Project description:The most frequent mature aggressive B-cell lymphomas are diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and Burkitt lymphoma (BL). Patients suffering from molecularly defined BL (mBL) but treated with a regimen developed for DLBCL show an unfavorable outcome compared to mBL treated with chemotherapy regimens for BL. Distinguishing BL from DLBCL by conventional histopathology is challenging in lymphomas that have features common to both diseases (aggressive B-cell lymphoma unclassifiable with features of DLBCL and BL [intermediates]). Moreover, DLBCL are a heterogeneous group of lymphomas comprising distinct molecular subtypes: the activated B-cell (ABC)-like, the germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) and the unclassifyable subtype as defined by gene expression profiling (GEP). Attempts to replace GEP with techniques applicable to formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue led to algorithms for immunohistochemical stainings (IHS). Disappointingly, the algorithms yielded conflicting results with respect to their prognostic potential, raising concerns about their validity. Furthermore, IHS algorithms did not provide a fully resolved classification: They did not identify mBL; nor did they separate ABC from unclassified DLBCL. We used digital multiplexed gene expression (DMGE) with FFPE derived RNA to classify agressive B-cell lymphomas. Our assay comprised only 30 genes (10 for the detection of mBL and 20 for the detection of ABC and GCB). We chose these genes by reanalysis of the microarray data reported in a previous study. 39 samples from mature aggressive B-cell lymphomas were analyzed using DMGE (nCounter, NanoString Technologies Inc., Seattle, WA, USA) of FFPE- and fresh-frozen derived RNA. All cases were previously characterized by the Molecular Mechanisms of Malignant Lymphoma (MMML) consortium using the Affymetrix GeneChip technology (gold standard of classification).

Project description:Limitations on the number of unique protein and DNA molecules that can be characterized microscopically in a single tissue specimen impede advances in understanding the biological basis of health and disease. Here we present a multiplexed fluorescence microscopy method (MxIF) for quantitative, single-cell, and subcellular characterization of multiple analytes in formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissue. Chemical inactivation of fluorescent dyes after each image acquisition round allows reuse of common dyes in iterative staining and imaging cycles. The mild inactivation chemistry is compatible with total and phosphoprotein detection, as well as DNA FISH. Accurate computational registration of sequential images is achieved by aligning nuclear counterstain-derived fiducial points. Individual cells, plasma membrane, cytoplasm, nucleus, tumor, and stromal regions are segmented to achieve cellular and subcellular quantification of multiplexed targets. In a comparison of pathologist scoring of diaminobenzidine staining of serial sections and automated MxIF scoring of a single section, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2, estrogen receptor, p53, and androgen receptor staining by diaminobenzidine and MxIF methods yielded similar results. Single-cell staining patterns of 61 protein antigens by MxIF in 747 colorectal cancer subjects reveals extensive tumor heterogeneity, and cluster analysis of divergent signaling through ERK1/2, S6 kinase 1, and 4E binding protein 1 provides insights into the spatial organization of mechanistic target of rapamycin and MAPK signal transduction. Our results suggest MxIF should be broadly applicable to problems in the fields of basic biological research, drug discovery and development, and clinical diagnostics.

Project description:Background:Investigations in human disease pathogenesis have been hampered due to paucity of access to fresh-frozen tissues (FFT) for use in global, data-driven methodologies. As an alternative, formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are readily available in pathology banks. However, the use of formalin for fixation can lead to the loss of proteins that appear during inflammation, thus introducing an inherent sample bias. To address this, we compared FF and FFPE tissue proteomics to determine whether FFPE-tissue can be used effectively in inflammatory diseases. Methods:Adjacent kidney slices from lupus nephritic mice were processed as FFPE or FFTs. Their tissue lysates were run together using proteomics workflow involving filter-aided sample preparation, in-solution dimethyl isotope labeling, StageTip fractionation, and nano-LC MS/MS through an Orbitrap XL MS. Results:We report a >97% concordance in protein identification between adjacent FFPE and FFTs in murine lupus nephritic kidneys. Specifically, proteins representing pathways, namely, 'systemic lupus erythematosus', 'interferon-?', 'TGF-?', and 'extracellular matrix', were reproducibly quantified between FFPE and FFTs. However, 12%-29% proteins were quantified differently in FFPE compared to FFTs, but the differences were consistent across experiments. In particular, certain proteins represented in pathways, including 'inflammatory response' and 'innate immune system' were quantified less in FFPE than in FFTs. In a pilot study of human FFPE tissues, we identified proteins relevant to pathogenesis in lupus nephritic kidney biopsies compared to control kidneys. Conclusion:This is the first report of lupus nephritis kidney proteomics using FFPE tissue. We concluded that archived FFPE tissues can be reliably used for proteomic analyses in inflammatory diseases, with a caveat that certain proteins related to immunity and inflammation may be quantified less in FFPE than in FFTs.

Project description:BackgroundHand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD), classically a childhood viral infection, has an atypical and severe clinical presentation in adults. Coxsackievirus A6 is a leading cause of atypical HFMD, but current diagnostic methods utilizing formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded skin biopsy specimens often lack sensitivity and specificity.MethodsFormalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded skin biopsies from seven case patients with clinical and histopathological suspicion of atypical HFMD were evaluated by coxsackievirus A6 (CVA6) immunohistochemistry, enterovirus-specific conventional reverse transcriptase-PCR with subsequent Sanger sequencing targeting the 5'UTR, and CVA6-specific real-time PCR targeting the VP1 gene.ResultsThe CVA6-specific antibody demonstrated appropriate antigen distribution and staining intensity in keratinocytes in all cases. Conventional RT-PCR and sequencing also detected the presence of enterovirus, and CVA6-specific real-time RT-PCR analysis identified CVA6.ConclusionApplying these immunohistochemistry and molecular techniques to formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues, CVA6 was determined to be the causative infectious agent in seven cases of atypical hand, foot, and mouth disease.
