Project description:To determine the cell types and their transcriptional alterations during multiple myeloma progression from its precursor conditions, ie. monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), and smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM), we used single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to analyze the bone marrow aspirate samples from 4 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, 6 MGUS and 4 SMM patients as well as 5 healthy donors.
Project description:This series represents bone marrow aspirates from smoldering multiple myeloma patients Experiment Overall Design: We analyzed arrays for plasma cells from 22 cases of healthy donors, 44 cases of MGUS, and 12 cases of smoldering myeloma
Project description:Gene expression profiling of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells from healthy donors (n=8), monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) (n=10), smoldering myeloma (SMM) (n=10) and multiple myeloma (MM) (n=24) patients. Gene expression profile of MSCs was obtained using high density oligonucleotide microarrays (Human Gene 1.0 ST Array from Affymetrix).
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells from healthy donors (n=11), monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) (n=10), smoldering myeloma (SMM) (n=8), multiple myeloma (MM) (n=9) patients, and healthy donors exposed to the MM.1S cell line (n=3). The Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC Beadchip was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpGs in this cell type.

Project description:Multiple myeloma is a multi-stage disease. Based on its laboratory and clinical presentation it can be summarized as MGUS, smoldering myeloma, and multiple myeloma. Previous studies have shown that the expression levels of miRNAs in different stages of the disease are different. This study analyzes the expression levels of miRNAs in healthy individuals and myeloma serum exosomes. We used microarrays to detail the miRNAs expressionin between 12 healthy individuals and 12 multiple myeloma and identified distinct classes of dys-regulated genes.
Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematopoietic malignancy.Based on its laboratory and clinical presentation it can be summarized as MGUS, smoldering myeloma, and multiple myeloma. Previous studies have shown that the expression levels of miRNAs in different stages of the disease are different and exosomes are involved in modulating the progression and the metastasis of cancers through miRNAs. This study analyzes the expression levels of miRNAs in healthy individuals and myeloma bone marrow serum exosomes.
Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematopoietic malignancy. Based on its laboratory and clinical presentation, it can be categorized as MGUS, smoldering myeloma, and multiple myeloma. Previous studies have indicated that the expression levels of miRNAs differ across various stages of the disease, and exosomes are involved in modulating the progression and metastasis of cancers through miRNAs. This study aims to analyze the expression levels of miRNAs in the serum exosomes of healthy individuals and those with myeloma bone marrow.
Project description:To characterize epigenomic changes during the transformation of normal plasma cells to myeloma, we used the HELP assay to analyze the methylome of CD138+ cells from 56 subjects representing premalignant (MGUS), early and advanced stages of myeloma as well as healthy controls. Plasma cells from premalignant and early stages of myeloma were characterized by striking, widespread hypomethylation. CD138+ selected bone marrow plasma cells from 8 normal donors, 11 patients with monoclonal gammopathy of uncertain significance (MGUS), 4 patients with smoldering myeloma (SMM), 13 patients with newly diagnosed myeloma (NEWMM), 16 patients with relapsed myeloma (REL), including 2 patients with serial samples, and 2 patients in clinical complete remission (REM) were analyzed using the HELP assay [HpaII tiny fragment Enrichment by Ligation-mediated PCR].
Project description:Genetic events mediating transformation from the pre-malignant monoclonal gammopathies (MG) to multiple myeloma (MM) are unknown. To obtain a comprehensive genomic profile of MG from the early to the late stages we performed high resolution analysis on purified plasma cells from 20 MGUS, 20 smoldering MM (SMM) and 34 MM by high density 6.0 SNP-array.
