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.

Project description:The mutational status of the immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV) defines two clinically distinct forms of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) known as mutated (M-CLL) and un-mutated (UM-CLL). To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the adverse clinical outcome associated with UM-CLL, total proteomes from 9 UM-CLL and 9 M-CLL samples were analysed by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ)-based mass spectrometry. Unsupervised clustering, based on the expression of 3521 identified proteins, separated CLL samples into two groups corresponding to IGHV mutational status. Computational analysis showed that 43 cell migration/adhesion pathways were significantly enriched by 39 differentially expressed proteins, 35 of which were expressed at significantly lower levels in UM-CLL samples. Furthermore, UM-CLL cells under-expressed proteins associated with cytoskeletal remodelling and over-expressed proteins associated with transcriptional and translational activity. Taken together, our findings indicated that UM-CLL cells are less migratory and more adhesive than M-CLL cells, resulting in their retention in lymph nodes where they are exposed to proliferative stimuli. In keeping with this hypothesis, analysis of an extended cohort of 120 CLL patients revealed a strong and specific association between UM-CLL and lymphadenopathy. Our study illustrates the potential of total proteome analysis to elucidate pathogenetic mechanisms in cancer.

Project description:Predicting disease progression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) remains challenging particularly in patients with Rai Stage 0/I disease that have an unmutated immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (UM IGHV). Even though patients with UM IGHV have a poor prognosis and generally require earlier treatment, not all UM IGHV patients experience more rapid disease progression with some remaining treatment free for many years. This observation suggests biologic characteristics other than known prognostic factors influence disease progression. Alterations in long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expression levels have been implicated in diagnosis and prognosis of various cancers, however, their role in disease progression of early Rai stage UM CLL is unknown. Here we use microarray analysis to compare lncRNA and mRNA profiles of Rai 0/I UM IGHV patients who progressed in <2 years relative to patients who had not progressed for >5 years. Over 1300 lncRNAs and 940 mRNAs were differentially expressed (fold change ≥ 2.0; p-value ≤ 0.05). Of interest, the differentially expressed lncRNAs G047155, TCAM1P, and uc.436, have known associated genes that have been linked to CLL. Thus, our study reveals differentially expressed lncRNAs in progressive early stage CLL requiring therapy versus indolent early Rai stage UM CLL. These lncRNAs have the potential to impact relevant biological processes and pathways that influence clinical outcome in CLL.

Project description:The aim of this study is to determine the molecular mechanism by which indoxyl sulfate acts on endothelial cells. Endothelial cells (HUVECs) were incubated with medium containing indoxyl sulfate at concentration found in chronic kidney disease patients (1mM). Since indoxyl sulfate is a potassium salt, control medium contains KCl at 1mM. Cells were incubated during four hours in presence of indoxyl sulfate or KCl. Seven biological replicates were obtained for these two conditions. To understand how uremic solutes participate in endothelial dysfunction and cardiovascular complications of chronic kidney disease patients

Project description:Understanding the crosstalk between malignant B-cells and their milieu could provide clues on the molecular and clinical biology of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL). Aiming to generate novel therapeutic strategies, different groups have studied different CLL proliferative fractions. We previously, identified one of these proliferative subsets in the peripheral blood from progressive unmutated CLL patients. Since the presence of this small subset appears to be a hallmark of a proliferative disease in which B lymphocytes are being constitutively activated in the proliferative centers of these patients, we performed gene expression analysis comparing the global mRNA and microRNAs expression of this leukemic subpopulation. Our results suggest that the proliferative behaviour of this fraction appears to depend on microRNA-22 over-expression, which induces PTEN downregulation and PI3K/AKT pathway activation. Transfection experiments demonstrated that miR-22 overexpression in CLL B-cells switches on PI3K/AKT leading to FOXO1 inactivation, p27-Kip1 downregulation, and overexpression of Survivin and Ki-67 proteins. We also demonstrated that this pathway could be triggered by microenvironment signals like CD40L/IL4 and more importantly, that this regulatory loop is also present in lymph nodes from progressive UM patients. Altogether, these results underline the key role of PI3K/AKT pathway in the generation of the CLL proliferative pool and provide rationale for the usage of PI3K inhibitors. B cells from Chronic Lymphpcytic Leukaemia patients were isolated from blood. By sorting experiments we purify the QF from PF from progressive patients. We extract the total RNA from 8 samples and perform microRNA arrays.

Project description:Genetic studies in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia have uncovered a remarkable complexity of oncogenic and loss-of-function mutations. Amongst this plethora of genetic changes, NOTCH1 activating mutations stand out as the most frequently occurring genetic defect, identified in more than 50% of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias, supporting an essential driver role for this gene in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia oncogenesis. In this study, we aimed to establish a comprehensive compendium of the long non-coding RNA transcriptome under control of Notch signaling. For this purpose, we measured the transcriptional response of all protein coding genes and long non-coding RNAs upon pharmacological Notch inhibition in the human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell line CUTLL1 using RNA-sequencing. Similar Notch dependent profiles were established for normal human CD34+ thymic T-cell progenitors exposed to Notch signaling activity in vivo. In addition, we generated long non-coding RNA expression profiles (array data) from GSI treated T-ALL cell lines, ex vivo isolated Notch active CD34+ and Notch inactive CD4+CD8+ thymocytes and from a primary cohort of 15 T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients with known NOTCH1 mutation status. Integration of these expression datasets with publically available Notch1 ChIP-sequencing data resulted in the identification of long non-coding RNAs directly regulated by Notch activity in normal and malignant T-cell context. Given the central role of Notch in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia oncogenesis, these data pave the way towards development of novel therapeutic strategies that target hyperactive Notch1 signaling in human T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Gene expression was measured 15 patients diagnosed with T-ALL. 8 patients were NOTCH1 wild type, 7 patients were NOTCH1 mutant.

Project description:The B-cell receptor (BCR) plays an important role in pathogenesis and progression of chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). We investigated the BCR triggering-dependent mRNA modulation by stimulating CLL cells with immobilized anti-IgM. miRome of immobilized anti-IgM stimulated CLL cells (n=16) identified a substantial upregulation of miR-132 in both unmutated (UM) and mutated (M) IGHV subgroups. A parallel gene expression profile and an in-silico analysis to identify miR-132 target genes¸ allowed us to focus on SIRT1, that encodes for a histone deacetylase targeting several proteins including TP53. We defined a reduction of SIRT1 protein levels upon immobilized anti-IgM stimulation (P=0.001), and a concomitant increase in TP53 acetylation (P=0.0072). The TP53 target gene CDKN1A was consistently up-regulated in immobilized anti-IgM stimulated CLL cells. Of note, the miR-132 constitutive expression levels in CLL cases (n=134) were of similar magnitude of those obtained in in vitro immobilized anti-IgM stimulated CLL cells. Additionally, high miR-132 expression levels retained a favorable prognostic impact in M (P=0.005), but not in UM CLL patients (P=0.968). The described miR-132/SIRT1/TP53 axis, sequentially characterized by BCR triggering, miR-132 up-regulation, SIRT1 down-regulation and TP53 acetylation, should be considered in the light of emerging drugs targeting the BCR pathway in CLL. Investigated the BCR triggering-dependent gene expression modulation by stimulating CLL cells with immobilized anti-IgM.
