Diagnostic microRNA profiling in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL).

ABSTRACT: Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCLs) are the most frequent primary skin lymphomas. Nevertheless, diagnosis of early disease has proven difficult because of a clinical and histologic resemblance to benign inflammatory skin diseases. To address whether microRNA (miRNA) profiling can discriminate CTCL from benign inflammation, we studied miRNA expression levels in 198 patients with CTCL, peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTL), and benign skin diseases (psoriasis and dermatitis). Using microarrays, we show that the most induced (miR-326, miR-663b, and miR-711) and repressed (miR-203 and miR-205) miRNAs distinguish CTCL from benign skin diseases with > 90% accuracy in a training set of 90 samples and a test set of 58 blinded samples. These miRNAs also distinguish malignant and benign lesions in an independent set of 50 patients with PTL and skin inflammation and in experimental human xenograft mouse models of psoriasis and CTCL. Quantitative (q)RT-PCR analysis of 103 patients with CTCL and benign skin disorders validates differential expression of 4 of the 5 miRNAs and confirms previous reports on miR-155 in CTCL. A qRT-PCR-based classifier consisting of miR-155, miR-203, and miR-205 distinguishes CTCL from benign disorders with high specificity and sensitivity, and with a classification accuracy of 95%, indicating that miRNAs have a high diagnostic potential in CTCL.

Project description:Cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) are the most frequent primary skin lymphomas. Nevertheless, diagnosis of early disease has proven difficult due to a clinical and histological resemblance to benign inflammatory skin diseases. To address if microRNA (miRNA) profiling can discriminate CTCL from benign inflammation, we study miRNA expression in 199 patients with CTCL, peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTL), and benign skin diseases (psoriasis and dermatitis). Using microarrays we show that the most induced- (miR-326, miR-663b, miR-711) and repressed- (miR-203, miR-205) miRNAs distinguish CTCL from benign skin diseases with > 90% accuracy in a training set of 90 samples and a test set of 58 blinded samples. These miRNAs also distinguish malignant and benign lesions in an independent set of 50 patients with PTL and skin inflammation and in experimental human xenograft mouse models of psoriasis and CTCL. Q-RT-PCR analysis of 104 patients with CTCL and benign skin disorders validates differential expression of 4 out of the 5 miRNAs and confirms previous reports on miR-155 in CTCL. A q-RT-PCR-based classifier consisting of miR-155, miR-203, and miR-205 distinguishes CTCL from benign disorders with high specificity, sensitivity, and a classification accuracy of 95% indicating that miRNAs have a high diagnostic potential in CTCL. miRNA microarray. From each sample 100 ng of total RNA was labeled with Hy3 fluorescent dye using the miRCURY LNA Array power labeling kit (Exiqon, Denmark). All samples were labeled the same day with the same master mix, in order to minimize technical variation. The Hy3-labelled samples were hybridized to miRCURY LNA arrays (v11.0) (Exiqon, Denmark), containing capture probes targeting all human miRNAs registered in the miRBASE version 15.0 at the Sanger Institute. The hybridization was performed overnight at 56Â°C according to manufacturer specifications using a Tecan HS4800 hybridization station (Tecan, Austria). Since it was not possible to hybridize all arrays in one go, samples were randomly split into 5 batches as to minimize day to day variation in the hybridization process. After hybridization the microarray slides were scanned using an Agilent G2565BA Microarray Scanner System (Agilent Technologies, Inc., USA) at 5Âµm resolution, and the resulting TIFF images were analyzed using the ImaGene 8.0 software on standard settings (BioDiscovery, Inc., USA).
