View SamplesTransformation of follicular lymphoma (FL) to a more aggressive disease is associated with rapid progression and death. Existing molecular markers for transformation are few and their clinical impact is limited. Here, we report on a whole-genome study of DNA copy numbers and gene expression profiles in serial FL biopsies. We identified 698 genes with high correlation between gene expression and copy number and the molecular network most enriched for these cis-associated genes. This network includes 14 cis-associated genes directly related to the NFB pathway. For each of these 14 genes, the correlated NFB target genes were identified and corresponding expression scores defined. The scores for six of the cis-associated NFB pathway genes (BTK, IGBP1, IRAK1, ROCK1, TMED7-TICAM2 and TRIM37) were significantly associated with transformation. The results suggest that genes regulating B-cell survival and activation are involved in transformation of FL

View SamplesOsteosarcomas are the most common primary malignant tumours of bone, and almost all conventional osteosarcomas are high-grade tumours showing complex genomic aberrations. We have integrated genome-wide genetic and epigenetic profiles from the EuroBoNeT panel of 19 human osteosarcoma cell lines based on microarray technologies. The cell lines showed complex patterns of DNA copy number changes, where copy number gains were significantly associated with gene-rich regions of the genome and losses with gene-poor areas. Integration of the datasets showed that the mRNA levels were regulated by either alterations in DNA copy number or DNA methylation. Using a recurrence threshold of 6/19 (> 30 %) cell lines, 348 genes were identified as having alterations of two data types (gain or hypo-methylation/over-expression, loss or hyper-methylation/under-expression). These genes are involved in embryonic skeletal system development and morphogenesis, as well as remodelling of extracellular matrix. Several genes were hyper-methylated and under-expressed compared to normal osteoblasts, and expression could be reactivated by demethylation using 5-Aza-2-deoxycytidine treatment for all four genes tested. Globally, there was as expected a significant positive association between gain and over-expression, loss and under-expression as well as hyper-methylation and under-expression, but gain was also associated with hyper-methylation and under-expression, suggesting that hyper-methylation may oppose the effects of increased copy number for some genes. Integrative analysis of genome-wide genetic and epigenetic alterations identified mechanistic dependencies and relationships between DNA copy number and DNA methylation in terms of regulating mRNA expression levels in osteosarcomas, contributing to better understanding of osteosarcoma biology.

View SamplesFollicular lymphoma (FL) shows heterogenous expression of the cell surface B-cell marker, CD20. In order to investigate whether this heterogeneity also marks underlying transcriptional heterogeneity, we sorted tumor B-cells from 8 FL specimens based upon their intermediate or high expression of CD20 and transcriptionally profiled them.

View SamplesNeuroprotective effects of NDP-MSH. We have characterized the signaling down-stream of melanocortin-1 receptor ligation to identify pathways mediating neuroprotective effects of NDP-MSH using transcriptional profiling. In this data set we included the expression data obtained from mouse brain tissue (MOG-immunized wild-type or C57BL/6Je/e mice at disease maximum, d14 after immunization). The data were used to obtain differentially regulated genes in wild-type or C57BL/6Je/e mice upon systemic NDP-MSH treatment.
