Description
Substantial effort is currently devoted to identifying cancer-associated alterations using genomics. Here, we show that standard blood collection procedures rapidly change the transcriptional and post-transcriptional landscapes of hematopoietic cells, resulting in biased activation of specific biological pathways, up-regulation of pseudogenes, antisense RNAs, and unannotated coding isoforms, and RNA surveillance inhibition. Affected genes include common mutational targets and thousands of other genes participating in processes such as chromatin modification, RNA splicing, T and B cell activation, and NF-?B signaling. The majority of published leukemic transcriptomes exhibit signals of this incubation-induced dysregulation, explaining up to 40% of differences in gene expression and alternative splicing between leukemias and reference normal transcriptomes. The effects of sample processing are particularly evident in pan-cancer analyses. We provide biomarkers that detect prolonged incubation of individual samples, and show that keeping blood on ice markedly reduces changes to the transcriptome. In addition to highlighting the potentially confounding effects of technical artifacts in cancer genomics data, our study emphasizes the need to survey the diversity of normal as well as neoplastic cells when characterizing tumors. This study is complemented by GSE61410: transcriptomic profiling of bone marrow cells from healthy individuals. Overall design: Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from four healthy individuals, following an ex vivo incubation of variable length at either room temperature or on ice. RNA transcriptomes were measured using the Illumina HiSeq.

Description
Genes and pathways in which inactivation dampens tissue inflammation present new opportunities for understanding the pathogenesis of common human inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis and multiple sclerosis. We identified a mutation in the gene encoding the deubiquitination enzyme USP15 (Usp15L749R) that protected mice against both experimental cerebral malaria (ECM) induced by Plasmodium berghei and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Combining immunophenotyping and RNA sequencing in brain (ECM) and spinal cord (EAE) revealed that Usp15L749R-associated resistance to neuroinflammation was linked to dampened type I interferon responses in situ. In hematopoietic cells and in resident brain cells, USP15 was coexpressed with, and functionally acted together with the E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM25 to positively regulate type I interferon responses and to promote pathogenesis during neuroinflammation. The USP15-TRIM25 dyad might be a potential target for intervention in acute or chronic states of neuroinflammation. Overall design: Sequencing of RNA extracted from target tissue in two experimental neuroinflammation models in wild-type (B6), USP15(L749R) and Trim25 KO mutant mice: (1) brains at day 3 and 5 following Plasmodium berghei ANKA (PbA) infection for the cerebral malaria model (ECM); and (2) spinal cords at day 7 following induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) for B6 and Usp15 mutant mice only.

Description
Prospective series of 136 clinical monoclonal B lymphocytosis (cMBL) and 216 chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) Rai 0 patients, were investigated in this study. While the distribution of CD38 and ZAP-70 positivity was similar, IGHV-mutated cases were more frequent among cMBL (P = 0.005). A Cox multivariate analysis on the whole patient cohort showed that cMBL condition was predictive of longer PFS, while CD38 expression and IGHV-unmutated status and CD38 expression correlated significantly with a shorter PFS in cMBL and Rai0-CLL, respectively. Trisomy 12, 11q- and 17p- abnormalities were scanty and of no predictive value in both conditions. Notably, gene and miRNA expression profiling showed no significant differences between cMBL and Rai0-CLL. Furthermore, similar gene and miRNA expression signatures were found in cMBL and Rai0-CLL according to the IGHV gene mutational status: that is, unmutated cases had different signatures from mutated cases, irrespectively of the cMBL or CLL condition. Overall, our study based on a prospective series of patients indicates that no major biological differences exist in cMBL compared to Rai0-CLL, suggesting that this two entities mainly differ for the initial size of the monoclonal cell population which may reflect in the longer time for clonal expansion.

Description
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a clinically heterogeneous disease characterized by chromosomal aberrations of prognostic significance. Recent studies showed that gain of chromosome 2p is a recurrent lesion in CLL. We investigated the 2p gain and its relationship with prognostic biomarkers in a prospective series of 287 early-stage CLLs (Binet A). The 2p gain was detected by FISH in 17 patients (6%) and further characterized by single nucleotide polymorphism-array. Overall, unfavorable cytogenetic deletions, i.e. del(11)(q23) and del(17)(p13) (P=0.002) as well as unmutated (UM) status of IGHV (P<110-4) and CD38 (P<110-4) and ZAP-70 positive expression (P=0.003) were significantly more prevalent in 2p gain cases. Furthermore, 2p gained patients showed a significantly higher occurrence of stereotyped HCDR3 sequences compared to 2p normal CLLs (P=0.009). Among the stereotyped subsets, the incidence of subset #1 in 2p positive patients was significantly higher than that found in the remaining CLLs (P=0.031). Finally, gene expression profiling analysis identified a number of genes significantly upregulated in 2p gain CLLs. Among those located at 2p, NCOA1 and ROCK2 are known for their involvement in tumor progression in several human cancers, whereas among those located in different chromosomes, CAV1 at 7q31.1 has been recently identified to play a critical role in CLL progression. Our study indicates that 2p gain is a recurrent lesion in early CLL, correlated with the major biological and cytogenetic risk markers of the disease. Moreover, we provide insights to define novel candidate genes that may play additional pathogenetic roles in CLL.
