Project description:Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas are heterogeneous neoplasms that show clinical and biological differences in association with the human papillomavirus (HPV). To provide adequate therapeutic strategies, biological and clinical characterization is essential to stratify patients based on prognostic and predictive factors. Reports on HNSCC are scarce in Mexico, thus in the present study, we analyze 414 cases of HNSCC, including those of the oropharynx (OPSCC), larynx (LASCC), and oral cavity (OCSCC). We determined the presence of HPV and p16 expression. Global expression profiles were analyzed with Affymetrix HTA 2.0 microarray in 25 selected cases HPV+/p16+ versus HPV-/p16-. In our study we analyze 25 samples derived from HNSCC patients. 18 samples were HPV-/p16- and 7 HPV+/p16+. We compared the HPV-/p16- versus the HPV+/p16+ and identified differentially expressed RNAs with a fold change greater than 1.5 or less than -1.5. These data were used to obtain 98 genes that are differentially expressed in absence of HPV. The present study offers information regarding clinical and molecular characteristics of HNSCC, both associated and unassociated with HPV, in Mexican patients.

Project description:This study investigates the influence of human papillomavirus (HPV) on the proteomic content of exosomes derived from head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) cell lines. Label-free quantitative proteomics was used to analyze exosomes and parental cells from HPV16-positive (93VU147T, UDSCC2) and HPV-negative (OCT-1) HNSCC cell lines. Raw LC-MS/MS data were acquired to study differentially exported proteins, with emphasis on exosomal cargo variation and its functional implications.
Project description:We report the first RNA-Seq experiments profiling the effects of DEK loss in HNSCC. Our data also incorporates HPV+ and HPV- tumors to idenfity HPV-dependent and -independent gene signatures. RNA-Seq of DEK-dependent gene signatures in HNSCC cell lines
