(Submitter supplied) Cancer stem cells (CSCs) display plasticity and self-renewal properties reminiscent of normal tissue stem cells, but the events responsible for their emergence remain obscure. We recently identified CSCs in Ewing sarcoma family tumors (ESFTs) and showed that they retain mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) plasticity. In the present study, we addressed the mechanisms that underlie ESFT CSC development. We show that the EWS-FLI-1 fusion gene, associated with 85%-90% of ESFTs and believed to initiate their pathogenesis, induces expression of the embryonic stem cell (ESC) genes OCT4, SOX2, and NANOG in human pediatric MSCs (hpMSCs) but not in their adult counterparts. more...

(Submitter supplied) Ewing’s sarcoma family tumors (ESFT) are the second most common bone malignancy in children and young adults, characterized by the expression of a unique chromosomal translocation, that in 85% of cases lead to the expression of the EWS-FLI-1 fusion protein. ESW-FLI-1 functions as an aberrant transcription factor that can both induce and suppress its target genes. We have recently demonstrated that microRNA (miRNA) 145 is a direct EWS-FLI-1 target implicated in ESFT development. more...

(Submitter supplied) Ewing sarcoma is a prototypical fusion transcription factor-associated pediatric cancer that expresses EWS/FLI or highly related fusions. EWS/FLI dysregulates transcription to induce and maintain sarcomagenesis, but the mechanisms utilized are not fully understood. We therefore sought to define the global effects of EWS/FLI on chromatin conformation and transcription in Ewing sarcoma. We found that EWS/FLI (and EWS/ERG) genomic localization is largely conserved across multiple patient-derived Ewing sarcoma cell lines. more...

(Submitter supplied) Although EWS/FLI-1 fusion protein is responsible for most Ewing’s sarcoma family tumors (ESFT), the function of native EWS remains largely unknown. Here, we first showed that EWS repressed protein expression in a tethering assay. mRNAs bound to EWS were determined by RNA-immunoprecipitation Chip assay, and one of them, proline-rich Akt substrate of 40 kDa (PRAS40) mRNA, directly interacted with EWS. more...

(Submitter supplied) CIC-DUX4 sarcoma (CDS) or CIC-rearranged sarcoma is a subcategory of small round cell sarcoma resembling the morphological phenotypes of Ewing sarcoma (ES). Recent clinicopathologic and molecular genetic analyses indicate that CDS is an independent disease entity from ES. Although a few ancillary markers have been used in the differential diagnosis of CDS, additional CDS-specific biomarkers are needed in challenging diagnosis for a more definitive classification. more...

(Submitter supplied) Expression profiles were generated from hESC-derived neural crest stem cells following transduction with GFP control vector or EWS-FLI1 vector. Expression was analyzed in stem cell conditions 5 days after transduction (undifferentiated conditions) and after 6 weeks in differentiation media (differentiation conditions). Changes in gene expression over time were compared between control and EWS-FLI1 expresssing cells.

(Submitter supplied) Fusion-transcription factors (fusion-TFs) represent a class of driver oncoproteins that are difficult to therapeutically target. Recently, protein degradation has emerged as a strategy to target these challenging oncoproteins. The mechanisms that regulate fusion-TF stability, however, are generally unknown. Using CRISPR-Cas9 screening, we discovered tripartite motif- containing 8 (TRIM8) as an E3 ubiquitin ligase that ubiquitinates and degrades EWS/FLI, a driver fusion-TF in Ewing sarcoma. more...

(Submitter supplied) Ewing sarcoma (EwS) is associated with poor prognosis despite current multimodal therapy. Targeting of EWS-FLI-1, the fusion protein responsible for its pathogenesis, and its principal downstream targets has not yet produced satisfactory therapeutic options, fuelling the search for alternative approaches. Here, we show that the oncofoetal RNA-binding protein Lin28B regulates the stability of EWS-FLI-1 mRNA in about 10% of EwS. more...
