Abstract

The present invention is based on the elucidation of the global changes in gene expression in prostate tissue isolated from patients exhibiting different clinical states of prostate hyperplasia as compared to normal prostate tissue as well as the identification of individual genes that are differentially expressed in diseased prostate tissue.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) is the most common benign tumor in men aged >60 years. It is estimated that one in four men living to the age of 80 will require treatment for this disease. BPH is usually noted clinically after the age of 50, the incidence increasing with age, but as many as two thirds of men between the ages of 40 and 49 demonstrate histological evidence of the disease.

[0003] The anatomic location of the prostate at the bladder neck enveloping the urethra plays an important role in the pathology of BPH, including bladder outlet obstruction. Two prostate components are thought to play a role in bladder outlet obstruction. The first is the relative increased prostate tissue mass. The second component is the prostatic smooth muscle tone.

[0004] The causative factors of BPH in man have been intensively studied. See Ziada et al., Urology, 53: 1-6, 1999. In general, the two most important factors appear to be aging and the presence of functional testes. Although these factors appear to be key to the development of BPH, both appear to be nonspecific.

[0005] Little is known about the molecular changes in prostate cells associated with the development and progression of BPH. It has been demonstrated that the expression levels of a number of individual genes are changed compared to normal prostate cells. These changes in gene expression include decreased expression of Wilm's tumor gene (WT-1) and increased expression of insulin growth factor II (IGF-II) (Dong et al., J. Clin. Endocrin. Metab., 82(7): 2198-220).

[0006] While the changes in the expression levels of a number of individual genes have been identified, the investigation of the global changes in gene expression has not been reported. Accordingly, there exists a need for the investigation of the changes in global gene expression levels as well as the need for the identification of new molecular markers associated with the development and progression of BPH. Furthermore, if intervention is expected to be successful in halting or slowing down BPH, means of accurately assessing the early manifestations of BPH need to be established. One way to accurately assess the early manifestations of BPH is to identify markers which are uniquely associated with disease progression. Likewise, the development of therapeutics to prevent or stop the progression of BPH relies on the identification of genes responsible for BPH growth and function.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0007] The present invention is based on the elucidation of the global changes in gene expression in BPH tissue isolated from patients exhibiting different clinical states of prostate hyperplasia as compared to normal prostate tissue as well as the identification of individual genes that are differentially expressed in BPH tissue.

[0008] The invention is also based on the discovery of a means of effectively selecting disease-linked drug targets from gene expression results. The invention includes methods of classifying genes whose expression levels are changed in diseased tissues, during disease induction or during disease progression into specific groups. By using this method it is possible to classify genes whose expression are regulated by the same mechanism into the same group, and it is possible to identify representative marker genes by selecting typical genes from each cluster.

[0009] The invention includes methods of screening for or identifying an agent that modulates the onset or progression of BPH, comprising: preparing a first gene expression profile of BPH cells; exposing the cells to the agent; preparing a second gene expression profile of the agent exposed cells; and comparing the first and second gene expression profiles. In a preferred embodiment of these methods, the gene expression profile comprises the expression levels of one or more or preferably two or more genes in Tables 1-6. In another preferred embodiment of these methods, the cell is a prostate cell from a BPH patient, a cell line in Table 7, or a derivative thereof.

[0010] The invention also includes methods of monitoring a treatment of a patient with BPH, comprising administering a pharmaceutical composition to the patient; preparing a gene expression profile from a prostate cell or tissue sample from the patient; and comparing the patient gene expression profile to a gene expression profile from a normal prostate cell population, a BPH tissue or BPH cells without treatment with the pharmaceutical composition. In preferred embodiments of these methods, the gene expression profile comprises the expression levels of one or more or, preferably two or more genes in Tables 1-6.

[0011] The invention also includes methods of diagnosing benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in a subject comprising the step of detecting the level of expression in a tissue or cell sample from the subject of two or more genes from Tables 1-6 (preferably Tables 3-5, and more preferably Table 5); wherein differential expression of the genes is indicative of BPH progression.

[0012] The invention further includes methods of detecting the onset or progression of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) in a patient comprising the step of detecting the level of expression in a tissue or cell sample of two or more genes from Tables 1-6 (preferably Tables 3-5, and more preferably Table 5); wherein differential expression of the genes is indicative of BPH progression.

[0013] The invention also includes methods of differentiating benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) from prostate cancer in a patient comprising the step of detecting the level of expression in a tissue or cell sample of two or more genes from Tables 1-6 (preferably Tables 3-5, and more preferably Table 5); wherein differential expression of the genes is indicative of BPH rather than prostate cancer.

[0014] The invention also includes methods of selecting or identifying cells that can be used for drug screening.

[0015] All of these methods may include the step of detecting the expression levels of at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 or more genes in any of Tables 1-6, or preferably Table 5. In a preferred embodiment, expression of all of the genes or nearly all of the genes in Tables 1-6, or preferably Table 5, may be detected.

[0016] The invention further includes sets of at least two or more probes, wherein each of the probes comprises a sequence that specifically hybridizes to a gene in Tables 1-6 as well as solid supports comprising at least two or more of the probes.

[0017] The invention also includes computer systems comprising or linked to a database containing information identifying the expression level in BPH tissue or cells of a set of genes comprising at least two genes in Tables 1-6, preferably from Table 5; and a user interface to view the information. The database may further comprise sequence information for the genes as well as information identifying the expression level for the set of genes in normal prostate tissue or cells, and prostate cancer tissue. The database may further contain or be linked to descriptive information from an external database, which information correlates said genes to records in the external database.

[0018] The invention further includes methods of using the disclosed computer systems to present information identifying the expression level in a tissue or cell of a set of genes comprising at least one of the genes in Tables 1-6, preferably Table 5, comprising comparing the expression level of at least one gene in Tables 1-6, preferably Table 5, in the tissue or cell to the level of expression of the gene in the database.

[0019] Lastly, the invention includes kits comprising probes or solid supports of the invention. In some embodiments, the kits also contain written materials or software concerning gene expression information for the genes of the invention, preferably in electronic format.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] Many biological functions are accomplished by altering the expression of various genes through transcriptional (e.g. through control of initiation, provision of RNA precursors, RNA processing, etc.) and/or translational control. For example, fundamental biological processes such as cell cycle, cell differentiation and cell death, are often characterized by the variations in the expression levels of groups of genes.

[0028] Changes in gene expression also are associated with pathogenesis. For example, the lack of sufficient expression of functional tumor suppressor genes and/or the over expression of oncogene/protooncogenes could lead to tumorgenesis or hyperplastic growth of cells (Marshall, Cell, 64: 313-326 (1991); Weinberg, Science, 254:1138-1146 (1991)). Thus, changes in the expression levels of particular genes (e.g. oncogenes or tumor suppressors) serve as signposts for the presence and progression of various diseases.

[0029] Monitoring changes in gene expression may also provide certain advantages during drug screening development. Often drugs are screened for the ability to interact with a major target without regard to other effects the drugs have on cells. Often such other effects cause toxicity in the whole animal, which prevent the development and use of the potential drug.

