Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE12439: Genomic profiling of chondrosarcoma: implications for the distinction between central and peripheral tumors GSE12475: Genomic profiling of chondrosarcoma: implications for the distinction between central and peripheral tumors Refer to individual Series
Project description:DNA copy number analysis of 67 fresh frozen chondrosarcoma biopsies using 32k BAC and 244k oligo array CGH. Genomic imbalances, in most tumors affecting large regions of the genome, were found in 90% of the cases. Although rare, recurrent amplifications were found at 8q24.21-q24.22 and 11q22.1-q22.3, and homozygous deletions of loci previously implicated in chondrosarcoma development affected the CDKN2A, EXT1 and EXT2 genes. Keywords: chondrosarcoma, array comparative genomic hybridization

Keywords: chondrosarcoma, array comparative genomic hybridization DNA copy number analysis was performed using tiling microarrays containing more than 32,000 partly overlapping BAC clones, generating complete coverage of the Homo sapiens genome. The arrays were produced at the Swegene DNA Microarray Resource Center, Department of Oncology, Lund University (http://swegene.onk.lu.se), using BAC clones mapped to the hg17 genome build. Male genomic DNA (Promega) was used as reference. In five cases (cases 2, 4, 34, 36, and 67) the DNA copy number status was assessed by oligo microarrays containing ~236,000 oligonucleotide probes (Agilent, Palo Alto, CA, USA). These samples were hybridized against gender-matched reference DNA.
Project description:Transcriptomic profiling of human breast tumors. Genomic and expression profiling using 38K BAC array-CGH and Illumina HT-12 beadchips were performed on 53 invasive breast tumors to assess the impact of gene dosage on gene expression patterns and the effect of other mechanisms on transcriptional levels. Array-CGH results was validated by FISH using tumors showing 8p11-p12 DNA amplification and expression profiling was confirmed using qPCR for 11 transcripts. Low-level gain, high-level gain/amplification, heterozygous loss and homozygous deletion (henceforth referred to as gain, amplification, loss and deletion) were defined as log2 ratio thresholds set at +0.2, >= +0.5, -0.2 and <=-1.0, respectively.
Project description:Genomic and expression profiling using 38K BAC array-CGH and Illumina HT-12 beadchips were performed on 97 diploid invasive breast tumors to assess the impact of gene dosage on gene expression patterns and the effect of other mechanisms on transcriptional levels. Patient stratification was performed according to axillary lymph node status (node-negative, pN0; node-positive, pN1) and overall survival (>8-year survivors; breast cancer-specific mortality within 8 years of diagnosis). Array-CGH results was validated by FISH using tumors showing HER2/neu gene amplification and expression profiling was confirmed using qPCR for 16 transcripts.

Project description:Genomic DNA from sporadic breast tumours was isolated and analysed using array CGH. The NKI 1MB BAC/PAC micro array was used to identify chromosomal aberrations of all tumours. Keywords: sporadic breast tumour, CGH
