Analysis of differential gene expression in human melanocytic tumour lesions by custom made oligonucleotide arrays.

Abstract:

:Melanoma is one of the most aggressive types of cancer and resection of the tumour prior to dissemination of tumour cells is still the most effective treatment. Therefore, early diagnosis of melanocytic lesions is important and identification of novel (molecular) markers would be helpful to improve diagnosis. Moreover, better understanding of molecular targets involved in melanocytic tumorigenesis could possibly lead to development of novel interventions. In this study, we used a custom made oligonucleotide array containing 298 genes that were previously found to be differentially expressed in human melanoma cell lines 1F6 (rarely metastasising) and Mel57 (frequently metastasising). We determined differential gene expression in human common nevocellular nevus and melanoma metastasis lesions. By performing nine dye-swap array experiments, using individual as well as pooled melanocytic lesions, a constant differential expression could be detected for 25 genes in eight out of nine or nine out of nine array analyses. For at least nine of these genes, namely THBD, FABP7, H2AFJ, RRAGD, MYADM, HR, CKS2, NCK2 and GDF15, the differential expression found by array analyses could be verified by semiquantitative and/or real-time quantitative RT-PCR. The genes that we identified to be differentially expressed during melanoma progression could be potent targets for diagnostic, prognostic and/or therapeutic interventions.
