Project description:Thymic epithelial tumors are a group of neoplasms with heterogeneous histological features and clinical behavior. The identification of markers useful to predict patient prognosis and molecular targets for therapies is limited by a very little understanding of the biology of these neoplasms. We evaluated the copy number (CN) aberrations of genes involved in normal thymus development in thymic epithelial tumors, following the intriguing idea that the ectopic deregulation of genes relevant for proliferation and differentiation of embryonic cells, can contribute to tumor growth. Frequent CN losses of FOXC1 were observed in more aggressive tumors and correlated with a reduced protein expression; tumors negative for FOXC1 expression were associated with a shorter time to progression. In addition, FOXC1 showed tumor suppressor activity in in-vitro models. Our data indicate that FOXC1 loss can identify a group of thymic epithelial tumors with poor prognosis, possibly because its tumor suppressor properties. Two color array CGH of a series of 59 thymic epithelial tumors plus evaluation of 2 thymic carcinoma cell lines and one thymoma B1 cell line.

Project description:Thymoma and thymic carcinoma represent the two most characterized types of Thymic epithelial tumors (TET) which arise from epithelial cell of thymus. According to the different morphological features, lymphocytes and epithelial cells ratio and grade of malignancy, TET are divided in thymoma A, AB, B1, B2, and B3 and thymic carcinoma. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression distinguishing tumoral and normal thymic tissue, thus identifying networks of correlated mRNAs-lncRNAs.

Project description:The thymus is one of the most affected organs during malnutrition, exhibiting atrophy and thymocyte depletion, characteristics that are also observed in several infectious diseases. The detrimental effects of malnutrition on immune responses to pathogens have long been recognized and it is considered a main risk factor for various infectious diseases, including visceral leishmaniasis (VL). However, the thymus has been barely studied during malnutrition and Leishmania infantum infection association. Protein malnutrition modifies intrathymic communication in L. infantum infected BALB/c mice by altering the abundance of proteins secreted to the thymic interstitial fluid (IF). We identified and compared protein abundance in the thymic IF samples from BALB/c mice that were fed with control protein (14%, CP) or low protein (4%, LP) isocaloric diets, followed by infection with L. infantum. By means of a quantitative proteomics approach using iTRAQ we identified 280 proteins of which 81% were reported as secreted by exosomes and 42% were previously described as secreted by thymic epithelial cells. LP-infected (LPi) animals showed a significant decrease in exosomal proteins, suggesting that exosomal carrier system is dysregulated in malnourished animals. LPi mice also exhibited an increase in the relative abundance of proteins involved in lipid metabolism and tricarboxylic acid cycle, suggestive of a non-proliferative microenvironment. Accordingly, flow cytometry analysis revealed that protein malnutrition decreases the proliferation of single positive and double positive T cells. Proteins engaged in glycolysis, protein ubiquitination and mRNA processing were significantly decreased. In addition, a significant decrease in the abundance of galectin-1 and increase of plasminogen were observed in malnourished animals. Together, the reduced cortical area, decreased proliferation, increased abundance of lipid- and tricarboxylic acid cycle-related proteins, and altered abundance of galectin-1 and plasminogen indicate a dysfunctional thymic microenvironment, where T cell migration, proliferation and maturation are compromised, contributing for the thymic atrophy observed in malnourished animals. All these alterations affect the control of the local and systemic infection, resulting in an impaired response to L. infantum infection.

Project description:Although there has been increased knowledge about the molecular biology of neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), little is known about thymic carcinoids and even less about those with excessive hormone disorders, such as ectopic ACTH syndrome. This study was designed to gain insights into molecular networks underlying the tumorigenesis of thymic carcinoids with ACTH secretion. By an approach integrating cDNA microarray and methods of computational biology, we compare gene expression profile between ACTH-producing thymic carcinoids and normal thymus. Totally there are 63 biological categories increased and 108 decreased in thymic carcinoids. Cell proliferation was stimulated which may explain the relatively uncontrolled cell growth of the tumor. Dysregulation of Notch signaling pathway was likely underlying the neuroendocrine features of this type of tumors. Moreover, the inhibition of the immunity and the increased neuropeptide signaling molecules, POMC and its sorting molecule CPE, made the clinical manifestation reasonable and thus validated the array data. In conclusion, thymic carcinoids have distinguished gene expression pattern from the normal thymus and they are characterized by deregulations of a series of biofunctions, which may be involved in the development of neuroendocrine tumor. This study hence has provided not only a detailed comprehension of the molecular pathogenesis of thymic carcinoid with ectopic ACTH syndrome, but also a road map to approach thymic neuroendocrine tumors at the system level. Transcriptome profilings were performed to identify differentially expressed cDNAs between five samples (NCs) from thymic tumor-suffering patients with ectopic ACTH syndrome (i.e., NC1, NC2, NC3, NC4, NC5, NC6) and six samples (ACs) of the noncancerous thymuses (i.e., AC1, AC2, AC3, AC4, AC5).

Project description:Autoimmune myasthenia gravis (MG) is characterized by thymic abnormalities such as hyperplasia and thymoma. Thymus plays an important role in self-tolerance and is involved in initiation and progression of the disease. A large proportion of MG patient show the presence of ectopic germinal centers (GC) in thymus that are absent in normal individuals. However, the exact mechanism how this change in thymus morphology is triggered and if this is related to pathophysiology of the disease remains unknown. In this study we have compared the mRNA profile of thymus samples obtained during a clinical trial (Thymectomy Trial in Non-Thymomatous Myasthenia Gravis Patients Receiving Prednisone Therapy. ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT00294658). We have compared the mRNA profile of thymus samples that have distinct germinal centers with those that lack them using Affymetrix human transcriptome array 2.0 to identify the differentially expressed genes with in the two groups.
