Abstract:
Large numbers of well-characterized clinical samples are fundamental to establish relevant associations between the microbiota and disease. Formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues are routinely used and are widely available clinical materials. Since current approaches to study the microbiota are based on next-generation sequencing (NGS) targeting the bacterial 16S rRNA gene, our aim was to evaluate the feasibility of FFPE gastric tissues for NGS-based microbiota characterization. Analysis of sequencing data revealed the presence of bacteria in the paraffin control. After the subtraction of the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) present in the paraffin control to the FFPE tissue sample dataset, we evaluated the microbiota profiles between paired FFPE and frozen gastric tissues, and between different times of archiving. Compared with frozen gastric tissues, we detected a lower number of OTUs in the microbiota of paired FFPE tissues, regardless of the time of archiving. No major differences in microbial diversity were identified, but taxonomic variation in the relative abundance of phyla and orders was observed between the two preservation methods. This variation was also evident in each case and throughout the times of FFPE archiving. The use of FFPE tissues for NGS-based microbiota characterization should be considered carefully, as biases can be introduced by the embedding process and the time of tissue archiving.

Abstract:
The use of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue overcomes the most prominent issues related to research on relatively rare diseases: limited sample size, availability of control tissue, and time frame. The use of FFPE pancreatic tissue in GEM may be especially challenging due to its very high amounts of ribonucleases compared to other tissues/organs. In choosing pancreatic tissue, we therefore indirectly address the applicability of other FFPE tissues to gene expression microarray (GEM). GEM was performed on archived, routinely fixed, FFPE pancreatic tissue from patients with congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI), insulinoma, and deceased age-appropriate neonates, using whole-genome arrays. Although ribonuclease-rich, we obtained biologically relevant and disease-specific, significant genes; cancer-related genes; genes involved in (a) the regulation of insulin secretion and synthesis, (b) amino acid metabolism, and (c) calcium ion homeostasis. These results should encourage future research and GEM studies on FFPE tissue from the invaluable biobanks available at the departments of pathology worldwide.

Abstract:
Peste des petits ruminants (PPR) which is caused by small ruminant morbillivirus (PPRV) has an important economic impact on small ruminant farming due to high mortality rates, weight loss and restrictions on the export of small ruminants products. Molecular assays are commonly used in the diagnosis of the disease. Extraction of RNA from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues is challenging because of the RNA is often degraded by formalin fixation process. Although commercial kits have been developed for extraction of nucleic acids from FFPE tissues, they are expensive than other extraction kits. In this study, a modified extraction method was evaluated for detection of PPRV from FFPE tissues. A total of 20 FFPE tissue samples including 15 PPRV positive and 5 PPRV negative FFPE tissue samples were used. Two years ago, these selected FFPE tissue samples were analysed by nucleoprotein gene based one step real time RT-PCR method before they were fixed with formalin and embedded in paraffin. FFPE tissue samples were extracted using modified extraction method and were tested by fusion (F) gene based one step RT-PCR. PPRV specific RNA was detected in 12 FFPE tissue samples whereas 3 positive samples were found negative by one-step RT-PCR. Furthermore, 5 negative FFPE tissue samples were also found negative. Three false negative results were from samples with high real-time RT-PCR cycle threshold. Therefore, false negative results could be related with lower viral loads which might be lower than detection limit of the one-step RT-PCR. The results of the study show that modified extraction method could be used for RNA extraction from FFPE tissues which had been stored for 2 years.

Abstract:
The relatively recent developments in mass spectrometry (MS) have provided novel opportunities for this technology to impact modern medicine. One of those opportunities is in biomarker discovery and diagnostics. Key developments in sample preparation have enabled a greater range of clinical samples to be characterized at a deeper level using MS. While most of these developments have focused on blood, tissues have also been an important resource. Fresh tissues, however, are difficult to obtain for research purposes and require significant resources for long-term storage. There are millions of archived formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues within pathology departments worldwide representing every possible tissue type including tumors that are rare or very small. Owing to the chemical technique used to preserve FFPE tissues, they were considered intractable to many newer proteomics techniques and primarily only useful for immunohistochemistry. In the past couple of decades, however, researchers have been able to develop methods to extract proteins from FFPE tissues in a form making them analyzable using state-of-the-art technologies such as MS and protein arrays. This review will discuss the history of these developments and provide examples of how they are currently being used to identify biomarkers and diagnose diseases such as cancer.

