Project description:Gene expression of patient samples with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were compared to normal controls to study dysregulated signalling pathways. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from primary AML patient samples were isolated using the Ficoll-Paque gradient separation method. RNA from CD34+ bone marrow cells of healthy donors were purchased from AllCells LLC (Alameda, CA; catalog number RNA-BM003C). Total RNA were harvested from patient samples using Trizol and subjected to microarray-based gene expression analysis.
Project description:Reversing gene expression signatures in relapsed patient may restore chemosensitivity. We demonstrate that the histone deacetylase inhibitor vorinostat not only reprograms the aberrant gene expression profile of relapsed blasts but is synergistic when applied prior to chemotherapy in primary patient samples and leukemia cell lines Primary patient samples were collected from patients treated at the New York University Medical Center and from the Childrenâs Oncology Group (COG) cell bank,RNA was isolated from three primary patient samples and three B-lineage leukemia cell lines with or without treatment with vorinostat for 24 hours.
Project description:Single-cell RNA-seq analysis of primary human bone marrow immune populations isolated from B-ALL patient samples (matched diagnosis, remission and relapse), and healthy bone marrow donor samples.
