Project description:This data set consists of pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) primary bone marrow biopsies from the BC Children's Hospital BioBank, pediatric ALL cell lines, non-cancer bone marrow biopsies, and few ALL PDX. All files are DIA and searched by Spectronaut with a spectral library.
Project description:Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) were harvested from subcutaneous adipose tissue of patients with obesity or healthy controls and expanded for 3-4 passages, and 5hmC profiles were examined through hydroxymethylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (hMeDIP-seq). We hypothesized that obesity and cardiovascular risk factors induce functionally-relevant, locus-specific changes in overall exonic coverage of 5hmC in human adipose-derived MSCs.
Project description:Leukemia cells instruct their surrounding bone marrow microenvironment (BMM) rendering it hospitable to leukemia cell survival. Conversely, how cells of the BMM influence leukemia progression is less well understood. Pleckstrin homology domain family M member 1 (PLEKHM1) serves as a hub between fusion and secretion of intracellular vesicles. Here, we performed label-free quantitative proteomics to investigate the exosomal cargo released by BMM-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) lacking Plekhm1 compared to wild-type cells.
Project description:Relapse and disease progression are the primary causes of treatment failure and subsequent mortality in children B-cell acute lymphocytic leukemia (B-ALL). At diagnosis and during treatment, the bone marrow adipose microenvironment is commonly observed in pediatric leukemia. However, the relationship between the bone marrow adipose microenvironment and disease progression is still not well understood.
