Colorectal cancer (CRC) arising in Lynch syndrome (LS) comprises tumours with constitutional mutations in DNA mismatch repair genes. There is still a lack of whole-genome and transcriptome studies of LS-CRC to address questions about similarities and differences in mutation and gene expression characteristics between LS-CRC and sporadic CRC, about the molecular heterogeneity of LS-CRC, and about specific mechanisms of LS-CRC genesis linked to dysfunctional mismatch repair in LS colonic mucosa and ...

We present an extensive and detailed study on the gene expression landscape of peripheral blood of healthy individuals based on transcriptome data of 3,388 individuals screened in the population study LIFE between 2011 and 2014. For analysis we applied a neural network technique using self-organizing maps (SOM). Our home-made R-program ‘oposSOM’ enables to reduce the dimension of expression data from tens of thousands of genes to a few thousand ‘meta-genes’ and generates portraits of transcriptional ...

We present a transcriptome map of mature B-cell lymphomas that was obtained by analyzing expression data of 873 biopsy specimens including diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), follicular lymphoma (FL), Burkitt’s lymphoma (BL), mixed FL/DLBCL lymphomas, primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma (PMBL), multiple myeloma (MM), IRF4-rearranged large cell lymphoma, MYC-negative high-grade B-cell lymphomas with Chr. 11q aberration pattern (mnBLL-11q), and Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) to describe their ...

We performed gene-expression analysis of 220 mature aggressive B-cell lymphomas, including a core group of 8 Burkitt's lymphomas that met all World Health Organization (WHO) criteria. A SOM was trained using molecular classification of specimen according to molecular Burkitt's Lymphoma score provided by Hummel et al.
