Project description:Medulloblastoma, the most common malignant pediatric brain tumour, disseminates by shedding cells into the cerebrospinal fluid, which then re-implant to cover the surface of the brain and spinal cord. Metastases are a very poor prognostic sign at presentation and are usually lethal at recurrence. Mechanisms driving dissemination have been described in the bulk primary tumour, with the underlying assumption that primary tumour and metastases are biologically similar. Here we show that in both mouse and human medulloblastoma, multiple metastases from a single animal are extremely similar, but are genetically highly divergent from the primary tumour. Clonal genetic events in the metastases can be demonstrated in a restricted sub-clone of the primary tumour, suggesting that only rare cells within the primary tumour have the ability to metastasize. Failure to account for the bicompartmental nature of primary and metastatic medulloblastoma represents a major barrier to the development of effective targeted therapies.

Failure to account for the bicompartmental nature of primary and metastatic medulloblastoma represents a major barrier to the development of effective targeted therapies. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from cryopreserved human medulloblastoma tissue samples. Copy number analysis of Affymetrix SNP6 arrays was performed for 17 pediatric medulloblastoma samples. Samples comprise a series of 7 patient-matched primary/metastatic cases.

Project description:Transient abnormal myelopoiesis (TAM) is a clonal pre-leukemic disorder that progresses to myeloid leukemia of Down syndrome (ML-DS) through the accumulation of genetic alterations. To investigate the mechanism of leukemogenesis in this disorder, a xenograft model of TAM was established using NOD/Shi-scid, IL-2Rγnull mice. In serial transplantations, engrafted TAM-derived cells showed the emergence of divergent subclones with another GATA1 mutation and various CNAs, including a 16q deletion and 1q gain, which are clinically associated with ML-DS. These results suggest that genetically heterogeneous subclones with varying leukemia-initiating potential already exist in the neonatal TAM phase, and ML-DS may develop from a pool of such minor clones through clonal selection.

Project description:We analyzed the protein-coding and non-coding gene expression profiles of 64 samples of prostate cancer primary tumors. All samples were collected between 1998 and 2001 with informed consent from patients subjected to radical prostatectomy at Hospital Sirio-Libanes in São Paulo. Selected patients were identified with clinical Stage T1-2 prostate cancer and no lymph node involvement, and received no adjuvant treatment after surgery as long as they remained recurrence-free. Biochemical recurrence was defined as an increase in patient blood PSA level to 0.2 ng per mL of blood at any time during the 5-year follow-up after prostatectomy. For this kind of experiment, also called self-self hybridization, the microarrays were cohybridized with each of Cy3- and Cy5-labeled cRNA replicates. This strategy has been used to derive intensity-dependent cutoffs to classify a gene as differentially expressed or divergent in comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) studies. The comparative analysis of constant fold change cutoffs and intensity-dependent ones has been extensively discussed, showing a superior performance of the intensity-dependent strategy. For the validation dataset processing, reference values obtained with the training dataset processin were applied to normalize the validation dataset. These values were: Average ranked intensities (quantile normalization), batch information (batch adjustment), and gene average and standard deviations (z-score transformation. Here we describe the validation of the gene expression profile comprised of 32 protein-coding mRNAs and 6 intronic non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in an independent set of 22 samples, 16 from recurrence-free patients and 6 recurrent patients. In order to compare the expression levels of training and independent validation samples, gene intensity levels of samples in the validation dataset were transformed using normalization factors that had been generated with the training dataset.
