Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of primary neuroblastomas. The Illumina 450k methylation array was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 485,000 CpGs in 58 neuroblastomas. Data were analyzed with regard to differential methylation at ATRX and DAXX loci in relation to genomic MYCN, TERT and ATRX status, presence of alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT) and TERT expression. The analysis is part of the study: A mechanistic classification of clinical phenotypes in neuroblastoma (Ackermann et al., 2018)
Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of primary neuroblastomas. The Illumina 450k methylation array was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 485,000 CpGs in 105 neuroblastomas. Tumors were derived from 40 low-risk, 9 intermediate-risk and 56 high-risk patients.

Tumors were derived from 40 low-risk, 9 intermediate-risk and 56 high-risk patients. Bisulphite converted DNA from the 105 samples were hybridised to the llumina HumanMethylation450 BeadChip
Project description:RNA expression profiles of 105 primary neuroblastomas derived from customized 4 x 44k oligonucleotide microarrays (Agilent Technologies). These profiles are part of an integrative study combining genomewide epigenetic profiles with transcriptome data of the same neuroblastoma cohort. Tumors were derived from 40 low-risk, 9 intermediate-risk and 56 high-risk patients.

Project description:SNP arrays were combined with next generation sequencing (NGS) to precisely define the deleted region in 17 primary 11q-loss neuroblastomas and identify allelic variants in genes relevant for neuroblastoma aetiology. We assessed PARP inhibitor olaparib in combination with other chemotherapy medications using both in vitro and in vivo models.

Project description:We present the first computational approach to reconstruct the sequence of copy number alterations driving carcinogenesis from the analysis of several tumor samples of a same patient. Applied to BAC array-CGH and SNP array data from bladder and breast cancers, this method proved highly valuable to establish the clonal relationships between primary tumors and recurrences and to identify the chromosome aberrations at the initiation of tumorigenesis. Keywords: Comparative Genomic Hybridization An algorithm was developed to reconstruct tumors lineage and the sequence of copy number alterations along tumorigenesis from the analysis of several samples from a same patient. The data here consist in CGH data from 58 bladder tumors. 50 of these tumors come from independent samples and were used to compute the frequencies of breakpoints at each location. The 8 other samples (S1_A, S1_B, S2_A, S2_B, S3_A, S3_B, S3_C and S3_D) are multiple tumors from 3 patients. They were used to reconstruct the sequence of chromosome aberrations along cancer development in these 3 patients.