[0030] The present inventors have examined tissue from normal prostate, BPH and BPH prostate tissue immediately adjacent to malignant prostate tissue to identify the global changes in gene expression in BPH. These changes in gene expression, also referred to as expression profiles, provide useful markers for diagnostic uses as well as markers that can be used to monitor disease states, disease progression, toxicity, drug efficacy and drug metabolism.

[0031] Assay Formats

[0032] The genes identified as being differentially expressed in BPH tissue or BPH cells (Tables 1-6) may be used in a variety of nucleic acid detection assays to detect or quantititate the expression level of a gene or multiple genes in a given sample. For example, traditional Northern blotting, nuclease protection, RT-PCR and differential display methods may be used for detecting gene expression levels. Those methods are useful for some embodiments of the invention, particularly when smaller numbers of genes are assayed. For instance, when fewer than 50 genes are assayed, RT-PCR techniques can be used to prepare high-throughput assays. However, methods and assays of the invention are most efficiently designed with hybridization-based methods for detecting the expression of a large number of genes.

[0033] Any hybridization assay format may be used, including solution-based and solid support-based assay formats. Solid supports containing oligonucleotide probes for differentially expressed genes of the invention can be filters, polyvinyl chloride dishes, silicon or glass based beads or chips, etc. Such supports and hybridization methods are widely available, for example, those disclosed by Beattie (WO 95/11755). Any solid surface to which oligonucleotides can be bound, either directly or indirectly, either covalently or non-covalently, can be used.

[0034] A preferred solid support is a high density array or DNA chip. These contain a particular oligonucleotide probe in a predetermined location on the array. Each predetermined location may contain more than one molecule of the probe, but each molecule within the predetermined location has an identical sequence. Such predetermined locations are termed features. There may be, for example, from 2, 10, 100, 1000 to 10,000, 100,000 or 400,000 of such features on a single solid support. The solid support, or the area within which the probes are attached may be on the order of about a square centimeter.

[0035] Oligonucleotide probe arrays for expression monitoring can be made and used according to any technique known in the art (see for example, Lockhart et al., Nat. Biotechnol. (1996) 14, 1675-1680; McGall et al., Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA (1996) 93, 13555-13460). Such probe arrays may contain at least two or more oligonucleotides that are complementary to or hybridize to two or more of the genes described in Tables 1-6. For instance, such arrays may contain oligonucleotides that are complementary or hybridize to at least about 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 20, 30, 50, 70 or more of the genes described herein.

[0036] The genes which are assayed according to the present invention are typically in the form of mRNA or reverse transcribed mRNA. The genes may be cloned or not. The genes may be amplified or not. The cloning itself does not appear to bias the representation of genes within a population. However, it may be preferable to use polyA+ RNA as a source, as it can be used with less processing steps.

[0037] The sequences and related information of the genes described herein are available in the public databases. Tables 1-6 provide the Accession numbers and name for each of the sequences. Each Accession Number corresponds to a sequence in the attached sequence listing. The sequences and related information of the genes listed in the Tables according to their GenBank identifiers are expressly incorporated herein as of the filing date of this application, as are sequences in the databases related to those herein described, such as fragments, variant sequences, etc. (see: www.ncbi.nlm.gov).

[0038] Probes based on the sequences of the genes described above may be prepared by any commonly available method. Oligonucleotide probes for interrogating the tissue or cell sample are preferably of sufficient length to specifically hybridize only to appropriate, complementary genes or transcripts. Typically the oligonucleotide probes will be at least 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 or 25 nucleotides in length. In some cases longer probes of at least 30, 40, or 50 nucleotides will be desirable.

[0039] As used herein, oligonueleotide sequences that are complementary to one or more of the genes described in Tables 1-6 refer to oligonucleotides that are capable of hybridizing under stringent conditions to at least part of the nucleotide sequence of said genes. Such hybridizable oligonucleotides will typically exhibit at least about 75% sequence identity at the nucleotide level to said genes, preferably about 80% or 85% sequence identity or more preferably about 90% or 95% or more sequence identity to said genes.

[0040] “Bind(s) substantially” refers to complementary hybridization between a probe nucleic acid and a target nucleic acid and embraces minor mismatches that can be accommodated by reducing the stringency of the hybridization media to achieve the desired detection of the target polynucleotide sequence.

[0041] The terms “background” or “background signal intensity” refer to hybridization signals resulting from non-specific binding, or other interactions, between the labeled target nucleic acids and components of the oligonucleotide array (e.g., the oligonucleotide probes, control probes, the array substrate, etc.). Background signals may also be produced by intrinsic fluorescence of the array components themselves. A single background signal can be calculated for the entire array, or a different background signal may be calculated for each target nucleic acid. In a preferred embodiment, background is calculated as the average hybridization signal intensity for the lowest 5% to 10% of the probes in the array, or, where a different background signal is calculated for each target gene, for the lowest 5% to 10% of the probes for each gene. Of course, one of skill in the art will appreciate that where the probes to a particular gene hybridize well and thus appear to be specifically binding to a target sequence, they should not be used in a background signal calculation. Alternatively, background may be calculated as the average hybridization signal intensity produced by hybridization to probes that are not complementary to any sequence found in the sample (e.g. probes directed to nucleic acids of the opposite sense or to genes not found in the sample such as bacterial genes where the sample is mammalian nucleic acids). Background can also be calculated as the average signal intensity produced by regions of the array that lack probes.

[0042] The phrase “hybridizing specifically to” refers to the binding, duplexing, or hybridizing of a molecule substantially to or only to a particular nucleotide sequence or sequences under stringent conditions when that sequence is present in a complex mixture (e.g., total cellular DNA or RNA).

[0043] Assays and methods of the invention may utilize available formats to simultaneously screen at least about 100, preferably about 1000, more preferably about 10,000 and most preferably about 1,000,000 different nucleic acid hybridizations.

[0044] As used herein a “probe” is defined as a nucleic acid molecule, capable of binding to a target nucleic acid of complementary sequence through one or more types of chemical bonds, usually through complementary base pairing, usually through hydrogen bond formation. As used herein, a probe may include natural (i.e., A, G, U, C, or T) or modified bases (7-deazaguanosine, inosine, etc.). In addition, the bases in probes may be joined by a linkage other than a phosphodiester bond, so long as it does not interfere with hybridization. Thus, probes may be peptide nucleic acids in which the constituent bases are joined by peptide bonds rather than phosphodiester linkages.

[0045] The term “stringent conditions” refers to conditions under which a probe will hybridize to its target subsequence, but with only insubstantial hybridization to other sequences or to other sequences such that the difference may be identified. Stringent conditions are sequence-dependent and will be different in different circumstances. Longer sequences hybridize specifically at higher temperatures. Generally, stringent conditions are selected to be about 5° C. lower than the thermal melting point (Tm) for the specific sequence at a defined ionic strength and pH.

[0046] Typically, stringent conditions will be those in which the salt concentration is at least about 0.01 to 1.0 M Na ion concentration (or other salts) at pH 7.0 to 8.3 and the temperature is at least about 30° C. for short probes (e.g., 10 to 50 nucleotide). Stringent conditions may also be achieved with the addition of destabilizing agents such as formamide.

