A ""Cartes d'Identite des Tumeurs"" (CIT) project from the french Ligue Nationale Contre le Cancer (<a href="http://cit.ligue-cancer.net" target="_blank">http://cit.ligue-cancer.net</a>). 73 samples (60 tumoral, 6 normal kidneys (NK), 3 fetal kidneys (FK) and 4 cell lines (L)), hybridized on Affymetrix HG-U133A GeneChips.Tumor classification based on a characterization of WT1 and Betacatenin. Identification of major differences between two categories of Wilms' Tumors defined according to WT1 and CTNNB1 genomic and expression features. First large scale study based on post-chemotherapy resected tumors, according to the SIOP protocoles.

Gene expression classification of colon cancer into molecular subtypes: characterization, validation, and prognostic value.

View SamplesFrom a clinical and molecular perspective, colon cancer (CC) is a heterogeneous disease but to date no classification based on high-density transcriptome data has been established. The aim of this study was to build up a robust molecular classification ofmRNA expression profiles (Affymetrix U133Plus2) ofa large series of 443 CC and 19 non-tumoral colorectal mucosas, and to validate it on an independent serie of 123 CC and 906 public dataset.We identified and validated six molecular subtypes in this large cohort as a combination of multiple molecular processes that complement current disease stratification based on clinicopathological variables and molecular markers. The biological relevance of these subtypes was consolidated by significant differences in survival. These insights open new perspectives for improving prognostic models and targeted therapies.

View SamplesThe therapy-induced PML/RARA catabolism elicits the loss of APL-initiating cell self-renewal through PML NB reformation and P53 activation. These results explain the curative activity of the RA/arsenic combination, the resistance to RA of PLZF/RARA-driven APLs and they raise the prospect that activation of this PML/P53 checkpoint might have therapeutic values in other malignancies.

View SamplesSporadic early onset colorectal carcinoma (EOCRC) is a growing problem that remains poorly understood. Clinical specificities and mechanisms of tumorigenesis might be relevant to both diagnosis and treatment. In this prospective study, clinicopathological features, genomic and gene expression profiles of sporadic EOCRC were compared to other well defined groups of CRC.
Sporadic early-onset colorectal cancer is a specific sub-type of cancer: a morphological, molecular and genetics study.

View SamplesZBTB4 is a mammalian transcription factor with Zinc fingers and a BTB/POZ domain, which can bind methylated CpGs, as well as certain unmethylated consensus sequences. ZBTB4 is frequently downregulated in human cancers, but it is unclear whether this is a cause or consequence of transformation. To investigate the role of ZBTB4 in normal and pathological conditions, we generated Zbtb4-/- mice

View SamplesObjective: We performed whole-blood transcriptomic profiling for patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who received rituximab (RTX). We aimed to identify a molecular signature that could predict the clinical response to RTX and transcriptomic changes after RTX therapy.

View SamplesPulmonary endothelial dysfunction plays an integral role in mediating the initiation and progression of pulmonary vascular remodelling, an important feature of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Our aim was to decipher the gene expression program of endothelial cells derived from circulating endothelial progenitor (EPCs) to gain insight into the pathological process of PAH associated with systemic sclerosis (SSc), which is the most extreme vascular phenotype of this disease.
