPM with high sensitivity and specificity, and were associated with nodal metastases and survival following induction chemotherapy. These results suggest that lncRNAs have potential to serve as biomarkers in MPM. To identify mRNA and lncRNA biomarkers associated with malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM), we performed gene expression array analysis on 4 MPM cell lines (H28, MM05, MSTO-211H, H226) compared to the immortalised mesothelial line (MeT-5A). All cell lines were profiled in duplicate. Synthesis of the labelled first strand cDNA was conducted using the Superscript Plus Direct cDNA labeling system with starting material of 10ug total RNA. The labeled dNTP mix was added to the reaction to generate labeled second strand cDNA. Following the hydrolysis reaction, single-stranded cDNA was purified using low elution volume spin cartridges included in the purification module. Samples were labelled using Alexa Fluor 555 dyes. Samples were then hybridised to NCode Long Noncoding RNA Microarrays. Slides were scanned using an Agilent Scanner. Genes differentially expressed between Met-5A and the MPM cell lines were identified on the basis of P-value and fold change.

Project description:Leptospirosis is a re-emerging tropical infectious disease caused by the pathogenic Leptospira spp. The different host innate immune responses were partially related to the different severity of leptospirosis. In this study, we employed transcriptomics and cytokine array to comparatively calculate the responses of murine peritoneal macrophages (MPM) and human peripheral blood monocytes (HBM) to leptospiral infection, and uncover a series of different expression regulations of these two immune cells. The regulation percentages in several biological processes of MPM, such as the antigen process and presentation, the regulation of membrane potential, and the innate immune response, etc., were much greater than those of HBM (>2 folds). In HBM and MPM, the CASP8 and FADD-like apoptosis regulator genes were significantly up-regulated, which supported previous results that the caspase-8/3 pathway plays an important role in macrophage apoptosis during leptospiral infection. The key component of complement pathway, C3, was only up-regulated in MPM. Several cytokines (e.g. IL-10, TNF-alpha) were differently expressed at both mRNA and protein level in MPM and HBM. The differences in the transcriptomics and the cytokine expression revealed in this study were partially consistent with the different outcomes of the chronic and acute leptospirosis; thus, these findings facilitated further molecular study on the innate immune response to leptospiral infection. Murine peritoneal macrophages (MPM) and human peripheral blood monocytes (HBM) were infected by pathogenic Leptospira. The host cells were collected at 1h, 2h, and 4h after infection. The uninfected macrophage sample was designed as a negative control. Three biological replicates were designed for each sample type. There were totally 24 hybridizations (12 for MPM, and 12 for HBM) included in this submission.

Project description:The transcription factor E2A is essential for lymphocyte development. In this study, we describe a recurrent E2A gene deletion in at least 70% of patients with Sézary syndrome (SS), a subtype of T cell lymphoma. Loss of E2A results in enhanced proliferation and cell cycle progression via derepression of the proto-oncogene MYC and the cell cycle regulator CDK6. Furthermore, by examining the gene expression profile of SS cells following restoration of E2A expression, we identify a number of E2A-regulated genes that interfere with oncogenic signaling pathways including the Ras pathway. Several of these genes are down-regulated or lost in primary SS tumor cells. These data demonstrate a tumor suppressor function of E2A in human lymphoid cells and could help to develop new treatment strategies for human lymphomas with altered E2A activity. The E2A-deficient Sézary cell line Seax was transiently transfected with the E2A-expression constructs E47myc (a myc-tagged E47 construct) or E47-forced dimer (a construct coding for two covalently linked E47 molecules), respectively. Every experiment was performed as two replicates accompanied by control transfections with a Mock plasmid.

Project description:The prognosis of infant B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (iB-ALL) remains dismal, especially in patients harboring the MLL-AF4 (KTM2A-AFF1) rearrangement, which arises prenatally in early hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). MLL-AF4+ B-ALL shows a bimodal localization of the MLL gene breakpoint within the MLL break cluster region, and two subgroups of patients based on the gene expression pattern of the HOXA/MEIS cluster have been identified. The pathogenic mechanisms in MLL-AF4+ B-ALL are challenging to study functionally due to the absence of faithful human cellular models recapitulating the disease phenotype and latency. Here, we assess the molecular contribution and leukemogenic capacity of MLL breakpoints occurring in either intron 10 (MLLi10, centromeric) or intron 12 (MLLi12, telomeric) in ontogenically-different human HSPCs sourced prenatally (fetal liver) and neonatally (cord blood). CRISPR-Cas9-induced MLL-AF4 (MA) targeting either MLLi10 (Mi10A) or MLLi12 (Mi12A) causes MA-driven in vitro myeloid immortalization in both fetal liver- and cord blood-CD34+ HSPCs. The cellular ontogeny and the location of the MLL breakpoint influenced the capacity of MLL-edited CD34+ HSPCs to initiate pro-B-ALL in vivo, which faithfully recapitulated the molecular, transcriptomic and methylome profiles of patients with primary MA+ iB-ALL. This dataset contains the DNA methylation information (Illumina MethylationEPIC Beadchip platform) of MLL-edited CD34+ cells (i10 or i12). BCPs, used as controls, were obtained from E-MTAB-8505
