Project description:Chicken 60-mer oligonucleotide microarray, including 39854 cDNA and ESTs, entire Marek’s disease virus and avian influenza virus genomes, and 150 chicken microRNAs, was developed. Cecal tonsil, ileum, liver and spleen from 6 chickens were selected for hybridization to validate the microarray performance. There are 2886, 2886, 2660, 358, 3208 3355, and 3710 genes significantly expressed between liver and spleen, spleen and cecal tonsil, cecal tonsil and ileum, liver and cecal tonsil, liver and ileum, spleen and ileum at the P<10-7. Number of tissue specific genes for cecal tonsil, ileum, liver and spleen was 95, 71, 535, and 108, respectively with p < 10-7. More than 95% of spots had high SNR (>10).

Project description:DNA copy number alterations and mutations were characterised by bulk SNP anlaysis and exome sequencing (not sown here) in three acute lymphoblastic leukaemia samples and one establish cell line REH. Further single cell experiments of these cases investigated the mutation and copy number targets previously defined exploring the sub-clonal populations and phylogenic trees within each leukaemia. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from cryopreserved diagnostic bone marrow or peripheral blood samples.

Keywords: characteristics of newly developed microarray using different normal tissue Loop design was carried on for all of tissue samples from the six chickens. Samples of four tissues from a chicken were used in each loop. The order of the tissues in each loop was changed so that all pairs of tissues were combined on an array with an equal number of times. Dye swap was used so that each tissue was measured an equal number of times with each dye. Data from 12 measurements for each tissue were collected, in total, 48 measurements from 24 arrays.
Project description:Patients with conventional mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) show an aggressive clinical behavior. However, cases fulfilling the WHO criteria for MCL, but that remain asymptomatic without treatment, have been reported. In an attempt to understand this heterogeneity, we have compared 17 typical cases of MCL with a homogeneous group of 13 asymptomatic individuals with monoclonal expansion of t(11;14)(q13;q32) cyclin D1-positive B-cells in peripheral blood (MALD1). None of these cases have received treatment (minimum follow-up of 26 months; median, 71 months). Gene expression analysis has shown enrichment of signatures associated to neoplastic behavior and cell proliferation in MCL but not in MALD1. In contrast, MALD1 was highly enriched in gene sets related to immune activation and inflammatory responses. CD38 and CD200 genes were differentially expressed between MCL and MALD1. The combined assessment of both proteins by flow cytometry allowed classifying 85% of MALD1 cases. In summary, we have shown for the first time that MALD1, in contrast to MCL, is characterized by immune activation and driven by inflammatory cues. We have also shown that CD38 and CD200 flow cytometry assessment is useful to discern most cases of MALD1 from MCL in the clinical setting. MALD1 should be identified and segregated from the current MCL category to avoid overdiagnosis and unnecessary treatment.
Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a lymphoma characterized by aberrant activation of CCND1/cyclin D1 followed by sequential genetic abnormalities. Genomic abnormalities in MCL have been extensively examined by classical cytogenetics and microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization techniques, pointing out a number of alterations in genomic regions that correlate with the neoplastic phenotype and survival. Recently, single nucleotide polymorphism genomic microarrays (SNP-chip) have been developed and used for analysis of cancer genomics. This technique allows detection of genomic changes with higher resolution, including loss of heterozygosity without changes of gene dosage, so-called acquired uniparental disomy (aUPD). As a result of the analysis, known alterations were confirmed by SNP arrays, including deletion of INK4A/ARF, duplication/amplification of MYC, deletion of ATM, and deletion of TP53. We also identified a duplication/amplification that occurred at 13q involving oncogenic microRNA, miR17-92. We found other genomic abnormalities, including duplication/amplification of cyclin D1, del(1p), del(6q), dup(3q) and dup(18q). Our SNP-chip analysis detected these abnormalities at high resolution, allowing us to narrow the size of the commonly deleted regions, including 1p and 6q. Our SNP-chip analysis detected a number of aUPD sites, including whole chromosome 9 aUPD and 9p aUPD. We also found an MCL case with 19p, leading to homozygous deletion of TNFSF genes. keyword: SNP-chip; Kawmata_MCL
