    CHAPTER 6 Multiple putative oncogenes at the chromosome 20q amplicon contribute to colorectal adenoma to carcinoma progression Gut 2009, 58: 79-89 Beatriz Carvalho Cindy Postma Sandra Mongera Erik Hopmans Sharon Diskin Mark A. van de Wiel Wim van Criekinge Olivier Thas Anja Matthäi Miguel A. Cuesta Jochim S. Terhaar sive Droste Mike Craanen Evelin Schröck Bauke Ylstra Gerrit A. Meijer 104 | Chapter 6 Abstract Objective: This study aimed to identify the oncogenes at 20q involved in colorectal adenoma to carcinoma progression by measuring the effect of 20q gain on mRNA expression of genes in this amplicon. Methods: Segmentation of DNA copy number changes on 20q was performed by array CGH in 34 non-progressed colorectal adenomas, 41 progressed adenomas (i.e. adenomas that present a focus of cancer) and 33 adenocarcinomas. Moreover, a robust analysis of altered expression of genes in these segments was performed by microarray analysis in 37 adenomas and 31 adenocarcinomas. Protein expression was evaluated by immunohistochemistry on tissue microarrays. Results: The genes C20orf24, AURKA, RNPC1, TH1L, ADRM1, C20orf20 and TCFL5, mapping at 20q were signifi cantly overexpressed in carcinomas compared to adenomas as consequence of copy number gain of 20q. Conclusion: This approach revealed C20orf24, AURKA, RNPC1, TH1L, ADRM1, C20orf20 and TCFL5 genes to be important in chromosomal instability-related adenoma to carcinoma progression. These genes therefore may serve as highly specifi c biomarkers for colorectal cancer with potential clinical applications. Putative oncogenes at chromosome 20q in colorectal carcinogenesis | 105 Introduction The majority of cancers are epithelial in origin and arise through a stepwise progression from normal cells, through dysplasia, into malignant cells that invade surrounding tissues and have metastatic potential.

  • Runx1 Gene in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Expression Level Signifcance and Impact on Clinical Features
    Runx1 Gene in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Expression Level Signicance and Impact on Clinical Features Fadwa Said Abdelazim Mohamed ( [email protected] ) Cairo University Roxan E Shak National Cancer Institute, Cairo University Naglaa M. Hassan National Cancer Institute, Cairo University Research article Keywords: Acute myeloid leukemia, RUNX1, mutation, gene expression, Egypt Posted Date: April 7th, 2020 DOI: https://doi.org/10.21203/rs.3.rs-20926/v1 License: This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Read Full License Page 1/20 Abstract Background Acute myeloid leukemia represents the highest percentage of all adult acute leukemia variants. Runt-related transcription factor1 (RUNX1), a transcription factor with a known tumor suppressor function was recently reported as a tumor promotor in AML. We investigated the role of RUNX1 geneexpression levelin Egyptian AML patients and delineateits clinical signicance. Methods This study recruited 91 AML patients that were recently diagnosed at our hospital with 14 healthy age- and sex-matched donors of bone marrow transplantation unit. We measured RUNX1 gene expression level using reverse transcription–quantitative polymerase chain reaction. Results We found that RUNX1 gene expression level was signicantly higher compared to the control group (p < 0.001). Patients with FLT3 mutations had the higher expression level of RUNX1 (p=0.023). The male patients expressed signicantly higher level of RUNX1 (p=0.046). Conclusion The RUNX1 gene expression may serve as a diagnostic marker in Egyptian AML patients. Its relation to FLT3 may give clue that patients carrying this mutation may benet fromnew treatments that target RUNX1 in the future.

