Problems solved by technology

However, little is known about miRNA expression in AML
[0011] Although considerable research has been done on therapies to treat such diseases, they remain difficult to diagnose and treat effectively, and the observed mortality rates in patients suggest a need for improved diagnosis, treatment and prevention of the diseases

Embodiment I

[0042] Patient and Cell Samples

[0043] Pretreatment bone marrow and blood samples from 182 newly diagnosed AML patients were obtained from the Cell and Tissue Bank of M.D.Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC; (n=172) and Thomas Jefferson University (n=10). Using the microarray platform, the A total of 122 AML samples were analyzed for miRNA expression while using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR; Figure 4 - Table 1 ), 60 untreated AML samples were used to validate the outcome signature.

[0044] A second cohort of 54 AML patients with relapsed (n=34) or refractory (n=20) disease obtained from MDACC was used to determine the difference between newly diagnosed AML patients and relapsed / primary refractory Differences in miRNA expression among AML patients ( Figure 13 - Table S7 ). According to the Declaration of Helsinki, informed consent was obtained from patients to obtain and store cells for future research according to institutional guidelines. Patien...

Embodiment II

[0102] microRNA (miRNA) microarray

[0103] Five micrograms of total RNA were used in quadruplicate on miRNA microarray chips with probes corresponding to 250 human mature and precursor miRNAs (as described in miRBase (microrna.sanger.ac.uk) November 2005). described) hybridization. Total RNA was added separately to a final volume of 12 μl of reaction mixture containing 1 μg of 3′-(N)8-(A)12-biotin-(A)12-biotin-5′ random oligonucleotide primers). The mixture was incubated at 70 °C for 10 min and then cooled on ice. Keep the mixture on ice, add 4 μl 5× first-strand buffer, 2 μl 0.1 M DTT, 1 μl 10 mM dNTP mix, and 1 μl SuperScript II RNaseH-reverse transcriptase (200 units / μl) to a final volume of 20 μl, and dissolve the mixture Incubate for 90 minutes in a 37°C water bath. After incubation for first-strand cDNA synthesis, 3.5 μl of 0.5M NaOH / 50 mM EDTA was added to 20 μl of the first-strand reaction mixture and incubated at 65°C for 15 minutes to denature and synthesize RNA / ...
