Project description:Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a precursor lesion that can give rise to invasive breast cancer (IBC). It has been proposed that both the nature of the lesion and the tumor microenvironment play key roles in progression to IBC. Here, laser capture microdissected tissue samples from epithelium and stroma in normal breast, pure DCIS, and pure IBC were employed to define key gene expression profiles associated with disease progression. Tumor and matching stroma were profiled for 9 DCIS patients, 10 IBC patients, and 3 normal breast. Differential gene expression was evaluated for paired normal stroma versus normal epitelium samples, paired DCIS stroma versus DCIS epitelium samples, paired IBC stroma versus IBC epitelium, IBC stroma versus DCIS stroma, and IBC epithelium versus DCIS epithelium.

Project description:To better understand the role of tumor microenvironment in breast cancer progression, we combined laser capture microdissection and microarray analysis to provide a comprehensive catalog of gene expression changes in both tumor and tumor-associated stroma. Experiment Overall Design: We used LCM to isolate the epithelial and stroma compartments separately from each of 14 fresh frozen primary breast cancer biopsies. In the epithelial compartment, we captured normal (N) and malignant (DCIS or IDC or both where available) epithelium from each tissue slide. In the stroma compartment, we captured both normal stroma away from the malignant lesion (NSS) and the DCIS-associated stroma (ISS) and/or IDC-associated stroma (INVS) whenever possible.

Project description:Enriched tumor epithelium, tumor-associated stroma, and whole tissue were collected by laser microdissection from thin sections across spatially separated levels of ten high-grade serous ovarian carcinomas (HGSOC) and analyzed by mass spectrometry. Unsupervised analyses of protein abundance data revealed independent clustering of enriched stroma and enriched tumor epithelium, with whole tumor tissue clustering driven by overall tumor “purity”. Comparing these data to previously defined prognostic HGSOC molecular subtypes revealed protein expression from tumor epithelium correlated with the differentiated subtype, whereas stromal proteins correlated with the mesenchymal subtype. Protein abundance in tumor epithelium and stroma exhibited decreased correlation in samples collected just hundreds of microns apart. These data reveal substantial tumor microenvironment protein heterogeneity that directly bears on prognostic signatures, biomarker discovery, and cancer pathophysiology, and underscore the need to enrich cellular subpopulations for expression profiling.

Project description:Using Laser Microdissection System (Leica Microsystems), RNA samples specific for stroma or epithelium were separately collected from thirteen colorectal cancer tissues and four normal tissues. Both microRNA microarray and gene expression microarray were performed in these samples. Tissue samples from thirteen colorectal cancer tissues and four normal tissues were microdissected using Laser Microdissection System (Leica Microsystems), and RNA samples specific for stroma or epithelium were separately collected.MicroRNA and Gene expression profiles obtained from cancer stromal tissues were compared with that of normal colon stromal tissues. we used the commercially available Human Whole Genome Oligo DNA Microarray Kit (Agilent Technologies) for gene expresson analysis and microRNA array for microRNA analysis.

Project description:Stratification of breast cancers into subtypes are generally based on immune assays on tumor cells and/or mRNA expression of tumor cell enriched tissues. Here, we have laser microdissected tumor epithelium and tumor stroma from 24 breast cancer biopsies (12 luminal-like and 12 basal-like). We hypothesized that the stromal proteome would separate patients with breast into groups independently of the traditional epithelial based subtypes.