Abstract:
Veterinary pathology tissue banks are valuable resources for genetic studies. However, limited data exist as to whether quality DNA can be extracted from these tissues for use in canine genotyping studies. We extracted DNA from 44 formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissue blocks from dogs; 9 of these dogs had DNA available from whole blood samples that had been banked. We genotyped DNA from 30 of 44 tissue blocks and 9 whole blood samples on the Illumina CanineHD BeadChip; DNA quality was insufficient in 14 of 44 samples from tissue blocks. There was significant correlation between the 260/280 ratio and single-nucleotide variation (SNV) call rate ( p = 0.0276; r2 = 0.162); 23 of 30 samples from FFPE were genotyped with > 65% call rates. Median pairwise identical-by-state (IBS) analysis was 0.99 in 8 pairs of dogs with call rates > 65%. Neither age of tissue block nor specific tissue types were associated with significant differences in DNA concentration, 260/280 ratio, or SNV call rate. DNA extracted from tissue blocks can have variable quality, although comparable levels of homozygosity suggest that extracts from FFPE with call rates > 65% might provide similar results to samples from whole blood when analyzed on the Illumina CanineHD BeadChip.

Abstract:
Most human tumor tissues that are obtained for pathology and diagnostic purposes are formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE). To perform quantitative proteomics of FFPE samples, paraffin has to be removed and formalin-induced crosslinks have to be reversed prior to proteolytic digestion. A central component of almost all deparaffinization protocols is xylene, a toxic and highly flammable solvent that has been reported to negatively affect protein extraction and quantitative proteome analysis. Here, we present a ‘green’ xylene-free protocol for accelerated sample preparation of FFPE tissues based on paraffin-removal with hot water. Combined with tissue homogenization using disposable micropestles and a modified protein aggregation capture (PAC) digestion protocol, our workflow enables streamlined and reproducible quantitative proteomic profiling of FFPE tissue. Label-free quantitation of FFPE cores from human ductal breast carcinoma in situ (DCIS) xenografts with a volume of only 0.79 mm3 showed a high correlation between replicates (r2 = 0.992) with a median %CV of 16.9%. Importantly, this small volume is already compatible with tissue micro array (TMA) cores and core needle biopsies, while our results and its ease-of-use indicate that further downsizing is feasible. Finally, our FFPE workflow does not require costly equipment and can be established in every standard clinical laboratory.

Abstract:
AimsAcid-fast bacterium (AFB) identification from formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues is challenging and may not be readily available to the clinical laboratory. A method to detect and identify AFB from FFPE tissues using PCR and pyrosequencing (PCR-Seq) was developed and evaluated.MethodsThe method was validated using spiked cell-clotted paraffin blocks before use with patients’ specimens. DNA was extracted from tissue sections, and a 16S rRNA gene fragment was amplified and a signature sequence was produced on a PyroMark ID system. Sequences were aligned to established databases for AFB identification. Additional tissue sections were stained and examined for AFB.ResultsBoth sensitivity and specificity were 100% on spiked cell-clotted blocks without cross-reactivity with non-AFB. Of 302 FFPE tissues from patients, 116 (38%) were AFB-stain positive; 83 (72%) of these had AFB identified. The 21 AFB identified included Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (14 cases), Mycobacterium leprae (3), Mycobacterium genavense (2), Mycobacterium marinum-ulcerans group (3) and 17 other AFB (61). Thirteen cases were AFB-stain indeterminate and 4 were positive by the PCR-Seq method. Of the AFB stain-negative cases, 167 were negative and 6 were positive by PCR-Seq.ConclusionsThe PCR-Seq method provided specific identification of various AFB species or complexes from FFPE tissues.

