Project description:Chromosome 1p LOH was seen in one-third of cases. LOH events on chromosomes 11q and 1p were generally accompanied by copy number loss. The one exception was on chromosome 11p, where LOH in all 4 cases was accompanied by normal copy number or diploidy, implying uniparental disomy. Amplification of MYCN was also noted, and also, amplification of a second gene, ALK, in a single case. Experiment Overall Design: We analyzed paired blood and primary tumor samples from 22 children with high-risk neuroblastoma for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and DNA copy number change.

Project description:Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) are a major complication of solid organ transplantation and represent a cause of severe morbidity and mortality among transplanted patients. Apart from EBV infection, knowledge of the pathogenesis of monoclonal PTLD is limited. Powerful analysis techniques, such as whole genomic DNA profiling (arrayCGH), can improve our understanding of PTLD pathogenesis. Toward this aim, we obtained the whole genome profiling using the Affymetrix GeneChip Human Mapping 10k 2.0 from 20 cases of PTLD and we compared them with those assessed in 25 cases of DLBCL from immunocompetent patients, as a control group. Recurrent lesions were detected among all the samples. Chromosome 18q, 7q, 3q and 12 were the most common gains in DLBCL of immunocompetent hosts. Chromosomes 5p and 11p were commonly gained in PTLD-DLBCL. The latter had frequent losses of 6q, 17p, 1p, and 9p. Chromosome 12p was the most frequent target of deletions among PTLD-DLBCL. The LOH pattern was characterized by involvement of chromosomes 13q and 17p in DLBCL and 10, 1q, 9p and 11q among PTLD-DLBCL. Interestingly, LOH did not always match the DNA loss. In particular, chromosome 10 seemes to be targeted by uniparental disomy in PTLD. Small deletions and gains, involving both known (BCL2 and PAX5) and unknown genes (ZDHHC14), have been identified. Our data suggest that PTLD share, at a lower frequency, common genetic aberrations with DLBCL from immunocompetent patients. The demonstration of 9p13 amplification indicates the importance of PAX5 in PTLD. The combination of DNA copy number and LOH assessment lead to the hypothesis that uniparental disomy may be a potential mechanism in B-cell lymphomagenesis. Twenty specimens of monoclonal B-cell PTLD, collected from 20 solid organ transplant recipients. Experiment Overall Design: 20 PTLD samples. No technical replications. Experiment Overall Design: 25 DLBCL samples (20 patient + 5 cell lines). No technical replications.

Project description:Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are clonal disorders of hematopoietic progenitors characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis and high propensity to leukemias. Although a number of gene targets have been identified, in many MDS cases, particular genetic targets are unknown. In this study, we performed genome-wide profiling of copy number (CN) abnormalities and allelic imbalances in MDS genomes in order to clarify the distribution of LOH (loss of heterozygosity) and identify their target genes. We analyzed a total of 171MDS and MDS/MPD specimens, including 7 RA/RARS, 23 RCMD/RCMD-RS, 6 5q-syndrome, 30 RAEB-1, 40 RAEB-2, 4 therapy related-MDS/AML, 5 MDSu, 17 CMML-1, 16 CMML-2, 24 overt AML, using high-density SNP arrays. The data were analyzed by CNAG/AsCNAR software we specifically developed for allele-specific CN analysis and sensitive LOH detection. MDS showed characteristic CN profiles in SNP array analysis. Of particular interest is the finding of high frequency of CN-neutral LOH (Uniparental disomy,UPD), which were observed in 51 of 171 (30%) MDS cases. They preferentially involved 1p, 1q, 4q, 7q, 11q, 17p and other chromosomal segments, which were associated with homozygous mutations of both loss-of-function mutations and gain-of function mutations of tumor suppressor genes and cellular oncogenes, including TP53 (17p UPD), AML1/RUNX1 (21q UPD), Nras and cMPL (1p UPD), JAK-2 (9p UPD), and FLT3 (13q UPD). Next we tried to identify a new gene target in 11q UPD, which was most common UPD region in this study and many of these cases were CMML with a normal karyotype. The minimum 11q UPD segment is about 2Mb which existed in 11q23. We sequenced coding exons of c-cbl and detected homozygous mutations in 8 of 9 MDS cases with 11q UPD (CMML= 5, RAEB= 3, overt leukemia= 1), but very rare in cases without 11q UPD (1/162), demonstrating that the mutation is tightly linked to 11q UPD. These mutations were 8 point mutations and 1 micro-deletion, they were accumulated in the linker or RING domain. These c-cbl mutants can transform NIH3T3 in a dominant manner and these mutants are phosphorylated and activate PI3K-Akt pathway. To investigate the functions of these mutants in hematopoietic cells, we introduced these mutants into c-kit(+)Sca1(+)Lin(-) murine bone marrow cells, it prolonged replating capacity of these hematopoietic progenitors.