[0047] The “percentage of sequence identity” or “sequence identity” is determined by comparing two optimally aligned sequences or subsequences over a comparison window or span, wherein the portion of the polynucleotide sequence in the comparison window may optionally comprise additions or deletions (i.e., gaps) as compared to the reference sequence (which does not comprise additions or deletions) for optimal alignment of the two sequences.

[0048] The percentage is calculated by determining the number of positions at which the identical submit (e.g. nucleic acid base or amino acid residue) occurs in both sequences to yield the number of matched positions, dividing the number of matched positions by the total number of positions in the window of comparison and multiplying the result by 100 to yield the percentage of sequence identity. Percentage sequence identity when calculated using the programs GAP or BESTFIT (see below) is calculated using default gap weights.

[0049] Probe Design

[0050] One of skill in the art will appreciate that an enormous number of array designs are suitable for the practice of this invention. The high density array will typically include a number of probes that specifically hybridize to the sequences of interest. See WO 99/32660 for methods of producing probes for a given gene or genes. In addition, in a preferred embodiment, the array will include one or more control probes.

[0051] High density array chips of the invention include “test probes.” Test probes could be oligonucleotides that range from about 5 to about 500 or 5 to about 45 nucleotides, more preferably from about 10 to about 40 nucleotides and most preferably from about 15 to about 40 nucleotides in length. In other particularly preferred embodiments the probes are 20 or 25 nucleotides in length. In another preferred embodiment, test probes are double or single strand DNA sequences. DNA sequences are isolated or cloned from natural sources or amplified from natural sources using native nucleic acid as templates. These probes have sequences complementary to particular subsequences of the genes whose expression they are designed to detect. Thus, the test probes are capable of specifically hybridizing to the target nucleic acid they are to detect (the genes of Tables 1-6).

[0052] The term “perfect match probe” refers to a probe that has a sequence that is perfectly complementary to a particular target sequence. The probe is typically perfectly complementary to a portion (subsequence) of the target sequence. The perfect match (PM) probe can be a “test probe”, a “normalization control” probe, an expression level control probe and the like. A perfect match control or perfect match probe is, however, distinguished from a “mismatch control” or “mismatch probe.”

[0053] In addition to test probes that bind the target nucleic acid(s) of interest, the high density array can contain a number of control probes. The control probes fall into three categories referred to herein as 1) normalization controls; 2) expression level controls; and 3) mismatch controls.

[0054] Normalization controls are oligonucleotide or other nucleic acid probes that are complementary to labeled reference oligonucleotides or other nucleic acid sequences that are added to the nucleic acid sample to be screened. The signals obtained from the normalization controls after hybridization provide a control for variations in hybridization conditions, label intensity, “reading” efficiency and other factors that may cause the signal of a perfect hybridization to vary between arrays. In a preferred embodiment, signals (e.g., fluorescence intensity) read from all other probes in the array are divided by the signal (e.g., fluorescence intensity) from the control probes thereby normalizing the measurements.

[0055] Virtually any probe may serve as a normalization control. However, it is recognized that hybridization efficiency varies with base composition and probe length. Preferred normalization probes are selected to reflect the average length of the other probes present in the array, however, they can be selected to cover a range of lengths. The normalization control(s) can also be selected to reflect the (average) base composition of the other probes in the array, however in a preferred embodiment, only one or a few probes are used and they are selected such that they hybridize well (i.e., no secondary structure) and do not match any target-specific probes.

[0056] Expression level controls are probes that hybridize specifically with constitutively expressed genes in the biological sample. Virtually any constitutively expressed gene provides a suitable target for expression level controls. Typically expression level control probes have sequences complementary to subsequences of constitutively expressed “housekeeping genes” including, but not limited to an actin gene, the transferrin receptor gene, the GAPDH gene, and the like.

[0057] Mismatch controls or mismatch probes may also be provided for the probes to the target genes, for expression level controls or for normalization controls. Mismatch controls are oligonucleotide probes or other nucleic acid probes identical to their corresponding test or control probes except for the presence of one or more mismatched bases. A mismatched base is a base selected so that it is not complementary to the corresponding base in the target sequence to which the probe would otherwise specifically hybridize. One or more mismatches are selected such that under appropriate hybridization conditions (e.g., stringent conditions) the test or control probe would be expected to hybridize with its target sequence, but the mismatch probe would not hybridize (or would hybridize to a significantly lesser extent). Preferred mismatch probes contain a central mismatch. Thus, for example, where a probe is a 20 mer, a corresponding mismatch probe will have the identical sequence except for a single base mismatch (e.g., substituting a G, a C or a T for an A) at any of positions 6 through 14 (the central mismatch).

[0058] Mismatch probes thus provide a control for non-specific binding or cross hybridization to a nucleic acid in the sample other than the target to which the probe is directed. Mismatch probes also indicate whether a hybridization is specific or not. For example, if the target is present the perfect match probes should be consistently brighter than the mismatch probes. In addition, if all central mismatches are present, the mismatch probes can be used to detect a mutation. The difference in intensity between the perfect match and the mismatch probe provides a good measure of the concentration of the hybridized material.

[0059] Nucleic Acid Samples

[0060] As is apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, nucleic acid samples used in the methods and assays of the invention may be prepared by any available method or process. Methods of isolating total mRNA are well known to those of skill in the art. For example, methods of isolation and purification of nucleic acids are described in detail in Chapter 3 of Laboratory Techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology: Hybridization With Nucleic Acid Probes, Part I Theory and Nucleic Acid Preparation, P. Tijssen, Ed., Elsevier, N.Y. (1993). Such samples include RNA samples, but also include cDNA synthesized from a mRNA sample isolated from a cell or tissue of interest. Such samples also include DNA amplified from the cDNA, and RNA transcribed from the amplified DNA. One of skill in the art would appreciate that it is desirable to inhibit or destroy RNase present in homogenates before homogenates can be used.

[0061] Biological samples may be of any biological tissue or fluid or cells from any organism as well as cells raised in vitro, such as cell lines and tissue culture cells. Biological samples may also include sections of tissues, such as frozen sections or formalin fixed sections taken for histological purposes. Frequently, the sample will be a “clinical sample” which is a sample derived from a patient. Typical clinical samples include, but are not limited to prostate tissue, urine, sputum, blood, blood-cells (e.g., white cells or peripheral blood leukocytes (PBL), tissue or fine needle biopsy samples, peritoneal fluid, and pleural fluid, or cells therefrom.

[0062] Forming High Density Arrays.

[0063] Methods of forming high density arrays of oligonucleotides with a minimal number of synthetic steps are known. The oligonucleotide analogue array can be synthesized on a solid substrate by a variety of methods, including, but not limited to, light-directed chemical coupling, and mechanically directed coupling. See Pirrung et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,143,854.

