Genome-wide DNA profiling of marginal zone lymphomas identifies subtype-specific lesions with an impact on the clinical outcome
2011
Abstract Marginal zone B-cell lymphomas (MZLs) have been divided into 3 distinct subtypes (extranodal MZLs of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue [MALT] type, nodal MZLs, and splenic MZLs). Nevertheless, the relationship between the subtypes is still unclear. We performed a comprehensive analysis of genomic DNA copy number changes in a very large series of MZL cases with the aim of addressing this question. Samples from 218 MZL patients (25 nodal, 57 MALT, 134 splenic, and 2 not better specified MZLs) were analyzed with the Affymetrix Human Mapping 250K SNP arrays, and the data combined with matched gene expression in 33 of 218 cases. MALT lymphoma presented significantly more frequently gain…
Secondary resistance to the PI3K inhibitor copanlisib in marginal zone lymphoma
2020
PI3K kinase has a prominent role in the B-cell receptor signaling. Copanlisib, a pan-PI3K inhibitor with predominant selectivity to PI3Kα and PI3Kδ, is Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma, and it is currently under clinical development in other indolent lymphomas including marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). However some patients might eventually relapse because of acquired resistance and so a better understanding of resistance mechanisms is needed. Thus we generated MZL cell lines resistant to copanlisib which could help to design improved therapies
Abstract PO-46: Mechanisms of resistance to the PI3K inhibitor copanlisib in marginal zone lymphoma
2020
Abstract Background: PI3Kδ is expressed in B cells and has a central role in the B-cell receptor signaling. Copanlisib is a highly selective PI3Kδ and PI3Kα inhibitor, and it is currently under clinical development in indolent lymphomas including marginal zone lymphoma (MZL). Copanlisib is Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory follicular lymphoma. Nevertheless, a subset of patients can eventually relapse due to acquired resistance. A better understanding of resistance mechanisms could help to design improved therapies; hence, we generated MZL cell lines resistant to copanlisib. Materials and Methods: Cells were kept on copanlis…
The Global Soil Mycobiome consortium dataset for boosting fungal diversity research
2021
This version of the article has been accepted for publication, after peer review and is subject to Springer Nature’s AM terms of use, but is not the Version of Record and does not reflect post-acceptance improvements, or any corrections. The Version of Record is available online at https://doi.org/10.1007/s13225-021-00493-7. Fungi are highly important biotic components of terrestrial ecosystems, but we still have a very limited understanding about their diversity and distribution. This data article releases a global soil fungal dataset of the Global Soil Mycobiome consortium (GSMc) to boost further research in fungal diversity, biogeography and macroecology. The dataset comprises 722,682 fu…
Pharmacologic screen identifies active combinations with BET inhibitors and LRRK2 as a novel putative target in lymphoma
2022
Inhibitors of the Bromo- and Extra-Terminal domain (BET) family proteins have strong preclinical antitumor activity in multiple tumor models, including lymphomas. Limited single-agent activity has been reported in the clinical setting. Here, we have performed a pharmacological screening to identify compounds that can increase the antitumor activity of BET inhibitors in lymphomas. The germinal center B-cell like diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) cell lines OCI-LY-19 and WSU-DLCL2 were exposed to 348 compounds given as single agents at two different concentrations and in combination with the BET inhibitor birabresib. The combination partners included small molecules targeting important bi…
