Project description:UVR is the principal risk factor for melanoma development. While the role of UVR in DNA mutagenesis is incontrovertible, it remains controversial what role UVR-induced mutations play in melanoma genesis. To better understand how UVR is contributing to melanoma development, we investigated the non-mutational effect of UVR on the epigenome, specifically DNA methylation. Aberrant DNA methylation changes are a hallmark in melanoma; however, there are few reports on the effects of UVR on DNA methylation. We exposed melanocytes to UVR and cultured them for one-month to detect hertible and stable changes in DNA methylation. We found both hyper and hypo methylated sites after UVR exposure. While many of these changes occured outside of promoters and areas of active gene expression, there were changes in promoter DNA methylation changes that correlated with changes in gene expression. These changes also correlated with those found in melanoma and UVR sensitive sites were prognostic of patient overall survival. Our work shows for the first time UVR induced DNA methylation changes in melanocytes and may be another way in which UVR contributes to melanoma development.

Project description:Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is the greatest risk factor for melanoma development.

Project description:UVR is the greastest risk factor for melanoma develoment. While the role of UVR in DNA mutagenesis is incontrovertable, is is unclear how UVR induced mutations contribute to melanoma. For example, many of the driver mutations ( BRAF V600E or NRAS Q61R) do not bear the UVR signature C>T mutation. To better understand how UVR is contributing to melanoma development, we investigated the non-mutational effect of UVR on the epigenome, specifically DNA methylation. Aberrant DNA methylation changes are a hallmark in melanoma and there are few reports on the effects of UVR ion DNA methylation. We exposed melanocytes to UVR and cultured them for one-month to detect hertible and stable changes in DNA methylation. We found both hyper and hypo methylated sites after UVR exposure. While many of these changes occured outside of promoters and areas of active gene expression, there were changes in promoter DNA methylation changes that correlated with changes in gene expression.

Project description:Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an acidic phospholipid that is involved in various cellular events. Heterologous dominant mutations have been identified in the gene encoding PS synthase 1 (PSS1) in patients of a congenital disease called Lenz-Majewski syndrome (LMS). LMS patients show various symptoms, including craniofacial/distal-limb bone dysplasia and progressive hyperostosis. The LMS-causing gain-of-function mutants of PSS1 (PSS1-LMS) have been shown to synthesize PS without control, but why the uncontrolled synthesis would lead to LMS is unknown. We investigated the effect of PSS1-LMS(Q353R) on osteoclasts to elucidate the causative mechanism of LMS and found that PSS1-LMS inhibited the formation, multinucleation, and activity of osteoclasts. We used microarrays to comprehensively examine the effects of PSS1-LMS on osteoclast gene expression.

Project description:Scleractinian corals are the major builders of the complex structural framework of coral reefs. They live in tropical waters around the globe where they are frequently exposed to potentially harmful ultraviolet radiation (UVR). Coral eggs and early embryonic stages are thought to be the most sensitive life stages of corals to UVR given that they are highly buoyant and remain near the sea surface for prolonged periods of time. Here we analyzed gene expression changes in different larval stages of the Caribbean coral Montastraea faveolata to natural levels of UVR using high-density cDNA microarrays (10,930 clones). We found that larvae exhibit low sensitivity to natural levels of UVR during most time points analyzed as reflected by comparatively few transcriptomic changes in response to UVR. However, we identified a time window of high UVR sensitivity that coincides with the motile planula stage and the onset of larval competence. These processes have been shown to be affected upon UVR exposure, and the transcriptional changes we identified explain these observations well. Our analysis of differentially expressed genes indicates that UVR induces a stress response and affects the expression of neurogenesis-related genes that can be linked to swimming and settlement behavior at later stages. Taken together, our study provides further data to the impact of natural levels of UVR on coral larvae. Furthermore, our results might allow a better prediction of settlement and recruitment rates after coral spawning events based on UVR climate data.

Project description:Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a malignant neoplasm with smooth muscle differentiation. Little is known about its molecular heterogeneity and no targeted therapy currently exists for LMS. We demonstrate the existence of 3 molecular subtypes in a cohort of 99 cases and an independent cohort of 82 LMS. Two new FFPE tissue-compatible diagnostic immunohistochemical markers are identified: LMOD1 for subtype I LMS and ARL4C for subtype II LMS. Subtype I and subtype II LMS are associated with good and poor prognosis, respectively. The LMS subtypes show significant differences in expression levels for genes for which novel targeted therapies are being developed.

Project description:Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a mesenchymal neoplasm with complex copy number alterations and characteristic loss of tumor suppressor genes without known recurrent activating mutations. Clinical management of advanced LMS relies on chemotherapy and complementary palliative approaches, and research efforts to date have had limited success identifying clinically actionable biomarkers or targeted therapeutic vulnerabilities. To explore the biological underpinning of LMS, we evaluated gene expression patterns of this disease in comparison to diverse sarcomas, non-mesenchymal neoplasms and normal myogenic tissues. We identified a recurrent gene expression program in LMS, with evidence of oncogenic evolution of an underlying smooth muscle lineage-derived program characterized by activation of E2F1 and downstream effectors. Recurrently amplified or highly expressed genes in LMS were identified that may represent therapeutic vulnerabilities, including targeting of IGF1R and retinoid signaling pathways. Though the majority of expressed transcripts were conserved across LMS samples, three separate subtypes were identified that were enriched for muscle-associated transcripts (conventional-LMS), immune markers (inflammatory-LMS) or a uterine-like gene expression program (uterogenic-LMS). Each of these subtypes express a unique subset of genes that may be useful in the managemeny of LMS: IGF1R was enriched in conventional LMS with prognostic implications, worse disease-specific survival was observed in inflammatory LMS, and prolactin was elaborated by uterogenic LMS and may represent a disease biomarker. These results extend our understanding of LMS biology and identify several strategies and challenges for further translational investigation.

Project description:Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is a soft tissue tumor with a significant degree of morphologic and molecular heterogeneity. We employed integrative molecular profiling to discover and characterize molecular subtypes of LMS. Gene expression profiling was performed on 51 LMS samples. Unsupervised clustering demonstrated 3 reproducible LMS clusters. Array comparative genomic hybridization (aCGH) was performed on 20 LMS samples and demonstrated that the molecular subtypes defined by gene-expression showed distinct genomic changes. Tumors from the "muscle-enriched" cluster showed significantly increased copy number changes (p=0.04). Most muscle-enriched cases showed loss at 16q24 which contains FANCA, known to play an important role in DNA repair, and loss at 1p36 which contains PRDM16, whose loss promotes muscle differentiation. Immunohistochemistry was performed on LMS tissue microarrays (n= 377) for five markers with high levels of mRNA in the muscle-enriched cluster (ACTG2, CASQ2, SLMAP,CFL2, MYLK) and demonstrated significantly correlated expression of the 5 proteins (all pairwise p < 0.005). Expression of the 5 markers was associated with improved disease-specific survival (DSS) in a multivariate Cox regression analysis (p < 0.04). In this analysis that combined gene expression profiling, aCGH and immunohistochemistry, we characterized distinct molecular LMS subtypes, provided insight into their pathogenesis, and identified prognostic biomarkers. This set contains microarray slides from expression studies.
