Project description:Cutaneous melanoma first metastasizes into sentinel lymph nodes that control the lymphatic drain from the area of the primary tumor. This observation is used clinically for melanoma patients with primary melanomas thicker than 1mm (tumor stage ≥T2a), for these patients sentinel lymph node biopsy has become an important and routinely performed diagnostic procedure. The importance of sentinel node analysis is reflected by a significant better prognosis of melanoma patients with tumor free sentinel nodes compared to patients with metastatic sentinel nodes. Although intensively studied, not much is known about mechanisms responsible for the development of melanoma metastasis.To analyze gene expression in mouse SLNs of M24met tumor bearing animals as compared to tumor free control animals, SLNs were taken at different time points and analyzed for the presence of human M24met to classify SLNs into control, negative, macro metastatic SLN. After categorized SLNs were subjected to microarray analysis. To analyze gene expression in mouse SLNs of human M24met tumor bearing animals as compared to tumor free control animals, SLNs were taken at different time points and analyzed for the presence of human M24met to classify SLNs into control, negative, macro metastatic SLN. Briefly, explanted SLNs were stored in RNA later (Ambion, Austin, TX) and DNA as well as RNA was extracted using AllPrep DNA/RNA Mini Kit and RNeasy Micro Kit (Qiagen, Valencia, CA) according to manufacturer’s instructions. To detect human cells in mouse SLNs we used a polymerase chain reaction method for the detection of a human-specific 850-bp fragment of the alpha-satellite DNA on human chromosome 17. For analysis of gene expression RNA from control SLN from tumor free animals (control), RNA from tumor negative SLN (negative), and RNA from macro metastatic SLN (positive) from tumor bearing animals was used to analyze gene expression on Mouse Genome 430A 2.0 Arrays (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA)

Project description:To identify a panel of Seninel Lymph Node (SLN) genes to aid in risk stratification of patients with tumor-positive SLN, total SLN RNA from 97 SLN-positive melanoma patients were chosen from the Sunbelt Melanoma Trial. Microarray experiments were performed to screen SLN genes in recurrence (=39) versus non-recurrence (=58) group. We identified 20 differentially expressed SLN genes in the recurrence vs. the non-recurrence group.

Project description:Background Breast cancer patients who present in the early stage of disease are affected by metastasis to the axillary group of lymph nodes. The first among this group that is affected is called as sentinel lymph node, and metastasis to this lymph node is crucial for the staging of cancer and the quality of surgical intervention. Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB) that is currently used to assess lymph node metastasis is neither sensitive, nor specific, is time-consuming, thereby necessitating the identification of novel biomarkers that can flag sentinel lymph node metastasis. Methods Breast cancer patients were screened, and those with early stage were recruited in the study. Surgical resection of the breast was followed by identification of sentinel lymph nodes by methylene fluorescent technique. Histo-pathology of fresh frozen section biopsy was used as the gold standard to assign the clinical phenotypes of metastatic (SLNM+) and non-metastatic sentinel lymph nodes (SLNM-). Discovery phase of the experiment included isobaric Tags for Relative and Absolute Quantitation (iTRAQ) technique comprising of six comparative experiments coupled with mass spectrometric analysis on Orbitrap Fusion to identify differentially expressed proteins on Proteome Discoverer 2.4. Functional enrichment and pathway analyses of differentially regulated genes was carried out in DAVID functional annotation tool. Validation was done by ELISA and protein concentrations were used to estimate the ROC for computing diagnostic parameters. Results Based on MS/MS spectra there were 2396 unique protein groups and 81 differentially expressed proteins comparing SLNB + and SLNB -. Nineteen proteins up-regulated, and eight proteins that were down regulated in SLNB+ as compared to SLNB-. Bioinformatic analysis showed the implication of extra cellular matrix proteins and ECM-receptor interaction pathways to be implicated in lymph node metastasis. ELISA confirmed the up-regulation of caveolin 1, collagen α-1, desmin, fibrillin-1, and microfibrillar associated glycoprotein 4 in metastatic, as compared to non-metastatic lymph nodes. These proteins are known to be integral in tumorogenesis, cell proliferation, invasion, cell survival and anti-apoptosis. These proteins have 80%-100%, of sensitivity and specificity to differentiate the two clinical phenotypes. Conclusion Identified extra cellular matrix protein biomarkers have requisite diagnostic parameters to be developed as a translational tool to assess the status of sentinel lymph nodes during mastectomy procedure to guide surgical therapy of axillary lymph nodes in early breast oncology.

