    Abstract
    Desmoplastic small round cell tumor (DSRCT) is a rare, aggressive sarcoma driven by the EWSR1::WT1 chimeric transcription factor. Despite this unique oncogenic driver, DSRCT displays a polyphenotypic differentiation of unknown causality. Using single -cell multi-omics on 12 samples from five patients, we find that DSRCT tumor cells cluster into consistent subpopulations with partially overlapping lineage- and metabolism -related transcriptional programs. In vitro modeling shows that high EWSR1::WT1 DNA -binding activity associates with most lineage -related states, in contrast to glycolytic and profibrotic states. Single -cell chromatin accessibility analysis suggests that EWSR1::WT1 binding site variability may drive distinct lineage -related transcriptional programs, supporting some level of cell -intrinsic plasticity. Spatial transcriptomics reveals that glycolytic and profibrotic states specifically localize within hypoxic niches at the periphery of tumor cell islets, suggesting an additional role of tumor cell -extrinsic microenvironmental cues. We finally identify a single -cell transcriptomics-derived epithelial signature associated with improved patient survival, highlighting the clinical relevance of our findings.

    • Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
    • We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
    • We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
    • The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
    • Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
