Copy number variants (CNVs) underlie many aspects of human phenotypic diversity and provide the raw material for gene duplication and gene family expansion. However, our understanding of their evolutionary significance remains limited. We performed comparative genomic hybridization on a single human microarray platform to identify CNVs among the genomes of 30 humans and 30 chimpanzees as well as fixed copy number differences between species. We found that human and chimpanzee CNVs occur in ortho ...[more]

Project description:A large-scale functional genomics study revealed shifting energy generating processes in white muscle during the final 1,300 km migration of wild sockeye salmon to their spawning grounds in the Fraser River, British Columbia. In 2006, Lower Adams stock sockeye salmon ceased feeding after passing the Queen Charlotte Islands, 850 km from the Fraser River. Enhanced protein turnover and reduced transcription of actin, muscle contractile and heme-related proteins were early starvation responses in saltwater. Arrival to the estuarine environment triggered massive protein turnover through induction of proteasoma and lysosomal proteolysis and protein biosynthesis, and a shift from anaerobic glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation. Response to entry into freshwater was modest, with up-regulation of heat shock proteins and nitric oxide biosynthesis. High river temperatures resulted in a strong defense/immune response and high mortalities in 50% of fish. Arrival to the spawning grounds triggered further up-regulation of oxidative phosphorylation and proteolysis, down-regulation of protein biosynthesis and helicase activity, and continued down-regulation of muscle proteins and most glycolytic enzymes. However, sharp up-regulation of PFK-I indicated induction of glycolytic potential at the spawning grounds. The identification of potential environmental cues triggering genome-wide transcriptional shifts in white muscle associated with migration and the strong activation of proteasomal proteolysis were both novel findings. Keywords: Functional genomics study on wild-caught fish The experiment was based on expression profiles of white muscle tissue collected from wild migrating adult sockeye salmon during their return spawning migration back to the Fraser River. Fish were collected from seven sites along the final 1,300 km migration path, and white muscle samples were quickly frozen in liquid nitrogen upon capture. Marine sampling sites included (from north to south) the Queen Charlotte Islands (QCI), Johnstone Strait (JS), Juan de Fuca Strait (JDFS), and the Strait of Georgia (SOG). Freshwater sampling sites included Whonnock (W), Savona (SV) and the Lower Adams Spawning Grounds. Genetically-based stock ID was used to identify the natal sites of fish collected from the wild. The experiment was designed to profile the transcriptional shifts associated with migration of the Adams River stock complex. The total experiment included 80 microarray slides, with a minimum biological replicate size per site of 6 (SV), and maximum of 18 (JS) (see supplemental table for details). Additional intra-site variables, which could only be addressed in some sites, included sex (female biased) and river entry timing (for JS, JDFS and W sites; identified through radio-tracking of marine collected fish). Total RNA was amplified (1 round) with MessageAmpTMII-96 kit (Ambion, TX, USA), and reverse transcribed to cDNA before labelling with ALEXA dyes using the Invitrogen Indirect Labelling Kit. The experiment was based on a reference design, with the reference containing the combined aRNA of all individuals used in the experiment. Individual samples were labelled with Alexa 555 and the reference control with Alexa 647, with no dye flips included. A single technical replicate of one SV fish (replicate 5) was included in the experimental design. This experiment is part of a larger white muscle experiment containing additional sockeye salmon stocks.

Project description:To prospectively identify new oncogenes implicated in lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma pathogenesis, we investigated chromosome 3 aberrations in advanced tumours using arrayCGH. Chromosome 3 aberrations are indeed among the most frequent alterations in lung SCC and correlate with SCC patient's poor prognosis. We have precisely mapped regions of recurrent losses at 3p and gains at 3q25-qter in a series of lung SCC (GSE14859) amd moreover uncover 3q26.3-q27 high level amplifications in 20% of tumours. These amplicons were precisely mapped in these tumors using arraCGH with a 3q26.3 dedicated tiling array. Keywords : ArrayCGH, lung Squamous Cell Carcinoma, 3q26.3, SOX2 Keywords: ArrayCGH Profiling of 5 advanced (stage III) lung SCC using a chromosome 3 array providing 3q26.3-q27 tiling coverage. Replicates : each array contains three replicates per clone and each sample is hybridized to two arrays, results are subsequently averaged.

Project description:MicroRNAs regulate the biological aggressiveness of colorectal cancer (CRC) cells and might serve as potential prognostic factors and therapeutic targets. In this study, we therefore globally profiled microRNAs associated with aggressive growth in CRC cells, in an attempt to identify novel prognostic biomarkers in CRC patients. In detail, two different CRC cell lines (Caco-2 and HRT-18) with completely different growth rates and different E-cadherin expression were profiled for differences in more than 1000 human microRNAs by using microarray technology. Two-condition experiment, HRT-18 vs. Caco-2. Biological replicates: 3, independently grown and harvested. On each array, one BR of HRT-18 cells was directly compared to one BR of Caco-2 cells (serving as reference sample). All hybridizations were repeated with reversed dye assignment (dye-swap) as technical replicates.

