- The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) Research Network has profiled and analyzed large numbers of human tumors to discover molecular aberrations at the DNA, RNA, protein and epigenetic levels. The resulting rich data provide a major opportunity to develop an integrated picture of commonalities, differences and emergent themes across tumor lineages. The Pan-Cancer initiative compares the first 12 tumor types profiled by TCGA. Analysis of the molecular aberrations and their functional roles across tumor types will teach us how to extend therapies effective in one cancer type to others with a similar genomic profile. © 2013 Nature America, Inc.

- Comparative analysis of multiple genomes in a phylogenetic framework dramatically improves the precision and sensitivity of evolutionary inference, producing more robust results than single-genome analyses can provide. The genomes of 12 Drosophila species, ten of which are presented here for the first time (sechellia, simulans, yakuba, erecta, ananassae, persimilis, willistoni, mojavensis, virilis and grimshawi), illustrate how rates and patterns of sequence divergence across taxa can illuminate evolutionary processes on a genomic scale. These genome sequences augment the formidable genetic tools that have made Drosophila melanogaster a pre-eminent model for animal genetics, and will further catalyse fundamental research on mechanisms of development, cell biology, genetics, disease, neurobiology, behaviour, physiology and evolution. Despite remarkable similarities among these Drosophila species, we identified many putatively non-neutral changes in protein-coding genes, non-coding RNA genes, and cis-regulatory regions. These may prove to underlie differences in the ecology and behaviour of these diverse species.

- Platelets have been shown to enhance the survival of lymphoma cell lines, but it is unclear if they play a role in lymphoma. Here we investigate a potential role for platelets and/or megakaryocytes in Eµ-myc lymphoma progression. Eµ-myc tumour cells were transplanted into recipient wild-type control mice, Mpl-/-, or TpoTg mice, which exhibit normal, low and high platelet and megakaryocyte counts, respectively. Transplanted TpoTg mice exhibited enhanced lymphoma progression with increased WBC counts, spleen and lymph node weights and enhanced liver infiltration when compared to wild-type. Conversely, tumour bearing Mpl-/- mice presented with reduced WBC counts, lymph node weights and less liver infiltration when compared to wild-type. Utilizing a Mpl-deficient thrombocytopenic immunocompromised mouse model, our results were confirmed with the human NHL GRANTA cell line. While we found that platelets and platelet released molecules supported Eµ-myc tumour cell survival in vitro, pharmacological inhibition of platelet function or anticoagulation in Eµ-myc transplanted wild-type mice did not improve disease outcome. Furthermore, transient platelet depletion or sustained Bcl-xL dependent thrombocytopenia did not alter lymphoma progression. Cytokine analysis of the bone marrow fluid microenvironment revealed increased levels of the proinflammatory molecule interleukin (IL)-1 in TpoTg mice, whereas levels were lowered in Mpl-/- mice. Moreover, RNA sequencing of blood-resident Eµ-myclymphoma cells from TpoTgand wild-type mice after tumour transplant revealed upregulation of hallmark gene sets associated with inflammatory response in TpoTg mice. We propose that a pro-inflammatory microenvironment in TpoTgmice promoted lymphoma progression.

- Global grape production could generate up to 13 Mt/yr of wasted biomass. The compositions of Cabernet Sauvignon (red marc) and Sauvignon Blanc (white marc) were analyzed with a view to using marc as raw material for biofuel production. On a dry weight basis, 31-54% w/w of the grape marc consisted of carbohydrate, of which 47-80% was soluble in aqueous media. Ethanol insoluble residues consisted mainly of polyphenols, pectic polysaccharides, heteroxylans and cellulose. Acid and thermal pre-treatments were investigated for their effects on subsequent cellulose saccharification. A 0.5M sulfuric acid pre-treatment yielded a 10% increase in the amount of liberated glucose after enzymatic saccharification. The theoretical amount of bioethanol that could be produced by fermentation of grape marc was up to 400 L/t. However, bioethanol from only soluble carbohydrates could yield 270 L/t, leaving a polyphenol enriched fraction that may be used in animal feed or as fertilizer.
