Reconstitution of cell lines and occurrence of complications following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are regulated by genome expression. Microarray technique allows for simultaneous assessment of expression of nearly all human genes. The objective of the study was to compare whole genome expression in children before and after HSCT. A total of 44 children treated with HSCT were enrolled in the study. Gene expression was measured before HSCT (pre-HSCT group; n=44) and after a median of 6 months after allogenic HSCT (post-HSCT group; n=27; all children were included in the pre-HSCT group). Neoplasms were the indication for HSCT in 73% of the patients. Whole genome expression was assessed in leukocytes using GeneChip HumanGene 1.0 ST microarray. The analysis of genomic profiles before and after HSCT revealed 18 significantly different genes with defined function. These genes are responsible for proliferation and differentiation of cells (14 genes), apoptosis (8 genes), migration of cells (3 genes) and fluid/electrolyte homeostasis (2 genes). Our findings allow us to conclude that activation of genes involved in reconstitution of donor cell lines, and those related to immune reactions observed after HSCT, form the genetic background for physiological and pathological processes following HSCT.

View SamplesClear cell renal cell carcinoma is the most common type among kidney cancers, accounting for 80% of all kidney cancer cases and over 30% of patients have metastases at the time disease is diagnosed. The process od epithelial-mesenchymal transition is crucial for the development and progression of cancer, and here we wanted to check the expression of genes on different stages of tumor progression, and find which of them changes significantly with increased grade.

View SamplesThe purpose of this study was to characterize the transcriptional effects induced by subcutaneous IFN-beta-1b treatment (Betaferon, 250 g every other day) in patients with relapsing-remitting form of multiple sclerosis (MS).
Long-term genome-wide blood RNA expression profiles yield novel molecular response candidates for IFN-beta-1b treatment in relapsing remitting MS.
