Project description:We utilized three murine MPNST cell lines. 67C-4 and #5NPCIS cell lines are derived from spontaneously arising tumors in mice mutated for NF1 and p53 (so-called NP-cis mice; PMID: 12154062). SN4-4 cells originated from MPNST tumors induced by injecting adenovirus containing Cas9 and guide RNA for Nf1 and p53 into the sciatic nerves, resulting in NF1/p53-null MPNST (PMID: 32456131). We implanted 5 x 10^6 murine MPNST cells, subcutaneously, into the flanks of 6-8 weeks old gender-matched C57BL/6 mice (for 67C-4 and #5NPCIS) and BALB/c mice (for SN4-4 mice) to generate MPNST tumors. All mice were procured from Envigo. Upon reaching a size of 300-500 mm3, the mice were euthanized to harvest the tumors, which were subsequently flash frozen using liquid nitrogen and processed for RNA sequencing.
Project description:We used single-cell RNAseq to profile early and advanced mouse MPNST tumors, as well as human neurofibroma and MPNST. Our work defines the stage-specific kinetics of transcriptomics, cellular heterogeneity, and tumor cell fate decisions in murine and human MPNSTs.

Project description:Using mouse models, we show that PRC2 restrains MPNST development in the peripheral nervous system in the absence of both Nf1 and Cdkn2a tumor suppressor genes. Here we conducted bulk RNA-sequencing of tumors generated in mice.
Project description:Comparison of copy number changes in MPNST samples against benign neurofibromas in NF1 patients 24 MPNSTs and 3 NF samples were hybridised to the human 32K BAC tiling path array
Project description:In order to analyze the genes and molecular pathways modulated by ENG targeting in MPNST, we performed RNA-seq on STS26T xenografts treated with TRC105/M1043 and compared their expression profiles with those of IgG-treated control tumors.
