Project description:miRNA expression analysis was done on Uveal melanoma, metastatic and non - metastatic case in formalin fixed paraffin embedded sections, identified from case registry and confirmed by Chromosome insitu hybridization harboring monosomy 3 aberration in metastaic case and no aberration in non metastatic case. 19 miRNAs were found to be expressed only in class I tumors (choroidal melanoma) and not in class II (liver metastasis) and 11 miRNAs were found to be expressed only in class II and not in class I. The tumors were found to harbor oncomirs in both choroidal melanoma and metastasizing melanoma targeting tumor suppressor genes and metastatic suppressor genes. None of the differentially expressed miRNAs in either case were found to be located on the chromosomes which have been proved to carry chromosomal abnormalities. Rather it was found that genes targeted by the miRNAs were found to be present in chromosomal regions that are often found to be deleted 8p22, 13q and 17p.

Project description:Merkel cell carcinoma is a skin cancer associated with the Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) which is found integrated in the genome of the tumor cells. Here 4 MCPyV-positive tumor cell lines (AlDo, LoKe, BroLi and WoWe) were analyzed by comparative gernomic hybridization to define further genetic alterations. Corresponding peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) in case of AlDo and LoKe, purified T cells in case of BroLi and Tumor-derived but virus-negative cells of unknown origin (WoWe1) in case of WoWe served as controls.

Project description:DNA copy number analysis of myxoinflammatory fibroblastic sarcomas, and related lesions, using 32k BAC array CGH. All four cases analyzed with array CGH showed amplification of the region 86.30-87.74 Mb in 3p11.1-12.1. No additional aberration was detected in more than two tumors, except for the deletion distal to the amplification on chromosome 3. Case 1 showed deletion affecting the region from the centromere of chromosome 1 to the 5'-end of TGFBR3. Homozygous deletion was found in one case (case 6) affecting the region 21.08-22.15 Mb on chromosome arm 9p harboring the CDKN2A and CDKN2B genes.
