Project description:To investigate the regulatory mechanisms governing the malignant signature of different gliomas we analyzed microRNA expression profiles in human tumor samples of world health organization (WHO) grade I (benign tumors), II (low grade tumors) and IV (high grade tumors) and from primary cultures obtained from tumor samples of grade II and IV. Patients This study included tumor samples histologically verified as astrocytic gliomas obtained from patients who had undergone craniotomy for microsurgical tumor removal. According to the revised WHO classification, tumors were diagnosed as: grade I or pilocytic astrocytomas; grade II or diffuse fibrillary astrocytomas; grade IV or glioblastoma multiforme. Primary cell cultures from grade II and grade IV gliomas were also obtained and miRNA expression in these cultures were analyzed RNA extraction Total RNA, including small RNA, was isolated from tissue samples using the mirVanaTM miRNA Isolation Kit (Ambion) following the standard protocol. The quantity and quality of the purified RNA was evaluated by spectrophotometric analysis and electrophoresis on denaturing gel of acrylamide. Multiplex Real-Time Quantitative Reverse-Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) The miRNAs were first converted to cDNA using Multiplex RT for TaqMan Array Human MicroRNA Panel. The RT Master mix included 100 mM each of dNTPs , 50 U/ml MultiScrabe reverse transcriptase (Applied Biosystems), 20 U/M-BM-5l RNase inhibitor (Applied Biosystems) and 10X RT Buffer. The 10 M-BM-5l reactions, including 7 M-BM-5l of RT master mix, 2 M-BM-5l of purified microRNA and 1 M-BM-5l of Multiplex RT Human primer pool (Applied Biosystem), were incubated in ice for 5 min and then in a thermal cycler for 30 min at 16M-BM-0C, 30 min at 42M-BM-0C, 5 min at 85M-BM-0C, and then hold at 4M-BM-0C. miRNA levels were normalized to the expression of small nucleolar RNAs, RNU44, RNU48 and RNU6B. All reverse transcriptase reactions, including no-template controls and RT controls, were run in duplicate. Real-time PCR was performed using a standard TaqMan PCR kit procedure on an M-bM-^@M-^\Real Time Fast 7900 HTM-bM-^@M-^] PCR System (Applied Biosystems). The 100 M-BM-5l PCR included 50 M-BM-5l RT product (before diluited 1:60) and 50 M-BM-5l TaqMan Universal PCR Master Mix (2X) (Applied Biosystems). The total volume were loaded into Card TaqMan Low Density Array Human MicroRNA Panel (Applied Biosystem) including a total of 384 human microRNAs publicated on databases www.sanger.ac.uk. The reaction cards was runned at 50M-BM-0C for 2 min and 95M-BM-0C for 10 min, followed by 40 cycles of 97M-BM-0C for 30s and 59,7M-BM-0C for 1 min. All reactions were run in triplicate. Analysis of data was performed using the SDS 2.3 software using the 2-M-bM-^HM-^FM-bM-^HM-^FCt (relative quantitative) method . The M-bM-^HM-^FCt of every miRNA was determined in relation to the endogenous control RNA U6 that was invariably expressed in all samples. The M-bM-^HM-^FM-bM-^HM-^FCt value was determined in relation to the calibrator, namely the normal brain tissue. Resulting data were grouped according to the tumor grading e selectioned using a cut-off value of 3. Results were expressed as M-bM-^@M-^\fold changeM-bM-^@M-^] over normal brain tissue. We analyzed two samples of grade I, two samples of grade II, two samples of grade IV gliomas. Four samples form norma brain were used as norma control. Primary cell cultures form grade II and grade IV samples were used for the analysis. All reverse transcriptase reactions, including no-template controls and RT controls, were run in triplicate.

Project description:We hypothesized that miRNA regulation may be invloved in hydroxyurea-mediated fetal hemoglobin induction. Microarray analysis was utilized as an initial screening tool to determine differential miRNA expression in CD71+ erythroid cells comparing cells from control individuals without sickle cell anemia to patients with sickle cell anemia prior to treatment with hydroxyurea and patients receiving the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of hydroxurea. CD71+ cells were isolated from whole blood of control individuals (n=2), pediatric patients without hydroxyurea treatment (n=3) and pediatric patients at hydroxyurea MTD (n=3). All 8 samples were analyzed for miRNA expression.

