A Gene Signature to Determine Metastatic Behavior in Thymomas
PURPOSE Thymoma represents one of the rarest of all malignancies. Stage and completeness of resection have been used to ascertain postoperative therapeutic strategies albeit with limited prognostic accuracy. A molecular classifier would be useful to improve the assessment of metastatic behaviour and optimize patient management. METHODS qRT-PCR assay for 23 genes (19 test and four reference ge...
متن کاملA time course-dependent metastatic gene expression signature predicts outcome in human metastatic melanomas
BACKGROUND The prognosis of patients with metastatic melanomas is extremely heterogeneous. Therefore, identifying high-risk subgroups by using innovative prediction models would help to improve selection of appropriate management options. METHODS In this study, two datasets (GSE7929 and GSE7956) of mRNA expression microarray in an animal melanoma model were normalized by frozen Robust Multi-A...
متن کاملGene signature-guided dasatinib therapy in metastatic breast cancer.
PURPOSE Dasatinib has limited single-agent activity in unselected patients with metastatic breast cancer. Several gene signatures predictive of dasatinib response in vitro have been reported. The purpose of this three-arm, phase II study was to prospectively assess the utility of three previously published gene signatures to select patients with clinical benefit from dasatinib. EXPERIMENTAL D...
متن کاملA survivin gene signature predicts aggressive tumor behavior.
Gene signatures that predict aggressive tumor behavior at the earliest stages of disease, ideally before overt tissue abnormalities, are urgently needed. To search for such genes, we generated a transgenic model of survivin, an essential regulator of cell division and apoptosis overexpressed in cancer. Transgenic expression of survivin in the urinary bladder did not cause histologic abnormaliti...
متن کاملEpigenetic-aging-signature to determine age in different tissues
All tissues of the organism are affected by aging. This process is associated with epigenetic modifications such as methylation changes at specific cytosine residues in the DNA (CpG sites). Here, we have identified an Epigenetic-Aging-Signature which is applicable for many tissues to predict donor age. DNA-methylation profiles of various cell types were retrieved from public data depositories -...
