Project description:Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive tumor, but a subset of patients may follow an indolent clinical course. To understand the mechanisms underlying this biological heterogeneity, we performed whole-genome and/or whole-exome sequencing on 29 MCL cases and their respective matched normal DNA, as well as 6 MCL cell lines. Recurrently mutated genes were investigated by targeted sequencing in an independent cohort of 172 MCL patients. We identified 25 significantly mutated genes, including known drivers such as ataxia-telangectasia mutated (ATM), cyclin D1 (CCND1), and the tumor suppressor TP53; mutated genes encoding the anti-apoptotic protein BIRC3 and Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2); and the chromatin modifiers WHSC1, MLL2, and MEF2B. We also found NOTCH2 mutations as an alternative phenomenon to NOTCH1 mutations in aggressive tumors with a dismal prognosis. Analysis of two simultaneous or subsequent MCL samples by whole-genome/whole-exome (n = 8) or targeted (n = 19) sequencing revealed subclonal heterogeneity at diagnosis in samples from different topographic sites and modulation of the initial mutational profile at the progression of the disease. Some mutations were predominantly clonal or subclonal, indicating an early or late event in tumor evolution, respectively. Our study identifies molecular mechanisms contributing to MCL pathogenesis and offers potential targets for therapeutic intervention.

Project description:Clonal heterogeneity and evolution of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) remain unclear despite the progress in our understanding of its biology. Here, we report a 71-yr-old male patient with an aggressive MCL and depict the clonal evolution from initial diagnosis of typical MCL to relapsed blastoid MCL. During the course of the disease, the patient was diagnosed with classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL) and received a CHL therapeutic regimen. Molecular analysis by next-generation sequencing of both MCL and CHL demonstrated clonally related CHL with characteristic immunophenotype and PDL1/2 gains. Moreover, our data illustrate the clonal heterogeneity and acquisition of additional genetic aberrations including a rare fusion of SEC22B-NOTCH2 in the process of clonal evolution. Evidence obtained from our comprehensive immunophenotypic and genetic studies indicates that MCL and CHL can originate from a common precursor by divergent clonal evolution, which may pose a therapeutic challenge.

Project description:BackgroundHigh-throughput sequencing allows the detection and quantification of frequencies of somatic single nucleotide variants (SNV) in heterogeneous tumor cell populations. In some cases, the evolutionary history and population frequency of the subclonal lineages of tumor cells present in the sample can be reconstructed from these SNV frequency measurements. But automated methods to do this reconstruction are not available and the conditions under which reconstruction is possible have not been described.ResultsWe describe the conditions under which the evolutionary history can be uniquely reconstructed from SNV frequencies from single or multiple samples from the tumor population and we introduce a new statistical model, PhyloSub, that infers the phylogeny and genotype of the major subclonal lineages represented in the population of cancer cells. It uses a Bayesian nonparametric prior over trees that groups SNVs into major subclonal lineages and automatically estimates the number of lineages and their ancestry. We sample from the joint posterior distribution over trees to identify evolutionary histories and cell population frequencies that have the highest probability of generating the observed SNV frequency data. When multiple phylogenies are consistent with a given set of SNV frequencies, PhyloSub represents the uncertainty in the tumor phylogeny using a "partial order plot". Experiments on a simulated dataset and two real datasets comprising tumor samples from acute myeloid leukemia and chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients demonstrate that PhyloSub can infer both linear (or chain) and branching lineages and its inferences are in good agreement with ground truth, where it is available.ConclusionsPhyloSub can be applied to frequencies of any "binary" somatic mutation, including SNVs as well as small insertions and deletions. The PhyloSub and partial order plot software is available from https://github.com/morrislab/phylosub/.

Project description:The normal counterparts of mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) are naive, quiescent B cells that have not been processed through the germinal center (GC). For this reason, although lymphomas arising from GC or post-GC B cells often exhibit plasmacytic differentiation, MCL rarely presents with plasmacytic features. Seven cases of MCL with a monotypic plasma cell (PC) population were collected from 6 centers and were studied by immunohistochemistry, fluorescence immunophenotyping and interphase cytogenetics as a tool for the investigation of neoplasms analysis, capillary gel electrophoresis, and restriction fragment length polymorphism of immunoglobulin heavy chain analysis of microdissections of each of the MCL and PC populations to assess their clonal relationship. The clinical presentation was rather unusual compared with typical MCL, with 2 cases arising from the extranodal soft tissues of the head. All MCL cases were morphologically and immunohistochemically typical, bearing the t(11;14)(q13;q32). In all cases, the PC population was clonal. In 5 of the 7 cases, the MCL and PC clones showed identical restriction fragments, indicating a common clonal origin of the neoplastic population. The 2 cases with clonal diversity denoted the coexistence of 2 different tumors in a composite lymphoma/PC neoplasm. Our findings suggest that MCL can present with a PC component that is often clonally related to the lymphoma, representing a rare but unique biological variant of this tumor.

