Dysregulated gene expression predicts tumor aggressiveness in African-American prostate cancer patients.

ABSTRACT: Molecular mechanisms underlying the health disparity of prostate cancer (PCa) have not been fully determined. In this study, we applied bioinformatic approach to identify and validate dysregulated genes associated with tumor aggressiveness in African American (AA) compared to Caucasian American (CA) men with PCa. We retrieved and analyzed microarray data from 619 PCa patients, 412 AA and 207 CA, and we validated these genes in tumor tissues and cell lines by Real-Time PCR, Western blot, immunocytochemistry (ICC) and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analyses. We identified 362 differentially expressed genes in AA men and involved in regulating signaling pathways associated with tumor aggressiveness. In PCa tissues and cells, NKX3.1, APPL2, TPD52, LTC4S, ALDH1A3 and AMD1 transcripts were significantly upregulated (p?

Evidence of dynamically dysregulated gene expression pathways in hyperresponsive B cells from African American lupus patients.

Project description:Recent application of gene expression profiling to the immune system has shown a great potential for characterization of complex regulatory processes. It is becoming increasingly important to characterize functional systems through multigene interactions to provide valuable insights into differences between healthy controls and autoimmune patients. Here we apply an original systematic approach to the analysis of changes in regulatory gene interconnections between in Epstein-Barr virus transformed hyperresponsive B cells from SLE patients and normal control B cells. Both traditional analysis of differential gene expression and analysis of the dynamics of gene expression variations were performed in combination to establish model networks of functional gene expression. This Pathway Dysregulation Analysis identified known transcription factors and transcriptional regulators activated uniquely in stimulated B cells from SLE patients.

Microarray comparison of prostate tumor gene expression in African-American and Caucasian American males: a pilot project study.

Project description:African American Men are 65% more likely to develop prostate cancer and are twice as likely to die of prostate cancer, than are Caucasian American Males. The explanation for this glaring health disparity is still unknown; although a number of different plausible factors have been offered including genetic susceptibility and gene-environment interactions. We favor the hypothesis that altered gene expression plays a major role in the disparity observed in prostate cancer incidence and mortality between African American and Caucasian American Males. To discover genes or gene expression pattern(s) unique to African American or to Caucasian American Males that explain the observed prostate cancer health disparity in African American males, we conducted a micro array pilot project study that used prostate tumors with a Gleason score of 6. We compared gene expression profiling in tumors from African-American Males to prostate tumors in Caucasian American Males. A comparison of case-matched ratios revealed at least 67 statistically significant genes that met filtering criteria of at least +/- 4.0 fold change and p < 0.0001. Gene ontology terms prevalent in African American prostate tumor/normal ratios relative to Caucasian American prostate tumor/normal ratios included interleukins, progesterone signaling, Chromatin-mediated maintenance and myeloid dendritic cell proliferation. Functional in vitro assays are underway to determine roles that selected genes in these onotologies play in contributing to prostate cancer development and health disparity.

Gene expression profiling of the prostate biopsy samples from African American and European American prostate cancer patients

Project description:Prostate cancer (PCa) tends to be more aggressive and lethal in African Americans (AA) compared to European Americans (EA). To further understand the biological factors accounting for the PCa disparities observed in AA and EA patients, we performed gene profiling analysis using Affymetrix human exon 1.0 ST arrays to identify the differentially expressed genes in AA and EA patients. 35 prostate biopsy specimens (tumor and adjacent normal tissues) were collected from 20 African American and 15 European American prostate cancer patients. RNA samples, purified from the collected biopy specimens, were process and applied to Affymetrix human exon ST 1.0 arrays. Array data was normalized, batch corrected and analyzed (1-way ANOVA) using Partek Genomics Suite program.

Gene expression profiling of African-American prostate cancer

Project description:African-American (AA) men have both a higher incidence and significantly higher mortality rates from prostate cancer (PCa) than European American (EA) men. In this study we have carried out a detailed analysis of both CNAs and gene expression changes in PCas from AA men compared to their matched benign tissues. We have identified MNX1 as a novel androgen regulated oncogene that is upregulated to a greater degree in AA PCa compared to EA PCa. Furthermore, RGS12 is a novel tumor suppressor on 4p16.3 that is preferentially deleted in AA PCa which negatively regulates MNX1 expression.

Genomic profiling of prostate cancer in African-American patients

Project description:African-Americans with prostate cancer tend to have a more aggressive form of the disease, as compared to their Caucasian counterparts. Nevertheless, African-Americans tend to be underrepresented in most molecular profiling studies of prostate cancer. To investigate DNA copy number alterations (CNAs) in prostate cancer from a cohort of African-Americans, we profiled 20 tumors (each with paired normal) for 500,000 SNPs.

Evidence of Dynamically Dysregulated Gene Expression Pathways in Hyper-responsive B Cells from African American Lupus Patients

Project description:In this report we applied standard and original methods of analysis of gene expression microarray data to delineate differences in the molecular pathways impacted by stimulation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) transformed B cells derived from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and normal unrelated controls. In order to understand the dynamics and interconnections the B cell molecular pathways, the system was perturbed with a biologically relevant signal, co-crosslinking of the B cell antigen receptor (BCR) and FcγR2b and global gene expression changes were assessed at various timepoints post-stimulation. Both traditional analysis of differential gene expression and analysis of the dynamics of gene expression variations were performed. Combining these two methods in an analysis process we call Pathway Dysregulation Analysis allows us to establish model networks of functional gene expression important for B cell signaling responses and elucidate gene expression regulatory interconnections disrupted in B cells from individuals with lupus. Through this technique, we found two main groups of gene associations changed significantly with the disease phenotype, which included genes with established controlling function of the B cell activation, and genes involved in apoptosis initiation or prevention.
