Expression profiles of Ewing family of tumors authenticate distinct molecular entities

ABSTRACT: The concept of Ewing family of tumors (EFT), characterized by FET-ETS fusions, has been recently challenged by the description of Ewing-like tumors with different gene fusions. Here we investigate the similarities and differences of FET-ETS, BCOR-CCNB3, CIC-DUX4 and EWSR1-NFATc2 tumors samples with a number of other sarcomas. Unsupervised clustering of gene expression profiles fully discriminates these four molecular entities. Specific gene signatures and pathways were further validated in model cell lines. While a clear inflammatory signature characterizes EWSR1-NFATc2 tumors, BCOR-CCNB3 and CIC-DUX4 exhibit high expression of homeobox and ETS protein families, respectively. We strongly suggest that abnormalities of chromatin remodeling may gather CIC-DUX4 and BCOR-CCNB3 tumors with rhabdoid tumors and synovial sarcomas. This dataset conains 14 CIC-DUX4 and 7 EWSR1-NFATc2 tumor samples as well as Human mesenchymal cell line expressing EWSR1-NFATc2 (duplicates) or mock treated (duplicates) and IB120 CIC-DUX4 cell line expressing an shRNA directed against CIC-DUX4 (4 replicates) or mock treated (duplicates).

A new subtype of bone sarcoma defined by BCOR-CCNB3 gene fusion

Project description:The identification of subtype-specific translocations has revolutionized diagnostics of sarcoma and provided new insight into oncogenesis. We used RNA-Seq to investigate samples diagnosed as small round cell tumors of bone, possibly Ewing sarcoma, but lacking the canonical EWSR1-ETS translocation. A new fusion was observed between the BCL6 co-repressor (BCOR) and the testis specific cyclin B3 (CCNB3) genes on chromosome X. RNA-Seq results were confirmed by RT-PCR and cloning the tumor-specific genomic translocation breakpoints. 24 BCOR-CCNB3-positive tumors were identified among a series of 594 sarcomas. Gene profiling experiments indicate that BCOR-CCNB3-positive cases are biologically distinct from other sarcomas, particularly EwingM-bM-^@M-^Ys sarcoma. Finally, we show that CCNB3 immunohistochemistry is a powerful diagnostic marker for this group of sarcoma and that over-expression of BCOR-CCNB3 or of a truncated CCNB3 activates S-phase in NIH3T3 cells. Thus the intrachromosomal X fusion described here represents a new subtype of bone sarcoma caused by a novel gene fusion mechanism. Comparison of expression profiles of 10 BCOR-CCNB3 samples (plus 4 EWS-FLI1 Ewing sarcomas samples as control) with publicly available profiles of other tumor types.

Systematic multi-omics cell line profiling uncovers principles of Ewing sarcoma fusion oncogene-mediated gene regulation

Project description:Ewing sarcoma (EwS) is characterized by EWSR1-ETS fusion transcription factors converting polymorphic GGAA microsatellites (mSats) into potent neo-enhancers. Although the paucity of additional mutations makes EwS a genuine model to study principles of cooperation between dominant fusion oncogenes and neo-enhancers, this is impeded by the limited number of well-characterized models. Here we present the Ewing Sarcoma Cell Line Atlas (ESCLA), comprising whole-genome, DNA methylation, transcriptome, proteome, and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq) data of 18 cell lines with inducible EWSR1-ETS knockdown. The ESCLA shows hundreds of EWSR1-ETS-targets, the nature of EWSR1-ETS-preferred GGAA mSats, and putative indirect modes of EWSR1-ETS-mediated gene regulation, converging in the duality of a specific but plastic EwS signature. We identify heterogeneously regulated EWSR1-ETS-targets as potential prognostic EwS biomarkers. Our freely available ESCLA (http://r2platform.com/escla/) is a rich resource for EwS research and highlights the power of comprehensive datasets to unravel principles of heterogeneous gene regulation by chimeric transcription factors.

Identification of FET-oncoprotein-interacting proteins by immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analysis in sarcoma cell lines

Project description:The FET family of fusion oncogenes carry one of the three genes, FUS, EWSR1 or TAF15, as 5’‑partners juxtaposed to one of many different DNA binding transcription factor genes as 3’‑partners. FET fusion oncogenes are pathognomonic for many types of sarcoma and leukemia, such as FUS-DDIT3 in myxoid liposarcoma (MLS) and EWSR1-FLI1 in Ewing sarcoma (EWS). We used recombinant FET N-terminal domains in a pulldown screen to find interaction partners to the FET proteins and identified components of the SWI/SNF complex. The ~2 MDa SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex utilizes energy from ATP hydrolysis to remodel nucleosomes and expose DNA. We used immunoprecipitation followed by mass spectrometry or western blot analysis to extensively characterize the interaction between FET fusion oncoproteins and the SWI/SNF complex.

