Project description:Normal human neutrophil development is a complex biological process, where the balance between cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis is tightly regulated by a transcriptional program that results in the production of appropriate numbers of circulating mature neutrophils. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs of 18~25 nt that affect cellular protein levels. Only limited data is available on miRNA expression patterns during normal granulocytic differentiation of primary human cells. We have examined miRNA expression patterns in distinct stages of granulocytic differentiation sorted from human bone marrow and identified highly stage-specific expressed miRNAs. Some of these differentially expressed miRNA are related to each other in terms of seed sequence (miRNA families) and location on the genome (miRNA clusters). These data reveal distinct expression patterns of specific miRNA sets that closely follow the transition of discrete maturation stages along the myeloblast-neutrophil pathway.

Project description:Cancer staging and treatment frequently assume a binary division of tumors into localized or metastatic cancers. We proposed a state of metastatic disease defined by the number of metastases termed oligometastases. Patients with oligometastatic disease may be cured with localized methods of cancer treatment. We analyzed miRNA expression from paraffin blocks of primary or metastatic tumor samples derived from oligometastatic (≤ 5 metastases) patients treated with high dose localized radiotherapy. We report patterns of miRNA expression in the metastatic and primary tumor samples that identify patients who failed to progress to widespread polymetastases. We created a model of oligometastases of human tumors in immune compromised mice. The miRNA patterns of gene expression derived from patients accurately identified oligometastatic patterns in the mouse model as compared to animals that developed widespread metastases. MiRNA signatures may identify patients most likely to benefit from aggressive curative treatment of limited metastatic disease. Tissues: We collected samples from 5 patients with both primary and metastatic tumors available for analysis, 20 patients with primary tumors only, and 9 patients with metastatic tumors only. Eleven of these patients were analyzed retrospectively, while 23 patients were included prospectively from a previously reported radiotherapy protocol for oligometastatsis. Total RNA were derived from FFPE primary and metastatic tissue samples.

Project description:Little is known about the global transcriptional program underlying granulocytic (G) commitment, differentiation and maturation. Using DNA microarrays and Q-RT-PCR, we examined the transcriptional profile of G differentiation of human CD34-positive hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells cultured with interleukin-3, interleukin-6 granulocyte colony stimulating factor and stem cell factor. The goal this study was to identify genes involved in the various facets of G differentiation including commitment, expansion, differentiation and functional capacity. This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series:; GSE5917: Temporal expression profile of granulocytic differentiation of primary CD34+ cells cultured under 20% O2 levels; GSE5918: Temporal expression profile of granulocytic differentiation of primary CD34+ cells cultured under 5% O2 levels; GSE6792: The transcriptional patterns of mature normal PB neutrophils (granulocytes) was examined and used as a control against which the transcriptional programs of cultured granulocytes and granulocytic cells lines can be compared.

