Project description:Mononuclear cells from AML patients (n=46) were sorted into CD34+ and CD34- subfractions and genome-wide expression analysis was performed using Illumina BeadChip Arrays (HT12 v3). Of 2 AML samples only the CD34+ fraction could be analyzed. AML CD34+ and CD34- gene expression was compared to a large group of normal CD34+ bone marrow cells (n=31). Mononuclear cells from AML patients (n=46) were sorted into CD34+ (46) and CD34- (44) subfractions and genome-wide expression analysis was performed using Illumina BeadChip Arrays (HT12 v3). AML CD34+ and CD34- gene expression was compared to a large group of normal CD34+ bone marrow cells (n=31).

Project description:Contemporary treatment of pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) requires the assignment of patients to specific risk groups. To explore whether expression profiling of leukemic blasts could accurately distinguish between the known risk groups of AML, we analyzed 130 pediatric and 20 adult AML diagnostic bone marrow or peripheral blood samples using the Affymetrix U133A microarray. Class discriminating genes were identified for each of the major prognostic subtypes of pediatric AML, including t(15;17)[PML-RARalpha], t(8;21)[AML1-ETO], inv(16) [CBFbeta-MYH11], MLL chimeric fusion genes, and cases classified as FAB-M7. When subsets of these genes were used in supervised learning algorithms, an overall classification accuracy of more than 93% was achieved. Moreover, we were able to use the expression signatures generated from the pediatric samples to accurately classify adult de novo AMLs with the same genetic lesions. The class discriminating genes also provided novel insights into the molecular pathobiology of these leukemias. Finally, using a combined pediatric data set of 130 AMLs and 137 acute lymphoblastic leukemias, we identified an expression signature for cases with MLL chimeric fusion genes irrespective of lineage. Surprisingly, AMLs containing partial tandem duplications of MLL failed to cluster with MLL chimeric fusion gene cases, suggesting a significant difference in their underlying mechanism of transformation. All the gene expression arrays are available through http://www.stjuderesearch.org/site/data/AML1/ in the original study (PMID:15226186). To study the RAS gene expression in the human AML patients, a total of 104 AML cases with known KRAS and NRAS status (including 72 gene expression arrays in the original study and 32 additional arrays acquired later on), as well as 4 CD34+ normal bone marrow cases deposited in GEO GSE33315, were including in this depository. Gene expression profiling was performed on 104 single diagnosis tumor samples and 4 CD34+ normal bone marrow samples
Project description:Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) plays a vital role in Multiple Myeloma. Nevertheless, the exact expression features and functions of lncRNAs are still obscure.To investigate aberrantly expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in MM, we screened the crucial differentially expressed lncRNA and mRNA in mononuclear cells from bone marrow of multiple myeloma patients and normal donors.These differentially expressed lncrnas are likely to play a key role in the development of MM, and may be used as a novel biomarker for the diagnosis or therapy of MM. We used microarrays to screen the candidate differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs in mononuclear cells from bone marrow of multiple myeloma patients and normal donors .Subsequently,the candidate differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs were verified by qRT-PCR.
