Project description:Frozen skeletal muscle, tumor adjacent skeletal muscle, Endothelial Rhabdomyosarcoma (ERMS) and Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma (ARMS) samples were profiled on Illumina bead array. Total RNA from primary resected samples were profiled to allow comparison of 1) normal skeletal muscle tissue with RMS samples and 2) ARMS with ERMS tumors.

Project description:The cell of origin for rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) remains to be determined. We utilized two skeletal muscle specific inducible Cre mouse lines to transform both skeletal muscle stem cells and progenitors to determine which cells give rise to RMS and UPS.

Project description:The cell of origin for rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) and undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) remains to be determined. We utilized two skeletal muscle specific inducible Cre mouse lines to transform both skeletal muscle stem cells and progenitors to determine which cells give rise to RMS and UPS. Both P7KP and MDKP derived mice were injected with systemic tamoxifen and mice were euthanized after tumor development. Sections of resected tumor were placed in RNAlater and placed at -80 until RNA isolation. RNA was isolated by grinding up tumor sections in liquid nitrogen and using the Qiagen RNEasy Micro kit.

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) describes rare soft-tissue tumors that exhibit features of skeletal muscle differentiation. The most common subtypes in children are alveolar and embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma, with the alveolar subtype characterized by PAX3/7 fusions. A lesser known and rarer subtype, pleomorphic rhabdomyosarcoma (PRMS), occurs most frequently in adults vetween the ages of 40 and 50. This pleomorphic subtype is often misdiagnosed and little is known about its molecular characterization. Here, we conducted comprehensive genomic, transcriptomic, and methylation profiling of these tumors.

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcoma is a pediatric malignancy thought to arise from the uncontrolled proliferation of myogenic cells. Here, we have generated models of rhabdomyosarcoma in the zebrafish by inducing oncogenic KRASG12D expression at different stages during muscle development. Several zebrafish promoters were used including the cdh15 and rag2 promoters that drive gene expression in early muscle progenitors, and the mylz2 promoter that expresses in differentiating myoblasts. The tumors that developed differed in their ability to recapitulate normal myogenesis. cdh15:KRASG12D and rag2:KRASG12D fish developed tumors that displayed an inability to fully undergo muscle differentiation by histologic appearance and gene expression analyses. In contrast, mylz2:KRASG12D tumors more closely resembled mature skeletal muscle and were most similar to well-differentiated human rhabdomyosarcoma by gene expression. mylz2:KRASG12D fish showed significantly improved survival compared to cdh15:KRASG12D and rag2:KRASG12D fish. Tumor-propagating activity was enriched in myf5-expressing cell populations within all of the tumor types. Our results demonstrate that oncogene expression at different stages during muscle development has profound effects on the ability of tumor cells to recapitulate normal myogenesis, altering the tumorigenic capability of these cells. 32 samples total: 7 WT muscle, 9 mylz2-KRAS, 9 cdh15-KRAS, and 7 rag2-KRAS tumors

Project description:Activation of Sonic Hedgehog signaling through expression of a constitutively active Smoothened allele under control of an aP2 adipocyte-restricted transgene in mice gives rise to aggressive skeletal muscle tumors that display the histologic and molecular characteristics of human embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma with high penetrance. Conditional mouse models of embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma were created by activation of the oncogenic SmoM2 allele by both the non-muscle aP2-Cre or myotube Myogenin-Cre.

Project description:Rhabdomyosarcomas (RSCs) are skeletal muscle neoplasms found in humans and domestic mammals. The A/J inbred strain developed a high frequency of RSC by 20 months of age while BALB/cJ and BALB/cByJ also develop RSC but less frequently. These neoplasms affected skeletal muscle surrounding either the axial or proximal appendicular skeleton and were characterized by pleomorphic cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm, multiple nuclei, and cross striations that invaded locally. The diagnosis was confirmed by detection of alpha-sarcomeric actin and myogenin in the neoplastic cells using immunocytochemistry. The A/J strain, but not the related BALB/c substrains, is also characterised by a progressive muscular dystrophy homologous to limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B. The association between the development of RSC in similar muscle groups to those most severely affected by the progressive muscular dystrophy suggested that these neoplasms developed from abnormal regeneration of the skeletal muscle exacerbated by the dysferlin mutation. Transcriptome analyses revealed marked downregulation of genes in muscular development and function signaling networks. Non-synonymous coding SNPs were found in Myl1, Abra, Sgca, Ttn, and Kcnj12 suggesting these may be important in the pathogenesis of RSC. These studies suggest that A strains of mice can be useful models for dissecting the molecular genetic basis for development, progression, and ultimately for testing novel anticancer therapeutic agents dealing with rhabdomyosarcoma. Total RNA obtained from skeletal muscle samples from neoplastic and non-neoplastic tissues. Four rhabdomyosarcomas (~450 day old male A/J mice) and 8 nonneoplastic skeletal muscle samples (425-550 day old male A/J mice) were used

Project description:In order to dtermine how well a mouse genetic model of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) mimics the human disease, five human ASPS tumor samples and three normal skeletal muscle samples were profiled by RNAseq and compared to samples from five mouse tumors induced by expression of ASPSCR1-TFE3 and three normal mouse skeletal muscle samples, also profiled by RNAseq.
