Project description:A custom high-density oligonucleotide array CGH (HD aCGH) was designed to facilitate the accurate mapping of the boundaries of the recurrent breakpoint at 3q13.31in 8 osteosarcoma tumors and cell lines Keywords: Genetic analysis by HD aCGH
Project description:We used Nimblegen HD aCGH to detect copy-number variants between tumor and ear control-DNA samples from heterozygous and homozygous Tp53C273X knockout rats
Project description:Microarrays was performed in 7 aCGH-matched canine primary tumors (4 DLG2 deleted, 3 DLG2 wild type) to investigate the gene expression profiles associated with DLG2 deletion in canine osteosarcoma.
Project description:Osteosarcoma is a rare, highly malignant tumor of the bone that presents with a highly complex and abnormal karyotype. Only a few of the genes, which are targets of genetic alteration are known. An integrated genome-wide genomic and gene expression profiling analysis was performed on human osteosarcoma tissues and osteosarcoma cell lines in order to identify and map, in a high-resolution fashion, the most drastic chromosomal changes and point out genes which could contribute to tumorigenesis by having altered expression levels of critical oncogenes and tumor suppressors. Combined gene expression and aCGH analysis on the same samples enables direct comparison between DNA and mRNA level and offers a general strategy to identify and prioritize potential targets while the parallel analysis on cell lines offers a reliable models for further functional studies.

Project description:Standard cytogenetic GTG-banding analysis (550 bands) revealed an interstitial deletion on 15q21q22 chromosomal region. Refinement of the 15q21.2 deletion intervals was conducted using aCGH (Cytoscan HD, Affymetrix) on DNA samples from the patient. This assay revealed the presence of submicroscopic alterations on chromosomes 1, 9 and 15. The result was arr[hg19] 9p24.1(6,619,823-6,749,335)x3, 1q44(248,688,586-248,795,277)x1, 15q21.2q22.2(50,848,301-61,298,006)x1.
