Project description:Lung squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a deadly disease for which current treatments are inadequate. We demonstrate that bi-allelic inactivation of Lkb1 and Pten in the mouse lung led to SCC that recapitulated the histology, gene expression and microenvironment found in human disease. Lkb1/Pten-null (LP) tumors expressed the squamous markers Krt5, p63 and Sox2, and transcriptionally resembled the basal subtype of human SCC. In contrast to mouse adenocarcinomas, the LP tumors contained immune populations enriched for tumor-associated neutrophils. Sca1+/Ngfr+ fractions were enriched for tumor propagating cells (TPCs) that could serially transplant the disease in orthotopic assays. TPCs in the LP model and Ngfr+ cells in human SCCs highly expressed Pdl1, suggesting a novel mechanism of immune escape for TPCs. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression profles among lung SCC tumor epitheial cell, lung ADC tumor epithelia cell and normal epithelial cells. Kras tumor stroma cells and LP tumor stroma cells were sorted by FACS, the cells were gated as EpCAM-/CD45+/CD31+

Project description:MEFs were grown from WT and PDPN-deficient mouse embryos and gene expression was analyzed. The aim was to determine whether a lack of PDPN caused significant global changes in gene expression in primary fibroblasts. Here, we performed a microarray on WT and PDPN-deficient mouse embryonic fibroblasts to determine whether there were signficiant underlying changes in gene expression. Two replicates each of WT and PDPN KO MEFs from C57BL6/J mice

Project description:Bulk RNA-seq was performed on fibroblasts and mesothelial cells from 11 different healthy mouse tissues such as bone, epididymal, brown and inguinal fat pads, mesentery, omentum, pancreas, liver, lung, lymph node and spleen. This data was used to examine tissue specific gene expression programs of fibroblasts and mesothelial cells.

Project description:Many normal adult tissues contain rare stem cells with extensive self-maintaining regenerative potential. During development, the stem cells of the hematopoietic and neural systems undergo intrinsically specified changes in their self-renewal potential. In the mouse, mammary stem cells with transplantable regenerative activity are first detectable a few days before birth. They share some phenotypic properties with their adult counterparts but are enriched in a subpopulation that displays a distinct gene expression profile. Here we show that fetal mammary epithelial cells have a greater direct and inducible growth potential than their adult counterparts. The latter feature is revealed in a novel culture system that enables large numbers of mammary stem cells with serially transplantable activity as well as in vitro clonogenic progenitors to be produced within 7 days from single fetal or adult input cells. We further show that these responses are highly dependent on novel factors produced by fibroblasts. These findings provide new avenues for elucidating mechanisms that regulate normal mammary epithelial stem cell properties at the single-cell level, how these change during development, and how their perturbation may contribute to transformation. We used microarrays to compare the transcriptome of E18.5 fetal and adult MRU-enriched mammary cells. Three biological replicates each of CD31-CD45-Ter119-BP-1-EpCAM+CD49f+ adult basal cells and CD31-CD45-Ter119-EpCAM++CD49f+ fetal cells were sorted. RNA was extracted and hybridized to the Agilent One-Color Gene Expression Arrays .

Project description:Genetically engineered mouse models of lung cancer have demonstrated an important role in understanding the function of novel lung cancer oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes identified in genomic studies of human lung cancer. Further, these models are important platforms for pre-clinical therapeutic studies. Here, we generated a mouse model of lung adenocarcinoma driven by mutation of the Discoidin Domain Receptor 2 (DDR2) gene combined with loss of TP53. DDR2L63V;TP53L/L mice developed poorly differentiated lung adenocarcinomas in all transgenic animals analyzed with a latency of 40-50 weeks and a median survival of 67.5 weeks. Mice expressing wild-type DDR2 with combined TP53 loss did not form lung cancers. DDR2L63V; TP53L/L tumors displayed robust expression of DDR2 and immunohistochemical markers of lung adenocarcinoma comparable to previously generated models of lung adenocarcinoma though also displayed concomitant expression of the squamous cell markers p63 and SOX2. Tumor-derived cell lines were not solely DDR2 dependent and displayed up-regulation of and partial dependence on MYCN. Combined treatment with the BET inhibitor JQ1 and the mutltitargeted DDR2 inhibitor dasatinib inhibited tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Together, these results suggest that DDR2 mutation can drive lung cancer initiation in vivo and provide a novel mouse model for lung cancer therapeutics studies. We used microarrays to detail the gene expression profile of mouse primary lung tumor cell lines driven by DDR2L63V;p53L/L and KrasG12D;p53L/L. When DDR2L63V; p53 and KrasG12D;p53L/L mice developed lung tumors confirmed by MRI, the mice were sacrificed and lung tumor nodules were harvested, finely minced, and cultured in 100 mm dishes with RPMI 1640/10% FBS/1% pen-strep/2mM L-Glutamine. After 3 passages, frozen stocks of these short-term cultures were prepared, and further characterized by genotyping. DDR2 expression was induced by treating cells with 2 ug/ml DOX every 2 to 3 days and confirmed by western blot analysis. The cells were cultured in RPMI 1640/10% FBS/1% pen-strep/2mM L-Glutamine. All cells were cultured at 37oC in a humidified incubator with 5% CO2.

Project description:The adult human lung harbours a significant proportion of immune cells, which are known to play a crucial role in both normal lung homeostasis and pathogenesis. In this work, we collected CD45-enriched human lung cells from 6 to 22 week post conception (pcw) and built a single-cell transcriptome and proteome atlas. We showed a biphasic mode of immune cell development peaking at 8-9 and 20 pcw respectively. The developing immune cells potentially modulate the maturation of the epithelium through signalling molecules. We demonstrated using the lung organoid model that IL-1ß was required for epithelium differentiation. Overall, we provide a resource for the community of lung biologists and immunologists and provide insights on the interaction between the innate immune system and epithelium during fetal development.

Project description:KRAS-mutant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is highly immunosuppressive and resistant to targeted therapies, immune checkpoint blockade and engineered T cells. In this study, we performed a systematic high throughput combinatorial drug screen and identified a synergistic interaction between the MEK inhibitor trametinib and the multi- kinase inhibitor nintedanib. Using single cell RNA sequencing and immunophenotyping, we show that the combination therapy reprograms the immunosuppressive microenvironment and primes cytotoxic and memory T cells to infiltrate the tumors, thereby sensitizing mesenchymal PDAC to PD-L1 inhibition.
