Project description:Unbalanced chromosomal abnormalities might play a major role in the leukemogenesis of AML-M5 Oligonucelotide array CGH were performed on 24 patients with AML-M5 To assess the possible existence of unbalanced chromosomal abnormalities and delineate the characterization of copy number alterations (CNAs) of acute myeloid leukemia-M5 (AML-M5)

Project description:To understand the pathogenesis of DNMT3A in acute monocytic leukemia (AML-M5), we identified genes that are expressed differently in leukemia cells from AML-M5 patients collected at diagnosis with DNMT3A mutations (6 cases) compared to those without the mutations (4 cases). Differences of expression level were observed in 889 out of 20,723 (4.3%) annotated genes by using Affymetrix microarray with 469 genes upregulated and 420 genes downregulated. Leukemia cells in bone marrow of acute monocytic leukemia patients were collected at diagnosis for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. 6 cases of AML-M5 samples with DNMT3A mutations and 4 cases of AML-M5 samples wihtout DNMT3A mutations were used.
Project description:The goal of this study is to define the global gene expression profile of primary leukemic blasts from patients with different forms of myeloid leukemia and different FAB subtypes. Here we report the global gene expression profile of 2 patients with AML FAB M5, 2 patients with AML FAB M7, 3 patients with Down syndrome AML FAB M7 and 3 patients with Down syndrome transient leukemia.

Project description:Purpose: Identify new targets in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Methods: MOLM-14 cells were transduced with lentivirus encoding shRNAs targeting MTHFD2 (shMTHFD2 hairpin TRCN0000036553, denoted M5) and control (LacZ, shControl TRCN0000072231). RNA from 6 samples, biological duplicates (LacZ1, LacZ2; M5-1, M5-2) and a technical replicate (LacZ3, M5-3) were sequenced as 50+50 bp paired-end reads using Illumina TruSeq strand specific library. The pool of six samples was sequenced on two lanes of an Illumina HiSeq, generating 101bp paired end reads. The software package RSEM (Li et al., 2001) was run using Bowtie (version 1.0.0) to align the reads that passed quality filters to the hg19 GENCODE version 17 (http://www.gencodegenes.org/releases/17.html) transcriptome and to quantify transcript abundance at isoform and gene level. Results: MTHFD2 suppression induces AML differentiation. There was upregulation of well-validated myeloid differentiation genes and gene sets consistent with myeloid maturation. Conclusion: Our study supports the therapeutic targeting of MTHFD2 in AML.