Abstract:
Head and neck cancer is the 6th most common malignancy worldwide, with tumours of the tongue being one of the most prevalent sites. Despite advances in surgery and radiotherapy, the five-year survival has not changed during the last decades and remains at approximately 50%. Identification of novel biomarkers for more personalized treatment is important for increasing survival in these patients. One of the most commonly used methods in the search for new biomarkers is microarray analysis. A substantial limitation with this technique is the requirement for fresh frozen samples from which high quality RNA can be extracted. This becomes particularly problematic when attempting to discover differences associated with individual sub-types or rare cancers. Recent developments, including the DASL microarray platform, have provided the possibility of analysing RNA of poorer quality from formalin fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) samples. FFPE is the standard way of preserving tissue from patients and millions of samples are stored around the world. In this thesis we have evaluated the use of FFPE samples and global gene expression profiling for increasing basic knowledge in a subgroup of oral cancer patients with tumours of the tongue. As confirmation of microarray results using qPCR is of outmost importance for conclusive data evaluation, we first aimed at finding a housekeeping gene stably expressed across malignant and non-malignant FFPE oral tissue. TUBA6, which belongs to the tubulin family was detected as being the most stable out of eight possible genes and was thus used for qPCR normalization throughout the following studies. We have performed three separate microarray experiments. Initially only a focused DASL array covering 502 cancer related genes was available and we used it to analyze a smaller cohort of patients and controls (n=36). A similar cohort (n=29) was also analyzed for expression of 836 micoRNAs. In 2009 a whole genome DASL array was launched, covering over 20,000 genes, and all tongue tumour samples available between 1997 and 2010 (n=87) were analysed using this array. Similar to other research groups we observed very high replicate reproducibility using both DASL arrays. When using the microRNA array and the whole genome DASL array an effect of sample quality on the detected expression level of individual genes was noticed. While the expression of some genes severely decreased with a decrease in sample quality others were not changed. This will impair normalization, leading to a residual non-biological variation within the data. Based on our findings we have presented some recommendations for minimizing the effect of sample quality and maximizing the level of biologically relevant information obtained from these experiments, e.g. ensuring that samples in groups to be compared are of the same quality range. For the microRNA data we also introduced an additional normalization step to the standard normalizations. We could show that lists of differentially expressed genes generated when taking these precautions were enriched for genes involved in cancer related processes and contained for tongue carcinoma previously identified changes. A number of differentially expressed genes, novel for tongue carcinoma, were also confirmed in high quality fresh frozen samples, including BCL2A1 (apoptosis), CXCL10 (immune response), SLC2A6 (energy transport) and miR-424 (angiogenesis). In conclusion microarrays can be used to analyze FFPE samples but should be performed with care. Standard normalization methods will not remove the variation introduced by samples being of different quality, leading to spurious results. Taking a few precautions, however, led to the identification of differentially expressed genes relevant in tumour development and maintenance. The recommendations we make can facilitate design of future studies using FFPE samples. The genes we identified as being differentially expressed in tumour tissue now need to be further evaluated for their potential as biomarkers in tongue carcinoma.

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD
Tumour-specific protein markers are usually present at elevated concentrations in patient biopsy tissue; therefore tumour tissue is an ideal biological material for studying cancer proteomics and biomarker discovery studies. To understand and elucidate cancer pathogenesis and its mechanisms at the molecular level, the collection and characterisation of a large number of individual patient tissue cohorts are required. Since most pathology institutes routinely preserve biopsy tissues by standardised methods of formalin fixation and paraffin embedment, these archived, FFPE tissues are important collections of pathology material, often accompanied by important metadata, such as patient medical history and treatments. FFPE tissue blocks are conveniently stored under ambient conditions for decades, while retaining cellular morphology due to the modifications induced by formalin.

The identification of proteins involved in tumour progression or which permit enhanced or novel therapeutic targeting is essential for cancer research. Direct MALDI analysis of tissue sections is rapidly demonstrating its potential for protein imaging and profiling in the investigation of a range of disease states including cancer. MALDI-mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI) has been used here for direct visualisation and in situ characterisation of proteins in breast tumour tissue section samples. Frozen MCF7 breast tumour xenograft and human formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded breast cancer tissue sections were used. An improved protocol for on-tissue trypsin digestion is described incorporating the use of a detergent, which increases the yield of tryptic peptides for both fresh frozen and formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumour tissue sections. A novel approach combining MALDI-MSI and ion mobility separation MALDI-tandem mass spectrometry imaging for improving the detection of low-abundance proteins that are difficult to detect by direct MALDI-MSI analysis is described. In situ protein identification was carried out directly from the tissue section by MALDI-MSI. Numerous protein signals were detected and some proteins including histone H3, H4 and Grp75 that were abundant in the tumour region were identified

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), caused by feline coronavirus (FCoV), is a lethal disease in cats. The clinical signs are non-specific and antemortem diagnosis remains challenging and frustrating. Appling histopathology combined with immunohistochemical (IHC) staining is considered as the gold standard for FIP diagnosis. However, the sensitivity of the IHC method depends much on the numbers of intralesional antigen-bearing cells. Due to the limitations of small sampling sizes as well as the equivocal IHC staining pattern in some specimens, formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE) biopsies frequently submitted for histopathological examination for FIP are the most challenging specimens for pathologists. It has been demonstrated that the consensus PCR targeting 3’UTR alone is non-specific for diagnosis of FIP in fresh tissues. Moreover, two recently described mutations, the substitution of methionine (M) to leucine (L) amino acid mutation at position 1058 (M1058L) and the substitution of serine (S) to alanine (A) amino acid mutation at position 1060 (S1060A) in spike (S) gene, which together can distinguish feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV) from feline enteric coronavirus (FECV) in >95% of serotype I FCoV-infected cases in freshly-collected specimens, have suggested a potential diagnostic value. The aim of this study was to compare the uses of a consensus nested RT-PCR (nRT-PCR) targeting 3’UTR and a nRT-PCR targeting the two mutations in S gene in aiding the diagnosis of FIP in FFPE tissues. After evaluation of the RNA quality in FFPE tissues by a RT-PCR targeting the housekeeping gene of feline GAPDH, a total of 38 histopathologically and immunohistochemically confirmed FIP cases and 22 non-FIP cases were used as the source of RNA and examined nRT-PCRs. We have successfully extracted RNA and amplified FCoV genes in 31/38 (82%) FIP cases using consensus nRT-PCR, whereas 17/38 (42%) FIP cases were detected using the S-specific nRT-PCR. Following subsequent sequencing, 16 out of 17 serotype 1 cases had one of the two mutations (M1058L and S1060A) in the S gene. None of the FFPF tissues from these non-FIP cats were positive by both methods. We have demonstrated that in combined with histopathology and IHC staining, both consensus nRT-PCR and S-specific nRT-PCR were capable of detecting viral RNA from FFPE samples where IHC signals were equivocal and possibly misinterpreted as negativity. Both methods serve as a useful tool in supporting FIP diagnosis and for the retrospective study of FIP in archival FFPE tissues.

