Stabilization of b-catenin induces lymphomas

ABSTRACT: Activation of b-catenin has been causatively linked to the etiology of colon cancer. Conditional stabilization of this molecule in pro-T-cells promotes thymocyte development without the requirement for preTCR signaling. We show here that activated b-catenin stalls the developmental transition from the double-positive (DP) to the single-positive (SP) thymocyte stage and predisposes DP thymocytes to transformation. b-Catenin induced thymic lymphomas have a leukemic arrest at the early DP stage. Lymphomagenesis requires Rag activity, which peaks at this developmental stage, as well as additional secondary genetic events. A consistent secondary event is the transcriptional upregulation of c-Myc, whose activity is required for transformation since its conditional ablation abrogates lymphomagenesis. In contrast, the expression of Notch receptors as well as targets is reduced in DP thymocytes with stabilized b-catenin and remains low in the lymphomas indicating that Notch activation is not required or selected for in b-catenin induced lymphomas. Thus, b-catenin activation may provide a mechanism for the induction of T-ALL that does not depend on Notch activation. Keywords: Lckcre, CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3, lymphoma, gene expression

Transcription profiling of mouse LckCre, CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mutants before and after T-cell transformation reveals stabilization of b-catenin induces lymphomas

Experiment Overall Design: This study was used to compare gene expression patterns of LckCre mice, CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mice before and after T-cell transformation. 5 independent Lckcre (control), 5 independent CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mice and 8 independent mice with lymphomas were used. Thymocytes or tumor masses were collected from Lckcre, CD4Cre-Ctnnbex3 mice. Total RNA isolation and purification followed by synthesis of dscDNA, Biotinylated cRNA and purification of Biotinylated cRNA. Then the hybridization to Affymetrix âMouse Expression Array 430 Genechipsâ was done. Data was analysed by dchip.

Expression data from Thymocytes of WT, TCF-1-deficient and β-catenin transgenic mice

Project description:Both TCF-1 and its coactivator β-catenin are known to be required for supporting normal double positive (DP) thymocyte survival through upregulating Bcl-xL. However, the downstream factors mediating this effect remained unknown. We used microarray to compare the global expression difference among WT, TCF-1-deficient, and β-catenin transgenic thymocytes to search for the genes that are down-regulated and up-regulated in TCF-1-deficient and β-catenin transgenic thymocytes, respectively. We focus on the genes that are significantly down-regulated and up-regulated in TCF-1-deficient and β-catenin transgenic thymocytes, respectively, to select for those genes that are potential target genes of β-catenin/TCF-1 pathway. And then those genes are subject to IPA pathway analysis searching for genes that are involved in thymocyte development and cell death.

Analysis of Differentially Expressed Genes in sorted CD4+ CD8+ doubl positive (DP) thymocytes from wild type (WT) and NSRP1CD4Cre (KO) mice

Project description:NSrp70 deficiency (NSRP1f/fCD4Cre) profoundly perturbed the late development of DP thymocytes, leading to a significant reduction of single positive (SP) cells in the thymus and peripheral lymphoid tissues. To gain further insight how NSrp70 controls thymocyte development from DP stage, we performed RNA-seq analysis after sorting DP thymocytes from WT and Nsrp1 cKO mice.

Expression data from tumoral thymocytes and DP thymocytes expressing an activated form of b-catenin in mouse T cells

Project description:To assess the importance of the Wnt pathway during T cell develoment, we generated a mouse line (R26-M-NM-2cat) in which high levels of active M-NM-2-catenin are maintained throughout T cell development. Young R26-M-NM-2cat mice (6-week-old) show a differentiation block at the CD4+CD8+ DP stage. All R26-M-NM-2cat mice develop T cell leukemias with a DP phenotype at 5-6 months of age. To identify the molecular pathways involved in tumor development, we profiled the global gene expression of transformed and pre-transformed DP cells. Thymocytes from 6-week-old mice (with a normal sized thymus and a polyclonal thymocyte population) were used to define the pre-transformed transcriptome. RNA from control and pre-leukemic R26-M-NM-2cat DP thymocytes as well as R26-M-NM-2cat total tumor cells were extracted and used for transcriptome analysis.

Development of Double-positive Thymocytes at Single-cell Resolution

Project description:We applied single-cell sequencing to mouse thymocytes and analyzed the transcriptome data using Seurat. By applying unsupervised clustering, we defined thymocyte subtypes and validated DP cell subtypes by flow cytometry. We classified the cell cycle phases of each cell according to expression of cell cycle phase-specific genes. For immune synapse detection, we used immunofluorescent staining and ImageStream-based flow cytometry. We studied and integrated human thymocyte data to verify the conservation of our findings and also performed cross-species comparisons to examine species-specific gene regulation. We classified blast, rearrangement and selection subtypes of DP thymocytes and used the surface markers CD2 and Ly6d to identify these subtypes by flow cytometry. Based on this new classification, we found that the proliferation of blast DP cells is quite different from that of double-positive cells and other cell types, which tend to exit the cell cycle after a single round. At the DP cell selection stage, we observed that CD8-associated immune synapses formed between thymocytes, indicating that CD8sp selection occurred among thymocytes themselves. Moreover, cross-species comparison revealed species-specific transcription factors (TFs) that contribute to the transcriptional differences of thymocytes from humans and mice. Our study classified DP thymocyte subtypes of different developmental stages and provided new insight into the development of DP thymocytes at single-cell resolution, furthering our knowledge of the fundamental immunological process of thymopoiesis.
