Project description:Synovial sarcoma is a deadly soft-tissue malignancy with a predilection for adolescents and young adults. Mice recapitulate synovial sarcomagenesis from expression of SS18-SSX2 in certain cells. Concomitant expression of a stabilized form of beta-catenin enhances synovial sarcomagenesis and expands the potential cells of origin. Mice bearing conditional expression of SS18-SSX2 from the Rosa26 locus and conditional excision of the 3rd exon of beta-catenin, each activated in the leg by Cre-recombinase expressed from an adeno-associated viral vector, formed large tumors at brief latency.

Project description:We analyzed the effects of cellular context on the function of the synovial sarcoma-specific fusion protein, SS18-SSX, using human pluripotent stem cells containing the drug-inducible SS18-SSX gene. To investigate the cell-type-dependent effecfts of SS18-SSX, we performed gene expression profiling experiments.

Project description:SS18-SSX fusion proteins play a central role in synovial sarcoma development, however, genetic network and mechanisms of synovial sarcomagenesis remain largely unknown. To clarify such unknown mechanisms, we have established a new ex vivo mouse model for synovial sarcoma, using retrovirus-mediated gene transfer of SS18-SSX1 to mouse embryonic mesenchymal cells followed by subcutaneous transplantation into nude mice. This approach successfully induced subcutaneous tumors in 100% of recipients, showing invasive proliferation of short spindle tumor cells with occasional biphasic appearance. Cytokeratin expression was observed in epithelial components in tumors and expression of TLE1 and BCL2 was also shown. Gene expression profiling indicates modulation of the SWI/SNF pathway by introduction of SS18-SSX1 into mesenchymal cells, and upregulation of Tle1 and Atf2 in tumors. Collectively, these findings indicate the model exhibits typical phenotypes of human synovial sarcoma. Retroviral tagging of the tumor identified 15 common retroviral integration sites with the Dnm3 locus as the most frequent in 30 mouse synovial sarcomas. Up-regulation of micro RNAs miR-199a2 and miR-214 within the Dnm3 locus was observed. Co-introduction of SS18-SSX1 and miR-214 indeed accelerated sarcoma onset, indicating that miR-214 is a cooperative onco-miR in synovial sarcomagenesis. miR-214 functions in the cell non-autonomous manner, promoting cytokine gene expression such as Cxcl15/IL8. We have succeeded to generate a novel mouse model for human synovial sarcoma. As miR-214 overexpression in human synovial sarcoma was reported, our results underscore the important role of miR-214 in tumor development and disease progression. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression in mouse synovial sarcoma and embryonic mesenchymal cells

Project description:Synovial sarcoma-like tumors were generated in mice by conditionally expressing the human t(X;18) translocation-derived SYT-SSX2 fusion protein. Using a Tamoxifen-inducible CreER system, we show here that sporadic expression of SYT-SSX2 across multiple tissue types leads to exclusive formation of synovial sarcoma-like tumors while its widespread expression is lethal. CreER-based sporadic expression both avoids the severe early developmental phenotypes associated with widespread SYT-SSX2 expression and better models natural pathogenesis of cancers where transformed cells usually arise within an environment of largely normal cells.

Experiment Overall Design: Genetically engineered mice capable of conditionally expressing the human synovial sarcoma-associated SYT-SSX2 fusion oncogene were mated with genetically engineered mice expressing the CreER fusion protein from ROSA locus. The progenies harboring both CreER and SYT-SSX2 were followed up with or without tamoxifen injection. Tumors were generated in these mice that were dissected out, RNA extracted, and subjected to expression profiling by microarray analysis.

Project description:Synovial Sarcoma (SySa) is an aggressive soft tissue sarcoma that accounts for 5 – 10% of all soft tissue sarcomas. Current treatment involves radiation and radical surgery including limb amputation, highlighting the urgent need to develop targeted therapies. We reasoned that transcriptional rewiring by the fusion protein SS18-SSX, the sole oncogenic driver in SySa, creates specific vulnerabilities that can be exploited for treatment. To uncover genes that are selectively essential for SySa, we mined the Dependency Maps (Depmap) database to identify genes that specifically impact the fitness of SySa compared to other tumor cell lines. Targeted CRISPR library screening of select SySa-selective candidates revealed that the small ubiquitin-like modifier 2 (SUMO2) was one of the strongest dependencies both in vitro as well as in vivo. TAK-981, a clinical-stage small molecule SUMO2 inhibitor potently inhibited growth, colony-forming ability, and spheroid formation of SySa cell lines. Strikingly, transcriptomic studies showed that TAK-981 treatment elicited a profound reversal of a gene expression program orchestrated by SS18-SSX fusions. Of note, genetic or pharmacological SUMO2 inhibition reduced global and chromatin levels of the SS18-SSX fusion protein with a concomitant reduction in histone 2A lysine 119 ubiquitination (H2AK119ub), an epigenetic mark that is enhanced by the SySa fusions and plays an important role in SySa pathogenesis. Taken together, our studies identify SUMO2 as a novel, selective vulnerability in SySa. Since SUMO2 inhibitors are currently in Phase 1/2 clinical trials for human cancer, our findings present a novel potential avenue for targeted treatment of synovial sarcoma.