Abstract:
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma. It is a molecular and prognostic heterogeneous disease. Three main genetic subtypes are called germinal center-like DLBCL (GC-like DLBCL), non-germinal center-like DLBCL (nonGC-like DLBCL) and primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma (PMBL). These subtypes can be reliably distinguished only with usage of gene expression profiling (GEP). The GEP method can be applied only when fresh frozen tissue is available. The method is technically difficult and expensive. Thus, it is not used routinely. Since the DLBCL subtypes differ in prognosis, it is extremely important to be able to distinguish them. The presented thesis is focused on distinguishing of PMBL diagnosis in the group of DLBCL. Easily stored formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue (FFPE) and gene expression analysis using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RTqPCR) are used. In the first step, PMBL and DLBCL cases were distinguished with an internationally accepted clinical-pathological method. The agreement between clinical-pathological diagnosis and GEP is only 76%. In the presented text a genetic algorithm for PMBL/DLBCL distinguishing is suggested. It uses three carefully chosen genes and their expression is measured with RTqPCR. Both, the...

Abstract:
Methods: Matched samples of ascites and tumor tissue were taken from patients undergoing surgery for epithelial ovarian cancer. Tumor samples were formalin fixed and paraffin embedded (FFPE); ascites samples were used to generate primary cultures (PC). HR status was determined in PCs as previously described.[1] IC50 for the PARP inhibitor Rucaparib was estimated using SRB assays. DNA was extracted from the FFPE tissue. The following techniques were evaluated in PCs or paired FFPE samples: DR-GFP reporter assay, PARP activity assay, BRCA1 expression on immunohistochemistry, BRCA1 methylation status and BRCA1/2 mutation analysis. A next generation sequencing based assay was used to detect mutations and other genomic alterations in a large panel of cancer-associated genes, including BRCA1/2. Results: Paired samples were collected from 64 patients and characterized for HR function. 47/64 (76%) were high grade serous. 44% (28/64)) were HR defective (HRD) by Rad51 assay and correlated with Rucaparib sensitivity (PPV-92%, NPV-100%). Molecular analysis revealed that all mutations and other genomic alterations detected in ascites derived PCs were also found in matched FFPE tumor tissues. All tumors with serous histology contained p53 mutations, whilst the remaining tumors without p53 mutations were non-serous in histology. DR-GFP assay was unreliable in PC due to poor transfection. In a subset of 50 cancers there was reduced BRCA1 expression in the HRD vs. HRC tumours (34.8% vs. 22.7%, ns) whilst in a further subset of 30 cases there was no difference in endogenous or stimulated PARP activity between HRD and HRC tumours. Deleterious BRCA2 mutations were identified in 7 tumors, 6 of which were HRD. Only 1 deleterious BRCA1 mutation was detected but methylation of BRCA1 was identified in 13 of 64 (20%) tumors, 7 of which were HRD. Mutation of BRCA2 was mutually exclusive to methylation of BRCA1. HRD vs. HRC tumours showed BRCA1 methylation (25% vs. 17%) and BRCA1/2 mutation (21% vs. 0.3%). 14/28 (50%) HR defective tumors do not have BRCA1/2 mutations or BRCA1 methylation, suggesting other mechanisms can also result in a HR defective phenotype. 28/64 (43%) of samples demonstrated the HR defective phenotype. In all cases HR status correlated with sensitivity to Rucaparib. Conclusion: As expected, deleterious BRCA2 mutations conferred a HRD phenotype in cells but methylation of BRCA1 was not universally associated with HRD. This may be as a result of only partial silencing of the gene by methylation and further work is required to identify thresholds of methylation which may predict HR status. The use of BRCA1/2 mutation testing alone is unlikely to identify the majority of HR defective ovarian tumors. Assessment of functional status of HRD is the preferred option and further technologies should be developed to simplify the Rad51 assay.
