Project description:Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a multisystem tumor-forming disorder caused by loss of TSC1 or TSC2. Renal manifestations predominately include cysts and angiomyolipomas. Despite a well-described monogenic etiology, the cellular pathogenesis has remained elusive. Here, we report a novel genetically-engineered human renal organoid model which recapitulates pleiotropic features of TSC kidney disease in vitro and upon orthotopic xenotransplantation. We find that loss of TSC1/2 affects multiple developmental processes in the renal epithelial, stromal, and glial compartments. First, loss of TSC1/2 leads to an expanded stroma by favouring stromal cell fate acquisition and alters terminal stromal cell identity. Second, epithelial cells in the TSC1/2-/- organoids exhibit a rapamycin-insensitive epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. Third, a melanocytic population forms exclusively in TSC1/2-/- organoids, branching from MITF+ Schwann cell precursors of a bona fide neural crest-to-Schwann cell differentiation trajectory. Together, these results illustrate the pleiotropic developmental consequences of biallelic inactivation of TSC1/2 and offer insight into the pathogenesis of TSC kidney lesions.

Project description:Chordoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC)

Project description:Chordoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) are an extremely rare tumor that was described only in 13 cases since 1975. Сhordomas themselves are malignant slow-growing bone tumors thought to arise from vestigial or ectopic notochordal tissue. In total, with CMA we found 180 regions with CNVs in the chordoma tumor sample. The longest section was 58,014 kbp long (arr[GRCh38] 9q21.31q34.3(79267492_137281464)x1-2), harboring region 9q34 that includes TSC1 gene. Also, 12 oncogenes including KRAS and CBX7 were in amplified regions and 92 tumor suppressor genes were in regions with loss status. Four genes that participate in epigenetic regulation, - ELP3, GTF3C4, MBD2, and PHF2 were found to be affected. Moreover, members of the APOBEC3 family were amplified.

Project description:Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory disease of the central nervous system characterised by myelin loss and progressive neurodegeneration. To better understand MS lesion initiation and progression, we generated spatial gene activity maps of white (WM) and grey matter (GM) MS lesions. In different MS lesion types, we detected novel transcriptional domains, including an identifiable rim around active WM lesions. These active lesion rims were characterised by changes in astrocytic, oligodendrocytic, and microglial gene activity. Furthermore, we identified three novel WM lesion trajectories, predicting how normal appearing WM could progress into WM lesions, with lesion rims, active lesion cores, and mixed active/inactive lesion cores as potential outcomes. Our findings offer new insights into MS lesion progression, and the dynamic molecular and cellular processes that underlie MS.

Project description:Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD), a focal brain malformation, is the most common cause of intractable epilepsy. One of the related disorders is tuberous sclerosis (TS). The dysplasia appears to result from a defect in cortical development, however, this disorder is heterogeneous, and FCD seizure therapy is non-specific and failure-prone. As a final recourse, patients may undergo multiple surgical resections to control seizures. Thus, there is a clinical need to characterize this disorder with respect to structural, molecular, and electrophysiological profiles, which will lead to development of animal models and pilot therapies that we will then apply to humans.

Project description:To screen genes related to the development of sweet potato tuberous roots, the high throughput sequencing of different stages of sweet potato tuberous roots was performed. The fibrous roots (FR; roots at 20 dap), developing tuberous roots (DR; roots at 60 dap) and mature tuberous roots (MR; roots at 120 dap) of Ipomoea batatas (L.) Taizhong 6 and MBP3 overexpressed lines were used for transcriptome analysis. Totally, we identified 5488 differentially expressed genes between different stage tuberous roots of Taizhong6 and 14312 differentially expressed genes between the tuberous roots of Taizhong6 and MBP3 overexpressed lines, by calculating the gene FPKM in each sample and conducting differential gene analysis. This study provides a foundation for the mechanism analysis of sweet potato tuberous root development.

Project description:Somatic retrotranspositions of various mobile genetic elements take place in tumors, and L1 retroelements physiologically transpose in neural progenitor cells during neurogenesis. We sequenced whole genomes of the neural progenitor cell-derived subependymal giant cell astrocytomas that typically affect patients suffering from the neurodevelopmental disease Tuberous Sclerosis. Here we show an unprecedented increased L1 retrotransposition in these tumors, with tens of thousands new genomic insertions, that preferentially invade genes involved in neural activity, synaptic transmission and cancer. The prevalent insertions are short, nested in preexisting L1 repeats in the same orientation, trimmed in both the 5’ and 3’ ends, representing unorthodox retrotransposition”. Most somatic L1 inserts in the genomically stable astrocytomas are nested in preexisting L1 elements. This preferred nested integration may act as a “lightning rod” mechanism dampening the effects of massive retrotransposition. In contrast, the enhanced transposition found in genomically unstable breast tumors includes regions of high-density clustered insertion, transposminos. These clustered insertions are expected to be more detrimental, as many of them are non-nested and frequently invade genic and exonic sequences. Exaggerated L1 retrotransposition may be a common stochastic damaging pathway in neurological disorders and cancer.
