    Modern Pathology (2017) 30, 1338–1366 1338 © 2017 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0893-3952/17 $32.00 Clinical utility of recently identified diagnostic, prognostic, and predictive molecular biomarkers in mature B-cell neoplasms Arantza Onaindia1, L Jeffrey Medeiros2 and Keyur P Patel2 1Instituto de Investigacion Marques de Valdecilla (IDIVAL)/Hospital Universitario Marques de Valdecilla, Santander, Spain and 2Department of Hematopathology, MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX, USA Genomic profiling studies have provided new insights into the pathogenesis of mature B-cell neoplasms and have identified markers with prognostic impact. Recurrent mutations in tumor-suppressor genes (TP53, BIRC3, ATM), and common signaling pathways, such as the B-cell receptor (CD79A, CD79B, CARD11, TCF3, ID3), Toll- like receptor (MYD88), NOTCH (NOTCH1/2), nuclear factor-κB, and mitogen activated kinase signaling, have been identified in B-cell neoplasms. Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, Burkitt lymphoma, Waldenström macroglobulinemia, hairy cell leukemia, and marginal zone lymphomas of splenic, nodal, and extranodal types represent examples of B-cell neoplasms in which novel molecular biomarkers have been discovered in recent years. In addition, ongoing retrospective correlative and prospective outcome studies have resulted in an enhanced understanding of the clinical utility of novel biomarkers. This progress is reflected in the 2016 update of the World Health Organization classification of lymphoid neoplasms, which lists as many as 41 mature B-cell neoplasms (including provisional categories). Consequently, molecular genetic studies are increasingly being applied for the clinical workup of many of these neoplasms. In this review, we focus on the diagnostic, prognostic, and/or therapeutic utility of molecular biomarkers in mature B-cell neoplasms.

In this paper, we aim to review the current state of the knowledge regarding ChS. We discuss the genetic, epigenetic, and molecular abnormalities underlying its substantial biological and clinical heterogeneity. This review summarizes the critical genetic and molecular drivers of ChS development and progression, contributing to its radio- and chemotherapy resistance. We describe genomic aberrations and point mutations, as well as epigenetic modifications and deregulated signal transduction pathways. We Citation: Zaj ˛ac,A.; Król, S.K.; provide an insight into the stem-like characteristics and immunophenotype of ChS.

Frye2,5, Michael J. Emanuele1,2, Adrienne D. Cox1,2,6, Channing J. Der1,2* Stabilization of the MYC oncoprotein by KRAS signaling critically promotes the growth of pancreatic ductal adeno- carcinoma (PDAC). Thus, understanding how MYC protein stability is regulated may lead to effective therapies. Here, we used a previously developed, flow cytometry–based assay that screened a library of >800 protein kinase inhibitors and identified compounds that promoted either the stability or degradation of MYC in a KRAS-mutant PDAC cell line. We validated compounds that stabilized or destabilized MYC and then focused on one compound, Downloaded from UNC10112785, that induced the substantial loss of MYC protein in both two-dimensional (2D) and 3D cell cultures. We determined that this compound is a potent CDK9 inhibitor with a previously uncharacterized scaffold, caused MYC loss through both transcriptional and posttranslational mechanisms, and suppresses PDAC anchorage- dependent and anchorage-independent growth. We discovered that CDK9 enhanced MYC protein stability 62 through a previously unknown, KRAS-independent mechanism involving direct phosphorylation of MYC at Ser .

  • PRKCQ Promotes Oncogenic Growth and Anoikis Resistance of a Subset
    Byerly et al. Breast Cancer Research (2016) 18:95 DOI 10.1186/s13058-016-0749-6 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access PRKCQ promotes oncogenic growth and anoikis resistance of a subset of triple- negative breast cancer cells Jessica Byerly1†, Gwyneth Halstead-Nussloch1†, Koichi Ito1, Igor Katsyv3 and Hanna Y. Irie1,2* Abstract Background: The protein kinase C (PKC) family comprises distinct classes of proteins, many of which are implicated in diverse cellular functions. Protein tyrosine kinase C theta isoform (PRKCQ)/PKCθ, a member of the novel PKC family, may have a distinct isoform-specific role in breast cancer. PKCθ is preferentially expressed in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) compared to other breast tumor subtypes. We hypothesized that PRKCQ/PKCθ critically regulates growth and survival of a subset of TNBC cells. Methods: To elucidate the role of PRKCQ/PKCθ in regulating growth and anoikis resistance, we used both gain and loss of function to modulate expression of PRKCQ. We enhanced expression of PKCθ (kinase-active or inactive) in non-transformed breast epithelial cells (MCF-10A) and assessed effects on epidermal growth factor (EGF)- independent growth, anoikis, and migration. We downregulated expression of PKCθ in TNBC cells, and determined effects on in vitro and in vivo growth and survival. TNBC cells were also treated with a small molecule inhibitor to assess requirement for PKCθ kinase activity in the growth of TNBC cells. Results: PRKCQ/PKCθ can promote oncogenic phenotypes when expressed in non-transformed MCF-10A mammary epithelial cells; PRKCQ/PKCθ enhances anchorage-independent survival, growth-factor-independent proliferation, and migration. PKCθ expression promotes retinoblastoma (Rb) phosphorylation and cell-cycle progression under growth factor-deprived conditions that typically induce cell-cycle arrest of MCF-10A breast epithelial cells.

ISM is based on (i) molecular profi ling and ex vivo drug sensitivity and resistance testing (DSRT) of patients’ cancer cells to 187 oncology drugs, (ii) clinical implementation of therapies predicted to be effective, and (iii) studying consecutive samples from the treated patients to understand the basis of resistance. Here, application of ISM to 28 samples from patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) uncovered fi ve major taxonomic drug-response sub- types based on DSRT profi les, some with distinct genomic features (e.g., MLL gene fusions in subgroup IV and FLT3 -ITD mutations in subgroup V). Therapy based on DSRT resulted in several clinical responses.
