Project description:DNA from four 29 cases, 38 tumor samples (23 PB, 12 LN, 1 Tonsil, 1 colonic biopsy, 1 spleen) and 29 normal DNA from the same patients were analyzed with Affymetrix SNP 6.0 platform for copy number alterations study. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from blood samples, lymph nodes and other tissues like spleen, tonsil and colonic biopsy
Project description:Reports on common mutations in neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare and clonality of NET metastases has not been investigated in this tumor entity yet. We selected a NET and a the corresponding lymph node and liver metastases as well as the derivative cell lines to screen for somatic mutations in the primary NET and to track the fate of genetic changes (by Affymetrix SNP 6.0 micorarray and targeted resequencing by 454 GS FLX) and during metastasis and in vitro progression. using Affymetrix SNP 6.0 Arrays.
Project description:Deep characterization of a large series of splenic diffuse red pulp lymphomas DNA from 5 tumor samples, corresponding to 4 cases, were analyzed with Affymetrix SNP 6.0 platform for copy number alteration study.
Project description:Genetic variations play an important role in tumor development and metastasis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of leading cause of cancer-related death. Despite improvements in surveillance and clinical treatment strategies, the prognosis of HCC remains dismal. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 array were used to evaluate the genetic characteristics of tumor DNA in 30 HBV-related HCC patients who were underwent liver transplantation. Recurrence related SNPs were selected and validated.
Project description:B-cell Non Hodgkin Lymphoma are a heterogenous group chracterized by a variety of genetic changes, including translocations, deletions and amplifications. Here we analyzed 10 B-NHL lines by Affymetrix SNP 6.0 to detect copy number changes. Specifically, we aim to identify cell lines suitable for testing the consequences of acute reintroduction of candidate tumor suppressor genes as they harbor deletions which include the candidate gene(s).
Project description:Mutations in the PTH1R gene were reported but these mutations are limited to a small subgroup of patients. The etiology of Ollier disease is unknown. We therefore undertook genome-wide copy number and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis using Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays on 37 tumors of 28 Ollier patients in combination with expression array using Illumina Beadarray v3.0 for 7 tumors of 6 patients. We used Affymetrix SNP 6.0 to find out LOH and copy number alterations in Ollier tumors.
Project description:The Affymetrix SNP/CNV (SNP 6.0) platform was used to analyze a cell line model of lymph node metastasis comprised of a poorly metastatic MDA-MB-468GFP human breast adenocarcinoma cell line and its highly metastatic variant (468LN).
Project description:DNA from four 29 cases, 38 tumor samples (23 PB, 12 LN, 1 Tonsil, 1 colonic biopsy, 1 spleen) and 29 normal DNA from the same patients were analyzed with Affymetrix SNP 6.0 platform for copy number alterations study. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from blood samples, lymph nodes and other tissues like spleen, tonsil and colonic biopsy Copy number analysis of Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays was performed for 29 MCL cases samples and their respective matched non-tumor DNA, which were used as references for copy number inference.
Project description:Reports on common mutations in neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare and clonality of NET metastases has not been investigated in this tumor entity yet. We selected a NET and a the corresponding lymph node and liver metastases as well as the derivative cell lines to screen for somatic mutations in the primary NET and to track the fate of genetic changes (by Affymetrix SNP 6.0 micorarray and targeted resequencing by 454 GS FLX) and during metastasis and in vitro progression. using Affymetrix SNP 6.0 Arrays. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from cryo material or cell lines. Copy number analysis of Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays was performed for 4 samples. 60 samples from HapMap database were used as references for copy number inference.
Project description:Genetic variations play an important role in tumor development and metastasis. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of leading cause of cancer-related death. Despite improvements in surveillance and clinical treatment strategies, the prognosis of HCC remains dismal. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 array were used to evaluate the genetic characteristics of tumor DNA in 30 HBV-related HCC patients who were underwent liver transplantation. Recurrence related SNPs were selected and validated. Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded HCC tissues