Project description:An approximately 40% of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients who discontinued imatinib (IM) therapy maintained undetectable minimal residual disease (UMRD) for more than one year (STOP-IM). We set out to examine plasma miRNAs expression in CML patients who could discontinue IM, to seek the possible distinguishable biomarker in STOP-IM CML patients. We compared CML patients who sustained UMRD for more than one year after discontinuation of imatinib (STOP-IM group) with healthy volunteers (controls). In 7 patients who had discontinued IM with sustained UMRD for more than 6 months (STOP-IM group), samples were collected when IM was stopped. Seven healthy volunteers served as control. Plasma samples were harvested form 2ml of whole blood. Isolation of total RNA was performed using the mirVana PARIS kit (Ambion, Austin, TX, USA). The expression profile of miRNAs was determined using the Human Taqman miRNA Arrays A (Applied Biosystems). Synthetic ath-miR-159 (Hokkaido System Science, Hokkaido, Japan) were used as a control. QRT-PCR was carried out on an Applied Biosystems 7900HT thermal cycler using the manufacturerâ??s recommended program. With the use of SDS2.2 software and Data Assist (Thermo Fisher Sciences), the expression of plasma miRNAs was calculated based on cycle threshold (Ct) values normalized by those of ath-miR-159, which was spiked in each plasma sample. Data analysis was done using GeneSiferâ?? software (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA). The Benjamini-Hochberg algorithm was used for estimation of false discovery rates.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are aberrant expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissue and play a central role in diverse biological processes. We conducted a genome-wide miRNAs screening in 10 pairs of HCC tumor and adjacent non-tumor tissues to test the hypothesis that dysregulation of miRNAs in HCC tumor tissue are partially due to aberrant methylation in relevant miRNAs host genes. Taqman low density arrays were used to examine miRNA profiles in paired HCC tissues, and quantitative RT-PCR was used to validate candidate miRNAs for both discovery and validation sets. A cross-sectional study was conducted in 10 HCC tumor tissues and 10 adjacent non-tumor tissues in Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC), which is approved by the Institutional Review Board.

Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are abundant in the circulation and play a central role in diverse biological processes; they may be useful for early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We conducted a two-phase, case-control study (20 pairs for the discovery set and 49 pairs for the validation set) to test the hypothesis that genome-wide dysregulation of circulating miRNAs differentiate HCC cases from controls. Taqman low density arrays were used to examine genome-wide miRNA expression for the discovery set, and quantitative RT-PCR was used to validate candidate miRNAs for both discovery and validation sets. Sixty-six miRNAs were found to be significantly over-expressed in plasma of HCC cases compared to controls after adjusting for false discovery rate (p<0.05). A volcano plot indicated that 7 miRNAs had greater than 2-fold case-control differences with p<0.01. Four significant miRNAs (miR-150, miR-30c, miR-483-5p and miR-520b) detectable in all samples with varied expression levels were further validated in a validation set. MiR-483-5p was statistically significantly over-expressed in HCC cases compared with controls (3.20 vs. 0.82, p<0.0001). HCC risk factors and clinic-pathological characteristics did not influence miR-483-5p expression. The combination of plasma miR-483-5p level and HCV status can significantly differentiate HCC cases from controls with an AUC of 0.908 (p<0.0001). The sensitivity and specificity were, respectively, 75.5% and 89.8%. These preliminary results suggest the importance of dysregulated circulating miR-483-5p as a potential HCC biomarker. Confirmation of aberrant expression of miR-483-5p in a large prospective HCC study will provide support for its application to HCC detection. A hospital-based HCC case-control study including 20 HCC patients and 20 controls is conducted in Columbia University Medical Center (CUMC), which is approved by the Institutional Review Board. Cases were newly diagnosed HCC patients who were treated in the Hepatobiliary Oncology Clinics, CUMC, and examined pathologically. Controls were recruited from volunteers through the Research Recruitment and Minority Outreach (RRMO) core of Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center (HICCC). Flyers were placed at strategic locations around CUMC where hospital visitors and employees frequent or were handed out at inreach events at the hospital or at outreach events in the community. Interested participants were directed to contact the trained recruitment staff from the RRMO and given further information about participation. Interested participants were excluded from the control group if diagnosed for any kind of cancer or liver disease. Eligible controls were asked to fill out the same demographic and epidemiological questionnaire as HCC cases. In the current study, controls were matched with HCC cases on age (M-BM-15 yrs), gender (male/female) and ethnicities (Caucasian/Hispanic/African-American/Asian).