[0064] In brief, the light-directed combinatorial synthesis of oligonucleotide arrays on a glass surface proceeds using automated phosphoramidite chemistry and chip masking techniques. In one specific implementation, a glass surface is derivatized with a silane reagent containing a functional group, e.g., a hydroxyl or amine group blocked by a photolabile protecting group. Photolysis through a photolithogaphic mask is used selectively to expose functional groups which are then ready to react with incoming 5′ photoprotected nucleoside phosphoramidites. The phosphoramidites react only with those sites which are illuminated (and thus exposed by removal of the photolabile blocking group). Thus, the phosphoramidites only add to those areas selectively exposed from the preceding step. These steps are repeated until the desired array of sequences have been synthesized on the solid surface. Combinatorial synthesis of different oligonucleotide analogues at different locations on the array is determined by the pattern of illumination during synthesis and the order of addition of coupling reagents.

[0065] In addition to the foregoing, additional methods which can be used to generate an array of oligonucleotides on a single substrate are described in WO 93/09668. High density nucleic acid arrays can also be fabricated by depositing premade or natural nucleic acids in predetermined positions. Synthesized or natural nucleic acids are deposited on specific locations of a substrate by light directed targeting and oligonucleotide directed targeting. Another embodiment uses a dispenser that moves from region to region to deposit nucleic acids in specific spots.

[0066] Hybridization

[0067] Nucleic acid hybridization simply involves contacting a probe and target nucleic acid under conditions where the probe and its complementary target can form stable hybrid duplexes through complementary base pairing. See WO 99/32660. The nucleic acids that do not form hybrid duplexes are then washed away leaving the hybridized nucleic acids to be detected, typically through detection of an attached detectable label. It is generally recognized that nucleic acids are denatured by increasing the temperature or decreasing the salt concentration of the buffer containing the nucleic acids. Under low stringency conditions (e.g., low temperature and/or high salt) hybrid duplexes (e.g., DNA:DNA, RNA:RNA, or RNA:DNA) will form even where the annealed sequences are not perfectly complementary.

[0068] Thus specificity of hybridization is reduced at lower stringency. Conversely, at higher stringency (e.g., higher temperature or lower salt) successful hybridization tolerates fewer mismatches. One of skill in the art will appreciate that hybridization conditions may be selected to provide any degree of stringency. In a preferred embodiment, hybridization is performed at low stringency in this case in 6× SSPE-T at 37° C. (0.005% Triton X-100) to ensure hybridization and then subsequent washes are performed at higher stringency (e.g., I× SSPE-T at 37° C.) to eliminate mismatched hybrid duplexes. Successive washes may be performed at increasingly higher stringency (e.g., down to as low as 0.25× SSPET at 37° C. to 50° C.) until a desired level of hybridization specificity is obtained. Stringency can also be increased by addition of agents such as formamide. Hybridization specificity may be evaluated by comparison of hybridization to the test probes with hybridization to the various controls that can be present (e.g., expression level control, normalization control, mismatch controls, etc.).

[0069] In general, there is a tradeoff between hybridization specificity (stringency) and signal intensity. Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the wash is performed at the highest stringency that produces consistent results and that provides a signal intensity greater than approximately 10% of the background intensity. Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the hybridized array may be washed at successively higher stringency solutions and read between each wash. Analysis of the data sets thus produced will reveal a wash stringency above which the hybridization pattern is not appreciably altered and which provides adequate signal for the particular oligonucleotide probes of interest.

[0070] Signal Detection

[0071] The hybridized nucleic acids are typically detected by detecting one or more labels attached to the sample nucleic acids. The labels may be incorporated by any of a number of means well known to those of skill in the art. See WO 99/32660.

[0072] Databases

[0073] The present invention includes relational databases containing sequence information, for instance for the genes of Tables 1-6, as well as gene expression information in various prostate tissue samples. Databases may also contain information associated with a given sequence or tissue sample such as descriptive information about the gene associated with the sequence information, metabolic pathway information for the gene or descriptive information concerning the clinical status of the tissue sample, or the patient from which the sample was derived. Such information for the patient may include, but is not limited to sex, age, disease status, general health information, surgical or treatment status, PSA levels, as well as information concerning the patient's clinical symptoms. The database may be designed to include different parts, for instance a sequence database and a gene expression database. Methods for the configuration and construction of such databases are widely available, for instance, see U.S. Pat. No. 5,953,727, which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.

[0074] The databases of the invention may be linked to an outside or external database. In a preferred embodiment, as described in Tables 1-6, the external database is GenBank and the associated databases maintained by the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI).

[0075] Any appropriate computer platform may be used to perform the necessary comparisons between sequence information, gene expression information and any other information in the database or provided as an input. For example, a large number of computer workstations are available from a variety of manufacturers, such has those available from Silicon Graphics. Client/server environments, database servers and networks are also widely available and appropriate platforms for the databases of the invention.

[0076] The databases of the invention may be used to produce, among other things, electronic Northerns that allow the user to determine the cell type or tissue in which a given gene is expressed and to allow determination of the abundance or expression level of a given gene in a particular tissue or cell.

[0077] The databases of the invention may also be used to present information identifying the expression level in a tissue or cell of a set of genes comprising at least two of the genes in Tables 1-6, comprising the step of comparing the expression level of at least one gene in Tables 1-6 found or detected in the tissue to the level of expression of the gene in the database. Such methods may be used to predict the hyperplastic state of a given tissue by comparing the level of expression of a gene or genes in Tables 1-6 from a sample to the expression levels found in normal prostate cells, BPH cells or tissue and/or malignant or cancerous prostate tissue. Such methods may also be used in the drug or agent screening assays as described below.

[0078] Selection of BPH-Associated Genes

[0079] BPH associated genes may be identified or selected by any available method, including subtractive hybridization protocols, differential display protocols and high-throughput hybridization formats, including oligonucleotide and cDNA microarray technologies.

[0080] Unprocessed or raw expression levels may be normalized, standardized and/or analyzed by any available computational method, including the expression level normalization, analysis and clustering methods herein described. The normalization method as described in Example 4 may be combined with any further analysis method, including any clustering methods available in the art.

[0081] Diagnostic Uses for the BPH Markers

[0082] As described above, the genes and gene expression information provided in Tables 1-1s 6 may be used as diagnostic markers for the prediction or identification of the hyperplastic state of a prostate or other tissue. For instance, a prostate tissue or other patient sample may be assayed by any of the methods described above, and the expression levels from a gene or genes from Tables 1-6 may be compared to the expression levels found in normal prostate tissue, BPH tissue or BPH tissue from a patient with metastatic or nonmetastatic prostate cancer. In some instances, patient PBLs may be used as the patient sample. The comparison of expression data, as well as available sequence or other information may be done by researcher or diagnostician or may be done with the aid of a computer and databases as described above.

[0083] Use of the BPH Markers for Monitoring Disease Progression

[0084] As described above, the genes and gene expression information provided in Tables 1-6 may also be used as markers for the monitoring of disease progression, such as the development of BPH. For instance, a prostate tissue or other patient sample may be assayed by any of the methods described above, and the expression levels from a gene or genes from Tables 1-6 may be compared to the expression levels found in normal prostate tissue, BPH tissue or BPH tissue from a patient with metastatic or nonmetastatic prostate cancer. The comparison of the expression data, as well as available sequence or other information may be done by researcher or diagnostician or may be done with the aid of a computer and databases as described above.

