Project description:Frozen tissue specimens from primary breast tumors were collected and profiled using Affymetrix U133 plus 2 expression microarrays. A publication describing the generation of these data is not yet available. However, these data can be used alongside other Affymetrix breast tumour data sets to form large meta-cohorts for breast cancer research, as was done in Lasham et. al. J Natl Cancer Inst. 2012 Jan 18;104(2):133-146. Frozen tumor tissues comprising of >60% tumor cellularity were extracted for total RNA and hybridized on Affymetrix microarrays.

Project description:Frozen tissue specimens from primary breast tumors were collected under IRB-approved protocols from 2 medical centers and profiled using Affymetrix U133 series expression microarrays. This cohort comprises of two subcohorts derived from the Institute Jules Bordet (IJB), Brussels (n=41) (2002) and Guys Hospital, London (n=7) (2003). Dr. Christos Sotiriou (Institute Jules Bordet) directed the microarray work in Brussels. A publication describing the generation of these data is not yet available.

Project description:Frozen tissue specimens from primary breast tumors were collected under approved protocols and profiled using Affymetrix U133 series expression microarrays. This cohort was assembled at the National University Hospital (NUH), Singapore in 2003, and profiled at the Genome Institute of Singapore, Microarray and Expression Genomics Lab. Dr. Lance D. Miller (Wake Forest University School of medicine) directed the profiling work. A publication describing the generation of these data is not yet available.

Project description:To identify genes implicated in metastatic colonization of the liver in colorectal cancer, we collected pairs of primary tumors and hepatic metastases before chemotherapy in 13 patients. We compared mRNA expression in the pairs of patients to identify genes deregulated during metastatic evolution. We then validated the identified genes using data obtained by different groups. The 33-gene signature was able to classify 87% of hepatic metastases, 98% of primary tumors, 97% of normal colon mucosa, and 95% of normal liver tissues in six datasets obtained using five different microarray platforms. The identified genes are specific to colon cancer and hepatic metastases since other metastatic locations and hepatic metastases originating from breast cancer were not classified by the signature. Gene Ontology term analysis showed that 50% of the genes are implicated in extracellular matrix remodeling, and more precisely in cell adhesion, extracellular matrix organization and angiogenesis. Because of the high efficiency of the signature to classify colon hepatic metastases, the identified genes represent promising targets to develop new therapies that will specifically affect hepatic metastasis microenvironment. 57 samples of patients with stage IV colorectal cancer. We compared using Affymetrix chips gene expression profiles between primary tumors and hepatic metastases

Project description:In addition to satisfying the metabolic demands of cells, mitochondrial metabolism helps regulate immune cell function. To date, such cell-intrinsic metabolic-immunologic cross-talk has only been described operating in cells of the immune system. Here we show that epidermal cells utilize fatty acid β-oxidation to fuel their contribution to the immune response during cutaneous inflammation. By live imaging metabolic and immunological processes within intact zebrafish embryos during cutaneous inflammation, we uncover a mechanism where elevated β-oxidation-fueled mitochondria-derived reactive oxygen species within epidermal cells helps guide matrix metalloproteinase-driven leukocyte recruitment. This mechanism requires the activity of a zebrafish homolog of the mammalian mitochondrial enzyme, Immunoresponsive gene 1. This study describes the first example of metabolic reprogramming operating within a non-immune cell type to help control its contribution to the immune response. Targeting of this metabolic-immunologic interface within keratinocytes may prove useful in treating inflammatory dermatoses. In this study, Affymetrix Zebrafish Genome Arrays were used to identify zebrafish Irg1l (a homolog of mammalian IRG1) as a gene up-regulated in response to Salmonella infection. The microarray analysis compared 4 day post fertilisation (dpf) dissected larval zebrafish trunks (approximately 50) that had been injected at 2 dpf with either: (i) PBS (as a negative control) or (ii) live Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium bacteria. The study was performed in triplicate.

Project description:Pancreatic cancer is a devastating disease with both local invasion and distant metastasis. Identifying the genes expressed in liver metastases and signatures of metastatic progression would therefore be of particular importance as they could aid in both recurrence prediction as well as representing novel therapeutic targets. Keywords: Gene expression profiling We have performed microarray gene expression analysis of normal pancreas, primary pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), normal liver and pancreatic liver metastases to identify potential therapeutic targets.

Project description:Obesity is thought to contribute to worse disease outcome in breast cancer as a result of increased levels of adipocyte-secreted endocrine factors, insulin, and insulin-like growth factors (IGFs) that accelerate tumor cell proliferation and impair treatment response. We examined the effects of patient obesity on primary breast tumor gene expression, by profiling transcription of a set of tumors for which the patients’ body mass index (BMI) was ascertained. Sample profiles were stratified according to patients’ obesity phenotype defined as normal (BMI <25), overweight (BMI 25-29.9), or obese (BMI>30). Widespread alterations in gene expression were evident in breast tumors from obese patients as compared to tumors from other patients, allowing us to define an obesity-associated cancer transcriptional signature of 662 genes. Keywords: two group comparison Primary breast tumor specimens were obtained from patients. Study volunteers completed questionnaires used to define historically normal (BMI<=24.9), overweight (BMI 25-29.9), or obese (BMI>=30) patient categories according to established WHO criteria.

Project description:CD4+ helper T (Th) cells are critical regulators of immune responses but their role in breast cancer is currently unknown. This work aims to characterize Th cells infiltrating invasive primary human breast tumors, analyze the influence by the tumor microenvironment and identify Th cell specific prognostic gene signatures. CD4+ T cells isolated from the tumor (TIL), axillary lymph node (LN) and blood (PB) of 10 patients were analyzed on Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays. A confirmation set of 60 patients were studied by flow cytometry, qRT-PCR or immunohistochemistry and analyzed according to the extent of the tumor immune infiltrate. Gene expression profiles of freshly isolated TIL were also compared with TIL that had been rested overnight or with CD4+ T cells [non-stimulated (NS) or stimulated (S)] from healthy donor PB treated with tumor supernatant (SN). Analysis of CD4+ TIL by comparing their expression profiles to those of their conterparts from patient axillary lymph nodes and peripheral blood and healthy donor blood CD4+ T cells were isolated from primary tumors, axillary lymph nodes and peripheral blood of 10 patients with invasive breast carcinomas and blood of 4 healthy donors and analyzed on Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays
