Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is genetically characterized by the IG::CCND1 translocation mediated by an aberrant V(D)J rearrangement. CCND1 translocations and overexpression have been identified in occasional aggressive B-cell lymphomas with unusual features for MCL. The mechanism generating CCND1 rearrangements in these tumors and their genomic profile are not known. We have reconstructed the IG::CCND1 translocations and the genomic profile of 13 SOX11-negative aggressive B-cell lymphomas using whole genome/exome and target sequencing. The mechanism behind the translocation was an aberrant V(D)J rearrangement in three tumors and by an anomalous IGH class-switch recombination (CSR) or somatic hypermutation (SHM) mechanism in ten. The tumors with a V(D)J-mediated translocation were two blastoid MCL and one high-grade B-cell lymphoma. None of them had a mutational profile suggestive of DLBCL. The ten tumors with CSR/SHM-mediated IGH::CCND1 were mainly large B-cell lymphomas, with mutated genes commonly seen in DLBCL and BCL6 rearrangements in 6. Two cases, which transformed from marginal zone lymphomas, carried mutations in KLF2, TNFAIP3 and KMT2D. These findings expand the spectrum of tumors carrying CCND1 rearrangement that may occur as a secondary event in DLBCL mediated by aberrant CSR/SHM and associated with a mutational profile different from that of MCL.

Regulation of SOX11 expression through CCND1 and STAT3 in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:The neural transcription factor SOX11 is usually highly expressed in typical mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), but it is absent in the more indolent form of MCL. Despite being an important diagnostic marker for this hard-to-treat malignancy, the mechanisms of aberrant SOX11 expression are largely unknown. Herein, we describe 2 modes of SOX11 regulation by the cell-cycle regulator cyclin D1 (CCND1) and the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3). We found that ectopic expression of CCND1 in multiple human MCL cell lines resulted in increased SOX11 transcription, which correlated with increased acetylated histones H3K9 and H3K14 (H3K9/14Ac). Increased H3K9/14Ac and SOX11 expression was also observed after histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) or HDAC2 was depleted by RNA interference or inhibited by the HDAC inhibitor vorinostat. Mechanistically, we showed that CCND1 interacted with and sequestered HDAC1 and HDAC2 from the SOX11 locus, leading to SOX11 upregulation. Interestingly, our data revealed a potential inverse relationship between phosphorylated Y705 STAT3 and SOX11 expression in MCL cell lines, primary tumors, and patient-derived xenografts. Functionally, inactivation of STAT3 by inhibiting the upstream Janus kinase (JAK) 1 or JAK2 or by STAT3 knockdown was found to increase SOX11 expression, whereas interleukin-21 (IL-21)-induced STAT3 activation or overexpression of the constitutively active form of STAT3 decreased SOX11 expression. In addition, targeting SOX11 directly by RNA interference or indirectly by IL-21 treatment induced toxicity in SOX11+ MCL cells. Collectively, we demonstrate the involvement of CCND1 and STAT3 in the regulation of SOX11 expression, providing new insights and therapeutic implications in MCL.

CCND1 mutations increase protein stability and promote ibrutinib resistance in mantle cell lymphoma.

Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is characterized by the t(11;14) translocation, which leads to deregulated expression of the cell cycle regulatory protein cyclin D1 (CCND1). Genomic studies of MCL have also identified recurrent mutations in the coding region of CCND1. However, the functional consequence of these mutations is not known. Here, we showed that, compared to wild type (WT), single E36K, Y44D or C47S CCND1 mutations increased CCND1 protein levels in MCL cell lines. Mechanistically, these mutations stabilized CCND1 protein through attenuation of threonine-286 phosphorylation, which is important for proteolysis through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. In addition, the mutant proteins preferentially localized to the nucleus. Interestingly, forced expression of WT or mutant CCND1 increased resistance of MCL cell lines to ibrutinib, an FDA-approved Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor for MCL treatment. The Y44D mutant sustained the resistance to ibrutinib even at supraphysiologic concentrations (5-10 μM). Furthermore, primary MCL tumors with CCND1 mutations also expressed stable CCND1 protein and were resistant to ibrutinib. These findings uncover a new mechanism that is critical for the regulation of CCND1 protein levels, and is directly relevant to primary ibrutinib resistance in MCL.

USP9X Increased Tumor Angiogenesis in Mantle Cell Lymphoma by Upregulation of CCND1-Mediated SOX11.

Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive lymphoid malignancy with a poor prognosis. Ubiquitin-specific peptidase 9, X-linked (USP9X), has been associated with multiple physiological pathways and regulates various cellular activities. In this study, we explored the role of USP9X in MCL in vitro and in vivo. USP9X was verified to be increased in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of MCL patients and MCL cells. Moreover, CCND1 and SOX11 were also upregulated in PBMCs of MCL patients. The positive correlation between USP9X and CCND1, USP9X and SOX11, and CCND1 and SOX11 were identified. Further, USP9X overexpression and knockdown were performed in MCL cells. We proved that USP9X overexpression promoted proliferation and cell cycle and suppressed cell apoptosis in MCL cells. Upregulation of angiogenesis and cell migration were induced by USP9X overexpression in MCL cells. However, the USP9X knockdown showed opposite effects. In addition, USP9X was discovered to decrease Cyclin D1 (CCND1)-mediated SOX11 expression in MCL cells. We demonstrated that SOX11 overexpression reversed USP9X knockdown-mediated angiogenesis in MCL cells. Besides, tumor formation was inhibited by USP9X knockdown in mice in vivo. In conclusion, these results revealed that USP9X promoted tumor angiogenesis in MCL via increasing CCND1-mediated SOX11.

Case report: Composite mantle cell lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma.

Project description:Composite mantle cell lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma is very rare and the actual origin of it is still unclear. Here we reported a new case of composite mantle cell lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma and analyzed its molecular changes. Eight mutations were identified in its Hodgkin component through next-generation sequencing. In addition, we reviewed the published cases of composite mantle cell lymphoma and classical Hodgkin lymphoma and summarized the molecular changes of reported cases as well as the current case to explore the possible pathway of histogenesis.

A case of mantle cell lymphoma presenting with ascites.

Project description:Ascites with the finding of peritoneal carcinomatosis is considered an unusual presentation for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) and has been rarely described in literature. This case reflects the importance of cytological analysis of peritoneal fluid in a patient with intractable ascites not contributing from other comorbidities. In the event a bone marrow (BM) analysis cannot be made, this may serve as an alternative method for diagnosing MCL taking into consideration the good concordance between peritoneal fluid and BM cytological markers.
