Gene expression analysis of cancer-related fatigue in whole blood from breast cancer survivors

ABSTRACT: Cancer-related fatigue is one of the most frequent complaints among breast cancer survivors, with a major negative impact on general life. However, the etiology behind this syndrome is still unraveled. Gene expression analysis was performed on whole blood samples from breast cancer survivors classified as either fatigued or non-fatigued at two consecutive time points. The analysis identified several gene sets concerning plasma and B cell pathways as different between the fatigue and non-fatigue groups, suggesting that a deregulation in these pathways might underlie the fatigue syndrome. The fatigue group also showed a higher mean level of leucocytes, lymphocytes and neutrophiles compared with the non-fatigue group, thus further implicating the immune system in the biology behind the fatigue syndrome. Keywords: Blood RNA and late side effects

Keywords: Blood RNA and late side effects Breast cancer survivors treated with adjuvant radiotherapy at The Norwegian Radium Hospital between 1998 and 2002 were invited to participate in a study assessing late treatment effects in breast cancer survivors. In the present study, gene expression analysis was performed on whole blood samples from breast cancer survivors with and without persistent fatigue, to look for different expression patterns that might shed light on the biology behind cancer-related fatigue.

Health outcomes in SARS survivors 18 years after infection: A longitudinal cohort study

Project description:We aimed to characterize the long-term health outcomes of survivors of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and determine their recovery status and possible immunological basis. Although health outcomes continued to improve, SARS survivors still suffered from physical fatigue, osteoporosis, and necrosis of the femoral head 18 years after discharge, possibly related to plasma metabolic disorders and immunological alterations.

Molecular-genetic correlates of fatigue in cancer patients receiving localized external beam radiation therapy

Project description:The etiology behind cancer-related fatigue (CRF) is currently unknown. The physiological mechanisms of CRF are based on limited evidence that genetic factors, energy expenditure, metabolism, aerobic capacity, and the individual's immune response to inflammation are responsible for the experience of CRF. Gene expression profiling using microarray analysis from white blood cells of men with non-metastatic prostate cancer shows significant, differential expression of 463 probesets during localized external beam radiation therapy (EBRT). Pathway analysis shows a central role of SNCA (alpha-synuclein gene) among these differentially expressed probesets. Significant expression of SNCA was confirmed by qPCR (p<.001) and ELISA (p<.001) over time during EBRT. A significant correlation was noted between averaged fatigue scores and delta CT values of SNCA expression using confirmatory qPCR over time during EBRT (R=-.90, p=.006). Development of fatigue experienced by these men during EBRT may be mediated by SNCA expression. Pathways related to alpha-synuclein may serve as useful biomarkers to understand the mechanisms behind the development of fatigue. A longitudinal design exploring the association between changes in gene expression and fatigue symptoms of men with non-metastatic prostate cancer receiving external beam radiation therapy. Blood samples were collected from ten subjects at 7 timepoints for microarray analysis: baseline (before EBRT); days 1, 7, 14, 21, 42 of EBRT; and 30 days post-EBRT. Baseline data obtained from subjects were compared to data obtained from age-, race-, and gender-matched healthy controls.

DNA Methylation Patterns Associated with Fatigue in Primary SjÃ¶grenâs Syndrome

Project description:Genome-wide analysis of DNA methylation profiles from patients with SjÃ¶gren's syndrome with high versus low fatigue levels using the Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation450 Beadchip array. Background Chronic fatigue is a common, disabling, and poorly understood phenomenon. Recent studies indicate that epigenetic mechanisms may be involved in the expression of fatigue, a prominent feature of primary SjÃ¶grenâs syndrome (pSS). The aim of this study was to investigate whether DNA methylation profiles of whole blood are associated with fatigue in patients with pSS. Methods 48 pSS patients with high (n=24) or low (n=24) fatigue as measured by a visual analogue scale were included. Genome-wide DNA methylation was investigated using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip array. Case-case study including SjÃ¶gren's patients with high fatigue (n=24) and patients with low fatigue levels (n=24)

Deep phenotyping of Post-infectious Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome [Protein]

Project description:Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) is a disabling disorder that may occur following an infection, yet the clinical phenotype is poorly defined, the pathophysiology is unknown, and no disease-modifying treatments are available. We used rigorous criteria to recruit a cohort of post-infectious ME/CFS (PI-ME/CFS) volunteers (n=17) with matched healthy controls (n=21) to conduct deep clinical and biological phenotyping using an extensive battery of tests. Among the many physical and cognitive complaints, one defining feature of PI-ME/CFS was an alteration of effort preference, rather than physical or central fatigue, due to dysfunction of integrative brain regions potentially associated with central catechol pathway dysregulation, with consequences on autonomic functioning and physical deconditioning. Immune profiling suggested chronic antigenic stimulation with increase in naïve and decrease in switched memory B-cells. Alterations in gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells and metabolic pathways were consistent with cellular phenotypic studies and demonstrated differences according to sex. Together these clinical abnormalities and biomarker differences provide unique insight into the underlying pathophysiology of PI-ME/CFS, which may guide future intervention.