Project description:A data set of normal epithelium, serous ovarian surface epithelial-stromal tumors (benign and type II malignancies), stroma distal to tumor, and stroma adjacent to tumor (50 samples total). Additional cel files are included which represent replicate sampling from patients, and cel files that failed quality control but may be bioinformatically interesting. Additional replicate or failed cel files were not included in the final analysis (and so these samples were not included in the matrix). Background: Ovarian cancer is the most lethal gynecologic cancer in the United States. If caught in early stages, patient survival rate can reach 94%, when diagnosed at late stages survival rates drop to 28%. Correct diagnosis depends on the presence of definite symptoms: while ~90% of diagnosed ovarian cancers have symptoms, they tend to be unfocused and subacute. A definitive and early molecular signature of disease is thus desired. To further progress towards this goal, we present an Affymetrix™ human exon array data set measuring ovarian tumor expression, assembled using best practices. Method: Samples were collected from patients with benign and malignant (type II) serous ovarian surface epithelial-stromal tumors. Normal epithelium, tumor, stroma adjacent to tumor, and distal stroma were selected based on histopathology, and isolated using laser capture microdissection. Nugen products were used to perform random-primed mRNA amplification procedures (for full transcript capture) before hybridization to Affymetrix exon chips. Tumor expression and paracrine signaling was assessed using GC-RMA and a two-way Model I ANOVA. Single enrichment ontological analysis and gene network construction were performed to guide inferences about biological context. Results: In total, across 50 microarrays, ~270 million measurements were obtained. Based on comparisons to known ovarian cancer properties as established in molecular genetics literature, the initial analysis presented emphasizes data quality. Major trends between sample classes included: apical surface and tight junction activity, mitotic activity, benign tumor suppression, epithelial-mesenchymal transitioning, tumor oncogene activity, and paracrine signaling. A list of differentially expressed transcripts has been produced to enable rapid comparisons with published biomarker lists, but it is expected that detailed alternative transcript analysis will refine these predictions. Conclusions: A data set of 50 arrays, from carefully dissected serous ovarian surface epithelial-stromal tumors, has been produced, from which high quality measurements were obtained. While relatively small in number, this represents an important addition to the community pool of ovarian tumor samples, and the chosen platform enables bridging between 3' expression and exome sequencing data sets. This represents a significant contribution to the ovarian cancer genetics community. A total of 50 human ovary samples were used in analysis: 23 tissue samples laser capture microdissected from an ovary with a benign serous tumor (specifically 4 normal epithelium samples, 5 tumor samples, 6 stroma samples adjacent to the tumor, and 8 stroma samples distal of the tumor), and 27 tissue samples laser capture microdissected from an ovary with a malignant serous tumor (specifically 5 normal epithelium samples, 8 tumor samples, 7 stroma samples adjacent to the tumor, and 7 stroma samples distal of the tumor). Additional cel files were provided which, although were used in the quality control of the data set, were not used in the final experimental analysis. 8 replicates are included as cel files (1 from each cohort previously listed). 14 cel files were also included which failed quality control. Although the replicate and failed cel files were not used in the final analysis, they may still be interesting in other research.

Project description:Prostate cancer-associated stroma (CAS) plays an active role in malignant transformation, tumor progression, and metastasis. Molecular analyses of CAS have demonstrated significant changes in gene expression; however, conflicting evidence exists on whether genomic alterations in benign cells comprising the tumor microenvironment (TME) underlie gene expression changes and oncogenic phenotypes. This study evaluates the nuclear and mitochondrial DNA integrity of prostate carcinoma cells, CAS, matched benign epithelium and benign epithelium-associated stroma by whole genome copy number analyses, targeted sequencing of TP53, and fluorescence in situ hybridization. Comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) of CAS revealed a copy-neutral diploid genome with only rare and small somatic copy number aberrations (SCNAs). In contrast, several expected recurrent SCNAs were evident in the adjacent prostate carcinoma cells, including gains at 3q, 7p, and 8q, and losses at 8p and 10q. No somatic TP53 mutations were observed in CAS. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) extracted from carcinoma cells and stroma identified 23 somatic mtDNA mutations in neoplastic epithelial cells but only one mutation in stroma. Finally, genomic analyses identified no SCNAs, no loss of heterozygosity (LOH) or copy-neutral LOH in cultured cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), which are known to promote prostate cancer progression in vivo. Agilent whole human genome aCGH oligonucleotide microarrays were used to assess copy number aberrations in 79 specimens from 20 patients as well as two pairs of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) and benign/normal associated fibroblasts (NAF). 3 CAF/NAF sample pairs were also assessed for DNA copy number aberrations and copy-neutral LOH using the Infinium HumanOmniExpressExome BeadChip Kit.
