    • The rat provides valuable and sometimes unique models of human complex diseases. To fully exploit the rat models in biomedical research, it is important to have access to detailed knowledge of the rat genome organization as well as its relation to the human genome. Rat Chromosome 10 (RNO10) harbors several important cancer-related genes. Deletions in the proximal part of RNO10 were repeatedly found in a rat model for endometrial cancer. To identify functional and positional candidate genes in the affected region, we used radiation hybrid (RH) mapping and single- and dual-color fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) techniques to construct a detailed chromosomal map of the proximal part of RNO10. The regional localization of 14 genes, most of them cancer-related ( Grin2a, Gspt1, Crebbp, Gfer, Tsc2, Tpsb1, Il9r, Il4, Irf1, Csf2, Sparc, Tp53, Thra1, Gh1), and of five microsatellite markers ( D10Mit10, D10Rat42, D10Rat50, D10Rat72, and D10Rat165) was determined on RNO10. For a fifteenth gene, Ppm1b, which had previously been assigned to RNO10, the map position was corrected to RNO6q12-q13.

  • Information needs of women with recently diagnosed ovarian cancer - A longitudinal study
  • 2004
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Oncology Nursing. - : Elsevier. - 1462-3889 .- 1532-2122. ; 8:3, s. 200-207

    • The aim of this study was to investigate the information needs among patients with ovarian cancer and whether these information needs change over time. The information needs were evaluated three times, through structured interviews, and were based on the paired comparison approach developed by Degner and colleagues. A consecutive sample of patients (n=82) with recently diagnosed ovarian cancer was asked to participate.Sixty-four patients (78%) chose to participate. The three different measurements of participants' information needs revealed only small changes in these needs. The three most important information needs, in all measurements, were information about the likelihood of cure, information about the stage and spreading of the disease, and information about different treatment options. Information regarding sexual attractiveness was the lowest ranked item in all measurements. Regarding subgroups (age, education) the only significant difference throughout all measurements was that younger patients rated issues of sexual attractiveness higher than older patients (p=0.005).In this longitudinal study patients with ovarian cancer ranked information about the disease and its treatment (i.e. likelihood of cure, stage of disease, and treatment options) highest, and information about psychosocial aspects and self-care lowest. These findings are in accordance with the results from studies of women diagnosed with other types of cancer, which used the same methodology. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

  • Altered Notch signaling resulting from expression of a WAMTP1-MAML2 gene fusion in mucoepidermoid carcinomas and benign Warthin's tumors.
  • 2004
  • Ingår i: Experimental cell research. - : Elsevier BV. - 0014-4827 .- 1090-2422. ; 292:1, s. 21-8

    • Chromosome translocations in neoplasia commonly result in fusion genes that may encode either novel fusion proteins or normal, but ectopically expressed proteins. Here we report the cloning of a novel fusion gene in a common type of salivary and bronchial gland tumor, mucoepidermoid carcinomas (MEC), as well as in benign Warthin's tumors (WATs). The fusion, which results from a t(11;19)(q21-22;p13) translocation, creates a chimeric gene in which exon 1 of a novel gene of unknown function, designated WAMTP1, is linked to exons 2-5 of the recently identified Mastermind-like Notch coactivator MAML2. In the fusion protein, the N-terminal basic domain of MAML2, which is required for binding to intracellular Notch (Notch ICD), is replaced by an unrelated N-terminal sequence from WAMTP1. Mutation analysis of the N-terminus of WAMTP1-MAML2 identified two regions of importance for nuclear localization (amino acids 11-20) and for colocalization with MAML2 and Notch1 ICD in nuclear granules (amino acids 21-42). Analyses of the Notch target genes HES5 and MASH1 in MEC tumors with and without the WAMTP1-MAML2 fusion revealed upregulation of HES5 and downregulation of MASH1 in fusion positive MECs compared to normal salivary gland tissue and MECs lacking the fusion. These findings suggest that altered Notch signaling plays an important role in the genesis of benign and malignant neoplasms of salivary and bronchial gland origin.

  • Microarray-based diagnosis of breast cancer using decision trees
  • 2003
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • We apply the decision tree algorithm C4.5 to gene expression data in order to induce decision trees for identification of breast cancer patients. Using expression data from 108 known breast cancer-related genes for 75 patients with various diseases of the breast, we are able to induce decision trees with 89% accuracy in separating cancer from non-cancer patients in a cross-validation test. We also show that by inducing a separate decision tree for each cancer-related gene, and using the expression level of the individual gene as the decision variable, it is possible to obtain decision trees which aid the understanding of signaling pathways involved in breast cancer. In addition, we also show that the C4.5 algorithm is able to identify key breast cancer genes when decision trees are induced on expression data sets containing randomly selected genes. This result indicates that it is possible to make biological discoveries when applying decision tree algorithms to large sets of gene expression data in diseases where the genetic basis is not well characterised.

  • Recurrent allelic imbalance at the rat Pten locus in DMBA-induced fibrosarcomas
  • 2002
  • Ingår i: Genes, Chromosomes and Cancer. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 1045-2257 .- 1098-2264. ; 36:1, s. 70-79
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The tumor-suppressor gene PTEN (phosphatase and tensin homolog) is frequently inactivated in different types of human tumors. Less is known about the involvement of the homologous gene Pten in animal model systems of cancer. By sequencing one of the introns of rat Pten, we found an informative intragenic PCR marker suitable for genetic studies. Through use of this marker, the position of Pten in the genetic linkage map was localized to the distal part of rat chromosome 1 (RNO1) by analysis of F2 progeny from an intercross between inbred strains BN and LE. Subsequently, 22 markers from this region (including the intragenic Pten marker) were used to study the occurrence of allelic imbalance in distal RNO1 in fibrosarcomas that had been induced by DMBA in F1(BN×LE) rats. The analysis revealed that allelic imbalance was common in the vicinity of Pten, and there was loss or reduction of one of the Pten alleles in more than 60% of the fibrosarcomas. DNA sequencing was preformed to investigate whether the Pten allele remaining in the tumors was inactivated by mutation. However, no mutations were detected in the genomic sequence of Pten exons 5 to 9 in any of the fibrosarcomas, and normal mRNA transcripts were expressed in all tumors. Thus, based on the targeted selection for loss of Pten observed in some of these tumors and the absence of inactivation of the remaining allele, we suggest that haploinsufficiency of Pten may be an important factor in rat DMBA-induced fibrosarcomas. © 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