Project description:While studies have identified a number of mutations in mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), the list may still be incomplete and contribution to the pathogenesis remains unclear. We analyzed the mutational landscape of four mantle cell lymphoma biopsies obtained during an 8-year period from the same patient with his normal cells serving as control; we also established a cell line from the final stage of the disease. Numerous mutations with high allelic burden have been identified in all four biopsies. While a large subset of mutations was seen only in individual biopsies, the core of 21 mutations persisted throughout the disease. This mutational core is also maintained in the cell line that also displays DNA-methylation and cytokine secretion profiles of the primary mantle cell lymphoma cells. This cell line is uniquely sensitive to clinically relevant inhibitors of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase. The response to Bruton Tyrosine Kinase's inhibition is enhanced by inhibitors of CDK4/6 and mTOR. Among the mutations seen in the primary and cultured MCL cells, mutations of three genes are involved in the control of H3K4 methylation: demethylase KDM5C, present already in the early disease, and methyltransferase KMT2D and cofactor BCOR, both of which are seen late in the disease and are novel and predicted to be pathogenic. The presence of these mutations was associated with hypermethylation of H3K4. Restoration of KDM5C expression affected expression of numerous genes involved in cell proliferation, adherence/movement, and invasiveness.

Project description:Mutations and epigenetic alterations are key events in transforming normal cells to cancer cells. Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), a non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of the B-cell, is an aggressive malignancy with poor prognosis especially for those patients who are resistant to the frontline drugs. There is a great need to describe the molecular basis and mechanism of drug resistance in MCL to develop new strategies for treatment. We reviewed frequent somatic mutations and mutations involving the B-cell pathways in MCL and discussed clinical trials that attempted to disrupt these gene pathways and/or epigenetic events. Recurrent gene mutations were discussed in the light of prognostic and therapeutic opportunity and also the challenges of targeting these lesions. Mutations in the ATM, CCND1, TP53, MLL2, TRAF2 and NOTCH1 were most frequently encountered in mantle cell lymphoma. Translational models should be built that would assess mutations longitudinally to identify important compensatory, pro-survival and anti-apoptic pathways and actionable genetic targets.

Project description:Ibrutinib, a bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor, provokes robust clinical responses in aggressive mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), yet many patients relapse with lethal Ibrutinib-resistant (IR) disease. Here, using genomic, chemical proteomic, and drug screen profiling, we report that enhancer remodeling-mediated transcriptional activation and adaptive signaling changes drive the aggressive phenotypes of IR. Accordingly, IR MCL cells are vulnerable to inhibitors of the transcriptional machinery and especially so to inhibitors of cyclin-dependent kinase 9 (CDK9), the catalytic subunit of the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) of RNA polymerase II (RNAPII). Further, CDK9 inhibition disables reprogrammed signaling circuits and prevents the emergence of IR in MCL. Finally, and importantly, we find that a robust and facile ex vivo image-based functional drug screening platform can predict clinical therapeutic responses of IR MCL and identify vulnerabilities that can be targeted to disable the evolution of IR.

Project description:SAMHD1 (sterile alpha motif domain and histidine-aspartate domain-containing protein 1) is a deoxynucleoside triphosphate triphosphohydrolase regulating innate immune and modulating DNA damage signaling. It plays an important role in the development of some tumors. SAMHD1 was also reported as a barrier to cytarabine, a common chemotherapy drug for mantle cell lymphoma (MCL), and as a biomarker of grim prognosis for acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) patients. However, SAMHD1 expression and function in MCL have not been well-defined. In the present study, we evaluated SAMHD1 expression by immunohistochemistry and its gene structure by Sanger sequencing in MCL. Our results showed that SAMHD1 was positive in 36 (62.1%) patients. Importantly, SAMHD1-positive patients were associated with lower chemotherapy response rate (p = 0.023) and shorter overall survival (p = 0.039) than SAMHD1-negative cases. These results suggest that SAMHD1 is an adverse biomarker for MCL patients, which is due to the high expression of SAMHD1 and rapid cell proliferation. These findings were confirmed in an in vitro study using the siRNA technique. Silencing the SAMHD1 gene in the MCL cell line Jeko-1 significantly decreased cell proliferation and increased cell apoptosis. The MCL cell line with SAMHD1 knockdown showed lower Ki-67 proliferation index, higher caspase-3, and higher sensitivity to cytarabine. Furthermore, for the first time, four previously unreported missense mutations (S302Y, Y432C, E449G, and R451H) in exon 8 and exon 12 of the SAMHD1 gene were discovered by sequencing. The mutations had not been found to corelate with SAMHD1 protein expression detected by immunohistochemistry. The biological functions of this mutated SAMHD1 remain to be investigated.
