Affymetrix Murine Genome U74A Version 2 Array (mgu74av2)
Description
In this study we used the cre-loxP recombinase system. All mice were genetically modified in as much as all mice had exon 4 of the IGF-I gene flanked by loxP sites. In the knockouts, Mx-Cre had also been introduced, which results in inactivation of the IGF-I gene specifically in the liver. RNA from liver, skeletal muscle, heart, fat (retroperitoneal fat) and bone (vertebrae) was extracted from 6 control and 7 mice deficient of liver-derived insulin-like growth factor-I (LI-IGF-I-/- mice) by Tri Reagent (Sigma, St. Louis, MO, USA) and purified using spin columns from Rneasy Total RNA Isolation Kit (Qiagen, Chatsworth, CA, USA). For microarray analysis, the RNA samples were pooled three or two, resulting in three pools per group while for the confirmatory RT-PCR analyses individual mice (n=6-7) were analyzed. For each organ, there were three pooled samples from the mice with deficiency of liver-derived IGF-I and 3 pooled samples from the wildtype mice i.e. intact IGF-I gene. The pooled RNA was reverse transcribed into cDNA, labeled, and analyzed by DNA microarray (MG-U74Av2 Array; Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA). Scanned output files were analyzed using Affymetrix Micro Array Suite version 4.0.1 software (Affymetrix). To allow comparison of gene expression, the gene chips were globally scaled to an average intensity of 500. Each of the three LI-IGF-I-/- chips was compared with the three control chips, generating a total of nine comparison files. Only the genes that were regarded as “changed” according to the Affymetrix algorithm in four to nine of the comparisons were selected for further analysis. We then calculated an average-fold change for the nine comparisons of the selected genes. For a gene to be regarded as consistently regulated in the LI-IGF-I-/- mice, the average-fold increase or decrease of the nine comparisons was set as at least 1.5 fold in at least 4 of the 5 analyzed organs. Microarray showed that heat shock protein 1A (Hspa1a), heat shock protein 1B (Hspa1b), and connective tissue growth factor (Ctgf) were decreased in all organs that expressed these genes. CCAAT/enhancer protein delta (Cebpd) decreased in 4 of the 5 analyzed organs. The RT-PCR analyses that were performed later confirmed that mRNA levels of Hspa1a, Hspa1b, and Ctgf decreased in LI-IGF-I-/- mice in skeletal muscle tissue while mRNA levels of Cebpd were unchanged.

Description
The radiolabelled somatostatin analogue 177Lu-octreotate is a promising treatment option for malignant neuroendocrine tumors that overexpress somatostatin receptors. The human small intestine neuroendocrine tumor cell line GOT1 and Medullary thyroid carcinoma model GOT2 have shown promising treatment response to 177Lu-octreotate in xenografted mice. In clinical studies, however, only low cure rates have been achieved to date. In vitro and preclinical in vivo studies have shown that irradiation can up-regulate the expression of somatostatin receptors and thereby give an increased uptake of 177Lu-octreotate. The cellular processes that underlie positive treatment response to 177Lu-octreotate are otherwise largely unknown. Genome-wide analysis of tumor cell responses in this successful mouse model offers a venue to identify critical treatment parameters and to optimize clinical effectiveness of 177Lu-octreotate therapy. Combining 177Lu-octreotate with other anti-tumor agents has also been proposed as a strategy for optimization. Some studies have shown synergistic effects in tumor cell killing and volume reduction The hedgehog signaling pathway is involved in embryonic development and tissue regeneration and can be/is abnormally activated in various cancers. Inhibition of the hedgehog signaling pathway has yielded promising therapeutic effects on NE tumors and may potentially enhance the effects of 177Lu-octreotate treatment in patients.

In xenografted tumors, the human stromal components have been replaced with mouse stroma, which may have an impact in the treatment response of the xenografts.

Description
Specific microRNA (miRNA) signatures have been associated with different cytogenetic subtypes in acute leukemias. This finding prompted us to investigate potential associations between genetic abnormalities in multiple myeloma (MM) and singular miRNA expression profiles. Moreover, global gene expression profiling was also analyzed to find correlated miRNA-gene expression and select miRNA target genes that show such correlation. For this purpose, we analyzed the expression level of 365 miRNAs and the gene expression profiling in sixty newly diagnosed MM patients, selected to represent the most relevant recurrent genetic abnormalities. Supervised analysis showed significantly deregulated miRNAs in the different cytogenetic subtypes as compared to normal PC. Interestingly, miR-1 and miR-133a clustered on the same chromosomal loci, were specifically overexpressed in the cases with t(14;16). The analysis of the relationship between miRNA expression and their respective target genes showed a conserved inverse correlation between several miRNAs deregulated in MM cells and CCND2 expression level. These results illustrate, for the first time, that miRNA expression pattern in MM is associated with genetic abnormalities, and that the correlation of the expression profile of miRNA and their putative mRNA targets is useful to find statistically significant protein-coding genes in MM pathogenesis associated to changes in specific miRNAs.

Description
The tumoral clone of Waldenstrms macroglobulinemia (WM) shows a wide morphological heterogeneity which ranges from B-lymphocytes (BL) to plasma cells (PC). By means of genome-wide expression profiling we have been able to identify genes exclusively deregulated in BL and PC from WM, but with a similar expression pattern in their corresponding cell-counterparts from CLL and MM, as well as normal individuals. The differentially expressed genes have important functions in B-cell differentiation and oncogenesis. Thus, two of the genes down-regulated in WM-BL were IL4R, which plays a relevant role in CLL B cell survival, and BACH2 that participates in the development of class-switched PC. Interestingly, one of the up-regulated genes in WM-BL was IL6. A set of 4 genes was able to discriminate clonal B-lymphocytes from WM and CLL: LEF1 (WNT/catenin pathway), MARCKS, ATXN1 and FMOD. We also found deregulation of genes involved in plasma cell differentiation such as PAX5 which was overexpressed in WM-PC, and IRF4 and BLIMP1 which were underexpressed. In addition, three of the target genes activated by PAX5 -CD79, BLNK and SYK- were up-regulated in WM-PC. In summary, these results indicate that both PC and BL from WM are genetically different from the MM and CLL cell-counterpart.
