Project description:Gene methylation profiling of immortalized human mesenchymal stem cells comparing HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs cells with human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT)- and HPV E6/E7-transfected MSCs. hTERT may increase gene methylation in MSCs. Goal was to determine the effects of different transfected genes on global gene methylation in MSCs.

Project description:Gene expression profiling (GEP) divides DLBCL according to the cell of origin into GCB, ABC and unclassifiable, exhibiting different mutational profiles. The Hans algorithm, a surrogate of GEP, classifies cases expressing CD10, BCL6 and MUM1 as GCB but it is not clear whether all these cases correspond to GCB-type. Accordingly, LBCL with IRF4 rearrangement usually expresses GCB phenotype (CD10+, BCL6+) together with strong MUM1/IRF4.
Project description:Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) comprises molecularly distinct subgroups such as activated B-cell-like (ABC) and germinal center B-cell-like (GCB) DLBCLs. We previously reported that CD5(+) and CD5(-)CD10(+) DLBCL constitute clinically relevant subgroups. To determine whether these 2 subgroups are related to ABC and GCB DLBCLs, we analyzed the genomic imbalance of 99 cases (36 CD5(+), 19 CD5(-)CD10(+), and 44 CD5(-)CD10(-)) using array-based comparative genomic hybridization (CGH). Forty-six of these cases (22 CD5(+), 9 CD5(-)CD10(+), 1 CD5 (-), and 14 CD5(-)CD10(-)) were subsequently subjected to gene-expression profiling, resulting in their division into 28 ABC (19 CD5(+) and 9 CD5(-)CD10(-)) and 18 GCB (3 CD5(+), 7 CD5(-)CD10(+), and 8 CD5(-)CD10(-)) types. A comparison of genome profiles of distinct subgroups of DLBCL demonstrated that (1) ABC DLBCL is characterized by gain of 3q, 18q, and 19q and loss of 6q and 9p21, and GCB DLBCL is characterized by gain of 1q, 2p, 7q, and 12q; (2) the genomic imbalances characteristic of the CD5(+) and CD5(-)CD10(+) groups were similar to those of the ABC and GCB types, respectively. These findings suggest that CD5(+) and CD5(-)CD10(+) subgroups are included, respectively, in the ABC and GCB types. Finally, when searching for genomic imbalances that affect patients' prognosis, we found that 9p21 loss (p16(INK4a) locus) marks the most aggressive type of DLBCL.