[0085] The BPH markers of the invention may also be used to track or predict the progress or efficacy of a treatment regime in a patient. For instance, a patient's progress or response to a given drug may be monitored by creating a gene expression profile from a tissue or cell sample after treatment or administration of the drug. The gene expression profile may then be compared to a gene expression profile prepared from normal cells or tissue, for instance, normal prostate tissue. The gene expression profile may also be compared to a gene expression profile prepared from BPH or malignant prostate cells, or from tissue or cells from the same patient before treatment. The gene expression profile may be made from at least one gene, preferably more than one gene, and most preferably all or nearly all of the genes in Tables 1-6.

[0086] Use of the BPH Markers for Drug Screening

[0087] According to the present invention, the genes identified in Tables 1-6 can be used as markers to screen for potential therapeutic agents or compounds to treat BPH or prostate cancer. A candidate drug or agent can be screened for the ability to stimulate the transcription or expression of a given marker or to down-regulate or counteract the transcription or expression of a marker or markers. Compounds that modulate the expression level of single gene and also compounds that modulate the expression level of multiple genes from levels associated with a specific disease state to a normal state can be screened by using the markers and profiles identified herein.

[0088] According to the present invention, one can also compare the specificity of drug's effects by looking at the number of markers which are differentially expressed after drug exposure and comparing them. More specific drugs will have less transcriptional targets. Similar sets of markers identified for two drugs may indicate a similarity of effects.

[0089] Assays to monitor the expression of a marker or markers as defined in Tables 1-6 may utilize any available means of monitoring for changes in the expression level of the nucleic acids of the invention. As used herein, an agent is said to modulate the expression of a nucleic acid of the invention if it is capable of up- or down-regulating expression of the nucleic acid in a cell.

[0090] In one assay format, gene chips containing probes to at least 2 genes from Tables 1-6 may be used to directly monitor or detect changes in gene expression in the treated or exposed cell as described in more detail above. In another format, the changes of mRNA expression level can be detected using QuantiGene technology (Warrior et. al. (2000) J. Biomolecular Screening, 5, 343-351). Specific probes used for QuantiGene can be designed and synthesized to one or more genes from Tables 1-6. Cells treated with compounds are lysed by lysis buffer. The amount of target mRNA can be detected as a luminescence intensity using target specific probes.

[0091] In another format, cell lines that contain reporter gene fusions between the open reading frame and/or 5′/3′ regulatory regions of a gene in Tables 1-6 and any assayable fusion partner may be prepared. Numerous assayable fusion partners are known and readily available including the firefly luciferase gene and the gene encoding chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (Alam et al. (1990) Anal. Biochem. 188:245-254). Cell lines containing the reporter gene fusions are then exposed to the agent to be tested under appropriate conditions and time. Differential expression of the reporter gene between samples exposed to the agent and control samples identifies agents which modulate the expression of the nucleic acid.

[0092] Additional assay formats may be used to monitor the ability of the agent to modulate the expression of a gene identified in Tables 1-6. For instance, as described above, mRNA expression may be monitored directly by hybridization of probes to the nucleic acids of the invention. Cell lines are exposed to the agent to be tested under appropriate conditions and time and total RNA or mRNA is isolated by standard procedures such those disclosed in Sambrook et al. (Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, 2nd Ed. Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 1989).

[0093] In another assay format, cells or cell lines are first identified which express the gene products of the invention physiologically (see below). Cell and/or cell lines so identified would be expected to comprise the necessary cellular machinery such that the fidelity of modulation of the transcriptional apparatus is maintained with regard to exogenous contact of agent with appropriate surface transduction mechanisms and/or the cytosolic cascades. Such cell lines may be, but are not required to be, prostate derived. Further, such cells or cell lines may be transduced or transfected with an expression vehicle (e.g., a plasmid or viral vector) construct comprising an operable non-translated 5′-promoter containing end of the structural gene encoding the instant gene products fused to one or more antigenic fragments, which are peculiar to the instant gene products, wherein said fragments are under the transcriptional control of said promoter and are expressed as polypeptides whose molecular weight can be distinguished from the naturally occurring polypeptides or may further comprise an immunologically distinct tag or some other detectable marker or tag. Such a process is well known in the art (see Maniatis).

[0094] Cells or cell lines transduced or transfected as outlined above are then contacted with agents under appropriate conditions; for example, the agent comprises a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and is contacted with cells comprised in an aqueous physiological buffer such as phosphate buffered saline (PBS) at physiological pH, Eagles balanced salt solution (BSS) at physiological pH, PBS or BSS comprising serum or conditioned media comprising PBS or BSS and/or serum incubated at 37° C. Said conditions may be modulated as deemed necessary by one of skill in the art. Subsequent to contacting the cells with the agent, said cells are disrupted and the polypeptides of the lysate are fractionated such that a polypeptide fraction is pooled and contacted with an antibody to be further processed by immunological assay (e.g., ELISA, immunoprecipitation or Western blot). The pool of proteins isolated from the “agent-contacted” sample is then compared with a control sample where only the excipient is contacted with the cells and an increase or decrease in the immunologically generated signal from the “agent-contacted” sample compared to the control is used to distinguish the effectiveness of the agent.

[0095] Another embodiment of the present invention provides methods for identifying agents that modulate at least one activity of a protein(s) encoded by the genes in Tables 1-6. Such methods or assays may utilize any means of monitoring or detecting the desired activity.

[0096] In one format, the relative amounts of a protein of the invention between a cell population that has been exposed to the agent to be tested compared to an un-exposed control cell population may be assayed. In this format, probes such as specific antibodies are used to monitor the differential expression of the protein in the different cell populations. Cell lines or populations are exposed to the agent to be tested under appropriate conditions and time. Cellular lysates may be prepared from the exposed cell line or population and a control, unexposed cell line or population. The cellular lysates are then analyzed with the probe, such as a specific antibody.

[0097] Agents that are assayed in the above methods can be randomly selected or rationally selected or designed. As used herein, an agent is said to be randomly selected when the agent is chosen randomly without considering the specific sequences involved in the association of the a protein of the invention alone or with its associated substrates, binding partners, etc. An example of randomly selected agents is the use a chemical library or a peptide combinatorial library, or a growth broth of an organism.

[0098] As used herein, an agent is said to be rationally selected or designed when the agent is chosen on a nonrandom basis which takes into account the sequence of the target site and/or its conformation in connection with the agent's action. Agents can be rationally selected or at rationally designed by utilizing the peptide sequences that make up these sites. For example, a rationally selected peptide agent can be a peptide whose amino acid sequence is identical to or a derivative of any functional consensus site.

