Description
c-Fos, a member of the stress-activated Activator Protein 1 (AP-1) transcription factor family, is expressed in human hepatocellular cancer (HCC). Using genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) we show that hepatocyte-specific expression of c-Fos leads to a proliferative, de-differentiated phenotype, whereas hepatocyte-specific deletion of c-Fos protects against diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced liver cancer. Furthermore, c-Fos-expressing livers resemble human HCCs based on expression profiles. In the present RNA seq, we intend to analyze the transcriptomic profile of livers at 2 and 4 mo hepatocyte-specific c-Fos expression compared to the corresponding age-matched control mice. Moreover, we analyzed livers of mice with hepatocyte-specific deletion c-Fos at 48h after DEN treatment compared to identically treated control mice. Overall design: The general idea was to analyze the transcriptomic profile of hepatocyte-specific c-Fos over-expressing livers at 2 and 4 mo expression. Hereby, a hepatocyte-specific doxycycline (Dox)-switchable mouse model was (LAP-tTA; col1a1:Tet-O-fosFlag) was generated and c-Fos expression was induced at the age of 3 weeks by removal of doxycycline. Each sample LaptTA-fos-MUT represents an individual hepatocyte-specific c-fos expressing mouse at the indicated time-point and the corresponding identically treated control mouse LaptTA-fos-CO. Moreover, the transcriptomic profile of livers with hepatocyte-specific deletion of c-Fos at 48h after diethylnitrosamine (DEN)-induced liver cancer initiation was analyzed. For hepatocyte-specific knock-out of c-Fos, mice with conditional alleles of c-fos and the Alfp-Cre transgene were used. Control mice only carried the Alfp-Cre transgene. At the age of 8 weeks these mice were injected with 100mg/kg DEN. Each sample AlfpCre-fos-MUT_DEN represents an individual hepatocyte-specific c-fos knock-out mouse 48h after DEN and the identically treated control mouse AlfpCre-fos-CO-Cre+_DEN.

Description
Abstract: Choline is an essential nutrient and methyl donor required for epigenetic regulation. Here, we assess the impact of gut microbial choline metabolism on bacterial fitness and host biology by engineering a microbial community to lack a single choline-utilizing enzyme. Our results indicate that choline-utilizing bacteria compete with the host for this nutrient, significantly impacting plasma and hepatic levels of methyl-donor metabolites recapitulating biochemical signatures of choline deficiency. Mice harboring high levels of choline-consuming bacteria show increased susceptibility to metabolic disease. Furthermore, bacterially-induced reduction of methyl-donor availability alters global DNA methylation patterns in both adult mice and their offspring in utero and engenders anxious behavior. Altogether, our results reveal an underappreciated aspect of bacterial choline metabolism (i.e., methyl-donor depletion) that is linked to alterations in metabolism, epigenetics, and behavior. More broadly, this work suggests that interpersonal differences in microbial metabolism should be considered when determining optimal levels of nutrient intake. Overall design: 8 samples in total (biological n=4 per for each defined community; 9kw old female C57BL/6 mouse liver; 2 weeks of colonization and maintenance on 1% choline diet; 4hours of fasting prior to sacrifice)

Description
Whsc1 gene codes for a SET domain-containing H3K36 dimethylase, whose activity has been suggested, in ex vivo cell culture experiments, to control many aspects of DNA and RNA processing (replication, repair, transcription, etc). Its precise function in vivo is still unclear. Here, we use RNA-seq transcriptome analysis to study the changes in gene expression in the absence of Whsc1. Our results show that, in the experimental system used, loss of Whsc1 caused massive changes in genes affecting many fundamental cellular processes, from cell cycle to ribosome synthesis, DNA repair, replication, etc. Overall design: Whsc1-KO mice are embryonic lethal. We therefore took hematopoietic cells from fetal liver of WT and Whsc1-KO embryo littermates and injected them in to lethally irradiated RAG1-KO recipients and allowed the generation of a full Whsc1-KO hematopoietic system. Then, WT and Whsc1-KO B cells were obtained from the spleen and stimulated with LPS to induce proliferation and class switch recombination. Flow cytometry and cell cycle analyses (among others) showed the existence of serious proliferative alterations in Whsc1-KO cells. Then, we performed paired-end RNAseq analyses of 7 independent WT and 6 independent Whsc1-KO biological replicates and we used these data to identify differentially expressed genes and pathways regulated by Whsc1 in B cells.

Description
Attempts at modeling chromosomal translocations involving MALT1 gene, hallmarks of human mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, have failed to reproduce the disease in mice. Here we describe a transgenic model in which MALT1 expression was targeted to mouse hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. In Sca1-MALT1 mice, MALT1 deregulation activated the NF-kappaB pathway in Sca1+ cells, promoting selective B-cell differentiation and mature lymphocyte accumulation in extranodal tissues, progressively leading to the development of clonal B-cell lymphomas. These tumors recapitulated the histopathological features of human MALT lymphomas, presenting typical lymphoepithelial lesions and plasmacytic differentiation. Transcriptional profiling of Sca1-MALT1 murine lymphomas revealed overlapping molecular signatures with human MALT lymphomas, including MALT1-mediated NF-kappaB activation, pro-inflammatory signaling and XBP1-induced plasmacytic differentiation. Moreover, murine Malt1 showed proteolytic activity by cleaving Bcl10 in Sca1-MALT1 lymphomas. Our novel technological approach has allowed modeling human MALT lymphoma in mice, which represent unique tools study MALT lymphoma biology and evaluate anti-MALT1 therapies.

Description
The indisputable role of epigenetics in cancer and the fact that epigenetic alterations can be reversed have favored development of epigenetic drugs. In this study, we have design and synthesize potent novel, selective and reversible chemical probes that simultaneously inhibit the G9a and DNMTs methyltransferase activity. In vitro treatment of hematological neoplasia (Acute Myeloid Leukemia-AML, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia-ALL and Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma-DLBCL) with the lead compound CM-272, inhibited cell proliferation and promoted apoptosis, inducing interferon stimulated genes and immunogenic cell death. CM-272 significantly prolonged survival of AML, ALL and DLBCL xenogeneic models. Our results represent the discovery of first-in-class dual inhibitors of G9a/DNMTs and establish this chemical series, as a promising therapeutic tool for unmet needs in hematological tumors.
