Project description:Alveolar soft-part sarcoma (ASPS) is an extremely rare, highly vascular soft tissue sarcoma affecting predominantly adolescents and young adults. In an attempt to gain insight into the pathobiology of this enigmatic tumor, we performed the first genome-wide gene expression profiling study.
Project description:DSS-based cross-linking MS of the human glucose transporter GLUT4 in interaction with the human TUG homolog Alveolar Soft Part Sarcoma Locus (ASPL) protein.
Project description:Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a soft tissue sarcoma with poor prognosis. We analysed primary and metastatic ASPS samples to elucidate candidate molecular pathways involved in tumor pathogenesis. Differential gene expression analysis revealed the neural origin for ASPS and implication of fusion genes expression in the pathogenesis of ASPS.
Project description:In order to dtermine how well a mouse genetic model of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) mimics the human disease, five human ASPS tumor samples and three normal skeletal muscle samples were profiled by RNAseq and compared to samples from five mouse tumors induced by expression of ASPSCR1-TFE3 and three normal mouse skeletal muscle samples, also profiled by RNAseq.
Project description:In order to dtermine how well a mouse genetic model of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) mimics the human disease, five human ASPS tumor samples and three normal skeletal muscle samples were profiled by RNAseq and compared to samples from five mouse tumors induced by expression of ASPSCR1-TFE3 and three normal mouse skeletal muscle samples, also profiled by RNAseq. The reference was really comparing 5 human ASPS tumors to 5 mouse tumors that histologically mimic ASPS, but using skeletal muscle controls (3 from each species) as a sounding board for differential expression.
