Description
Origins of the brain tumor, medulloblastoma, from stem cells or restricted pro-genitor cells are unclear. To investigate this, we activated oncogenic Hedgehog signaling in multipotent and lineage-restricted CNS progenitors. We observed that normal unipo-tent cerebellar granule neuron precursors (CGNP) derive from hGFAP+ and Olig2+ rhombic lip progenitors. Hedgehog activation in a spectrum of early and late stage CNS progenitors generated similar medulloblastomas, but not other brain cancers, indicating that acquisition of CGNP identity is essential for tumorigenesis. We show in human and mouse medulloblastoma that cells expressing the glia-associated markers Gfap and Olig2 are neoplastic and that they retain features of embryonic-type granule lineage progenitors. Thus, oncogenic Hedgehog signaling promotes medulloblastoma from lineage-restricted granule cell progenitors.

Acquisition of granule neuron precursor identity is a critical determinant of progenitor cell competence to form Shh-induced medulloblastoma.

Description
To gain insights into tumor heterogeneity in anti-cancer drug responses of patient-derived xenograft models of HER2+ breast cancer brain metastases, we performed transcriptome gene expression profiling by Ion AmpliSeqâ„¢ Transcriptome sequencing that targets more than 20,000 human genes. Our data found that all anti-cancer drugs responders have significantly higher expression levels of AKT-mTOR-dependent signature genes as compared to the non-responders, suggesting that most HER2+ breast cancer brain metastases are depend on the AKT-mTOR pathway Overall design: Gene expression profiles of five PDX samples were generated by Ion AmpliSeq Transcriptome sequencing, in duplcate, using Ion torrent Proton machine.

Description
Macrophage aging is pathogenic in numerous diseases, including age-related macular degeneration. Although prior studies have explored the functional consequences of macrophage aging, less is known about its cellular basis or what defines the transition from physiologic aging to disease. The purpose of this experiment was to characterize the transcriptomic changes associated with macrophage aging.

Description
We have developed a nonheuristic genome topography scan (GTS) algorithm to characterize the patterns of genomic alterations in human glioblastoma (GBM), identifying frequent p18INK4C and p16INK4A codeletion. Functional reconstitution of p18INK4C in GBM cells null for both p16INK4A and p18INK4C resulted in impaired cell-cycle progression and tumorigenic potential. Conversely, RNAi-mediated depletion of p18INK4C in p16INK4A-deficient primary astrocytes or established GBM cells enhanced tumorigenicity in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, acute suppression of p16INK4A in primary astrocytes induced a concomitant increase in p18INK4C. Together, these findings uncover a feedback regulatory circuit in the astrocytic lineage and demonstrate a bona fide tumor suppressor role for p18INK4C in human GBM wherein it functions cooperatively with other INK4 family members to constrain inappropriate proliferation.

Description
SOX2 is a transcription factor essential for pluripotent stem cells, and development and maintenance of squamous epithelium. We previously reported SOX2 an oncogene subject to highly recurrent genomic amplification in squamous cell carcinomas (SCCs)1. Here we demonstrate in SCCs that SOX2 interacts with another master squamous transcription factor p63, and through ChIP-seq show that genomic occupancy of SOX2 overlaps with that of p63 at a large number of loci and that they cooperatively regulate gene expression including ETV4, which we find essential for SOX2-amplified SCC cell survival. Furthermore, SOX2 binds to distinct genomic loci in SCCs than in embryonic stem cells and the SOX2-p63 coordinate binding is unique to SCC. In addition, a subset of SOX2 genomic binding sites in SCC that lack p63 co-occupancy are co-occupied by the AP-1 transcriptional complex. These demonstrate that SOX2’s actions in SCC differ substantially from its role in pluripotency and identify novel SOX2 interactions that will enable deeper characterization of SOX2’s function in SCC. Overall design: KYSE70 cells with stable expression of either pLKO-Tet-Op-shSOX2 or pLKO-Tet-Op-shTp63 were treated with 50ng/ml of doxycyline for 4 days. Total RNA was extracted, polyA+ selected, reverse transcribed, library constructed and sequencing was performed with Illumina HiSeq 2000. Differencial gene expression between the stable cell lines with Dox-induced and non-Dox treated was analyzed to determine the effects by suppression of either SOX2 or TP63 in KYSE70 cells.
