Project description:NB4 is an APL derived cell line, carrying the t(15;17) translocation and expressing the PML/RARa fusion protein. Still, an important question that remains to be addressed is whether PML/RARa target genes are transcriptionally suppressed in primary APL cells and re-activated in all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) treated NB4 cells. Gene expression of NB4 cells treated with ATRA at different time points were analyzed.

Project description:PML-RARa contributes to the development of APL through repression of genes important in myeloid development. Through a global approach, we have identified 2,979 high quality PML-RARa binding sites in ZnSO4 induced PR9 cells. By integration the gene expression data, we found that PML/RARa target genes are transcriptionally suppressed in primary APL cells and re-activated in ATRA treated NB4 cells. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Project description:To identify the top 20 up-regulated genes in NB4 TRIB3 shRNA cells in comparison with NB4 control shRNA cells, we examined the microarray gene expression profile of these groups above. Despite the fact that combined therapy of all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) with arsenic trioxide (ATO) or chemotherapy dramatically improves the prognosis of patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), these regimens can cause systemic infections and secondary leukemias. Here we report that expression of the pseudokinase Tribble 3 (TRIB3) associates positively with APL progression and therapeutic resistance. The elevated TRIB3 expression promotes APL by interacting with PML-RARa and suppressing its sumoylation, ubiquitylation and degradation. This represses PML nuclear body assembly, p53-mediated senescence, cell differentiation, and supports cellular self-renewal. Genetically inhibiting Trib3 expression or disturbing the TRIB3/PML-RARa interaction produces potent therapeutic efficacy against APL and has synergic anti-APL effects when used in combination with ATRA or ATO by promoting PML-RARa degradation and PML expression. Our study provides new insight into APL pathogenesis and a new therapeutic option against APL.

Project description:Treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) results in terminal differentiation of leukemic cells toward neutrophil granulocytes. Administration of ATRA leads to massive changes in gene expression, including down-regulation of cell proliferation-related genes and induction of genes involved in immune function. One of the most induced genes in APL NB4 cells is transglutaminase 2 (TG2). RNAi-mediated stable silencing of TG2 in NB4 cells (TG2-KD NB4) coupled with whole genome microarray analysis revealed that TG2 is involved in the expression of a large number of ATRA-regulated genes. The affected genes participate in granulocyte functions and their silencing lead to reduced adhesive, migratory and phagocytic capacity of neutrophils and less superoxide production. The expression of genes related to cell cycle control also changed, suggesting that TG2 regulates myeloid cell differentiation. CC chemokines CCL2, 3, 22, 24 and cytokines IL1B and IL8 involved in the development of differentiation syndrome (DS) are expressed at significantly lower levels in TG2-KD NB4 cells than in wild-type NB4 cells upon ATRA treatment. Based on our results, we propose that reduced expression of TG2 in differentiating APL cells may suppress effector functions of neutrophil granulocytes and attenuate the ATRA-induced inflammatory phenotype of DS. We used microarrays to detail the global program of gene expression underlying ATRA-induced differentiation of TG2 knockout NB4 cells. TG2 knockout NB4 cells were differentiated for 48 and 72 hours in the presence of ATRA and their gene expression profiles were compared to the wild-type cells at the same time points. Undifferentiated wild-type and TG2 knockout NB4 cells were used as untreated controls. Three biological replicates each.

Project description:NB4 is a cell line model of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL).The t(15;17) translocation and consequent expression of the PML (Promyelocytic Leukemia Protein)/RARalpha (Retinoic Acid Receptor Alpha) fusion protein blocks differentiation at the promyelocytic stage.The PML portion of the PML/RARalpha fusion protein has a high affinity for the corepression complex, preventing RARalpha transcriptional activity. To induce complete remission in a high proportion of patients, a pharmacological dose of ATRA is required to destabilize this interaction and re-establish the differentiation program.

