Project description:Kasumi-1 AML cells that were transfected in triplicate with AML1-ETO or luciferase siRNA constructs by either Amaxa nucleofection or Biorad siLentFect and incubated for 96 hours. Microarrays used to discover an AML1-ETO signature for a GE-HTS screen to identify AML1-ETO modulators. Experiment Overall Design: Kasumi-1 AML cells incubated for 96 hours after they were transfected in triplicate with AML1-ETO or luciferase siRNA constructs by either Amaxa nucleofection or Biorad siLentFect along with three control samples not transfected with a construct.
Project description:U937 AML cells that express an inducible AML1-ETO construct under the control of the tetracycline promoter. Microarrays used to discover an AML1-ETO signature for a GE-HTS screen to identify AML1-ETO modulators. Experiment Overall Design: U937 AML cells that express an inducible AML1-ETO construct under the control of the tetracycline promoter at 0, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours and corresponding controls (2 replicates each).
Project description:The AML1/ETO fusion protein is essential to the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and is well recognized for its dominant-negative effect on the co-existing wild-type protein AML1. However, the involvement of wild-type AML1 in AML1/ETO-driven leukemogenesis remains elusive. Through chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing, computational analysis plus a series of experimental validations, we report here that AML1 is able to orchestrate the expression of AML1/ETO targets regardless of being activated or repressed, via forming a complex with AML1/ETO and via recruiting the cofactor. 4 ChIP-seq assays were used to identify the high confidence binding regions of AML1-ETO and AML1 in t(8;21) AML Kasumi-1 cell lines. The anti-AML1 (N20) antibody targets the N-terminus of AML1 and recognizes both AML1 and AML1/ETO; the anti-AML1 (C19) antibody targets the C-terminus of AML1 and recognizes AML1 but not AML1/ETO; the anti-ETO (C20) antibody targets the C-terminus of ETO and specifically recognizes AML1/ETO. 2 ChIP-seq assays were used to identify the binding regions of AML1 in human macrophage U937 cell lines. And the total input was used as control.
Project description:Compare the gene expression profile among human CD34+ cord blood cells infected with MIGR1, MIGR1-AML1-ETO or MIGR1-AML1-ETO∆NHR1 AML1-ETO promotes the self-renewal of human hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs). We found deletion of NHR1 domain abrogates AML1-ETO induced expasion of HSPCs. GFP+CD34+ human cord blood cells were sorted by FACS 72 hours after the infection for RNA extraction and hybridyzation for Affymetrix microarrays.
Project description:MEIS2 collaborates with AML1-ETO in inducing acute myeloid leukemia in a murine bone marrow transplantation model We employed RNA-seq to assess similarities/differences among murine leukemic bone marrow samples transduced with either AML1-ETO/Meis2, AML1-ETO9a/Meis2, or AML1-ETO9a
Project description:High-resolution proteomic analysis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) stem cells identified phospholipase C- and Ca++-signaling pathways to be differentially regulated in AML1-ETO (AE) driven leukemia. Phospholipase C gamma 1 (Plcg1) could be identified as a direct target of the AE fusion. Genetic Plcg1 inactivation abrogated disease initiation by AE, reduced intracellular Ca++-release and inhibited AE-driven self-renewal programs. In AE-induced leukemia, Plcg1 deletion significantly reduced disease penetrance, number of leukemia stem cells and abrogated leukemia development in secondary recipient hosts. In human AE-positive leukemic cells inactivation of Plcg1 reduced colony formation and AML development in vivo. In contrast, Plcg1 was dispensable for maintenance of murine and human hematopoietic stem- and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Pharmacologic inhibition of Ca++-signaling downstream of Plcg1 resulted in impaired proliferation and self-renewal capacity in AE-driven AML. Thus, the Plcg1 pathway represents a novel specific vulnerability of AE-driven leukemia and poses an important new therapeutic target.
Project description:The t(8;21) translocation fuses the DNA binding domain of the hematopoietic master regulator RUNX1 to the ETO protein. The resultant RUNX1/ETO fusion protein is a leukemia-initiating transcription factor that interferes with RUNX1 function. The result of this interference is a block in differentiation and, finally, the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). To obtain insights into RUNX1/ETO-dependant alterations of the epigenetic landscape we measured genome-wide RUNX1- and RUNX1/ETO bound regions in t(8;21) cells and assessed to what extent the effects of RUNX1/ETO on the epigenome depend on its continued expression in established leukemic cells. To this end we determined dynamic alterations of histone acetylation, RNA Polymerase II binding and RUNX1 occupancy in the presence or absence of RUNX1/ETO using a knockdown approach. Combined global assessments of chromatin accessibility and kinetic gene expression data show that RUNX1/ETO controls the expression of important regulators of hematopoietic differentiation and self-renewal. We show that selective removal of RUNX1/ETO leads to a widespread reversal of epigenetic reprogramming and a genome-wide re-distribution of RUNX1 binding, resulting in the inhibition of leukemic proliferation and self-renewal and the induction of differentiation. This demonstrates that RUNX1/ETO represents a pivotal therapeutic target in AML.