Project description:The chimpanzee is the only model other than man for investigating the pathogenesis of viral hepatitis types A through E. Studies of the host response, including microarray analyses, have relied on the close relationship between these two primate species: chimpanzee samples are commonly tested with human-based reagents. In this study, the host response to two dissimilar viruses, hepatitis E virus (HEV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV), was compared in multiple experimentally-infected chimpanzees. Affymetrix U133+2.0 human microarray chips were used to assess the entire transcriptome in serial liver biopsies obtained over the course of the infections. The comparison utilized a permutational t-test-based analysis of selected time points. More specifically, baseline samples were compared with post-inoculation samples that were strategically chosen based on their relationship to viremia, and probe sequences were aligned to the human and chimpanzee genome sequences to assess their relative sensitivity for detecting differentially expressed genes. Regardless of the viral infection, the alignment of differentially expressed genes to the human genome sequence resulted in a larger number of genes being identified when compared with alignment to the chimpanzee genome sequence. This probably reflects the lesser refinement of gene annotation for chimpanzees. In general, the two viruses demonstrated very distinct temporal changes in host response genes, although both RNA viruses induced genes that were involved in many of the same biological systems, including interferon-induced genes. The host response to HCV infection was more robust than the response to HEV infection. Three chimpanzees were inoculated intravenously with the hepatitis C virus: chimp 1628 was infected with < 100 infectious doses (ID) of the H77 strain (genotype 1a) (30); chimp 1417 was infected with an unknown titer, in serum, of the HC-J6 strain (genotype 2a) (31); chimp 1422 was infected with an unknown titer, in serum, of the T.N. strain (genotype 1a) (35). Four chimpanzees (CH1616, CH1618, CH1374 and CH1375) were inoculated intravenously with 0.5 ml of the HEV SAR55 strain (genotype 1) at approximately 10^6 ID. Grouping of the biological replicates was based on viremia: groups consisted of the first positive week (and the second positive week for HCV), the peak positive week, the last positive week, the first negative week and the fourth negative week. There were 3 biological replicates for HCV. The 4 replicates for HEV were both biological and technical. For chimp 1417, 7 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 17. For chimp 1422, 8 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 13. For chimp 1628, 8 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 19. For chimp 1374, 6 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 8. For chimp 1375, 4 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 8. For chimp 1616, 5 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 7. For chimp 1618, 6 samples were taken between weeks 0 and 8. Normalized probe set level data not provided for individual Sample records. Processed data is available on Series record.

Project description:Recently we had discovered a solid cord like structure at the limbus of human eyes, termed as the Limbal Epithelial Crypt (LEC). It arises from the undersurface of the interpalisade rete ridges and extends towards the conjunctiva over the conjunctival stroma. Anatomical and immunohistochemical studies have shown it to be potentially a Stem Cell Niche. To confirm this hypothesis we conducted comparative gene expression profile of LEC with pathway and Geneontology studies in comparison with other ocular surface epithelial regions such as cornea, limbus, LEC stroma and conjunctiva. Frozen tissue blocks of corneoscleral buttons dissected from cadaver eyes were cryosectioned. These tissue sections from different ocular surface regions were laser microdissected. Extracted RNA was amplified & hybridized to 30,000k Human spotted cDNA microarray chips. Raw data obtained with Genepix Pro6 software was filtered, normalized & analysed on BASE & Jexpresspro software. Unpaired T-Test, Significance Analysis of Microarrays were performed on the data. Database for Annotation, Visualisation, and Integrated Discovery (DAVID) (http://www.DAVID.niaid.nih.gov) and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) was used to determine the enriched GO terms and pathways in the differentially expressed genes. Quantitative gene expression analysis (qPCR) and immunohistochemistry was performed on the genes of interest. Statistical analysis for real time PCR was performed on SPSS16 to determine the normalised expression of gene of interest on ocular surface regions. Samples were prepared from five human ocular surface epithelial regions such as Cornea, Limbus, LEC, LEC Stroma, Conjunctiva. There were four replicates in each groups except Cornea and Conjunctiva with 3 each. The Standard Probe (SP) was prepared from mixing equal amount of Corneal and conjunctival epithelial RNA followed by ethanol precipitation. Samples were labelled with Cy5 dye and Standard Probe with Cy3 Dye. These were mixed in equal amount to prepare hybrid probes which were then hybridised to microarray slide.

Project description:BACKGROUND: Array Comparative Genomic Hybridization (aCGH) is a rapidly evolving technology that still lacks complete standardization. Yet, it is of great importance to obtain robust and reproducible data to enable meaningful multiple hybridization comparisons. Special difficulties arise when aCGH is performed on archival formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue due to its variable DNA quality. Recently, we have developed an effective DNA quality test that predicts suitability of archival samples for BAC aCGH. METHODS: In this report, we first used DNA from a cancer cell-line (SKBR3) to optimize the aCGH protocol for automated hybridization, and subsequently optimized and validated the procedure for FFPE breast cancer samples. We aimed for highest throughput, accuracy, and reproducibility applicable to FFPE samples, which can also be important in future diagnostic use. RESULTS: Our protocol of automated array-CGH on archival FFPE ULS-labeled DNA showed very similar results compared with published data and our previous manual hybridization method. CONCLUSION: This report combines automated aCGH on unamplified archival FFPE DNA using non-enzymatic ULS labeling, and describes an optimized protocol for this combination resulting in improved quality and reproducibility. In this study, we optimized the BAC araay-CGH protocol for automated hybridization for FFPE breast cancer samples. We have tested hybridization temperature and duration, different hybridization buffer conditions, and post-hybridization washing.
