Abstract KCl extracts of Melanoma 14, a human melanoma cell line grown in chemically defined serum‐free medium, inhibited leukocyte migration in 19/36 (53%) patients with malignant melanoma. Only 4/23 (17%) controls with non‐melanoma malignancies and 4/28 (14%) normal subjects with no history of cancer were similarly inhibited. Only 2/27 melanoma patients tested against KCl extracts of normal muscle tissue excised from the donor of Melanoma 14 were significantly inhibited. Patients with Stage I (localized) melanoma and patients with Stage III (generalized) melanoma reacted with roughly equal frequency but the number of patients in each group was too small for meaningful statistical analysis. Leukocytes from the donor of Melanoma 14 were tested in a completely autologous system against extracts of Melanoma 14 tissue culture cells and extracts of autologous muscle and were specifically inhibited by the Melanoma 14 tissue culture extract (Migration Index = 0.67) but not by the extract of normal muscle (Migration Index = 0.96). Only 7/32 (22%) melanoma patients were significantly inhibited by an extract of non‐melanoma tumor. These results suggest that melanoma‐associated antigens are present in soluble extracts of this tumor line. Such extracts could provide a continuing source of standard melanoma‐associated antigens for purification and chemical characterization and for diagnostic and prognostic tests in patients with malignant melanoma.

Abstract Age is well-known to be a significant factor in both disease pathology and response to treatment, yet the molecular changes that occur with age in humans remain ill-defined. Here, using transcriptome profiling of healthy human male skin, we demonstrate that there is a period of significantly elevated, transcriptome-wide expression changes occurring predominantly in middle age. Both pre and post this period, the transcriptome appears to undergo much smaller, linear changes with increasing age. Functional analysis of the transient changes in middle age suggest a period of heightened metabolic activity and cellular damage associated with NF-kappa-B and TNF signaling pathways. Through meta-analysis we also show the presence of global, tissue independent linear transcriptome changes with age which appear to be regulated by NF-kappa-B. These results suggest that aging in human skin is associated with a critical mid-life period with widespread transcriptome changes, both preceded and proceeded by a relatively steady rate of linear change in the transcriptome. The data provides insight into molecular changes associated with normal aging and will help to better understand the increasingly important pathological changes associated with aging.

Transcriptome analysis is a powerful tool to characterize changes in leukocyte gene expression patterns and reveal very early molecular abnormalities in tissue. Herein, we report on characterization of the very earliest abnormalities in the transcriptome of leukocytes from young "prepathologic" NOD and NON female mice.

Abstract The human genome is thought to contain 100 000 genes of which a subset of approximately 15 000 to 20 000 genes is expressed in an individual cell. The set of genes expressed and the stoichiometry of the resulting messenger RNAs, together called a transcriptome, determine the phenotype of a cell, tissue, and whole organism. It is generally accepted that a transcriptome is largely determined by an interplay of hereditary and environmental factors. For example, in the CNS, a challenge from the environment, e.g. a learning or a traumatic experience may lead to an alteration of the transcriptome of target neurons. Thus, transcriptome analysis and subsequent transcriptome comparisons may reveal novel insights in the molecular mechanisms underlying complex processes such learning and memory formation.

Abstract Since age related perturbations in gene expression profiles have been described and transcriptomic changes in specific biological pathways have been implicated in the aging process, we performed whole transcriptome sequencing on 4000 HRS participants using RNA obtained from Paxgene tubes collected during the 2016 interview. We will describe design and implementation of innovative quality control procedures to minimize technical variability in transcriptomic measurements and monitor analytical variation in large population studies such as HRS. We will also report the distribution of transcriptomic profiles according to various demographic characteristics (age, sex, racial/ethnic and socioeconomic differences) and describe the prevalence of previously reported aging related transcriptomic signatures in HRS. We will describe the associations between transcriptomic profiles and other measures of biological aging in HRS and report how changes in cell composition can affect transcriptomic profiles observed in population studies such as HRS.
