Description
The molecular etiology of uterine leiomyosarcoma (ULMS) is poorly understood, which accounts for the wide disparity in outcomes among women with this disease. We examined and compared the molecular profiles of ULMS, fibroids, and normal myometrium (NL) to identify clinically relevant molecular subtypes. RNA was hybridized to Affymetrix U133A 2.0 transcription microarrays. Differentially expressed genes and pathways were identified using standard methods.

Description
Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2) mutations drive the development of gliomas and other human malignancies. Significant efforts are already underway to attempt to target mutant IDH in clinical trials. However, how mutation of IDH leads to tumorigenesis is poorly understood. Mutant IDH1 promotes epigenetic changes that promote tumorigenesis but the scale of these changes throughout the epigenome and the reversibility of these changes are unknown. Here, using both human astrocyte and glioma tumorsphere systems, we generate a large-scale atlas of mutant IDH1-induced epigenomic reprogramming. We characterize the changes in the histone code landscape, DNA methylome, chromatin state, and transcriptional reprogramming that occur following IDH1 mutation and characterize the kinetics and reversibility of these alterations over time. We discover coordinate changes in the localization and intensity of multiple histone marks and chromatin states throughout the genome. These alterations result in systematic chromatin states changes, which result in widespread gene expression changes involving oncogenic pathways. Specifically, mutant IDH1 drives alterations in differentiation state and establishes a CD24+ population that features enhanced self-renewal and other stem-like properties. Strikingly, prolonged exposure to mutant IDH1 results in irreversible genomic and epigenetic alterations. Together, these observations provide unprecedented molecular portraits of mutant IDH1-dependent epigenomic reprogramming at high resolution. These findings have significant implications for our understanding the mechanisms underlying mutant IDH function and for optimizing therapeutic approaches to targeting IDH mutant tumors.

Description
Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) have emerged as prominent cells within the tumor microenvironment playing critical roles in extracellular matrix remodeling, tumor cell proliferation and invasion, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Cathepsin proteases, produced by tumor cells and TAMs, have been demonstrated to mediate these processes, but it still remains unclear how these typically lysosomal enzymes are capable of executing their functions in the extracellular space. Here we identify a novel interaction between STAT6 and STAT3 that potently upregulates cathepsin secretion in macrophages in response to TH2 cytokine stimulation. Systematic gene expression analyses reveal that the TH2 cytokine IL-4 synergizes with IL-6 or IL-10 to activate the IRE1/ XBP1 axis of the unfolded protein response. Pharmacological inhibition of the IRE1 axis blunts cathepsin secretion in macrophages and blocks macrophage-mediated tumor cell invasion. Finally, we show that genetic ablation of either STAT6 or STAT3 signaling impairs tumor development and invasion. Thus, these findings demonstrate that TH2 cytokine-mediated STAT6 and STAT3 activation in macrophages promotes a professional secretory phenotype capable of enhancing tumor cell invasion in a cathepsin-dependent manner.

Description
Resistance to tamoxifen in breast cancer patients is a serious therapeutic problem and major efforts are underway to understand underlying mechanisms. Resistance can be either intrinsic or acquired. We derived a series of subcloned MCF7 cell lines that were either highly sensitive or naturally resistant to tamoxifen and studied the factors that lead to drug resistance. Gene-expression studies revealed a signature of 67 genes that differentially respond to tamoxifen in sensitive vs. resistant subclones, which also predicts disease-free survival in tamoxifen-treated patients. High-throughput cell-based screens, in which >500 human kinases were independently ectopically expressed, identified 31 kinases that conferred drug resistance on sensitive cells. One of these, HSPB8, was also in the expression signature and, by itself, predicted poor clinical outcome in one cohort of patients. Further studies revealed that HSPB8 protected MCF7 cells from tamoxifen and blocked autophagy. Moreover, silencing HSBP8 induced autophagy and caused cell death. Tamoxifen itself induced autophagy in sensitive cells but not in resistant ones, and tamoxifen-resistant cells were sensitive to the induction of autophagy by other drugs. These results may point to an important role for autophagy in the sensitivity to tamoxifen.
