Insertional Mutagenesis Identifies a STAT3/Arid1b/ b-catenin Pathway Driving Neurofibroma Initiation

Type:: Article
Description/Abstract:: Wu et al. map an Nf1-Stat3-Arid1b/ b-catenin pathway that initiates Neurofibromatosis type 1 (Nf1) neurofibromas, using unbiased insertional mutagenesis screening. Stat3 transcriptionally represses Gsk3b and Arid1b, thereby activating b-catenin in Schwann cell precursors and resulting in neurofibroma initiation and maintenance. Stat3-mediated modification plays a role in early tumorigenesis.

Myeloid Malignancies with Chromosome 5q Deletions Acquire a Dependency on an Intrachromosomal NF-kB Gene Network

Type:: Article
Description/Abstract:: Chromosome 5q deletions (del[5q]) are common in high-risk (HR) myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML); however, the gene regulatory networks that sustain these aggressive diseases are unknown. Reduced miR-146a expression in del(5q) HR MDS/AML and miR-146a/ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs) results in TRAF6/NF-kB activation. Increased survival and proliferation of HSPCs from miR-146alow HR MDS/AML is sustained by a neighboring haploid gene, SQSTM1 (p62), expressed from the intact 5q allele. Overexpression of p62 from the intact allele occurs through NF-kB-dependent feedforward signaling mediated by miR-146a deficiency. p62 is necessary for TRAF6-mediated NF-kB signaling, as disrupting the p62-TRAF6 signaling complex results in cell-cycle arrest and apoptosis of MDS/AML cells. Thus, del(5q) HR MDS/AML employs an intrachromosomal gene network involving loss of miR-146a and haploid overexpression of p62 via NF-kB to sustain TRAF6/NF-kB signaling for cell survival and proliferation. Interfering with the p62-TRAF6 signaling complex represents a therapeutic option in miR-146a-deficient and aggressive del(5q) MDS/AML.
