ABSTRACT: The impact of a drug transporter ABCG2 haplotype in molecular response of chronic myelogenous leukemia patients is modulated by imatinib dose
Project description:We analysed the impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in drug transporter genes on the molecular response to imatinib, using 857 SNPs covering 94 drug transporter genes on 355 chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) patients. Samples were analyzed with respect to sex, imatinib daily dose, SOKAL score and the levels of molecular responses. The 'characteristics: molecular response' values represent the ratio BCR-ABL/ABL*100, which is determined by RT-QPCR (real time quantitative PCR). It is the percentage of the number of copies of BCR-ABL transcript on the number of ABL transcript copies.

Project description:This is a class prediction experiment, where the class is the response status to imatinib (also called Gleevec), a drug used to treat patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML). There are two data sets, a training set (from Leipzig, 8 Responders and 5 Non-Responders) and a validation set (from Mannheim, 8 Responders and 7 Non-Responders). The objective is to identify differentially regulated genes between CML patients who respond and those who do not respond to imatinib and confirm the results in the validation data set. The samples from blood or bone marrow of CML patients were hybridized to Affymetrix HG-U95Av2 chip and RMA was used to generate the normalized signal values.

Project description:Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) is a malignant stem cell disease characterized by a reciprocal translocation between chromosome 9 and 22. The selective bcr-abl tyrosine-kinase inhibitor Imatinib has become the therapy of choice for patients with newly diagnosed CML including those previously considered candidates for allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The tyrosine-kinase inhibitor Nilotinib is a derivate of Imatinib with higher potency. To examine the molecular and functional effects of Nilotinib and Imatinib in chronic myelogenous leukemia, we performed gene expression and functional analyses in K562 cells following treatment with the two tyrosine kinase inhibitors.
Project description:Its a mathematical model depicting CML (chronic myelogenous leukemia) interaction with T cells and impact of T cell activations on CML progression over time.
Project description:We generated iPSCs from imatinib-sensitive chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) patient samples. We used microarrays tc ompare the gene expression pattern among CML-iPSCs and normal cord blood (CB) iPSCs.

Experiment Overall Design: Affymetrix U133A 2.0 microarrays were used to examine the gene expression profile of K562 cells after in vitro treatment with Imatinib (0.5 µM) or Nilotinib (0.05 µM) for 24 hours. Gene expression data of the treated cells were compared with data of untreated cells.

Two CML derived iPS cells and one CB derived iPS cells were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
