Description
Microglia are phagocytic cells that survey the brain and perform neuroprotective functions in response to tissue damage, but their activating receptors are largely unknown. Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2) is a microglial immunoreceptor whose loss-of-function mutations in humans cause presenile dementia, while genetic variants are associated with increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases. In myeloid cells, TREM2 has been involved in the regulation of phagocytosis, cell proliferation and inflammatory responses in vitro. However, it is unknown how TREM2 contributes to microglia function in vivo. Here, we identify a critical role for TREM2 in the activation and function of microglia during cuprizone (CPZ)-induced demyelination. TREM2-deficient (TREM2(-/-)) mice had defective clearance of myelin debris and more axonal pathology, resulting in impaired clinical performances compared to wild-type (WT) mice. TREM2(-/-) microglia proliferated less in areas of demyelination and were less activated, displaying a more resting morphology and decreased expression of the activation markers MHC II and inducible nitric oxide synthase as compared to WT. Mechanistically, gene expression and ultrastructural analysis of microglia suggested a defect in myelin degradation and phagosome processing during CPZ intoxication in TREM2(-/-) microglia. These findings place TREM2 as a key regulator of microglia activation in vivo in response to tissue damage.

Description
We performed a genome-scale CRISPR screen in a KRAS-mutant pancreatic cancer cell line treated with the MEK inhibitor trametinib, and found that loss of the transcriptional repressor CIC confers resistance to MEK inhibition. We determined that CIC loss also confers resistance to MEK or BRAF inhibition in lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and melanoma cell lines with mutant RAS or BRAF. CIC is a transcriptional repressor that is phosphorylated and inhibited by the MAPK pathway. We hypothesized that inhibition of the MAPK pathway would lead to activation of CIC and repression of CIC target genes. Loss of CIC would therefore restore expression of these genes, conferring drug resistance. To identify the relevant CIC target genes that mediate trametinib resistace, we generated 4 Cas9-expressing cell lines from different lineages and with different RAS or RAF mutations, and generated control (gGFP) or CIC-knockout (gCIC) cell lines. We treated cells with DMSO or trametinib for 24 hours, and performed NRA-seq. We found that trametinib treatment reduces expression of at least one member of the PEA3 family of ETS transcription factors (ETV1, ETV4, and ETV5) in all cell lines assessed, and that loss of CIC results in maintained expression of these genes despite MEK inhibition. We further validated that ETV1, 4, and 5 expression was necessary for resistance mediated by CIC loss; and that ETV1, 4, or 5 expression was sufficient to confer trametinib resistance. Overall design: 4 Cas9-expressing human cancer cell lines (A549, CALU1, HCT116, PATU8902) were used to generate 3 isogenic cell lines with intact CIC (gGFP-1) or knocked out CIC (gCIC-1 or gCIC-2). Each of these 12 cell lines were treated with DMSO or trametinib for 24 hours (duplicates)

Description
Cancer cells that express oncogenic alleles of RAS typically require sustained expression of the mutant allele for survival, but the molecular basis of this oncogene dependency remains incompletely understood. To identify genes that can functionally substitute for oncogenic RAS, we systematically expressed 15,294 open reading frames in a human KRAS-dependent colon cancer cell line engineered to express an inducible KRAS-specific shRNA. We found 147 genes that promoted survival in the setting of KRAS suppression. In this model, the transcriptional co-activator YAP1 rescued cell viability in KRAS-dependent cells upon suppression of KRAS and was required for KRAS-induced cell transformation. Acquired resistance to Kras suppression in a Kras-driven murine lung cancer model also involved increased YAP1 signaling. KRAS and YAP1 converge on the transcription factor FOS and activate a transcriptional program involved in regulating the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). Together, these findings implicate transcriptional regulation of EMT by YAP1 as a significant component of oncogenic RAS signaling.

Description
Purpose: Unlike in most adult-onset cancers, an association between typical paediatric neoplasms and inflammatory triggers is rare. We studied whether immune system related genes are activated and have prognostic significance in Ewing sarcoma family of tumours (ESFT). Experimental design: Data-analysis was performed on gene expression profiles of 44 ESFT patient, 11 ESFT cell line, and 18 normal muscle tissue samples. 238 inflammation related genes were selected based on literature and a macrophage gene expression signature was derived from SymAtlas. Differential expression of the genes was analysed by t-test and survival analysis was performed according to gene expression.
