New pattern of EGFR amplification in glioblastoma and the relationship of gene copy number with gene expression profile

2010

Gene amplification is a process that is characterized by an increase in the copy number of a restricted region in a chromosome arm, and is frequently associated with an overexpression of the corresponding amplified gene. Amplified DNA can be organized either as extrachromosomal elements, repeated units at a single locus or scattered throughout the genome. The amplification of the gene for epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a common finding in glioblastomas and the amplified gene copies appears as double minutes. The aim of this study was to investigate the different patterns of EGFR amplification in 40 cases of glioblastoma using FISH analysis in metaphases and paraffin sections, an…

Strategies for annotation and curation of translational databases: the eTUMOUR project

2012

Altres ajuts: LSHC/CT2004-503094 The eTUMOUR (eT) multi-centre project gathered in vivo and ex vivo magnetic resonance (MR) data, as well as transcriptomic and clinical information from brain tumour patients, with the purpose of improving the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of future patients. In order to carry this out, among other work, a database-the eTDB-was developed. In addition to complex permission rules and software and management quality control (QC), it was necessary to develop anonymization, processing and data visualization tools for the data uploaded. It was also necessary to develop sophisticated curation strategies that involved on one hand, dedicated fields for QC-gene…