[0099] The agents of the present invention can be, as examples, peptides, small molecules, vitamin derivatives, as well as carbohydrates. Dominant negative proteins, DNAs encoding these proteins, antibodies to these proteins, peptide fragments of these proteins or mimics of these proteins may be introduced into cells to affect function. “Mimic” used herein refers to the modification of a region or several regions of a peptide molecule to provide a structure chemically different from the parent peptide but topographically and functionally similar to the parent peptide (see Grant G A. in: Meyers (ed.) Molecular Biology and Biotechnology (New York, VCH Publishers, 1995), pp. 659-664). A skilled artisan can readily recognize that there is no limit as to the structural nature of the agents of the present invention.

[0100] Cells Used for Multi Gene Screening

[0101] Many kinds of cells such as primary cells and cell lines can be used for the drug screening methods of the invention. Cells or cell lines derived from prostatic tissues are preferred because the innate gene expression mechanisms of these cells often resemble those of prostatic tissues. Cells used for drug screening can be selected by assaying for the expression of one or more of the marker genes listed in Tables 1-6. The cells which differentially express one or more, or preferably nearly all of the marker genes listed in Tables 1-6 are preferred cells or cell lines for the methods of the invention (see Table 7).

[0102] Kits

[0103] The invention further includes kits combining, in different combinations, high-density oligonucleotide arrays, reagents for use with the arrays, signal detection and array-processing instruments, gene expression databases and analysis and database management software described above. The kits may be used, for example, to diagnose the disease state of a tissue or cell sample, to monitor the progression of prostate disease states, to identify genes that show promise as new drug targets and to screen known and newly designed drugs as discussed above.

[0104] The databases packaged with the kits are a compilation of expression patterns from human and laboratory animal genes and gene fragments (corresponding to the genes of Tables 1-6). In particular, the database software and packaged information include the expression results of Tables 1-6 that can be used in the assays and methods as herein described. In another format, database access is provided to the purchaser or user through an electronic means, e.g., via the Internet or by direct dial-in access.

[0105] The kits may used in the pharmaceutical industry, where the need for early drug testing is strong due to the high costs associated with drug development, but where bioinformatics, in particular gene expression informatics, is still lacking. These kits will reduce the costs, time and risks associated with traditional new drug screening using cell cultures and laboratory animals. The results of large-scale drug screening of pre-grouped patient populations, pharmacogenomics testing, can also be applied to select drugs with greater efficacy and fewer side-effects. The kits may also be used by smaller biotechnology companies and research institutes who do not have the facilities for performing such large-scale testing themselves.

[0106] Databases and software designed for use with use with microarrays is discussed in Balaban et al., U.S. Pat. No. 6,229,911, a computer-implemented method for managing information, stored as indexed tables, collected from small or large numbers of microarrays, and U.S. Pat. No. 6,185,561, a computer-based method with data mining capability for collecting gene expression level data, adding additional attributes and reformatting the data to produce answers to various queries. Chee et al., U.S. Pat. No. 5,974,164, disclose a software-based method for identifying mutations in a nucleic acid sequence based on differences in probe fluorescence intensities between wild type and mutant sequences that hybridize to reference sequences.

[0107] Without further description, it is believed that one of ordinary skill in the art can, using the preceding description and the following illustrative examples, make and utilize the genes, chips, etc. of the present invention and practice the claimed methods. The following working examples therefore, specifically point out the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting in any way the remainder of the disclosure.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

Gene Chip Expression Analysis

[0108] Human tissue was obtained from the transitional zone of the prostate (the junction between the ejaculatory duct and the prostatic urethra) in biopsy samples from normal individuals and from patients with BPH or prostate cancer. BPH was defined histologically in all samples. Normal tissue and asymptomatic BPH samples came from individuals who died of trauma and did not report symptoms. Because BPH is a disease associated with aging, two groups of normal individuals were identified, group 1, ages 20 or under, and group 2, ages 30-50. Patients having BPH with symptoms were defined as those with a need for frequent urination. In these patients, a radical prostatectomy had been performed. Prostate cancer patients provided age-matched tissue samples for symptomatic BPH patients, but were without symptoms and without cancer in the transitional zone under histological examination.

[0109] Microarray sample preparation was conducted with minor modifications, following the protocols set forth in the Affymetrix GeneChip Expression Analysis Manual. Frozen tissue was ground to a powder using a Spex Certiprep 6800 Freezer Mill. Total RNA was extracted with Trizol (GibcoBRL) utilizing the manufacturer's protocol. The total RNA yield for each sample was 200-500 μg per 300 mg tissue weight. mRNA was isolated using the Oligotex mRNA Midi kit (Qiagen) followed by ethanol precipitation. Double stranded cDNA was generated from mRNA using the SuperScript Choice system (GibcoBRL). First strand cDNA synthesis was primed with a T7-(dT24) oligonucleotide. The cDNA was phenol-chloroform extracted and ethanol precipitated to a final concentration of 1 μg/ml. From 2 μg of cDNA, cRNA was synthesized using Ambion's T7 MegaScript in vitro Transcription Kit.

[0110] To biotin label the cRNA, nucleotides Bio-11-CTP and Bio-16-UTP (Enzo Diagnostics) were added to the reaction. Following a 37° C. incubation for six hours, impurities were removed from the labeled cRNA following the RNeasy Mini kit protocol (Qiagen). cRNA was fragmented (fragmentation buffer consisting of 200 mM Tris-acetate, pH 8.1, 500 mM KOAc, 150 mM MgOAc) for thirty-five minutes at 94° C. Following the Affymetrix protocol, 55 μg of fragmented cRNA was hybridized on the Affymetrix Human 42K array set for twenty-four hours at 60 mpm in a 45° C. hybridization oven. The chips were washed and stained with Streptavidin Phycoerythrin (SAPE) (Molecular Probes) in Affymetrix fluidics stations. To amplify staining, SAPE solution was added twice with an anti-streptavidin biotinylated antibody (Vector Laboratories) staining step in between. Hybridization to the probe arrays was detected by fluorometric scanning (Hewlett Packard Gene Array Scanner). Data was analyzed using Affymetrix GeneChip version 3.0 and Expression Data Mining Tool (EDMT) software (version 1.0).

[0111] Differential expression of genes between the BPH and normal prostate samples were determined using the Affymetrix GeneChip human gene chip set by the following criteria: 1) For each gene, Affymetrix GeneChip average difference values were determined by standard Affymetrix EDMT software algorithms, which also made “Absent” (=not specifically detected as gene expression), “Present” (=detected) or “Marginal” (=not clearly Absent or Present) calls for each GeneChip element; 2) all AveDiff values which were less than +20 (positive 20) were raised to a floor of +20 so that fold change calculations could be made where values were not already greater than or equal to +20; 3) median levels of expression were compared between the normal control group and the BPH with symptoms disease group to obtain greater than or equal 2-fold up/down values; 4) The median value for the higher expressing group needed to be greater or equal to 200 average difference units in order to be considered for statistical significance; 5) Genes passing the criteria of #1-4 were analyzed for statistical significance using a two-tailed T test and deemed statistically significant if p<0.05. Tables 1 and 2 list the genes and their levels of differential expression (compared to normal samples) in BPH tissue from patients with symptoms of BPH and in BPH tissue immediately adjacent to malignant prostate tissue isolated from male patients.

