abstract = {Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor (ATRT) is an aggressive
central nervous system tumor characterized by loss of
SMARCB1/INI1 protein expression and comprises three distinct
molecular groups, ATRT-TYR, ATRT-MYC and ATRT-SHH. ATRT-SHH
represents the largest molecular group and is heterogeneous
with regard to age, tumor location and epigenetic profile.
We, therefore, aimed to investigate if heterogeneity within
ATRT-SHH might also have biological and clinical importance.
Consensus clustering of DNA methylation profiles and
confirmatory t-SNE analysis of 65 ATRT-SHH yielded three
robust molecular subgroups, i.e., SHH-1A, SHH-1B and SHH-2.
These subgroups differed by median age of onset (SHH-1A: 18
months, SHH-1B: 107 months, SHH-2: 13 months) and tumor
location (SHH-1A: $88\%$ supratentorial; SHH-1B: $85\%$
supratentorial; SHH-2: $93\%$ infratentorial, often
extending to the pineal region). Subgroups showed comparable
SMARCB1 mutational profiles, but pathogenic/likely
pathogenic SMARCB1 germline variants were over-represented
in SHH-2 $(63\%)$ as compared to SHH-1A $(20\%)$ and SHH-1B
$(0\%).$ Protein expression of proneural marker ASCL1
(enriched in SHH-1B) and glial markers OLIG2 and GFAP
(absent in SHH-2) as well as global mRNA expression patterns
differed, but all subgroups were characterized by
overexpression of SHH as well as Notch pathway members. In a
Drosophila model, knockdown of Snr1 (the fly homologue of
SMARCB1) in hedgehog activated cells not only altered
hedgehog signaling, but also caused aberrant Notch signaling
and formation of tumor-like structures. Finally, on survival
analysis, molecular subgroup and age of onset (but not ASCL1
staining status) were independently associated with overall
survival, older patients (> 3 years) harboring SHH-1B
experiencing relatively favorable outcome. In conclusion,
ATRT-SHH comprises three subgroups characterized by SHH and
Notch pathway activation, but divergent molecular and
clinical features. Our data suggest that molecular
subgrouping of ATRT-SHH has prognostic relevance and might
aid to stratify patients within future clinical trials.},