FET fusion oncoprotein-regulated genes in HT1080 cell line

Project description:Some specific sarcomas and leukemias are defined by characteristic FET (FUS, EWSR1, TAF15) fusion oncogenes. Myxoid liposarcoma and Ewing sarcoma are the most common entities characterized by FUS-DDIT3 and EWSR1-FLI1, respectively. Here, we performed whole transcriptome analysis of HT1080 cells with either ectopic FUS-DDIT3 or ectopic EWSR1-FLI1 expression.

Expression of the CIC-DUX4 fusion oncoprotein mirrors human CIC-rearranged sarcoma in a transgenic mouse model (RNA-Seq)

Project description:CIC-DUX4 sarcoma (CDS) is a rare but highly aggressive undifferentiated small round cell sarcoma driven by a fusion between the tumor suppressor Capicua (CIC) and DUX4. Currently, there are no effective treatments and efforts to identify and translate better therapies is limited by the scarcity of tissues and patients. To minimize, we made three genetically engineered mouse models of CDS (Ch7CDS, Ai9CDS, and TOPCDS). Remarkably, chimeric mice from all three models developed spontaneous tumors and widespread metastasis in the absence of Cre-recombinase. The penetrance of spontaneous (Cre-independent) tumor formation was complete irrespective of bi-allelic CIC function and loxP site proximity. Characterization of primary and metastatic mouse tumors showed that they consistently expressed the CIC-DUX4 fusion protein as well as other downstream markers of the disease authenticating them as CDS. Lastly, tumor-derived cell lines were generated and ChIP-seq was preformed to map fusion-gene specific binding using an N-terminal HA epitope tag. These datasets, along with paired H3K27ac ChIP-seq maps, validate CIC-DUX4 as a neomorphic transcriptional activator and point to ETS family transcription factors as cooperative and redundant drivers of the core regulatory circuitry.

Gene expression data from CNS-PNETs and various other brain tumor samples

Project description:Primitive neuroectodermal tumors of the central nervous system (CNS PNETs) are highly aggressive, poorly differentiated embryonal tumors occurring predominantly in young children. Using DNA methylation and gene expression profiling we have demonstrated that a significant proportion of institutionally diagnosed CNS PNETs display molecular profiles indistinguishable from those of various other well defined CNS tumor entities, facilitating diagnosis and appropiate therapy for children with these tumors. From the remaining fraction of CNS PNETs, we have identified four distinct new CNS tumor entities extending to other neuroepithelial tumors, each associated with a recurrent genetic alteration and particular histopathological and clinical features. These molecular entities, designated âCNS Neuroblastoma with FOXR2 activation (CNS NB FOXR2)â, âCNS Ewing sarcoma family tumor with CIC alteration (CNS EFT CIC)â, âCNS high grade neuroepithelial tumor with MN1 alteration (CNS HGNET MN1)â, and âCNS high grade neuroepithelial tumor with BCOR alteration (CNS HGNET BCOR)â, will enable meaningful clinical trials and the development of therapeutic strategies for patients affected by these poorly differentiated CNS tumors. 182 brain tumor samples were selected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays.

The Ewing sarcoma cell line atlas (ESCLA) - The relevance of the transcription factors GATA2 and E2F2 in a Ewing sarcoma cell line model

Project description:Cell lines have been essential for major discoveries in cancer including Ewing sarcoma (EwS). EwS is a highly aggressive pediatric bone or soft-tissue cancer characterized by oncogenic EWSR1-ETS fusion transcription factors converting polymorphic GGAA-microsatellites (mSats) into neo-enhancers. However, further detailed mechanistic evaluation of gene regulation in EwS have been hindered by the limited number of well-characterized cell line models. Here, we present the Ewing Sarcoma Cell Line Atlas (ESCLA) comprising 18 EwS cell lines with inducible EWSR1-ETS knockdown that were profiled by whole-genome-sequencing, DNA methylation arrays, gene expression and splicing arrays, mass spectrometry, and ChIP-seq for EWSR1-ETS and histone marks. Systematic analysis of these multi-dimensional data identified GATA2 and E2F2 as EWSR1-ETS-driven putative co-regulatory transcription factors. To evaluate the relevance of these transcrition factors, RNA interference in a Ewing sarcoma cell line was employed with subsequent Affymetrix Exon array profiling. The expression data were analysed in synopsis with the effects of EWSR1-FLI1 in the same cell line.
