Project description:Genomic profiles of CLL (Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia) patients. 11 CLL patients were selected for detection of genomic aberrations, 8 patients with atypical CLL and 3 patients with typical CLL. Patient's DNA were hybridized against Promega control on Agilent G4410A arrays and scanned with the Agilent G2505B scanner.
Project description:Genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation 35 kb upstream and 5 kb downstream of microRNAs in 24 CLL patients and B cells of 2 healthy donors versus a pool of 10 healthy donors. 26 samples total (24 CLL B cell samples and 2 healthy donor B cell samples) were hybridized against a pool of 10 healthy donor B cell samples.
Project description:Genome-wide profiling of histone 3 lysine 4 trimethylation is used for identification of microRNA transcriptional start sites. Various cell types allow a broad range detection of putative promoters rather independent of tissue specific expression patterns. These data are used for identification of aberrant epigenetic regulation at the respective regions. 5 samples total: 1 primary CLL sample, 1 CLL related cell line -/+ 5-aza-2M-bM-^@M-^Y-deoxycytidine (DAC) treatment (Granta-519), myeloid cell line Kasumi-1 (-/+ 5-aza-2M-bM-^@M-^Y-deoxycytidine treatment); H3K4me3 enriched vs. Input

Project description:T cells may have a role in sustaining the leukemic clone in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). In this study, we have examined the ability of T cells from CLL patients to support the survival of the leukemic B cells in vitro. Additionally, we compared global gene expression of T cells from indolent CLL patients with healthy individuals and multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Apoptosis of purified CLL cells was inhibited in vitro when cocultured with increasing numbers of autologous T cells (p<0.01) but not with normal donors. The anti-apoptotic effect exceeded that of the antiapoptotic cytokine IL-4 (p=0.02) and was greater with CD8+ T cells than with CD4+ cells (p<0.05). The effect depended mainly on cell-cell contact although a significant effect was observed in transwell experiments (p<0.05). Additionally, about 356 genes involved in different cellular pathways were deregulated in T cells of CLL patients compared to healthy individuals and MM patients. The results of gene expression profiling was verified for 7 genes (KLF6, TRAF1, CCL4, CCL5, RANTES, XCL1 and XCL2) using qRT-PCR and immunoblotting. Our results demonstrate that CLL-derived T cells can prevent apoptosis of leukemic cells and have altered expression of genes that may facilitate survival of the leukemic clone. Peripheral blood was collected by venipuncture from CLL patients, multiple myeloma (MM) patients and age-matched healthy individuals with informed consent and approval of the local Ethics Committee in keeping with the Helsinki declaration on the use of human subjects for research.

Project description:Stabilizing mutations of NOTCH1 have been identified in about 10% of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cases at diagnosis, with a higher frequency in unmutated IGHV (IGHV-UM) CLL, chemorefractory CLL and CLL in advanced disease phases. Clinically, the presence of NOTCH1 mutations is an independent predictor of overall survival in CLL and associates with resistance to anti-Cd20 immunotherapy. The Gene Expression Profile was generated to identify the peculiar molecular signatures of NOTCH1 mutated CLL in the context of IGHV-UM CLL. Constitutive gene expression in CLL cells bearing or not NOTCH1 mutation (c.7541_7542delCT). Five samples were selected for each category (WT vs MUT).
Project description:Upregulation of the proto-oncogene TCL1A is causally implicated in various B- and T-cell malignancies. High-level TCL1A correlates with aggressive disease features and inferior clinical outcomes. However, molecular and cell-biological consequences of TCL1A dysregulation are not fully elucidated. Here, we identify CDC20 and other molecules of the safeguarding cell cycle checkpoints as novel TCL1A-interactors. In different model systems of B-cell leukemia/lymphoma, TCL1A overexpression accelerated cell cycle transition, impaired apoptotic damage responses in association with pronounced chromosome mis-segregation and caused cellular aneuploidy. In primary CLL samples, low CDC20 expression correlated with high expression of TCL1A and more aggressive disease characteristics. In line, a low CDC20 expression was a marker for reduced progression-free survival in CLL patients. Finally, knockdown of CDC20 in TCL1A-initiated murine lymphomas promoted chromosome disbalances and leukemia outgrowth. Overall, we discovered a cell-cycle associated effect of TCL1A by interfering with a proficient cell cycle transition. This adds to our concept of TCL1A’s transforming impact by targeting genome stability.