  • Supplemental Information
    Supplemental information Dissection of the genomic structure of the miR-183/96/182 gene. Previously, we showed that the miR-183/96/182 cluster is an intergenic miRNA cluster, located in a ~60-kb interval between the genes encoding nuclear respiratory factor-1 (Nrf1) and ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2H (Ube2h) on mouse chr6qA3.3 (1). To start to uncover the genomic structure of the miR- 183/96/182 gene, we first studied genomic features around miR-183/96/182 in the UCSC genome browser (http://genome.UCSC.edu/), and identified two CpG islands 3.4-6.5 kb 5’ of pre-miR-183, the most 5’ miRNA of the cluster (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1 and Seq. S1). A cDNA clone, AK044220, located at 3.2-4.6 kb 5’ to pre-miR-183, encompasses the second CpG island (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). We hypothesized that this cDNA clone was derived from 5’ exon(s) of the primary transcript of the miR-183/96/182 gene, as CpG islands are often associated with promoters (2). Supporting this hypothesis, multiple expressed sequences detected by gene-trap clones, including clone D016D06 (3, 4), were co-localized with the cDNA clone AK044220 (Fig. 1A; Fig. S1). Clone D016D06, deposited by the German GeneTrap Consortium (GGTC) (http://tikus.gsf.de) (3, 4), was derived from insertion of a retroviral construct, rFlpROSAβgeo in 129S2 ES cells (Fig. 1A and C). The rFlpROSAβgeo construct carries a promoterless reporter gene, the β−geo cassette - an in-frame fusion of the β-galactosidase and neomycin resistance (Neor) gene (5), with a splicing acceptor (SA) immediately upstream, and a polyA signal downstream of the β−geo cassette (Fig.

  • ITRAQ-Based Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of Processed Euphorbia Lathyris L
    Zhang et al. Proteome Science (2018) 16:8 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12953-018-0136-6 RESEARCH Open Access ITRAQ-based quantitative proteomic analysis of processed Euphorbia lathyris L. for reducing the intestinal toxicity Yu Zhang1, Yingzi Wang1*, Shaojing Li2*, Xiuting Zhang1, Wenhua Li1, Shengxiu Luo1, Zhenyang Sun1 and Ruijie Nie1 Abstract Background: Euphorbia lathyris L., a Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), is commonly used for the treatment of hydropsy, ascites, constipation, amenorrhea, and scabies. Semen Euphorbiae Pulveratum, which is another type of Euphorbia lathyris that is commonly used in TCM practice and is obtained by removing the oil from the seed that is called paozhi, has been known to ease diarrhea. Whereas, the mechanisms of reducing intestinal toxicity have not been clearly investigated yet. Methods: In this study, the isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) in combination with the liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) proteomic method was applied to investigate the effects of Euphorbia lathyris L. on the protein expression involved in intestinal metabolism, in order to illustrate the potential attenuated mechanism of Euphorbia lathyris L. processing. Differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in the intestine after treated with Semen Euphorbiae (SE), Semen Euphorbiae Pulveratum (SEP) and Euphorbiae Factor 1 (EFL1) were identified. The bioinformatics analysis including GO analysis, pathway analysis, and network analysis were done to analyze the key metabolic pathways underlying the attenuation mechanism through protein network in diarrhea. Western blot were performed to validate selected protein and the related pathways. Results: A number of differentially expressed proteins that may be associated with intestinal inflammation were identified.

Furthermore, I took reasonable care to ensure that the work is original, and, to the best of my knowledge, does not breach copyright law, and has not been taken from other sources except where such work has been cited and acknowledged within the text. ________________________ ________________________ Place, Date Arlou Kristina Angeles Summary This thesis describes LINC00920, a tumor-associated lncRNA identified in the transcriptome dataset of the International Cancer Genome Consortium-Early Onset Prostate Cancer (ICGC-EOPC) cohort. SiRNA-mediated knockdown of LINC00920 negatively affected proliferation, colony formation, and migration of PC-3 prostate cancer cells. Gene set enrichment analysis of microarray expression data revealed perturbation of pathways related to cell cycle, cell division, apoptosis, and cell movement.
