Description
Large cell lymphomas of the gastrointestinal tract are currently regarded as diffuse large B-cell lymphomas despite a more favourable clinical outcome and a lower aggressiveness compared to other nodal and extranodal DLBCL. We compared gene expression profiles of 28 gastrointestinal marginal zone B-cell lymphomas and variants with several other B-cell lymphoma entities such as Burkitts lymphoma, nodal DLBCL, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, primary mediastinal B-cell lymphoma and normal B-cell populations. Based on a subset of NF-kappaB target genes, partitioning and hierarchical cluster algorithms were used which led to comparable results. The different B-cell subsets, the Burkitts lymphoma, and the small cell lymphomas formed distinct groups, respectively. The DLBCL were subdivided into one group containing only DLBCL samples, one subset clustered together with the PMBL samples, and another one together with the blastic variants of MZBL. These results implicate that extranodal blastic MZBL represent a distinct subgroup of DLBCL.

Description
The animal piRNA pathway is a small RNA silencing system that acts in gonads and protects the genome against the deleterious influence of transposons. A major bottleneck in the field is the lack of comprehensive knowledge of the factors and molecular processes that constitute this pathway. We conducted an RNAi screen in Drosophila and identified ~50 genes that strongly impact the ovarian somatic piRNA pathway. Many identified genes fall into functional categories that indicate essential roles for mitochondrial metabolism, RNA export, the nuclear pore, transcription elongation and chromatin regulation in the pathway. Follow-up studies on two factors demonstrate the identification of components acting at distinct hierarchical levels of the pathway. Finally, we define CG2183/Gasz as a novel primary piRNA biogenesis factor in somatic and germline cells. Based on the similarities between insect and vertebrate piRNA pathways our results have far-reaching implications for the understanding of this conserved genome defense system. Overall design: Steady-state RNA levels in wild-type ovarian somatic cells (OSC) and RNAi knock-downs of the piRNA pathway components.

Description
To investigate the function of CITED1 in melanoma, its expression was transiently down regulated using CITED1-targeting siRNA. The HT144 melanoma cell line was chosen as it had a relatively high level of detectable CITED1 mRNA and protein expression.

Description
Lung cancer is the worldwide leading cause of death from cancer. DNA methylation in gene promoter regions is a major mechanism of gene expression regulation that may promote tumorigenesis. Experimental Design Whole-genome DNA methylation analysis using 450K Illumina BeadArrays was performed on 12 normal lung tissues and 124 tumors including 83 adenocarcinomas, 23 squamous cell carcinomas (SqCC), one adenosquamous cancer, five large cell carcinomas, nine large cell neuroendocrine carcinomas (LCNEC), and three small cell carcinomas (SCLC). Complimentary gene expression analyses was performed on 117 of the 124 tumors using Illumina HT12 V4 arrays (reported here).

Description
The X-linked DDX3X gene encodes an ATP-dependent DEAD-box RNA helicase frequently altered in various human cancers including melanomas. Despite its important roles in translation and splicing, how DDX3X dysfunction specifically rewires gene expression in melanoma remains completely unknown. Here we uncover a DDX3X-driven post-transcriptional program that dictates melanoma phenotype and poor disease prognosis. Through an unbiased analysis of translating ribosomes we identified the microphtalmia-associated transcription factor, MITF, as a key DDX3X translational target that directs a proliferative-to-metastatic phenotypic switch in melanoma cells. Mechanistically, DDX3X controls MITF mRNA translation via an internal ribosome entry site (IRES) embedded within the 5' untranslated region. Through this exquisite translation-based regulatory mechanism, DDX3X steers MITF protein levels dictating melanoma metastatic potential in vivo and response to targeted therapy. Together these findings unravel a post-transcriptional layer of gene regulation that may provide a unique therapeutic vulnerability in aggressive male melanomas. Overall design: We sequenced transcripts associated with translationally active ribosomes (polysomes) isolated by sucrose gradient fractionation from DDX3X and control siRNA-transduced HT144 cells. Experiments were performed in duplicates.
