(Submitter supplied) Recently the cancer stem cell (CSC) model has been put forward to describe how a subset of cells within the tumor is responsible for tumor growth and heterogeneity. Wilms' tumor (WT), the most common pediatric renal malignancy, arises from developmentally arrested early renal progenitors. WT NCAM1+ALDH1+ CSCs have been recently isolated and shown to localize to tumor blastema. Herein by generating 'blastema'-only WT xenografts composed solely by cells expressing the SIX2 and NCAM1 embryonic renal stem cell markers, we surprisingly show that sorted ALDH1+ WT CSCs are phenotypically not the earliest renal stem cells. more...

(Submitter supplied) Downregulation of specific microRNAs contribute to epithelial-mesenchymal transition of Wilms' tumor cancer initiating cells. In order to gain insight into the biology of initiating cells/cancer stem cells (CIC/CSCs) in Wilms' tumor, we compared the microRNA expression profile of un-sorted propagatable WT xenografts (p-WT Xn), p-WT NCAM+ALDH1+-derived Xn and human fetal kidneys (hFKs). Global microRNA expression analysis showed specific microRNAs to differentially express identifying a strong miRNA signature for the NCAM+ALDH1+ WT CICs.

(Submitter supplied) To characterize the in vivo role of DROSHA mutations during kidney development and their oncogenic potential, we analyzed mouse lines with either a targeted deletion of Drosha or an inducible expression of human DROSHA carrying a tumor-specific E1147K mutation that acts in a dominant negative manner.

(Submitter supplied) Wilms tumors are pediatric cancers thought to arise from kidney-specific stem cells. In order to identify transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms that drive these malignant cells, we compared genomewide chromatin profiles of Wilms tumors to embryonic stem (ES) cells and normal kidney.

(Submitter supplied) When assembling a nephron during development a multipotent stem cell pool becomes restricted as differentiation ensues. A faulty differentiation arrest in this process leads to transformation and initiation of a Wilms' tumor. Mapping these transitions with respective surface markers affords accessibility to specific cell subpopulations. NCAM1 and CD133 have been previously suggested to mark human renal progenitor populations. more...

(Submitter supplied) Wilms Tumor, the most common pediatric kidney cancer, evolves from the failure of terminal differentiation of the embryonic kidney. Here we show that over-expression of the heterochronic regulator Lin28 during kidney development in mice markedly expands nephrogenic progenitors by blocking their final wave of differentiation, ultimately resulting in pathology highly reminiscent of Wilms tumor.

(Submitter supplied) Mature nephrons originate from a small population of uninduced nephrogenic progenitor cells (NPs) within the cap mesenchyme. These cells are characterized by the coexpression of SIX2 and CITED1. Many studies on mouse models as well as on human pluripotent stem cells have advanced our knowledge of NPs, but very little is known about this population in humans, since it is exhausted before birth and strategies for its direct isolation are still limited. more...

(Submitter supplied) p53 limits the self-renewing ability of a variety of stem cells. Here, contrary to its classical role in restraining cell proliferation, we demonstrate a divergent function of p53 in maintenance of self-renewal of the nephron progenitor population in the embryonic mouse kidney. p53-null nephron progenitor cells (NPC) exhibit progressive loss of the self-renewing progenitor niche in the cap mesenchyme, identified by Cited1 and Six2 expression, and loss of cap integrity. more...

(Submitter supplied) SIX2 is expressed by the self-renewing nephron progenitors in the human fetal kidney. We have also discovered that SIX1 is expressed in nephron progenitor population of the human fetal kidney, which is in contrast to the mouse. We performed ChIP-seq of SIX1 and SIX2 in order to identify the target genes of each factor and compare the role that each factor plays in transcriptional regulation of the nephron progenitors. more...

(Submitter supplied) Nephron endowment is determined by the self-renewal and induction of a nephron progenitor pool established at the onset of kidney development. In the mouse, the related transcriptional regulators Six1 and Six2 play non-overlapping roles in nephron progenitors. Transient Six1 activity prefigures, and is essential for, active nephrogenesis. In contrast, Six2 maintains later progenitor self-renewal from the onset of nephrogenesis. more...
