Project description:Pulmonary hypertension is a frequent consequence of left heart disease and congestive heart failure (CHF) and causes extensive lung vascular remodelling which leads to right ventricular failure. Functional genomics underlying this structural remodelling are unknown but present potential targets for novel therapeutic strategies. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression underlying vascular remodeling in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension and identified distinct classes of up-regulated genes during this process. Control rat lung samples were compared to samples of aortic banding rat lungs which exhibit pulmonary hypertension

Project description:Burkitt-like lymphoma with 11q aberration (BLL-11q) is a new provisional category in the 2016 WHO classification. The limited number of reported cases does not allow to define whether this is a specific entity or it is a particular variant of other recognized categories such as Burkitt or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. The genetic alterations involved in the pathogenesis of BLL-11Q are not known.
