Project description:Retinoblastoma is the most common intraocular cancer of infancy and childhood, with an incidence of one case per 15,000 - 20,000 live births. An early event in retinoblastoma genesis is a functional loss of both alleles of the RB1 gene. However, other genes are likely to be involved in the development of this cancer. In this study we sought to build a comprehensive molecular portrait of this cancer by performing transcriptomic, methylomic, as well as genomic profiling of primary retinoblastoma samples. The patients whose tumors were studied had received no treatment prior to surgical enucleation. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), the most common malignant disorder in childhood, is typically associated with numerical chromosomal aberrations, fusion genes or small focal deletions, thought to represent important pathogenetic events in the development of the leukemia. Mutations, such as single nucleotide changes, have also been reported in childhood ALL, but these have only been studied by sequencing a small number of candidate genes. Herein, we report the first unbiased sequencing of the whole exome of two cases of pediatric ALL carrying the ETV6/RUNX1 (TEL/AML1) fusion gene (the most common genetic subtype) and corresponding normal samples. A total of 14 somatic mutations were identified, including four and seven protein-altering nucleotide substitutions in each ALL. Twelve mutations (86%) occurred in genes previously described to be mutated in other types of cancer, but none was found to be recurrent in an extended series of 29 ETV6/RUNX1-positive ALLs. The number of single nucleotide mutations was similar to the number of copy number alterations as detected by single nucleotide polymorphism arrays. Although the true pathogenetic significance of the mutations must await future functional evaluations, this study provides a first estimate of the mutational burden at the genetic level of t(12;21)-positive childhood ALL. Affymetrix SNP arrays were performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from 2 leukemic bone marrow samples and two corresponding normal blood samples.

Illumina SNP-array genotyping was performed according to the manufacturer's directions on DNA extracted from 2 leukemic bone marrow samples and two corresponding normal blood samples. The genotype data from the arrays were used for quality assesment of genotype data from high throughput sequencing.

Project description:Retinoblastoma is a childhood cancer of the developing retina that initiates with biallelic inactivation of the RB1 gene. To develop a laboratory model of human retinoblastoma formation, we made induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) from 15 participants with germline RB1 mutations. After 45 days in culture, the retinal organoids were dissociated and injected into the vitreous of eyes of immunocompromised mice to support retinoblastoma tumor growth. Retinoblastomas formed from retinal organoids made from patient-derived iPSCs had molecular, cellular and genomic features indistinguishable from human retinoblastomas.

Project description:Background: MYCN gene is a transcription factor whose amplification and overexpression can lead to tumorigenesis. In retina, MYCN overexpression is related to tumorigenesis of retinoblastoma, a childhood cancer. Purpose: To find out differentially expressed genes in MYCN-overexpressing cells, which will give information of MYCN-related gene expression and possibly find out new pathways in mechanism of retinoblastoma tumorigenesis with MYCN overexpression. Methods: MYCN-overexpressing cells were taken from MYCN electroporated E14 chicken retina and kept in culture. Unelectroporated E14 chicken retina central region was dissected as a control. Total RNA was extracted and sequenced on Illumina NovaSeq 6000. The data were used for differential expression analysis and GO/Pathway enrichment analysis.
