Transcriptomic profiling of human AML cell lines and primary AML samples
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We sequenced mRNA from both cell lines and primary samples to investigate transcriptomic profiles of human AML cell lines and primary samples. We then performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of AML cell lines and primary samples that have sphingolipidomic characterization to identify transcriptional differences between two distinct sphingolipidomic subtypes in AML samples.
Project description:Genome-wide DNA methylation profiling of primary AML samples treated with 100nM decitabine (DAC), cytarabine (AraC), or DMSO. Eight distinct AML samples were grown using an in vitro stromal co-culture system for 4 days and then treated with either DAC, Ara-C or DMSO for 3 days. DNA was prepared for genome-wide methylation analysis with the Illumina Infinium 450k Human DNA methylation BeadChip. DNA from each sample/treatment was analyzed on duplicate arrays.
Project description:Here we used Illumina NGS for high-throughput profiling of the DNA methylome(ERRBS) and hydroxymethylome(hMe-Seal) of primary tumor samples with Acute Myeloid Leukemia(AML). The data can be used to compare hydroxymethylation and methylation patterns from different AML subtypes and normal bone marrow samples.
Project description:Here we used Illumina NGS for high-throughput profiling of the DNA methylome(ERRBS) and hydroxymethylome(hMe-Seal) of primary tumor samples with Acute Myeloid Leukemia(AML). The data can be used to compare hydroxymethylation and methylation patterns from different AML subtypes and normal bone marrow samples. We have sequenced 4 subtypes of AML with hydroxymethylation decrease and 1 subtype with no decrease. We have sequenced 2-5 primary tumor samples for each subtype, and comprated the epigenomic profiles ( ERRBS and hMe-Seal ) of hydroxymethylation deficient subtypes to the control subtype and normal bone marrow samples.
Project description:In this study, we examined gene expression in 69 primary samples from patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), a complex hematologic malignancy, aiming to uncover potential avenues for novel treatment strategies.
Project description:Kinase hyperactivity is a common driver of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and serves as a therapeutic target. The most frequent genetic aberration leading to hyperactive kinase signaling and poor prognosis is internal tandem duplication (ITD) of the FMS-tyrosine-like Kinase 3-gene (FLT3). FLT3-ITD induces ligand independent activation of FLT3 and downstream pathways leading to proliferation, decreased apoptosis and partial differentiation block. Combined with chemotherapy, FLT3-Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor (FLT3-TKI) midostaurin improves overall survival (OS) of newly diagnosed FLT3-mutated AML patients, whereas single agent gilteritinib proved superior to chemotherapy in relapsed/refractory FLT3-mutated AML patients . As the primary targets of currently approved FLT3-TKIs are tyrosine (Y) kinases, we hypothesized that direct evaluation of tyrosine phosphorylation status could reveal pY phosphorylation profiles associated with FLT3-TKI response. Therefore, we used label-free pTyr-based phosphoproteomics in 35 primary AML samples (18 FLT3-WT, 17 FLT3-ITD), to identify differentially phosphorylated proteins underlying response to the FLT3-TKIs gilteritinib and midostaurin. We identified a total of 3024 unique phosphosites (median 1299 per sample, range 286 – 1612, pS:pT:pY 11.9%:9.5%:78.6%). Due to low number of identified phosphosites, we excluded two samples from further analyses. On the remaining 33 samples, we additionally performed IMAC global phosphoproteomics and on 17 samples protein expression analysis.
Project description:As part of a clinical trial of the MDM2 inhibitor DS-3032b, 41 primary tumor samples were obtained before treatment from 38 patients newly diagnosed with AML, or relapsed or refractory to standard induction chemotherapy Gene expression features of pretreatment samples, along with TP53 mutation status, were found to correlate with clinical response to DS-3032b (manuscript under review).

Bisulfite-converted DNA from 24 samples was hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip in duplicate (replicates are indicated by array plate number).