Project description:Emergency granulopoiesis refers to the increased production of neutrophils in bone marrow and their release into circulation induced by severe infection. Several studies point to a critical role for granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) as the main mediator of emergency granulopoiesis. However, the consequences of G-CSF stimulation on the transcriptome of neutrophils and their precursors have not yet been investigated in humans. Here, we examine the changes in mRNA expression induced by administration of G-CSF in vivo, as a model of emergency granulopoiesis in humans. Blood samples were collected from healthy individuals after five days of G-CSF administration. Neutrophil precursors were sorted into discrete stages of maturation by flow cytometry, and RNA was subjected to microarray analysis. mRNA levels were compared to previously published expression levels in corresponding populations of neutrophil precursors isolated from bone marrow of untreated, healthy individuals. 1110 mRNAs were differentially expressed more than 2-fold throughout terminal granulopoiesis. Major changes were seen in pathways involved in apoptosis, cytokine signaling, and Toll-like receptor pathways. In addition, G-CSF treatment reduced the levels of four out of five measured granule proteins in mature neutrophils including the proantibacterial protein hCAP-18, which was completely deficient in neutrophils from G-CSF-treated donors. These results indicate that multiple biological processes are altered in order to satisfy the increased demand for neutrophils during G-CSF-induced emergency granulopoiesis in humans.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate activity of protein-coding genes including those involved in hematopoietic cancers. The goal of the current study was to explore which miRNAs are unique for seven different subtypes of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Therefore, the expression levels of 397 miRNAs (including novel miRNAs) were measured by quantitative RT-PCR in 81 pediatric leukemia cases and 17 normal hematopoietic control cases. Except for BCR-ABL-positive and B-other ALL, all major subtypes i.e. T-ALL, MLL-rearranged, TEL-AML1-positive, E2A-PBX1-positive and hyperdiploid ALL have unique miRNA-signatures that differ from each other and from those in healthy hematopoietic cells. Strikingly, the miRNA signature between TEL-AML1-positive and hyperdiploid cases partly overlapped, which suggests a common underlying biology. Moreover, aberrant downregulation of let-7b (~70-fold) in MLL-rearranged ALL was linked to upregulation of oncoprotein c-Myc (P<0.0001). Besides genetic aberrations, in vitro drug resistance predicts clinical outcome. Resistance to vincristine and daunorubicin was characterized by ~20-fold upregulation of miR-125b, miR-99a and miR-100 (P≤0.002). No discriminative miRNAs were found for prednisolone and only one miRNA was linked to L-asparaginase resistance. Finally we show that the expression levels of 14 miRNAs were --independently of subtype-- associated with clinical outcome in pediatric ALL. We conclude that genetic subtypes and drug resistant leukemic cells display characteristic miRNA signatures in pediatric ALL. Functional studies of discriminative and prognostic important miRNAs may provide new insights into the biology of disease. Experiment type: stem-loop real-time (RT) quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) Bone marrow and peripheral blood samples were collected from children at newly diagnosis of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). CD34+ -cells were sorted from G-CSF-stimulated blood cell samples of children with a brain tumor or Wilm’s tumor. Thymocytes were isolated from thymic lobes that were resected from children during surgery for congenital heart disease. RNA from the cell samples was extracted using TRIzol reagents (firma). Only RNA with an RNA Integrity Number (RIN) of ≥ 7.5 as measured by the 2100 Bioanalyzer (Agilent, Amstelveen, the Netherlands) was used as input for the RT-qPCR reactions. All miRNAs were validated with the stem-loop real-time (RT) quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR) technique by using either TaqMan MicroRNA Array MicroRNA arrays (v 1.0, Early Access) or Custom TaqMan MicroRNA Array arrays (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA). Values represent ∆Ct in each individual patient for whom the specific subtype, identification number and cellular drug-resistance is shown on top of each column. Drug-resistance was based on median LC50 values (concentration of a drug lethal to 50% of the leukemic cells) that have reported prognostic impact in children with newly diagnosed ALL. Median LC50 values were used to assign patients as sensitive (≤ median LC50) or resistant (> median LC50) to the drug in question. The ∆Ct value was calculated according to the following equation: Ct value of the specific miRNA minus the Ct value of the internal reference. In case of the TaqMan MicroRNA Array MicroRNA arrays the mean Ct values for snoR-13 and snoR-14 were used as reference whereas in case of the Custom TaqMan MicroRNA Array arrays snoR-1 was used. MiRNAs validated by the TaqMan MicroRNA Array MicroRNA arrays are listed together with the part numbers of the corresponding (stem-loop) primers as available by Applied Biosystems, Foster City, USA. Primers for the remaining miRNAs were custom designed by Applied Biosystems. Abbreviations: MLL: MLL-rearranged precursor B-ALL, B-other: precursor B-ALL negative for MLL-rearrangements, TEL-AML1, BCR-ABL, E2A-PBX and hyperdiploidy (> 50 chromosomes). CD34+: normal CD34+-sorted blood progenitor cells, nBM: normal bone marrow.

Project description:Aberrantly expressed miRNAs contribute to developmental abnormalities and diseases such as cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders, by hybridizing to specific mRNA targets and repressing their translation into proteins. Although miRNA expression signature is characterized in the process of neointimal thickening during proliferative vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, so far global miRNA expression profiling in the different stages of atherosclerosis is completely unknown. We explored stage-specific microRNA signatures in the progress of atherosclerosis in hyperlipidemia mouse model, which may help to identify the critical miRNAs contributing atherosclerotic development and stabilization. Female apoe-/- mice (6-8 weeks, Jackson Laboratory) were fed a high fat diet (HFD, 21% crude fat, 0.15% cholesterol and 19.5% casein, Altromin, Germany) for 3 or 10 months (N=3-4). Serial sections (20 µm thick) of aortic roots and carotid arteries from these mice were mounted on membrane mounted metal frame slides (MMI), deparaffinized under RNase-free conditions, and completely dried. Laser capture microdissection (LCM) was performed with a laser microdissection system (MMI cellcut plus, Molecular Machines and Industries, Switzerland) assembled onto an inverted microscope (Olympus IX71). Plaque tissue or morphologically normal vessel wall of at least 40 sections per mouse were collected. RNA was isolated using RecoverAll total nucleic acid isolation kit (Applied Biosystems) according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
