Description
Osteosarcomas are the most common primary malignant tumours of bone, and almost all conventional osteosarcomas are high-grade tumours showing complex genomic aberrations. We have integrated genome-wide genetic and epigenetic profiles from the EuroBoNeT panel of 19 human osteosarcoma cell lines based on microarray technologies. The cell lines showed complex patterns of DNA copy number changes, where copy number gains were significantly associated with gene-rich regions of the genome and losses with gene-poor areas. Integration of the datasets showed that the mRNA levels were regulated by either alterations in DNA copy number or DNA methylation. Using a recurrence threshold of 6/19 (> 30 %) cell lines, 348 genes were identified as having alterations of two data types (gain or hypo-methylation/over-expression, loss or hyper-methylation/under-expression). These genes are involved in embryonic skeletal system development and morphogenesis, as well as remodelling of extracellular matrix. Several genes were hyper-methylated and under-expressed compared to normal osteoblasts, and expression could be reactivated by demethylation using 5-Aza-2-deoxycytidine treatment for all four genes tested. Globally, there was as expected a significant positive association between gain and over-expression, loss and under-expression as well as hyper-methylation and under-expression, but gain was also associated with hyper-methylation and under-expression, suggesting that hyper-methylation may oppose the effects of increased copy number for some genes. Integrative analysis of genome-wide genetic and epigenetic alterations identified mechanistic dependencies and relationships between DNA copy number and DNA methylation in terms of regulating mRNA expression levels in osteosarcomas, contributing to better understanding of osteosarcoma biology.

Description
The Tesi system allows analysis of HTLV-1 Tax's impact on the transcriptome of a human CD4+ T-cell which is not derived from leukemia but directly from normal human lymphocytes. By comparing cells with and without Tax, one can specifically filter for celluar genes that are either activated or repressed in the presence of Tax.

Description
Over-expression of the Myc transcription factor causes its widespread interaction with regulatory domains in the genome, but leads to the up- and down-regulation of discrete sets of genes. The molecular determinants of these selective transcriptional responses remain elusive. Here, we present an integrated time-course analysis of transcription and mRNA dynamics following Myc activation in proliferating mouse fibroblasts, based on chromatin immunoprecipitation, metabolic labeling of newly synthesized RNA, extensive sequencing and mathematical modeling. Transcriptional activation correlated with the highest increases in Myc binding at promoters. Repression followed a reciprocal scenario, with the lowest gains in Myc binding. Altogether, the relative abundance (henceforth, “share”) of Myc at promoters was the strongest predictor of transcriptional responses in diverse cell types, predominating over Myc's association with the co-repressor Miz1. Myc activation elicited immediate loading of RNAPII at activated promoters, followed by increases in pause-release5, while repressed promoters showed opposite effects. Gains and losses in RNAPII loading were proportional to the changes in the Myc share, suggesting that repression by Myc may be largely indirect, owing - at least in part - to competition for limiting amounts of RNAPII. Secondary to the changes in RNAPII loading, the dynamics of elongation and pre-mRNA processing were also rapidly altered at Myc regulated genes, leading to the transient accumulation of partially or aberrantly processed mRNAs. Altogether, our results shed light on how over-expressed Myc alters the various phases of the RNAPII cycle and the resulting transcriptional response.

Description
Natural killer (NKT) T cells exhibit tissue distribution, surface phenotype, and functional responses that are strikingly different from those of conventional T cells. The transcription factor PLZF is responsible for most of these properties, as its ectopic expression in conventional T cells is sufficient to confer to them an NKT-like phenotype. The molecular program downstream of PLZF, however, is largely unexplored.

PLZF Controls the Expression of a Limited Number of Genes Essential for NKT Cell Function.

Description
Tumors driven by activation of the transcription factor Myc generally show oncogene addiction. However, the gene-expression programs that depend upon sustained Myc activity in those tumors remain unknown. We have addressed this issue in a model of liver carcinoma driven by a reversible tet-Myc transgene, combining gene expression profiling with the mapping of Myc and RNA Polymerase II on chromatin. Switching off the oncogene in advanced carcinomas revealed that Myc is required for the continuous activation and repression of distinct sets of genes, constituting no more than half of those deregulated during tumor progression, and an even smaller subset of all Myc-bound genes. We further showed that a Myc mutant unable to associate with the co-repressor protein Miz1 is defective in the initiation of liver tumorigenesis. Altogether, our data provide the first detailed analysis of a Myc-dependent transcriptional program in a fully developed carcinoma, revealing that the critical effectors of Myc in tumor maintenance must be included within defined subsets (ca. 1,300 each) of activated and repressed genes. Overall design: RNAseq samples of control liver (n=11), tet-Myc tumors (n=16), tet-Myc tumors with short-term Myc inactivation (n=8), tet-MycVD tumors (n=11)

Description
Human solid tumors contain rare cancer side population (SP) cells, which expel the fluorescencent dye H33342 and display cancer stem cell characteristics. Transcriptional profiling of cancer SP cells isolated by H33342 fluorescence analysis is a newly emerging approach to discover cancer stem cell markers and aberrant differentiation pathways. Using Affymetrix expression microarrays this study investigated differential gene expression between SP and non-SP (NSP) cells isolated from the CAL-51 human mammary carcinoma cell line.
