Description
Chromosome 5q deletions (del(5q)) are common in high-risk (HR) Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML); however, the gene regulatory networks that sustain these aggressive diseases are unknown. Reduced miR-146a expression in del(5q) HR-MDS/AML and miR-146a-/- hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPC) results in TRAF6/NF- activation. Increased survival and proliferation of HSPC from miR-146alow HR-MDS/AML is sustained by a neighboring haploid gene, SQSTM1 (p62), expressed from the intact 5q allele. Overexpression of p62 from the intact allele occurs through NF-B-dependent feedforward signaling mediated by miR-146a deficiency. p62 is necessary for TRAF6-mediated NF-B signaling, as disrupting the p62-TRAF6 signaling complex results in cell cycle arrest and apoptosis of MDS/AML cells. Thus, del(5q) HR-MDS/AML employs an intrachromosomal gene network involving loss of miR-146a and haploid overexpression of p62 via NF-B to sustain TRAF6/NF-B signaling for cell survival and proliferation. Interfering with the p62-TRAF6 signaling complex represents a therapeutic option in miR-146a-deficient and aggressive del(5q) MDS/AML.

Description
Bortezomib (Velcade) is widely used for the treatment of various human cancers, however, its mechanisms of action are not fully understood, particularly in myeloid malignancies. Bortezomib is a selective and reversible inhibitor of the proteasome. Paradoxically, we find that Bortezomib induces proteasome-independent degradation of TRAF6 protein, but not mRNA, in Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) cell lines and primary cells. The reduction in TRAF6 protein coincides with Bortezomib-induced autophagy, and subsequently with apoptosis in MDS/AML cells. RNAi-mediated knockdown of TRAF6 sensitized Bortezomib-sensitive and -resistant cell lines, underscoring the importance of TRAF6 in Bortezomib-induced cytotoxicity. Bortezomib-resistant cells expressing an shRNA targeting TRAF6 were resensitized to the cytotoxic effects of Bortezomib due to down-regulation of the proteasomal subunit alpha-1 (PSMA1). To uncover the molecular consequences following loss of TRAF6 in MDS/AML cells, we applied gene expression profiling and identified an apoptosis gene signature. Knockdown of TRAF6 in MDS/AML cell lines or patient samples resulted in rapid apoptosis and impaired malignant hematopoietic stem/progenitor function. In summary, we describe novel mechanisms by which TRAF6 is regulated through Bortezomib/autophagy-mediated degradation and by which it alters MDS/AML sensitivity to Bortezomib by controlling PSMA1 expression.

Description
The nuclear factor-kB (NF-kB) family of transcription factors is important for hematopoietic function, including development, maintenance, and differentiation of different hematopoietic lineages in response to cytokines and infection. Although ligand-independent or basal NF-kB signaling is required for HSC homeostasis in the absence of inflammation, the upstream tonic mediators of NF-kB signaling are not known. Herein we describe TNF receptor associated factor 6 (TRAF6) as an essential regulator of HSC homeostasis by preserving self-renewal and quiescence through basal activation of NF-kB. Hematopoietic-specific deletion of Traf6 resulted in impaired HSC self-renewal and fitness. Gene expression, RNA splicing, and molecular analyses of Traf6-deficient HSPC revealed changes in adaptive immune signaling, innate immune signaling, and NF-kB signaling, indicating that signaling via TRAF6 in the absence of cytokine stimulation and/or infection occurs in HSPC and is required for HSC function. In addition, we established that loss of NF-kB signaling is responsible for the major hematopoietic defects observed in Traf6-deficient HSPC as deletion of IKKb similarly resulted in impaired HSC self-renewal and fitness. Taken together, our observations position TRAF6 as an essential regulator of HSC homeostasis by maintaining a minimal threshold level of IKKb/NF-kB signaling. Overall design: Hematopoietic stem and progenitor cell (HSPC)-enriched lineage-Sca1+Kit+ (LSK) cells were sorted from mice reconstituted with Vav-Cre+ and Traf6-/-;Vav-Cre+ bone marrow cells. Total RNA was extracted from LSK cells and purified with Quick-RNA MiniPrep Kit (Zymogen). RNA quality was determined using the Agilent Bioanalyzer 2100 (Hewelett Packard). 100 ng total RNA was used for enrichment of poly A RNA with the Apollo 324 (WaferGen, Fremont, CA). Poly A RNA was further fragmented (RNase III), adaptor-ligated, and reverse transcribed (Superscript III reverse transcriptase, Lifetech, Grand Island, NY), followed by purification using Agencourt AMPure XP beads (Beckman Coulter, Indianapolis IN). To prepare libraries, universal and index-specific primers, and sample-specific index were added to each adaptor-ligated cDNA sample to amplify the library, followed by purification using AMPure XP beads. The quality and yield of the libraries were assessed on the Bioanalyzer (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA). Libraries at the final concentration of 15 pM were clustered onto a PE flow cell using Illumina''s TruSeq PE Cluster kit v3, and sequenced using TruSeq SBS kit on the Illumina HiSeq system. To study differential gene expression, individually indexed libraries were proportionally pooled (20-50 million reads per sample in general) for clustering in cBot system (Illumina, San Diego, CA). Libraries at the final concentration of 15 pM were clustered onto a single read (SR) flow cell using Illumina's TruSeq SR Cluster kit v3, and sequenced for 50 bp using TruSeq SBS kit on Illumina HiSeq system.

