Description
Using Drop-seq, we generated high-throughput single-cell expression data from wild-type and four mutant models with male infertility phenotype. Our study demonstrates the applicability of single-cell RNA-sequencing in study of male gonadal dysfunction and provides cell atlas resource for testis. Overall design: Drop-seq was performed on FACS sorted germ cell populations, wild-type whole testes and mutant whole testes. Different experimental batches for wild-type and mutant strains were generated.

Description
The estrogen-dependence of breast cancer has long been recognized, however, the role of 17-estradiol (E2) in cancer initiation was not known until we demonstrated that it induces complete neoplastic transformation of the human breast epithelial cells MCF-10F. E2-treatment of MCF-10F cells progressively induced high colony efficiency and loss of ductulogenesis in early transformed (trMCF) cells and invasiveness in Matrigel invasion chambers. The cells that

Description
PTEN loss or PI3K/AKT signaling pathway activation correlates with human prostate cancer progression and metastasis. However, in preclinical murine models, deletion of Pten alone fails to mimic the significant metastatic burden that frequently accompanies the end stage of human disease. To identify additional pathway alterations that cooperate with PTEN loss in prostate cancer progression, we surveyed human prostate cancer tissue microarrays and found that the RAS/MAPK pathway is significantly elevated both in primary and metastatic lesions. In an attempt to model this event, we crossed conditional activatable K-rasG12D/WT mice with the prostate conditional Pten deletion model we previously generated. Although RAS activation alone cannot initiate prostate cancer development, it significantly accelerated progression caused by PTEN loss, accompanied by epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and macrometastasis with 100% penitence. A novel stem/progenitor subpopulation with mesenchymal characteristics was isolated from the compound mutant prostates, which was highly metastatic upon orthotopic transplantation. Importantly, inhibition of RAS/MAPK signaling by PD325901, a MEK inhibitor, significantly reduced the metastatic progression initiated from transplanted stem/progenitor cells. Collectively, these data indicate that activation of RAS/MAPK signaling serves as a potentiating second hit to alteration of the PTEN/PI3K/AKT axis and co-targeting both pathways is highly effective in preventing the development of metastatic prostate cancers.

Description
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) can be classified into the major subtypes adenocarcinoma (AC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) subtypes. Although explicit molecular, histological and clinical characteristics have been reported for both subtypes, no specific therapy exists so far. However, the characterization of suitable molecular targets holds great promises to develop novel therapies in NSCLC. In the present study, global gene expression profiling of 58 human high grade NSCLC specimens revealed large transcriptomic differences between AC and SCC subtypes: More than 1.700 genes were found to be differentially expressed.

Description
To amass candidate DIMM targets in addition to Phm (Park et al., 2008a), we used genome-wide microarray profiling by over-expressing DIMM throughout the embryonic nervous system. We compared profiles from experimental (elav>dimm) and control (elav-GAL4) embryos at 22-26 hr and 28-32 hr after egg laying (AEL). The design was intended to identify transcripts consistently up-regulated shortly after the induction of DIMM; in so doing, we could circumvent the lethality that ensues in late embryonic, and/ or by early larval stages, due to pan-neuronal DIMM expression.

Description
PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase)/AKT and RAS/MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) pathway coactivation in the prostate epithelium promotes both epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), which is currently incurable. To study the dynamic regulation of the EMT process, we developed novel genetically defined cellular and in vivo model systems from which epithelial, EMT and mesenchymal-like tumor cells with Pten deletion and Kras activation can be isolated. When cultured individually, each population has the capacity to regenerate all three tumor cell populations, indicative of epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity. Despite harboring the same genetic alterations, mesenchymal-like tumor cells are resistant to PI3K and MAPK pathway inhibitors, suggesting that epigenetic mechanisms may regulate the EMT process, as well as dictate the heterogeneous responses of cancer cells to therapy. Among differentially expressed epigenetic regulators, the chromatin remodeling protein HMGA2 is significantly upregulated in EMT and mesenchymal-like tumors cells, as well as in human mCRPC. Knockdown of HMGA2, or suppressing HMGA2 expression with the histone deacetylase inhibitor LBH589, inhibits epithelial–mesenchymal plasticity and stemness activities in vitro and markedly reduces tumor growth and metastasis in vivo through successful targeting of EMT and mesenchymal-like tumor cells. Importantly, LBH589 treatment in combination with castration prevents mCRPC development and significantly prolongs survival following castration by enhancing p53 and androgen receptor acetylation and in turn sensitizing castration-resistant mesenchymal-like tumor cells to androgen deprivation therapy. Taken together, these findings demonstrate that cellular plasticity is regulated epigenetically, and that mesenchymal-like tumor cell populations in mCRPC that are resistant to conventional and targeted therapies can be effectively treated with the epigenetic inhibitor LBH589. Overall design: RNA was extracted from pooled Epithelial, EMT and Mesenchymal-like tumor cells isolated by FACS sorting CD45-CD31-Ter119-EpCAM+GFP-, CD45-CD31-Ter119-EpCAM+GFP+, and CD45-CD31-Ter119-EpCAM-GFP+ cells, respectively, from the prostates of 10-12 week old Pb-Cre+/-;PtenL/L;KrasG12D/+;Vim-GFP (CPKV) mice (n=17) and separated into two technical replicates. Paired-end sequencing data with read lengths of 100 bp were generated using the Illumina HiSeq2000 system.
