Comprehensive analysis of normal adjacent to tumor transcriptomes.

Histologically normal tissue adjacent to the tumor (NAT) is commonly used as a control in cancer studies. However, little is known about the transcriptomic profile of NAT, how it is influenced by the tumor, and how the profile compares with non-tumor-bearing tissues. Here, we integrate data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression project and The Cancer Genome Atlas to comprehensively analyze the transcriptomes of healthy, NAT, and tumor tissues in 6506 samples across eight tissues and corresponding tumor types. Our analysis shows that NAT presents a unique intermediate state between healthy and tumor. Differential gene expression and protein-protein interaction analyses reveal altered pathways shared among NATs across tissue types. We characterize a set of 18 genes that are specifically activated in NATs. By applying pathway and tissue composition analyses, we suggest a pan-cancer mechanism of pro-inflammatory signals from the tumor stimulates an inflammatory response in the adjacent endothelium

Comprehensive functional mapping scheme for non-invasive primary sensorimotor cortex mapping.

We introduce a novel multimodal scheme for primary sensorimotor hand area (SM1ha) mapping integrating multiple functional indicators from functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and magnetoencephalography (MEG). Ten right-handed healthy subjects (19-33 years; 5 females, 5 males) and four patients (24-64 years; 2 females, 2 males) suffering from space-occupying brain lesion close to the central sulcus were studied. Functional indicators of the SM1ha were obtained from block-design fMRI motor protocol, and six MEG protocols: somatosensory evoked fields to electrical median-nerve stimulation, mu-rhythm suppression (~10 and ~20 Hz), corticomuscular coherence, and corticokinematic coherence with and without finger contacts. To assess the spatial spread of the functional indicators, their coordinates were subjected to principal component analysis to produce a centered ellipsoid with axis along principal components. Five to seven functional indicators were obtained for each participant. In all participants, the ellipsoid co-localized with the anatomical SM1ha. In healthy subjects, 50-100 % of functional indicators were located within 10 mm from the center of the ellipsoid. In patients, 17-100 % of functional indicators were located within 10 mm from the center of the ellipsoid. In conclusion, the multimodal scheme proposed led to a functional mapping of SM1ha that co-localized with anatomical SM1ha in all participants. The spread of the SM1ha functional indicators in some patients with brain lesions highlights the potential benefit of the proposed multimodal approach to assess the reliability of the non-invasive SM1ha mapping.Journal ArticleSCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
