Specific oncogene activation of the cell of origin in mucosal melanoma - Nature Communications
Abstract Mucosal melanoma (MM) is a deadly cancer derived from mucosal melanocytes. To test the consequences of MM genetics, we develop a zebrafish model in which all melanocytes experience CCND1 expression and loss of PTEN and TP53. Surprisingly, melanoma only develops from melanocytes lining internal organs, analogous to the location of patient MM. We find that zebrafish MMs have a unique chromatin landscape from cutaneous melanomas.
Leukemia-derived apelin selects endothelial niche clones to promote tumorigenesis
Abstract Hematopoietic stem cells are regulated by endothelial and mesenchymal stromal cells in the marrow niche1-3. Leukemogenesis was long believed to be solely driven by genetic perturbations in hematopoietic cells but introduction of genetic mutations in the microenvironment demonstrated the ability of niche cells to drive disease progression4-8. The mechanisms by which the stem cell niche induces leukemia remain poorly understood.
