Bone marrow samples were collected after patients’ written informed consent in accordance with the Declaration of Helsinki and institutional research board approval from Montpellier University hospital. Patients’ MM cells were purified using anti-CD138 MACS microbeads (Miltenyi Biotech, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany). RNA and genomic DNA were extracted using Qiagen kits (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) and their gene expression profile (GEP) obtained using Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 microarrays as described.18 (link) Plasma cell labeling index (PCLI)19 (link) was investigated using BrdU incorporation and flow cytometry in 101 patients at diagnosis. Correlation between gene expression and PCLI was determined with a Spearman’s test. We used publicly available Affymetrix GEP (Gene Expression Omnibus, accession number GSE2658) of a cohort of 345 purified MM cells from previously untreated patients from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS, Little Rock, AR), termed in the following UAMS-TT2 cohort. These patients were treated with total therapy 2 including high-dose melphalan (HDM) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT).20 (link) We also used Affymetrix data from the total therapy 3 cohort (UAMS-TT3; n=158; E-TABM-1138)21 (link) of 188 relapsed MM patients subsequently treated with bortezomib (GSE9782) from the study by Mulligan et al.22 (link)

Analyzing Cervical Cancer Transcriptome Using Oncomine

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Oncomine is a bioinformatics platform aimed at collecting, standardizing and analyzing cancer transcriptome microarray data (http://www.oncomine.org) [25 (link)]. We used Oncomine 4.5 to analyze the expression of top MRs (CENPF and TOP2A) in different cancers types. All datasets were filtered using the gene symbol, “Analysis Type = Cancer vs. Cancer Analysis” and “Cancer Type = cervical cancer”. The “Bittner Multi-cancer” dataset was returned as the top significant dataset. “Bittner Multi-cancer” is from the Expression Project for Oncology (expO) which contains 1911 various tumor samples analyzed on Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays (unpublished, GEO ID, GSE2109). The log2 median-centered intensity was used as gene expression value. The expression difference of a MR in cervical cancer vs. other cancer types was tested using Student’s t-test.

Comparative Analysis of Prostate Cancer Transcriptomes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Gene expression profiles in normal and prostate cancer tissues were assessed using the RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) dataset derived from The Cancer Genome Atlas–Prostate Adenocarcinoma (TCGA-PRAD) project20 (link) as the primary approach to compare gene expression between normal and cancerous tissues. In addition, complementary DNA (cDNA) microarray datasets on the Oncomine online platform21 (link),22 (link),23 (link),24 (link) were also used to verify the RNA-seq data. These cDNA microarray datasets were generated with Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays (Affymetrix, Waltham, MA, USA).
Cell type-specific gene expression in the prostate gland was assessed with the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) dataset GDS1973,25 (link) generated from four different cell types using an antibody pull-down approach against distinct cell surface-specific markers. Immunoprecipitation-pulled down cells were collected for total RNA extracted, followed by RNA-seq analysis.

Evaluating FOXM1 mRNA Levels in Myeloma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Levels of FOXM1 mRNA in myeloma cells were determined using Affymetrix U133Plus 2.0 microarrays (Santa Clara, CA) as previously described [15 (link), 16 (link)]. Statistical analysis of microarray data relied on GCOS1.1 software (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA). Patients at UAMS were treated using the Total Therapy 2 regimen, the backbone of which is high-dose melphalan therapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Half of the patients received thalidomide both during intensive therapy and as maintenance therapy. The therapeutic approach to relapsing disease was not uniform and depended mainly on the time to relapse, the pace of relapse (slow versus aggressive), the presence or absence of organ dysfunction, and the patient’s overall health status, physical and mental fitness and treatment preference.

Gene Expression Profiling of Multiple Myeloma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
A total of 71 newly diagnosed MM patients screened at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and with simultaneously available information on CD19 and CD81 immunophenotypic patterns of expression and GEP were included in this analysis. An aliquot of BM aspirate was collected to isolate CD138+ PCs with immunomagnetic bead selection (autoMACS; Miltenyi Biotec, Bergisch Gladbach, Germany), as described elsewhere.25 (link) Purity of PC was monitored by flow cytometry and was ≥ 85%. Total RNA was used to measure GEP with Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 microarrays. Differentially expressed genes between classes were identified using the Significant Analysis of Microarrays algorithm. Analyses were performed using BRB-ArrayTools (version 4.4.1) developed by Dr Richard Simon and the BRB-ArrayTools Development Team, available at http://linus.nci.nih.gov/BRB-ArrayTools.html.

XG HMCLs were obtained as previously described [18 (link)]. JJN3 was kindly provided by Dr. Van Riet (Brussels, Belgium), JIM3 by Dr. MacLennan (Birmingham, UK), and MM1S by Dr. S. Rosen (Chicago, USA). AMO-1, LP1, L363, U266, OPM2, and SKMM2 were purchased from DSMZ (Braunsweig, Germany) and RPMI8226 from ATTC (Rockville, MD, USA). All HMCLs derived in our laboratory were cultured in the presence of recombinant IL-6. HMCLs were authenticated according to their short tandem repeat profiling and their gene expression profiling using Affymetrix U133 plus 2.0 microarrays deposited in the ArrayExpress public database under accession numbers E-TABM-937 and E-TABM-1088 [18 (link)].

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
After a 6-h treatment with 10 μM resveratrol, cells were collected by trypsinization and total RNA was extracted using the RNeasy kit (Qiagen). Amount and quality of the RNA fractions were evaluated by UV spectrophotometry (260 and 280 nm wavelength) followed by examination of the probes by capillary electrophoresis on Agilent Bioanalyzers. GeneChip expression and IVT (in vitro transcription) labeling kits (Affymetrix, Santa Clara, CA, USA) were used for the synthesis of cDNA and complementary RNA respectively. Biotin-labeled RNA was fragmented and hybridized on human genome U133 plus 2.0 microarrays (Affymetrix) following the manufacturer's instructions. After hybridization (16 h), the microarrays were processed by automated washing on the Affymetrix Fluidics Station 400. Staining of the hybridized probes was performed with fluorescent streptavidin–phycoerythrin conjugates (1 mg/ml; Invitrogen). The scanning of DNA microarrays was carried out on an Affymetrix laser instrument. Microarray quality assessment, condensing of the probe sets, data normalization, and filtering were conducted (Genedata AG, Basel, Switzerland).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