Project description:Several studies have demonstrated the de novo formation of lymphatic vessels or the reorganization of lymphatic sinus in tumor-draining lymph nodes, partly preceding the detection of lymphatic metastases. This "lymphovascular niche"is supposed to facilitate the survival of metastatic tumor cells. Few studies on nodal lymphangiogenesis in invasive breast cancer (BC) have been published, not considering tumor-free sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) and tumor types. Specimens of SLN and/ or non-SLN (NSLN) of 95 patients with BC were examined immunohistochemically for expression of the lymphatic endothelial marker D2-40 (podoplanin) on lymphatic vessels and the subcapsular sinus. The number of D2-40-positive lymph vessels in metastases was evaluated with two morphometric methods (Chalkley count and number per HPF). Data was explored with respect to TNM parameters, grading, tumor type, size of metastasis, lymph vessel number and hormone receptor/HER2 status with appropriate statistical tests. Lymphangiogenesis was detected exclusively in and around BC metastases with both methods for lymph vessel quantification being equivalent. Lymph vessel number correlated with the size of metastases, being significantly higher in larger metastases (p < 0.001). There was no significant statistical difference with respect to tumor types. Intranodal lymphangiogenesis could not be verified by D2-40 staining in any of the tumor-free lymph nodes examined. However, D2-40 was frequently detected in sinus endothelial/virgultar cells of the subcapsular sinus, partly with strong uniform positivity. Staining intensity and stained proportion of the subcapsular sinus were markedly heterogeneous, significantly correlating with each other both in SLN and NSLN (p < 0.001). A higher proportion of D2-40 stained subcapsular sinus in SLN was significantly associated with worse overall survival (p = 0.0036) and an independent prognostic parameter in multivariate analysis (p = 0.033, HR 2.87). Further studies are necessary to elucidate the biological and clinical significance of the observed immunophenotypic variations of nodal sinus endothelium.

Project description:Biotechnology-derived therapeutics manufacturing is highly regulated to assure product quality, safety and efficacy. Process conditions are closely monitored as they can influence product characteristics. Culture of mammalian cells at different scales is a vital part of biomanufacturing. Currently, scale up of bioreactors is largely done based on engineering parameters such as oxygen transfer and mixing characteristics. There is a lack of genomic translational studies in mammalian cell culture scale-up that can help delineate measurable cellular attributes for improved process understanding. These could be used for quantifying physiological response of cells due to changes in bioreactor environment. In this study, we identified 18 process-sensitive sentinel genes using microarray statistical analysis, which we further verified by qRT-PCR. These were differentially expressed transcripts between a typical 5 liter bench-scale bubble-aerated and impeller-agitated bioreactor and novel 35 mL high-throughput minibioreactors. Using expression changes and biochemical-pathway guidance of these sentinel genes, we were able to tune engineering parameters such that the improved scale-down resulted in both process parameter and sentinel gene profile convergence between the two systems, further solidifying the functionality evidence of these sentinel genes. This study serves as a starting point for developing qRT-PCR assays as comparability metrics that could be performed near-at-line during the cell culture process itself leading to enhanced process control. Additional broad applications of sentinel genes could be to validate different manufacturing facilities for the same product, and allow better process definition by fingerprinting the manufacturing process for more rapid biogenerics and vaccine approvals.

Project description:The sentinel lymph node (SLN) procedure is a standard staging technique in several types of cancer. One of the major problems of SLN mapping in colorectal cancer is the lack of an optimal dye and technique for identification of the nodes. In this study the investigators used the Near-Infrared (NIR) dye Indocyanin Green (ICG) to identify nodes with a newly developed NIR laparoscope. The investigators compared two different injection techniques; subserosal and submucosal injection.
Patients planned for a laparoscopic resection of a colorectal carcinoma without distant metastases were included. Dye was injected in the subserosa or submucosa of the bowel. Ten minutes after injection the investigators searched for fluorescent nodes with the NIR laparoscope. Fluorescent nodes were harvested and analyzed by the pathologist using H&E and additional immunohistochemistry.
