Description
Tumor ecosystems are composed of multiple cell types that communicate by ligand-receptor interactions. Targeting ligand-receptor interactions, for instance with immune check-point inhibitors, can provide significant benefit for patients. However, our knowledge of which interactions occur in a tumor and how these interactions affect outcome is still limited. We present an approach to characterize communication by ligand-receptor interactions across all cell types in a microenvironment using single-cell RNA sequencing. We apply this approach to identify and compare ligand-receptor interactions present in six syngeneic mouse tumor models. To identify interactions potentially associated with outcome, we regress interactions against phenotypic measurements of tumor growth rate. In addition, we quantify ligand-receptor interactions between T-cell subsets and their relation to immune infiltration using a publicly available human melanoma data-set. Overall, this approach provides a tool for studying cell-cell interactions, their variability across tumors, and their relationship to outcome. Overall design: We used three different types of immuno-competent inbred mouse strains: BALB/c, and A/J z. All animals enrolled in our study were 6-8 weeks old female mice that were housed in vivarium under specific pathogen free conditions in cages of up to 5 animals and receiving special rodent diet (Teklad). We implanted two mice for each syngeneic model resulting in a total of 12 samples. Each mouse tumor was harvested when the tumor size reached 100 – 200 mm3. Each sample was minced and digested with reagents from Mouse Tumor Dissociation Kit (Miltenyi) according to the manufacturer's instructions. Cells were resuspended at 2x105 cells/mL in PBS-0.04% BSA. Each sample was processed individually and run in technical duplicates. For each sample (except CT26 and MC-38) one replicate was enriched for CD45 positive cells. Live CD45 positive cells were sorted with BD Aria after staining with FITC-CD45 (Biolegend) and 7-AAD. Single cell suspensions of all samples were resuspended in PBS-0.04% BSA at 5x105 cells/mL and barcoded with a 10x Chromium Controller (10x Genomics). In total, this procedure resulted in 24 samples.

Description
Lung cancer is closely associated with chronic inflammation, but the mechanism underlying such inflammation has not been clearly defined. The lung is a mucosal tissue colonized by a diverse bacterial community at the steady state, and pulmonary infections commonly present in lung cancer patients are linked to clinical outcomes. Here we provide evidence that local microbiota provoke inflammation associated with lung adenocarcinoma by activating lung-resident gamma-delta T cells. Germ-free or antibiotic-treated mice were significantly protected from lung tumor initiation and progression induced by Kras mutation and p53 loss. Mechanistically, commensal bacteria stimulated My88-dependent IL-1beta and IL-23 production from myeloid cells, inducing proliferation and activation of V?6+Vd1+ ?d T cells that produced IL-17 and other effector molecules to promote inflammation and tumor cell proliferation. Our findings provide a clear link between local microbiota-immune crosstalk and lung tumorigenesis, and thereby define key cellular and molecular mediators that may serve as effective targets in lung cancer treatment and prevention. Overall design: ?dT cells were isolated from tumor-bearing lungs or spleens of KP mice. Their transcriptional profiles are compared with RNA-seq.

Description
The discovery of activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) regulated tooth eruption in mice and man, provides, for the first time, an early detection of tooth eruption, with full or almost full mouth of teeth at one year of age, as a potential biomarker for an intellectual disability (ID)/autism spectrum disorder (ASD) syndrome, toward improved translational medicine. Overall design: RNAseq of 4 samples, comparing three ADNP-mutated lymphoblastoid cell lines (LCLs, derived from ADNP-mutated children) with a non-mutated cell line. No replicates were performed but results were verified usign RT-PCR.

Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Array (hgu133plus2)
Description
Kaposi sarcoma is the most common cancer in AIDS patients and is typified by red skin lesions. The disease is caused by the KSHV virus (HHV8) and is recognizable by its distinctive red skin lesions. The lesions are KSHV infected spindle cells, most commonly the lymphatic endothelial and blood vessel endothelial cells (LEC and BEC), plus surrounding stroma. Here we examine KSHVs modulation of Notch signaling using wild-type LEC cells co-cultured with DLL4 and JAG1 expressing LEC cells.

Description
Transcriptomic profiling of miR-132/212-deficient and WT CD4 T cells isolated from spleens of L donovani infected mice (d28) to determine the effects of miR-132/212 on CD4 T cell activation in vivo. This was combined by transcriptomic analysis of early stage in vitro activated WT and miR-132/212-deficient CD4 T cells to identify direct miR-132/212 targets in CD4 T cells. Overall design: Examination of expression profiles of splenic CD4+ T cells from L. donovani-infected WT (samples 1-4) and miR-132/212-/- mice (samples 5-9) using RNASeq. This was followed by similar RNASeq in naïve CD4+ T-cells in WT and miR-132/212 -/- mice prior to and following 18h of in vitro TCR stimulation under Th1 conditions (samples 10-25).

Description
We have made use of the E-myc transgenic mouse, a model for the study of B-cell lymphoma development that is initiated through a defined genetic alteration, to explore the contributions of additional somatic alterations that contribute to the heterogeneity of the resulting tumors. As one example of such heterogeneity, we have focused on the observation that lymphomas develop in E-myc mice with a variable time of onset. Twenty-five early-onset, 25 late-onset lymphomas and 10 normal samples were each assayed on an Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 array.
