Project description:Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) is a highly aggressive bone tumor, and the second most prevalent pediatric bone malignancy. The presence of metastasis at diagnosis decreases the three-year survival rate to 20% and contributes to diminished prognosis. Researches are indispensable for the early characterization of the disease and prediction of metastatic-prone patients, through biomarkers identification. Moreover, there is currently no available data on ES utilizing non-biopsy samples, such as plasma. This study utilizes a proteomic analysis of Ewing's sarcoma patient’s plasma samples and biopsies. Initially, the ES group was compared with the control counterpart. In a next step, the ES arm was further stratified into either initially metastatic and non-metastatic, or poor and good chemotherapy responder groups to identify protein expression profiles that can predict metastatic proneness and chemotherapy response, respectively.
Project description:Ewing sarcoma a rare pediatric tumor characterized by EWSR1-ETS fusions. We performed expression profiling of both miRNA and mRNA from the same Ewing's sarcoma tumors. We propose a novel statistical measure of non-linear dependence between miRNA and mRNA expression, In order to infer miRNA-target interactions. This approach, That we name antagonism pattern detection, Is based on the statistical recognition of a triangular-shaped pattern in miRNA-target expression profiles. This pattern is observed in miRNA-target expression measurements since their simultaneously elevated expression is statistically under-represented in the case of miRNA silencing effect. The proposed method enables miRNA target prediction to strongly rely on cellular context and physiological conditions reflected by expression data.

Total RNAs issued of 39 Ewing tumors were used for mRNA and miRNA microarray analyses. The microRNA data were collected using the Illumina human-6 V1 BeadChip.
