View SamplesERG-related B cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP ALL) is a recently described childhood ALL subtype characterized by aberrant ERG protein expression and highly recurrent ERG intragenic deletions. Several studies reported a remarkably favourable outcome for ERG-related BCP-ALL despite a high incidence of apparently inauspicious IKZF1 aberrations. In this study we investigated by integrative genomic analysis the main features of the ERG-related group in a cohort of B-others BCP ALL patients enrolled in the AIEOP ALL 2000 therapeutic protocol. We report a specific microRNA and snoRNA signature that characterizes ERG-related patients with up-regulation of the miR-125b-2 cluster on chromosome 21 and several snoRNAs in the Prader-Willi locus at 15q11.2, including the orphan SNORD116 cluster. Given the current lack of parameters for a comprehensive classification we suggest toexploit the noncoding RNAs signature for differential diagnosis of ERG-related patients.

View SamplesSeveral studies demonstrated IgVH mutation status and ZAP-70 expression as the most relevant prognostic markers in CLL, suggesting the separation of two patient subgroups: with good (MTZAP-70-) and poor prognosis (UMZAP-70+). We determined gene expression of B cells in 112 CLL patients divided into three classes: the first with IgVHMT and ZAP-70-, the second with IgVHUM and ZAP-70+, and the third included both IgVHUM ZAP-70- and IgVHMT ZAP-70+. We found LPL, AGPAT2, MBOAT1, CHPT1, AGPAT4, PLD1 genes encoding enzymes involved in lipid (glycerolipid/glycerophospholipid) metabolism overexpressed in UMZAP-70+. In addition, this study demonstrates the role of ARSD, a gene belonging to the sphingolipid metabolism, as a new gene significantly overexpressed in UMZAP-70+ in respect to MTZAP-70-. ARSD protein was found at significantly higher concentrations in UMZAP-70+ compared to MTZAP-70- CLL B cells and B cells from healthy individuals by Western blotting. Statistical analysis identified a strong correlation between ARSD and IgVH mutation status; ARSD protein level was associated with the requirement of therapy for CLL patients and for this purpose it is as good as IgVH mutational status. Our study highlights ARSD as a promising new prognostic factor in CLL and sphingolipid metabolism as a putative new biological mechanism in CLL.
Gene expression profiling identifies ARSD as a new marker of disease progression and the sphingolipid metabolism as a potential novel metabolism in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

View SamplesBackground: Insulin's effect on protein synthesis (translation of transcripts) and post-translational modifications, especially those involving reversible modifications such as phosphorylation of various signaling proteins, are extensively studied. On the other hand, insulin's effect on the transcription of genes, especially of transcriptional temporal patterns, is not well investigated in the literature.
