Foreman*‡§ Approximately 50% of children with ependymoma will suffer from tumor recurrences that will ultimately lead to death. Devel- opment of more effective therapies and patient stratification in ependymoma mandates better prognostication. In this study, tumor gene expression microarray profiles from pediatric ependymoma clinical samples were subject to ontological analyses to identify outcome-associated biological factors. Histology was subsequently used to evaluate the results of ontological analyses. Ontology analyses revealed that genes associated with nonrecurrent ependymoma were predominantly immune function-related. Addition- ally, increased expression of immune-related genes was correlated with longer time to progression in recurrent ependymoma. Of Downloaded from those genes associated with both the nonrecurrent phenotype and that positively correlated with time to progression, 95% were associated with immune function. Histological analysis of a subset of these immune function genes revealed that their expression was restricted to a subpopulation of tumor-infiltrating cells. Analysis of tumor-infiltrating immune cells showed increased infil- tration of CD4؉ T cells in the nonrecurrent ependymomas. No genomic sequences for SV40, BK, JC, or Merkel polyomaviruses were found in nonrecurrent ependymoma. This study reveals that up-regulation of immune function genes is the predominant http://www.jimmunol.org/ ontology associated with a good prognosis in ependymoma and it provides preliminary evidence of a beneficial host proinflam- matory and/or Ag-specific immune response.

Actin turnover is mandatory for migration in normal and malignant cells. In epithelial cancers invasion is frequently accompanied by epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT). In EMT, cancer cells acquire a migratory phenotype through transcriptional reprogramming. EMT requires substantial re-organization of actin. During the past decade, new actin regulating proteins have been discovered. Among these are members of the formin family. To study formin expression in tissues and cells, antibodies for detection of formin proteins FMNL1 (Formin-like protein 1), FMNL2 (Formin-like protein 2) and FHOD1 (Formin homology 2 domain containing protein 1) were used.

E. Carey at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI. The UM-SCC cell lines were derived from eight patients with SCC of the upper aerodigestive tract (supplemental Table 1). Patient age at tumor diagnosis ranged from 37 to 72 years. The cell lines selected were obtained from patients with stage I-IV tumors, distributed among oral, pharyngeal and laryngeal sites. All the patients had aggressive disease, with early recurrence and death within two years of therapy. Cell lines established from single isolates of a patient specimen are designated by a numeric designation, and where isolates from two time points or anatomical sites were obtained, the designation includes an alphabetical suffix (i.e., "A" or "B"). The cell lines were maintained in Eagle's minimal essential media supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and penicillin/streptomycin.

Herein, we present single-cell tran- scriptome profiling of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent histological lung cancer type diagnosed at stage IV in over 40% of all cases. From 208,506 cells populating the normal tissues or early to metastatic stage cancer in 44 patients, we identify a cancer cell subtype deviating from the normal differentiation trajectory and dominating the metastatic stage. In all stages, the stromal and immune cell dynamics reveal ontological and functional changes that create a pro-tumoral and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Normal resident myeloid cell populations are gradually replaced with monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells, along with T-cell exhaustion. This extensive single-cell analysis enhances our understanding of molecular and cellular dynamics in metastatic lung cancer and reveals potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer-microenvironment interactions. 1 Samsung Genome Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul 06351, Korea.
