Description
Intestinal organoids are complex three-dimensional structures that mimic cell type composition and tissue organization of the intestine by recapitulating the self-organizing capacity of cell populations derived from a single stem cell. Crucial in this process is a first symmetry-breaking event, in which only a fraction of identical cells in a symmetrical cyst differentiate into Paneth cells, which in turn generates the stem cell niche and leads to asymmetric structures such as crypts and villi. We here combine a quantitative single-cell gene expression and imaging approach to characterize the development of intestinal organoids from a single cell. We show that intestinal organoid development follows a regeneration process driven by transient Yap1 activation. Cell-to-cell variability in Yap1, emerging in symmetrical cysts, initiates a Notch/Dll1 lateral inhibition event driving the symmetry-breaking event and the formation of the first Paneth cell. Our findings reveal how single cells exposed to a uniform growth-promoting environment have the intrinsic ability to generate emergent, self-organized behavior resulting in the formation of complex multicellular asymmetric structures. Overall design: Single cell RNA sequencing of single cells isolated from intestinal organoids day3 and intestinal organoids day 5

Description
Somatic mutation in the X-linked phosphatidylinositol glycan class A (PIG-A) gene causes glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor deficiency in humans with Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria (PNH). Clinically, patients with PNH have intravascular hemolysis, venous thrombosis and bone marrow failure. We produced a conditional Pig-a knock-out mouse model specifically inactivating the Pig-a gene in hematopoietic cells to study the role of PIG-A deficiency in PNH pathophysiology. We used Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 chips to investigate the gene expression pattern in the mouse model of targeted Pig-a deletion.

Description
Autophagy plays important roles in malignant pathogenesis and drug resistance. We used medicinal chemistry approaches to generate a series of novel agents that inhibit autophagic degradation. ROC-325 was selected as a lead compound for further evaluation. Comprehensive in vitro and in vivo studies were conducted to evaluate the selectivity, tolerability, and efficacy of ROC-325 in preclinical models of renal cell carcinoma (RCC). ROC-325 exhibited superior in vitro anticancer effects than the existing autophagy inhibitor hydroxychloroquine in 12 different tumor models with diverse genetic backgrounds. Focused studies of the mechanism of action and efficacy of ROC-325 in RCC cells showed that drug treatment induced hallmark characteristics of autophagy inhibition including accumulation of autophagosomes with undegraded cargo, lysosomal deacidification, p62 stabilization, and disruption of autophagic flux. Subsequent experiments showed that ROC-325 antagonized RCC growth and survival in an ATG5/7-dependent manner, induced apoptosis, and exhibited favorable selectivity. Oral administration of ROC-325 to mice bearing 786-0 RCC xenografts was well tolerated, significantly more effective at inhibiting tumor progression than HCQ, and inhibited autophagy in vivo.

Description
Therapeutic targeting of BRAFV600Eand of MEK has shown a significant impact on progression-free and overall survival in advanced melanoma, but only a fraction of patients benefit from these treatments, suggesting that additional signaling pathways involved in melanoma growth/survival need to be identified. To this end, we used whole genome microarray analysis to identify differentially expressed genes in a set of neoplastic clones, isolated from a single melanoma metastasis, and characterized by mututally exclusive expression of BRAFV600E or NRASQ61R. By this approach we identified two genes, SEMA6A and Mical-1 belonging to the semaphorin-plexin signaling pathway and higly expressed, at mRNA and protein level, in BRAF-mutant neoplastic clones. Real-time PCR, Western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry confirmed the preferential expression of SEMA-6A and Mical-1 in BRAFV600E neoplastic cells from melanoma clones, primary and metastatic cell lines and tissue sections from melanoma lesions. SEMA6A depletion, by specific RNA-interference experiments, led to cytoskeletal remodeling, loss of stress fibers, generation of actin-rich protrusion, and cell death, whereas SEMA6A overexpression, in NRASQ61R clones, promoted invasiveness. Mical-1 depletion, by siRNA, in BRAFV600E melanomas, did not alter the actin cytoskeleton organization but caused a strong NDR phosphorylation and NDR-dependent apoptosis. Overall, these results suggest that the SEMA and MICAL pathways contribute to promote survival of BRAFV600E melanomas.
