Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 Array (mouse4302)
Description
We are examining the genes that control initiation and progression of murine medulloblastomas that result from loss of patched. Approximately 25% of human medulloblastomas have mutations in patched or in other elements of the sonic hedgehog pathway. However, the cells from which these tumors originate (neural progenitors or stem cells), the cells that are responsible for tumor propagation (cancer stem cells), and the genes that are required for tumor progression are poorly understood. To address these questions, we have developed conditional patched knockout mice in which the gene is deleted in neural stem cells or progenitors. In addition, we have isolated a population of tumor-propagating cells from these tumors. By studying these models we will gain insight into the mechanisms of tumorigenesis and identify new targets for therapy.

Description
Purpose: Identify whole lung gene expression patterns in a house dust mite model of mild/moderate asthma Methods: Lung gene expression profiles of 10 week old BALB/c female mice were generated by ribosome-depleted, 150 nt, paired-end, stranded RNA-seq with Illumina HiSeq v4. Sequence reads that passed quality filters after trimming were analyzed with Sailfish-cir to identify linear RNAs and circular RNAs. Differential expression of linear RNAs was assessed with Deseq2 . QRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green methods. Results: 100 million sequence reads per sample were mapped to the mouse genome (build mm10) using Sailfish-cir to identify linear and circular RNA transcripts. Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes identified upregulation of gene sets for human asthma, mouse lung allergic inflammation, Muc5ac regulated genes and smooth muscle genes after allergic sensitization. Gene level exppression in each asthma-related pathway was reduced by the miR-145 antagonist. The miR-145 antagonist and several nontargeting oligos also upregulated interferon signaling pathways suggesting a general antiinflammatory effect of LNA/DNA oligos in the lung. Conclusions: Lung-directed delivery of LNA/DNA oligonucleotides with cationic lipid nanoparticles is an efffective means to prevent inflammatory gene expression in a house dust mite model of mild/moderate asthma. Overall design: Linear and circular RNA transcript expression was compared in whole lung tissue from unsensitized, house dust mite sensitzed, antimiR-145 treated treated mice

Purpose: Identify whole lung gene expression patterns modified by nanoparticle delivery of an antisense LNA/DNA oligonucleotide targeting mmu-miR145a-5p and nontargeting oligonucleotides Methods: Lung gene expression profiles of 10 week old BALB/c female mice were generated by polyA RNA-seq with Illumina HiSeq v4. Sequence reads that passed quality filters after timming were analyzed at the gene level with RNA STAR, featureCounts and Deseq2 . qRT–PCR validation was performed using TaqMan and SYBR Green methods. Results: 10-15 million sequence reads per sample were mapped to the mouse genome (build mm10). Pathway analysis of differentially expressed genes identified upregulation of gene sets for human asthma, mouse lung allergic inflammation, Muc5ac regulated genes and smooth muscle genes after allergic sensitization. Gene level exppression in each asthma-related pathway was reduced by the miR-145 antagonist.

Description
Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is an incurable pediatric brain tumor, resulting in the death of 200-300 children each year in the United States. Recently it was discovered that approximately 25% of all DIPG cases harbor activating mutations in ACVR1, a gene that encodes Activin A receptor (ALK2), a receptor in the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) pathway, and that DIPGs with ALK2 mutations commonly harbor an H3.1K27M mutation. Herein, we used the RCAS/TVA retroviral system to study the effects of ACVR1 mutations and H3.1K27M on DIPG pathogenesis. In vitro expression of R206H ACVR1 with and without H3.1K27M in nestin-expressing brainstem progenitors resulted in upregulation of mesenchymal markers and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) revealed Stat3 pathway activation. Neonatal expression of ACVR1 R206H or G328V in combination with H3.1K27M and p53 deletion in nestin-expressing brainstem progenitors induced glioma-like lesions expressing mesenchymal markers with Stat3 activation but was not sufficient for full gliomagenesis. In combination with platelet-derived growth factor A (PDGFA) signaling, ACVR1 R206H and H3.1K27M significantly decreased survival and increased tumor incidence. We demonstrate that targeting the BMP signaling pathway may be an effective therapeutic strategy to treat ACVR1 R206H mutant DIPGs. Exogenous Noggin expression at tumor initiation significantly increased tumor latency and treatment of ACVR1 R206H mutant murine DIPGs with LDN212854, an ACVR1 inhibitor, significantly prolonged their survival. We confirm relevance of our model to the human disease as human DIPG models with ACVR1 mutations were also sensitive to treatment with LDN212854 in vitro. Altogether, our studies demonstrate that ACVR1 R206H and H3.1K27M promote tumor initiation, accelerate gliomagenesis, promote a mesenchymal profile in part due to Stat3 activation, and identify LDN212854 as a promising compound to treat children with DIPG. Overall design: We use RNAseq to study the transcriptomal effects of ACVR1 WT or R206H ACVR1 mutation alone and in combination with H3.1K27M mutation on murine nestin-expressing brainstem progenitors at P3-5 (using RCAS/TVA). Key findings were validated by Real-Time PCR.

Description
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and aggressive primary brain tumor in adults, with glioma initiating cells (GICs) implicated to be critical for tumor progression and resistance to therapy. KDM1B is involved in regulating GICs'' responses to hypoxia, since over-expression of KDM1B delays the cell growth under hypoxia while knocking-down of KDM1B in GICs promotes their survival and tumorigenic abilities. Overall design: We used RNA-Sequencing to detail the global change of gene expression in GICs with knockdown of KDM1B, and identified de-regulated genes and pathways downstream of KDM1B. CD133+ D456MG GICs were infected with non-targeting control and shRNA of KDM1B. Then RNA was extracted and gene expression was profiled by RNA-Seq.
