Project description:The identification of genetic alterations in sarcoma may give precious clues for the diagnosis. The detection of MDM2 amplification has an important impact since it may orientate towards a dedifferentiated liposarcoma (DDLPS) or more rarely towards an intimal sarcoma. Here we describe a poorly differentiated sarcoma initially diagnosed as a DDLPS, mainly on the basis of FISH analysis that detected MDM2 amplification. The patient was treated by adjuvant radiotherapy and, when the tumor recurred a few years later, MDM2 amplification was not observed anymore. We report the clinical, immunohistological, genomic and molecular description of the primary tumors and his recurrences.

Project description:DNA methylation profiling has emerged as a valuable tool for tumor classification, exemplified by the German Cancer Research Center's creation of online classifiers for CNS tumors and sarcomas. Identification of rare molecular events, such as TRIO::TERT fusion in undifferentiated sarcomas, through DNA methylation profiling and transcriptome analysis aims to define distinct molecular subgroups within sarcomas of uncertain diagnosis, potentially improving classification and treatment strategies.In this study, we present 8 cases of sarcomas characterized by TRIO::TERT fusion, establishing it as a distinct molecular subtype of sarcomas. This fusion represents a consistent molecular feature across all analyzed tumors, suggesting its pivotal role in sarcomatogenesis. Identifying TRIO::TERT transcript sarcoma as a new tumor type may enhance diagnostic strategies for improved patient management.

Project description:We used NGS on a cohort of complex genetics sarcomas to study their transcriptomes (RNA-seq technology), looking for recurrent and specific gene fusions. We identified multiple TRIO fusions with different partners in our cohort. No TRIO fusions were reported in negative-control cells (normal tissues) and in simple genetics sarcomas.

Project description:Although irradiated induced-pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as a prophylactic cancer vaccine elicit an antitumor immune response, the therapeutic efficacy of iPSC-based cancer vaccines is not promising due to their insufficient antigenicity and the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment. Here, we found that neoantigen-engineered iPSC cancer vaccines can trigger neoantigen-specific T cell responses to eradicate cancer cells and increase the therapeutic efficacy of RT in poorly immunogenic colorectal cancer (CRC) and triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). We generated neoantigen-augmented iPSCs (NA-iPSCs) by engineering AAV2 vector carrying murine neoantigens and evaluated their therapeutic efficacy in combination with radiotherapy. After administration of NA-iPSC cancer vaccine and radiotherapy, we found that ~60% of tumor-bearing mice achieved a complete response in microsatellite-stable CRC model. Furthermore, splenocytes from mice treated with NA-iPSC plus RT produced high levels of IFN secretion in response to neoantigens and had a greater cytotoxicity to cancer cells, suggesting that the NA-iPSC vaccine combined with radiotherapy elicited a superior neoantigen-specific T-cell response to eradicate cancer cells. The superior therapeutic efficacy of NA-iPSCs engineered by mouse TNBC neoantigens was also observed in the syngeneic immunocompetent TNBC mouse model. We found that the risk of spontaneous lung and liver metastasis was dramatically decreased by NA-iPSCs plus RT in the TNBC animal model. Altogether, these results indicated that autologous iPSC cancer vaccines engineered by neoantigens can elicit a high neoantigen-specific T-cell response, promote tumor regression and reduce the risk of distant metastasis in combination with local radiotherapy.

Project description:Using microcell-mediated chromosome transfer (MMCT) into the mouse melanoma cell line, B16F10, we have previously found that human chromosome 5 carries a gene, or genes, that can negatively regulate TERT expression. To identify the gene responsible for the regulation of TERT transcription, we performed cDNA microarray analysis using parental B16F10 cells, telomerase negative B16F10 microcell hybrids with a human chromosome 5 (B16F10MH5), and its revertant clones (MH5R) with reactivated telomerase. Here we report the identification of PITX1, whose restoration leads to the downregulation of mouse tert (mtert) transcription, as a TERT suppressor gene. Additionally, both human TERT (hTERT) and mouse TERT (mtert) promoter activity can be suppressed by PITX1. We showed that three and one binding sites, respectively, within the hTERT and mtert promoters that express a unique conserved region are responsible for the transcriptional activation of TERT. Furthermore, we showed that PITX1 binds to the TERT promoter both in vitro and in vivo. Thus, PITX1 suppresses TERT transcription through direct binding to the TERT promoter, which ultimately regulates telomerase activity.

We transferred intact human chromosome 5 into mouse melanoma B16F10 cells by microcell fusion. The microcell hybrids (MH5) exhibited suppression of telomerase, we also obtained revertant clones (MH5R) in which telomerase is reactivated. To identify the differentially expressed genes on human chromosome 5, we performed expression microarray analysis using these two clones and parental B16F10 cells.
