CD27 and CD45RA can be used to split T cells into 4 subsets, nave cells, CD27+CD45RA+, central memory cells CD27+CD45RA-, effector memory cells CD27-CD45RA-, effector memory CD45RA re-expressing cell, CD27-CD45RA+. It is with in this final EMRA subset that it is belived the senenscent T cells reside. Cellular senescence is accompanied by a senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), to date a SASP has not been demonstrated in T cells.

View SamplesThis series of microarray experiments contains the gene expression profiles of purified plasma cells (PCs) obtained from 7 monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS), 39 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) and 6 plasma-cell leukaemia (PCL) patients. PCs were purified from bone marrow Seriess, after red blood cell lysis with 0.86% ammonium chloride, using CD138 immunomagnetic microbeads. The purity of the positively selected PCs was assessed by morphology and flow cytometry and was > 90% in all cases. 5 micrograms of total RNA was processed and hybridized to the Affymetrix HG-U133A chip following the manufacturer's instructions. After scanning, the images were processed using Affymetrix MicroArray Suite (MAS) 5.0 software to generate gene expression intensity values. Arrays normalization was performed using MAS 5.0 "global scaling" procedure, which normalizes the signals of different experiments to the same target intensity (TGT=100).

View SamplesThis study was performed to understand the gene expression changes that accompany treatment of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Human RCC cell lines were implanted into the flanks of nude beige mice, allowed to reach 12mm in long axis, and then treated with TKIs (sunitinib or sorafenib). Tumors were excised at 2 timepoints (prior to any therapy and at the 20mm endpoint of the study) and gene expression analysis was performed.

View SamplesIntegration of nutritional, microbial and inflammatory events along the gut-brain axis can alter bowel physiology and organism behaviour. The principal neural unit in the bowel encoding these stimuli is the visceral sensory neuron with endings at the mucosa, intramurally and along mesenteric blood vessels. Sensory neurons activate reflex pathways and give rise to conscious sensation, however, the diversity and division of function within these neurons is poorly understood. The identification of signalling pathways contributing to visceral sensation is constrained by the current paucity of molecular markers. Here we overcome these limitations by comprehensive transcriptomic profiling and unsupervised clustering of single colonic sensory neurons revealing 7 classes characterised from both lumbar splanchnic (LSN) and pelvic nerves (PN). We identify and classify neurons based on novel marker genes, confirm translation of patterning to protein expression and show subtype-selective differential agonist activation, describing sensory diversity encompassing all modalities of colonic neuronal sensitivity. Overall design: Sensory neurons innervating the mouse colorectum were labelled by retrograde tracer injection. Single-cell RNAseq was performed on 399 dissociated colonic sensory neurons isolated from thoracolumbar (T10-L1) and lumbosacral (L5-S2) dorsal root ganglia distributed over six 96-well plates. 13 additional negative controls were collected.

View SamplesBackground and objective: The chromosome 13 deletion (del(13)) represents one of the most frequent chromosomal alterations in multiple myeloma (MM). del(13) is associated with an unfavorable prognosis, although there is an increasing agreement that its prognostic relevance has to be related to the ploidy status and the presence of different chromosomal translocations. This study is aimed at providing a comprehensive analysis of the transcriptional features of del(13) in MM. Design and methods: Highly purified plasma cells from 80 newly diagnosed MM patients were characterized by means of FISH and high-density oligonucleotide microarray for gene expression profiling and chromosomal alterations. Results: We identified 67 differentially expressed genes in the del(13)+ and del(13)- groups, all of which downregulated in the del(13)+ cases: 44 mapped along the whole chromosome 13, seven on chromosome 11 and three on chromosome 19. Functional analyses of the selected genes indicated their involvement in protein biosynthesis, ubiquitination and transcriptional regulation. An integrative genomic approach based on regional analyses of the gene expression data identified distinct chromosomal regions whose global expression modulation could differentiate del(13)+, in particular the upregulation of 1q21-1q42 and the downregulation of 19p and almost the entire chromosome 11. FISH analyses confirmed the close relationship between del(13)+ and the presence of extracopies of 1q21-1q42 (P=6x10-4) or the absence of chromosome 11 and 19 trisomy (P=5x10-4). Interpretation and conclusions: Our results indicate that distinct types of chromosomal aberrations are closely related to the transcriptional profiles of del(13)+, suggesting that the contribution of del(13) on the malignancy should be considered together with associated abnormalities.

View SamplesClinical Significance: Understanding the differences in colorectal cancer (CRC) aggressiveness and clinical outcomes in relation to tumor stage and different molecular subsets is at most important for designing treatment regimens. However, molecular signatures for specific phenotypic subsets that predict the aggressiveness and clinical outcomes of CRC, specifically in advanced disease stage are lacking. Therefore, for the first time, the current study has identified a set of molecular markers that are associated with aggressive Stage III CRCs that exhibited microsatellite stable and mutant p53 phenotypic features. These findings might aid in designing aggressive treatment regimens and help to provide insights into the development of novel therapeutic targets.

View SamplesA catalytic role has been proposed in neoplastic angiogenesis and cancer progression for bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). However, in preclinical and clinical studies the quantitative role of marrow-derived EPCs in cancer vascularization was found to be extremely variable. Adipose tissue represents an attractive source of autologous adult stem cells due to its abundance and surgical accessibility. CD34+cells from Lipotransfer aspirates (LAs) of patients undergoing breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery were compared with CD34+ cells from Leucapheresis of normal subjects.
