View SamplesThis study used tumour and paired normal samples from 28 Szary Syndrome (SS) patients to define recurrent regions of chromosomal aberrations. Our data identified recurrent losses of 17p13.2-p11.2 and 10p12.1-q26.3 occurring in 71 and 68% of cases respectively; common gains were detected for 17p11.2-q25.3 (64%) and chromosome 8/8q (50%). Moreover, we identified novel genomic lesions recurring in more than 30% of tumours: loss of 9q13-q21.33 and gain of 10p15.3-10p12.2. In the Szary Syndrome cases analysed, we could find several small and few large Uniparental Disomies involving interstitial or telomeric regions of LOH occurring mainly for chromosome 10 and to a lesser extent for chromosome 9 and 17. In the attempt to correlate Copy Number data and clinical parameters we find a relationship between complex pattern of chromosomal aberrations, involving at least three recurrent Copy Number alterations, and shorter survival. Integrating mapping and transcriptional data we were able to identify a total of 113 deregulated transcripts in aberrant chromosomal regions that included cancer related genes such as members of the NF-kB pathway (BAG4, BTRC, NKIRAS2, PSMD3, TRAF2) that might explain its constitutive activation in CTCL. Matching this list of genes with those discriminating patients with different survival times we identify several common candidates that might exert critical roles in Szary Syndrome, like BUB3 and PIP5K1B.

View SamplesWe used mammosphere formation assay and label-retention assay as functional cellular approaches to enrich for cells with different degree of cancer stem cell properties in the breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 and performed single-cell RNA sequencing Overall design: Single cells from three different populations: 30 cells from G1 cell cycle phase cultured in adherent conditions, 46 cells with low proliferation cultured in non-adherent conditions (mammosphere assasy), 45 cells with high proliferation cultured in non-adherent conditions (mammosphere assay)

View SamplesCommitted preadipocyte fibroblasts were genetically labelled in transgenic mice by expressing GFP under the control of the locus for Zfp423, a gene controlling preadipocyte determination. These mice are herein referred to as Zfp423-GFP mice. The overall goal was to identify genes differentially expressed between adipogenic GFP+ firboblasts and non-adipogenic GFP- fibroblasts from either inguinal or epididymal fat stromal vascular cultures obtained from Zfp423-GFP mice.
Zfp423 expression identifies committed preadipocytes and localizes to adipose endothelial and perivascular cells.

View SamplesSMCs must undergo specialzed patterning during blood vessel stabilization. We used microarray analysis to identify differentially expressed genes as smooth muscle cells were induced to assemble into a network of elongated cords.
Fibroblast growth factor 9 delivery during angiogenesis produces durable, vasoresponsive microvessels wrapped by smooth muscle cells.

View SamplesKnock-down of LSD1 using siRNA approach induced regulation of several proliferation-associated genes in ER-negative breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231.
Lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) and histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) synergistically repress proinflammatory cytokines and classical complement pathway components.
Cell line
View SamplesTwo colon cancer cell lines are under study. SW480 and SW620. The first one is derived from primary cancer, SW620 are from lymphnode metastatic sites. they both comes from the sampe patient. Polisomal RNA fractions from the two isogenic colon cancer cells lines was purified by sucrose gradient and hybridized on affymetrix hgu133a chips. this study is complementary to the series GSE1323 were total RNA was used instead. Comparison between the polysomal fraction chips and the total RNA chips is performed and the analysis proposed in a paper from the authors (at the moment in preparation).

View SamplesSW480 and SW620 are colon cancer cells lines derived from a primary tumor and a corresponding metastasis from the same individual. The numbers indicate the three indipendent replicate RNA samples processed. Three different software packages were used in parallel for signal calculation: Affymetrix microarray suite 5.0, DNA-Chip analyzer, and Robust multi-array analyses.
