Project description:Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 100K SNP arrays Thirty-six ovarian tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the Affymetrix 100K Mapping Array. Copy number profiling of 36 ovarian tumors on Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays Sixteen ovary tumors were profiled for copy-number alterations with the high-resolution Affymetrix 500K Mapping Array.
Project description:sPNETs are highly malignant embryonal brain tumours of poor prognosis. The underlying biology is poorly understood. To address this we therefore performed high resolution genetic analysis. 36 CNS PNETs and 8 PBs were analysed using the Affymetrix 100K and 500K Mapping Set to identify copy number imbalance at both the chromosome and gene level. Keywords: Affymetrix 100K SNP array, Affymetrix 500K SNP arrays
Project description:Cytogenetic profiles of 50 meningiomas using high-density GeneChip Mapping 500K set and Genome-Wide Human SNP 6.0 Array in the tumor tissues and in the peripheral blood of the same patients. A total of two hundred 500k arrays (100 tumor samples and 100 blood samples) and 14 SNP6.0 arrays (7 tumour samples and 7 peripheral blood samples) were studied to explore the most common recurrent chromosomal abnormalities (gains and losses) in meningiomas. Our results confirm that del(22q) (52%) and del(1p) (16%) (common deleted regions: 22q11.21-22q13.3. and 1p31.2-p36.33) are the most frequent abnormalities. Additionally, recurrent monosomy 14 (8%), del(6p) (10%), del(7p) (10%) and del(19p) (6%) were also observed, while copy number variation (CNV) patterns consistent with recurrent chromosome gains, gene amplification was absent or rare. Based on their overall SNP profiles meningiomas could be classified into: i) diploid cases, ii) meningiomas with a single chromosome change (e.g. monosomy 22/del(22q) and iii) tumours with ≥2 altered chromosomes.
Project description:41 lung adenocarcinoma from never-smokers hybridized on Illumina SNP arrays on 13 HumanCNV370-Quadv3 chips. High-resolution array comparative genomic hybridization analysis of lung adenocarcinoma in 41 never smokers for identification of new minimal common regions (MCR) of gain or loss. The SNP array analysis validated copy-number aberrations and revealed that RB1 and WRN were altered by recurrent copy-neutral loss of heterozygosity.The present study has uncovered new aberrations containing cancer genes. The oncogene FUS is a candidate gene in the 16p region that is frequently gained in never smokers. Multiple genetic pathways defined by gains of MYC, deletions of RB1 and WRN or gains on 7p and 7q are involved in lung adenocarcinoma in never smokers. A 'Cartes d'Identite des Tumeurs' (CIT) project from the French National League Against Cancer (http://cit.ligue-cancer.net) 41 samples hybridized on Illumina SNP arrays.

Based on their overall SNP profiles meningiomas could be classified into: i) diploid cases, ii) meningiomas with a single chromosome change (e.g. monosomy 22/del(22q) and iii) tumours with M-bM-^IM-%2 altered chromosomes. 500K SNP mapping set array and Genome-Wide Human SNP 6.0 Array were used to profile 50 meningiomas with matched blood DNA samples. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and copy number abnormality (CNA) profiles were derived from each tumour-blood pair. In seven tumors, both types of arrays were assessed.
Project description:Genomic changes in low and highly metastatic A549 cells were analyzed by 500K SNP arrays. A large number of genomic alterations were present in A549 cells but no significant differences were observed between the low or highly metastatic A549 cell lines.
