Description
E-cadherin downregulation in cancer cells is associated with epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and metastatic prowess, but the underlying mechanisms are incompletely characterized. In this study, we probed E-cadherin expression at the plasma membrane as a functional assay to identify genes involved in E-cadherin downregulation. The assay was based on the E-cadherin-dependent invasion properties of the intracellular pathogen Listeria monocytogenes. On the basis of a functional readout, automated microscopy and computer-assisted image analysis were used to screen siRNAs targeting 7,000 human genes. The validity of the screen was supported by its definion of several known regulators of E-cadherin expression, including ZEB1, HDAC1 and MMP14. We identified three new regulators (FLASH, CASP7 and PCGF1), the silencing of which was sufficient to restore high levels of E-cadherin transcription. Additionally, we identified two new regulators (FBXL5 and CAV2), the silencing of which

Description
Senescence is a cellular phenotype present in health and disease, characterized by a stable cell cycle arrest and an inflammatory response, denominated senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The SASP is important in influencing the behaviour of neighbouring cells and altering the microenvironment; yet, this role has been mainly attributed to soluble factors. Here, we show that both the soluble factors in addition to small extracellular vesicles (sEV) are capable of transmitting paracrine senescence to nearby cells. Analysis of individual cells internalizing sEV, using a Cre-reporter system, show a positive correlation between sEV uptake and senescence activation. Interestingly, we find an increase in the number of multivesicular bodies during senescence in vivo. sEV protein characterization by mass spectrometry (MS) followed by a functional siRNA screen identify the Interferon Induced Transmembrane Protein 3 (IFITM3) as partially responsible for transmitting senescence to normal cells. Altogether, we found that sEV contribute to paracrine senescence. Overall design: SASP related mRNA transcripts in HFFF2 treated with sEV from iRAS cells in comparison with HFFF2 treated with sEV from iC cells

Description
Despite continual efforts to rationalize a prognostic stratification of patients with esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC) before treatment, current staging system only shows limited success owing to the lack of molecular and genetic markers that reflect prognostic features of the tumor. To develop molecular predictors of prognosis, we used systems-level characterization of tumor transcriptome. Using DNA microarray, genome-wide gene expression profiling was performed on 75 biopsy samples from patients with untreated EAC. Various statistical and informatical methods were applied to gene expression data to identify potential biomarkers associated with prognosis. Potential marker genes were validated in an independent cohort using quantitiative RT-PCR to measure gene expression. Distinct subgroups of EAC were uncovered by systems-level characterization of tumor transcriptome. We also identified a six-gene expression signature that could be used to predict overall survival (OS) of EAC patients. In particular, expression of SPARC and SPP1 was a strong independent predictor of OS, and a combined gene expression signature with these two genes was associated with prognosis (P < 0.024), even when all relevant pathological variables were considered together in multivariate Cox hazard regression analysis. Our findings suggest that molecular features reflected in gene expression signatures may dictate the prognosis of EAC patients, and these gene expression signatures can be used to predict the likelihood of prognosis at the time of diagnosis and before treatment.
