A Cyclin D1-Dependent Transcriptional Program Predicts Clinical Outcome in Mantle Cell Lymphoma.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is characterized by the t(11;14)(q13;q32) translocation leading to cyclin D1 overexpression. Cyclin D1 is a major cell-cycle regulator and also regulates transcription, but the impact of cyclin D1-mediated transcriptional dysregulation on MCL pathogenesis remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to define a cyclin D1-dependent gene expression program and analyze its prognostic value.

Experimental design

We integrated genome-wide expression analysis of cyclin D1-silenced and overexpressing cells with cyclin D1 chromatin-binding profiles to identify a cyclin D1-dependent transcriptional program in MCL cells. We analyzed this gene program in two MCL series of peripheral blood samples (n = 53) and lymphoid tissues (n = 106) to determine its biological and clinical relevance. We then obtained a simplified signature of this program and evaluated a third series of peripheral blood MCL samples (n = 81) by NanoString gene expression profiling to validate our findings.

Results

We identified a cyclin D1-dependent transcriptional program composed of 295 genes that were mainly involved in cell-cycle control. The cyclin D1-dependent gene program was overexpressed in MCL tumors directly proportional to cyclin D1 levels. High expression of this program conferred an adverse prognosis with significant shorter overall survival of the patients. These observations were validated in an independent cohort of patients using a simplified 37-gene cyclin D1 signature. The cyclin D1-dependent transcriptional program was also present in multiple myeloma and breast tumors with cyclin D1 overexpression.

Conclusions

We identified a cyclin D1-dependent transcriptional program that is overexpressed in MCL and predicts clinical outcome.

Project description:ObjectivesThe positive expression of Cyclin D1 in immunohistochemical (IHC) staining serves as the cornerstone for diagnosing mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). However, existing literature does not conclusively establish whether the expression ratio and staining intensity significantly influence diagnostic outcomes or patient prognosis. In this retrospective study, the correlation between comprehensive Cyclin D1 quantification and the prognosis of MCL patients was studied.MethodsThe Cyclin D1 protein level was assessed in 120 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded samples from MCL patients using the quantitative dot blot (QDB) analysis technique. R language software was employed for statistical analysis to determine the optimal threshold with statistical significance. Additionally, Kaplan-Meier method was utilized to evaluate the relationship between the absolute level of Cyclin D1 protein and overall survival (OS) of patients. Furthermore, the Chi-square test was applied to analyze the causes of single and multiple fractures, with a significance level of p < 0.05. Finally, the Log-rank test was used to compare two survival curves, where a significance level of p < 0.05 was considered statistically significant.ResultsAt the optimized cutoff of 0.46 nmol/g, univariate analysis revealed a positive correlation between Cyclin D1 protein level and patient survival (OS). Specifically, in the subgroup with complete quantification of Cyclin D1 higher than the cutoff, the 5-year OS was 18%, whereas in the subgroup with complete quantification of Cyclin D1 lower than the cutoff, the 5-year OS was 4.8% (Log-rank test, P = 0.017). This indicates that patients with Cyclin D1 levels above the cutoff had significantly better overall survival compared to those below the cutoff. Additionally, in the Pearson distribution test, Ki-67 emerged as an independent prognostic factor for the complete quantification of Cyclin D1. Notably, Cyclin D1 complete quantification results remained unaffected by factors such as gender, age, LDH (Lactate Dehydrogenase) level, Ann Arbor stage(AAS), Ki-67, IPI(International prognostic index), MIPI(Mantle International prognostic index), and MIPI-c (MIPI Combined with Ki-67 Proliferation Index Chi-square test, p > 0.05).ConclusionsComprehensive Cyclin D1 quantification, especially above a threshold, significantly correlates with better overall survival in MCL. This highlights its prognostic importance in MCL management. Full quantification of CyclinD1 aids MCL prognosis, while QDB technology for biomarker quantification supports precise clinical prognostic stratification.
