Project description:We performed expression profiling of 24 meningioma and two dura controls analyzing 55000 transcripts including 18300 known genes. We compared expression in meningioma vs. dura, expression of low grade (WHO I) vs. higher-grade (WHO II and WHO IIII) tumors and expression of meningothelial and syncytial meningioma vs. fibroblastic meningioma. Gene expression was analysed in 24 meningioma including eight of each WHO grade and two dura controls analyzing 55000 transcripts including 18300 known genes.

Project description:A subset of breast cancer cells displays increased ability to self-renew and reproduce breast cancer heterogeneity (so called, breast tumour-initiating cells or BT-ICs). As microRNAs (miRNAs) control developmental programs in stem cells, BT-ICs may also rely on specific miRNA profiles for their sustained activity. We analyzed miRNA expression in a model of putative BT-ICs and found that miR-30 family regulates growth under “stemness” conditions. A target screening revealed that miR-30 family modulates the expression of apoptosis and proliferation-related genes. The importance of miR-30 in tumour progression and breast cancer stemness was demonstrated in vivo using a mouse mammary cancer model. This is the first analysis of target prediction in a whole family of microRNAs potentially involved in survival of putative BT-ICs. Total RNA from cells transfected with Pre-miR-30 and KD-miR-30 family and control KD-miR-159 was extracted and reverse-transcribed and hybrized on HT12 Human bead chips

Project description:We present here a new expression profiling study of the 60 cell lines of the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Developmental Therapeutics program (DTP) drug screen (NCI-60) using the 41,000-probe Agilent Whole Human Genome Oligo Microarray. The expression levels of ∼21,000 genes were measured. The profiling study includes quadruplicate technical replicates for six cell lines and duplicates for the remaining cell lines. The resulting data sets are freely available and searchable online in the CellMiner database (http://discover.nci.nih.gov).

Project description:Molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of meningioma are not fully elucidated. In this study, we established differential gene expression profiles between meningiomas and brain arachnoidal tissue by using Affymetrix GeneChip Human U133 Plus 2.0 Array. KEGG pathway analysis demonstrated that PI3K/Akt and TGFβ signaling pathways were up-regulated in fibroblastic meningioma, and focal adhesion and ECM-receptor interaction pathways were activated in anaplastic meningioma. EGFL6 was one of the most up-regulated genes in fibroblastic meningioma by microarray analysis. Quantitative real-time PCR demonstrated that benign meningiomas had significantly higher levels of EGFL6 mRNA than brain arachnoidal tissue and atypical and anaplastic meningiomas (P<0.001). EGFL6 gene was also highly expressed in ovarian cancer, but expressed lowly in other investigated tumors. ELISA analysis showed that patients with benign meningiomas and ovarian cancers had the highest serum levels of EGFL6 (mean concentration: 672 pg/ml for benign meningiomas, and 616 pg/ml for ovarian cancers). Healthy people and patients with other tumors, however, had low levels of serum EGFL6. In conclusion, we proposed that activation of PI3K/Akt and integrin-mediated signaling pathways was involved in the pathogenesis of benign and anaplastic meningiomas, respectively. We also presented evidence that EGFL6 was overexpressed in benign meningioma tissues and serum.

Project description:Aberrant DNA methylation and histone modifications both contribute to carcinogenesis, but how these two epigenetic factors interact to impact gene expression remain unclear. To address this issue, we studied gene expression profiles, DNA methylation and two key histone modifications (H3K4me3 and H3K27me3), in two normal melanocytes (HEMn and HEMa) and two melanoma cell lines SK-MEL-28 and LOXIMVI. Using these data, we analyzed the relationship between epigenetic factors and gene expression status in both normal and melanoma cells, and the impact of epigenetic switches on gene expression change during melanomagenesis. Each of the two normal melanocytes (HEMn and HEMa) and the two melanoma cell lines SK-MEL-28 and LOXIMVI was cultured in triplicate. For each cell line, the same culture conditions and cell density were applied to the triplicates. Total RNA was extracted and microarray analysis was performed for genome-wide gene expression profiling. Using the Sentrix Human-HT12 v4 Beadchip, all four cell samples, each in triplicate, were examined in 12 individual arrays on a same beadchip. Thus, together with the data on DNA methylation and histone modifications, we could not only analyze the epigenetic regulation of gene expression in each cell sample, but also investigate the expression change associated with epigenetic changes in melanoma when compared to normal melanocytes.

