Romidepsin and azacitidine synergize in their epigenetic modulatory effects to induce apoptosis in CTCL

ABSTRACT: We demonstrate that the combination of the HDAC inhibitor, romidepsin, and the demethylating agent, azacitidine, exerts synergistic anti-proliferative effects and induction of apoptosis involving activation of the caspase cascade in CTCL cell lines as well as CD4+ T cells derived from patients with SÃ©zary Syndrome (SS) with high tumor burden. We identified genes that were selectively induced by the combination treatment, such the tumor suppressor gene RhoB. We performed global CpG methylation-sequencing in a CTCL cell line and in patient cells. Results showed a subset of genes with a unique change in methylation profile in the combination treatment as compared to single drugs.

A probabilistic generative model for quantification of DNA modifications enables analysis of demethylation pathways [T-cells]

Project description:To characterize the largely unknown functions of oxidised methylcytosines (oxi-mC; 5hmC/5fC/5caC) in DNA, several sequencing protocols have been recently developed. Quantitative analysis is complicated because DNA methylation modifications need to be deconvoluted from the data which is affected by several experimental parameters, including e.g. imperfect bisulphite conversion, oxidation efficiencies, various chemical labeling and protection steps, and sequencing errors. Here, we present a hierarchical generative model, Lux, for integrative analysis of any combination of BS-seq and âoxi-mCâ-seq (BS-seq/oxBS-seq/TAB-seq/fCAB-seq/CAB-seq/redBS-seq/MAB-seq) data. We show that Lux improves quantification and comparison of methylation levels over existing methods and that Lux can easily process any oxi-mC-seq data sets to quantify all cytosine modifications simultaneously together with their experimental parameters. Application of Lux to targeted data from Tet2 knockdown ESCs and T cells during development demonstrates DNA modification quantification at unprecedented detail, quantifies active demethylation pathway and reveals 5hmC localization in putative regulatory regions. Examine the distribution of C, 5mC, and 5hmC in DP, CD4 SP, and naÃ¯ve CD4 T cells within selected loci. Half of the samples are measured using the traditional bisulphite-seq protocol but the other half is measured using the oxidative bisulphite-seq protocol (oxBS-seq).

RNA-seq analysis of vorinostat-resistant HCT116 cells following gene knockdown of GLI1 or PSMD13 with or without vorinostat treatment

Project description:Transcriptome analysis was conducted on vorinostat resistant HCT116 cells (HCT116-VR) upon knockdown of potential vorinostat resistance candidate genes in the presence and absence of vorinostat. Potential vorinostat resistance candidate genes chosen for this study were GLI1 and PSMD13, which were identified through a genome-wide synthetic lethal RNA interference screen. To understand the transcriptional events underpinning the effect of GLI1 and PSMD13 knockdown (sensitisation to vorinostat-induced apoptosis), cells were first subjected to gene knockdown, then to treatment with vorinsotat or the solvent control. Two timepoints for drug treatment were assessed: a timepoint before induction of apoptosis (4hrs for siGLI1 and 8hrs for siPSMD13) and a timepoint when apoptosis could be detected (8hrs for siGLI1 and 12hrs for siPSMD13). There are 42 samples in total, from triplicate independent biological experiments of 14 samples each.

Immune regulation by low doses of the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-azacitidine in common human epithelial cancers [methylation]

Project description:Epigenetic therapy is emerging as a potential therapy for solid tumors. To investigate its mechanism of action, we performed integrative expression and methylation analysis of 63 cancer cell lines (breast, colorectal, and ovarian) after treatment with the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor 5-azacitidine (AZA). Gene Set Enrichment Analysis demonstrated significant enrichment for immunomodulatory pathways in all three cancers (14.4-31.3%) including interferon signaling, antigen processing and presentation, and cytokines/chemokines. Strong upregulation of cancer testis antigens was also observed. An AZA IMmune gene set (AIMs) derived from the union of these immunomodulatory pathway genes classified primary tumors from all three types, into “high” and “low” AIM gene expression subsets in tumor expression data from both TCGA and GEO (GSE42284, GSE10893, and GSE26712 for the colon, breast, and ovarian samples, respectively). Samples from selected patient biopsies showed upregulation of AIM genes after treatment with epigenetic therapy. These results point to a broad immune stimulatory role for DNA demethylating drugs in multiple cancers. A total of 338 samples were analyzed.