Example 2

Expression Profile Analysis

[0112] Gene expression profiles between normal sample and BPH patient samples were determined by using the following samples: 10 normal; 7 BPH without symptoms; 8 BPH with cancer; and 8 BPH with symptoms. Gene expression profiles were prepared using the 42K Affymetrix Gene Chip set. The methods used were the same as described in Example 1 with the exception of the criteria to select the marker genes.

[0113] The criteria used in this study were as follows; 1) For each gene, Affymetrix GeneChip average difference values were determined by standard Affymetrix EDMT software algorithms, which also made “Absent” (=not specifically detected as gene expression), “Present” (=detected) or “Marginal” (=not clearly Absent or Present) calls for each GeneChip element; 2) all AveDiff values which were less than +20 (positive 20) were raised to a floor of +20 so that fold change calculations could be made where values were not already greater than or equal to +20; 3) mean levels of expression were compared between the normal control group and the BPH with symptoms disease group; 4) genes were arranged by the fold change starting with the largest one (Fold change calculation was determined by using logarithmic values in Example 2); and 5) the top 200 up-regulated genes and bottom 200 down-regulated genes were selected. The genes identified in this study are listed in Tables 3 (normal vs. BPH with symptoms, up regulated) and 4 (normal vs. BPH with symptoms, down regulated, values are negative fold-change from normal).

Example 3

Selection of Cell Lines Used for Multi Gene Screening

[0114] A number of cultured cell lines were tested to determine the similarity in gene expression profiles to BPH tissue. Cells were cultured in 6-well plates using the appropriate medium for each cell line. After reaching 90% confluency, cells were lysed with Trizol (GiboBRL) and total RNA was extracted. mRNA was then isolated, cDNA and cRNA was synthesized, and gene expression levels were determined by the Affymetrix Human 42K Gene Chip set as described in more detail above.

[0115] The gene expression profiles were compared with those of prostatic tissue samples. A panel of 61 genes whose expression levels were up-regulated in BPH with symptoms compared with normal samples and with small variation among samples (within BPH samples and within normal samples) were assayed. The group of genes whose signal intensity was more than 100 in each cell line is summarized in Table 1. A panel of 43 genes whose expression levels were down-regulated in BPH patient with small variation among samples was also assayed. The group of genes whose signal intensity in Affymetrix Gene Chip was “Present call” is also included in Table 1. Similarly, genes whose expression level is up- or down-regulated in patients with BPH and cancer, compared to normal controls, are listed in Table 2.

[0116] Forty-eight to 58% of genes applied for this analysis were expressed in the cell lines of Table 7. These results indicate that cell lines, BRF-55T (Biological Research Faculty & Facility Inc.), PZ-HPV7 (ATCC; CRL-2221), BPH-1 (S.W. Hayward et al., In Vitro Cell Dev. Biol. 31A, 14-24, 1995) and LNCaP (ATCC; CRL-1740) can be used as a BPH—like cell population to screen for compounds which are capable of modulating gene expression profiles from the disease state to a normal state using the genes of Tables 1-6. In particular, BRF-55T is a useful cell line for screening in the assays of the invention, because 58% genes of the assayed genes were differentially expressed in BRF-55T as compared to BPH with symptoms tissue.

Example 4

Cluster Analysis of Up- or Down-Regulated Genes in BPH

[0117] Cluster analysis of the expression results from a large number of genes is often problematic due to variations in the standardization of the gene expression data. To compensate for these variations, a subset of differentially expressed genes was selected by a modified analysis procedure.

[0118] In a first step, a gene list comparing normal vs. disease samples was generated by two kinds of comparisons. First, genes were selected that displayed a greater than or equal to mean 2-fold up or down regulation using average difference expression values and with p<0.05. Second, genes were selected by ANOVA comparing the normal group of samples with the disease group and with a t value of >3 in the up or down direction. These lists were then combined to create an expression profile characteristic of normal controls and one characteristic of disease in which specific genes are found to be up or down regulated in disease when compared with normal controls.

[0119] In preparation for clustering analysis to identify subgroups of genes that show statistically similar expression patterns, average difference values for the selected genes were normalized across all samples (normal and disease combined) using the following formula:

Normalization data=(X−Xmean)/Sx

[0120] where Sx is variance (:STD)

[0121] This converts the mean expression value for each gene to 0 and the high and low values to 1 and −1, respectively. Thus, genes with high absolute expression values when compared with genes with low absolute expression values would not skew the comparisons when clustering algorithms are applied. The measurement of the cluster space distance was determined by using the correlation coefficient (1-r) method and clustering was performed using Ward's method (Ward, J. H. (1963) Journal of American Statistical Association, 58. 236.)

[0122] The clustering was validated by observing whether multiple elements representing the same genes showing the same direction of expression change (i.e., either up or down) tend to cluster together. To test this standardization and clustering protocol, the expression levels for genes that are represented by more than one element on the 42K gene chip set were analyzed to determine whether the multiple elements for a single gene could be clustered together. For example, tryptase, also known as alpha tryptase or beta (tryptase II) is represented by two separate elements on the 42K human gene chip. This gene is registered with 2 different element names 41268 (5), M33493_s_at (code name, Up-170) and 26389 (3), rc_AA131322—s_at (code name, Up-010).

[0123] It was found that the best analysis means for decreasing measurement errors between these two elements is by the Ward method as it gave the most consistent results when compared to other clustering methods. These analysis methods may be incorporated into software or computer readable storage media for storing a computer programmer software.

Example 5

Selection of 60 Marker Genes

[0124] A panel of 60 representative marker genes (listed in Table 5) out of 400 marker genes listed in Tables 3 and 4 can be used in the assays and methods of the invention. The 60 marker genes were selected based on following criteria: (1) expression level is changed greatly in BPH patient samples compared with normal samples; (2) variation of expression levels within BPH samples and within normal samples is small; and (3) expression levels resembling BPH with symptoms are detected in cell line BRF-55T.

Example 6

Gene Expression Analysis of Select Genes

[0125] The expression levels of three genes from Tables 1-5 (the genes encoding cellular retinol binding protein, S100 calcium binding protein and PSMA) were assayed in various tissues and prostate samples by PCR as described in Example 7 (see FIGS. 1-6). Each sample was assayed for the level of GAPDH and mRNA corresponding to cellular retinol binding protein, S100 calcium binding protein or PSMA. As seen in FIGS. 1-6, these three genes are differentially regulated or expressed in BPH tissue from patients with or without symptoms and from BPH tissue from patients with prostate cancer (compared to normal prostate tissue). All three genes are therefore useful markers in the assays of the invention, such as the assays to measure the effect of an agent on BPH or the assays to detect or diagnose the occurrence or progression of BPH.

Example 7

Drug Screening Assays

[0126] The expression profiles for normal controls and disease samples described above can be used to identify compound hits from a compound library. A hit may be, but is not necessarily, defined as one of three kinds of results:

[0127] 1) The expression of an individual gene is changed in the direction of normal (i.e., if UP in disease, then down-hit, if down in disease, then up=hit). The stronger the modulation of an individual gene to a normnal phenotype, the stronger the hit status for the compound against that gene.