Project description:Sarcoidosis and tuberculosis share similarities in clinical manifestations and histopathological features. We aimed to identify the microRNA (miRNA) profiles of the lymph nodes of individuals with sarcoidosis and of those with tuberculous lymphadenitis to investigate the value of miRNAs in the differential diagnosis of sarcoidosis and tuberculous lymphadenitis. The miRNA profiles of the lymph nodes of individuals with sarcoidosis, those with tuberculous lymphadenitis (TBLN) and controls were detected by miRNA microarray analysis in the age- and sex-matched development group of the controls (n=3), patients with TBLN (n=3) and patients with sarcoidosis (n=3), and the results were validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction in the validation group of the controls (n=30), TBLN (n=30) and patients with sarcoidosis (n=31). The relationship between miRNA expression and the clinical parameters of sarcoidosis was analyzed.

Project description:Breast cancer is a common disease with distinct tumor subtypes which can be phenotypically characterized by estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor and HER2/neu receptor status. MiRNAs play regulatory roles in tumor initiation and progression. Altered miRNA expression has been demonstrated in a variety of cancer states to date presenting the potential for exploitation as cancer specific biomarkers. Blood presents an attractive medium biomarker discovery. This study investigated systemic miRNAs differentially expressed in Luminal A (ER+PR+HER2/neu-) breast cancer and their effectiveness as oncologic biomarkers in the clinical setting. Blood samples were prospectively collected from consenting patients with Luminal A breast cancer (n=10) and controls (n=10). RNA was extracted, reverse transcribed and subjected to microarray analysis (n=10 Luminal A; n=10 Control). Differentially expressed miRNAs were identified by artificial neural network (ANN) data-mining algorithms. Ethical approval was granted by the Clinical Research Ethics Committee, Galway Roscommon University Hospital Group. Written informed consent was obtained from all study participants. Blood samples were prospectively collected from 20 women; this included 10 consecutive women with a new diagnosis of Luminal A breast cancer and 10 healthy control participants. Luminal A status was confirmed with immunohistochemistry and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The blood samples for the healthy control group were collected from women residing in the same catchment area as the cancer cases. These women had no personal history of malignancy and no current inflammatory or infectious condition. Venous non-fasting whole blood samples were collected in BD vacutainers M-BM-. containing 18mg dipotassium EDTA anticoagulant (BD-Plymouth, PL6 7BP, UK). Total RNA was extracted from blood (1ml) using TRI Reagent BD (Molecular Research Centre, Inc). RNA concentration and integrity were evaluated by NanoDrop spectrophotometry (NanoDrop ND-1000 Technologies Inc., DE, USA) and Agilent Bioanalyzer RNA 6000 NanoChip Kit Series II (Agilent Technologies, Germany) analysis, respectively. MiRNA microarray profiling Expression profiling of circulating miRNAs was performed using TaqMan miRNA arrays and assays in accordance with the manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys instructions (Taqman Low Density Array Human microRNA Card A and Card B, Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). In short, total RNA was reverse transcribed using Megaplex primer pool A (Applied Biosystems) which contained sequence-specific primers for 381 specific miRNAs plus 3 controls (pool A). An additional panel of 384 miRNAs (381 miRNAs and 3 controls, pool B) was performed on a subset of 4 cancers and 4 controls. Real-time quantitative PCR was performed for 667 miRNAs, using A and B microfluidic cards, each containing primers and probes for 381 specific miRNAs plus 3 controls and thermal-cycled on an Applied Biosystems 7900HT instrument. The TLDA cards contain three endogenous controls (RNU44, RNU48 and MammU6 which is repeated four times on each card). Each card also contains a negative control, an assay unrelated to any human species, ath-miR-159a.
