Expression data from synovial sarcoma-like tumors induced in a genetically engineered mouse model

ABSTRACT: Synovial sarcoma-like tumors were generated in mice by conditionally expressing the human t(X;18) translocation-derived SYT-SSX2 fusion protein. Using a Tamoxifen-inducible CreER system, we show here that sporadic expression of SYT-SSX2 across multiple tissue types leads to exclusive formation of synovial sarcoma-like tumors while its widespread expression is lethal. CreER-based sporadic expression both avoids the severe early developmental phenotypes associated with widespread SYT-SSX2 expression and better models natural pathogenesis of cancers where transformed cells usually arise within an environment of largely normal cells.

Transcription profiling of synovial sarcoma-like tumors induced in a genetically engineered mouse model

Experiment Overall Design: Genetically engineered mice capable of conditionally expressing the human synovial sarcoma-associated SYT-SSX2 fusion oncogene were mated with genetically engineered mice expressing the CreER fusion protein from ROSA locus. The progenies harboring both CreER and SYT-SSX2 were followed up with or without tamoxifen injection. Tumors were generated in these mice that were dissected out, RNA extracted, and subjected to expression profiling by microarray analysis.

Reprogramming of mesenchymal stem cells by the synovial sarcoma-associated oncogene SYT-SSX2

Project description:Cellular identity is determined by its gene expression programs. The ability of the cell to change its identity and produce cell types outside its lineage is achieved by the activity of transcription controllers capable of reprogramming differentiation gene networks. The synovial sarcoma associated protein, SYT-SSX2, reprograms myogenic progenitors and human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) by dictating their commitment to a pro-neural lineage. It fulfills this function by directly targeting an extensive array of neural-specific genes as well as genes of developmental pathway mediators. Concomitantly, the ability of both myoblasts and BMMSCs to differentiate into their normal myogenic and adipogenic lineages was compromised. Synovial sarcoma is believed to arise in mesenchymal stem cells where formation of the t(X;18) translocation product, SYT-SSX, constitutes the primary event in the cancer. SYT-SSX is therefore believed to initiate tumorigenesis in its target stem cell. The data presented here allow a glimpse at the initial events that likely occur when SYT-SSX2 is first expressed and its dominant function in subverting the nuclear program of the stem cell, leading to its aberrant differentiation, as a first step toward transformation. In addition, we identified the fibroblast growth factor receptor gene, Fgfr2, as one occupied and upregulated by SYT-SSX2. Knockdown of FGFR2 in both BMMSCs and synovial sarcoma cells abrogated their growth and attenuated their neural phenotype. These results support the notion that the SYT-SSX2 nuclear function and differentiation effects are conserved throughout sarcoma development and are required for its maintenance beyond the initial phase. They also provide the stem cell regulator, FGFR2 as a promising candidate target for future synovial sarcoma therapy. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Genomewide occupancy of the synovial sarcoma-associated SYT-SSX2 oncoprotein in C2C12 myoblasts

Project description:Synovial sarcoma is a rare malignancy that is characterized by the presence of a chromosomal translocation t(X;18). This genetic abnormality results in the fusion of 2 transcriptional co-regulators, SYT and SSX, which have been shown to mediate transcriptional activation and repression, respectively. Although the fusion protein does not bind DNA directly, SYT-SSX2 is known to function through interaction with chromatin-modifying complexes. In this study, we wanted to determine the SYT-SSX2 occupancy across the whole genome in order to further characterize its function by identifying genes that may be deregulated by this protein. C2C12 myoblasts were infected with retrovirus carrying SYT-SSX2-HA-FLAG expression vector. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) was performed on cell lysates with either control IgG antibody (Abcam) or anti-FLAG antibody (Sigma). Lysates from 2 independent infections were pooled and used to isolate control ChIP DNA (IgG). DNA from 2 independent FLAG ChIP experiments (each using lysates from 2 independent infections) was pooled for SYT-SSX2 ChIP.

Global Identification of SYT-SSX2 Downstream Genes using Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

Project description:We established human pluripotent stem cell (PSC) lines expressing Synovial Sarcoma-specific oncogene, SYT-SSX2, under the control of doxycycline with dose- and time-dependent manner. Gene expression profiles were analyzed to identify early response genes of SYT-SSX2. SYT-SSX2-inducible PSC lines including two hESCs and one hiPSC were analyzed at several time points (0, 6, 12, 18, 24 hours) after doxycycline treatment.

Gene expression profile of SYT-SSX2-expressing C2C12 myoblasts

Project description:Synovial sarcoma is a rare malignancy characterized by the presence of a specific chromosomal translocation t(X;18) that results in the formation of a fusion protein SYT-SSX. Because it is believed that synovial sarcoma arises from mesenchymal stem or progenitor cells, we wanted to determine the changes in gene expression caused by SYT-SSX2 in untransformed mesenchymal progenitor cells - murine C2C12 myoblasts in this experiment. In 2 independent experiments, C2C12 myoblasts were infected with retrovirus carrying either control vector (pOZ) or SYT-SSX2 expression vector. Total cellular RNA was extracted 48 hours post-infection and utilized for microarray analysis on Affymetrix arrays.

Expression following beta-catenin stabilization in synovial sarcomagenesis

Project description:Synovial sarcoma is a deadly soft-tissue malignancy with a predilection for adolescents and young adults. Mice recapitulate synovial sarcomagenesis from expression of SS18-SSX2 in certain cells. Concomitant expression of a stabilized form of beta-catenin enhances synovial sarcomagenesis and expands the potential cells of origin. Mice bearing conditional expression of SS18-SSX2 from the Rosa26 locus and conditional excision of the 3rd exon of beta-catenin, each activated in the leg by Cre-recombinase expressed from an adeno-associated viral vector, formed large tumors at brief latency.