Description
Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) have been implicated in human pathology, however, their roles in colorectal carcinogenesis has not been fully elucidated. In the current study, whole-transcriptome was analyzed in 3 pairs of colorectal cancer (CRC) and matched normal mucosa (NM) by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq). Followed by confirmation using the Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) dataset, we identified 27 up-regulated and 22 down-regulated lncRNAs in CRC. Up-regulation of four lncRNAs, hereby named colorectal cancer associated lncRNA (CRCAL)-1 [AC021218.2], CRCAL-2 [LINC00858], CRCAL-3 [RP11-138J23.1] and CRCAL-4 [RP11-435O5.2], was further validated by real-time RT-PCR in 139 colorectal neoplasms and matched NM tissues. Knockdown of CRCAL-3 and CRCAL-4 in colon cancer cells reduced cell viability and colony formation ability, and induced cell cycle arrest. TCGA dataset supported the associations of CRCAL-3 and CRCAL-4 with cell cycle and revealed a co-expression network comprising dysregulated lncRNAs associated with protein-coding genes. In conclusion, RNA-seq identified numbers of novel lncRNAs dysregulated in CRC. In vitro experiments and GO term enrichment analysis indicated the functional relevance of CRCAL-3 and CRCAL-4 in association with cell cycle. Our data highlight the capability of RNA-seq to discover novel lncRNAs involved in human carcinogenesis, which may serve as alternative biomarkers and/or molecular treatment targets. Overall design: 6 total samples consisting of 3 matched pairs of colorectal cancer (CRC) and matched normal mucosa (NM)

Description
Lineage tracing provides unprecedented insights into the fate of individual cells and their progeny in complex organisms. While effective genetic approaches have been developed in vitro and in animal models, these cannot be used to interrogate human physiology in vivo. Instead, naturally occurring somatic mutations have been utilized to infer clonality and lineal relationships between cells in human tissues, but current approaches are limited by high error rates and scale, and provide little information about the state or function of the cells. Here, we show how somatic mutations in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) can be tracked by current single cell RNA-Seq (scRNA-Seq) or single cell ATAC-Seq (scATAC-Seq) for simultaneous analysis of single cell lineage and state. We leverage somatic mtDNA mutations as natural genetic barcodes and demonstrate their use as clonal markers to infer lineal relationships. We trace the lineage of human cells by somatic mtDNA mutations in a native context both in vitro and in vivo, and relate it to expression profiles and chromatin accessibility. Our approach should allow lineage tracing at a 100- to 1,000-fold greater scale than with single cell whole genome sequencing, while providing information on cell state, opening the way to chart detailed cell lineage and fate maps in human health and disease. Overall design: A population of 25 transfected TF1 cells were expanded and forwarded to a combination of 1) ATAC-seq and single cell RNA-seq. The single-cell RNA-seq data are listed here. Meta data includes heteroplasmic variant information per cell as well as the group assigned based on the lentiviral barcoding
