Project description:Clear cell papillary renal cell carcinoma (CCPRCC) is a low-grade renal neoplasm with morphological characteristics mimicking both clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC) and papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC). However, despite some overlapping features, their morphological, immunohistochemical, and molecular profiles are distinct. To better understand the biology of this tumor, we analyze the miRNA expression profiles of a set of CCPRCC by microarrays.
Project description:The proteome of clinical tissue samples diagnosed with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) and papillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) were evaluated analyzed along with the dataset identifier PXD022018 to establish a potential discriminative biomarker panel of proteins for these tumors subtypes.
Project description:131 patient-derived xenograft models were generated for non-small cell lung carcinoma and were profiled by analysis of gene copy number variation, whole exome sequence, methylome, transcriptome, proteome, and phospho(Tyr)-proteome. Proteome profiling resolved the known major histology subtypes and revealed 3 proteome subtypes (proteotypes) among adenocarcinoma and 2 in squamous cell carcinoma that were associated with distinct protein-phosphotyrosine signatures and patient survival. Proteomes of human tumor were discernible from murine stroma. Stromal proteomes were similar between histological subtypes, but two adenocarcinoma proteotypes had distinct stromal proteomes. Tumor and stromal proteotypes comprise signatures of targetable biological pathways suggesting that patient stratification by proteome profiling may be an actionable approach to precisely diagnose and treat cancer.
Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma comprises two dominant subtypes, ccA and ccB, with gender disparity providing additional disease information. A third minor subgroup has distinct expression profiles consistent with von Hippel-Lindau wild type status and displays variant histology features.
Project description:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) tumors express varying gene profiles, dependent on varying genetic events. Here we analyzed a series of ccRCC tumors to show that two subtypes of ccRCC exist based on their molecular signature. These subtypes (ccA and ccB) are identifiable by a robust set of genes representing distinct biological pathways and are correlated with patient survival post-nephrectomy.

Project description:131 patient-derived xenograft models were generated for non-small cell lung carcinoma and were profiled at the genome, transcriptome and proteome level by analysis of gene copy number variation, whole exome sequencing, DNA methylation, transcriptome, proteome and phospho(Tyr)-proteome. At the proteome level, the human tumor and murine stroma were discernible. Tumor proteome profiling resolved the known major histological subtypes and revealed 3 proteome subtypes (proteotypes) among adenocarcinoma and 2 in squamous cell carcinoma that were associated with distinct protein-phosphotyrosine signatures and patient survival. Stromal proteomes were similar between histological subtypes, but two adenocarcinoma proteotypes had distinct stromal proteomes. Proteotypes comprise tumor and stromal signatures of targetable biological pathways suggesting that patient stratification by proteome profiling may be an actionable approach to precisely diagnose and treat cancer.
Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma comprises two dominant subtypes, ccA and ccB, with gender disparity providing additional disease information. A third minor subgroup has distinct expression profiles consistent with von Hippel-Lindau wild type status and displays variant histology features. 44 new tumor samples and six large, publicly available, ccRCC gene expression databases were identified that cumulatively provided data for 480 tumors for metaanalysis via meta-array compilation.
Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), the most common type of renal cancer is often associated with inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene von-Hippel Lindau (VHL), leading to stable expression of hypoxia inducible factors, HIF1α and HIF2α. Although HIF1α functions as a tumor suppressor gene, majority of ccRCCs constitutively express HIF1α, stratifying VHL-deficient ccRCCs into groups which express either both HIF1α and HIF2α (H1H2) or HIF2α exclusively (H2). MicroRNA (miRNA) profiling performed in these two ccRCC subtypes to identify novel molecular mechanisms. ccRCCs were classified into H1H2 and H2 subtypes by immunohostochemical staining of H1F1α and H1F2α expression. Five H1H2 tumor samples and eight H2 tumor samples were used for the study. Matched adjacent normal renal tissues were used as respective controls.
Project description:Clear cell carcinoma (CCC), endometrioid carcinoma (EC), and serous carcinoma (SC) are the major histological subtypes of epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), whose differences in carcinogenesis are still unclear. Here, we undertake comprehensive proteomic profiling of 80 CCC, 79 EC, 80 SC, and 30 control samples. Our analysis reveals the prognostic or diagnostic value of dysregulated proteins and phosphorylation sites in important pathways. Moreover, protein co-expression network not only provides comprehensive view of biological features of each histological subtype, but also indicate potential prognostic biomarkers and progression landmarks. Notably, EOC have strong inter-tumor heterogeneity, with significantly different clinical characteristics, proteomic patterns and signaling pathway disorders in CCC, EC, and SC. Finally, we infer MPP7 protein as potential therapeutic target for SC, whose biological functions are confirmed in SC cells. Our proteomic cohort provides valuable resources for understanding molecular mechanisms and developing treatment strategies of distinct histological subtypes.
