Affymetrix HT HG-U133+ PM Array Plate (hthgu133pluspm)
Description
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a heterogeneous disease classified into four consensus molecular subtype (CMSs) with distinct biological and clinical features. This study aims to understand the value of patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) in relation to these CMSs. A total of 42 primary tumors, recurrences and metastases were used to develop PDXs. Detailed genetic analyses were performed on PDXs and corresponding patient tumors to determine relationship and PDX heterogeneity. Out of 42 tumors 22 (52%) showed successfully PDX engraftment, which was biased towards metastases and CMS1 and CMS4 tumors. Importantly, gene expression analysis revealed a clinical relevant association between an engraftment gene signature and prognosis for stage II patients. Moreover, this gene signature revealed an association between Src pathway activation and positive engraftment. Src pathway activity co-aligned with CMS4 and the levels of fibronectin in tumors and was confirmed by pSrc immunohistochemistry. From this analysis we further deduced that decreased cell cycle activity is a prognostic factor for successful engraftment and related to patient prognosis. However, this is not a general phenomenon, but subtype specific as decreased cell cycle activity was highly prognostic for recurrence-free survival within CMS2 but not in CMS1 and CMS4, while it showed an inverse correlation in CMS3. These data illustrate that CRC PDX establishment is biased toward CMS1 and CMS4, which impacts translation of results derived from pre-clinical studies using PDXs. Moreover, our analysis reveals subtype-specific features, pSrc in CMS4 and low Ki67 in CMS2, which provide novel avenues for therapy and diagnosis.

Description
Whether the nuclear fraction of mTOR plays a role in prostate cancer (PCa) and can participate in direct transcriptional crosstalk with the androgen receptor (AR) is as yet unknown. The intersection of gene expression, DNA binding-events, and metabolic studies uncovered the existence of a nuclear mTOR-AR transcriptional axis dictating the metabolic rewiring and nutrient usage of PCa cells. In human clinical specimens, nuclear localization of mTOR was significantly associated with metastasis and castration-resistant PCa (CRPC), correlating with a sustained metabolic gene program governed by mTOR in that context. This study thus uncovers an unexpected function of mTOR and underscores a paradigm shift from AR to mTOR as being the master transcriptional regulator of cell metabolism during PCa progression.

Description
In order to identify genes regulated by long noncoding RNA H19 in the ovary, we performed RNA-Seq with WT and H19KO ovaries from 8-week old mice. Among the differentially expressed genes, we found anti-mullerian hormone (AMH), which potentially plays an important role in regulating ovarian follicular development, might be a target of H19 mediated regulation. Overall design: Ovaries were harvested from 8-week old WT and H19KO mice, followed by total RNA extraction, library preparation and RNA-seq analysis to compare gene expression profiles between WT and H19KO conditions.
