Project description:We stratified colorectal tumor samples using a new unsupervised, iterative method based on non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). The resulting five subtypes exhibited activation of specific signaling pathways, and significant differences in microsatellite status and tumor location. We could also align three CRC cell lines panels to these subtypes.

We could also align three CRC cell lines panels to these subtypes. mRNA from 62 colorectal tumor samples was hybridized to Affymetrix HGU133 Plus 2.0 expression arrays. Log2 gene expression values were calculated using RMA.

Project description:Two subclasses of lung squamous cell carcinoma with different gene expression profiles and prognosis identified by hierarchical clustering and validated by non-negative matrix factorization . BACKGROUND: Current clinical and histopathological criteria used to define lung squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs) are insufficient to predict clinical outcome. We attempted to make a clinically-useful classification based on gene expression profiling. METHODS: We used cDNA microarrays with 40386 elements to analyze the gene expression profiles of 48 surgically resected samples of lung SCC. 9 samples of lung adenocarcinoma and 30 of normal lung were also included to give a total of 87 samples analyzed. After gene filtering, the data were subjected to hierarchical clustering and consensus clustering with the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) approach. FINDINGS: Initial analysis by hierarchical clustering allowed division of SCCs into two distinct subclasses. An additional independent round of hierarchical clustering and consensus clustering with the NMF approach provided a validation for the classification. Kaplan-Meier analysis with the log rank test pointed to a non-significant difference in survival (p=0.071) but the likelihood of survival to 6 years was significantly different between the two groups (40.5% vs 81.8%, p=0.014, Z-test). Biological process categories characteristic for each subclass were identified statistically and up-regulation of cell-proliferation related genes was evident in the subclass with a poor prognosis. In the subclass with the better survival, genes involved in differentiated intracellular functions, such as the MAPKKK cascade, ceramide metabolism, or regulation of transcription, were up-regulated.

Project description:Reconstruction of ancient epigenomes by DNA methylation (DNAm) can shed light into the composition of cell types, disease states, and age at death. However, such analysis is hampered by impaired DNA quality and little is known how decomposition affects DNAm. In this study, we determined if EPIC Illumina BeadChip technology is applicable for specimen from mummies of the 18th century CE. Overall, the signal intensity on the microarray was extremely low, but for one of two samples we detected characteristic DNAm signals in a subset of CG dinucleotides (CpGs), which were selected with a stringent processing pipeline. Using only these CpGs we could train epigenetic signatures with reference DNAm profiles of multiple tissues and our predictions were in line with the fact that the specimen was lung tissue of a female 28-year-old donor. Thus, we provide proof of principle that Illumina BeadChips are applicable for DNAm profiling in ancient samples.

Project description:Background: Measurement of genome-wide DNA methylation (DNAm) has become an important avenue for investigating potentially functional changes in various pathological conditions. Illumina Infinium is a relatively inexpensive and user-friendly DNAm microarray platform used by many researchers to measure DNAm on a large scale. However it has been suggested that a subset of probes may give rise to misleading results due to issues related to probe design. To facilitate biologically significant data interpretation, we set out to enhance probe annotation of the newest HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array (with >485,000 probes covering 99% of RefSeq genes). Results: Annotation that was added or expanded on includes 1) SNPs documented in the probe target, 2) probe binding specificity, 3) CpG classification of target sites and 4) gene feature classification of target sites. Probes with documented SNPs within 10bp of the target site and especially those with documented SNPs at the target CpG, were associated with increased within-tissue variation in DNAm. An example of a probe with a SNP at the target CpG was used to demonstrate how sample genotype can confound the measurement of DNAm. 8.6% of probes were identified as non-specific, in other words, these probes map to multiple locations in silico. DNAm measured from these non-specific probes likely represents a combination of DNAm from multiple genomic sites. The expanded biological annotation demonstrated that based on DNAm, grouping probes by alternative CpG classes rather than UCSC islands provides a more distinctive classification system of CpG sites. Finally variable enrichment for tissue-specific differentially methylated probes was noted across CpG classes and gene feature groups, depending on the tissues that were compared. Conclusion: Probes containing SNPs and non-specific probes may affect the assessment of DNAm using the 450k array. Additionally CpG enrichment classes and to a lesser extent gene feature groups were associated with distinct patterns of DNAm. Thus, we recommend that confounded probes be removed from analyses and that genomic trends be considered in analyses of the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip. DNAm arrays offer a powerful approach for which thoughtful use of probe content can be utilized to better understand the biological processes affected. Bisulfite converted DNA from 4 buccal, 4 blood and 4 chorionic villus samples was hybridized to the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array.

Project description:Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) and their small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) hold significant potential for regenerative medicine due to their capabilities for tissue repair. However, the effects of ASC heterogeneity on sEV characteristics and microRNA (miRNA) profiles remain unclear. We investigated ASCs heterogeneity and its changes with aging and cell expansion using bulk RNA-seq from young and old donors across various passages. Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) was used to identify distinct ASC clusters. Small RNA sequencing was performed on sEVs collected from ASC culture supernatants to analyze miRNA profiles. NMF analysis revealed ASC heterogeneity, identifying clusters characterized by ISLR and genes associated with collagen and smooth muscle cells. The miRNA profiles of sEVs matched these ASC clusters, showing variations based on donor age and cell expansion. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that these miRNAs may have distinct functional roles. Our findings show that ASC heterogeneity and sEV miRNA content are significantly influenced by donor age and cell expansion. These variations underscore the necessity of selecting specific ASC-derived sEVs.

Project description:In order to identify key pathways associated with disease aggressiveness and therapeutics resistance in the most agrressive subset of PDAC, we analyzed gene expression profiling of tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues from PDAC cases. Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) clustering, using gene expression profile form PDAC tumors, revealed three patient subsets. A 142-gene signature specific to the subset with the worst patient survival, predicted prognosis and stratified patients with significantly different survival. Mechanistic and functional analyses of most aggressive subset revealed a HNF1B/Clusterin Axis negatively regulate pancreatic cancer progression and potentially be useful in designing novel strategies to attenuate disease progression. Affymetrix data from from these dataset were partially earlier submited by us as GEO accession#: GSE28735 and GSE 62452. The batch effect between the different sets of data was removed using Partek Genomic Suite and this normalized data was submitted to GEO in this submission.
