Project description:Transcriptional effects of ETV6 inactivation in immature T-ALL were investigated by gene expression analysis upon siRNA-mediated knockdown of ETV6 in LOUCY cells, a T-ALL cell line with a transcriptional program highly related to that of immature T-ALLs. Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) of the ETV6 knockdown signature showed a significant enrichment in genes characteristically upregulated in ETV6 mutant immature T-ALLs including HOXA13, PRDM16, PTEN and CD33. 4 samples were analyzed: two biological replicates for each experimental group.

Project description:Anemia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in myeloid malignances. Cytogenetic changes are recurrent within malignant hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, yet their role in anemia pathogenesis remains unknown. One recurrent karyotypic abnormality in myeloid neoplasms is the deletion of part or all of chromosome 7 [-7/del(7q)], which harbors the transcription factor and tumor suppressor gene, CUX1. CUX1 knockdown mouse models develop myeloid disease similar to that seen in humans, including a spontaneous, cell intrinsic, and lethal anemia that develops with age. Here, we elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanisms by which CUX1 regulates erythropoiesis. We demonstrate CUX1 knockdown mice have an aberrant stress erythropoiesis response and decreased survival after acute anemia induction. CUX1 insufficient erythroblasts undergo accelerated cell cycling and increased apoptosis. In line with these phenotypes, transcriptome profiling indicates that CUX1-knockdown elicits increased proliferation and decreased erythroid differentiation gene signatures. ATAC-sequencing demonstrated dramatic, global chromatin opening in CUX1-knockdown erythroblasts. As measured by fluorescence lifetime imaging, this increased chromatin accessibility is concomitant with a disruption in nuclear condensation, which is normally requisite in mammalian erythroblasts for nuclear eviction and terminal differentiation. Finally, we show that CUX1 mediates chromatin compaction by promoting histone deacetylation. Thus, rather than a transcriptional role, our data implicate in an epigenetic regulatory role for CUX1 in erythropoiesis. Furthermore, these results suggest therapeutic targeting of epigenetic regulators, such as histone acetyl transferases, may have clinical benefit for the anemias associated with loss of CUX1.

Project description:Cyclin-dependent kinase 7 (CDK7) plays a critical role in the general regulation of RNA polymerase II-mediated transcription. However, the absence of selective CDK7 inhibitors has hindered the ability to investigate the consequences of acute and prolonged inhibition of CDK7 under normal and pathological conditions. Here we present the discovery and characterization of the first covalent CDK7 inhibitor, CDK7-IN-1, that has the unprecedented ability to target a unique cysteine residue located outside of the canonical kinase domain, providing an unanticipated means of achieving selectivity for CDK7 amongst the 20 known CDKs. Cancer cell line profiling indicates that a subset of cancer cell lines, including T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), exhibit 100-fold greater sensitivity to CDK7-IN-1 over other tumor and normal cell lines. Genome-wide expression analysis in Jurkat T-ALL indicates that CDK7-IN-1 disproportionally affects RUNX1 as well as other components of the TAL1 transcriptional network and its targets, downregulating key regulators of transcription and apoptosis critical for the T-ALL state. These oncogenes are encoded by short-lived mRNA transcripts, are associated with super-enhancers, and exhibit a strong dependency on continuous transcription for sustained expression. Therefore, pharmacological modulation of CDK7 kinase activity may define a method for the identification and treatment of tumor types exhibiting extreme dependencies on transcription for maintenance of the oncogenic state. Jurkat, MM1S, Loucy, and HeLa (WT and Dox-inducible CDK7 mutant) cells were treated with various drugs including a covalent inhibitor of CDK7 (CDK7-IN-1), a reversible inhibitor of CDK7 (CDK7-IN-1), Flavopiridol, Actinomycin D, and DMSO controls. Replicates are annotated.

Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MN) are a high-risk, late effect in cancer survivors with poorly understood pathogenesis. It has been postulated that, in some cases, hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) harboring mutations are selected for by cytotoxic exposures and transform. Here, we elucidate this model in the context of deficiency of CUX1, a transcription factor encoded on chromosome 7q. We report that CUX1 has a critical, early role in the DNA repair process in HSPCs. Mechanistically, CUX1 recruits the histone methyltransferase EHMT2 to DNA breaks to promote H3K27 methylation, phospho-ATM retention, subsequent γH2AX foci formation and propagation and, ultimately, 53BP1 recruitment. Despite significant unrepaired DNA damage sustained in CUX1-deficient murine HSPCs after cytotoxic exposures, they continue to proliferate and expand, mimicking clonal hematopoiesis in patients post-chemotherapy. As a consequence, preexisting CUX1 deficiency predisposes mice to highly penetrant and rapidly fatal therapy-related erythroleukemias. These findings establish the importance of epigenetic regulation of DNA repair and position CUX1 as a gatekeeper in myeloid transformation.

Project description:CUX1, a homeodomain-containing transcription factor, is recurrently deleted or mutated in multiple tumor types. In myeloid neoplasms, CUX1 deletion or mutation carries a poor prognosis. We have previously established that CUX1 functions as a tumor suppressor in hematopoietic cells across multiple organisms. Others, however, have described oncogenic functions of CUX1 in solid tumors, often attributed to truncated CUX1 isoforms, p75 and p110. Given the clinical relevance, it is imperative to clarify these discrepant activities. Herein, we sought to determine the CUX1 isoforms expressed in hematopoietic cells, and find that they express the full-length p200 isoform. Through the course of this analysis, we found no evidence of the p75 alternative transcript in any cell type examined. Using an array of orthogonal approaches, including biochemistry, proteomics, CRISPR/Cas9 genomic editing, and analysis of functional genomics datasets across a spectrum of normal and malignant tissue types, we found no data to support the existence of the CUX1 p75 isoform generated by an alternative transcriptional start site. Based on these results, prior studies of p75 require reevaluation, including the interpretation of oncogenic roles attributed to CUX1.

Project description:CUX1 is a HOX-family transcription factor that is essential for development and differentiation of multiple tissues. CUX1 is recurrently mutated or deleted in cancer, particularly in myeloid malignancies. However, the mechanism by which CUX1 regulates gene expression and differentiation remains poorly understood, creating a barrier to understanding the tumor suppressive functions of CUX1. Herein, we demonstrate that CUX1 directs the BAF chromatin remodeling complex to DNA to increase chromatin accessibility in hematopoietic cells. CUX1 preferentially regulates lineage-specific enhancers, and CUX1 target genes are predictive of cell fate in vivo. These data indicate that CUX1 functions as a pioneer factor to epigenetically regulate hematopoietic lineage commitment and homeostasis, and CUX1 deficiency disrupts these processes in stem and progenitor cells, facilitating transformation.

Project description:CUX1 is a homeodomain-containing transcription factor that is conserved, ubiquitous, and essential in vertebrates and invertebrates. CUX1 is mutated or deleted in high-risk myeloid neoplasms and solid tumors, resulting in haploinsufficiency and tumor growth. Here we provide the first analysis of endogenous, whole genome, CUX1 DNA binding. We demonstrate that CUX1 binds with transcriptional activators and cohesin at distal enhancers across three different human cell types. Haploinsufficiency of CUX1 altered the expression of a large number of genes, including cell cycle regulators, with concomitant increased cellular proliferation. Surprisingly, CUX1 occupancy decreased genome-wide in the haploinsufficient state, and binding site affinity did not correlate with differential gene expression. Instead, differentially expressed genes had multiple, low-affinity CUX1 binding sites, consistent with an analog model for CUX1 gene regulation. A machine-learning algorithm determined that chromatin accessibility, enhancer activity, and distance to the transcription start site are features of functional CUX1 DNA binding. Moreover, CUX1 is enriched at sites of DNA looping, and these loops connect CUX1 to the promoters of target genes. We propose that CUX1 is an analog transcription factor that regulates target genes through higher order genome architecture.