Project description:Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is a hematopoietic malignant disease characterized by the chromosomal translocation t(15;17), resulting in the formation of the PML-RARA gene. Here, 47 t(15;17) APL samples were analyzed with high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism microarray (50K and 250K SNP-chips) using the new algorithm AsCNAR (allele-specific copy-number analysis using anonymous references). Copy-number-neutral loss of heterozygosity (CNN-LOH) was identified at chromosome 10q (3 cases), 11p (3 cases) and 19q (1 case). Twenty-eight samples (60%) did not have an obvious alteration (normal-copy-number [NC] group). Nineteen samples (40%) showed either one or more genomic abnormalities: 8 samples (17%) had trisomy 8 either with or without an additional duplication, deletion, or CNN-LOH (+8 group); and 11 samples (23%) had genomic abnormalities without trisomy 8 (other abnormalities group). These chromosomal abnormalities were acquired somatic mutations. Interestingly, FLT3-ITD mutations (11/47 cases) only occurred in the group with no genomic alteration (NC group). Taken together, these results suggest that the pathway of development of APL differs in each group: FLT3-ITD, trisomy 8, and other genomic changes. Here, we showed for the first time hidden abnormalities and novel disease-related genomic changes in t(15;17) APL. Keywords: SNP-chip

Project description:Large but not small copy-number alterations correlate to high-risk genomic aberrations and survival in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: a high-resolution genomic screening of newly diagnosed patients. Single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-arrays allow simultaneous detection of copy-number aberrations (CNAs) and copy-number neutral loss-of-heterozygosity (CNN-LOH). In this study we investigated the presence of CNAs and CNN-LOH in newly diagnosed CLL samples from a Swedish chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cohort. In this study we could detect the known recurrent aberrations in CLL (i.e. deletions of 13q, 11q, 17p and trisomy 12). We also detected other both large and small CNAs which were mostly non-recurrent. CNN-LOH was detected on chromosome 13q in patients that carried homozygous deletion of 13q.

Project description:Stromal contamination is one of the major confounding factors in the analysis of primary solid tumor samples by single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays. As we propose to employ genome-wide SNP microarray analysis as a diagnostic platform for neuroblastoma, the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of these studies must be optimized. In order to investigate the effects of stroma, we derived early passage cell lines from nine primary tumors and compared their genomic signature with that of the primary tumors by 100K SNP array analysis. The average concordance between tumor and cell line for raw LOH (loss of heterozygosity) calls was 96% (range 91%-99%) and for raw copy number alterations (CNA), 71% (range 43%-87%). In general, there were a larger number of LOH events identified in the cell lines compared to the matched tumor samples (mean increase 3.2% ± 1.9%). We have developed an algorithm that shows that the presence of stroma contributes to under-reporting of LOH and copy number loss (CNL). Notable findings in this sample set were uniparental disomy (UPD) of chromosome arms 11p, 1q, 14q, and 15q and a novel area of amplification on chromosome band 11p15. Our analysis demonstrates that LOH was identified significantly more often in derived cell lines compared to the original tumor samples. While these may in part be due to clonal selection during adaptation to tissue culture, our study indicates contamination by normal stromal elements may be a major contributing factor in underestimation of LOH and CNL events.
