Description
Developmental checkpoints in stem/progenitor cells are critical to the determination, commitment and differentiation into distinct lineages. Cancer cells often retain expression of lineage-specific checkpoint proteins, but their potential impact in cancer remains elusive. T lymphocytes mature in the thymus following a highly orchestrated developmental process that entails the successive rearrangements and expression of T-cell receptor (TCR) genes. Low affinity recognition of self-peptide/MHC complexes (self-pMHC) presented by thymic epithelial cells by the TCR of CD4+CD8+ (DP) cortical thymocytes transduces positive selection signals that ultimately shape the developing T cell repertoire. DP thymocytes not receiving these signals die by lack of stimulation whereas those that recognize self-pMHC with high affinity undergo TCR-mediated apoptosis and negative selection. In T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (T-ALL), leukaemic transformation of maturating thymocytes results from the acquisition of multiple genetic and epigenetic alterations in oncogenes and tumour suppressor genes, that disrupt the normal regulatory circuits and drive clonal expansion of differentiation-arrested lymphoblasts. We show here that TCR triggering by negatively-selecting self-pMHC prevented T-ALL development and leukaemia maintenance in mice. Induction of TCR signalling by high affinity self-pMHC or treatment with monoclonal antibodies to the CD3 signalling chain (anti-CD3) caused massive leukaemic cell death and a gene expression program resembling that of thymocyte negative selection. Importantly, anti-CD3 treatment hampered leukaemogenesis in mice transplanted with either mouse or patient-derived T-ALLs. These data provide a rationale for targeted therapy based on anti-CD3 treatment of T-ALL patients and demonstrate that endogenous developmental checkpoint proteins are amenable to therapeutic intervention in cancer cells.

Description
The RNA-binding protein FUS is implicated in transcription, alternative splicing of neuronal genes and DNA repair. Mutations in FUS have been linked to human neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis). We genetically disrupted fus in zebrafish (Danio rerio) using the CRISPR-Cas9 system. The fus knockout animals are fertile and did not show any distinctive phenotype. Mutation of fus induces mild changes in gene expression on the transcriptome and proteome level in the adult brain. We observed a significant influence of genetic background on gene expression and 3’UTR usage, which could mask the effects of loss of Fus. Unlike published fus morphants, maternal zygotic fus mutants do not show motoneuronal degeneration and exhibit normal locomotor activity. Overall design: We performed paired-end sequencing (100bp reads) of the polyA+ transcriptome from brains of five individuals with Fus-/- genotype and four with Fus wild type genotype. Note on RNA-Seq replicates: after performing first RNA sequencing on four replicates of Fus-/- and WT (labeled with the prefix "Sample_imb_ketting_2014_13_") we received a notice from Illumina stating a problem with the library preparation kit lot that was used to prepare the libraries. Due to that, we performed RNA sequencing a second time, using the same input RNA, except for the Fus knockout replicate #3, because there was not enough input RNA left. Instead, a different Fus knockout replicate (#1) was sequenced. However, we compared the mapped reads from sequencing run 1 and sequencing run 2 using plotCorrelaction from DeepTools, and the samples are highly correlated (at least 0.97 and 0.95, Spearman and Pearson correlation respectively). Therefore, we considered first ("Sample_imb_ketting_2014_13_") and second sequencing runs as technical replicates.

In order to examine if the upregulation of DNA repair genes on chromosome 8 was associated with the abnormal DSB phenotype observed in trisomy 8 (defined by array CGH or cytogenetics), we compared the mRNA levels of DNA repair genes on chromosome 8 in trisomy 8 t-AML patients versus normal t-AML gammaH2AX responders using gene expression array data.

Some of the functions and mechanisms of PPAR?-mediated regulation of vascular homeostasis have been revealed, the potential role of PPAR? in angiogenesis is obscure. In human ECs, PPAR?-deficiency was studied using siRNA strategy and RNA sequencing was utilized to reveal angiogenesis-associated targets for PPARg. Overall design: Our aim is to reveal the possible role of PPARy in angiogenesis.

Description
Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the most aggressive human malignancies. In our studies, we find that the Gli transcription factors are required for Kras initiation of pancreatic tumorigenesis. In order to identify the downstream transcriptional targets of Gli in PDAC, we conducted gene expression analysis using Gli3T, a transcriptional repressor of Gli.

APCmin/+ mice develop spontaneous gastrointestinal polyposis due to a dominantly inhereited germline loss-of-function mutation in the tumor suppressor adenomatous polyposis coli (APC). Changes in intestinal immune activity have been documented to occur prior to the development of fulminate polyposis. Such changes are thought to contribute to disease development.

Description
Germ plasm, the Balbiani body and nuage are evolutionary conserved structures essential for germ cell specification and maintenance. We describe Tdrd6a as a component of these structures with two distinct molecular functions. First, Tdrd6a facilitates the accumulation of the typical antisense-bias of piRNAs, without having effects on piRNA biogenesis signatures. Second, we show that Tdrd6a is required for Balbiani body and germ plasm integrity, and associates with RNA-binding proteins and germ plasm mRNAs. On the cell-biological level, maternally contributed Tdrd6a strongly impacts germ cell formation, but is dispensable for fertility. Using single-cell RNA-sequencing we demonstrate that Tdrd6a promotes early germ cell development and regulates the stoichiometry of germ plasm mRNAs. We propose that Tdrd6a functions as a scaffold to recruit correct ratios of germ plasm transcripts and to accumulate antisense piRNA complexes in order to ensure both specification and maintenance of germ cells. Overall design: Single cell were sorted directly in Trizolfrom embryos spawned by mz tdrd6a-/- mother and wt mother carrying a kop::egfp-f-nos1-3'UTR transgene. Thereafter single cell trizol extractio was performed followed by RT, IVT and RNA-seq library prep.