Project description:The aim of this study is to identify microRNAs (miRNAs) transcriptionnally regulated by retinoic acid (RA). For that purpose we have used the RA-based treatment of the Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia (APL) as a model. This malignancy is characterised by a differentiation arrest of granulopoiesis at the promyelocytic stage. APL is molecularly associated with reciprocal translocations that always involve the retinoic acid receptor a (RARa). In the vast majority of APL cases, a t(15;17) chromosomal translocation fuses the genes encoding the promyelocytic leukemia protein PML and RARa. The resulting PML-RARa is a transcriptional repressor that impedes the expression of RA-regulated genes notably through an aberrant recruitment of transcriptional repressors and histone deacetylases. Consequently, these genes become insensitive to physiological doses (nanoM) of all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) but pharmacological doses (microM), overcome the PML-RARa-mediated repression and restore normal transcription and granulocytic differentiation. The restorative effects of RA can be reproduced in vitro in the NB4 cells, which were derived from an APL patient. These cells provide an excellent model to study the transcriptional deregulations that arise in APL and the molecular effects of the anti-cancerous RA-based treatment. We also used in this study the RA-resistant cells, namely NB4-LR1 and NB4-LR2 cells. The NB4-LR1 cells do transcriptionally respond to ATRA but do not maturate. In contrast, the NB4-LR2 cells show a clear defect in RA signaling, as they harbor a truncated form of PML-RAR protein that is not sensitive to pharmacological doses of RA. First, we plan to characterize miRNAs-repressed by PML-RAR. We reasoned that if some miRNAs are repressed by this protein, then pharmacological doses of RA should abolish this repression and lead to an increase in the level of expression of the corresponding miRNAs. NB4, NB4-LR1 and NB4-LR2 cells will thus be treated for 16h with ATRA (1 microM), and miRNAs profiles will be compared. We anticipate that, the expression of a potential miRNA-repressed by PML-RAR should be up-regulated by ATRA in both NB4 and NB4-LR1 cells but remain unchanged in NB4-LR2 cells. This expression pattern should in fact be similar to those observed for known RA-regulated genes, such as RARb, a well characterized target of the RARa and PML-RAR proteins. Importantly, this experimental procedure was already validated with the identification of a miRNA repressed by PML-RAR (patent Lecellier et al. #WO 2006/048553). MiRNAs candidates obtained will then be validated by chromatin immunoprecipitation using anti-RARa and anti-PML antibodies, followed by luciferase assays in presence or absence of ATRA.

Project description:ATRA was identified as a Pin1 inhibitor via fluorescence polarization-based high throughput screening. We performed microarray expression profiling to demonstrate the similarity between ATRA and Pin1 KD at the genome-wide level APL NB4 cells in response to ATRRA or inducible Pin1 knockdown for 3 days were collected for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We sought to validate in genome-wide level whether similarity occurred between ATRA and Pin1 knockdown-treated NB4 cells.

Project description:RARA haploinsufficiency is an invariable consequence of t(15;17) reciprocal translocations in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Furthermore, retinoids and RARA activity have been implicated in hematopoietic self-renewal, lineage commitment and neutrophil maturation. We and others therefore predicted that RARA haploinsufficiency would contribute to APL pathogenesis. To test this hypothesis we crossed RARA+/- mice with mice expressing PML-RARA from the Cathepsin G locus (mCG-PR). We found that RARA haploinsufficiency cooperated with PML-RARA, only modestly influencing the pre-leukemic and leukemic phenotype. Bone marrow from mCG-PR+/- x RARA+/- mice had decreased numbers of mature myeloid cells, increased ex vivo myeloid cell proliferation and an increased competitive advantage following transplantation. RARA haploinsufficiency did not alter mCG-PR dependent leukemic latency or penetrance, but did influence the distribution of leukemic cells; mCG-PR+/- x RARA+/- mice presented more commonly with low to normal white blood cell counts and with myeloid infiltration of lymph nodes. APL arising in these mice was responsive to ATRA, and had virtually no differences in expression profiling compared to tumors arising in mCG-PR+/- x RARA+/+ mice. These phenotypes were dependent on PML-RARA activity, since they were not detected in RARA+/- mice in the absence of the mCG-PR transgene. These data show that RARA haploinsufficiency (like PML haploinsufficiency and RARA-PML) can cooperate with PML-RARA to influence the pathogenesis and phenotype of APL in mice, but that PML-RARA is the driver of t(15;17) APL.

Project description:Many different molecular mechanisms have been suggested to be associated with PML-RAR dependent transformation of haematopoietic progenitors. Here, we investigated the role of PML-RAR and RXR in the organization of epigenetic structures at a genome-wide level. We identified 2722 high confidence PML-RAR binding sites in the leukemic model cell line NB4 and found PML-RAR colocalization with RXR to the vast majority of these binding regions. Importantly, these results could be corroborated and extended in primary blast cells of two APL patients. Through genome-wide epigenetic studies we show that treatment with pharmacological doses of all-trans retinoic acid ATRA induces global alterations in active H3 acetylation and repressive H3K27me3, H3K9me3 and DNA methylation chromatin modifications. However at the PML-RAR/RXR binding sites, ATRA only induces changes in H3 acetylation. These H3 acetylation alterations triggered by the loss of PML-RAR/RXR binding affect H3 acetylation and RNA polymerase II occupancy at nearby genes. Our results suggest that PML-RAR/RXR functions as a local chromatin modulator and that specific recruitment of histone deacetylase activities to genes important for haematopoietic differentiation, RAR signaling and epigenetic control is crucial to the transforming potential of PML-RAR/RXR. Examination of PML, RARa and RXR binding sites in leukemic cells before and after ATRA treatment, association with transcription via RNAPII occupancy and with chromatin modifications.