[0128] 2) The expression of genes that sub cluster together is evaluated for an overall pattern of modulation to a normal expression profile. The more genes in a subcluster that are modulated to a normal phenotype, the stronger the hit status for the compound against that subcluster. A subcluster may represent common or interacting cellular pathways.

[0129] 3) The overall expression profile of all of the genes being screened is evaluated for modulation to normal. The more genes that are modulated to a normal phenotype, the stronger the hit status for the compound against the entire gene set.

[0130] As described above, if a compound modulates the gene expression pattern of the screening system cells more towards any disease phenotype, then it can be used as a molecular probe to find binding proteins and/or define disease-associated cellular pathways.

[0131] As an example, candidate agents and compounds are screened for their ability to modulate the expression levels of cellular retinol binding protein, S100 calcium binding protein and PSMA by exposing a prostate cell line or cell line from BPH tissue to the agent and assaying the expression levels of these genes by real time PCR. Real time PCR detection is accomplished by the use of the ABI PRISM 7700 Sequence Detection System. The 7700 measures the fluorescence intensity of the sample each cycle and is able to detect the presence of specific amplicons within the PCR reaction. Each sample is assayed for the level of GAPDH and mRNA corresponding to cellular retinol binding protein, S100 calcium binding protein and PSMA. GAPDH detection is performed using Perkin Elmer part#402869 according to the manufacturer's directions. Primers were designed for the three genes by using Primer Express, a program developed by PE to efficiently find primers and probes for specific sequences ((1) N91971-FAM PROBE Forward: 5′-CAT ggC TTT gTT TTA AgA AAA ggA A-3′; Reverse: 5′-AgC CAC CCC CAg gCA T-3′; Probe: 5′-FAM-AgT gAC AAA gCC AAg AgA CAg ACT CTg CTA ACA-TAMRA-3′; (2) X65614-SYBR; Forward: 5′-AAA gAC AAg gAT gCC gTg gAT-3′; Reverse 5′-AgC CAC gAA CAC gAT gAA CTC-3′; (3) M99487-SYB; Forward 5′-Tgg CTC AgC ACC ACC Aga T-3′; Reverse: 5′-TTC Cag TAA AgC Cag gTC CAA-3′)

[0132] These primers are used in conjunction with SYBR green (Molecular Probes), a nonspecific double stranded DNA dye, to measure the expression level mRNA corresponding to the genes, which is normalized to the GAPDH level in each sample.

[0133] Normalized expression levels from cells exposed to the agent are then compared to the normalized expression levels in control cells. Agents that modulate the expression of one or more the genes may be further tested as drug candidates in appropriate BPH in vitro or in vivo models.

Example 8

Comparative Assays

[0134] The expression of a panel of marker genes was compared, in the same subjects as disclosed in Example 2, in a pairwise fashion between the BPH patients with (BPHWS) or without (BPHNoS) symptoms versus normal (Normal) controls and asymptomatic BPH patients with cancer (Cancer). In every case, the tissue was excised from the junction between the ejaculatory duct and the prostatic urethra in the transition zone of the prostate. In particular, BPH tissue from patients with early stage prostate cancer was carefully excised away from the cancer lesion macroscopically, and their histological diagnosis was confirmed microscopically.

[0135] Pairwise comparisons between the subject groups were subjected to an Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) model. P-values corresponding to each of six possible pairwise comparisons among the four sample groups were then determined for each gene. Table 6 depicts Affymetrix fragments, along with their GenBank accession number, which have p<0.001 for two or more of the pairwise comparisons.

[0136] A Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was performed to show that this gene set serves as a basis to discriminate among the various groups of samples. The samples are plotted using the scores for the first three principal components. Each of the four sample groups can be clearly distinguished from one another in this analysis (FIG. 7A). Component 1 (36% of the variability) discriminates between Normal and asymptomatic BPH versus BPH cancer and symptomatic BPH. Component 2 (10% of the variability) distinguishes Normal from asymptomatic BPH, and Component 3 (8% of the variability) distinguishes BPH cancer from symptomatic BPH.

[0137] FIG. 7B shows a two-dimensional representation of the PCA, with Component 1 plotted against Components 2+3. Each of the four sample groups is clustered in a different quadrant of this figure. Within each sample group, there does not appear to be any age-related clustering of samples. Further, since there is an overlap of ages between the samples groups, it does not appear that age was a confounding factor for the analysis based on this gene set. Because BPH is perceived as a natural consequence of aging, two subgroups of normal individuals were initially identified. A ‘younger’ set included individuals ranging in age from 13-20 years while the ‘older’ set ranged from 31-51 years. However, because the two subsets appeared to be indistinguishable at the molecular level, they were grouped together and in all subsequent analysis referred to as ‘Normal’ group.

[0138] Another finding was that the intra-group variability (i.e., the tightness of clustering) differed between the four groups (FIG. 7A). Normal patients exhibited the least intra-group variability, followed by asymptomatic BPH and symptomatic BPH with BPH cancer patients exhibiting the most patient-to-patient variability. On the other hand, with regard to the inter-group variation, the asymptomatic BPH group appeared to be more similar to the normal group than to symptomatic BPH (FIG. 7B).

[0139] Asymptomatic BPH samples were obtained from individuals that died from other causes and had no records of being treated for BPH but had histological evidence for BPH when examined retrospectively. Since asymptomatic samples clearly exhibit the BPH phenotype at the microscopic level, one would expect the two BPH groups to exhibit more similarity than disparity. Similarly, that the BPH cancer group is distinct from asymptomatic BPH but is more similar to the symptomatic BPH group (FIG. 7B). Since transition zone tissue from patients with prostate cancer with no clinical symptoms of BPH was analyzed from these patients, this group of patients would be expected to appear similar to normal or asymptomatic BPH. The fact that the BPH cancer group can be distinguished from every other group is also an unexpected finding. Subsequent to this PCA, additional samples were studied to extend these findings. These included two normals and three symptomatic BPH patients. Using the same set of genes, a PCA was performed with these additional samples. In FIG. 7C, the two new normal (Norm) samples group with the previous normal samples and the three new symptomatic BPH (BPH) samples group with the other symptomatic BPH samples.

Example 9

Diagnostic Assays

[0140] The expression profiles or one or more of the individual genes of Tables 1-6 are used as molecular or diagnostic markers to evaluate the disease status of a patient sample. In one embodiment, a patient prostate tissue sample is processed as described herein to produce total a cellular or mRNA. The RNA is hybridized to a chip continuing probes that specifically hybridize to one or more, or two or more of the genes in Tables 1-6. The overall expression profile generated, or the expression levels of individual genes are then compared to the profiles as described in Tables 1-6 to determine the disease or hyperplastic state of the patient sample.

[0141] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to examples above, it is understood that various modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. Accordingly, the invention is limited only by the following claims. All cited patents, applications, GenBank Accession numbers and publications referred to in this application are herein incorporated by reference in their entirety.
