Transcriptomic profiling of isolated mouse Merkel cells [SMARTseq]

Project description:Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a highly aggressive, neuroendocrine skin cancer that lacks actionable mutations, which could be utilized for targeted therapies. Epigenetic regulators governing cell identity may represent unexplored therapeutic entry points. Here, we targeted epigenetic regulators in a pharmacological screen and discovered that the lysine-specific histone demethylase 1A (LSD1/KDM1A) is required for MCC growth in vitro and in vivo. We show that LSD1 inhibition in MCC disrupts the LSD1-CoREST complex leading to displacement and degradation of HMG20B (BRAF35), a poorly characterized complex member that is essential for MCC proliferation. Inhibition of LSD1 causes derepression of transcriptional master regulators of the neuronal lineage, activates a gene expression signature resembling normal Merkel cells, and induces cell cycle arrest and cell death. Our study unveils the importance of LSD1 for proliferation and maintaining cell identity in MCC. There is growing evidence that cancer cells exploit cellular plasticity and dedifferentiation programs to evade destruction by the immune system. The combination of LSD1 inhibitors with checkpoint inhibitors may thus represent a promising treatment strategy for MCC patients.

Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of human Merkel cells and Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Project description:Merkel cell carcinoma is supposed to be derived from Merkel cells after infection by Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCV) and other poorly known events. A transcriptional profiling with cDNA microarrays was performed on cells from MCV+ Merkel cell carcinomas and isolated normal Merkel cells. This microarray revealed numerous significantly upregulated genes and down-regulated genes. The extensive list of genes identified in these experiments provides a large body of potentially valuable information of Merkel cell carcinoma carcinogenesis and could represent a source of potential targets for cancer therapy. Two-conditions experiment, MCV vs Normal Merkel Cell. Biological replicates : 4 MCV (Cy5), 1 control = pool of Normal Merkel cells from 3 liftings

Comparative Transcriptional Profiling of Human Merkel cells and Merkel Cell Carcinoma

Project description:Merkel cell carcinoma is supposed to be derived from Merkel cells after infection by Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV) and other poorly known events. A transcriptional profiling with cDNA microarrays was performed on cells from MCPyV(+) Merkel cell carcinomas and isolated normal Merkel cells. This microarray revealed numerous significantly upregulated genes and downregulated genes. The extensive list of genes identified in these experiments provides a large body of potentially valuable information of Merkel cell carcinoma carcinogenesis and could represent a source of potential targets for cancer therapy.

Characterization of human Merkel cells and their response to Merkel cell polyomavirus

Project description:Merkel cells are epidermal mechanoreceptor cells responsible for the perception of gentle touch. Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) is a rare and highly aggressive skin cancer. Although MCC histologically resembles Merkel cells, the cell of origin for MCC is unknown. MCC frequently contains integrated Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV), a small DNA tumor virus with widespread prevalence. Whether MCPyV can transform Merkel cells is unknown. Here, we describe the isolation and long-term expansion of human Merkel cells from neonatal foreskin. We validated the expression of several Merkel cell-related factors by RNASeq, and assessed the ultrastructure by electron microscopy. Culture of Merkel cell preparations on an artificial basement membrane promoted the formation of structures containing both Merkel and non-Merkel cell populations. To determine whether Merkel cells were susceptible to transformation, we expressed tumor-derived MCPyV T antigens and additional oncogenes. We were unable to demonstrate tumorigenesis in immunodeficient mice, but were able to detect T antigen expression from excised cells weeks after implantation. These results highlight that foreskin-isolated Merkel cells can be propagated extensively, sustain expression of MCPyV T antigens, but are not susceptible to transformation by MCPyV, suggesting that Merkel cells from non-glabrous skin may not be a cell of origin for MCC.

Single cell RNA-seq profiling of patient-derived Merkel cell carcinoma tumor samples

Project description:Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC), a rare but aggressive neuroendocrine cancer of the skin, remains a challenge in the era of precision medicine. MCC tumor heterogeneity has been attributed to the variant disease etiologies, mediated by either UV exposure or Merkel cell polyomavirus (MCPyV). However, over the years it has become clear that these two groups are largely similar in clinical presentation, prognosis, and treatment response to immune-checkpoint inhibitors. We therefore dissected the transcriptomic heterogeneity of a panel of patient tumors samples, at the single-cell resolution, to gather further insights.

RNAseq profiling of neonatal mouse Merkel cells and basal keratinocytes

Project description:Merkel cells (MCs), specialized neuroendocrine touch sensors within the epidermis, play a crucial role in tactile sensation. To gain deeper insignts into their molecular characteristics, we employed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to explore the transcriptome of MCs in comparsion to basal keratinocytes in neonatal mouse skin.

microRNA expression patterns related to merkel cell polyomavirus infection and clinical outcomes in human merkel cell carcinoma

Project description:We performed miRNA expression profiling in a series of human Merkel Cell carcinoma samples using a microarray approach. Significant differentially expressed miRNAs among groups were identified using SAM analysis. Agilent microarray platform containing 723 human miRNAs was used to determine miRNA expression profiles in 16 human Merkel cell carcinoma (MCC) samples. To validate the microarray platform, the expression levels of selected miRNAs were evaluated using qRT-PCR.

Merkel cell formation in hairy and glabrous skin

Project description:We describe Merkel cell formation in glabrous skin during embryogenesis. In our study, we first found that Merkel cells were specified at E15.5, 24 hours later, comparing to the back skin. Interestingly, by performing lineage-tracing experiments, we found that unlike back skin, SOX9(+) cells do not give rise to Merkel cells in glabrous skin. We performed transcriptional profiling of Merkel cells of the back and glabrous skin and showed that their transcriptoms are very similar. Taken together, Merkel cells in back skin and glabrous skin are similar, and their formation is controlled by a common genetic program, although their precursor cells might differ.