Project description:This study chronically exposed human lung epithelial BEAS-2B cells to low-dose arsenic trioxide in vitro to elucidate cancer promoting gene signaling networks (GSNs) associated with As-transformed (B-As) cells. Following a six month exposure, exposed cells were assessed for enhanced cell proliferation, colony formation, invasion ability and in vivo tumor formation compared to control cell lines. Collected mRNA was subjected to whole genome expression microarray profiling followed by in silico Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to identify lung carcinogenesis modes of action. B-As cells displayed significant increases in proliferation, colony formation and invasion ability compared to BEAS-2B cells. B-As injections into nude mice resulted in development of primary and secondary metastatic tumors. As exposure resulted in widespread up-regulation of genes associated with mitochondrial metabolism and increased ROS protection suggesting mitochondrial dysfunction. Carcinogenic initiation via ROS and epigenetic mechanisms was further supported by altered DNA repair, histone, and ROS-sensitive signaling. NF-κB, MAPK and NCOR1 signaling disrupted PPARα/δ-mediated lipid homeostasis. A ‘pro-cancer’ GSN identified increased survival, proliferation, inflammation, metabolism, anti-apoptosis and mobility signaling. IPA-ranked signaling networks identified altered p21, EF1α, Akt, MAPK, and NF-κB signaling networks promoting genetic disorder, altered cell cycle, cancer and changes in nucleic acid and energy metabolism. In conclusion, transformed B-As cells with their whole genome GSN profile provide an in vitro As model for future lung cancer signaling research and data for chronic As exposure risk assessment. Whole genome expression profiling was conducted on arsenic (III) oxide-exposed human immortalized lung epithelial cells (BEAS-2B) following 6 month in vitro chronic exposure. As2O3 exposed cells (B-As) gene expression were compared to unexposed, passage control (B-Control) cell gene expression. Three B-As and four B-Control biological replicate cDNA samples were analyzed.

Project description:Whole-genome doubling (polyploidy) is common in angiosperms. Several studies have indicated that it is often associated with molecular, physiological, and phenotypic changes. Mounting evidence has pointed out that micro-RNAs (miRNAs) may have an important role in whole-genome doubling. However, an integrative approach that compares miRNA expression in polyploids is still lacking. Here, a re-analysis of already published RNAseq datasets was performed to identify microRNAs' precursors (pre-miRNAs) in diploids (2x) and tetraploids (4x) of five species (Arabidopsis thaliana L., Morus alba L., Brassica rapa L., Isatis indigotica Fort., and Solanum commersonii Dun). We found 3568 pre-miRNAs, three of which (pre-miR414, pre-miR5538, and pre-miR5141) were abundant in all 2x, and were absent/low in their 4x counterparts. They are predicted to target more than one mRNA transcript, many belonging to transcription factors (TFs), DNA repair mechanisms, and related to stress. Sixteen pre-miRNAs were found in common in all 2x and 4x. Among them, pre-miRNA482, pre-miRNA2916, and pre-miRNA167 changed their expression after polyploidization, being induced or repressed in 4x plants. Based on our results, a common ploidy-dependent response was triggered in all species under investigation, which involves DNA repair, ATP-synthesis, terpenoid biosynthesis, and several stress-responsive transcripts. In addition, an ad hoc pre-miRNA expression analysis carried out solely on 2x vs. 4x samples of S. commersonii indicated that ploidy-dependent pre-miRNAs seem to actively regulate the nucleotide metabolism, probably to cope with the increased requirement for DNA building blocks caused by the augmented DNA content. Overall, the results outline the critical role of microRNA-mediated responses following autopolyploidization in plants.
