Project description:The aggressive clinical behavior of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is attributed to specific genetic and molecular mechanisms involved in its pathogenesis, mainly the t(11;14)(q13;q32) traslocation and cyclin D1 (CCND1) overexpression. Nevertheless, evidence of a certain degree of heterogeneity has been disclosed by gene expression profile (GEP) and (immuno)genetic/immunohistochemistry studies. AIM: To use a GEP approach in MCL cell line models.
Project description:In this study we compared the expression of 30215 genes in mantle cell lymphoma-initiating cells (MCL-ICs) with mantle cell lymphoma-non-initiating cells (MCL-non-ICs) and B-cells from healthy donor
Project description:The neural transcription factor SOX11 is overexpressed in aggressive lymphoid neoplasms mainly in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), but its functional role in malignant B-cells is unknown. To identify target genes transcriptionally regulated by SOX11 in malignant lymphoid cells, we have used Gene Expression Profiling (GEP) after SOX11 silencing in MCL cell lines.
Project description:MicroRNAs expression profile was acquired in 99 frozen tissues corresponding to 14 Burkitt's lymphoma, 17 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, 29 follicular lymphoma, 19 mantle cell lymphoma, 8 primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma and 12 lymph nodes. Additionally, we performed microRNA expression profile of 14 Burkitts' lymphoma cell lines, 2 mantle cell lymphoma cell lines, 5 acute lymphoblastic leukemia cell preparations, 5 samples of mononucleosis cells, 4 Epstein Barr virus infected lymphoblastoid cell lines (EBV), 27 purified samples of B cells at different stage of development (13 GC-CD23-/CD39-, 11 GC-CD5- and 3 GC-CD5+), 4 peripheral blood CD19+ B cells, 4 purified samples of T cells (2 CD4+ and 2 CD8+) and 2 samples of bone marrow CD34+ cells. The data were used to discriminate among diverse pathological and nonpathological samples and to identify microRNAs expression differences between pathological samples and their nonpathological counterparts.
Project description:In this study we compared the expression of 30215 genes in mantle cell lymphoma-initiating cells (MCL-ICs) with mantle cell lymphoma-non-initiating cells (MCL-non-ICs) and B-cells from healthy donor Three samples each of MCL-ICs and MCL-non-ICs were isolated from aphresis of 3 mantle cell lymphoma primary patient samples and 2 samples of CD19+ Bcells isolated from buffy coats of healthy donor Microarray include both coding and non-coding transcripts but only mRNA coding transcript were included in this study.
Project description:The aggressive clinical behavior of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is attributed to specific genetic and molecular mechanisms involved in its pathogenesis, mainly the t(11;14)(q13;q32) traslocation and cyclin D1 (CCND1) overexpression. Nevertheless, evidence of a certain degree of clinical/biological heterogeneity has been disclosed by gene expression profile (GEP) and (immuno)genetic/immunohistochemistry studies. AIM: To use a GEP approach to identify MCL subsets with peculiar clinical/biological features in the context of of MCL patients treated homogeneously with an autologous transplantation-based program.
Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma gene expression profiling array VFN-M3. The dataset contains data from 10 samples hybridized on Illumina HumanHT-12 array. -patient's primary lymphoma cells obtained from leukemized blood (P6-PBMC1, P6-PBMC2) -non-malignant B-cells isolated from peripheral blood of 5 healthy donors (VFN-M3-CTRL1, VFN-M3-CTRL2) -lymphoma cell line named UPF7U established from the patient's primary lymphoma cells after 166 and 226 days of in vitro cultivation (UPF7U-D166, UPF7U-D226) -cells established by xenotransplantation of UPF7U cell line isolated ex vivo from subcutaneously growing lymphoma (UPF7U-SC) -patient-derived xenograft (PDX) cells named VFN-M3 established by xenotransplantation of primary lymphoma cells into immunodeficient mice isolated ex vivo from the lymph node like tumor (VFN-M3-LN3) -patient-derived xenograft (PDX) cells named VFN-M3 established by xenotransplantation of primary lymphoma cells into immunodeficient mice isolated ex vivo from subcutaneously growing lymphoma (VFN-M3-SC1, VFN-M3-SC3). Samples were sorted using CD19-microbeads (Miltenyi). For xenotransplantation, NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ mice (referred to as NSG mice) were used.
Project description:Large cell lymphomas of the gastrointestinal tract are currently regarded as diffuse large B-cell lymphomas despite a more favourable clinical outcome and a lower aggressiveness compared to other nodal and extranodal DLBCL. We compared gene expression profiles of 28 gastrointestinal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas and variants with several other B-cell lymphoma entities such as Burkitt’s lymphoma, nodal DLBCL, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma and normal B-cell populations. Based on a subset of NF-kappaB target genes, partitioning and hierarchical cluster algorithms were used which led to comparable results. The different B-cell subsets, the Burkitt’s lymphoma, and the small cell lymphomas formed distinct groups, respectively. The DLBCL were subdivided into one group containing only DLBCL samples, one subset clustered together with the PMBL samples, and another one together with the blastic variants of MZBL. These results implicate that extranodal blastic MZBL represent a distinct subgroup of DLBCL.
