Project description:Primary pediatric Ewing sarcoma (ES), one uncharacterized sarcoma as well as primary and well established ES cell lines were compared to probes of different normal tissues 8 Ewing sarcoma patient samples (MuET-x), 3 primary ES cell lines (SB-KMS-y), 3 well established ES cell lines (A673, SK-N-MC, RD-ES) and 22 normal tissues (PBMC, spleen, thymus, stomach, ...., uterus, fetal brain, fetal liver) were analyzed.

Project description:In this study, we characterize the fusion protein produced by the EPC1-PHF1 translocation in Low Grade Endometrial Stromal Sarcoma (LG-ESS) and Ossifying FibroMyxoid Tumors (OFMT). We express the fusion protein and necessary controls in K562 Cells. The fusion protein assembles a mega-complex harboring both NuA4/TIP60 and PRC2 subunits and enzymatic activities and leads to mislocalization of chromatin marks in the genome, linked to aberrant gene expression.

Project description:Affymetrix exon array data were generated from total RNA that was isolated from localized Ewing sarcoma biopsy specimens. Expression of transcript summarized data was compared to data generated from normal stem cells and normal adult tissues. Total RNA was extracted from 32 archived tumor biopsy specimens obtained from patients with localized Ewing sarcoma. Samples were analyzed by Affymetrix exon arrays using standard procedures. Data were compared to human neural crest and mesenchymal stem cells (in triplicate: GSE21511) as well as to 33 normal adult tissues (Affymetrix tissue controls; 11 tissues in triplicate: cel files obtained from: http://www.affymetrix.com/support/technical/sample_data/exon_array_data.affx). Normalization was achieved by RMA using Parkek Genomics Suite
