A novel time-course cDNA microarray analysis method identifies genes associated with the development of cisplatin resistance.

Abstract

In recent years, most cDNA microarray studies of chemotherapeutic drug resistance have not considered the temporal pattern of gene expression. The objective of this study was to examine systematically changes in gene expression of NCI-H226 and NCI-H2170 lung cancer cells treated weekly with IC10 doses of cisplatin. NCI-H226 lung cancer cells were treated weekly with an IC10 dose of cisplatin. Candidate genes with a fold change of 2.0 or more were identified from this study. A second experiment was conducted by exposing NCI-H2170 cells to cisplatin doses that were increased in week 4 and decreased in week 5. Overall, 44 genes were differentially expressed in both the NCI-H226 and NCI-H2170 cell lines. In the NCI-H2170 cell line, 24 genes had a twofold gene expression change from weeks 3 to 4. Real-time PCR found a significant correlation of the gene expression changes for seven genes of interest. This small time-ordered series identified novel genes associated with cisplatin resistance. This kind of analysis should be viewed as a first step towards building gene-regulatory networks.

Deep generative neural network for accurate drug response imputation.

Drug response differs substantially in cancer patients due to inter- and intra-tumor heterogeneity. Particularly, transcriptome context, especially tumor microenvironment, has been shown playing a significant role in shaping the actual treatment outcome. In this study, we develop a deep variational autoencoder (VAE) model to compress thousands of genes into latent vectors in a low-dimensional space. We then demonstrate that these encoded vectors could accurately impute drug response, outperform standard signature-gene based approaches, and appropriately control the overfitting problem. We apply rigorous quality assessment and validation, including assessing the impact of cell line lineage, cross-validation, cross-panel evaluation, and application in independent clinical data sets, to warrant the accuracy of the imputed drug response in both cell lines and cancer samples. Specifically, the expression-regulated component (EReX) of the observed drug response achieves high correlation across panels. Using the well-trained models, we impute drug response of The Cancer Genome Atlas data and investigate the features and signatures associated with the imputed drug response, including cell line origins, somatic mutations and tumor mutation burdens, tumor microenvironment, and confounding factors. In summary, our deep learning method and the results are useful for the study of signatures and markers of drug response.

Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) initiation without intubation in two children with mediastinal malignancy.

We report the cases of two children presenting with severe airway compromise secondary to a mediastinal malignancy managed with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation without intubation. Results are presented on the use of ECMO as a primary means of stabilizing a pediatric patient with a critical mediastinal mass, thus providing another management strategy for this difficult situation.

Interferon alpha 2b treatment in an eleven-year-old boy with disseminated lymphangiomatosis.

Disseminated lymphangiomatosis is a rare disease mostly observed in children and young adults. If no surgical removal can be achieved, the prognosis is poor, especially for patients with thoracic localization and pleural effusions. Next to pleural drainage, therapeutic options include radiotherapy, local, and systemic pharmacotherapy. An 11-year-old boy presented with disseminated lymphangiomatosis involving thorax with massive pleural effusions, retroperitoneum, and bones. In immunohistochemical analysis, the tissue biopsy stained positive for vascular endothelial growth factor-receptor 3 (VEGFR-3). The patient has been treated with interferon alpha 2b for 2 years, and achieved a good clinical and radiological response.