Dissecting the dynamic changes of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine in T cell development and differentiation [CMS-Seq]

Project description:The discovery of TET proteins, enzymes that oxidize 5-methylcytosine (5mC) in DNA, has revealed novel mechanisms for the regulation of DNA methylation. We have mapped 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) at different stages of T cell development in the thymus and T cell differentiation in the periphery. We show that 5hmC is enriched in the gene body of highly expressed genes at all developmental stages, and that its presence correlates positively with gene expression. Further emphasizing the connection with gene expression, we find that 5hmC is enriched in active thymus-specific enhancers, and that genes encoding key transcriptional regulators display high intragenic 5hmC levels in precursor cells at those developmental stages where they exert a positive effect. Our data constitute a valuable resource that will facilitate detailed analysis of the role of 5hmC in T cell development and differentiation. Study the distribution of 5hmC in 7 T cell subsets at sequential steps of development, differentiation and specification

Identification of p38 beta as a therapeutic target for the treatment of Sézary Syndrome

Project description:Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphomas (CTCL) represent a group of hematopoietic malignancies that home to the skin and have no known molecular basis for disease pathogenesis. Sézary syndrome (SS) is the leukemic variant of CTCL. Currently, CTCL is incurable, highlighting the need for new therapeutic modalities. We have previously observed that combined small-molecule inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) β and glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) causes synergistic apoptosis in CTCL cell lines and patient cells. Through microarray analysis of a SS cell line, we surveyed global gene expression following combined PKCβ-GSK3 treatment to elucidate therapeutic targets responsible for cell death. Clinically relevant targets were defined as genes differentially expressed in SS patients that were modulated by combination-drug treatment of SS cells. Gene set enrichment analysis uncovered candidate genes enriched for an immune cell signature, specifically the T-cell receptor and MAPK signaling pathways. Further analysis identified p38 as a potential therapeutic target that is over-expressed in SS patients and decreased by synergistic-inhibitor treatment. This target was verified through small-molecule inhibition of p38 leading to cell death in both SS cell lines and patient cells. These data establish p38 as a new SS biomarker and potential therapeutic target for the treatment of CTCL. Hut78 cells were treated with 4μM Enzastaurin, 5μM AR-A014418, 4μM Enzastaurin & 5μM AR-A014418, DMSO, or no treatment for three days. RNA was extracted and hybridized to Illumina microarrays.

Individuality and variation of personal regulomes in human T cells

Project description:We surveyed the variation and dynamics of active regulatory elements genome-wide in CD4+ T cells, using Assay of Transposase Accessible Chromatin with sequencing (ATAC-seq) in longitudinal samples from healthy volunteers and during T cell activation. We created robust pipelines that enable accurate single molecule counting and allelic discrimination from clinical material. Over 4000 regulatory elements (7.2%) showed reproducible personal variation in activity. Gender was the most significant attributable source of regulome variation. ATAC-seq revealed novel elements that escape X chromosome inactivation and predicted gender-specific gene regulatory networks across autosomes, which coordinately impact genes with immune function. Noisy regulatory elements with personal variation in accessibility are significantly enriched for autoimmune disease loci. Over one third of regulome variation lacked genetic variation in cis, suggesting contributions from environmental or epigenetic factors. These results refine concepts of human individuality and provide foundational reference to compare disease-associated regulomes. We examined chromatin structure using ATAC-seq in purified human CD4+ T cells in 33 samples from 12 healthy donors and 15 samples from 3 patients with cutaneous T cell leukemia (CTCL). For T cell activation (TCA) time course, CD4+ cells from healthy donor 1 isolated as above were stimulated with ionomycin (1 ug/mL) and Phorbol Myristate Acetate (PMA; 20 ng/mL) and collected at 0, 1, 2, 4 hours in duplicate.

Defective germline reprogramming rewires the spermatogonial transcriptome

Project description:Defective germline reprogramming in Miwi2- and Dnmt3l-deficient mice results in the failure to reestablish transposon silencing, meiotic arrest and progressive loss of spermatogonia. Here we sought to understand the molecular basis for this spermatogonial dysfunction. Through a combination of imaging, conditional genetics and transcriptome analysis, we demonstrate that germ cell elimination in the respective mutants arises due to defective germline reprogramming rather than a function for the respective factors within spermatogonia. In both Miwi2-/- and Dnmt3l-/- spermatogonia the intracisternal-A particle (IAP) family of endogenous retroviruses is de-repressed, but in contrast to meiotic cells DNA damage is not observed. Instead we find that unmethylated IAP promoters rewire the spermatogonial transcriptome by driving expression of neighboring host genes. In summary, defective reprogramming deregulates the spermatogonial transcriptome that may underlie spermatogonial dysfunction.
