Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
The IFN type I signature is present in over half of primary Sjgrens syndrome (pSS) patients and associated with higher disease-activity and autoantibody presence. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are considered to be the source of enhanced IFN type I expression. The objective of this study was to unravel the molecular pathways underlying IFN type I bioactivity in pDCs of pSS patients.

Description
Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) in infants (<1 year) is characterized by a poor prognosis and a high incidence of MLL translocations. Several studies demonstrated the unique gene expression profile associated with MLL-rearranged ALL, but generally small cohorts were analyzed as uniform patient groups regardless of the type of MLL translocation, while the analysis of translocation-negative infant ALL remained unacknowledged.

Description
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disease with complex heterogeneity and aberrations in multiple levels of neurobiology. Recently, our understanding of the molecular abnormalities in ASD has been greatly expanded through transcriptomic analyses of postmortem brains. However, a crucial molecular pathway involved in synaptic development, RNA editing, has not yet been studied on a genome-wide scale. Here we profiled the global patterns of adenosine-to-inosine (A-to-I) editing in a large cohort of ASD cortices and cerebella. Strikingly, we observed a global bias of hypoediting in ASD brains, common to different brain regions and involving many genes with critical neurological function. The large-scale RNA editing changes allowed us to reveal novel insights of RNA editing regulation. Through genome-wide protein-RNA binding analyses and detailed molecular assays, we show that the Fragile X proteins, FMRP and FXR1P, interact with ADAR protens and modulate A-to-I editing. Furthermore, we observed convergent patterns of RNA editing alterations between ASD and Fragile X syndrome, thus establishing RNA editing as a novel molecular link underlying these two highly related diseases. Our findings support a role for RNA editing dysregulation in ASD pathophysiology and highlight novel mechanisms for RNA editing regulation. Overall design: RNA-seq to examine RNA editing in Fragile X patients

Description
Cancer metabolism has been actively studied to gain insights into tumorigenic survival mechanisms and susceptibilities. In melanoma, we identify HEXIM1, a transcription elongation regulator, as a novel melanoma suppressor that participates in nucleotide stress regulation. HEXIM1 expression is low in melanoma. Its overexpression suppresses melanoma while its inactivation accelerates tumor onset in vivo. HEXIM1 responds to nucleotide stress. Knockdown of HEXIM1 rescues neural crest and melanoma nucleotide stress phenotypes in vivo. Mechanistically, under nucleotide stress, HEXIM1 is induced to form an inhibitory complex with P-TEFb, the kinase that initiates transcription elongation, to pause transcription at tumorigenic genes. The resulting alteration in gene expression also causes anti-tumorigenic transcripts to bind to and be stabilized by HEXIM1. HEXIM1 therefore plays an important role in inhibiting cancer cell-specific gene transcription while also facilitating anti-cancer gene expression. Our study reveals a novel role for HEXIM1 in coupling nucleotide metabolism with transcriptional regulation in melanoma. Overall design: RNA-seq analysis of human A375 melanoma cells treated with either DMSO or 25 µM A771726 for 0-72 hrs.

Description
Medulloblastoma is the most common malignant pediatric brain tumor, and mechanisms underlying its development are poorly understood. We identified recurrent amplification of the miR-17/92 polycistron proto-oncogene in 6% of pediatric medulloblastomas by high-resolution single-nucleotide polymorphism genotyping arrays and subsequent interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization on a human medulloblastoma tissue microarray. Profiling the expression of 427 mature microRNAs (miRNA) in a series of 90 primary human medulloblastomas revealed that components of the miR-17/92 polycistron are the most highly up-regulated miRNAs in medulloblastoma. Expression of miR-17/92 was highest in the subgroup of medulloblastomas associated with activation of the sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling pathway compared with other subgroups of medulloblastoma. Medulloblastomas in which miR-17/92 was up-regulated also had elevated levels of MYC/MYCN expression. Consistent with its regulation by Shh, we observed that Shh treatment of primary cerebellar granule neuron precursors (CGNP), proposed cells of origin for the Shh-associated medulloblastomas, resulted in increased miR-17/92 expression. In CGNPs, the Shh effector N-myc, but not Gli1, induced miR-17/92 expression. Ectopic miR-17/92 expression in CGNPs synergized with exogenous Shh to increase proliferation and also enabled them to proliferate in the absence of Shh. We conclude that miR-17/92 is a positive effector of Shh-mediated proliferation and that aberrant expression/amplification of this miR confers a growth advantage to medulloblastomas.
