Project description:Establishment of a tumor bank, consisting of tissue samples of tumor patients (benign and malign tumors) and healthy people as controls. The tissue samples will be collected systematically together with the corresponding clinical data. The biological samples, the clinical date together with prospective experimental date constitute the entity of the tissue tumor bank.
This tumor bank for tissue samples, together with our tumorbank for blood samples (NCT01763125) combined constitute the entity "Tumorbank".

Project description:Microbiome collection date model is a Named Entity Recognition (NER) model that identifies and annotates the collection date of microbiome samples in texts. This is the final model version used to annotate metagenomics publications in Europe PMC and enrich metagenomics studies in MGnify with collection date metadata from literature.

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to establish and molecularly characterize non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) organoids. Generation of NSCLC organoids would provide additional preclinical models for drug screening and biomarker discovery. Methods: Patient lung tumors and previously established patient-derived xenografts (PDX) were processed to generate organoids. Total RNA was extracted and subjected to RNA-seq to examine the gene expression similarity between patient/PDX/organoid of the same model using t-SNE clustering. Results: Through RNA-sequencing, we generated TPM values of patient, PDX and organoid samples of 5 models. t-SNE analysis showed that the patient/PDX/organoid of the same models clustered together. The lung adenocarcinoma samples formed a separate cluster from the squamous cell carcinoma samples based on gene expression. Conclusions: Our study introduces the establishment of NSCLC organoids and demonstrates the gene expession similarity of the organoid model to its corresponding PDX and patient sample.

Project description:Cell lines play an important role for studying tumor biology and novel therapeutic agents. We demonstrated that cell lines represent a useful and reliable in vitro system for studying basic mechanisms in lung cancer. Moreover, we presented 3 novel, comprehensively characterized SCC cell lines.

Project description:Despite significant progress in the molecular understanding of medulloblastoma, stratification of risk in patients remains a challenge. Focus has shifted from clinical parameters to molecular markers, such as expression of specific genes and selected genomic abnormalities, to improve accuracy of treatment outcome prediction. Here, we show how integration of high-level clinical and genomic features or risk factors, including disease subtype, can yield more comprehensive, accurate, and biologically interpretable prediction models for relapse versus no-relapse classification. We also introduce a novel Bayesian nomogram indicating the amount of evidence that each feature contributes on a patient-by-patient basis. The training set consisted of 96 samples for which relapse status at 30 months post-treatment was known. Matched normal blood samples were collected through the COG Tumor Bank (protocol ACNS02B3) and from Children's Hospital Boston under institutional review board approval. The test set included 78 samples: 47 samples from our original study6 not used for training, 16 samples from Kool et al,33 and 15 samples from the COG Tumor Bank. All training and test samples correspond to patients at least 3 years old treated with conventional chemotherapy, surgical resection, and craniospinal irradiation. In the test set, 15 samples (Children's Oncology Group Tumor Bank) were processed as described above. Of those 15, a total of six have DNA copy number data. Another set of 47 samples was taken from the data set from Pomeroy et al. (Affymetrix Hu6800; Affymetrix). None of those samples had DNA copy number data. The remaining 16 samples, all with DNA copy number data, came from Kool et al. (Affymetrix U133; Affymetrix).

Project description:Establishment and subsequent maintenance of distinct chromatin domains during embryonic stem cell (ESC) differentiation are crucial for lineage specification and cell fate determination. Here we show that the histone chaperone Chromatin Assembly Factor 1 (CAF-1), which is recruited to DNA replication forks through its interaction with proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) for nucleosome assembly, participates in the establishment of H3K27me3-mediated silencing during differentiation. Deletion of CAF-1 p150 subunit impairs the silencing of many genes including Oct4, Sox2 and Nanog as well as the establishment of H3K27me3 at these gene promoters during ESC differentiation. Mutations of PCNA residues involved in recruiting CAF-1 to the chromatin also result in defects in differentiation in vitro and impair early embryonic development as p150 deletion. Together, these results reveal that the CAF-1-PCNA nucleosome assembly pathway plays an important role in the establishment of H3K27me3-mediated silencing during cell fate determination.

Project description:Tumor heterogeneity and its drivers impair tumor progression and cancer therapy. Single-cell RNA sequencing has been used to investigate the heterogeneity of tumor ecosystems. However, most methods of scRNA-seq amplify the termini of polyadenylated transcripts, making it challenging to perform total RNA analysis and somatic mutation analysis during tumor processing. Additionally, frozen tumor samples constitute a vast and valuable material bank for cancer research. Therefore, we developed a high-throughput and high-sensitivity method called HH-seq, which combines random primers and a pre-index strategy in the droplet microfluidic platform. This innovative method allows for the detection of total RNA in single nuclei from clinically frozen samples. We also established a robust pipeline to facilitate the analysis of full-length RNA-seq data. We applied HH-seq to more than 730,000 single nuclei from 32 patients with various tumor types. The pan-cancer study enables us to comprehensively profile data on the tumor transcriptome, including expression levels, mutations, splicing patterns and clone dynamic, etc. We identified new malignant cell subclusters and explored their specific function across cancers. Furthermore, we investigated the malignant status of epithelial cells among different cancer types with respect to mutation and splicing patterns. The ability to detect full-length RNA at the single-nucleus level provides a powerful tool for studying complex biological systems and has broad implications for understanding tumor pathology.

Project description:The eukaryotic translation initiation factor (eIF) 3a is described in various tumor entities as potential tumor marker involved in development and progression of cancer. eIF3a is the largest subunit of the eIF3 complex, a key functional entity in 80S establishment and translation initiation. We hypothesize that eIF3a is more a specific than global translation initiator and involved in signalling pathways that are frequently targeted in UBC therapy. Methods: In FFPE samples of UBC patients eIF3a expression was analysed together with overall survival. In cell culture we investigated proliferation, migration, clonogenicity and tumorgenicity of UBC cell lines with and without knockdown of eIF3a and compared the cytotoxicity of eIF3a knockdown with other translational inhibitors, including the chemotherapeutic Rapamycine. Detailed information on changed gene expression and global translation initiation were gathered by mRNA expresssion and polysomal profiling. Results: and Conclusion eIF3a is upregulated in UBC and high expression of eIF3a corresponds with longer overall survival in low grade tumors. Knockdown of eIF3a in UBC cell lines reduces their malignant phenotype, including reduced tumor growth in xenotransplanted mice. eIF3a regulates DNA damage response (ATM, ATR, CDC25A) on a translational level and we show that reduction in eIF3a expression does not hamper global translation initiation.

Project description:As part of a study of establishment of silencing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, we performed ChIP-seq on myc-tagged Sir4 in several conditions. Included in those conditions are wild-type cycling cells, cycling sir3∆ cells, and various experiments during which silencing establishment was controlled using the inducible SIR3-EBD allele. Silencing establishment experiments were performed in both wild-type and dot1∆ cells.
